Zhang Xinlan glanced at where the skeleton monster had vanished and said to Ye Tian, "This Demon Realm isn't the other world that mysterious person ntioned. It's just a na for the place where Dark Creatures live.
"Dark Creatures are brutal and bloodthirsty by nature, the public enemy of everyone on the Celestial Dragon Continent! The people of the Holy Land, in particular, loathe these Dark Creatures from the Demon Realm. Many great wars have been started by people from the Demon Realm.
"It's highly unusual for that skeleton monster to have a Soul Enhancent Potion and Black Obsidian. However, I've discovered that this person probably wasn't entirely from the Demon Realm. It's very likely he was demonized, but I don't know how."
Ye Tian knew next to nothing about the Demon Realm. This was also the first ti he had heard of the Soul Enhancent Potion and Black Obsidian from Zhang Xinlan. But these two items were truly heaven-defying. One could instantly boost a Six Veins cultivator to the Mid-Seven Veins Realm, and the other could tear open space for a direct escape.
Thinking of the Demon Realm, the na "Demon Dragon" surfaced in Ye Tian's mind. The War Dragon Divine Venerable and several other Divine Beast Race Leaders had fallen in the great war against this Demon Dragon. The Demon Dragon's power was truly terrifying.
And Ye Shixue had the Demon Dragon's Dragon Pearl inside her. 'Now that she's been gone for so long, I wonder what's beco of her. Has she been demonized, turned into a bloodthirsty fiend?'
Pulling his thoughts back, Ye Tian said, "We don't need to worry about the Demon Realm for now. The most important thing is to get back to the Imperial City. The sun will be up soon, and I'm sure Ye Bing Passing the Thunder Tribulation must have alerted many people.
"If the person you killed doesn't return after a while, soone else might co looking. It's best we leave as soon as possible!"
"Big Brother! Thank you! I can finally live like you all now! Since you're going to the Imperial City Academy, I'll leave for a while. I'll co back when you're ready to leave," Ye Bing said, coming up to Ye Tian.
"You're leaving? You look like a child right now. Where could you go?" Ye Tian said, looking at Ye Bing.
"Even though I look like a child, I'm an Artifact Spirit in human form. My power isn't low now, so I should be able to protect myself. Besides, I won't appear before others like this. I need to find a Land of Extre Cold to cultivate. Don't worry, Big Brother, I'll be fine!" Ye Bing said.
'Ye Tian felt a pang of reluctance. He had just helped him pass his Thunder Tribulation, and now he was leaving before they could even spend any real ti together. He knew Ye Bing wanted to leave because he didn't want to be a burden.'
"Ye Bing, do you really want to go cultivate right now? If that's the case, we don't bla you. But if you think it'll be inconvenient for us to bring you along to the Imperial City Academy, then we won't force you to stay," Zhang Xinlan said at that mont.
"You've misunderstood . After Passing the Thunder Tribulation, I need to cultivate to raise my Power Realm quickly. Following you is actually simple—I just need to return to the Profound Ice Pearl. It won't affect you at all. Do you understand what I'm saying now?" Ye Bing explained.
In truth, he did think it would be inconvenient to follow Ye Tian and the others. The Imperial City Academy was filled with powerful experts. Although he could hide in the Profound Ice Pearl, he couldn't stay in there for too long. For Ye Tian's sake, he could only endure this separation. 'Deep down, he definitely longed to be with Ye Tian.'
After thinking for a mont, Ye Tian said, "Since you have more important things to do, I won't force you to stay. But you must be careful and stay safe out there! This isn't the place to talk. Let's get moving!"
"Big Brother, give the Profound Ice Pearl! I won't go with you. I'm going to the Land of Extre Cold to cultivate right now. I'll appear before you when you're ready to leave the Imperial City Academy, because I've left a strand of my Divine Sense on you," Ye Bing said.
Ye Tian took the Profound Ice Pearl from his Storage Ring and said, "Ye Bing! I hope you're even stronger the next ti I see you. I'll still need your help! We're brothers, brothers for life!"
Ye Bing nodded, took the Profound Ice Pearl from Ye Tian's hand, and his entire body quickly entered it. Then, he vanished before their eyes.
'He didn't want to linger. If he stayed any longer, he might really not want to leave. His quick departure was a necessity.'
Ye Tian looked at Zhang Xinlan and asked, "Well, Ye Bing's situation is settled. How are your injuries? You're covered in bloodstains. Don't you want to wash up? We can't go back to the Imperial City like this!"
"My injuries are mostly healed, but I've used up too much of my internal Energy. It will take so ti to fully recover. I've been wanting to wash up for a while now. There's a waterfall about thirty li from here. That should be a good place to get clean!" Zhang Xinlan said.
"Then let's go now! And don't worry, I won't peek!" Ye Tian laughed, then his figure flashed and he flew off.
Ye Tian and Zhang Xinlan departed quickly. About the ti it takes for half an incense stick to burn after they left, two figures appeared in the sky. Both of them were at the Six Veins Realm.
"Looks like there was an intense fight here! The air is still thick with the sll of blood. We were a step too late. But to cause this much destruction... the people who fought must have been incredibly powerful," one of them said.
"That strange celestial phenonon in the sky earlier was bizarre! If you hadn't insisted on having a few more drinks, we would have definitely run into them! Now they're gone, so there's no point in staying. Let's head back! We still have to see if there are any talented students today!" the other person said.
The two quickly left. anwhile, Ye Tian and Zhang Xinlan had arrived at the waterfall. It cascaded down from a high mountain range, its roar imnse, its spray creating a magnificent sight.
Below the waterfall was a deep pool, perfect for washing off the bloodstains. Zhang Xinlan said, "Ye Tian, you wait here. No peeking. If you peek, I'll get angry with you. Even though we'll be husband and wife sooner or later, you have to respect until then."
"Don't worry, I understand," Ye Tian said simply, then turned his back. Zhang Xinlan's figure flashed, and she quickly arrived above the deep pool.
The water in the pool was crystal clear. Zhang Xinlan quickly began washing the blood from her body. Naturally, she had taken off her clothes, planning to change into a clean set when she got out.
Ye Tian, anwhile, sat on a large rock, thinking about Ye Bing's experience Passing the Thunder Tribulation. The skeleton monster in particular made him feel that this world was far from simple. The power of the Demon Realm's dicines was frightening.
Just then, a cry of alarm ca from Zhang Xinlan in the deep pool! Ye Tian was startled, but rembering she was still washing up, he didn't imdiately investigate.
But a few breaths later, Zhang Xinlan shouted again, "Ye Tian, quick! Co here! Ah!"
Her voice sounded like she was in danger. Without another mont of hesitation, Ye Tian's figure flashed as he rushed toward the nearby pool.
