Chapter 94: Chapter 94: Red Sand Blood Desert

“Xu Yang, kneel for me!”

Helan Xing, having gained the upper hand, let out a sinister grin and brought his palm down like a fan.

In that split second, a yellow shadow shot up violently, fast as lightning, giving Helan Xing no time to react at all.

“Ah~~”

He let out a miserable scream, retreating in utter embarrassment as a bloody gash was torn open on his back.

The one who struck was none other than Gouzi!

Gouzi glared at Helan Xing fiercely.

“A dog?”

Helan Xing’s eyes reddened, burning with rage. This made him feel utterly humiliated by a mere beast.

“Even a dog dares to wound me? Go die!”

“Enough!”

Tuoba Hongyu shouted angrily, stepping forward and blocking Helan Xing!

“Your Highness, you…” Helan Xing’s face was filled with grief and indignation!

“Shut up, get out of my sight!” Tuoba Hongyu showed no mercy at all!

“…”

Helan Xing gritted his teeth, filled with unwillingness. Tuoba Hongyu actually rebuked him for an outsider?

This made him even more stifled!

But faced with the overbearing Tuoba Hongyu, he dared not retort.

Everyone watching was shocked by what they saw!

This Qian outsider, and yet the princess values him so much?

What qualifications does he have?

At this moment, Tuoba Hongyu had no intention of dealing with Helan Xing at all.

The High Priest remained silent, and the guards didn’t move either.

The crowd watched in a daze as Xu Yang subdued the second Blessing Seed.

By this point, nearly half the young Barbarians had already received the blessing.

As for the rest, by the usual conventions, they no longer had any hope.

Just as Xu Yang succeeded in refining the second Blessing Elixir, the remaining Blessing Seeds began to surge restlessly, flowing toward the Barbarian God statue in a wave.

The blessing was about to end!

Seeing this, even though utterly exhausted, Xu Yang immediately, decisively bit through his tongue, forcibly igniting himself to shroud another seed!

Under the intense impact, blood spurted from Xu Yang’s mouth as he clung on desperately. Once the Celestial Refining Divine Tripod shredded the coercion of the Barbarian God on the Blessing Seed, he quickly used the Divine Tripod to suppress it tightly!

He was temporarily unable to muster the strength to refine the third one right away.

But he’d already taken control; he could refine it later.

“Are you alright?”

Tuoba Hongyu spotted Xu Yang’s condition and, heedless of everyone around, hurried over to support him.

Seeing this scene, Helan Xing’s eyes turned red with jealousy!

“Ahhhhh!!”

“What makes you worthy? Damn it, Xu Yang, you deserve to die!”

That was a goddess he didn’t even dare profane, and now she was so intimate with a Qian man, even initiating contact herself…

It made him nearly lose his mind!

“Let’s leave here first.”

Tuoba Hongyu swiftly escorted Xu Yang away.

The grand sacrificial ceremony had reached its end; all that remained was for the High Priest to announce what came next.

Whether she stayed or not was irrelevant now!

Most people still hadn’t figured out what just happened.

But at this point, it no longer mattered.

Among the Guo Wen Division, Zhao Mushen and Lv Xiu were also present.

The two exchanged glances upon witnessing the scene, each seeing astonishment in the other’s eyes.

“Looks like that kid really is an alchemist.”

“To be able to hold the High Priest and others completely immobile in this setting, and even make Tuoba Hongyu act like that…”

Xu Yang’s words from that night echoed in Zhao Mushen’s mind, making him gulp with difficulty!

What the hell is this guy?

Lv Xiu quickly composed herself and whispered, “When this ends, go find out more, and pass him the token.”

Zhao Mushen took a deep breath, nodding heavily. Deep in his eyes, a flash of divine light suddenly appeared.

Tuoba Hongyu’s actions left everyone staring in disbelief!

Helan Xing watched helplessly as his goddess left, supporting Xu Yang, finally unable to hold back and shouted at the High Priest, “How does a Qian have the right to seize my Barbarian Race’s blessing? I ask the High Priest to mete out punishment!”

Helan Xing was about to explode!

Watching that scene was a pain worse than death for him!

He refused to accept it!

The crowd stared in alarm, but no one dared to echo his outburst for now!

After all, this concerned Tuoba Hongyu!

Still, inside, many cheered Helan Xing on.

They couldn’t just let it go like this!

One after another, expectant gazes fell upon the High Priest!

The High Priest’s expression darkened; all of this was beyond his expectations!

But now that it had happened, so what? It was just a few blessings; it wouldn’t really change anything.

Punish Xu Yang?

Thinking of the benefit Xu Yang brought to the Barbarians, the High Priest took a deep breath and glared angrily at Helan Xing!

This bastard just wants to make me look bad.

Even though Helan Xing was among the top three of the Ten Blood Generals—a top prodigy—the High Priest was quite displeased at this moment.

“Helan Xing, how dare you act during the Barbarian God’s ritual? Who gave you the nerve?”

“…”

Helan Xing’s mind buzzed, blanking out, his eyes dazed!

What the hell is this?

I’m the true Barbarian here!

He wanted to defend himself, but faced with the High Priest’s icy gaze, his heart trembled, and all his words stuck in his throat.

Reason told him that if he dared talk back to the High Priest again, even as one of the Ten Blood Generals, he’d be punished!

Helan Xing was so stifled he almost vomited blood!

If Xu Yang wasn’t truly a Qian, he’d suspect this guy was the High Priest’s own son!

Why?

Helan Xing’s sadness was something Xu Yang couldn’t possibly understand.

He had no idea what was happening now. He was utterly drained, holding on by a sliver of willpower.

In a daze, all he felt was a soft body supporting him, staggering into an unfamiliar place!

It turned out to be Tuoba Hongyu’s bedchambers, which were filled with a faint, pleasant fragrance, clearing his hazy mind a little.

“Do you have any elixirs to restore Spiritual Power?” Xu Yang asked in a trembling voice.

“Yes!”

Tuoba Hongyu quickly took out two pills.

Xu Yang didn’t even look at them, swallowing them in one gulp and sitting cross-legged right there.

Tuoba Hongyu was filled with suspicion and astonishment, but could only wait for Xu Yang to recover.

Gazing at his pale face, she couldn’t help but recall the proposal from Tuoba Bowu and the others; her brows knitted slightly.

“To break through the Yin Realm, the amount of supreme yin spiritual objects he needs is greater than I did back then, even surpassing the first of the Ten Blood Generals, Tuoba Dajiang, by a third! What a martial monster!”

“Alchemy…”

I’m not worthy of him!

Tuoba Hongyu couldn’t help rubbing her face.

Proud as she was, the thought of inferiority just wouldn’t go away!

But if he could be tied to the Barbarian Race… maybe even bear his child, perhaps it wouldn’t be impossible?

Hiss!

Tuoba Hongyu bit her lip, instantly cutting off that thought—dream on, never going to happen!

If Xu Yang knew what Tuoba Hongyu was thinking now, he’d probably be terrified.

Seriously, don’t you dare get involved with me!

After a long while, Xu Yang recovered a little, exhaling a long breath.

The waiting Tuoba Hongyu couldn’t help but urgently ask, “Mr. Xu, did you really refine the Blessing Seed into a pill?”

Xu Yang glanced at Tuoba Hongyu. Since she’d already witnessed it, he couldn’t completely hide it.

“Not exactly.”

“Basically, I only forced the Blessing Seed into the form of a pill when I had no other option!”

“Pill-like, but not a real pill!”

Tuoba Hongyu’s red lips parted, her beautiful eyes wide with shock. No other option? Forced it into pill form?

Even if it’s only pill-like, that Blessing Seed is considered sacred in the heart of every Barbarian!

That’s something even fifth-rank alchemists and sixth-rank Pill Kings can’t manage!

Did you even hear what you just said?
