Lin Xiao and Ling Luo didn’t have the intention to stay in the Auction Meeting any further. After the last item has been presented, Ling Luo impatiently stood up and informed Lin Xiao: “I just remembered, I still haven’t bought some stuff. You go back first.”

It looked like Ling Luo was getting ready to seize the pill.

Lin Xiao didn’t follow him this time. Last time, an accident almost happened when he went with him.

Lin Xiao thought that it would be thrilling to watch Ling Luo bypass the ranks during the fight.

In fact, the difference wasn’t that big. A Huang stage cultivator would be fighting a Xuan stage one. However, Ling Luo would also, in the end, profit from a disaster. He used a Strength Pill to level up his power, but received a severe injury.

“Alright.” Lin Xiao nodded his head, and watched Ling Luo as he hurriedly left the place… Perhaps, he should head towards the area where Ling Luo would be healing his injury after the battle and wait for him? And it seemed that Ling Luo went into a forest in order to recuperate himself?

Lin Xiao didn’t take a lot of effort in finding the forest as he rushed in his search… Only that… The heck! This forest was huge!! What were the chances of Ling Luo and him bumping into each other?! He felt a deep pain in his ass, however he had no other way, plus he couldn’t start looking for Ling Luo now.

What if Ling Luo was still fighting and he distracts him with his arrival? What should he do then?

So, his only choice was to sit down somewhere nearby and wait for the proper time to leave.

While supporting his chin, Lin Xiao reflected that Ling Luo’s protagonist halo was very well justified. If he was the one who had to fight while ranking up, it absolutely didn’t mean he would be able to win.

“Hum!” Lin Xiao heard Huangfu Shan snort coldly, “How do you know if you don’t even try? You really lack bones.”

Lin Xiao: “…”

Huangfu Shan could not miss hitting his sore spot, indeed that is so.

A moment… Lin Xiao suddenly recalled something, “Didn’t you say a while ago that the Ling Luo in my Mind Space and the real one were exactly the same?”

“Correct.”

“What!!!?” Lin Xiao was suddenly shocked.

“What’s the matter?” Huangfu Shan asked, “Previously, the cultivation wasn’t at the same level. The Mind Space increased his power slightly, why are you so surprised?”

It was really unfair!

Lin Xiao suddenly felt that his future would be gloomy. And Ling Luo was about to break through.

It was still bearable to be abused every night by the fake Ling Luo, who was at his same level of stage, just slightly more powerful, but now Ling Luo would be breaking through the Xuan stage soon…

Which meant that… not only he had to escape from someone who had a higher cultivation than his, but was also more powerful than him because of the Mind Space?!

What was more saddening than this matter? If only he wouldn’t get more maltreated…

This pervert of Ling Luo could level up while fighting, but what about him?

Lin Xiao lowered his head, thinking: At least let’s try…

He has died countless times anyway, so he wouldn’t mind dying some more.

It would slowly become a habit.

{……}

Time flew by quickly.

Lin Xiao checked the sky and thought that it was almost time to get up and search for Ling Luo. However, barely a few steps later, he saw a figure running rapidly towards him. Lin Xiao opened his eyes wide, and carefully observed the other person’s appearance.

It was Ling Luo!!

However, before he could react, the rushing Ling Luo grabbed him and continued to run.

The whistling sound of the wind hit Lin Xiao’s cheeks. If it wasn’t for Ling Luo taking him, he wouldn’t be able to follow after him at all.

Other than the sound of the wind, Lin Xiao also smelled the faint odor of the blood coming out from behind Ling Luo.

It looked like Ling Luo has eliminated that cannon fodder already, and that he ranked up to Xuan stage too.

Lin Xiao didn’t say anything, and let Ling Luo drag him as he went wherever he was going to.

Fine… Actually, Lin Xiao didn’t have energy to open his mouth, because keeping up with Ling Luo’s pace was difficult enough already.

Finally, they stopped.

Eventually, Ling Luo was unable to keep on running. He spitted out blood and frowned as he tried to suppress the second surge of blood down his throat. He then stared at the panting Lin Xiao, standing next to him: “How can you be here.”

After almost dying, Ling Luo broke through and struck back at that person. However, he suddenly discovered the enemy’s family stamp. His heart didn’t feel well, so he had to leave the place while dragging his wounded body and assuming that the person’s clan would be looking for their kin not long afterwards.
