Considering the huge gap in strength between the two sides, Ling Xiao was caught up within a few steps. He was not so lucky this time. After a burst of pain, the Inner Bead's light disappeared and countless tiny lines appeared on Ling Xiao's surface.
Cracks appeared on the surface of the Inner Bead!
Without enough time to feel sad, the last strike from the Great Martial Master Ranker struck him right in the head. If this attack was real, Ling Xiao would definitely die!
Looking at the oncoming attack, he wanted to mobilize his inner strength to defend, but he found that he could not even move a single finger. He could only watch as death approached.
I can't accept this!
Ling Xiao stared at the ferocious Great Martial Master, as if he wanted to carve his appearance into his bones.
"Bang!" The attack still fell, but Ling Xiao managed to avoid death. He looked at Gayaro, who suddenly appeared to block the attack. He wanted Gayaro to leave as soon as possible, but was unable to say a single word.
Facing Gayaro who risked his life to protect Ling Xiao, Great Martial Master who had already lost all sense of reason crazily bit at his body. Even though his body was badly mutilated, Gayaro still stood firmly in front of Ling Xiao, not moving an inch.
Ling Xiao slowly moved his fingers and finally released a black silhouette. The shadow became bigger and bigger, and very quickly it became a Savage Beast like Gayaro. This was the double silhouette Gayaro made when he was bored, it could only stay in the air for a short period of time before turning into dust.
Piracy Gayaro rushed up, and the unconscious Great Martial Master was unable to differentiate between the real and fake Gayaro, causing them to hesitate.
The real Gayaro immediately turned around and grabbed Ling Xiao, spread his wings, and started fleeing deeper into the Baka Mountains without any reason.
After flying for an unknown period of time, Gayaro, who was completely exhausted, and Ling Xiao fell into the forest together and fainted.
Ling Xiao was awakened by the cold. He only felt his entire body being cold and extremely uncomfortable. With his strong willpower, he got up from the ground, but did not find Gayaro's figure.
What about Gayaro? Could it be …
He shook his head, dismissed the bad thoughts, and began to check his condition. The Inner Bead was broken and was unable to use inner strength. There was not a single part of its body that was in good condition.
Ling Xiao stood up with difficulty. The most urgent matter now was to find Gayaro.
He consumed a few healing pills, and without waiting for his wounds to heal, he started searching the area through the blood stains. After looking around, he didn't even see Gayaro's figure. He only picked up an unconscious person … Little boy?
After eliminating all possibilities, the most impossible thing was the truth.
Ling Xiao picked up the unconscious child, walked to a relatively safe place and looked at it carefully. The child looked to be about six or seven years old. He had jet-black hair, snow-white skin, and there were many small scars on his hands and feet. There were even half a finger sized horn on his forehead.
He took out the medicine and slowly applied it to the little boy. When the medicine was applied to his shoulder, the little boy's chest heaved up and down, and he woke up.
When he saw Ling Xiao, he rushed over and shouted: "Ling Xiao! "Hurry up and leave!" Her golden eyes were filled with panic.
Ling Xiao awkwardly hugged Gayaro, who had suddenly turned into a child, and comforted him softly, "It's okay, we've successfully escaped. He won't be able to catch us."
Gayaro was stunned for a long time before waking up from the crazy fight. He looked at his hands and feet in shock.
"Do you know what's going on?" Ling Xiao asked gently.
Gayaro shook his head with a blank look on his face. He stretched out his hand. The power that had been wreaking havoc had disappeared. Not a single trace was left.
"Ling Xiao," Gayaro cried out in surprise. His tender voice seemed to carry a hint of weeping, "My strength is gone!"
After studying for a long time, he still could not find out why Gayaro had become a human and lost his cultivation for no reason. After calming the irritable Gayaro, Ling Xiao was vigilant of his surroundings and didn't sleep for the whole night.
Perhaps it was because he had slept soundly, but Gayaro's spirit was a lot better. He said that when he casually threw Ao Xiang and Long Yirann outside the mountain range into an open area, he had immediately flew back to find Ling Xiao, and coincidentally bumped into the old fogey's ruthless attack.
Ling Xiao was not good with words. He just silently remembered Gayaro's action of standing up and rescuing him.
After the wound had recovered a little, Ling Xiao placed Gayaro inside and started to look around for edible flowers and fruits to ensure that they wouldn't starve to death in Baka Mountains, and also to see if they could leave this place.
Unfortunately, Gayaro had already suffered heavy injuries at that time, and all he knew was that he had to take Ling Xiao and stay far away from that Great Martial Master expert.
Gayaro looked depressed and said listlessly, "It's my fault. If only I could have run outside. I wouldn't be stuck in this place."
Ling Xiao stayed in the void for who knows how long, and he understood the principle that it was better to stay safe when there was nothing. He comforted Gayaro on the other hand, "If we run outside, we might get caught by that old fogey. I think it's also good now, we can cultivate inside." After he could use inner strength, he discovered that due to his heavy injuries, his martial arts cultivation had already fallen back to the Qi Cultivation Eighth Level.
Just like this, Ling Xiao, with his Qi Cultivating Eighth Level, and Gayaro, who had lost their cultivation, lived and cultivated in the depths of the Baka Mountains. As Ling Xiao's martial arts cultivation increased step by step, their relationship also unconsciously deepened.
Two years later, in the depths of the forest outside the Baka Mountains, a robust looking seventeen year old youngster walked out. Beside him was a cute nine-year-old boy. Strangely, the boy had a pair of golden eyes.
From the moment they left the Baka Mountains, no one would expect just how much trouble they would cause within the Martial Arts Continent.
