Transplant

Nameless Swordsman took out a pill flame stone and supplied it with a constant influx of spiritual energy to provide light on the dark night. As he watched Xiaoshuai in action, he questioned if he had lost his mind, entrusting Yu Die’s life to a rodent he nearly roasted when countless other impressive individuals surrendered. He kept convincing himself it was a chance worth betting on. Thankfully, Xiaoshuai’s adept actions eased some of the tension. Plus, Xiaoshuai looked excited and seasoned.

Like Nameless Swordsman, Mu Yu required constant reminders to relax but focus. Xiaoshuai smoothly extracted Yu Die’s heart and deftly transplanted Yuan Jian’s heard. He subsequently proceeded to reconnect her arteries with Mu Yu ensuring there was a sufficient flow of vitality. The vitality rapidly closed the laceration.

“All right, done. You just need to help heal the wound.”

Mu Yu lied back on his sweaty back and heaved a pent up breath. Besides being mentally exhausting, he also expended the majority of his spiritual energy. He considered draining vitality from trees, but Nameless Swordsman went over and transferred his spiritual qi to Mu Yu.

“He’s not heartless, thankfully,” Mu Yu uttered under his breath.

“I owe you a life,” Nameless Swordsman expressed in his emotionally-devoid voice.

“She’ll be all good and well after some rest. Mr. Deer, I’m still angry about you trying to roast me!” griped Xiaoshuai.

“What’s your name?”

“My name is Xiaoshuai. Xiao as in young. Shuai as in super-mega-ultra-hyper-deluxe handsome. Remember me!” Xiaoshuai wagged his tail as he stood akimbo.

“My name is Mu Yu.”Thi/s chapter is updated by nov(e)(l)biin.co/m

“If you ever need help with anything or anyone’s life, say the word, and I will see that it is done.”

“Nobody knows what the future holds. I’m content if you just don’t off us here and now,” remarked Mu Yu, thinking nothing of a promise others would treasure because nobody would know where to find Nameless Swordsman.

Drawing two big semi-circles with his arms, Xiaoshuai informed, “I’ll take several days’ worth of chicken drumsticks. Surely you’re rich if you’re so skilled.”

Mu Yu clobbered Xiaoshuai and glanced over to see Nameless Swordsman with his eyebrows pinched together.

Mu Yu passed by some business escorts and carts on his journey. There would occasionally be cultivators flying past them over the three days. By the third day, Xiaoshuai had gone through all of their rations and couldn’t stop crying he was hungry.

Mu Yu stored away their last roast goose in his Cosmic Sleeve to prevent it spoiling and asserted, “You need to limit your eating henceforward.”

“How is this great one going to survive now?”

“I’m the one who has to do the walking.”

“I’ve been cheering youown. I can’t cheer if I’m hungry.”

The duo crossed a mountain and found themselves at a foggy mountain valley. Xiaoshuai had a leaf overhead to provide shade and fanned himself with another leaf. To avoid the fog, Mu Yu planned to fly until he saw a stone tablet up ahead. The text on it read, “There is a celestial fiend fruit in the valley. Anyone who can obtain it will be rewarded handsomely. – Ageless Kumu.”

Despite reading the text several times, no inspiration came to Mu Yu.

“Hey, Mu Yu, celestial fiend fruits are edible, yeah? Does ‘... rewarded handsomely’ mean they’ll fulfil our wish? I want infinite chicken drumsticks, infinite roast geese and...”

“I feel like an apple.”

“A mere Golden Core Realm cultivator wants Ageless Kumu’s celestial fiend fruit? That must be the joke of the day.”

The Primordial Infant Realm youth in a yellow robe zipped past Mu Yu and into the valley.

“What was that?!” thundered Xiaoshuai, flashing his fist.

Despite nearly perishing in a valley once, Mu Yu’s pride led him into the foggy valley.
