Chapter 4018 Xia Qingying

"Lingxiao Immortal City?"

Xiao Wan'er was stunned for a moment, "Isn't that Lingxiao Sect's Domain?"

"That's right."

Ye Bufan nodded, then realized something was wrong, "Is this not Lingxiao Sect's Domain?"

He had recently gained a basic understanding of the Upper Heaven Domain. Supreme Saint Heaven was divided among the Five Great Sects' spheres of influence, and the territory was incredibly vast.

According to his previous estimate, it would take him at least a week, or even more, to travel from Lingxiao Immortal City to Tiansheng Immortal City.

Normally, he should still be within Lingxiao Sect's Domain.

Xiao Wan'er said, "Of course not. This is Xingyao Sect, very, very far from Lingxiao Sect."

"This…"

Ye Bufan was stunned for a moment. It seemed he had underestimated the power of the Void Realm turbulence; in just a short moment, it had carried him this far.

Thankfully, he hadn't gone beyond the Upper Heaven Domain, otherwise, he wouldn't be able to return for the Dan Wang Competition.

Then he suddenly thought of the Space Blade. The last time he tore through space, he fell unconscious and didn't have time to retrieve it.

He quickly looked around, but the room was empty, and he couldn't find the Space Blade.

Xiao Wan'er asked, "Young Master, what are you looking for?"

"I'm looking for my blade. Have you seen it?"

Ye Bufan didn't mention the name Space Blade, as treasures related to space were simply too precious.

He still didn't understand the situation, so he had to be cautious in everything.

"Are you talking about this?"

Xiao Wan'er flipped her wrist, and a short blade appeared in her palm.

"Uh…"

Ye Bufan stared at the short blade, his eyes instantly widening.

From its shape, it was indeed the Space Blade, but now it had become ordinary, without a trace of spatial energy.

He held it in his hand and confirmed repeatedly that it was indeed the Space Blade, but unfortunately, its energy was completely depleted. It was unknown when it would recover.

It seemed the spatial barrier of the Upper Heaven Domain was too stable. Two consecutive cuts, each time, required a huge price, completely exhausting the spatial energy stored over many days.

This made him want to cry without tears. He only had a few life-saving treasures; the Heaven-Slaying Arrow was destroyed before, and now even the Space Blade was unusable.

If he encountered an Immortal Emperor Peak-level expert again, he wouldn't even have a chance to escape.

Seeing his expression, Xiao Wan'er was a little puzzled and asked doubtfully, "Young Master, is it wrong? When I found you, this short blade was by your side."

"Right! Thank you!"

Ye Bufan nodded and put away the Space Blade, letting it recover slowly, though he didn't know when it would return to its previous state.

Regardless, she had saved him and returned the Space Blade, so he had to thank her.

The little girl smiled sweetly, "Young Master, I still don't know what to call you?"

"I am Ye Bufan."

Since he had left Lingxiao Sect's sphere of influence, Ye Bufan no longer hid his identity.

Xiao Wan'er said, "Young Master Ye, if you want to thank someone, you should thank my Master. She saved you, and she also told me to return the short blade to you."

"Oh! May I ask where your Master is? Please trouble you to take me to thank her in person!"

Ye Bufan was always someone who repaid kindness. She had saved his life, and he definitely had to repay this favor.

The little girl's expression darkened, and she stopped smiling.

"Master was injured by you and is still recuperating."

"Uh!"

Ye Bufan was instantly dumbfounded, never expecting such a result.

"You said she was injured by me?"

"Yes, Master was originally in closed-door Cultivation, preparing to Break through to the Immortal Emperor Realm.

But at the critical moment, just as she was about to succeed, you suddenly appeared in the room and knocked her down, causing her to suffer Qi Deviation.

Now she is seriously injured, and it's unknown how long it will take for her to recover."

The more the little girl spoke, the sadder she became, and by the end, she looked as if she was about to cry.

"I…"

Ye Bufan was speechless for a moment. It seemed that every time he Transmigration through space, some unexpected situation would occur.

He originally thought this time would be more normal, but instead, something like this happened.

"Ye Dage, Master said it was just an accident, and she doesn't blame you."

Xiao Wan'er's expression changed quickly, and after finishing her story, she returned to her previous smiling face.

"Let's go. I'll take you to see Master now."

Ye Bufan followed the little girl, left the room, and soon arrived in front of a cave.

"This is where Master Cultivate in seclusion."

The little girl said, then opened the Restriction and led him inside.

Ye Bufan looked around. There were more than a dozen Restrictions arranged here, with an extremely high level of protection, making it difficult to enter from the outside.

He himself was there by a strange coincidence; the exact location where he tore through space happened to be here, which led him into her secluded cultivation chamber. It could be said that fate played a trick.

The stone cave was neatly arranged with several secret chambers. Xiao Wan'er opened the door on the left and walked in.

This was a place for Cultivation, without much decoration, only a bed in the center of the room.

On the bed lay a female Immortal in white, with beautiful features and eyes like a painting, just like a Fairy from a painting.

However, at this moment, her face was pale, and she looked sickly. Her cultivation was originally at the Immortal Venerable Peak, but now her Qi was incredibly chaotic.

Ye Bufan was slightly stunned for a moment, not expecting Xiao Wan'er's Master to be such a beautiful female Immortal.

Then he stepped forward and bowed, "I am Ye Bufan, thank you, Fairy, for your assistance!"

Xia Qingying, the chief disciple of Bao Dan Sect, was hailed as the greatest Genius since the Sect's founding. At just a thousand years old, she had already reached the Immortal Venerable Peak cultivation and was also an Eleventh-Order Celestial Alchemist, carrying the hope of the Sect's revitalization.

She herself was extremely diligent, dedicating all her time to Cultivation and Alchemy.

This time, she had been in seclusion for three months, aiming to Break through to Immortal Emperor cultivation, and then attempt to advance to a Twelfth-Order Celestial Alchemist, to shine brightly in the Dan Wang Competition and bring glory to the Sect.

As the three-month period was about to end, she had achieved great results, just a little bit away from Breaking through the Immortal Venerable Bottleneck and stepping into the Immortal Emperor Realm.

But she never expected that at the critical moment of her Breakthrough, a man would suddenly fly out of the Void Realm, directly knocking her to the ground, causing her to suffer Qi Deviation and all her previous efforts to go to waste.

Not only did she fail to Break through, but she also suffered severe internal injuries.

This made her incredibly disappointed and angry, but seeing that the man was severely injured and unconscious, it was clear that it wasn't intentional. Ultimately, her kind nature suppressed the anger in her heart.

She didn't kill him to vent her anger; instead, she called her disciple Xiao Wan'er to take him away for treatment, while she recuperated here.

According to her thoughts, if she could recover quickly from her injuries, there might still be a possibility of another Breakthrough.

But two days passed, and despite trying various methods, she still couldn't get rid of the trouble of Qi Deviation.

Her Meridians were damaged, and her Immortal Essence was chaotic. Now, she couldn't even display the strength of an Immortal King.

What shocked her, however, was that the man who seemed to be more seriously injured than herself was now standing before her, full of life and vigor.

She was furious that she had been harmed to this extent, her cultivation couldn't recover, and the Dan Wang Competition was ruined, yet the perpetrator was fine so quickly. She was originally a calm-minded person, but at this moment, she couldn't control her emotions and waved her hand angrily: "Get out, I don't want to see you!"
