Chapter 545: Chapter 540 Dragon Sword Island

From this young girl, Ye Xuan could sense an aura of cultivation around that of a Half-step Martial Venerate. It seemed this girl was by no means ordinary.

"This place is called Dragon Sword Island, which belongs to the Spirit Light Domain," said the girl, holding a bowl of medicinal soup in her hands as she approached. "You must be a martial artist too. I’ve just checked your condition, and it’s a miracle that someone with such severe injuries is still alive."

The girl looked at Ye Xuan with some surprise. The meridians in his body were nearly all severed, many of his bones were broken, and even his internal organs were terribly damaged. Such extensive injuries would have killed an ordinary person long ago.

"It looks like I’m in luck, my life wasn’t meant to end here. Since heaven doesn’t want me dead, I’ll cherish this life all the more," Ye Xuan said with a light smile.

The girl’s gaze shifted slightly, evidently a bit taken aback by Ye Xuan’s nonchalant attitude, but she soon returned to normal. "How did you get hurt so badly? This doesn’t seem like it was caused by another person."

"It’s a long story; I encountered a bit of an accident."

Ye Xuan shook his head with a smile, naturally not revealing that it was the spatial turbulence that had injured him like this, as telling the truth would hardly be believable.

Seeing that Ye Xuan did not elaborate, the girl didn’t ask further. She quietly began to change his bandages.

In a short while, Ye Xuan’s wounds were mostly dressed.

Although this method of treating wounds wasn’t very effective for Ye Xuan, there was no doubt that the girl had helped him a lot since he had lost the ability to move.

From the girl’s mouth, Ye Xuan learned that her name was Lin Wan, a core disciple of Dragon Sword Island, which was a Fifth Grade sect of the Spirit Light Domain, dominating this region.

"I didn’t expect to be teleported so far away."

Ye Xuan couldn’t help but give a wry smile. The Spirit Light Domain was far from the Yunlan Domain; the distance between them was certainly not short. One was at the westernmost point of the continent, and the other at the southernmost. In normal circumstances, it would take Ye Xuan at least two months to travel such a vast distance.

"May I ask, did you happen to find any other injured people nearby when you rescued me?"

Although he didn’t hold out much hope, Ye Xuan still wanted to confirm whether Shen Luo had entered the spatial passage.

After pondering for a moment, Lin Wan shook her head.

"I only saw you floating in the water by yourself. That area is usually deserted, so if there had been others, they would have been found."

"I see..."

Ye Xuan’s brow furrowed slightly; it seemed that perhaps he was the only one who had been teleported.

"Your injuries are severe, and your meridians have suffered greatly, which may have damaged your foundation..." At this point, Lin Wan paused, then looked at Ye Xuan with some sympathy. "I’m afraid you may not be able to cultivate afterward..."

Ye Xuan was momentarily startled, then chose not to comment. He was well aware of the severity of his internal injuries. Indeed, for an ordinary person, this would spell the end of their path of cultivation, but unfortunately, he was no ordinary individual.

On one hand, being far from the Yunlan Domain left Ye Xuan feeling somewhat forlorn. Ling Qianxue and Nangong Yao were still there, and now that he had been teleported to this extremely remote Spirit Light Domain, it would be a considerable time before he could see them again.

However, this sentiment did not last long. Ye Xuan shook his head to dispel these thoughts. Having made enemies with the Emperor Xi Sect, even if he remained in the Yunlan Domain, he would constantly be in danger. Being able to come to the Spirit Light Domain was quite fortunate, and obviously, the reach of the Emperor Xi Sect did not extend here, nor would they suspect he was here.

Most likely, the Sound Saint and Ling Yu Saint believed he had perished in the spatial turbulence.

"Ye Xuan, are you alright?" Lin Wan looked at Ye Xuan, who appeared to be somewhat dazed, worrying that he had been upset by what she had just said and quickly asked in a low voice.

"I’m fine."

Ye Xuan smiled and shook his head, then slowly straightened up his body. Although his injuries had been very severe before, after nearly a week of recovery, he had regained some ability to move.

After taking some pills, some of his True Yuan had also been restored in his body. However, the amount was very small, almost negligible. To return to full strength, there was no telling how long it would take—most likely more than a month.

During this month, he would probably have to venture out as little as possible, as with his current strength, if he encountered any danger, he basically had no ability to fight back.

At this moment, a series of urgent knocking sounds suddenly came from outside the house.

"I’ll go take a look, your body still hasn’t recovered, rest well," Lin Wan instructed Ye Xuan, then walked out toward the sounds from outside.

Ye Xuan nodded, yet his gaze also turned towards the direction of the house’s entrance.

As the door opened, he saw a group of figures, most of them young, and although some of them had a faint air of arrogance on their faces, their aura was quite strong. Compared to the disciples Ye Xuan had encountered on Sky Demon Mountain, the quality of these individuals was truly terrifying, with the weakest among them being at the half-step Martial Venerate realm.

Indeed, Sects of the Fifth Grade in the Spirit Martial Continent were a different concept from the powers of the Fifth Grade in the Chaotic Sea Domain.

"It seems this Dragon Sword Island still has some power..."

Ye Xuan pondered silently. He hadn’t expected that a seemingly inconsequential power would be so formidable.

These individuals should all be core disciples of the Dragon Sword Island.

"Lin Wan, I heard you saved someone from outside a few days ago and brought them back. You’re quite bold, to bring a person of unknown origin into the sect so carelessly. What if he were a spy sent by another sect? Could you bear such a responsibility?"

Just as Ye Xuan was sizing up the camp, a somewhat shrill scolding voice suddenly rang out from the front of the crowd. His eyebrows slightly frowned, and following the voice, he saw a red-clothed woman at the forefront, watching Lin Wan with an air of superiority.

The woman had a stunning appearance, with a tall and fiery figure. Her voluptuous body was particularly well-endowed, and she was constantly surrounded by a group of young men, looking like the moon amid a host of stars.

The young people around her were all strong; the red-clothed woman herself was at the Second Grade Martial Venerate level, obviously with impressive talent.

Lin Wan looked at the red-clothed woman, apparently a bit angry but quickly suppressed the slight anger, whispering, "He was indeed severely injured. If I hadn’t saved him, he might have died. Besides, he can no longer cultivate, so he definitely couldn’t be a spy."

"Cannot cultivate? Then he’s just waste, why save him? Being reduced to waste, he might as well be dead," the red-clothed woman scoffed upon hearing this.

"Exactly, having such trash here is an eyesore, he’s simply dirtying our Dragon Sword Island’s turf. Throw him out quickly."

"Hey, those words are a bit too much, as the saying goes, ’ugly women to the useless man.’ Junior Sister Lin and this waste, wouldn’t they be a perfect match?"

"Hahaha, that makes sense, too much sense!"

The crowd echoed in agreement, then began to laugh unreservedly, mockery and disdain written all over their faces.
