I Pick Up A Bunch Of Attributes Novel - Chapter 279
279 This Is Really a Level Up Pool
“Who’s coming forward?”
Chi Yanli and Shuang Xueming looked at each other when they heard the demon fox’s question.
The reason for their hesitation was very simple…
It was too damn smelly!
!!
Even though Shuang Xueming had used his magical power to suppress this smell, he could prevent the smell from spreading out. In the area they were currently in, the stench kept surging as if they had fallen into a latrine hell!
“Why don’t I…”
Chi Yanli gritted his teeth.
Since he had already put on an act, he should just go all the way. He had appeared so grievous and heroic just now. If he did not do anything now, it did not make sense.
“I’ll do it!”
However, before he could finish speaking, Shuang Xueming had already rushed in to speak.
The son of King Han had a righteous expression and looked ready to go through hell and high water. “His Highness is in trouble. It’s just Yang energy. We should all do our best to contribute!”
In reality, it was not an easy task for Shuang Xueming to make this decision.
However, his earlier behavior was too “minus points”, be it in front of all the demon beasts or His Highness the Holy Son!
In fact, he had even embarrassed himself in front of his old rival, Chi Yanli!
Therefore, he had to think of a way to restore his reputation. At the very least, he had to salvage the Holy Son’s impression of him.
The demon fox Bai Xiao smiled. “Alright! Come over here!”
When Shuang Xueming came forward, she wagged her fluffy tail and a hint of nervousness appeared in her eyes. Before this, she had never thought that she would be doing such a crazy thing!
“Scheming against two Primal Core Realm grand demons and even His Highness the Holy Son!”
Every time she thought of Feng Xia’s plan, she felt shocked at how meticulously it was planned and how one event would lead to another. Bai Xiao could not help but feel a little suspicious. “Young master is so cunning. Can his true form be a fox as well… Hmm, the young master must be a fox! I just don’t know where he hides his tail…”
“Can I just stand here?” Shuang Xueming walked up.
“That’ll do.”
Bai Xiao nodded and raised her tail up high. She carefully activated her clan’s secret technique and began to draw Yang energy from Shuang Xueming’s body.
The so-called Yang energy was even harder to detect than ordinary spiritual energy.
Even Shuang Xueming himself could only feel his body tremble slightly, as if something had been taken away. However, when he carefully sensed around, it was as if nothing was missing.
“Every bit I get, I’ll divide it into ten wisps. Eight wisps for the young master, one and a half for myself, and half a wisp for the Holy Son…”
Counting silently in her heart, Bai Xiao continued to extract Yang energy from Shuang Xueming’s body. Most of it secretly flowed towards the shattered Primal Core not far away.
On the other hand, Shuang Xueming’s face turned pale at a speed visible to the naked eye—and this was even though he was already quite pale to begin with.
“Damn it…”
Gradually, Shuang Xueming could feel the loss of his strength. He gritted his teeth and glared at Bai Xiao. “Why hasn’t he recovered? It’s just a wound. Do you need so much Yang energy?”
Yang energy was not magical power nor cultivation.
Normally, one would find it hard to notice even when one used up a little.
However, once too much Yang energy was used up, it could easily weaken the body. It could even allow external evils to corrode the body, and make cultivation gradually become superficial!
Therefore, as his Yang energy was continuously extracted, Shuang Xueming finally reached a point where he found it unsustainable.
“The Holy Son’s soul is injured. During such treatment, it consumes more energy than treating physical injuries. If you’re unwilling to continue, you can stop at any time. However, all your previous efforts will be in vain.”
Bai Xiao only used one sentence to block Shuang Xueming’s retreat.
“Damn it…” He gritted his teeth hard and quickly made a decision. “Continue! But remember, if you can’t cure His Highness the Holy Son, this day next year will be your death anniversary!”
“Young master is indeed wise and divine. He even managed to predict Shuang Xueming’s reaction…”
Bai Xiao heaved a sigh of relief and continued to draw out the energy at a faster rate. “Every bit I get, I’ll divide it into ten wisps. Eight wisps for the young master, one and a half for myself, and half a wisp for the Holy Son…”
Of course, in order to avoid arousing more suspicion, she slightly adjusted the flow of Yang energy.
The amount of Yang energy that His Highness the Holy Son received increased by 10%.
…The stench that Shuang Xueming received increased by 20%.
“Blargh… Blargh!!”
Just as he was barely holding on, Shuang Xueming suddenly felt a chill. Then, the terrifying stench that could sting one’s nose suddenly intensified around him.
However, it was at this moment that the Holy Son’s aura finally stabilized. Then, it began to improve. Not long after, the big black pig’s body shrank very fast and reverted into the handsome young man from before.
Bai Xiao stopped when she saw the time was right.
Sensing the power which she had absorbed, she wagged her big tail in satisfaction.
If she continued, her tricks would definitely be discovered once the Holy Son regained consciousness. Therefore, she had to stop at the right time.
“Finally… finally…”
Unknowingly.
Shuang Xueming was already sweating profusely. Under the cold energy of his own body, the sweat condensed into frost again, wrapping a layer of ice around him and locking a portion of the stench inside…
However, before Bai Xiao said she was done, Shuang Xueming did not dare to move at all. He could only endure everything in silence…
Plop!
Almost as soon as Bai Xiao spoke, he fell to the ground weakly.
“I—”
At the same time, the Holy Son Ying Daoyi opened his eyes slowly.
A trace of doubt flashed across his eyes at first. Then, the last memory surged into his mind, turning the doubt into anger. “Xia Donghai… Well done! Really well done! You’ve surprised me again!”
Ying Daoyi suddenly turned around and instantly erupted with powerful strength. The Dao Platforms appeared behind his head, and the eight statues on the Dao Platforms combined into one, condensing into a divine spear that tore through the air!
He wanted to completely crush that asshole Xia Donghai into ashes!
He wanted to destroy that man’s physical body, as well his Primal Core and soul. Even his true spirit had to be obliterated so that his body and soul would be destroyed without leaving a trace behind!
“Your Highness, the bigger surprise is yet to come.”
However, the moment he launched the attack, a voice that he did not expect to hear suddenly echoed in everyone’s ears.
The Holy Son looked over in shock. He saw that at some point in time, Xia Donghai, who already had his Primal Core shattered and should be thoroughly dead… was looking at him with a smile!
His mocking expression seemed to be saying…
Your Highness, I bet you did not expect this!!
“You—”
In an instant, the Holy Son’s pupils constricted.
