Chapter 829: Chapter 22 Pu Yan Warrior_5
Xuan Yue glared at him and said, "Do we have to tell you everything we can do? Who said Ah Dai knows martial arts? He just has a bit more strength."
Moon Scar and the others had been practicing martial arts for many years. During the recent exchange between Ah Dai and Yan Shi, the aura and power demonstrated were far beyond mere strength, especially the faint White Battle Aura, which was a symbol of a martial arts master. Moon Scar pulled Yue Ji, who was about to ask questions, and gently shook his head at her. Miao Fei, feeling embarrassed, did not pursue the matter further. Xuan Yue leaned against the back of a chair nearby and fell asleep again. Soon, the carriage fell silent except for the rumbling of the wheels and the crisp sounds of horses’ hooves hitting the ground.
In just a short while, Ah Dai had simply adapted to some basic horse riding maneuvers. With Yan Shi’s help, he could now keep pace beside him.
Yan Shi, leading with Ah Dai, instructed his men not to follow too closely, then said, "Brother Ah Dai, I really appreciate you showing mercy earlier; otherwise..."
Ah Dai scratched his head and replied, "Brother Yan Shi, don’t say that. We don’t have any deep enmity; how could I hurt you? We just really needed to pass through the Noble Domain."
Yan Shi nodded and said, "It was my impetuosity to blame. But you see, our Pu Yan tribe has always held some hostility towards other races on the continent, which led to what happened earlier. However, since you are affiliated with the Tian Gang Sword Sect, there naturally shouldn’t be any problems, for the Tian Gang Sword Sect is a synonym for justice! Oh, right, brother, here, take this." Yan Shi then pulled a medicine pill, the size of a longan, from his chest and handed it to Ah Dai.
Ah Dai took it and asked, "Brother Yan Shi, what is this?"
Yan Shi grinned and said, "Brother, eat it quickly. This is our Pu Yan tribe’s secret injury-healing sacred medicine, the Injury Annihilation Pill. Its potency is very strong. You had to change your moves abruptly to avoid hurting me and even vomited blood; your internal injuries must be severe. With this, you won’t need to worry; within half a day, you should be totally fine."
Ah Dai held the Injury Annihilation Pill up to his nose, smelled it, and thought, then said, "Brother Yan Shi, this Injury Annihilation Pill is really precious! It contains ingredients like Star Grass, Tendon Clearing Fruit, and Azure Fall Flower, all of which are very expensive herbs. Are you sure you want to give it to me?" Having spent a year with Goris, Ah Dai had already learned to identify herbs by their scent.
Yan Shi was taken aback and said, "Brother, I didn’t know you knew about herbs! Only the Prophet of our tribe knows the exact formula for the Injury Annihilation Pill, but it seems like it does include the ingredients you mentioned. You were injured because of me; eat it, it will be very beneficial for your injuries."
Ah Dai nodded and said, "Thank you, Brother Yan Shi." After speaking, he peeled the wax coat off the Injury Annihilation Pill and swallowed it.
Yan Shi chuckled and said, "Brother, don’t be polite with me. Honestly, I admire your power. Growing up, there have been very few among my peers who could beat me. You’re the first. In the past, I was really too arrogant. Indeed, there is always someone better! Even now, I still get chills thinking about that last sword strike of yours."
After swallowing the Injury Annihilation Pill, a warm current immediately flowed towards his Dantian, quickly spreading throughout his body, indescribably soothing. The pain in his chest disappeared entirely, and the True Qi within him, stimulated by the medicine, became even more condensed. Ah Dai slightly adjusted his breathing and said, "The medicinal power of the Injury Annihilation Pill is really strong; my injuries are almost completely healed. Brother Yan Shi, actually my strength is not greater than yours. It’s just that the Tian Gang Sword is heavier than your knife, and I was possibly enhanced by Miss Xuan Yue with Support Magic, which is why I was able to win."
