Liang Yuhan drank a few sips of the medicinal soup, holding a knife and leaning against the tree trunk beside Lin Zheyu.

While resting, she kept a watchful eye on the surroundings to prevent any sudden attack from wild beasts disturbing Lin Zheyu's recovery.

After resting for half a day and regaining some strength, they resumed their journey.

Facing these powerful families, they couldn't afford to relax for a moment.

For several days in a row, they traveled relentlessly.

It wasn't until seven days later.

That they finally felt relieved.

"Once we finish this grilled meat, let's part ways here."

After finishing his grilled meat, Lin Zheyu suddenly said to Liang Yuhan.

As long as he carried Xiaohei by his side, it might attract the greed of others.

An innocent person could end up in trouble because of their valuable possession.

Lin Zheyu glanced at Xiaohei, who was happily grilling meat, not expecting that this beast, fat as a pig, would have such a significant background.

He made up his mind to find an opportunity to train Xiaohei, not letting it continue to idle away its days.

It needed to step up.

"Ah!"

Liang Yunhui couldn't help but ask, "Isn't Mr. Zhao going to Wuling City?"

The little girl had grown attached to Xiaohei, and the thought of parting made her a bit reluctant.

"I'm not going."

"Besides, staying with me might bring trouble to you all."

Lin Zheyu shook his head.

He still planned to go but not with them.

As one of the ten major cities in the Guanghua Domain, Wuling City was surrounded by several well-known sects and powers.

Lin Zheyu intended to explore Wuling City to see if he could find a suitable sect.

"Oh..."

Liang Yunhui replied softly, her mood somewhat downcast.

Although she felt reluctant, she understood the gravity of the situation.

She didn't know what kind of wild beast Xiaohei was, but being valued by the famous Pei Family of Ruyang City certainly indicated its extraordinary nature.

She and her mother's strength was too weak, and following Mr. Zhao would only hinder his progress.

If Mr. Zhao hadn't slowed down to accommodate them during their escape, the Pei Family might not have caught up with them.

"Thank you for everything along the way," Liang Yuhan said gratefully.

"You're welcome."

Lin Zheyu replied.

In his hand, he toyed with a pill he had found on a martial artist from the Pei Family.

The pill was orange-red, small, and emitted a rich medicinal fragrance.

When used in conjunction with the Secret Technique, its amplification effect was astonishing.

Besides this unknown pill, there were also some medicinal powders, poison powders, a few taels of gold, and some hidden weapons.

Unlike Lai Mao, Lin Zheyu didn't travel with all his possessions on him.

The man must have been guarding the marketplace. Upon noticing commotion, he chased after them immediately, managing to bring out over forty taels of gold, which was quite good.

All good things must come to an end.

After finishing the grilled meat and resting for a while.

Liang Yuhan and Liang Yunhui bid farewell.

Chirping~~

Xiaohei stood up straight, watching Liang Yunhui's departing figure with some reluctance.

But it only watched, without any intention of following them.

Xiaohei had been with Lin Zheyu for longer, not easily swayed by Liang Yunhui's treats.

"Get moving, don't just eat and sleep."

Lin Zheyu slapped awake the drowsy Xiaohei, who was lying on its back, ready to sleep.

Previously unaware of its potential, he had no opinion on Xiaohei's lazy lifestyle.

But now that he knew, he was determined to give Xiaohei some real work to do.

He couldn't let the little one waste its natural talent.

Hiss~~

Xiaohei opened its eyes, baring its teeth unhappily at Lin Zheyu.

Then it quickly ran away, climbing onto a distant tree, turning on its back to nap on a thick branch.

Lin Zheyu: "..."

"Forget it, once we find a place to settle, we'll train properly."

"We've suffered a great loss; this time I'll train Xiaohei hard and fully unleash its potential."

Lin Zheyu muttered quietly to himself.

After cultivating his Essence, Qi, and Spirit to their peak, because of Xiaohei, he provoked the Pei Family and was forced by their experts to use the Blood Boiling Secret Skill.

This led to him not only failing to break through his limits to gain Source Power, but also overextending his spirit, which hadn't fully recovered even now.

Lin Zheyu started pondering various ways to train Xiaohei.

Determined to train it hard, at least to shed all that fat.

On a distant tree.

Drowsy Xiaohei shuddered, opening its eyes.

It sensed a strong malevolent intent.

...

...

After parting ways with Liang Yunhui and her mother, Lin Zheyu's travel speed increased significantly.

Twenty-three days later, he arrived near Wuling City with Xiaohei.

This time, he didn't take Xiaohei into the market or inns, worried about drawing attention again.

As night fell.

In the woods.

Inside a spacious cave.

Lin Zheyu found this cave by chance.

Chirping——

Inside the cave, Xiaohei stood up straight.

It swung its paws, imitating Lin Zheyu's postures.

Lin Zheyu practiced the Wild Bull Fist, while Xiaohei learned the Wild Bull Claw.

It learned impressively well, even more talented than many human martial artists.

An hour later.

Xiaohei stopped, spread out in a big X shape, lying on its back.

It didn't want to try anymore.

It hated exertion.

It only wanted to eat and sleep, lazing its days away.

Bang!

Suddenly, a shadow struck, a huge fist pounding on its head with a dull thud.

"Get up, keep practicing!"

Lin Zheyu said coldly.

Xiaohei rubbed its head with its paws, baring its teeth in anger.

But seeing Lin Zheyu's mischievous gaze, it quickly forced a sycophantic smile and reluctantly continued its training.

It felt so pitiful.

It couldn't beat this two-legged creature.
