Chapter 227: Okay

Chapter 227: Okay

Alex was walking up the cliff with both of his hands inside his tattered robes. It was still nighttime, however, dawn was soon approaching. Alex looked along the side of the cliff and saw nobody.

'Everyone must be sleeping peacefully now that they didn't have to worry about food and water anymore,' he thought. The walk uphill was steep, but it wasn't a problem to Alex.

There was a lingering pressure around him as he walked upwards that was slowly leaving him and his cultivation base was starting to return. Soon, his body was invigorated by the yang qi being released from the meridians and the pain and fatigue in his body slowly subsided.

Soon, the pressure stopped affecting him and his entire cultivation base came back to full. The first thing Alex did was looking into his storage bags and find a healing pill.

He didn't hesitate at all as he took out one of the true pills his master had given him when he left for the Tiger sect. Without even checking what pill it was, he ate it.

A wave of energy passed along his body as it found its way to his arms. A little energy was spent away when it reached the tattoo on his arm, but most of it still went to the broken bones and torn muscles.

Slowly, his arms were healed and were back to normal. Then, he got a set of information.

<You have consumed 'Body Restructure Pill'>

<Sun God's Divine Yang Body disintegrates everything>

<' Body Restructure Pill's energy aligns with your spiritual root>

<Excess energy turned into Qi>

<You have obtained 1,548,656 Qi>

"Ahh, finally," he said as his hands stopped hurting. He put his yang stones into his storage bag and reached the cave on the cliff. The two elders were slacking around as there wasn't anything to do.

As soon as they saw someone approaching, they focused back on their work. But when they saw that it was Alex, they lost their guards. "Is it time for you to leave, disciple?" the elder on the right asked.

"Yes, Elder," Alex said.

"Very well, let us call someone to take you back," he said.

"No need elder, I will call someone myself," he said as he took out the communication talisman and called his master. Her first reply was her telling him to just come directly to her, but once he explained that it had to do with the sect and the disciples down at the forbidden fields, she couldn't stay back.

From up above the cliffs themselves, she came down flying.

The elders were a little surprised to see that Alex had called the sect leader herself, but said nothing as they knew their relationship.

She looked at his tattered robes and asked worriedly, "Are you okay? Do you need pills?"

Alex felt warm in his heart hearing that. "No, Master, I'm fine. I called you to talk about the other disciples in the Forbidden Fields," he said.

"What about them?" Ma Rong asked. Alex explained everything exactly as he had heard from the 3 disciples and later from Song Zun himself. He let her know that Song Zun was actually a clone of someone that entered the Hong Wu sect in search of something, and that something was in the Forbidden fields.

Ma Rong listened in shock as she heard how the different disciples had come to be used by Song Zun to look for Yang Jade and in the end, how Alex killed him.

Her eyes went wide when she heard this. Even the elders beside her were shocked to hear that someone fought in the forbidden fields and actually managed to kill the other person.

"Are you… really okay?" Ma Rong asked softly.

Alex gave a soft smile and said, "Yes, master. I'm fine. I didn't let it drag me down."

"Good, Good. Come, let me take you back. Let the elders here take care of the other disciples," Ma Rong said.

"Okay,? master," he said.

"I will send a few elders here, make sure you get all the disciples out. If every single one of them were to die of hunger now, that wouldn't be fair to them. Their crime isn't worthy of death," she said.

"Yes, Sect Leader," the elders said.

"Come, let's go," Ma Rong said as she wrapped him with her Qi to pull him up.

"It's okay, Master. I can fly on my own," he said as wrapped his body with it himself. After not using Qi for 3 days, it felt like a dam had been opened as it all came flooding out.

Soon, he was hovering in the air, and both master and disciple were flying away. The Elders were shocked to see a disciple actually being able to fly.

"No wonder sect master took him as her disciple, he is so talented," one of them commented. They waited for more elders to arrive and once they did, they went down to the forbidden fields to call them back.

Alex was surprised to finally see the back of the sect leader's mountain. He had never been on this side of the mountain. It turned out, the back of the Sect Leader's mountain was actually part of the cliffs in the forbidden fields.

Finally, Ma Rong reached her home and flew down and so did Alex.

"Come in, tell me more about what transpired in there. I want to hear everything," she said.

Alex nodded and walked in. Back at the cave opening, he had only given them a general story about what happened, but in here, he told her everything.

He told her about the first day and how nothing happened, aside from the fact that a disciple tried to kill him, so he broke all of his arms.

Then about the second day and his meeting with the boss, Song Zun, and how he managed to kill him thanks to being able to use his spiritual sense for a few seconds.

"That bastard! I should've just crippled his cultivation like I originally wanted to. instead, I cared about what the other elders would say and just threw him in there for 2 months," Ma Rong said.

Alex nodded and finally, but reluctantly,? explained to her about his adventure on the other side of the river.

This had truly shocked Ma Rong to her core.
