1361 Training Together

"Look! This monster has a core!" Huang Xiao Li announced in an excited tone as she dug out a monster core from the magical beast they'd just slew.

"This is our second one today. How lucky." Tian Yang smiled.

They've been hunting magical beasts nonstop for the past month.

After killing a magical beast, they would sell its valuable parts to the merchants for money and keep the cores to boost their own cultivation.

As for the money they earned through selling magical beast parts, they would use it to purchase Appearance Reforming Pills and medicine. Any leftovers would be used to further boost their cultivation.

They would stop hunting at the end of every week to spend a day in a hotel in order to clean themselves among other things at night.

During this month-long period, Tian Yang increased his cultivation to the third-level Spirit Lord. Huang Xiao Li saw the biggest improvements, reaching the peak of Spirit Grandmaster.

When Tian Yang saw how fast Huang Xiao Li was advancing, it reminded him of his own lack of talent.

Despite most of the resources going towards him, Huang Xiao Li was still advancing faster than he did at her level.

It's been a little over two months since they started their journey to the Desolate Continent, and they have spent about a month and a half on the Desolate Continent itself.

"How long do you plan on staying in this place?" Huang Xiao Li asked him as they lay on the bed at the end of their love session.

"I applied for three months of leave, and I intended to spend at least a month training here," he said.

"Eh? In that case, you are already late since it will take us at least another month to return to the sect."

"I know."

"You're not worried about punishment? I heard they could be quite severe," she said in a worried tone.

"This won't be my first time staying outside the sect longer than I am supposed to, and I have a friend at the sect to rely on during such times. What about you? You're a fellow disciple, too."

"I requested four months of leave so I still have some time," she said.

"Even if I return to the sect late, my situation should give me some leeway."

Despite mentioning her family's situation, Huang Xiao Li only sounded a little melancholic, a testament to how much she'd grown since then.

"There is a ship sailing to and from the Desolate Continent at the beginning of every month, so we can leave in two weeks." Tian Yang said.

"What will you do once you return? Do you have any other family members at home?" he suddenly asked.

"I'm not sure, but I still have my grandparents," she said.

"How about your family?"

"I'm the only one left," he calmly said.

"Oh… I'm sorry."

"Don't be. In fact, I don't know anything about my real parents. According to the village I grew up in, I was abandoned there shortly after birth. I was adopted by a single mother who was living alone with her daughter, who became my sister. They were killed before I turned ten, and I have been living alone since then."

"That's…" Huang Xiao Li was shocked by his background, which she was learning about for the first time.
