"Don't worry, nothing happened to Xi Meili. She endured her heavenly tribulation well." Yuan said.
"So I was the only one who ended up in such a pathetic state, huh…" she sighed.
"Don't put yourself down so much. Your case is special."
"By the way, I met with Bai Xutao." Yuan suddenly said.
"Y-you did? You didn't kill him, did you…?" she asked in a somewhat nervous tone.
"No, but I did punish him a little. I'll kill him later—when I visit the Heavenly White Tiger Clan."
"..."
Feng Yuxiang began pondering in silence. A moment later, she spoke, "Young Master, if it's not too much to ask, can you let me deal with Bai Xutao? I want to be the one to punish him properly."
Yuan nodded without hesitation, "If that's what you want. I won't touch him then."
"Thank you, Young Master… By the way, didn't Xiao Hua come with you to the Primal Expanse? Why is she so silent?" Feng Yuxiang suddenly asked.
"Now that you mention it…" Xiao Hua had been oddly quiet for the past two years.
"Xiao Hua, are you okay?" he asked her.
"..."
No response.
Yuan frowned at this and said, "Give me a moment to check on her."
He closed his eyes and entered his Dantian through his consciousness. Inside, he could see a small figure hugging her knees and curled up in a ball as she floated around aimlessly.
Yuan approached Xiao Hua's figure, but he didn't bother her. 'She's asleep… There doesn't seem to be anything wrong with her, but something feels off.' Yuan thought to himself.
He continued to examine her condition without waking her up. However, a few minutes later, as if she sensed his presence, Xiao Hua slowly began opening her eyes.
"Brother Yuan…?" she looked at him with a dazed face, seemingly still half-asleep.
"Xiao Hua? Are you okay?"
She gave him a slow and weak nod, "I think so… It's just that I have been feeling extremely sleepy lately… and I cannot fight it… I don't know why… I have never felt like this before…"
"Can I check your body?" Yuan asked with a worried face.
"Yes…"
Yuan gently pressed his fingers against Xiao Hua's wrist and used his spiritual energy to probe inside her body. Everything appeared healthy—she wasn't injured or ill. However, the flow of her qi was unusually slow, a condition typically seen when someone is in a weakened state, and their body is instinctively trying to conserve energy.
'Something is forcing her to conserve her qi, but what…?' Yuan was completely dumbfounded by her condition. He tried looking through the Evil God's memories since he was related to the Asura Clan. However, just like Tian Yi's life, there were bits and pieces missing.
"Something's wrong with Xiao Hua," he explained the situation to Feng Yuxiang. freewёbn૦νeɭ.com
