Almighty – Ch. 539

Divine Herb

The kid in white had a round, red face. He was roughly Xiaoqing’s age. His hair and eyes were black. He looked at Yang Tian and smiled.

Chubby dropped his jaw because he saw mist all around. “Catch him! He’s a Divine Beast!”

Yang Tian was elated to see Xiaobai again. He laughed.

Yuan Xia crouched down and touched Xiaobai’s hair. “Xiaobai…”

Chubby: “You know each other?!”

Yang Tian: “Xiaobai, have you seen Xiaoqing?”

Xiaobai scratched his head and chuckled.

A draft swept the group up. They arrived at the void Chubby just searched.

Xiaobai was still fond of sitting on Yang Tian’s shoulder. “Hehe, I brought Xiaoqing here when a bird beat him up.”

Yang Tian didn’t wake Xiaoqing since Xiaobai had Xiaoqing in recuperation. The herb leaves were obviously Xiaobai’s masterpiece.

Chubby looked around. “Where’s the midget old man?”

The emergence of a figure startled them.

Xiaobai drooled: “C-capture him. He’s a divine herb.”

The elder already defeated Xiaobai.

Yuan Xia and Chubby were stunned.

The elder was angry Xiaobai used his place as a shelter, yet tried to eat him.

The elder looked to Yang Tian: “You’re here…”

Xiaobai: “You can speak?”

Everyone looked at Yang Tian.

Yang Tian looked at the elder. “You have business with me, Elder?”

“I’ve been trapped here for ages and can finally leave.” The elder smiled.  “Can I take a look at the divine herb in your dimension?”

Yang Tian: How does he know I have a divine herb? Can he see inside Ancestral Dragon Ring?!

Everyone else’s eyes bulged.

The elder smiled. “You have the aura of a divine herb on you. I suppose you have been exposed to it for a long time. That’s how I can tell. If I harboured ill will, none of you could stop me.”

Yang Tian: Who is he?

The divine herb emerged. Chubby gulped. Xiaoji sweated. Xiaobai pinched her face. She smiled. Yuan Xia was surprised.

The divine herb instinctively walked over to the elder. “Elder.”

Yang Tian watched on vigilantly.

The elder looked to Yang Tian after examining the divine herb. “Why did you take so much divine water from her? Her Source is almost gone!”

“Ah.” The divine herb waved her hands frantically. “You misunderstand, Elder. Someone else extracted my Source. Had it not been for Brother Yang Tian here, I would already be dead.”

The elder gave Yang Tian an apologetic smile. “Sorry for the misunderstanding.”

Yang Tian shook his head: “There is no need to apologise, Elder.”

The elder turned back to the herb and smiled. “Not bad. I never thought I’d see my clan’s divine herb before I fade away. I can rest in peace now.”

The divine herb cried.

The elder caressed her head and smiled. “We all eventually die. I would be dead already if it wasn’t for humanity’s supreme cultivator back then.”

The group: Humanity’s supreme cultivator!

Yang Tian assumed the elder was referring to his ancestor.

The elder waved his hand. He planted the divine herb into the ground during her moments of confusion.

Xiaobai: “Old Man, what are you doing?!”

The old man wagged his hand and felt consoled the divine herb had friends. “Don’t worry. I need a successor, don’t I?”

Yang Tian awkwardly scratched his head. “Ahem, I apologise for the misunderstanding, Elder…”

The elder shrugged. “Guess we’re even…”
