Wu Fa’s current predicament was due to the same reason. When the man in black engaged Wu Fa, he had already begun continuously infusing energy into his Treasure Sword. Because the energy flow was extremely covert, Wu Fa only detected a part of it. The other part was secretly gathering within the Treasure Sword until it reached a point of immense power.

Even if Wu Fa hadn’t unleashed such domineering cultivation technique twice in succession, the man in black would likely have attacked him. Due to the restrained power, Wu Fa could easily overlook the hidden killing intent within the blade, giving the opponent a chance to strike.

By then, it wouldn’t be just about how much Inner Strength had been wasted, but even if a lot of Inner Strength was released to defend, it might still be too late.

As the two separated, a blinding wave of yellow sand swept around them. In the vast Desert, a trail of dust rose up.

Chapter 291: Life Essence Power

As Wu Fa and the man in black confronted each other, Lin Feng had already killed or injured several assassins.

Now, only three still robustly stood before Lin Feng. This situation doesn’t imply that Wu Fa was weak.

The cause of this was singular. It was because Wu Fa faced the strongest man in black among them, who might even be the leader of these assassins.

Wu Fa was unlucky, pulling the fiercest one.

Meanwhile, Lin Feng still hadn’t summoned his Demon Suppressing Sword. He faced his opponents with compassion, believing that if he started with the intent to kill, how would he be different from the butchers before him?

Yet this very notion often led him to be plotted against. Nonetheless, Lin Feng remained steadfast to his true self, calmly facing every ordeal.

As long as one’s heart remains unchanged, the Heavenly Dao is naturally fair.

The chubby uncle and the girl had arrived beneath the previous cliff. He took out a canteen from the saddlebag on his Spiritual Horse.

"Here, girl. You look severely dehydrated from being chased all this way." 𝗳𝚛𝚎𝚎𝘄𝕖𝕓𝕟𝕠𝚟𝚎𝕝.𝗰𝕠𝐦

While speaking, the chubby uncle recalled how she had previously collapsed due to exhaustion. He couldn’t fathom how such a delicate girl escaped from those men in black and appeared before him so smoothly.

Everything seemed a bit too coincidental, and his skepticism was not unfounded. As the Squad Leader of Illusion Sound Pavilion, he had to act prudently and carefully.

The principle that caution is the boat that sails well was something the chubby uncle understood.

The girl extended her slender hand, accepting the canteen the chubby uncle offered, smiling politely at him with an air of culture and grace.

After taking the canteen from the chubby uncle, the girl drank eagerly. After swallowing several gulps of water, her delicate features gradually relaxed.

"Thank you, uncle, for saving me,"

Her voice was gentle, like flowing clear water, while exuding a faintly intelligent charm.

The chubby uncle felt somewhat clueless in front of such a fragile girl. After coughing twice, he realized he didn’t have the energy left to converse with her. At this moment, the chubby uncle was wounded and needed immediate Breathing Control, but he lacked even the qualification to do so, as the backlash from forced Energy Transmission had exacerbated his injury, making any slight Energy Transmission further aggravate his condition.

Thus, he sat down with closed eyes to rest, hoping Lin Feng and the others finish fighting and return to save him.

At that moment, he felt a gentle energy flowing across his back, like a fragrant warm current or a hidden spring. This energy seemed imbued with strong Life Force, circulating unceasingly within the chubby uncle’s body.

Feeling a bit of recovery, the chubby uncle realized the girl had been behind him the whole time, using Energy Transmission to heal.

An overwhelmingly strong pale green energy shimmered, like the refreshing clear life fountain nourishing the chubby uncle, enriched with pure Life Essence Power, untainted with impurity, appearing the most pristine energy of existence, the essence of all life.

Seeing the girl healing him, the chubby uncle’s face blushed. It wasn’t suitable for someone his age to feel shy, yet inexplicably the feeling emerged.

The chubby uncle, experienced in handling affairs as the Squad Leader, having met countless people, certainly wasn’t harboring anything towards the girl but felt somewhat shame-faced.

The thought of being a manly figure who needed saving by someone chased down and extremely weak herself, yet risking it all to heal him, filled him with shame.

Recalling all this brought about the current awkwardness.

The girl, with a graceful voice, told the chubby uncle:

"Don’t move; I’m healing you using the Holy Light Technique combined with the Bihua Spirit Pond Water. Stay calm, so your condition can improve faster."

Soon after, the chubby uncle ceased his inner struggle, feeling a slight jolt in his heart.

Who exactly was this girl, with Bihua Spirit Pond Water, the Spirit Pond Water from the Heavenly Pool of the Giant Wood Clan, possessing immense life-repairing power?
