eedless to say, skincare and whitening products from China are the best-selling. The fairer a woman is, the more popular she is. On the contrary, girls who appear to have a darker complexion find it..."Run away!"

The fifth demon opened its eyes and shouted, but then realized something was wrong. It looked around, "Where am I"

"Don't worry, we are safe now."

Since the fifth little demon opened its eyes, Ye Bufan's aura became somewhat wilted, "Now we are in Wanxiang City."

"Wanshang City How did we get here We were chasing the Soul Sword Sect before, weren't we"

The fifth little demon looked completely confused, with no idea what was going on.

To know that before being trapped in the underground cave, there was a powerful enemy ahead and pursuers behind, with no hope of escaping. How could he possibly end up here now

Ye Bufan shook his head. "Don't ask so much, just know that we're safe."

"No way, tell me what happened after that, how did you get us out of there"

The fifth little demon looked very anxious. She knew this disaster was her own fault. If she hadn't recklessly gone to get that Chaos Pearl, she wouldn't have attracted so many powerful cultivators from the Chasing Souls Sword Sect.

Since Ye Bufan managed to bring himself out safely, he must have paid a great price.

"Well, since you want to know, I'll tell you..."

"As you saw at the time, they had not only a Yuan Sheng but even a Yuan Zu level expert."

There's no way I could win a fight in this situation, so the only option is to run. In the end, I took out an ancestral talisman for escaping.

This is a family heirloom, priceless and invaluable. It can shatter any space or formation in a critical moment, a true life-saving artifact.

My father once told me, never use... unless it's a matter of life and death.

The fifth little demon widened her eyes: "Then we just ran to the City of Myriad Forms"

"It's not that simple. If I used my Invisibility Talisman alone, I could definitely run farther and escape the Soul-Chasing Sword Sect."

But we are only two people, and the effect is greatly weakened compared to before. We haven't even run far when the people from the Soul Chasing Sword Sect have caught up again."

"I'm sorry, this time I got you into trouble."

The fifth little demon looked ashamed.

Ye Bufan waved his hand: "We are comrades, there is nothing to be sorry for. I'm a man, in that situation, I can't just leave you alone."

"Thank you!" the fifth little demon said, her face filled with gratitude. "What happened next"

Ye Bufan sighed, his face pained.

Later, a primordial powerhouse from the Soul Chaser Sword Sect blocked my path and demanded I hand over my storage ring.

With a warrior like this, I have no chance of resistance. I can only hand over my storage ring. It's a shame about the Chaos Pearl I got earlier and all my own treasures.

But I didn't expect that, even after getting the treasure and those good things, he would still attack me. Luckily, my master arrived just in time and saved both me and you.

"Although they are from the Zhuihun Jianzong, they have not only one Yuanzu but also a dozen or so Yuansheng. Both my master and I were seriously injured in the fight, and we've just recovered. Our energy hasn't fully come back yet."

After that, he let out a long sigh and looked even more listless.

The fifth demon was shocked. An ancestor-level powerhouse, even the third level of the Chaotic Saint Realm didn't have one. The fact that they could escape even though they were injured was already very impressive, and they even brought him along.

"Xiaofan, I'm so sorry. It's all my fault. I made a mistake and caused you so much trouble..."

"It's not a big deal, I wouldn't say. It's just that my chaos pearls and the treasures in my ring are gone because of that damned old man."

Ye Bufan's face was pained, thinking about the ten chaotic orbs he had lost. This didn't require any pretense; it was truly painful.

"It's alright, it's alright. It's just the Chaos Pearl, isn't it I have one here."

The fifth little demon flipped her wrist, four chaotic pearls resting in her palm, "These are all yours."

Ye Bufan's expression faltered. He originally wanted to get one or two, but he didn't expect the little girl to take out so many at once.

"This... this isn't good, is it"

"What's the harm Without me, neither of us would get a single one. Besides, I caused the trouble, and you saved my life. Consider this repayment for your kindness."

The fifth little monster was very reasonable and saw the essence of the matter clearly.

If Ye Bufan hadn't mastered formations, they wouldn't have been able to enter the Zhui Hun Jian Zong's protective formation at all. If she hadn't rashly gone to capture that chaotic pearl with the mark on it, none of those things would have happened later.

"In that case, I'll take three."

Ye Bufan hesitated for a moment, took back three Chaos Pearls, and left one for the little girl.

He then pulled out a jade bottle, containing nine pills of Xuan Hua Dan, and handed it to the fifth little demon. "This pill is for you as well. You might find it useful in the future."

He has already consumed pills of this grade.

It's very useful for the bigger ones, but it's still helpful for little girls.

"Well, thank you!"

The fifth little demon didn't hesitate any longer, but his eyes were full of gratitude. "Xiao Fan, is it safe here Can I improve my strength here"

Of course, let's do it together.

Ye Bufan noticed that Kusuzi had returned. Since the old man was guarding outside, it was absolutely safe, so he didn't enter the Dragon King's Hall.

Two people began cultivating in the cultivation room, absorbing the chaotic energy from the Chaos Orb.

After about two hours, Ye Bufan opened his eyes. His aura had increased countless times compared to before, reaching the seventh rank of Emperor Yuan.

Having absorbed three Chaos Pearls only raised his level by a few minor ranks. The vast appetite of the Chaos Saint Scripture made him shake his head again.

The technique is indeed heaven-defying, but with such a huge consumption, I'm almost going to be unable to afford it.

Suddenly, an idea struck him. He remembered the woman in the Dragon King's Palace. He had absorbed three Chaos Pearls in two hours, while she had absorbed ten in just a few hours. Her speed was far beyond his own.

The most crucial point is that they are still in a dormant state, not fully operating their cultivation base. If they were to wake up, how strong would their power be

He shook his head and looked at the fifth little demon beside him. The Chaos Pearl in his hand had absorbed two-thirds of its power, leaving only a small portion remaining.

and his aura also surged significantly, reaching the ninth rank of the Emperor Realm. He was only one step away from the peak, the Emperor Rank.

Normally, this little girl is also a rare genius, second only to the Demon King of Ten Thousand Beasts. But now, she hasn't even absorbed one completely, which shows how powerful the Chaotic Scripture is.

Another hour passed, and the fifth little demon's aura suddenly erupted, directly stepping into the rank of a Primal Emperor. The chaotic orb in his hand turned to ashes, completely absorbed.

"Haha, I did it! I finally broke through to the first rank of Yuandi."

The little girl let out a cheer of excitement, but upon seeing Ye Bufan's sudden gloom, her smile faded.

Before, she had always regarded Ye Junxie as a target to chase. But after the battle at Zhuishen Sword Sect, she realized that this young man was the true monster.

Within the tunnel, he could slay powerhouses of the Yuan Saint level with a mere raise of his hand. His strength was evident, and it was likely that I would never be able to catch up to him in my lifetime.

"Don't worry about strength, improve it gradually, and you will definitely become stronger."

Ye Bufan patted the little girl's shoulder, "Missing for so long, shouldn't you report back to the family"ou"Shen Qiyue cast him a resentful glance, then burst into a delicate giggle that sent shivers down his spine. The sight of her two mounds trembling was enough to make his eyes swim."I..."Ye Bufan bec...
