Ethereal World: Vicious Cannon Fodder's Immortality Road - Chapter 756
Chapter 756: Xiang Liu’s Ancient Blood Chapter 756: Xiang Liu’s Ancient Blood In the end, Xiang Liu didn’t do anything to her.
He could only look at her with dissatisfaction.
In fact, if he hadn’t battled with her and had instead talked to her, he wouldn’t have had such enlightenment and experienced a breakthrough in his cultivation after hundreds of years of being stuck at the same level.
“Thank you very much,” he said awkwardly.
Shenlian Yingyue smiled faintly.
“If you need my help, I’ll do my best to assist you,” Xiang Liu said, not wanting to owe anyone a debt of kindness.
“It happens that I have a request that requires your help now,” Shenlian Yingyue stated, her gaze piercing and serious, with no hint of humor in her tone.
Xiang Liu sensed the gravity of the situation, so he stopped joking and waited for her next words.
“I want you to go to the Sacred Island and investigate something related to a person,” she said.
She took his silence as an agreement to help, so she proceeded to express her purpose.
Accessing the Sacred Island wasn’t easy.
Moreover, she had more pressing matters to attend to and couldn’t afford to linger there indefinitely.
Additionally, she needed to complete her tasks before the Demon Emperor made his return.
A sense of foreboding loomed over her, but she couldn’t articulate what might happen if she continued to postpone her responsibilities.
Xiang Liu reigned supreme over the oceans.
Given his status, even the forebears of the most powerful hermit clans had to show him respect.
Every sea had its own ruler.
However, when all the seas were united, the most formidable sovereign among them all was undoubtedly Xiang Liu, who bore the lineage of an ancient marine beast.
It was Xiao Yun who had enlightened her about Xiang Liu’s heritage.
It all made sense why he was so formidable despite his relatively young age.
Though his age did not exceed one thousand years, his strength rivaled that of the Ancient Stone Python, which had existed for more than ten thousand years.
“With your power and identity, you can access the Sacred Island easily.
I want to know what changed her and what happened to her during these years, and this requires your help,” Shenlian Yingyue said in a shallow but melancholy tone.
“Is that person important to you?” Xiang Liu raised one eyebrow.
When he was serious, he appeared very majestic.
“She is my friend, Su Lanfei,” Shenlian Yingyue replied, handing him a painting she had made of Su Lanfei’s appearance.
She had wanted to give her this painting a year ago but had never had the chance to do so.
Xiang Liu looked at the beautiful woman in the painting with a dark expression.
He hated female creatures; yet since he owed this woman a favor, he felt compelled to help her search for another female creature that he despised.
While Shenlian Yingyue and Xiang Liu spoke, no one noticed Huang Bai Xing’s black irises slowly turning golden.

Those golden eyes appeared to see through every disguise in the world.
If other cultivators had seen Huang Bai Xing’s eyes, they would have exclaimed in shock and excitement.
“Can’t you do it?” Shenlian Yingyue asked hesitantly.
“Piece of cake!” Xiang Liu glared at her, a blazing flame in his eyes.
After that, he disappeared.
Just then, he appeared again.
“Human, how do I contact you?” Xiang Liu asked, uncertainty creeping into his voice.
The last time he wanted to find her, he didn’t even know where she was, or her name and origins.
Shenlian Yingyue rummaged through the storage houses in the Ethereal Small World and finally found the communication stone she usually used.
Xiang Liu took out his own communication stone.
Both of them injected their spiritual power into each other’s stones and then pressed the two stones together.
They glowed with a faint light, as if responding to one another.
Afterward, Xiang Liu arrogantly transformed into a giant silver serpent and returned to the sea.
“You always surprise me.
How many powerful creatures do you know?” Huang Bai Xing marveled, speechless.
“I don’t know.
I can’t say I know him well since, last time, I fought Xiang Liu, and he nearly overturned the entire sea in his wrath,” Shenlian Yingyue shrugged her shoulders.
Huang Bai Xing replied, “…” No one could converse so calmly as this woman after facing such a fearsome sea creature in battle.
“Huang Bai Xing, last time I promised to go to the Twilight Forest and ask Wu Ying about your curse.
Let’s go now,” she said, leading the way.
“My father is on this island.
I can’t leave him alone,” Huang Bai Xing said, furrowing his brow.
“This island will be safe for the time being.
I’ll leave some of my companions here to protect him.” Shenlian Yingyue had already asked Xiang Liu to warn the dangerous sea creatures not to cause trouble near the island.
Huang Bai Xing hesitated.
“If you’re worried about him, you can stay.
I’ll go alone,” she continued.
In fact, she wanted to assess the situation on this planet and find a quiet place to hide in her small world to practice.
She needed to grow stronger to face the Demon Kings.
Huang Bai Xing didn’t respond, and Shenlian Yingyue left him behind.
“I’ll depart in three days.” Three days later…
The sun began to rise on the horizon.
Those who had gone without sleep diligently honed their spiritual powers day and night.
The energy in this place was potent and abundant, providing them with immense benefits.
In just a few days, with the assistance of medicinal pills and the pure spiritual energy they absorbed, their injuries had nearly healed.
They felt as if they had been reborn.
Who could have imagined that life could turn out like this?
Months prior, they had been engaged in a desperate struggle for survival, fighting to escape a living nightmare.
Now, they found themselves living in tranquility and comfort.
The environment was ideal for cultivation, with wild fruits to gather, beasts to hunt, and a pristine waterfall gracing the island, all enveloped in a sense of peacefulness.
Yet deep down, they all understood that this serene existence couldn’t last.
A bloody battle loomed on the horizon.
Although they wondered why no sea beasts or other dangerous creatures had come to trouble them, there was no time to ponder these uncertainties.
No one had answers to their questions.
On the seventh day, they committed themselves to their training, focusing on enhancing their skills and strengthening their powers.
While Shenlian Yingyue was busy outside, something happened in the Ethereal Small World.
