Chapter 543: Chapter 543 – Bath
Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales
The soft branches of the monsters could not withstand the impact from the wood fragment. In an instant, their bodies burst; mixed green liquid and blood, spraying everywhere.
It must be said that plant-type monsters had great vitality.
However, the Sweet Wormwood Monster was made from wormwood. In addition to the fact that the wormwood’s period of time as a monster was so short, it had stronger vitality than ordinary people.
After its body exploded, the two lifeless heads rolled on the ground.
Just like that, the two weak monsters died, but Wei Xiao Bei’s gains had reached the bottom and only given two evolution points to Wei Xiao Bei.
Such a low-level monster gave Wei Xiao Bei an extremely low return on his evolutionary points. A total of two measly points were gained, a number worth ignoring.
As he landed, Wei Xiao Bei extended his hand and propped up Xiao Bai Ling. Xiao Bai Ling was still dizzy and her body was a mess, covered in blood and the green liquid.
Wei Xiao Bei’s nose twitched at the horrible stench. Then, he noticed the scent of water vapor coming from the direction of Mt. Song. He did not stay any longer and picked up Xiao Bai Ling, moving in the direction of the smell.
Wei Xiao Bei’s current perception was at 40 points. Put simply, his five senses had reached a high sensitivity. His sense of smell, even if not comparable to a dog’s, he was still able to smell the thick scent of water vapor from a certain distance when there was a river nearby.
Before reaching the river, Xiao Bai Ling, who was being carried by Wei Xiao Bei, let out a groan and woke up.
Wei Xiao Bei couldn’t help but nod his head. Since Xiao Bai Ling had 14 points in awareness, she was able to wake up after fainting even faster than a normal person.
After all, the willpower branch attribute under the main attribute awareness determined a person’s tenacity and speed of recovery of a person’s mental strength.
What surprised him was that once Xiao Bai Ling woke up, she did not scream at all. Her eyes remained closed, but her rough breathing gave it away.
She was frightened as she did not understand what kind of situation she was in, but to give herself the best chance, she had to force herself to calm down and so she pretended to have fainted in order to confuse the enemy.
Wei Xiao Bei admitted that he had looked down on this girl.
Just being able to enter the Dust World was not bad.
Whoosh, whoosh. Up in front was a small creek. The creek water flowed and crashed continuously against the rocks. Beside it was a dense forest.
From this position, it was now possible to see some details of the faraway Mt. Song.
Mt. Song was composed of two mountains; Taishi Mountain and Shaoshi Mountain, with the Shaolin Temple located on the Shaoshi Mountain.
However, Wei Xiao Bei was flabbergasted. The top of Shaoshi Mountain was emitting golden light that shot everywhere. On the other hand, Taishi Mountain was emitting blue light.
Between the creek and the mountains was a dense forest with lots of trees.
Wei Xiao Bei pondered to himself. Most of the places in the Dust World were in ruins, while these places were protected by immense powers.
Examples of these were the Shing Wong Temple, the Local God Temple, and Bai Ta Hills. Even the desert of Cui Hu City was influenced by the sleeping Fire Dragon.
Accordingly, the Shaoshi Mountain had the Shaolin Temple, a millennium-old Buddhist Temple. It was reasonable for such a scene to occur.
The problem was the Taishi Mountain, and why it was emitting blue light.
However, there was not much information related to the Taishi Mountain in Wei Xiao Bei’s memory. Since he was unable to grasp anything, he decided to place this thought in the back of his mind.
“Still asleep? I should just throw you in the creek to wash. After removing the filth, you should be just right to boil and eat.”
Wei Xiao Bei carelessly spoke as he reached the creek. He then positioned himself to throw Xiao Bai Ling into the creek.
Xiao Bai Ling who was pretending to sleep immediately started to struggle.
“What kind of joke are you pulling? I feel cold just being beside the river. If you threw me in, wouldn’t you be killing me?”
“Awake?”
Wei Xiao Bei put down Xiao Bei Ling and smiled.
“It’s you!”
Xiao Bei Ling immediately stood up and was about to run away, but when he saw Wei Xiao Bei’s face, she immediately cried out in alarm.
When she woke up and was pretending to be asleep, she understood a bit of her situation.
She was currently being carried by someone and moving at a fast speed. The only thing was that she did not know if it was a bad person or a good person.
However, when she heard Wei Xiao Bei’s voice, although it was a bit familiar, she didn’t even try to identify it after being frightened by the words. At this time, when she saw the gentle and handsome face, she immediately recognized him.
It was the handsome man that she attempted to hook up with when she was a call girl. It was her first unsuccessful customer!
Xiao Bai Ling’s emotions suddenly became conflicted. She did not know if she should run, criticize the other party for startling her, or thank him for saving her.
Eh? Wasn’t I caught by two monsters?
Where am I?
Realizing that the other person really saved her, she suddenly felt uncomfortable and looked at her body, seeing that she was covered in a mix of blood and plant juice.
“Umm. Thank you for saving me.”
This was the first time Xiao Bai Ling encountered this kind of situation. Initially, she was venting at the door. Who knew that the next instant, she would be sent to this kind of place.
Her experience after that was a complete nightmare.
The originally gorgeous hotel was turned into ruins.
After panicking, she ran directly down the emergency staircase and out of the hotel. Finally, she was blocked by the two monsters and was unsure of the right direction.
Now that she realized she was safe, she started to calm down.
Xiao Bai Ling came to an understanding. Wei Xiao Bei had already known that she was awake and that she was pretending to have fainted, prompting him to joke about killing her.
The original hated image of Wei Xiao Bei in Xiao Bai Ling’s mind intensified, causing her heart to thump uncontrollably.
With that said, isn’t this person too handsome? Just his smile is enough to make me feel as if the sun is shining.
Naturally, Xiao Bai Ling had not entered the Dust World for long, meaning she had little experience.
In truth, boiling someone to eat was not an impossible thing in the Dust World.
If there was no food and one was extremely hungry, then it was truly possible.
Let alone boiling her alive, there might be even more terrifying ways to eat her.
“Don’t need to thank me. Just don’t curse me in your heart.”
Wei Xiao Bei chuckled. Then he took out a small porcelain bottle from his storage bracelet, giving it to her, “Drink it to replenish your blood.
Hearing Wei Xiao Bei’s words, Xiao Bai Ling could not help but blush. Before he saved her, she had cursed this insensitive man in her heart.
If it was not because of him, how did I come to this place?
This was a human habit. Pushing the responsibility onto others was something normal.
Even if Xiao Bai Ling was a college student, it was still hard to break free from this habit.
Luckily, Xiao Bai Ling was blaming herself a bit at this moment as she began to reflect.
She took the bottle he gave her and drank it, without questioning its contents.
After taking a sip, she became surprised.
The medicine inside the bottle was as bitter as Chinese medicine, but in the next instant, something warm flowed and spread throughout her body.
As the warmth flowed, the muddle-headed feeling after having lost blood and previously fainting, gradually disappeared. Even the coldness from the creek had been driven away.
She did not know that the medicine inside the bottle contained Chinese medicine mixed with World Tree Sap.
Wei Xiao Bei had proficient medical skills. The World Tree Sap could supplement life force and recover injuries. The ginseng in Chinese medicine could recover blood loss and also drive away the chill.
“Go take a bath in the creek first. Then come to eat something later.”
Wei Xiao Bei urged Xiao Bai Ling to take a bath, trying not to frighten her.
At hearing this, Xiao Bai Ling’s ears became red.
Take a bath in the creek?
Wouldn’t I be seen by this person? This is simply too embarrassing.
Seeing her not moving, Wei Xiao Bei frowned. As he thought about it, he understood Xiao Bai Ling’s train of thought and laughed involuntarily.
“You should go up the creek a bit then take a bath. Don’t worry, I won’t take a peek. If something happens, just shout and I will quickly rush over. I can guarantee your safety.”

Wei Xiao Bei smiled and pointed up the creek.
The flow of the river was a bit weaker a hundred meters up the creek. The trees there were extremely vigorous. Some of the small trees had even taken root in the middle of the creek.
Just like this, the tees and rocks covering the place created a natural cover.
Wei Xiao Bei was quite frank about it. Although Xiao Bai Ling was a bit shy, the mess on her body was very difficult to bear. Additionally, after drinking the medicinal water, the ginseng containing a lot of Yang energy, had caused her to feel a bit thirsty and hot.
Ok, the worst that could happen was being seen by him.
After mental calculation, she concluded that being peeked at by a handsome man was not the worst thing that could happen.
Carrying these strange thoughts, Xiao Bai Ling walked up the creek.
However, after walking a few steps, Wei Xiao Bei called her name. He did not say anything but took out some sportswear from somewhere and tossed it to her.
Xiao Bai Ling nodded her head and thanked him. She carefully carried the clothes, feeling grateful for his kindness.
She was quite cautious.
Xiao Bai Ling could not help but laugh involuntarily. She didn’t even know his name.
She smiled as her shyness completely disappeared.
