A gift returned ten thousandfold: I am the number one licker in all realms!

"We'll head deep into the desert to find the antidote for you. Once we find it, you'll be fine. Just stay here and relax."

Liu Yan looked at Luo Xing with gratitude, then lay back down on the bed. Of course, that was all she could do. She couldn't move more than a few steps. Even if she wanted to follow Luo Xing and the others, she wouldn't be able to take more than a few steps before becoming a burden.

He hadn't expected the young master to treat him so well. He had initially followed Luo Xing with ulterior motives, only wanting to obtain more of Luo Xing's treasures. He never imagined Luo Xing would treat him so kindly later.

"Thank you very much, sir."

After making some preparations, Luo Xing and the wild princess Lily wanted to head deeper into the Tager Desert immediately.

Before leaving, Luo Xing bowed deeply to the senior.

"May I ask your name, sir?"

The old man with the green beard spoke first.

"I have forgotten my own name."

"However, many years ago, I did have a title in the Black Capital."

He was known as the Ice Venerable.

As soon as the words fell, everyone was shocked.

Luo Xing was immediately shocked and couldn't help but widen his eyes as he looked at the other party, never expecting that the other party was actually the Ice Venerable.

Back then, the Ice Venerable was an absolute giant in Black Earth City, wielding ice-attribute spiritual power. He established the Zhao Family Merchant Guild, which flourished throughout the land, thanks to the Ice Venerable's presence. This is what led to the Zhao Family Merchant Guild's current status and position within Black Earth City.

Unexpectedly, the other party was actually a Venerable One.

Luo Xing is currently only a Guiyuan Realm expert, and the next step would allow him to reach the Emperor Realm. Above the Emperor Realm lies the Venerable Realm.

Venerable One, this is a realm that so many people dream of, and yet he stands right before me. However, judging from his aura, he is currently at most at the Emperor realm, and if he wants to advance again, it will probably take at least another year or two.

"My apologies, I never imagined you were the once-renowned Ice Venerable."

"Ha ha ha ha."

"It's just an empty name; I've almost forgotten what it is."

"I wonder if anyone in Black Soil City still remembers my name."

"I really miss the days when I dominated the battlefield."

"Alright, alright, you guys go ahead. If you come back any later, I doubt you girls will be able to hold on."

"Remember, you have a maximum of five days. If you don't return within five days, this girl will be in danger."

Luo Xing nodded and promised to return within five days.

If they don't return within five days, then they can just wait to collect the other party's corpse.

Without further ado, Luo Xing and the wild princess Lily immediately headed deeper into the area.

The deeper they went into the desert, the more intense the heat became, as if a giant furnace lay beneath the sand.

This reminded Luo Xing of the Flaming Mountain in Journey to the West.

This could not be the scattered flames from the furnace left behind by Laozi (the Supreme Lord Lao).

For a moment, Lili was also unbearably hot.

The two hurriedly circulated their spiritual energy.

They tried to resist the heatwave with their spiritual power, but if it continued like this, they would have to worry that they would soon be baked dry.

Could there really be any monsters in such a godforsaken place? We've traveled so far and haven't even seen a single scorpion beast.

They left again, I don't know how far, and after about a day it finally got a little cooler.

Suddenly, at that moment, a tornado appeared in the distance, heading straight for them.

"Oh no! Look over there, isn't that a sandstorm?"

Looking into the distance, the sandstorm rose into the sky, sweeping away many demonic beasts, and many towering trees were also caught in the sandstorm.

They could hardly help but suspect that if they were swept away by that sandstorm, they would be left with nothing but bones.

"Run quickly!"

"Hurry up, there's no time, run!"

The two immediately channeled their spiritual energy and hurriedly ran further away, unable to imagine being swept away by the sandstorm.

The two of them ran like madmen; if they were swept away by the sandstorm, they didn't know where they would end up. Finding the Flame Stone would be impossible.

However, the sandstorm moved much faster than they expected; their underground city was moving much faster than they were.

The sandstorm was getting faster and faster, and it was about to catch up with them.

A strong wind blew, and the two of them were struggling.

"My Lord Barbarian, this won't do. We're about to be caught up."

"Please think of a solution quickly."

"If this continues, it will be too late for us."

Luo Xing was covered in sweat. This was the only way now.

"Wake up, wake up, get out here right now!"

"You old man, I'm about to die. Hurry up, stop sleeping and get out here right now."

Luo Xing was calling out to the little thunder dragon sleeping in his dantian. He didn't know why the little guy had been sleeping for so long and hadn't woken up yet.

Now this is the only way. If they want to survive, they have to trust Little Thunder Dragon. If they rely on Little Thunder Dragon, they might still be able to live.

Luo Xing, in a fit of rage, began to curse loudly.

After Luo Xing had been cursing for a minute or two, the little thunder dragon finally opened its eyes slowly in its dantian.

The next second, the little thunder dragon ran out and immediately protected them in the center, curling up.

"Hehe, Master is here. You really scolded me harshly just now. I was sleeping and you woke me up."

"Little Thunder Dragon, hurry up."

"Protect us immediately, don't let this sandstorm sweep us away."

"Hehe, don't worry, Master, as long as I'm here, this sandstorm won't be able to do anything to you."

The sandstorm is moving so fast it's about to catch up.

The little thunder dragon channeled all its thunder-attribute energy, luring the two of them to the center, as if it had created a spirit array.

Lightning energy permeates this world, your world. The thunder dragon roars towards the sandstorm.

Finally, the sandstorm headed towards them, and the two of them were right in its center. The sandstorm's energy seemed capable of destroying everything; all living things nearby were swept away by it.

The little thunder dragon was channeling all its thunder-attribute energy, seemingly fighting against the winds of the sandstorm.
