Chapter 55 A Hero Saves a Beauty

Her injuries were not light, but the situation was unclear, so she couldn't rush to heal her wounds. She struggled out of the door and saw someone by the stream, so she walked over and saw that person sitting on a stone by the shore, soaking his bare feet in the water, holding a fishing rod in his hand, and basking in the sun comfortably.

Although she was angry that the other party touched her body, she also understood that the other party was trying to save her. She suppressed her anger and said, "Thank you for your help, fellow Taoist. I am Li Derong, may I ask your name!"

Wang Hao had noticed her arrival a long time ago, but he was just waiting for her to speak first. He put down the fishing rod, stood up and turned around: "Fairy Li, are you awake?"

"Why is it you?"

"Yes, it's me!"

"Oh, no wonder, it's you," Li Derong squeezed out a few words with her teeth clenched. After the first two contacts, she thought that the other party had become better, but she didn't expect that it was simply hard to change his nature. Thinking of her niece being burned by the other party during the Wangjialing fight, and later finding out about his reputation in the market, Li Derong had to suspect that he took the opportunity to do something while healing her wounds!

Wang Hao frowned when he heard her tone was wrong, and hurriedly explained: "Fairy Li, did you misunderstand something? I was just healing you at that time, and I didn't..."

Li Derong didn't listen to his explanation, and angrily said: "You know what kind of person you are. I was saved by you twice, and I, Li Derong, am not a person who repays kindness with enmity. I will let you go for now. I will definitely ask for your advice when I meet you someday!"

Wang Hao was speechless, thinking that he didn't think Li Derong was such an unreasonable person before, how could he become like this? Little did he know that he had touched the other party's reverse scale. If he hadn't been a jerk to help others bandage, his attitude would definitely have taken a 180-degree turn at this moment.

"You disappeared for two years, and have been here all the time?" Li Derong didn't want to say more to Wang Hao, but he still had to figure out the situation here.

Wang Hao nodded and said, "Well, I have been trapped here since two years ago! On the contrary, Fellow Daoist Li, how did you end up here!"

"I have my own reasons, you don't need to know."

Well, there is no way to talk about this. He originally wanted to tell the other party about the Ningyuan Fruit, and bring in Li Derong, who is extremely powerful in the ninth level of Qi training. The three of them should have a great chance of defeating the monster in the Jade Pond. Even if they can't kill it, they can steal the Ningyuan Fruit. Unfortunately, the other party is angry. If he tells the other party now, not only will he not cooperate, but there may be other waves. Wang Hao must get the seeds of the Ningyuan Fruit and can't take such a risk.

"Let's not talk about it for now. Fellow Daoist Li looks seriously injured. Let's go and heal first!" Wang Hao said lightly. The other party looked cold, and he was not a dog. They just lived their own lives. Waiting for Wang Yanfeng to come out of retreat, and then talking to her should be much better than talking to herself.

Li Derong wanted to find out the situation here and then heal her wounds in seclusion, but she felt sick when she thought about her body being touched. With Wang Hao's attitude, how could she be willing to talk to him?

He said bitterly, "Don't bother me, fellow Taoist," and went back to the wooden house, slamming the door shut as if to vent his anger.

"That's my room!" Wang Hao murmured, "What's the matter? Do immortal cultivators also like to make trouble?"

"Forget it, forget it, I'll build another house later!" Wang Hao shook his head helplessly.

Wang Hao rebuilt a wooden house and began to retreat again. It would take several years for the Ningyuan fruit to mature. The canyon map had been entered, and there was no way out. Naturally, he was not afraid of Li Derong leaving. He would leave it alone for a while and wait for her to calm down.

Although she was in seclusion, she only had one wooden house and no soundproofing formation, so she could sense the other party's movements. In the next few months, Wang Hao found that Li Derong would go out from time to time, sometimes coming back after three or two days, and sometimes for half a month. She was unwilling to be trapped here and went to find a way out.

The last time, Li Derong went out for a month and hadn't come back yet, "Oh no, this woman didn't go to the Jade Pond!"

Wang Hao stood up suddenly, and the two of them also went to the other side of the canyon to see that they only walked a few thousand miles and then there was no way. Li Derong hadn't returned for a month, so she could only go to the direction of the Jade Pond.

"She's really good at finding trouble," Wang Hao sighed helplessly, "We must go find her. If something happens to her, it will be difficult for me and my uncle to take down the fish monster!"

Wang Hao went out and saw that Wang Yanfeng was still in seclusion. He thought he was going to break through the ninth level of Qi training before coming out, so he didn't disturb him. He called the golden-eyed duck, and the man and the duck went to the Jade Pond.

Although the golden-eyed duck could not take him across the thousand-foot-high canyon, it could still do a frog-leap flight in a short period of time. Wang Hao rode the golden-eyed duck for a while, then put it into the spirit beast bag and walked with it for a while. The man and the beast took turns to rest, which was much faster than simply walking on foot.

Li Derong was not familiar with the terrain, and she was not as fast as Wang Hao in traveling. Wang Hao calculated that he should be able to catch up with her in half a month.

Five hundred miles away from the Jade Pool, Wang Hao's hurried steps suddenly stopped, and then he hurriedly called the golden-eyed duck to take him for a ride, because he found through the map that the boss of the Jade Pool had moved, and it was obvious who did it.

"Li Derong, you must not overestimate your ability," Wang Hao certainly knew that some powerful Qi training monks could cross levels to kill monsters, and Li Derong was very powerful, but the problem was that the fish monster was two levels higher than her. A monk from a small family crossed two levels to kill the enemy? Don't be funny.

On the other side, Li Derong was fighting with the fish monster. Her clothes were in disarray, and blood was faintly visible. Blood was also flowing from the corners of her mouth. It was obvious that she had suffered a great loss.

She had finished healing her wounds a few days ago, but when she went out, she found that Wang Hao was in seclusion, so she started to explore a way out.

She didn’t get anything in the first few times, but she knew that the canyon was relatively safe, and the other side of the canyon would soon end. After being fully prepared, she headed for this side.

She had been moving forward for more than a month, but she couldn’t see the end. She was about to give up. When she thought about asking Wang Hao after returning, she saw his expression and persisted.

Today, she finally came to this pond. She was even more surprised when she found the Ningyuan fruit. She walked through the water without thinking, but she didn’t know that her movements had already alarmed the second-level fish monster.

The fish monster attacked her and seriously injured her. If it weren’t for the second-level amulet given by her family, it would have killed her. Now, let alone picking the Ningyuan fruit, even escaping from this pond has become a luxury.

Wang Hao rode the Golden Eyed Duck at full speed and could vaguely hear the sound of fighting. "It seems that he is not dead yet. He is really powerful! He has the capital to be arrogant."

Wang Hao also wanted to come down from the sky handsomely and save the beauty. Unfortunately, he was exhausted because of the rush, and the Golden Eyed Duck could not fly too high with people.

He even wanted to see what it would be like if Li Derong asked him to help.

But when they met, Wang Hao saw that Li Derong's red robe became dazzling under the rendering of blood, and he didn't care about personal grudges.

Yunyun shouted loudly: "Bold monster, you dare to hurt people in front of me, watch out!"

He acted with full momentum and scattered a bunch of talismans for free, which really attracted the attention of the fish monster. However, the first-level talismans were just tickling for the second-level middle-grade monster beast. They couldn't even break the fish skin, so there was no need to hide.

Boom!

A burst of explosions sounded, and bursts of water mist exploded.

Li Derong was not stupid. Seeing that Wang Hao had successfully attracted the fish monster, he hurriedly tried his best to escape.

When the mist dissipated, the fish monster realized that it had been tricked. Wang Hao was just standing far away and didn't come over at all, while the other prey was trying to escape. It was immediately furious, roared, and spit out a huge water ball to attack Li Derong.

If this was hit, Li Derong would be crippled if not dead.
