Chapter 92: Exploration (1/2)

Splash! Splash!

Lin Xiao happily ran around the area. The height for many places were not the same, so some area had water reached his knees while the others reached his thigh. However, it didn't hinder him from moving around in the slightest bit.

'Training is proven to be beneficial.'

Having to fight underwater had already increased Lin Xiao's stamina greatly. Added with the nutrition given to him from food, he knew for sure that he was getting stronger and stronger. However, he still had a long way to go if he wished to go against those powerful experts.

He was only on the way to their side little by little.

Splash!

There was no longer any fish around. Those had already returned back to their previous location. Lin Xiao headed back to his old house and saw a sorry sight. The house was covered in moss and there were several holes on the wall. Probably caused by the rocks that were thrown into the house.

”If I still want to live here, I will have to repair everything.”

Thankfully, Lin Xiao knew that he didn't want to stay there anymore. He opened the door and peered inside. The inside was also a mess and probably could no longer be used to live. Slowly, he walked inside and looked around, wondering what could have caused so much mess.

'Hm?'

As Lin Xiao looked down, he noticed that there was a different board on the ground. He had never paid much attention before because he always needed to fix the house from time to time. That fixing would make him add more woods and all.

The water that entered the house only up to his toes, which was barely negligible. However, there was a spot that was dry, as if it was above the water level. Lin Xiao crouched down and touched the panel.

”It's really dry.”

In astonishment, Lin Xiao tried to pry the edge. However, he found out that it was hard to move. He moved to the side and tried once more. This time, he felt the panel moved a bit but then he moved once more.

Creak!

The panel moved and Lin Xiao suddenly felt wave of Qi slapping his face. He was utterly stunned as he peered down and looked. What he saw was a small compartment that was filled with bottles and also message. From the way it looked like, the compartment had completely blocked the water from entering despite being submerged for so many days.

Lin Xiao frowned. He took out the message and realized that the recipient was his brother. He didn't want to read message for other people, so he simply checked the bottles there. It seemed to contain some valuable medicine.

”I'll just bring the entire box away.”

Lin Xiao closed it once more, making the box air tight. He then proceeded to pull the entire box out of the place and then put it inside his Spatial Ring. Looking at the space that was about to be filled with water, he noticed that there was something shiny on the ground. Without hesitation, Lin Xiao bent down and picked it up.

As he opened his hand, he saw a ring in his hand. ”Spatial Ring?”

Slowly, he urged his Qi to the ring and nearly fell down when he saw the content. The Spatial Ring was filled with so many herbs. Thinking about his foster parents' occupation, Lin Xiao let out a bitter smile.
