Don't come over here. I don't want Feng Aotian to misunderstand me.

Even if the space is smaller, it doesn’t matter, right?

With a storage ring, food will never go bad when you put it in. You can put fresh food in and it will still be the same when you take it out. It is simply a must-have artifact for home travel, murder and robbery.

But, unfortunately, Ye Ping'an is not the protagonist. In this world where even most of the lower-level sect leaders do not have storage magic tools, Ye Ping'an, who is at the bottom of the list, does not even have the chance to touch it, let alone get it.

Even if there is news that a space magic weapon has fallen here, it is estimated that the war between the two sects downstream will have to be temporarily slowed down to confirm the ownership of the storage magic weapon before continuing.

Fantasy is fantasy after all, and dreaming is still dreaming after all. How could Ye Ping'an possibly get something as high-end as a space magic weapon? It's better to focus on the things in front of him.

Although the spiritual energy in the Land of No Spirits is thin, it is not completely absent. Compared to ordinary humans, they will be dragged down by various trivial matters, thus slowing down their cultivation progress. The monsters far away in the mountains and forests have no such concerns at all. For these monsters, apart from eating and hunting every day, they absorb and exhale spiritual energy for cultivation.

Monsters that live a little longer will have a good cultivation base, after all, little by little, it adds up to a lot. Over time, even if they are in the same place without spirits, there is still a difference between humans and monsters.

Some long-lived races may even get some opportunities by chance and enter the foundation-building stage.

Of course, it was very rare for a monster to have such bad luck, and Ye Ping'an would not encounter one here.

Just talking about Qi training, due to the special characteristics of their bodies, monsters are usually one step higher in combat power than humans.

For example, if a human has reached the tenth level of Qi training, there is a high probability that he will defeat a monster that has reached the ninth level of Qi training. However, if he faces a monster that has reached the tenth level of Qi training without some tricks, he will definitely be defeated.

Therefore, even when walking in the forest, Ye Ping'an was very careful and cautious.

Fortunately, there is abundant food in the forest. Not only are there fresh mushrooms and fruits, but also various small animals passing by Ye Ping'an from time to time.

Although Ye Ping'an was a loser, he was also a cultivator. With a flick of his sword, he killed two rabbits and a pheasant.

Now both meat and vegetarian food are available.

After slaughtering several wild animals, in order to prevent some monsters from finding this place by following the smell of blood in the air, Ye Ping'an found a place a little further away to process it. After cleaning it, he moved the fruits and wild animals back to this secret cave.

Coming to the depths of the underground cave and looking at the barrier in front of him, Ye Ping'an thought again and again but still did not have the courage to break in.

Originally, his image had already dropped to freezing point in the minds of the two men, and he was even equated with beasts and perverts.

If he walked in directly, Ye Ping'an even suspected that his image might be even worse than that of a beast or a pervert.

With a helpless sigh, he placed the ingredients at the door of the light curtain, hoping that Ningyue would find them when she came out. By then, when Xiao Mengyao finished her training, he could go in.

Then you can enjoy the delicious food cooked by Ningyue.

Ningyue's cooking skills have been constantly improving over the years, and Ye Ping'an has completely taken control of his stomach. Since he was busy traveling these days and just ate casually, Ye Ping'an even missed Ningyue's delicious food.

Wait, did I suddenly forget something?

Oh yes, Ye Ping'an slapped his forehead and forgot that he needed firewood.

After all, a good cook cannot cook without rice. How can you cook without fire? Even if Ningyue's cooking skills are high, what else can she do without fire except making a cold dish platter?

Then, Ye Pingan followed the cave again and came out, and began to look for dry firewood.

Compared with the smooth progress last time, this time in finding firewood, it seemed like God was playing a joke on Ye Ping'an.

PS: Thanks to lisanendie Dada, Jueluyuhu Dada, and Yexiange QwQ Dada for their monthly ticket rewards, thank you very much.

There will be another update in the evening.

31. The panicked 'boy'

Near the cave, both weeds and trees are lush and verdant, as if a young man is full of vitality and has nowhere to vent.

Ye Ping'an guessed that it might be due to the scarce spiritual power seeping out from the ground!

There was no choice but Ye Ping'an to walk away.

It took more than half an hour to collect a bundle of firewood. After wrapping it with vines, Ye Ping'an swung his arms and carried it behind his back.

Fortunately, although Ye Ping'an's realm is not high, he is also considered a cultivator. With his current realm, his strength is not much inferior to that of an ordinary adult.

“Ah!~~”

But just when Ye Ping'an was about to take the firewood he had found back home, he heard a sudden scream from a distance.

Although the voice was high-pitched, Ye Ping'an could tell that it was a very young voice, probably about the same age as his own.

When he thought that a child was about to be in danger, Ye Ping'an, a five-good boy in society, immediately put down the firewood and rushed towards the source of the sound.

Ye Ping'an didn't know what danger the child was facing.

It is also unclear whether the child is a cultivator and what kind of strength he has.

After all, the voice is very young and could be that of a mortal. Mortals face many dangers, such as wild beasts.

If this is the case, Ye Ping'an is confident. After all, in this spiritual land, wild beasts are common creatures, and monsters can be said to be very rare.

Of course, if he encountered a powerful monster, Ye Ping'an would not go forward to die. After all, now that he had finally grasped the life-saving straw of his junior sister, Xuanxing Sect finally had a chance to survive, how could Ye Ping'an lose his life here.

Maybe the situation the man encountered was very dangerous. Even when Ye Ping'an was on the way, the man kept screaming, and his voice was even breaking.

Fortunately, since the sound was not far away, Ye Ping'an only ran a few hundred meters to reach his destination.

Immediately, the scene in front of him came to Ye Ping'an's eyes. He saw a boy who was about ten years old, with short fiery red hair, falling to the ground. There was a big hole in his pants. Blood dyed the entire hem of his pants red and dripped onto the ground, dyeing the land red.

The most striking thing is that there are two hollow sharp tooth marks on the boy's calf near the ankle.

It was clearly a tooth mark from a snake. It was possible that due to a scar on his calf and the bite from the snake, the boy was unable to stand.

At this time, the boy held a nearly one-meter-long slender wooden stick in his hand, waving it in front of him, screaming loudly as he waved it, as if he had a natural fear of the thing in front of him.

Opposite the boy, there was a three-meter-long black snake, staring at him eagerly. The snake looked like it was waiting for an opportunity.

Seeing that the boy was fine, Ye Ping'an finally breathed a sigh of relief and immediately understood that the boy made such a sound probably because of his natural fear of snakes.

When he noticed that the boy was bitten by a snake, he hurriedly looked at the black snake carefully. Fortunately, judging from the color of the snake, although it was poisonous, the toxin was not deep and could only have a paralyzing effect.

It was at this time that the boy's hands began to become weak, perhaps because he had been swinging the stick for a long time, or because the toxin began to take effect.

Without paying attention, the wooden stick flew out.

The black snake, who was watching with eager eyes, would not let go of such an opportunity. It immediately sprinted towards the young man.

Fortunately, Ye Ping'an was already very close to the young man at this time. He immediately drew out the sword hanging behind him and slashed at the black snake.

Since the black snake was in the air, it had no way to dodge, and Ye Ping'an's sword directly hit the black snake's vital point. The black snake was instantly cut into two parts by the sword.

The two sections of the snake body spurted blood in the air and then fell to the ground. Fortunately, the black snake had not yet rushed to the boy, so the boy was spared from being baptized by the snake's blood.

The black snake was still twitching after it fell to the ground. The boy was so scared that he crawled back a few steps. It was obvious from his appearance that he was very afraid of snakes.

After Ye Ping'an put the sword back into the scabbard, he deliberately made a handsome gesture. After all, this way it would be easy to show off in front of others and gain admiration.

Ye Ping'an, who had just come in front of the young man, hadn't said a word when he was entangled by the young man. At this moment, the young man had tears on his face and asked in a voice full of help: "Brother, please help me, I was bitten by a snake and I can't reach it. Can you help me suck out the snake venom?"

Ye Pingan couldn't help but laugh. It seemed that the boy didn't know the toxicity of the snake. It could only paralyze people, not kill them. So he prepared to explain: "This snake is not poisonous, you..."

However, before Ye Ping'an could finish, the young man knelt down in front of Ye Ping'an and said with a choked voice: "Brother, my body is starting to lose consciousness. If I don't suck out the poison, it will be too late. I know you are unwilling to suck it out, so you say this. Please, brother, I haven't found out where my parents have gone, and I want to see them for the last time. I can't die yet. As long as you suck out the toxin, I will do anything, please." At this point the young man cried and kowtowed in front of Ye Ping'an.

"Okay, okay, I'll inhale, I'll inhale." Ye Ping'an hurriedly stopped him. Looking at the boy's excited look, Ye Ping'an thought that the boy was too emotional and lost his composure like this.

Moreover, the boy's tearful eyes and his feminine appearance made him look like a little girl crying to him, and Ye Ping'an couldn't bear it, so in order to appease the boy's emotions, Ye Ping'an had no choice but to do as the other party asked.

Fortunately, the boy was still young. When Ye Pingan pulled the boy's calf over, he found that the boy's calf was very white and slender, similar to the legs of his junior sister and Ningyue. After all, he was still a boy, and the difference between boys and girls was not big, which made Ye Pingan feel better.

Otherwise, if this is an adult's thick leg, covered with leg hair, just thinking about it...

Without hesitation, Ye Ping'an immediately put his hand close to the place where he was bitten by the snake, sucked hard, and a stream of blood flowed into Ye Ping'an's mouth along the marks of the two snake teeth. Then, he quickly spit it out to the side.

Although the snake venom only has a paralyzing effect, if Ye Ping'an is also poisoned, the two of them will fall here together and be unable to move. If a wild beast passes by, it will be like a picnic on a plate.

32. You will call me Big Brother from now on

This process lasted for about a few minutes. For some reason, after these few minutes of absorption, Ye Ping'an always felt that there was a pleasant fragrance on the boy's body. He even felt that the little feet next to his ankles were tempting him to lick them.

Ye Ping'an was careless. The book clearly said that the snake's venom was paralyzing, so why did it make him have such hallucinations and impulses?

He quickly shook his head, silently saying that he was a man, he was a man, and he liked plump ladies, not men. After dispelling some of the thoughts in his mind, Ye Pingan began to absorb the snake venom again.

When Ye Pingan could no longer suck out any more blood, he quickly let go of the boy's calf. He shook his head, opened the water bottle he carried with him, rinsed his mouth several times, and poured some water on the boy's wound.

Then he took out some cotton cloth and some medicine powder from his bosom, smeared the powder evenly on the wound and cotton cloth, and then wrapped the cotton cloth around the boy's calf.

Because of the hard training with his junior sister, injuries were common. Ye Ping'an usually carried these things with him, and now they just happened to come in handy.

Finally, when the treatment was over, Ye Ping'an hurriedly moved away from the boy for a distance.

After seeing Ye Ping'an's series of actions, the young man finally breathed a sigh of relief, and his spirit finally returned to normal. Then he looked at Ye Ping'an's kettle eagerly.

Maybe it was because of the excessive blood flow or the long period of fear, the boy felt a little thirsty, so he said carefully: "Brother, can you give me a drink of water?"

Ye Ping'an didn't care. After all, when he was rinsing his mouth just now, his mouth was not stuck to the mouth of the kettle, so the kettle was not poisonous.

Besides, they were all boys and still young, so there was nothing to worry about. Ye Ping'an handed over the kettle without hesitation.

The boy's eyes lit up instantly, and he quickly took the kettle. After saying "thank you", he immediately raised the kettle and started drinking. He didn't put down the kettle until he had finished all the remaining water in the kettle, revealing a satisfied look on his face.

Then, as if remembering that the water in the kettle was empty, the boy's face suddenly turned red. He shyly handed the kettle to Ye Ping'an and said apologetically, "Sorry! I was very thirsty just now."

"It's okay." Ye Ping'an waved his hand and didn't care about it. He took the kettle and hung it on his waist. Then he asked curiously, "By the way, brother, why are you here?"

"Brother...brother?" However, the young man was suddenly stunned after hearing Ye Ping'an's words.

"Are you older than me? I'm ten years old, how about you?" Ye Ping'an was puzzled. Could this guy be older than him? But he just called me big brother, why did he turn his face and ignore me?

"No... No, big brother, you misunderstood." The boy hurriedly explained; "I am nine years old this year, and it's right to call you big brother. I was just a little happy just now! After all, since my parents passed away, the children around me rarely approach me, and some even call me a jinx who killed my parents. Now to hear big brother call me so affectionately, I can't help but feel it's a little unreal." The boy lowered his head, as if he was a little shy.

"I see. In that case, you can call me big brother from now on, and I will teach you how to practice... and call you little brother." Ye Ping'an understood instantly that he was a poor child, and immediately uttered a classic line.

"Okay, big brother." The boy agreed immediately.

"Then why are you here, brother?" Ye Ping'an asked curiously again.

"Yes... it's like this, my home is not far away, and my parents often brought me here to hang out since I was a child. This place has left me with many memories. Now that my parents are gone, I can only look for their memories here. To be honest, my home is actually quite big. In two days, I will go to my main family, and it may take some time for me to come back, so I want to come here again before I leave."

"I see. Then how did you encounter this snake?" Ye Ping'an nodded and pointed at the black snake that was no longer twitching in the distance and asked.

Thinking of the situation at that time, the boy blushed, but still said honestly: "I was catching butterflies at the time, and I was bitten by the black snake without paying attention. Fortunately, I picked up a wooden root and waved the black snake away, but I was scratched by a stone, and I fell down and couldn't walk anymore.

After that, it was just like what you saw, brother. Although I had a dagger hidden in my arms, if the snake really pounced on me, I would most likely not be able to use the dagger, after all, I am naturally afraid of snakes. Moreover, even if I could kill the snake, I would die from the venom in the end!" The young man couldn't help but feel a little frustrated when he said this, not knowing whether it was because of his own uselessness or other reasons.

But then, he said to Ye Ping'an solemnly: "Brother, you saved my life. If you need me in the future, I will do my best to help you."

Ye Ping'an scratched his head and wanted to say that the snake was not poisonous, but looking at the boy's expression, Ye Ping'an swallowed his words.

After all, the boy has regained his sanity now. If Ye Ping'an tells him that snakes are not poisonous and he listens, what will he feel?

Then, Ye Pingan said with a serious face: "As cultivators of my generation, we should help those who are injustice. You don't have to do this, brother. If you want to thank me, you can also do the same as me in the future and help those who are injustice."

"Wow! Big Brother... I think you are so handsome." Upon hearing this, the boy's eyes immediately sparkled with admiration.

"Hehe, it's not bad! You should have a strong sense of justice like me in the future. By the way, can you still stand up?"

"Yes! I will." The boy said firmly, and then tried to stand up, but failed several times. He couldn't help but become frustrated again: "It seems impossible."

"Forget it, where is your home? I'll take you back!" After saying that, Ye Ping'an squatted in front of the boy and waved his hand at him: "Come up!"

"Thank...thank you, big brother." After hesitating for a while, the young man put his hand on Ye Ping'an's shoulder and climbed on top of Ye Ping'an.

"In which direction?"

"Where is it!" The young man pointed in a direction behind him.

Ye Ping'an immediately went in that direction.

Along the way, the two of them chatted about various things like old friends.

Although Ye Ping'an was sure that he was not the protagonist, but now he had a little fan, so of course he showed his best side, and even enjoyed all kinds of words of admiration from his little fan along the way.

However, what Ye Ping'an did not realize was that the younger brother he was carrying on his back had a rosy face throughout the journey.

In the end, as if she had found someone to rely on, her cheek rested directly against Ye Ping'an's back.

33. The new brother is actually the heroine

After Ye Ping'an ran for more than an hour, he finally arrived at his destination.

After more than an hour's trek, the boy was able to stand up. Although he still walked with a limp, it was not a serious problem.

"Brother, won't you come in and sit for a while?" the young man said with some regret.

"No, my junior sisters are still waiting for me to come back. Now that I've been delayed for such a long time, they may be getting impatient!"
