Chapter 53: Li Yingqiong (Seeking Recommendations and Collections)

  "Brother, I didn't sell the electric bike, but I ran into one of your friends." Li Yingqiong couldn't care about Yi Chu anymore and rushed in with three steps at a time.

  "Who is my friend?" Li Yinglin's voice was filled with doubt, he used to have a few friends in this city of Tuyang, but they had all cut ties with him due to threats.

  Yi Chu gently pushed the door open and entered, in front of him was a tattered grass mat, on which lay a pale-faced man with dull eyes, struggling to get up.

  If it weren't for the outline that hadn't changed much, Yi Chu wouldn't have dared to believe that the man in front of him was the heroic young man who had wielded his sword and drunk strong liquor with abandon all those years ago.

  At the moment Yi Chu walked in, Li Yinglin's face changed. This strange man he had never seen before, how could he be his friend?

  "Who are you? Why are you impersonating my friend? What do you want?" Li Yinglin exclaimed in shock, her face turning even redder with agitation.

  "Lin Xiaozhi, how did you end up like this? I'm Yi Chu!" Yi Chu called out warmly and quickly removed the mask from his face.

  "Yi Chu, you're really Yi Chu?" Li Yinglin looked at Yi Chu with an excited glint in his eyes. At this moment, he was so hoping someone could help him out, and just as he was filled with longing, Yi Chu had coincidentally arrived.

  Li Yingqiong, who was standing by, had already been stunned during the conversation between the two, but what surprised her even more was that this person had changed his face in an instant!

  Supporting the emotionally agitated Li Yinglin to sit on a straw mat, a wave of heartache surged in Yi Chu's heart. He never expected that the brother who was once so spirited and proud would end up like this!

  Watching Yichu put on the mask again, Li Yinglin grabbed Yichu's hand and said: "Yichu, being able to see you... I can die with my eyes closed." As he spoke, he beckoned to Li Yingqiong: "Yingqiong, come over and meet your brother Yichu. Remember, after Brother is gone, consider Yichu as your older brother..."

  "Cough...cough...cough..." Li Yinglin's words were cut off by a fit of coughing. At this moment, he was weak and listless, like a candle in the wind.

  "Yinglin, take a rest first and don't get excited." Yi Chu said as he took out an orange-yellow pill from his storage bag and handed it to Li Yinglin: "Lin Xiaozi, you're extremely lucky, tens of millions of people died at Hu Yang Guan, but you didn't even get a scratch. What's more, this little injury? I have some special medicine here, take one first and see how it goes."

  "No need to bother, Yi Chu. I'm aware of my own injuries. My internal organs are already damaged, and the only reason I've managed to hold on this long is because the person who hurt me... didn't want me to die too quickly. This medicine of yours may be good, but it's still a waste." Li Ying Lin glanced at the orange-yellow pill in Yi Chu's hand and shook his head.

  "This medicine is very effective, even if it can't cure you immediately, at least it can delay the pain a bit. What's the point of being polite with me now?" After saying that, Yi Chu directly stuffed the orange-yellow pill into Li Yinglin's mouth without giving him a chance to refuse.

  Li Yinglin obediently took the medicine and swallowed it, then smiled at Yi Chu with gratitude. As the orange-yellow pill entered her body, a faint flush of pink appeared on Li Yinglin's pale face.

  "It's a pity, this time I've lost big, really big. Such good elixir, it's the first time I've ever had it. The hidden spiritual energy in it can at least help me cultivate my python bull aura to the fourth grade. But now, with my current injuries, I simply can't bring out the effect of this elixir." As Li Yinglin spoke, he actually sat up against the mat.

  Yi Chu smiled faintly, without saying a word. Although the orange-yellow dan was hard to come by, compared to his friend, he couldn't bear to see him die without helping. Seeing Li Yinglin's expression improve, he felt relieved in his heart.

  "Yi Chu, you said, are we considered brothers?" Li Yinglin's tone suddenly turned serious as he asked Yi Chu.

  Looking at the resolute expression on Li Yinglin's face, Yi Chu's expression changed. Just now, he had already used his true power to examine Li Yinglin's injuries and knew that this injury was not something he could heal himself.

  The venomous energy shook Li Yinglin's chest and abdomen, causing them to crack open from the inside. Although these cracks were still connected, they could collapse at any moment.

  "There's no need to beat around the bush, just say it directly." Yi Chu looked at Li Yinglin with a faint gaze and said slowly.

  "I knew you wouldn't let me down." As she spoke, Li Yinglin's hands trembled as she searched under the broken mat and pulled out a black jade pendant.

  "Yi Chu, do you remember I once told you that in my family's ancestors, there was a paternal aunt who was taken as a disciple by an immortal?"

  Looking at Li Yinglin's serious eyes, Yi Chu nodded and said: "Hmm, I remember. I also remember that many brothers said you were bragging at the time!"

  "Hehe, I even swore an oath to make those guys believe me." A faint smile also appeared on Li Yinglin's face, and the years of the past seemed to have returned before her eyes.

  "This jade pendant was left by my aunt. Now I want to entrust you with taking the jade pendant and Yingqiong to Mount Huantian, as for other matters, don't bother about them."

  The jade pendant didn't seem to have anything special about it in Yi Chu's eyes. However, seeing Li Yinglin's serious expression, Yi Chu carefully took the jade pendant into his own palm.

  "Bang, bang, bang", his expression suddenly changed, and with a flick of his fingers, a burst of energy shot out towards the sudden flying object. A pile of stones-like things, under the flick of his fingers, flew back in the direction they came from like lightning.

  "Ah ah ah", with a few miserable cries, Li Yinglin's family door was kicked open.

  "Li Yinglin, you're really something else! How dare you lay a hand on my brother? This time, I'm going to tear your doghouse down!" The furious big man shouted at Li Yinglin, with six or seven ruffians following behind him, each with an evil look on their faces.

  Li Yinglin was about to stand up when Yi Chu stepped forward and pressed him down, saying: "Lin Xiazi, with me here, there's no need for you. Everything here is left to me!"
