The crowd looked at Yuan Zhixin and Yuan Xiaoman, their gratitude and joy evident from the depths of their hearts, their smiles widening a bit.
It seemed that Yuan Zhixin and Yuan Xiaoman were in a much better situation than they had imagined.
Clearly, these two were also grateful people who knew how to repay kindness. As long as they had no ulterior motives, they would likely adapt to each other after a period of adjustment.
With the addition of two Orange Realm first-tier cultivators to their team, their strength had improved significantly.
"Now that you're both fine, how about we set off to the next city tomorrow?" Bai Li Hongzhuang smiled as she looked at Yuan Zhixin and Yuan Xiaoman. They had stayed here for several days, and it was time to continue their journey.
Two years might sound like a long time, but the scope of the small world was vast, and they had to reach the central city of the small world before the two-year deadline.
Upon hearing this, Yuan Zhixin and Yuan Xiaoman nodded in agreement. "No problem!"
Their presence had delayed the group's travel for several days, so it was indeed time to depart.
"Then let's go back to our rooms and cultivate. Take good care of your injuries, and we'll set off early tomorrow morning," Dongfang Yu smiled as she looked at Yuan Xiaoman and Yuan Zhixin.
The next day, just as the sky brightened, Bai Li Hongzhuang and her group had already set off from the city toward the next one.
Having been accustomed to going out to hunt and kill demonic beasts every day, they had been itching to leave the city for several days. Especially after dealing with the cultivators from the Qingxiao Dynasty, they were even more interested in advancing their cultivation.
Back then, they had been suppressed by the Qingxiao Dynasty, but now they had avenged themselves with their own hands.
All of this was made possible because of their diligent cultivation. Otherwise, if they encountered cultivators from the Qingxiao Dynasty this time, they would have likely suffered the same fate again.
Now they understood more clearly that only by improving their own strength could they defend their dignity.
The five-person team had successfully upgraded to a seven-person team. With this, they no longer had to worry about the numerical disadvantage when facing medium-sized dynasty teams.
Although they appeared to be only seven people at the moment, with the addition of Xiao Hei and Xiao Bai, they could be considered a team of nine.
Once Bai Shi finished his seclusion, they would become a team of ten. Even if they faced teams from large dynasties, they didn't need to worry too much.
"Hey, have you heard? There seems to be a disturbance from an ancient relic near Wuguang City. Many teams are rushing to the Wuguang Square recently."
"An ancient relic? Are there ancient relics appearing in this small world too?"
"There are inheritances in the small world itself. Many powerful cultivators who built the small world left their legacies here. That's why many cultivators participate in the assessment competition, hoping to get one of these legacies."
"If there really is an ancient relic, then we should hurry and take a look. It would be a great opportunity if we could obtain an inheritance!"
"Even if we don't get an inheritance, as long as we can obtain some treasures, it would still be something to celebrate!"
After hearing the conversation among the cultivators, Xiao Hei and Xiao Bai's eyes brightened. An ancient relic appearing in this small world?
The two beasts exchanged glances, excitement evident in their eyes. Then, in a flash, they transformed into two streaks of black and white light, disappearing behind the group.
Soon, Xiao Hei and Xiao Bai returned to Bai Li Hongzhuang's side, sitting on her shoulders—one on the left and one on the right.
