After walking for a few hours to return to the part of the town where he came across Li Chuang, and then appeared in a particular street, he suddenly heard the voice of someone behind him.

Then with his brows furrowing as the voice sounded really familiar to him, he quickly turned around to see who that was.

Then when he did so, he saw Li Chuang standing in front of him with a smile in his face.

"You are back" Li Chuang said with a smile.

"Yes I am" Xiao Lin responded while Li Chuang nodded his head. .

Although Li Chuang had mysteriously appeared in front of Xiao Lin, Xiao Lin however didn't need anyone or Li Chuang himself to tell him how he was able to trace him to the particular area that he was in. And he was able to know this because of Li Chuang's jade pill box which he still had with him in his spatial ring. So, as long as he had that jade pill box, he would be like a dazzling beacon in the night sky no matter the place that he would go to.

Li Chuang who was gazing at Xiao Lin with a smile in his face, said "And I guess that brother Xiao was able to become the inheritor of the Azure Firestorm Archer's legacy, right?"

"Haha. Yes." Xiao Lin responded after producing a small chuckle and then nodded his head.

"Alright." Li Chuang said with a great impression in his heart and then continued by asking, "So, were you able to fill those vessels which I gave you with blood?"

"Yes, I was able to" Xiao Lin said and then spoke further, "Li Chuang, I was able to get more than the amount of blood vessels that you requested for"

Once Xiao Lin said that, Li Chuang's eyes shone.

"You were really able to?" He asked to confirm what Xiao Lin said.

"Yes." Xiao Lin said.

"Awesome!" Li Chuang said delightedly.

He then spoke further, "I bless the day that I met you and made you my brother, Xiao Lin. Thank you very much. I really appreciate it."

Xiao Lin who was only indifferently gazing at him, produced a smirk expression in his face.

He then said "Don't thank me yet, Li Chuang. It's not free. I won't give it to you for free because it wasn't easy for me to gather that amount of blood in there for you. So, to collect them from me, you will have to give me something in return"

Haha!

Li Chuang laughed.

He then said, "Alright brother Xiao. What do want from me?"

"Just more boxes of Spiritual Aura bestowing pills. I know that you have that in large numbers with you. So, do give me more of it."

Haha!

Li Chuang laughed again.

He then said "Alright, bro Xiao."

Then with a wave of his hand, many Jade Pill Box appeared on the ground before Xiao Lin. While Xiao Lin who was ready for the appearance of the pill storage boxes, quickly stowed them into his spatial ring with a wave of his hand.

Feeling satisfied, he looked at Li Chuang with a smile in his face and then bumped fist with him.

"I guess that since you have accomplished what you are here for, you would return to your God and Devil fighting sect, right?" Xiao Lin asked.

"Yes." Li Chuang answered.

He then said further "It was nice coming across you, bro. Xiao. Anytime you come to my continent in the future, make sure you come visit me at my sect."

"Definitely" Xiao Lin said with a nod of his head.

And once Xiao Lin said that, Li Chuang suddenly disappeared in a flash, seeming as if he basically teleported away.

Seeing that he couldn't find him anywhere as Li Chuang had instantly vanished from his front, Xiao Lin sighed and shook his head. He then said, "I wonder what perverse movement or evasion technique that he has mastered. But I am sure that it can't rival with the Demonic Blade King's own, as he had reached a great level of cultivation and comprehension."

Still standing where he was in a particular street in the town, he began to produce so many thoughts in his head.

'Now that I have this bracelet which would prevent the sun from burning me to ashes, I guess I can now go out in the day to do what I have always wanted to do.' He said inwardly.

He then continued, 'And I guess it's time for me to return to the castle. It has been many months since I left that place. Master Nine Calamities would be waiting for me to return.'

Once he thought this, Xiao Lin began to walk into the distance in the direction that he was facing.

Then asking descriptions from people that he met on his way, he was able to arrive at a garage where he would take a carriage to the town where Nine Calamities castle was located.

...

After entering the carriage with the carriage shooting at a high speed to the town where the castle was located, he was able to arrive at the town in the evening.

Then when he paid the carriage driver off and came down from the carriage, he began to walk from that part of the street that he dropped from the carriage to the massive forest where Nine Calamities castle was hidden at.

Not long as he approached the heart of the forest since he had employed his powerful Vampiric Speed ability, he was suddenly attacked by an arrow that shot with a great speed towards him.

But immediately perceiving the whistling sound of the arrow as it shot through the air at a shocking high speed towards him, he quickly evaded it using both his Vampiric Speed and Vampiric Agility ability.

However, immediately after he dodged that, many more arrows that their arrowheads glowed in a brilliant and fiery blue color, suddenly surfaced and shot toward him at speeds that will amaze Xiao Lin himself.

Realizing what would happen if any of those arrows struck him, Xiao Lin quickly aimed his two hands out at them and unleashed a tremendous amount of his dark-colored Spiritual Energy which immediately transformed into several dark-black solid fists of energy that shot out at great momentums towards the arrows.

Boom!

Boom!

Boom!...

Rampant booming sounds began to ring out as Xiao Lin's solid fists of energy impacted the arrows and sent them flying off in other directions since his solid energy fists couldn't really destroy or ruin the arrows that were actually true weapons.

"The hell is shooting arrows at me?!" Xiao Lin's raging voice rang out.

Haha!

The laughter of someone suddenly rang out from seemingly everywhere.

Then once the laughter ended, the person shooting arrows at Xiao Lin showed himself.

"Bloodfang, welcome back to our lair of bandits. It has been so long that you left. Welcome." The person said while Xiao Lin only gazed at him with imperceptible wrath in his eyes.

"Why were you shooting arrows at me? You wanted to kill me, right? That was your plan, isn't it?" Xiao Lin asked as he gazed at the person with a cold light flashing in his eyes.

"No. Why would I want to do that? You are one of us, Bloodfang. Besides, if I tried to kill you, Master Nine Calamities who has developed a great liking for you, would surely know, and will destroy me before I even have the time to explain anything to him." The person said.

"Then what was your damned reason for shooting arrows at me, I will like to know, or I will instantly destroy you myself" Xiao Lin said with a threatening tone in his voice.

"Well, no need to be offended, Bloodfang. That was just how I chose to welcome you back to the team. Haha." The person said and then laughed, while Xiao Lin only stared at him like he was an emotionless being.

"So, you would call that a welcome?" Xiao Lin asked with an icy-cold expression in his face. .

Haha!

The bandit before him only laughed.

He then asked "Well, you weren't hurt, right?"

Then he said further before Xiao Lin could reply, "So, no need to throw all these tension into the atmosphere hanging above us, Bloodfang. Let it go."

Xiao Lin looked him with a cold smile in his face and said, "The deadly arrows that you shot at me weren't really able to deal me any form of damage because I had the strength to knock them off."

Then he said further, "But assuming I didn't possess the strength to be able to carry out such, then you would have killed me, you bastard."

"Oh. I am sorry about that if you feel that way." The bandit said.

He then continued, "Actually, why I did that was because when I saw you dashing towards the castle and immediately recognized that it was you, a thought immediately came to my mind that I should test you on how strong and powerful that you have become. And so, i carried out my thought. And impressively, you didn't disappoint me."

Xiao Lin who was calmly listening to what the bandit was saying, suddenly produced a fierce expression in his face. And as soon as this hardened expression appeared in his face, he looked at the bandit and coldly said, "Let me see how strong you have become."
