Chapter 525 - 375: Young Jiao
Li Yi had no idea where the elder named Nanshan Bo had gone. He didn’t give chase, and certainly didn’t dare to help him up.
He squatted near the kitchen gnawing on the chunk of Jiao dragon meat.
After eating his fill, Li Yi began circulating his Qi-Blood to digest the essence of the Jiao dragon meat as quickly as possible. Once mostly digested, he bit into another piece, and so forth, until he finished the entire piece. His muscles shimmered with silver light, and he felt a surge of overwhelming Qi-Blood vitality and seemingly inexhaustible energy coursing through his body.
Moreover, the Jiao dragon meat seemed to have a miraculous medicinal effect, feeling as if his body’s major tendons were nourished, stretching, growing, and strengthening.
"No wonder they talk about Dragon Veins and Tiger Bones. It seems that Jiao dragon meat can nourish the tendons. Besides, the flesh and blood of an eight hundred-year-old Jiao dragon is truly a rare and powerful medicine. If I could bring some back for my master and the others to share, it would certainly rebuild our physical strength and help us reach the pinnacle of Martial Arts again," Li Yi thought to himself. He also wanted to bring back some good things to show his respect to his mentor.
It was just that the price of this Jiao dragon was eight hundred gold, which he could not afford. He could only sneak a few bites here.
But then, Li Yi suddenly recalled something.
At the store in the market selling the Jiao dragon, besides the eight hundred-year-old elder Jiao, there was also a younger one, which he might be able to afford.
After that, he rubbed the piece of gold in his hand.
A piece of gold was worth a hundred gold coins.
Buying that younger Jiao shouldn’t be an issue, and if really necessary, he could add some mutant fruit.
