“Let’s see who dares to show off on horseback in front of me now!”
Jiang Ke’er felt incredibly satisfied.
She held grudges and could never forget the moment she almost died under a horse’s hooves.
She had sworn to kill Dao Yi’s horse, and now her vow had come true… From now on, if she said she’d kill someone’s horse, she’d kill it, no hesitation!
The only regret was that this truth spell didn’t work on Qiao Xiaoxian, and the “scram” incantation could only be used once a week.
“What a pity, what a pity,” Jiang Ke’er shook her head and sighed repeatedly.
How great would it be if she could make Qiao Xiaoxian roll away obediently like Dao Yi.
Qiao Xiaoxian seemed to have guessed what she was regretting, merely smiling faintly and keeping the matter in her heart.
Speaking of Dao Yi, he kept rolling and rolling—
He rolled past the town he had come from, then, under the bewildered stares of the townspeople, he rolled through the town and into the distance.
“Wh~~y~~ c~~an’t~~ I~~ st~~op~~, ahhh!”
Night fell, and amidst Dao Yi’s terrified gaze and screams, he rolled into the dark and deep dense forest.
“Don’t~~ go~~ in~~, help~~ me~~!”
Night was when Ruin Beasts descended, and at this time, their senses were magnified manifold.
Any living creature entering the jungle would be perceived by them and become their food.
And in his current state… let alone resisting, his stomach had started feeling uncomfortable a while ago, and several times the lunch mixed with stomach acid had surged to his throat.
He had forced it down with true qi.
However, to his despair, he couldn’t suppress it anymore.
A dark purple teleportation portal opened not far in front of him.
A few Profound Iron Ruin Beasts saw Dao Yi, this self-delivered meal, and were overjoyed.
They grinned menacingly and pounced on Dao Yi.
Unexpectedly, at this moment, Dao Yi could no longer hold back the churning in his stomach.
The filth in his stomach surged up, black-green chives mixed with undigested eggs, spraying out in all directions like a fountain.
The scene was quite spectacular.
This one mouthful was like the last straw that broke the camel’s back; Dao Yi’s mental state completely collapsed.
The Ruin Beasts also froze, their bodies suspended in mid-air, splattered in the face by Dao Yi’s sudden fountain.
Their vision obstructed, their movements couldn’t help but pause slightly, while Dao Yi rolled past them like a gust of wind, heading into the distance.
“Thud!”
The sudden collision made Dao Yi’s waist ache.
He focused his gaze… and sure enough, he had crashed into a tree again.
This wasn’t the first time he had gotten stuck under a tree.
In the first few instances, he had held onto hope, thinking he could use the opportunity to escape… but the outcome was that with an unyielding persistence like water dripping through stone, he had slowly ground down the entire tree, then continued rolling forward.
His waist was almost chafed raw.
But this time was fine, because the angle wasn’t too direct.
As he rolled, he managed to break free from under the tree and rolled in another direction.
He rolled very fast.
Although some trees in the forest blocked him, his elasticity was excellent.
Like a three-dimensional pinball, he twisted in an erratic Z-shaped path, darting quickly through the trees.
Even when the Ruin Beasts chased him with all their might, they couldn’t catch him… He was like a happy gust of wind.
After rolling for a long time, and having pretty much thrown up everything in his stomach, Dao Yi felt much better and gradually began to accept this situation.
He rolled out of the forest and into another human town.
A celebration was taking place there, and the streets were filled with pedestrians.
“Move aside! Move aside!”
The pedestrians in the city only heard a faint, strange sound approaching from afar, and then a dark shadow instantly arrived, rumbling and rolling forward!
“Clatter-bang!”
The pedestrians screamed, scattering like bowling pins struck by a ball, sent flying into the sky with a “ping-pong-bang.”
On a stage, two cultivators were locked in a duel.
This seemed to be a highly rewarding arena competition, reaching its critical deciding moment, with a tense and solemn atmosphere.
“Whoosh~~”
Until that dark shadow, swirling with a wild wind, crashed into the arena, demolishing it and knocking out the two cultivators on the spot.
“Uh… it seems today’s arena winner is a dark horse who appeared out of nowhere,” the bewildered host watched Dao Yi depart.
“It’s a pity he doesn’t seem to intend to collect his prize. He came rumbling, and he left rumbling… departing elegantly, taking not a single cloud with him. Truly an exalted master!”
Dao Yi’s journey continued.
He rolled towards a swamp, making “ooroo-rooooo” sounds as he rolled through the mud.
He then rolled towards a snow mountain, getting deeply encased in a large snowball.
The snowball grew bigger and bigger, finally carrying destructive power that leveled several sword sects at the foot of the mountain.
“I’m so sorry! You really can’t blame me for this!”
Dao Yi rolled further and further away, tears streaming.
He rolled out of Myriad Blades State, rolling into the distance, towards the rising sun.
He didn’t know when he would stop.
Perhaps, life doesn’t end, and neither does the journey.
This was originally such an ambitious and inspiring declaration, but now he hated that saying.
“This child, perhaps he could be a perpetual motion machine.”
Jiang Ke’er didn’t know why, but she suddenly felt like making a sarcastic remark, though she herself wasn’t sure what she was being sarcastic about.
Perhaps it was because she had just thought of building a power generator.
After all, the tech tree in this world was severely skewed; at night, they could only rely on candles and some glowing natural treasures for light, which was quite troublesome.
If she could become the Edison of another world, she would surely get rich and live a decadent, leisurely life.
Moreover, there were many simple basic scientific principles in this world that hadn’t been discovered, and she was the only one who knew them… If utilized properly, this would undoubtedly be a valuable fortune.
However, there was no time or resources for dedicated scientific research now; she would have to wait until she returned from Hanye Island.
“Hanye Island, huh…”
Thinking of this, Jiang Ke’er couldn’t help but sigh softly.
Hopefully, she’d come back alive.
