Fiends Bizarre Ailment

Over the next four days, Mu Yu and Xiaoshuai were blessed with delicacies thanks to the fiends doting on Qiao Xue. Unfortunately for Mu Yu, she always locked her door when she slept and went outside the valley to meditate daily.

Its normal for sparks to fly between a man and woman when they share a room, Mu Yu would grumble in exchange for a glare.

Mu Yu, how about we check out the ruins? Im bored out of skin, opined the dragon vine.

Yeah, the poison cant do anything to our thick skin, Xiaoshuai added, eating a pork bun from Aunt Zhu.

Dont go. I can filter poison just as you can, but the poison still gives me grief, voiced Qiao Xue.

What else is there to it? Mu Yu queried.

Grandpa Green Dragon once had a slip of the tongue and mentioned its a forbidden zone on Third Continent. He also said that only Apotheosis Realm cultivators and beyond could withstand the pressure of the ancient battleground.

Ancient battleground? Who fought there?

I just gave you the answer: if only Apotheosis Realm cultivators can go there, who do you think fought there?

Mu Yu speculated there was more to it than that; however, he was too lazy to find out. Staying at Sunshine Valley and being a good boy was his way of life. He liked lazing around, yet he never had a chance to ever since leaving Moyun Mountains for the first time.

Qiao Xue, why hasnt anyone come to pick a bone with me for Long Xingyuns death yet?

They wont rashly take action here.

Why? I thought those carrying true dragon blood looked down on those without it. Shouldnt it be the norm for the haughty ones to start trouble here?

That was true in the past, but not now. Aunt Phoenix protects the fiends here and will ruthlessly kick out any troublemakers, answered Qiao Xue, unable to resist a smile.

Who?

Phoenix Fiend Monarch!

Hang on. Theres another monarch?

Yeah. Didnt I tell you she regained freedom a decade ago? Thanks to her return, fiends without true dragon blood could be on equal footing as the dragons.

Why didnt you tell me something so important?

Important? How is it your business?

Because Well Umm Its upsetting you didnt tell me when were so close.

Yep, there was no reason for me to tell you. Also, you never asked.

Are there any other fiend kings whove returned?

No. Were still searching for the whereabouts of the others. I brought you here to Sunshine Valley since its Aunt Phoenixs territory. Oh, Mr. White Ape also resides here now. I suppose Ocean Fiend King is also staying here.

They dont complain about it being squishy?

We only have a few residential areas. Other places are akin to disordered places, where you see various races living together. Aunt Phoenix is actually very displeased with Grandpa Green Dragons handling of logistics, lambasting him for giving his descendants too much privilege for it to be fair to other fiends. Thats the reason she had Sunshine Valley built and only permitted non-dragons to reside here. Grandpa Green Dragon cant oppose her because uniting all fiends is the priority.

She really is the fiend races voice of reason and blessing.

Qiao Xue, why do the fiends spoil you so much, even delivering meals to you daily? Xiaoshuai inquired.

Qiao Xue created a fountain from her fingertip. Probably because I can control water. We cant carelessly drink water in these regions, especially since the river we came across on our way here flows here from the ruins. Since I can filter water, they need me to supply purified water. Plus, I can use my water to help crops grow.

Mu Yu, the doctor asked you to drop by his place, Hu Mei visited and conveyed, giving Mu Yu a wink.

Ill get moving, then. Enjoy your stay, responded Mu Yu, heading off to the doctor he often visited to share medical knowledge with.

Even though those with cultivation were supposed to be immune to illness, lots of ailments originating from the environment the fiends lived in plagued them. Even Body Synthesis Real fiends would feel as though they were going to hell and back on occasion.

Mu Yu, I wanted to ask for your insight on my arm. The doctor rolled up his sleeve and elaborated, For some reason, it occasionally hurts as though its set ablaze, and not even my spiritual energy can alleviate the excruciation. I have tried pain killers to no avail.

Your arm aches? Mu Yu couldnt find any odd symptoms. What symptoms do you see or feel, such as what triggers the pain, when is it triggered or at what intervals?

I have not found any concrete triggers. Ah, strange patterns also show up when it starts to burn. Honestly, I have no explanation for any of the phenomenon. Other fiends have also experienced the same condition, albeit everyone experiencing the pain in different locations and seeing different images. Even Ancestor Green Dragon is baffled, which is why I am seeking your insight.

The doctor presented Mu Yu with a book, expanding, Ive recorded the images seen thus far in this book. I cannot identify any correlation or patterns from the images. We did suspect it was ruins poison at one stage, but none of us have died, so we ruled it out.

Mu Yu noted the drastic differences in the images recorded. Approximately when did this condition pop up?

It has almost been two years since the first identified case. Not long after we recorded the first case, many other fiends started suffering the same ailment. In some, it was a monthly trigger, while others could be weekly or daily. As far as I know, the pain wouldnt last long. After some time, fiends started to consider it something that was natural; however, I noticed a trend.
