Peerless War God

Chen Xiao let out a long breath and slowly opened his eyes. With just a slight telepathic thought, he understood the situation he was in.    

His body was almost completely paralyzed, and his four limbs and bones had all shattered. He couldn't even move a finger. He could only lie on the bed and wait for someone else to bring him food.    

The only good news was that his soul had not suffered much damage, and the aura sea in his body was still intact. Relying on his remaining mana, he was able to slowly recover.    

However, this might take a while, a few days at the most, or at the most, several months. Even Chen Xiao himself wasn't too sure about the outcome.    

Before that, he could only stay with this pair of siblings who had saved him out of kindness.    

Even though it was such a difficult situation, he did not let his guard down at all. He carefully spread out his spiritual will to check his surroundings.    

He then discovered that he was on an unknown island.    

He had never heard of this island before. This island wasn't big. Compared to Golden Island, Fire Island, or the Yin Island, it was pitifully small.    

The population of the island was around two to three million. In the entire Realm of the Gods, it could be said to be an ordinary city.    

In the western seas, there were many small islands that were also very common.    

Seeing this, Chen Xiao was finally relieved. Now that he was on an ordinary island, he could finally get rid of the pursuit from Master Yin Xu. As long as he continued to hide his aura, Master Yin Xu would not be able to find him within a short period of time.    

In this period of time, it was enough for him to recover.    

He made up his mind in an instant. Staying here with the siblings for the time being was an excellent cover.    

At this moment, the conversation of the brother and sister came to Chen Xiao's ears again.    

"Sis, you couldn't have saved a dead man this time, right? His bones are all broken, like a pile of mud. This is too scary. If this person died in our house, how unlucky would he be?" The man said.    

"Crow's beak, don't talk nonsense," the woman retorted, "I can see that he has a tough life. He's still alive even after being injured like that, he's most likely not an ordinary person."    

"Not an ordinary person?"    

"Yes, he is most likely a cultivator." The female voice replied.    

"Wow, really? "We actually saved a cultivator. Doesn't that mean we can let him teach us how to cultivate?" The man said happily.    

"Mm, when he wakes up, I'll try asking." The female voice said lightly.    

"En, alright. I'll bring the fish soup over now." The man's voice jumped with joy.    

Hearing this, Chen Xiao's heart was filled with smiles. The thoughts of this pair of brother and sister were too ordinary.    

By chance, he saved a cultivator who was in trouble. It was very normal for ordinary people to want to obtain some benefits.    

Chen Xiao even felt a little lucky. If it wasn't for the fact that this pair of siblings saved him, who knows if he would really drown in the sea when he fainted.    

In that situation, he didn't have the energy to struggle at all. If his body wasn't tough enough, he would have died a long time ago.    

Soon, with a creaking sound, the door was pushed open. A teenager with a crew-cut head that looked to be about fifteen or sixteen years old walked in with a bowl of fish soup.    

The moment the young man entered, he saw Chen Xiao open his eyes and was shocked.    

"Uncle, you're awake?" Here, have some fish soup. "    

The youth's face was full of excitement as he walked forward. It seemed that he was too excited, so he accidentally stumbled and fell.    

With bowl full of fish soup in hand, he fell to the ground in an instant.    

"Ah!"    

The youth cried out in alarm. If there was no surprise, he would fall so hard that his face was bruised and swollen, and his bowl would shatter into pieces.    

But at this moment, a miracle happened.    

A strange force appeared out of nowhere and stopped the youth in mid-air. Even the bowl seemed to have been frozen in mid-air.    

Hearing the scream, the woman quickly ran in. When she saw the scene before her, she covered her mouth in shock. Her eyes were wide open and she was speechless.    

"This …"    

This power did not appear out of nowhere, but was due to Chen Xiao's telepathic thoughts. He slowly helped the boy up and the bowl fell onto the table beside him.    

"Have you recovered?" After a long time, the girl finally said this.    

Ever since she was young, she had lived on this small island. She had only heard of powerful cultivators and had seen some from afar.    

However, this was the first time he had seen such a technique at such a close distance. Unavoidably, he was overwhelmed with emotions and didn't know what to do.    

The woman was slightly older and looked to be in her early twenties. Her face could not be considered an outstanding beauty, but it was still pretty delicate and pretty. She wore simple clothes and had her hair tied up.    

She stared at Chen Xiao with her black eyes, and was so stunned that she couldn't speak.    

On the other hand, the youth's face was full of joy as he happily said, "Wah! Uncle, you're so awesome! You even recovered from such a heavy injury. What was that move just now? Can you teach me?"    

"Xiaoshan, don't talk nonsense. Y-you must be hungry. Xiaoshan, bring the fish soup over." The young girl hurriedly said after calming down.    

After all, she was still an unmarried girl, so this sort of thing wasn't suitable for her to do.    

Chen Xiao scanned the house with his telepathic thoughts and confirmed that there was no one else in the house. There was only the brother and sister. The two of them probably had been relying on each other since they were little and lived a bitter life.    

Upon being reprimanded, the youth's smile disappeared as he replied, "Oh."    

Then, he obediently carried the fish soup over and fed it to Chen Xiao.    

The fish soup was extremely delicious and the fish meat was stewed until it became soft and rotten. He only needed to sip a little before swallowing it.    

He drank three big bowls of fish soup consecutively before he gave up.    

However, while he was drinking the soup, the girl kept watching him from the side. She was like a curious baby, causing him to feel a little uncomfortable.    

"I'm full, the taste is pretty good."    

Seeing that the young man was about to fill a bowl, Chen Xiao quickly said.    

"The way you drink it is good. I heard that cultivators all eat immortal pills and spirit herbs, as well as demon beasts' flesh and blood. You might not be used to eating ordinary fish." The young girl had an innocent expression as she spoke.    

Chen Xiao's expression froze and he nodded speechlessly, "It's just that, occasionally, I don't eat like that often."    

"Is that true? I heard that cultivators are very powerful, capable of flying into the sky, flying into the earth, and flying into the sea. Uncle, can you also do it? " The teenager looked at Chen Xiao and said.    

"I can, but not now." Chen Xiao answered.    

"Yes, uncle, you suffered such heavy injuries, are you fighting with someone else?" I heard that cultivators often fight to the death over treasures. Is this true? "
