Chapter 128: Contractual Space

Jiang Yao slowly sat down next to Luo Xiao and the little dragon. He picked up the small pellet-like remnant of the dragon heart, and without wasting any time, he placed it in his mouth.

It did not instantly melt and turn into energy as medicinal pills would. Instead it just laid on his tongue.

Jiang Yao began rousing the Qi within his body, and as the Qi came into contact with the dragon heart, it slowly began chipping layer after layer of energy away from it,, spreading it through the body.

He could feel how his body was growing stronger. Previously, he had felt as if his body had been filled to the brim with Qi, and it was extremely hard to store more, which also made it harder for him to advance in rank. Still, now it felt as if someone had extended the capacity of his body; the pressure of being stuffed having vanished.

It took him near one thousand rotations of Qi through his body before the dragon heart had turned from its pellet size to nothing, and during this period, his body had transcended the limits and reached a whole new level.

It had taken most of the night to refine the remnants of the dragon heart, but although Jiang Yao had been busy refining his body, he had still kept a part of his consciousness on the young boy and the little dragon by his side.

Neither Luo Xiao nor the little dragon were moving throughout the night. They had fallen into a coma like state due to exhaustion. Jiang Yao was not worried about them. He understood the cause and effect of what had happened, and he just had to wait patiently.

Two days later, Luo Xiao finally began rousing from his sleep. His fingers twitched, and his eyelashes trembled. The gentle movement was instantly caught by Jiang Yao, and a gentle and soft smile spread on his lips as he reached out his hand to caress the younger man's head.

The first thing that Luo Xiao saw when he opened his eyes was Jiang Yao's gentle smile, and his unfocused eyes widened in surprise. He felt his heart beat rapidly, and an adorable blush appeared on his face.

He was absentminded and dizzy from the long sleep, and it took some time for his memories to return to him. As soon as the memories did return, he quickly looked at the little beast in his arms, which had curled up into a ball, and was sleeping sweetly within his embrace.

A gentle smile appeared on Luo Xiao's face. Although the encounter with the corpse puppet had truly harmed him and left his mind scarred for life, he had gained so many things that he never had before.

Now he had a lover; he also had a little beast which he felt closely connected to, as one would to their brothers and sisters.

When he saw the tenderness within Jiang Yao's eyes, Luo Xiao could not help but reach out his hand and gently caress his face in a daze. Those sparkling eyes that resembled the starry sky were impossible for him to stand against, and he was always drawn into them, losing his senses, drowning in the adoration within.

Not long after, Jiang Yao helped Luo Xiao rise from the ground. The sleeping dragon was no longer capable of being placed in the storage treasure, but when one contracted with a beast, they would open a contractor space within their soul, where the beast would be able to enter and leave as they pleased.

It was also possible for the contractor to put the contracted beast into the contractor space, and they were also capable of locking the beasts inside.

With the current situation, Luo Xiao had no reason to lock the little dragon inside the space, but he did move him inside, since was still asleep after being born.

Luo Xiao also still wanted to harvest more of the treasures within this cave, and with a sleeping dragon within his embrace, his arms would be occupied, and he would be unable to use them.

Jiang Yao saw the shining eyes that Luo Xiao used to look at all those priceless herbs that were all around him, and he could not help but chuckle.

"In fact, we ought to take everything present in this cave," Jiang Yao said after thinking about it for a moment.

"The cave was sustained by the energy and vitality that was seeping out of the dragon heart, but now that we have taken the dragon heart, these herbs and treasures will not be able to keep living. They will succumb to the passage of time due to the lack of energy in the air, and will slowly die out.

"When we harvest them and put them in our storage treasure, time will stand still, so no matter how many years it will take us to finish using them, they will not get spoiled."

Luo Xiao had been hesitant at first. This cave was truly a treasure trove, but he did not wish to be the reason for it to die. Now that Jiang Yao told him that the plants and resources would die slowly, as they would be unable to gain enough energy, he did not feel any mental restrictions any longer.

A smile began spreading on his lips as his shining eyes landed on the many treasures around him, and without even acknowledging Jiang Yao's words, his hands began taking the plants, ores, and every other treasure he came across.

Even the grass was not left off, and handfuls of spirit grass were placed within the storage treasure. Luo Xiao finally felt grateful that the storage pouch that Jiang Yao had gotten him was extremely large.
