Supreme Warrior in the City

When Su Yang was outside before, he already had a general understanding of this valley. The valley’s diameter is about fifty li, which isn’t very long. Su Yang thought that searching the entire valley wouldn’t be difficult.

Su Yang chose a direction to walk in, intending to find the edge of the valley first.

However, after walking for an entire day and covering more than one hundred li, he still couldn’t find the edge of the valley.

This situation baffled Su Yang even more. Was the valley inside more vast than what he had seen from outside?

Su Yang really had no idea what was going on with this valley or how big it truly was. Thinking about it, wandering around aimlessly like this made it likely difficult to find the group of Winged Cultivators. Hence, Su Yang decided to return and start searching from the position he was previously at as a center.

As a result, halfway through his way back, Su Yang suddenly found Qi’er unconscious on the road.

Qi’er was lying in a patch of grass, with no injuries on her body, looking exactly as before.

Finding Qi’er, naturally, Su Yang was overjoyed and quickly helped her up.

Qi’er was still unconscious, and Su Yang had run out of medicine and power, leaving him momentarily unable to treat her. Unable to do anything, Su Yang could only carry Qi’er around, searching for a place with water to settle temporarily. He eventually chose a spot near a lake.

Qi’er remained unconscious for three days before waking up, during which time Su Yang lived like surviving in the wilderness, searching for anything edible nearby to stave off hunger.

Without power, Su Yang was entirely like an ordinary person, needing food to sustain himself.

Fortunately, the area around the lake was abundant in resources, with fish in the water and various fruit trees and plants around, allowing Su Yang to persevere in these circumstances.

After Qi’er woke up, Su Yang was overjoyed, and once Qi’er had recovered some, he led her in searching the valley for an exit.

In the end, they spent six months without finding the edge of the valley. The vastness of the valley surpassed Su Yang’s previous estimates.

For two months, they had tried to walk in a straight line in one direction, hoping to find the edge of the valley, but even in those two months, they didn’t touch the edge.

After six months of tossing around, they had to resign themselves, not knowing how big the valley really was. So many Winged Cultivators fell along with them, yet after such a long time, they hadn’t encountered a single one, illustrating the vastness of the valley.

The situation in this valley was entirely beyond their expectations. Undoubtedly, wanting to leave the valley now was essentially impossible for them.

So, Su Yang and Qi’er eventually returned to the lakeside, where at least food was plentiful, and they didn’t have to worry about going hungry.

Thus, they survived in the valley for three years.

Su Yang’s power showed no signs of recovery, and Qi’er would fall unconscious every half a month, with no idea what was happening.

Although Su Yang remembered the healing techniques from the Heavenly Destiny Treasure Book, Qi’er’s condition did not match any illness in the book, leaving him no way to treat her.

Luckily, after being unconscious for a while, Qi’er would naturally wake up without any discomfort, which offered Su Yang some relief from his worries.

However, Su Yang was more concerned about the situation in the Human World. They had been in the valley for three years, ample time for many things to happen outside. Who knew what the current state of affairs was outside?

Su Yang even worried about how many of his relatives and friends might still be alive.

But regardless of his worries and anxiety, there was nothing he could do, for he couldn’t leave the valley.

”Brother Su, I’m back!”

A crisp voice interrupted Su Yang’s thoughts, and he looked up to see Qi’er returning with a small basket. The basket contained several large Flat Peaches, each weighing about two jin, looking extremely enticing.

Not far behind, there was a large Peach Forest with many peach trees. Most of the peaches on the trees were ripe and could be eaten.

Initially, Su Yang was worried that once these peaches were ripe, they wouldn’t be edible later. However, he later discovered that the peaches on the tree underwent no significant changes. Over three years, the ripe peaches didn’t fall and rot, and the unripe ones showed no signs of maturing.

Even after picking the peaches, they didn’t spoil no matter how long they were stored, remaining exactly as when they were picked, which was very strange.

Coupled with the vast range of the Peach Forest, with about thousands of peach trees, the peaches were enough for Su Yang and Qi’er to eat.

During this time, their primary food source was these peaches.

Moreover, eating many of these peaches did not cause any discomfort. Even after three years of eating peaches, neither felt the slightest bit frustrated. The peaches tasted excellent; even after three years, each meal was delicious.

With Su Yang’s hunting and fishing, along with other found vegetables and fruits, the two managed reasonably well for those three years.

Qi’er washed the peaches and placed them in front of Su Yang with a grin, selecting a large one for him: ”Brother Su, eat this one.”

Su Yang didn’t hesitate, taking the peach and eating it. Qi’er also took a peach and sat across from Su Yang, accompanying him for the meal.

After the meal, Su Yang picked up the tableware to tidy up. At this moment, a sudden sound of chaotic footsteps came.

Su Yang quickly turned his head to see three people quickly running over.

Seeing these three people, Su Yang couldn’t contain his surprise and joy, as this was the first time he had seen someone other than Qi’er in the valley in three years.

He quickly approached to greet the three, but noticed the menacing look in their eyes.

Su Yang immediately became vigilant, gesturing to Qi’er to retreat and not to show herself. At the same time, he kept a hand on his waist, where he had a short dagger found during his explorations, his primary hunting tool for a long time.

The three approached with hostility, not appearing friendly in the least, so Su Yang had to take precautions.
