As soon as Lu Zhenyang left, I sat on the ground.
Although I had recovered my Primordial Qi during the fight between Lu Zhenyang and the Taoist from Mount Longhu, my body that was severely injured by Lu Zhenyang didn't recover.
After sitting down, I sat cross-legged and circulated my Primordial Qi to nourish my body.
When I woke up again, my injuries were temporarily suppressed. However, when I moved my body, I felt that every bone and joint in my body was aching.
After moving a little more, I felt more comfortable. I propped myself up and looked around.
The broken furniture from the fight had been cleaned. Although it wasn't restored to its original state, it was more or less organized.
In the living room, Wang Yongjun and Wang Kun were chatting on the chairs. When they saw me enter, they stood up.
"Brother Zhou, how are you?"
Wang Yongjun pulled my hand and asked anxiously. "I heard from Wang Kun that someone came to seek revenge today. After a fierce battle, you were injured …"
"It wasn't just a fierce battle …" Before I could say anything, Zhang Kanwen seemed to have heard the commotion. He walked over and patted my shoulder. "Zhou Yi, will that guy come back?"
"He shouldn't be for a while."
I shook my head and comforted him. "Lu Zhenyang used up a lot of energy today. Moreover, the three masters from the Celestial Master Sect died. It's impossible that Mount Longhu didn't notice. They will most likely find Lu Zhenyang. He won't be able to deal with us for the time being."
Zhang Kanwen heaved a sigh of relief. His furrowed eyebrows relaxed slightly. He nodded. "That's good. At least we can take a breather."
Then, he turned to ask me. "Lu Zhenyang is so arrogant. Is there no one in the Metaphysics Society to stop him?
After President Gu passed away, Vice President Yang took over as the president. I'm going to call the Metaphysics Society to ask what they have to say. "
Vice President Yang?
It should be Yang Shilong. So he took over as the Metaphysics Society's president.
I hesitated for a while before shaking my head at Zhang Kanwen. "Don't ask. Lu Zhenyang's cultivation is extraordinary. The Metaphysics Society can't control him. Moreover, looking at Lu Zhenyang, I'm afraid that he has completely separated himself from the Lu family. Otherwise, he wouldn't have killed the Celestial Master of Mount Longhu."
Zhang Kanwen was stunned. After a moment of silence, he finally nodded dejectedly.
Lu Zhenyang's cultivation was too high, so high that even the Metaphysics Association couldn't interfere. Zhang Kanwen and I couldn't do anything about it, so we could only take it one step at a time.
I looked around and asked Zhang Kanwen, "Where are the corpses of the Daoist priests from Mount Longhu?
How did you handle it? "
Zhang Kanwen pointed at Wang Yongjun. "Uncle Wang is here to help with this."
Wang Yongjun interrupted, "I found a few people and got a few funeral home cars to preserve the bodies of the Taoist priests. We went all the way to Eagle Lake in Jiangxi and sent them to Mount Longhu."
I was bewildered. I thought he would tell me to throw the body somewhere else. I didn't expect him to have such thoughts.
The murderer, Lu Zhenyang, was also sent back to Mount Longhu. This should prevent Mount Longhu from pursuing responsibility to the greatest extent, right?
Just as I relaxed a little, I furrowed my brows again.
According to Mount Longhu's style of doing things, even if we sent the bodies back, I'm afraid they wouldn't let it go.
Perhaps seeing my strange expression, Zhang Kanwen said, "Zhou Yi, don't worry. Uncle Wang found some outlaws. They don't know the situation here, nor do they know what's in the funeral car. They don't even know Uncle Wang's identity. Even if the people from Mount Longhu search their souls, they won't be able to implicate us."
After hearing his explanation, I felt relieved.
Zhang Kanwen understood the methods of the Metaphysics Association very well. Since he had decided to send the bodies back to Mount Longhu, there shouldn't be any mistakes.
I didn't mention it. I looked around and asked him, "How are the others? Where's the fatty?"
"It's not a big deal. He's just exhausted and has consumed too much Daoist energy. He's cultivating upstairs."
I nodded, feeling slightly guilty. At that time, the situation was urgent. I didn't even discuss with the fatty before giving the Monster Refining Gourd to Lu Zhenyang. Speaking of which, the Monster Refining Gourd belonged to the fatty. I didn't have the right to deal with it. I felt sorry for the fatty. I could only find a chance in the future to get the Monster Refining Gourd back and return it to the fatty.
Besides that, the qilin was still in the Monster Refining Gourd. I didn't have time to call the qilin out of the Monster Refining Gourd in a hurry.
Lu Zhenyang wasn't the owner of the Monster Refining Gourd, so it was unlikely that he could activate the Monster Refining Gourd. As long as the qilin hid inside and didn't come out, it shouldn't be a big deal.
As I thought about it in a daze, my hatred for Lu Zhenyang grew.
It was a pity that Yang God Celestial Master's cultivation was like a natural moat. I couldn't even think of taking revenge.
Just as I was feeling depressed and thinking about these things, Wang Yongjun suddenly asked me, "Mister Zhou, I heard from Kanwen … that Wang Li's illness can be cured?"
Hearing that, I retracted my thoughts and nodded. "I have some clues."
After coming back, I was distracted by Mount Longhu and Lu Zhenyang, so I had forgotten the most important thing.
After sorting out my thoughts, I told him, "Now that I've become a Celestial Master and I've found the seven-star mugwort, we'll know if I can cure Wang Li's illness later.
It's hard to say if he can be cured, but at the very least, he can temporarily suppress it and delay it for some time. "
"That's good, that's good." Wang Yongjun rubbed his hands excitedly. The gratitude on his face was beyond words.
In fact, I was also very grateful to Wang Yongjun. Ever since I'd first come to Shenzhen, he'd helped me a lot. This time, it was thanks to his help with the Celestial Master's corpse in Mount Longhu. Otherwise, although Zhang Kanwen and I had high cultivation, we wouldn't have known how to deal with it. In the end, we'd most likely have to abandon this Fengshui metaphysics shop and hide elsewhere.
Sometimes, the methods of the mortal world were more useful than metaphysical methods.
Zhang Kanwen stood up and patted my shoulder. "Wang Li's illness shouldn't be delayed any longer. How are you now?
If you're fine, let's get started. "
I nodded. Although my body was still a little sore, my cultivation had completely recovered. It wouldn't affect my handling of Wang Li's matter.
I followed Zhang Kanwen upstairs to Wang Li's room. When I pushed the door open, Wang Li was lying motionless on the crib. Wang Kun's wife was sitting beside him.
"I'll use my family's secret technique to warm Wang Li's body first." Then, Zhang Kanwen turned over and sat cross-legged on the bed.
Zhang Kanwen gently raised his hand, and the Yin Yang Yama Brush rose into the air. It tapped a few times in the air, and dense Taoist energy gushed out, wrapping around Wang Li.
Zhang Kanwen's expression was solemn. He formed a seal with both hands and chanted a series of incantations. The Yin Yang Yama Brush seemed to have a mind of its own. It swayed a few times in the air and flew toward Wang Li.
At this time, Wang Li also woke up. He opened his eyes wide and looked curiously at the Yin Yang Yama Brush dancing in front of him.
Zhang Kanwen's family's secret technique was quite mysterious. The Taoist energy flowed exquisitely, just like a precise instrument. Every wisp of Taoist energy was used properly, without a single bit of it being wasted.
The Yin Yang Yama Brush glided around Wang Li's body as if it was being controlled by an invisible hand. It slid across Wang Li's body as if it was writing. It looked very rhythmic.
While the Yin Yang Yama Brush was drawing, transparent waves appeared in the air. They gradually condensed into seven-colored lines that floated in the air.
I looked at Zhang Kanwen's temples, which had beads of sweat trickling down. I couldn't help but feel moved. This fellow had been injured before. Even if he only used his family's secret technique to nourish Wang Li's body, it wouldn't be easy for him.
The lines slowly pressed down. After more than ten minutes, they finally fell and melted into Wang Li's skin, faintly flashing.
After seeing Zhang Kanwen finish casting his technique, I asked, "Big Brother Zhang, how's the situation?"
"It's still the same."
Zhang Kanwen shook his head with a dejected look on his face. "This spell of mine is about using softness to overcome hardness, using a gentle force to nourish the body and bones. However, the evil aura in Wang Li's body is too strong. Before the nourishing force can take effect, the evil thing has already dispersed most of it. The effect it can have is really limited."
"What about the seven-star mugwort?
How do I use it? "I nodded and asked him.
"I'll have to rely on you."
Zhang Kanwen looked solemn. "Later, I'll use a technique to activate the seven-star mugwort. Then, you'll use your shaman energy to pour the energy of the seven-star mugwort into Wang Li's body and gather it on the black spots."
"Okay." I nodded and took out the seven-star mugwort from my pocket and gave it to Zhang Kanwen.
Zhang Kanwen took the seven-star mugwort and gently slid his fingers along the stem. A wisp of Taoist energy flowed from his fingertips to the seven-star mugwort.
Just then, something strange happened.
The seven-star mugwort was originally just an ordinary blade of grass. The only difference was the faint star spots on it. Ordinary people wouldn't be able to tell it apart when it was placed in a pile of mugwort.
However, after coming into contact with Zhang Kanwen's Taoist energy, the seven-star mugwort suddenly emitted a five-colored light. The light flickered a few times before slowly fading away. I saw seven shining light spots on the stem of the mugwort. When I looked closely, I saw seven white lumps that seemed to have grown out of the stem.
Zhang Kanwen stretched out two fingers and gently pinched the mugwort as he asked, "Do you find this seven-star familiar?"
I looked up and saw that the arrangement of the seven stars was indeed familiar. It was exactly the same as the Big Dipper.
"Yes, it's the Big Dipper."
Zhang Kanwen sighed and looked at the seven-star mugwort in his hand with a nostalgic expression. "When I first started cultivating with Master, he taught me how to recognize the strange flowers and plants in the metaphysics world. The first one I recognized was this seven-star mugwort. Master said that the seven-star mugwort was formed when a wisp of the energy of the stars in the sky drifted to the human world and was absorbed by ordinary mugwort … The past is still vivid in my mind, but now things are the same, but people have changed."
I didn't expect Zhang Kanwen to suddenly mention this. I didn't know how to respond, so I patted his shoulder to comfort him.
"Now, it's the seven-star mugwort's turn to save the next generation of Mount Wen. Zhou Yi, don't you think this is a kind of reincarnation?"
The sadness on Zhang Kanwen's face quickly faded, and he smiled brightly. He put the seven-star mugwort on Wang Li's chest and said to me, "It's up to you now."
I took a deep breath and nodded. I sat down by the bed and reached out to hold Wang Li's wrist.
To be honest, I was very nervous right now. The seven-star mugwort wasn't easy to obtain. If anything went wrong, there wouldn't be a second seven-star mugwort for me to use.
On the other side, Wang Kun, his wife, and Wang Yongjun were also looking at me nervously. Wang Kun's wife even closed her eyes tightly and put her palms together on her chest. She kept muttering to herself and didn't even dare to look in my direction.
I turned my head and silently urged the shaman energy in my body to slowly flow into Wang Li's body.
Wang Li was very quiet. He blinked his big eyes at me as if he didn't know what I was planning to do. From time to time, he would raise his hand and slap it on the edge of the bed, making Wang Yongjun, who was behind me, breathe rapidly.
I looked at Wang Li without blinking and held my breath at the same time. I let the shaman energy circulate in my body to make it gentler. Then, I slowly increased the amount of shaman energy I infused.
A dark green light also appeared on Little Wang Li's body. It flowed along with the increase of my shaman qi and true essence. When the dark green light touched the Seven Star Mugwort, the seven stars on the Seven Star Mugwort suddenly lit up and gave off a sweet fragrance.
At the same time, I felt something else. I could faintly feel a gentle power slowly flowing out of the Seven Star Mugwort and seeping into Little Wang Li's body.
I controlled the shaman energy and slowly infused it into Wang Li's body. At the same time, my other hand slowly condensed the Dao energy.
I was wary of the evil spirit in Wang Li's body. Although the evil spirit hadn't awakened yet, I understood that if I did anything that would threaten his descent into this world, the evil spirit would react immediately.
The shaman Qi in my body continuously flowed into Little Wang Li's body. It was hard to imagine that such a tiny infant's body could actually withstand the enormous power of my Heavenly Master realm. Not to mention an ordinary adult, even a cultivator who had just reached Glory realm would explode from such power. However, Little Wang Li didn't show any signs of discomfort. He continued to blink his eyes at me, as though he didn't feel anything at all.
After a few minutes, I could clearly feel the resistance. Little Wang Li seemed to have finally felt that something was wrong. He became restless, and his chubby little hands waved more frequently.
This was the moment I had failed the last time. The last time I had tried to use shaman energy to help Wang Li expel the evil spirit, I had encountered increasing resistance. At that time, my cultivation wasn't high enough and I couldn't supply so much shaman energy.
Now that I had become a Sky Master, the shaman energy in my body had become shaman energy. No matter the quality or quantity, it was completely different from before. I didn't believe that I couldn't beat that evil spirit this time!
Feeling the increasing resistance, I took a deep breath and slowly increased the speed of infusing the shaman energy in my hand!
As time goes by, the resistance I'll face will become greater and greater. It seems that the more witchcraft energy I send in, the more resistance there will be.
