How could it be?
After hearing that, I was stunned on the spot. After a long while, I came back to my senses. I turned around and looked at Liu Ruxu and Wuyue who were hugging each other. I felt really guilty.
I wanted to see them get married, but I didn't expect that my actions would harm Wuyue.
After pondering for a while, I pulled myself together.
Although Wuyue's situation wasn't good, as long as he had pure Yin energy to nourish him, he would be fine for the time being.
I didn't dare to linger. I hurried to stop Liu Ruxu and carefully told her about Wuyue's condition.
After listening to me, Liu Ruxu didn't blame me. She just wanted to use her Yin energy to nourish Wuyue's soul.
I hurried to stop her. "Wuyue needs pure Yin energy to nourish him. In this aspect, Tong is much better than Liu Ruxu."
Of course, Liu Ruxu knew this. She was too concerned about Wuyue. When I called her, she pulled herself together and begged Tong.
Tong was ready. Without waiting for him to say anything, she separated half of her Yin energy to wrap Wuyue's remnant soul.
Wuyue's soul was weak. He couldn't bear a large amount of Yin energy. Moreover, I can't wrap his soul directly. "
Under his command, Tong gathered her Yin energy into thin threads that wound around Wuyue's body. In the end, Wuyue's body was like a silkworm cocoon.
After Tong was done, I closed my eyes to sense. I felt that Wuyue's soul was much more stable than before. I relaxed a little bit.
Using Yin energy to nourish Wuyue's remnant soul was just a temporary measure.
If we wanted to solve this problem, we needed to find a reliable solution.
I pondered for a while. Liu Ruxu was a Daoist of Mount Longhu. He had grown up in Mount Longhu. He had read a lot of books since he was a child. Perhaps he knew some unorthodox methods.
After I asked him, he looked pensive. After a long moment, he frowned and said, "I seem to have seen some records, but it's been a long time. I can't remember them clearly … I'll go back to Mount Longhu's library to check. Perhaps I can find a solution."
As soon as he said that, I shook my head.
Although he was a Daoist of Mount Longhu, he had betrayed his sect for Wuyue.
When the Daoists of Mount Longhu saw Liu Ruxu in Chiyou's tomb, their first reaction was to kill him.
If he went back, he wouldn't be able to come back.
Originally, saving Wuyue was to let them reunite. If Wuyue survived, but his soul was destroyed, then what was the point of everything?
Moreover, even if his soul perished, he wouldn't be able to find a way to save Wuyue.
If we really need to go to Mount Longhu to find a solution, then I should be the one going. After all, Wuyue's current situation is because of me.
Liu Ruxu. He wanted to say something but I waved my hand to stop him.
He had a doubtful look on his face, as if he didn't understand why I was doing this.
I told him my thoughts and hinted that if he had to go to Mount Longhu, it would be safer for me to go.
After listening to me, he said, "No, I can't. Outsiders can't enter the library of Mount Longhu. Only with the Elder's token can they move freely.
I have always had enmity with Mount Longhu. To me, that place is like a land of tigers and wolves. When the time comes, a battle is unavoidable.
Dragon Tiger Mountain was an orthodox Taoist sect with thousands of years of heritage. There were several people who had reached the Yang Spirit Realm, and there were dozens of Yang Spirit Celestial Masters.
Furthermore, Mount Longhu has a protective formation. If I were to force my way in, these methods would be enough to deal with me.
At that time, he might not even be able to keep his life, let alone obtain the Elder's Token.
I knew he wasn't trying to scare me. Previously, I had been able to escape from the hands of the Daoist priests of Mount Longhu with the help of others.
Now that the Sacrificial Evil Spirit was not around, the pupil and the snake spirit were of little use.
It was unrealistic to force their way into Mount Longhu.
Thinking of that, I also dispelled that idea. However, Liu Ruxu and I couldn't go to Mount Longhu. This was a bit troublesome and I couldn't help but feel a bit annoyed.
Right at this moment, the voice transmission talisman sounded.
I released my spiritual power to check. It was a message from the fatty.
He told me that his injuries had completely healed. Dao Master Guan had asked him to go down the mountain to gain experience. He asked me where I was.
The fatty's news made me snap out of my gloomy mood.
I told him that I had returned to Shenzhen and was now in the Feng Shui Xuan Shop.
I didn't have a clue about the current situation, so I didn't want to dwell on it.
If there was a way to solve Wuyue's problem, I would try my best.
For a moment, the atmosphere in the shop quieted down.
Liu Ruxu wore a gloomy face. She seemed to be thinking about something. After apologizing to me, she went to accompany Wuyue.
When the fatty arrived at the shop, it was already late at night.
I saw that he was full of energy and his cultivation base had improved. I was really happy for him.
As soon as he saw me, he pulled me aside and asked me to tell him about my recent adventures.
I didn't need to hide anything from him, so I started from the time I left Mount Huangguan.
However, halfway through the story, I found that Liu Ruxu's aura had disappeared.
My heart sank. Did something happen to him?
With this in mind, I broke off my conversation with the fatty and hurried into the room.
There was only the silkworm cocoon with Wuyue's remnant soul in the room. Liu Ruxu's figure was nowhere to be seen.
However, there was a small line of words carved on the wall. It was left by Liu Ruxu.
It said that he had pondered for a long time and had decided to go to Mount Longhu to explore.
If he didn't return, he begged me to keep it a secret from Wuyue.
After reading this, my heart was filled with complicated feelings that I couldn't describe.
I knew that Liu Ruxu was a prudent person, and that he had made this decision after careful consideration.
I just hoped that he could return safely.
The fatty saw all of this, and he seemed to notice that my face was a little heavy. Although he was curious, he didn't ask me about it.
Instead, I looked at him and took the initiative to tell him about it. I also asked him if he could perform a divination for Liu Ruxu so that I could be more prepared.
After listening to me, the fatty immediately agreed. He sat cross-legged on the sand and closed his eyes.
After a while, he slowly opened his eyes and told me that the divination was a good sign.
His words made me heave a sigh of relief.
It seemed that Liu Ruxu could find a way to solve Wuyue's problem this time. Fortunately, I didn't have anything urgent to do. After he came back, I could deal with it.
Since I knew the result, I didn't want to dwell on it anymore. I chatted with the fatty.
We chatted for the whole night.
The next morning, Liu Ruxu flew back.
His soul was a little weak. I guessed he had been hurt.
Seeing him like that, I hurried to ask, "What happened?"
He waved his hand and didn't want to talk about it. "He found a solution in the library of Mount Longhu."
I knew this from the fatty's divination, but I still wanted to ask him what he had found.
He paused and told me everything he had read in the book.
From him, I learned that after he had rushed to Mount Longhu, he had sneaked into the library and searched for a whole night. Finally, he had found an ancient book.
It recorded something that made him feel that it could solve Wuyue's problem.
According to the book, thousands of years ago, an almighty Daoist master had used the Shennong Cauldron to regenerate his flesh and bones after his death. He had lived in the human world for another hundred years.
I was surprised. The Shennong Cauldron was one of the ten great divine tools, also known as the World Creation Cauldron.
It was an ancient cauldron that Shennong had used to refine hundreds of medicines in ancient times. Because it had accumulated the Qi of countless spiritual medicines for thousands of years, it was said that it could refine peerless divine medicines that even the gods in Heaven couldn't obtain.
Not only that, but there were other mysterious powers hidden within.
The expert recorded in the book had relied on the Shennong Cauldron to reconstruct his body.
In that case, Wuyue's situation was worth a try.
However, I didn't know where the Shennong Cauldron was.
I immediately asked Liu Ruxu if there was any record of the Shennong Cauldron's whereabouts in the book.
He shook his head and told me, "There's no specific record in the book. It only mentioned that the Shennong Cauldron recently appeared in the Medicine King Valley."
As soon as he finished talking, the fatty answered.
He looked pensive and mumbled, "The Medicine King Valley?"
Seeing him like that, I was a little suspicious. Could it be that the fatty knew something?
Then, I asked him about it.
After listening to me, the fatty didn't immediately respond. After a while, he said, "Didn't you ask me to pay attention to Martial Uncle Nangong's movements?
A few days ago, I saw him at Mount Huang Guanshan, but he was discussing something with my master, so I didn't go and disturb him.
I only vaguely heard them mention the Medicine King Valley.
Now that I heard this name again, I feel that it's a little strange. "
The fatty's words raised a cloud of suspicion in my heart.
Ever since the incident with Grandpa Yuan, I noticed that everything that Nangong had done over the years was more or less related to me.
The fatty said that he had accidentally heard Nangong and Spiritual Master Guan talking about the Medicine King Valley. Our current target was also the Medicine King Valley. In my opinion, this didn't seem to be a coincidence.
Nangong must have taken action in the Medicine King Valley, and this matter must be related to me.
In that case, I was somewhat convinced that the Shennong Cauldron was in the Medicine King Valley.
Thinking about this, I didn't delay any further and signaled everyone to leave for the Medicine King Valley.
Of course, Liu Ruxu didn't object, but Wuyue had to be taken away.
After thinking about it again and again, I signaled him to carry her back into the Xiang Liu Pouch and keep an eye on her situation.
After Liu Ruxu and Wuyue entered the Xiang Liu Pouch, I went to check on Zhang Kanwen's situation.
Fortunately, he was talented and had the cultivation of a Heavenly Master, so his injuries had recovered by forty to fifty percent.
I didn't disturb him and just told him that I was going on a long trip, so I asked him to take care of the store.
