From their affectionate looks, it wasn't difficult to understand that the two of them had already untied the knot in their hearts.
It seemed that the fatty's efforts were fruitful. I was gratified that he could have such a good fate.
Since that was the case, I brought the two of them back to the village.
Since then, the matter of the Medicine King Valley had been completely resolved.
However, I wasn't used to the sudden leisure.
However, the fatty's injuries hadn't healed yet, so there was no need to leave in a hurry.
After a few days, the fatty had finally recovered, and Bai Ling had also fully recovered.
Recently, the two of them had been going in and out together. Their words were filled with love, as if they were a pair of immortal lovers.
Looking at the fatty's appearance, it would be too cruel to let him leave with me.
With that thought, I gave up on the idea and planned to leave alone.
I found Bai Ling and told her about my intention to leave the Medicine King Valley.
After hearing that, she looked a little confused and asked if I had anything else to do.
I was stunned and pondered for a while. It seemed that there was nothing urgent to deal with, but I wasn't used to being so idle here.
After hearing my words, Bai Ling didn't know how to persuade me, so she quickly gave the fatty a look.
The fatty naturally understood. He moved in front of me and said softly, "Third Baby, since you have nothing to do, why don't you stay here?
It's not easy to have some free time, so it's good to stay here and look at the flowers and plants.
Moreover, the Medicine King Valley is rich in spiritual energy, so it's very suitable for cultivation. "
The fatty's words made sense.
Ever since I had advanced to the Yang God Celestial Master rank, although my strength was much stronger than before, I was still far from being able to save Tao Wu.
It hadn't been half a year yet. If I returned to the Fire God Temple, I wouldn't be able to see Tao Wu.
Suddenly, I really had nowhere to go. It would be better to listen to the fatty's words and stay in the Medicine King Valley to cultivate.
However, although the Medicine King Valley was rich in spiritual energy, it wouldn't be of much help to me.
With that thought, I suddenly realized that ever since I had practiced the Heaven Devouring Art, I hadn't read the Death Scripture for a long time. It was rare for me to have such free time, so I had enough time to learn a new cultivation technique.
With that thought, I agreed to the fatty's request.
Seeing that I had agreed to stay in the Medicine King Valley, the two of them were quite happy. They told me that if I needed anything.
After chatting for a while, I didn't disturb the two of them. I planned to find a secluded place to practice my new cultivation technique.
Eventually, I decided to go to the cave where Bai Ling had been treating his wounds.
That place was a little remote, and unless there was something important, the people of Medicine King Valley would not go there to disturb them.
Having made up his mind, he didn't waste any more time and directly flew toward the col.
Fifteen minutes later, I landed in the middle of the cave.
I was just standing outside the cave earlier, so I didn't know what was going on inside.
Now that he looked at it, the cave seemed to have some craftsmanship. It was obvious that the people of the Valley of the Medicine Masters had specially excavated it.
However, the cave was very obvious, and there was nothing special about it. It was unknown why this place was specially chosen as a place to recuperate.
I was extremely curious and didn't immediately start cultivating. Instead, I wandered around the cave.
I made a new discovery after this trip.
At the end of the cave, there was a smaller space.
The walls here actually had Nangong's aura.
Not only that, but there was also an aura of Dao Qi.
These two auras were very weak, and with my strength, if I didn't pay too much attention, I would have easily ignored them.
What puzzled me was that this was the territory of Medicine King Valley, so it wasn't difficult to understand why Nangong's aura was in this cave. Perhaps he had also been treating his wounds here.
However, it was a little strange that there was a Taoist aura in this place.
Previously, the fatty had brought Bai Ling here to recuperate. If this aura was left by the fatty, then it was understandable.
However, the fatty was always by my side, so how could I not know his aura? Moreover, with the fatty's strength, even if the aura he left behind was weak, it would still be detected by me immediately.
Moreover, this Taoist aura seemed to have been here for a long time, almost the same time as when Nangong had arrived.
Could it be that that person had a grudge against Nangong and was chasing him here?
This thought suddenly appeared in my mind, but was immediately denied by me.
Nangong had always been a meticulous person, and it was difficult to find his traces. Since I knew him, I had never heard of him having a grudge against anyone.
Moreover, Nangong had previously said that this Medicine King Valley was the only remaining branch of the Sorcerer Tribe. Even if he was being chased by an expert, he would definitely not be lured here, or else the Sorcerer Tribe here would have been destroyed long ago.
Thinking of this, I suddenly had a strange thought. Could it be that Nangong had made a deal with that person, and that was why he had specially brought him here?
However, the world was so big, so why did Nangong bring him to Medicine King Valley, and even choose this cave to recuperate in?
Could it be that there was something special about this cave?
The thought in my mind wasn't without foundation.
Previously, I was wondering why the people of Medicine King Valley dug a cave here, but I'm sure it wasn't just to find a secluded place to recuperate.
However, I had already been here for a while, and other than the two auras on the wall, I didn't find anything else.
Since this place was dug by the people of Medicine King Valley, I would have to go back to the village to ask if I wanted to know more.
Right now, I was very concerned about anything related to Nangong.
Although he had already told me what he was planning, there were still many things that he hadn't told me.
Moreover, when I had returned to the Fire God Temple, I had learned from Shang Qi that everything that Nangong had planned was under Emperor Ku's control.
This meant that in essence, Nangong and I had the same fate. We were both pawns of the ancient people.
Although this was our fate, how could I not want to know what was going on?
However, Shang Qi would never tell me the reason. If I wanted to find the truth, I had to start from Nangong.
Thus, the current situation really made me curious, and I wanted to understand it clearly.
Having made up my mind, I didn't stay here any longer. I turned around and flew out of the cave, heading back to the village.
When I returned to the village, I saw the fatty and Bai Ling walking up the mountain hand in hand.
They seemed to have noticed me, and immediately stopped and looked at me.
After I landed, they walked over and asked me where I had been.
I was quite anxious about the cave, so I didn't pay attention to their words. I asked Bai Ling if she knew the origin of the cave.
When Bai Ling heard me suddenly ask about it, a trace of doubt flashed across her face.
However, she might have seen my anxious expression, so she didn't say much and immediately told me that the cave had been there for thousands of years.
According to the elders, it was the tribe leader who gave the order to dig a cave there, but no one mentioned why.
Naturally, she wouldn't hide anything from me. However, the more she did this, the more I felt that the cave was strange.
Thinking about this, I probed her and asked if she had noticed anything unusual about the cave.
Unexpectedly, she had a dull expression and looked at me while shaking her head.
Her reaction was understandable. The Medicine King Valley had been in seclusion for thousands of years, and some of their thoughts were already deeply ingrained. Questioning the elders was disobedience, so she definitely wouldn't dare to offend them.
This was something that I had neglected previously.
It seemed that the people of the Medicine King Valley wouldn't know what was special about the cave.
However, I had learned about everything from the tribe's ancient books.
Since ancient times, some important matters wouldn't be told orally, but recorded in writing to preserve them for thousands of years.
In this way, I might be able to find information about the cave in the tribe's ancient books.
Thinking about this, I told Bai Ling what I was thinking, and asked if I could go and read the tribe's ancient books.
After hearing this, Bai Ling didn't immediately respond, but held her chin with one hand, as though she was weighing in her heart.
The fatty at the side also seemed to see that this matter was very important to me, but he didn't persuade her.
Perhaps he could understand like me that the tribe's ancient books could be said to be confidential, and even the tribe members couldn't casually flip through them.
Although I had the identity of a Saint, I wasn't a member of the witch tribe. If I were to casually flip through them, I was afraid that many secrets would be revealed.
However, if I used my identity as a Saint to pressure her, Bai Ling wouldn't say much.
However, if I did so, I was afraid that it would hurt the harmony between us. At that time, I would be in the wrong in front of Nangong.
After a while, Bai Ling still didn't respond. It seemed that this matter was indeed a little difficult for her.
Seeing this, I could only take a step back and indicated for her to send someone to check it out. If there was any relevant information, she could just inform me.
Seeing this, Bai Ling's body relaxed, and she quickly agreed.
Then, she excused herself and left, telling me to give this order to the others.
After she left, the fatty came to me and thanked me in a low voice.
His words surprised me, but I immediately understood. Perhaps he was thanking me for not making things difficult for Bai Ling.
Considering the friendship between the fatty and me, he didn't need to thank me. But now, he was treating me like an outsider. It seemed he really cared about Bai Ling.
I didn't reply to him. I was afraid that Bai Ling wouldn't come back for a while. I wanted to take this chance to have a good chat with the fatty.
The fatty seemed to know what I was thinking. He took me to stroll around.
On the way, I asked the fatty, "What do you plan to do next?"
Of course, it was just a casual chat.
What I meant was that the fatty should quickly give Bai Ling a status.
The fatty had suffered a lot while staying with me. Moreover, he was about the same age as me. I had been married for many years, but he still hadn't gotten married yet.
Now that he and Bai Ling were in love with each other, it was a good opportunity. The sooner they got married, the sooner Uncle Lin could enjoy his family.
Apart from that, I had another consideration.
The fatty and Bai Ling were the masters of the divine tools. Once the time was right, they would gather outside the Mountain and Sea Realm.
As soon as the Mountain and Sea Realm opened, the human and monster races would clash again.
At that time, it would be a reign of terror. Everyone would be in danger.
I didn't want them to regret it.
The fatty seemed to understand my intention. He told me that he had an idea. He planned to go back to his hometown and bring Uncle Lin to the Medicine King Valley. His family would live there.
Seeing the fatty look forward to his future life, I didn't have the heart to tell him about my worries.
