"Please think of a way. Wuyou is my best friend. You must help me save her." Fang Ruotang looked at Du Zhong with a pleading expression.

Du Zhong said with difficulty, "Everything else is easy to talk about, but my spiritual root has been destroyed. No matter how powerful I am, I can't conjure up a spiritual root out of thin air."

"Conjure a spiritual root out of thin air?" Fang Ruotang was taken aback, then said, "You can't, but I can! I happen to have a usable single spiritual root."

"Huh?" Du Zhong seemed to have heard something celestial, repeating incredulously, "What does 'usable single spiritual root' mean?"

Fang Ruotang didn't hide anything from Du Zhong and directly told him that she had killed several evil cultivators and stripped them of their spiritual roots.

Du Zhong's brows remained furrowed. He didn't know the female cultivator in front of him, and he wouldn't bear the consequences of the Heavenly Dao for her sake.

"But changing my spiritual root... I can't do it."

Fang Ruotang realized what was happening and remembered that when she changed her seventh brother's spiritual root last time, she already knew about the limitations of this world.

"It's alright. You repair her Qi Sea, and I'll take care of the spiritual root replacement."

Du Zhong glanced at the female cultivator whose face had regained hope. He wanted to advise her in private, but seeing that Fang Ruotang was holding her tightly, he hesitated for a moment and then reminded her.

"The karmic backlash from replacing someone's spiritual root is probably beyond your capacity to bear. Sect Master Fang, please think it over. There's no need to destroy your own foundation for the sake of a disciple. The sect still needs you for its development."

"It's alright, I'm a favorite of Heaven, He doesn't care about me."

Eucommia: ...

He doesn't believe it!

But inside, she was consumed by jealousy, like ants gnawing at her.

Seeing that Du Zhong remained silent, Fang Ruotang assumed he did not believe her, so she emphasized again, "Believe me, this is not the first time. I changed my seventh brother's spiritual root before, and there were no problems at all."

Du Zhong: Hehe!

I really want to fight these darlings of Heaven.

"Repairing the shattered Qi Sea requires Nirvana Pills, and one of the ingredients for Nirvana Pills is Phoenix Heart Blood, which I do not currently possess."

"I have!"

Fang Ruotang instantly summoned Da Mei.

He explained the current situation to her and promised her a lot of benefits, which coaxed Da Mei into donating blood willingly.

Du Zhong: The person is numb.

But when he received Da Mei's heart's blood, his fingers trembled, and he couldn't help but look at Fang Ruotang excitedly, asking, "This batch of Nirvana Pills?"

"Besides the one Wuyou used, we produced a few pills, and we'll split them in half."

"I'll take eight, you take two. Compared to Phoenix Blood, Mermaid Tears are far more important; there are only a handful in the entire Cloud Deep Continent..."

"I have mermaid tears too. I'll send you a basketful later. Enough talk, hurry up and go refine the pills!"

Du Zhong was startled and jumped up physically.

"A basket?"

Fang Ruotang paused for a moment: "We can't have a whole basketful. My older sister needs to keep some beads to make magical artifacts, but a few dozen beads shouldn't be a problem."

"Okay, okay! Half and half, one for each of us!"

Du Zhong was overjoyed.

Fang Ruotang is such a lucky girl!

When did mermaid tears become such a common commodity, so ubiquitous that they could be sold in baskets?

Nirvana Pills are precious because they can repair a broken Qi Sea, but they are not easy to refine. Phoenix Blood gritted his teeth, found the Blazing Winged Phoenix clan, and killed one or two phoenixes to obtain them.

However, the Mermaid's Tear is in the hands of various powerful forces, and it is one of the few remaining. In any case, apart from knowing that his Medicine King Valley has one as a legacy, he has not heard of any other sects having it.

Du Zhong went to refine the Nirvana Pill, and Fang Ruotang carried Wuyou to a chair in the room. The bleeding from her abdominal wound had stopped.

"Don't worry, it'll be fine in a bit."

"Um!"

"By the way, I have one each of the metal, ice, fire, and wood spiritual roots, as well as two dark spiritual roots. Which spiritual root would you like to exchange it for?"

Wuyou hesitated for a moment and didn't speak immediately. Fang Ruotang asked again before she answered nervously.

"Such a good spiritual root, did you replace it for me? Wan Tang and the others didn't use it."

"My fourth sister? She definitely wouldn't want to switch."

"ah?"

“These were taken from several male evil cultivators. My fourth sister, with her fastidious nature, would definitely find them dirty. As for my eldest sister, she doesn’t have the best single-elemental spiritual root, but she’s not bad either. Besides, she has her brother-in-law, and her cultivation level is already higher than all of yours, so she’s even less likely to change them.”

Fang Ruotang replied with a laugh, and said, "If it weren't for your special circumstances this time, I wouldn't have changed it for you. Just think about it, wouldn't you find it disgusting to have a stinky man's thing used on you?"

Wuyou's expression changed several times. She felt nauseous and no longer thought that this single-elemental spiritual root was so precious. She just thought of it as rotten meat and bones.

"Anyway, we're all young! There are so many opportunities in the Cloud Deep Continent. What if we have another chance to find a spiritual root in the future? So there's no rush."

How could Fang Ruotang not cherish friends like Wuyou who wholeheartedly supported her and were so caring? She would definitely lend them a hand whenever she had the chance.

Most importantly, Tianyi Sect cannot do without Wuyou! She certainly wouldn't be able to manage all the big and small affairs of Tianyi Sect on her own, but Wuyou can manage them perfectly.

"But don't feel disgusted. I soaked it in spiritual water, so just think of it as a stinky bone being cleaned up!" Fang Ruotang blinked her big eyes, offering innocent comfort.

Worry-free: ...

It was something she never dared to dream of, but Fang Ruotang's words made her feel utterly resistant.

"So, have you decided which type of spiritual root you want?"

"What is a dark spiritual root?" Wuyou stopped struggling and started thinking seriously, but she didn't understand anything about the dark spiritual root that she was hearing about for the first time.
