Chapter 113 Charming People Is Useless

"Xiuyuan? What are you looking at?" The head of the Qi family walked over and stood beside his son.

Qi Xiuyuan looked over and asked, "Father, how is Mother?"

"It's still the same, but her life is saved." As he said this, the head of the Qi family smiled. This smile was one of satisfaction, and he was really satisfied.

He had seen his wife's outburst before, and he knew exactly what would happen after such an outburst. So, he was truly happy that she was still alive, even though... he didn't know when she would wake up. But for him, this was also very satisfying.

As long as his wife was alive, he was content.

Seeing the smile on his father's face, Qi Xiuyuan was silent for a moment, and then he spoke after a moment: "Father, what if Mother can't wake up?"

"Xiuyuan, one must have hope. Besides, even if your mother can't wake up, as long as she is alive, father will be very happy."

Qi Xiuyuan fell silent again. He seemed unable to understand his father's mentality.

But, is it really impossible to understand?

Suddenly, Qi Xiuyuan felt a sharp pain in his heart.

Really, don’t you understand?

No, what he understood was that he had buried his understanding with his own hands...

Finally, the head of the Qi family looked at his son who was a little dazed, patted him on the shoulder, and left.

Qi Xiuyuan was a little dazed, thinking about his father's words, and then Shen Yichuan's voice rang in his ears.

"Xiu Yuan."

Qi Xiuyuan's body trembled slightly, and he raised his eyelids, "Chen Yichuan?"

"Yes, it's me. I can only use my consciousness to get in now. The Tower of Babel still can't be opened. But I have good news for you. Those people are still on the bottom floor. They haven't been able to go up one floor in the past few days. So I think that by the time I can open the Tower of Babel, they won't be able to reach the seventh floor where you are."

Qi Xiuyuan was also a little surprised when he heard this, "So they are still on the first floor?"

"Yes, they are all on that floor. None of them have been able to leave the pool. By the way, how is your mother?"

"I gave her a lot of magical medicine and used some methods to stabilize her injuries, but I don't know when she will wake up."

"Don't worry, she will definitely wake up." Shen Yichuan comforted: "By the way, your mother still can't wake up, is there any elixir she needs? Or do you know any method to wake her up?"

"If it's a spiritual medicine, the two spiritual medicines, Zijing Longli and Wanxinru, should be enough. But these two spiritual medicines have become extinct in the entire Xuanhuang Continent. Maybe we have to go to a higher plane to find them, but that's not something that can be done in a short time." Qi Xiuyuan's voice was heavy.

"Can it only be found in higher planes?" Shen Yichuan thought for a moment and said, "Then it all depends on luck. Have you forgotten that we still have a few friends here?"

Qi Xiuyuan was stunned.

Shen Yichuan smiled and said, "The spiritual medicine you mentioned should be quite precious, and those people are obviously of extraordinary status, and must be from a higher plane, so it is possible that they have such spiritual medicine. Even if not, as long as they have spiritual medicine, then there may be a substitute. Of course, the premise is that those people have to hand it over, but now they are trapped here, so this matter is still feasible."

Qi Xiuyuan's heart skipped a beat when he heard this. After thinking about it carefully, he found that it was indeed very feasible.

"But we are just trapping them temporarily, right?" Qi Xiuyuan said.

"That may not be the case. My injuries haven't healed yet, so I naturally don't have the time to deal with them. But if they can't break out of this Tower of Babel, then they're not just trapped here temporarily. I have a way to trap them forever. Even if I don't have the power to kill them, I can still trap them. Have you forgotten? With our current cultivation level, we can only barely reach the seventh floor. Even if they break through the seventh floor, there are still the last two floors. This is the Tower of Babel. Even beings like the Gold Devourer are imprisoned here. I don't believe they can be more powerful than the Golden Clan!"

Qi Xiuyuan pondered for a moment, then slowly nodded, "Okay, then you should heal your injuries as soon as possible."

"Okay, wait for me inside."

"Your injury..." Qi Xiuyuan pursed his lips, "Are the elixirs enough?"

Shen Yichuan felt the worry in the other person's voice. Regardless of whether the protagonist was worried about his mother or really worried about himself, he accepted the worry.

So, Shen Yichuan smiled: "Don't worry, there are enough spiritual medicines, and I also have objects with energy here, so what we lack now is just time. Take good care of your mother. As long as we hold on for another two months, we will be able to find a solution."

"Okay." Qi Xiuyuan nodded.

Shen Yichuan added: "As for that Martial Saint, let him hold on. When I can deal with that woman, I will definitely find a way to make her hand over the antidote."

This woman was naturally Lin Jiaojiao. The bone-eroding powder of this woman was indeed very vicious. Qi Xiuyuan had tried many methods, but the human-pig martial saint of the Qi family could not relieve the pain. Fortunately, he was still alive, but the pain was so severe that it made people feel worse than death.

But no matter what, as long as you are alive, there is hope.

Therefore, the Human Pig Martial Saint is still holding on.

"Okay." Qi Xiuyuan responded again.

Shen Yichuan finally said: "Then I'll go out first, take care of yourself."

"...Yeah." Qi Xiuyuan responded softly.

Shen Yichuan finally left.

Qi Xiuyuan looked in the direction of the void, his expression gradually became complicated, and he was a little confused.

So, this person is really not that person...

Even though it's the same body, the soul is different, it's really different...

He really didn't expect that he would receive this person's favors so many times... He also really didn't expect that person to be so... nice to him...

What he didn’t know was, what does such goodness actually mean?

And how long can it last?

Although he could still rely on his own strength to threaten the other party in the past, but in fact the other party's strength is no less than his now, not to mention that the other party has such a heaven-defying existence as the Tower of Babel, so if that person doesn't want to stay... he certainly can't do anything to the other party.

And that person...will he leave?

He couldn't help but think of the other party's previous statement that he would tell the twins the truth. At that time, he firmly refused for the sake of the children. His refusal was the final result, and he didn't think that the other party had the ability to resist. However, now, the other party actually already had the ability to resist. The most important thing is that he now owes this person... So if the other party really wants to leave, should he force it?

If the other person really wants to leave, what right does he have to force them to leave? If he really forces them to leave, wouldn't that be ungrateful?

What's more, he no longer has the strength to force it, right?

As Qi Xiuyuan thought about this, the confusion in his eyes grew even more intense...

In the blink of an eye, another seven days passed. During these seven days, Shen Yichuan had been in seclusion. The twins stopped talking. Yu Daoming opened Shen Yichuan's door to show them. They already knew that their father was in seclusion. In addition, Yu Daoming also told them what had happened before.

However, Yu Daoming's explanation wasn't entirely clear. The twins only knew that Qi Xiuyuan and the Qi family's patriarch were recuperating in a secret location. Furthermore, the situation outside was somewhat chaotic, so they couldn't go out and play. They absolutely couldn't reveal their father's whereabouts, otherwise their father's retreat would be disturbed and he would be injured.

The word "injured" frightened the twins, so they had been very quiet these days, spending most of their time practicing in their rooms. When they had time, they would wait at Shen Yichuan's door like perverts. However, they never waited for him to come out of the room.

As time passed, the twins became more worried. They were worried about their father and their mother. They had asked where their mother was in seclusion, but Yu Daoming himself really didn't know, so he could do nothing about it.

That day, there was a faint noise coming from Shen Yichuan's room. The twins were overjoyed and ran over quickly. Sure enough, they saw Shen Yichuan coming out.

"Father!" The twins quickly hugged each other's thighs.

After this treatment, Shen Yichuan has recovered a lot. His face is not as pale as before, and he no longer vomits blood at any time.

Nangong Liuyun and the others, Shen Yichuan swore that those guys had caused him serious injuries, and he would never let this vengeance go!

"Father, we already know you were injured. Why didn't you tell us before? We were so worried."

"I didn't tell you before because I was afraid you would worry." Shen Yichuan rubbed the foreheads of the two children, "Don't worry, father is fine."

"Father, mother, grandparents are also injured, right? Where are they in seclusion? I'm so worried about them too."

"Yes, Father, can we go see Mom, Dad, Grandpa, and Grandma?"

Shen Yichuan shook his head. "No, the place where they are in seclusion is very secret. Father will take you there if there is a chance in the future, but not now. However, Father promises that in more than a month, you will be able to see your mother and father."

"It will take more than a month." The twins were a little disappointed.

"Do you really want your mother and father to come out and check your homework?" Shen Yichuan smiled.

The twins were immediately troubled, and after a moment they said, "As long as Mom and Dad are okay, then let's check the homework."

The aggrieved look in his voice made Shen Yichuan couldn't help but laugh out loud.

After communicating with the twins, Shen Yichuan went into seclusion again. In this way, two full months passed, and Shen Yichuan's injuries had recovered by 80%.

Although he has only recovered 80%, he is now able to open the Tower of Babel.

Thus, Qi Xiuyuan and the Qi family's head were released. Back then, due to the spatial ripples, they could only put people into the Tower of Babel. Now, they were finally able to get out. The Qi family's head and the Qi family's martial saint looked at the familiar outside world with mixed feelings.

The Human-Pig Martial Saint had been enduring the torture of pain every moment for the past two months, but because Qi Xiuyuan told him that as long as they got out, they would find a way to get the antidote from Lin Jiaojiao, so for the Human-Pig Martial Saint, this became a wait with hope, so although the torture was painful, he gritted his teeth and persevered.

Luo Jiulian still didn't wake up, but with Qi Xiuyuan's care and nourishment with elixirs, her condition did not deteriorate. She was just not awake. However, when a person is seriously injured, this unconscious state is actually more conducive to protecting one's own body functions.

After everyone came out, they naturally went to the Qi family.

Many foreign forces have been coming to the Imperial Capital these days. I'm afraid they're from other major families in the Xuanhuang Continent, hoping to get a piece of the action. Firstly, the Han family has been destroyed, so there must be people thinking about replacing them.

Furthermore, the news of the departure of the Nangong family, the death of the patriarch, and the current leadership change could not be concealed. Therefore, everyone was vaguely aware that a major change had occurred in the imperial capital, and naturally more people came to take advantage of the situation. Therefore, the imperial capital was in real chaos during this period.

However, the half-saint of the Li family, the half-saint of the Nangong family, and the half-saint of the Qi family are all here. They are all very powerful, so although there is chaos here, no one goes too far.

On this day, when the head of the Qi family showed up, many people realized that the Qi family might have suffered the least losses in this incident in the imperial capital.

In fact, this was indeed the case. When the two martial saints of the Qi family worked together, all those who had ulterior motives gave up their thoughts, and even the people from several large families withdrew from the imperial capital.

However, apart from the Qi family, there were no Martial Saints in the Li family and the Nangong family. There were only Half-Saints. This made many people speculate.

However, we still need to observe what the truth of the matter is.

Therefore, some families that were on good terms with the Qi family also came here, trying to find out about the situation of the Li family and the Nangong family.

The head of the Qi family knew that since such a big family was here, he would have to attend to these matters. Therefore, he did not escape after returning. What's more, they had discussed in the Tower of Babel that they would make the Qi family the largest family in the King of Fighters Continent. If possible, the Chenghei Continent and the Xuanzi Continent would one day belong to the Qi family.

Qi Xiuyuan wants the Qi family to become the master of this dimension!

Therefore, the head of the Qi family, who felt that he could still protect his children from wind and rain, was very worried about his wife who was still in a coma, but he resolutely threw himself into the busy work.

Qi Xiuyuan and Shen Yichuan met, and Qi Xiuyuan checked the twins' homework, but because he was busy with Lin Jiaojiao and the others, he was naturally perfunctory about the twins. So the twins thought that their father must have pleaded for them, so their mother and father let them go.

This made the twins very happy, and they immediately had fun after returning home.

But don't think they only know how to have fun. After knowing that their grandmother was unconscious, they decided to accompany her for a while. So now even if they have fun, it is only in their grandmother's yard.

After making arrangements with the twins, Qi Xiuyuan and Shen Yichuan entered the Tower of Babel at the same time and arrived at the first floor.

Although two months may seem like a long time, for a cultivator, it's just a blink of an eye. Therefore, during these two months, Nangong Liuyun and the others remained in the pool. With the exception of Nangong Liuyun, who made a slight progress in comprehending the laws of nature, the others had barely even made it to the threshold.

Therefore, the rest of the people were in a much more miserable state than Nangong Liuyun.

Especially Zhu Huaqiang, who had no patience. He almost drowned himself several times and now he can be considered the most embarrassed one.

Apart from him, the second most embarrassed person was probably Lin Jiaojiao.

Lin Jiaojiao was slightly injured when fighting with Luo Jiulian before. Although the injury was not serious, everyone else here was fine and almost drowned, not to mention her who was injured.

Being in this pool seemed to aggravate one's injuries, so if Lin Jiaojiao hadn't deliberately accumulated her energy over the past few days, she would have drowned! But even if she hadn't drowned, her injuries were getting worse, so her condition was only slightly better than that of the irritable Zhu Huaqiang.

Shen Yichuan and Qi Xiuyuan appeared directly in the room where Lin Jiaojiao was.

This was the first time Qi Xiuyuan had seen this pool. He had only heard Shen Yichuan mention it before, but Shen Yichuan was very familiar with it.

All the treasures here have been taken away by Shen Yichuan, so all you can see here is this pool.

Qi Xiuyuan saw the pried-open part of the wall and looked at Yichuan with a stern look, "Is that your masterpiece?"

Shen Yichuan didn't feel embarrassed at all. "I didn't know that this place could become my own at that time. Of course, I took advantage of it. Anyway, it's better to leave good things to others than to keep them for myself, right?"

Qi Xiuyuan was silent for a moment and had nothing to say about this.

"Who are you?" Lin Jiaojiao naturally saw the two people appear. She narrowed her eyes and looked at Shen Yichuan and Qi Xiuyuan. "You are the ones who brought me to this place?"

"Your soul-searching technique seems to be very powerful. I wonder if I can use it on you after you become weaker." Shen Yichuan smiled as he looked at Lin Jiaojiao in the middle of the pool.

Lin Jiaojiao raised her eyebrows and then laughed sweetly, "Sir, my soul-searching skills are definitely not as good as yours. I'm so weak, so please don't use the soul-searching skills on me..."

When she said this, Lin Jiaojiao deliberately used a charming voice, but because her cultivation was restricted in this pool, this charming voice that had caused countless cultivators to suffer losses was no different from talking to an ordinary woman to Shen Yichuan and Qi Xiuyuan, and that woman might not even be a beauty, because she was in such a miserable state.

I'm afraid that any man here would not be amazed by Lin Jiaojiao at this moment. It would be good enough if he didn't regard her as an ugly woman.

A rattan whip suddenly appeared in Shen Yichuan's hand. This rattan whip was naturally made of green shade, and then this rattan whip immediately abstracted Lin Jiaojiao in the middle of the pool.

If we were to ask who here could be attacked by Lin Jiaojiao, it would really only be Shen Yichuan.

Snap! The barbed rattan whip hit Lin Jiaojiao's cheek directly. At this moment, Lin Jiaojiao was stunned. First, she didn't expect that the whip could actually hit her. Second, she didn't expect that her charming voice was useless!
