wanted
Yi Wu pondered for a long time, but still couldn't figure out what the Emperor's purpose was in stealing the Yin-Yang Universe Pearl. The Queen Mother and Jun Xuan seemed to know the secret, but kept silent.
The problem has almost reached a dead end and there is no breakthrough.
Jiufang Mingyuan brought some ointment and wanted to apply it to Yiwu's wound, but she retracted her hands and said, "Don't bother me, young master. I can do it myself."
Yiwu opened the lid and quickly applied ointment to the wound on the palm of her left hand.
There was a knock on the door, and Qingpu's voice came in, "Young Master, the porridge is ready."
"Come in." Jiufang Mingyuan pulled up his collar, stood up and walked inside. "Her hand is injured. Feed her."
Qingpu and Ziying pushed open the door, brought in two bowls of porridge, and placed them on the small table next to Yiwu.
The sight of the hideous wound was enough to make them both frown. Now that they were in Jiufang Mingyuan, they didn't dare to say much and quietly fed Yiwu porridge.
The porridge is made with old hen soup, shredded chicken and vegetables. It is fresh, fragrant and delicious, and the temperature is just right.
Yi Wu was sipping her porridge when she heard a voice from inside asking, "Why did you burn my clothes?"
Feeling inexplicably guilty, Yiwu started to cough.
Qingpu quickly reached out to pat her back, "Slow down, slow down, don't rush."
Fortunately, Jiufang Mingyuan didn't say anything else, and Yiwu naturally didn't answer.
After finishing the porridge, Qingpu and Ziying left with their empty bowls.
Yi Wu had delayed for too long. She had to rush back to Ji Ming. Otherwise, it would be hard to explain if she was discovered. "Nothing else, I have to go. I don't want to be discovered."
Just as she reached the door, Jiufang Mingyuan came out dressed.
"Let's not look for the Yin-Yang Universe Pearl yet. The matter of the demon clan is more urgent right now. We must find out what they are up to as soon as possible."
He straightened his clothes but didn't step forward. "The immortals, demons, and mortals alike have all gone missing, and the number is not small. If there's more than one blood demon vine, the demon tribe must have trained quite a few demon soldiers by now."
"Get well soon. I'm waiting for you to detoxify me."
Yi Wu responded in a deep voice and turned to go into the next room.
"Saint."
"Saint."
Qingpu and Ziying came forward, lowered their heads and held one of her hands, feeling a little distressed, and talked about her concern in a flurry.
"Where have you been these days? How did you get injured so badly?"
"Where's Yuehua? Hurry up and get Yuehua here."
"The wound on the wrist is so deep, I'm afraid it has damaged the tendons and veins. What should I do now?"
"The Saint usually likes to wear red clothes, but today's light blue clothes look more like the attire of immortals."
…
Yi Wu glanced down, pulled the two of them to sit down, and took out a small golden cicada. "The demon tribe has been causing trouble recently, and I have to go down to investigate. If you don't have something important to do, do not leave Cloud Summit."
"This is the Nine-tone Cicada. Keep it safe. If there's anything unusual on Cloud Peak, remember to notify me."
Qingpu took the Nine-tone Cicada and suddenly became serious. "As you command."
Time was in a hurry, so Ziying found a bottle of Yuehua and handed it to her. "The Saint has official business to attend to, and the servants cannot serve you. Take this medicine and take good care of yourself."
"That's right, Saint, take good care of yourself outside. We will help you protect the Young Master and never let any woman get close to him." Qingpu patted his chest and promised solemnly.
Yi Wu wanted to explain, but found she couldn't. "Never mind. Anyway, please be careful. The demon tribe may not be safe right now. There might be traitors colluding with the demon tribe. Young Master is aware of this. If you find anything unusual, please report it to Fu Ke at any time."
After giving the instructions, Yiwu put the medicine in her pocket and left in a hurry.
After tossing and turning for most of the night, it was already bright in the dark sky.
Yiwu had just returned to her room when Jian Qinyuan pushed the door open.
Seeing Yi Wu, he breathed a sigh of relief and asked in a low voice, "My little ancestor, where have you been? With your tricks, who can you fool?"
Yi Wu looked behind him and saw no one else. "Why are you so nervous?"
"Just now, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince sent a message saying that the Medical Master had refined a life-extending elixir according to the previous formula, but he didn't know if it was successful or not. He wanted you to try it first."
Jian Qinyuan looked back outside and spoke quickly, "Liu Yu has already gone with someone to get the life-extending pill and asked me to come and call you. But when I walked in, I found that you were not there. Tell me, am I nervous?"
"You've been acting so sneaky lately. Tell me the truth. What's your purpose in sneaking into the Underworld, risking your life? Have you been with the demon clan for too long and betrayed them? No, you were the one who broke the seal with all your might... So what are you doing?"
When Jian Qinyuan accidentally saw the new wound on her palm, he was furious.
Yi Wu wanted to pat his shoulder, but her hand was injured. "Thank you for your hard work. I'm almost well now. I took the life-extending pill. Let's choose a day to leave Ji Ming."
She was seriously injured and on the verge of death when she came here. It is impossible for her to recover for no reason. She had taken detoxification pills before, and now she is taking life-extending pills, so it is reasonable that her health has improved.
Right now, the immortals have not found the Qingguang Ji yet, and Jiufang Mingyuan cannot control the God-killing Whip, so they must hurry.
Yiwu lay back on the bed. Not long after, Liuyu came back with an exquisite little medicine box containing a pill.
He handed the life-extending pill to Yi Wu, "The Doctor said we were missing two herbs, so we substituted something with similar effects. I don't know if it will work, so I'll let you try it first."
"Thank you for your trouble, doctor." Yi Wu reached out to take it and put it into her mouth with tea.
Compared to the real life-extending pill, the smell of this pill is much weaker, and so is the taste, but Yiwu doesn't care.
Jian Qinyuan looked at her nervously, "How do you feel?"
Yiwu concentrated and felt it, but she really didn't feel much.
After a while, a warm current began to flow through her body and the wound felt a little itchy. She quickly sat cross-legged and practiced her internal energy to heal the wound.
Seeing this, Liu Yu and Jian Qinyuan waited quietly by the side without disturbing them.
The last time Yiwu took the life-extending pill, she was in a coma and had no idea of its magical effects. Although the life-extending pill today was much inferior, it actually had the miraculous effect of repairing injuries.
Yi Wu's heart meridians were no longer in danger. She guided the warm current to gather in the tendons of her right wrist, feeling the cracked tendons growing and closing at an extremely slow speed. She unconsciously clenched her fist to test it, and her strength had already recovered by most.
At the same time, the wound on the palm of her left hand also healed quietly, and soon only a thin scab remained.
After absorbing the effects of the medicine, Yiwu's face became much rosier. When she opened her eyes, she found that Jian Qinyuan and Liuyu had been standing beside her with concerned eyes.
Yi Wu got off the bed and bowed, "Thank you, Brother Liu Yu. I don't know if I succeeded in refining the life-extending pill, but I do feel much better."
"You're welcome. It was only with the help of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince that the Medical Master was able to refine this life-extending elixir. I'm just getting it on his behalf."
Liu Yu's gaze flickered across her lips. "Your lips were pale just now, but they've gotten much better since you took the Life-Extending Pill. I think whether or not it was successfully refined, it must be useful."
His lips were pale... that was because a lot of blood was consumed in detoxifying Jiufang Mingyuan.
The memory of last night flashed through Yi Wu's mind, and she felt guilty unconsciously, like a man who went to a brothel to have secret affairs with other women, and then came back to be caught by his original wife.
She couldn't think of a suitable description for the moment, but it seemed to be something similar.
Yi Wu cleared her throat and turned her gaze toward the door. "If I have the chance in the future, I will definitely personally thank His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and the Medical Master for saving my life."
As luck would have it, just as she finished speaking, a bright yellow figure came from afar and strode into the house.
Liu Yu and Jian Qinyuan immediately turned around and saluted, "Greetings, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."
Yi Wu followed suit, bowing to Jun Xuan and saying, "Greetings, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."
"No need to be polite." Jun Xuan glanced at Yi Wu and waved at her, "Come here, I'll take your pulse."
He lifted up his clothes and sat down at the table. Yi Wu hesitated for a moment, but finally sat down and stretched out her hand.
Yi Wu felt a little nervous, not knowing how good Jun Xuan's medical skills were and what he could do.
Jun Xuan's warm fingertips rested on his pulse, his expression serious. Qin Yuan and Liu Yu gathered around him, glancing at Yi Wu and then Jun Xuan, waiting for him to speak.
The demon pill disappeared, the evil spirit faded a lot, and even the poison in the body was completely eliminated. This was definitely not something that the Xuanling Pill and the Life-Sustaining Pill could do... Who on earth was this Qin Mo?
As they held each other, Jun Xuan's eyes when looking at Yi Wu became a little complicated, which made her feel very uncomfortable and cold sweat broke out on her back.
Finally, Jun Xuan withdrew his hand. "The life-extending pill is indeed miraculous. Your body has obviously recovered a lot, but the damage is great. You still need to rest for a while."
As for the rest, he said nothing.
The main reason why I came to see Qin Mo was to see whether the life-extending elixir was as magical as the rumors said. If it was really refined, it could be used by the immortals in the future.
Unexpectedly, Qin Mo's physique was too special, making it difficult to judge.
Yi Wu quietly exhaled and bowed, "Thank you very much, Your Highness. I cannot repay your kindness enough. If you need me in the future, Your Highness, please let me know."
Jun Xuan came back to his senses and nodded, "There is indeed something I need your help with."
"Where did you go when you were captured by the fox demon? Have you ever seen her mastermind, or any other blood demon vines?"
Yi Wu was unable to answer the series of questions truthfully, so she asked, "Why do you say that, Your Highness?"
Jun Xuan gave Liu Yu a look, and he explained, "A few days ago, the emperors of various countries in the human world sent people to Ji Ming for help. They claimed that many people had disappeared for no apparent reason, and a huge number of them had disappeared without a trace. They suspected that it was the work of demons or monsters, and requested the immortals to help."
"The Heavenly Monarch has handed this matter over to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. We suspect there was more than one blood demon vine. Since the fox demon is in charge, she must know the hidden truth. It would be best if we could find the mastermind behind this and locate the remaining blood demon vines. Perhaps we can rescue the victims."
"Not only that," Jian Qinyuan added, "most of the cultivators sent out by the major immortal cultivation sects to search for the Qingguang Ji have also disappeared. In the worst case scenario, they may have been killed by the demons."
Jun Xuan was just about to ask Yi Wu again when two people hurried in from outside the door.
"Your Highness the Crown Prince."
Ling Hua and Chang Yao exchanged greetings and quickly explained their purpose.
"Something bad has happened. We are wanted."
