The nails, made of bronze with flowing runes, pinned her tail firmly to the ground, their mottled surfaces stained with blood.
"Zhang Guangling, I know you want to use this little girl to obtain my Heavenly Fox Heart Pill."
“But she is really suited to cultivate my Heavenly Fox Heart Technique, and... the endgame is over, and there is already a change in fate.”
"Twenty years have passed, and I will no longer remain silent. The outcome is still uncertain, but I will wait and see how you handle the situation."
Ye Xingchen remained in meditation for three days. When he opened his eyes, the sun was rising in the east, and the entire peak was bathed in golden light.
“Young friend Ye has quite a connection with the Dao.” Zhang Guangling chuckled and said, “If you have the opportunity in the future, please be sure to come to the Xuan Yi Sect. I will enter into meditation with you to discuss the Dao.”
"Okay, but now, I should go." Ye Xingchen nodded. He had already wasted a lot of time here and couldn't delay any longer. After all, the situation in Yanjing was complicated, and he didn't know what had happened in the past few days since he left.
"I'll have someone escort you down the mountain right away." Zhang Guangling nodded.
"Where is Li Yijin?" Ye Xingchen asked.
"She's doing well up in the mountains, don't worry."
"I want to see her; I have a few words to say to her," Ye Xingchen said.
When the girl saw Li Yijin, she knew he was leaving, so she hugged him tightly and tears streamed down her face.
"Is it fun here?" Ye Xingchen asked with a smile. "It's a beautiful place, a paradise on earth. So many people dream of coming here but never have the chance."
“But I won’t see you for a long time.” Li Yijin looked directly at Ye Xingchen.
"Soon, very soon." Ye Xingchen put his arm around her shoulder. "I promise you, I'll bring you back soon."
"Okay, don't go back on your word." Li Yijin said, tears streaming down her face.
"No problem, smile." Ye Xingchen smiled slightly.
Li Yijin smiled and buried her face in Ye Xingchen's arms.
"Why do I feel... you're different from a few days ago?" Ye Xingchen put his arm around her, staring into her eyes, his brows furrowing slightly.
Li Yijin's eyes are still incredibly bright and lively, and her large eyes are exceptionally beautiful.
However, deep within his eyes, there seemed to be a subtle hint of purple.
This wisp of purple seemed somewhat familiar, but Ye Xingchen couldn't quite put his finger on it.
"What's wrong with my face? Is there something on it?" Li Yijin asked Ye Xingchen curiously.
"No, it's just that... you seem different from before." Ye Xingchen shook his head.
"Aren't you prettier than before?" Li Yijin chuckled.
"That's true." Ye Xingchen nodded. This girl was not very old, but her eyes were more mature than an adult's, and she was relatively naive.
But now, there's an indescribable feeling deep in her eyes, as if there's a hint of bewitching charm. At such a young age, she already gives off the impression of being a scourge to the country.
"You're so annoying." Li Yijin punched him lightly, then reluctantly let go of him: "You should go now, it's getting late, you have a lot of things to do in Yanjing."
"Okay, I'll head back now. Wait for me here." Ye Xingchen smiled slightly, hugged her, and then turned to leave.
Li Yijin waved to him and watched him leave.
"Your husband?" A figure flashed, and Qing'er appeared.
"Yes, isn't he handsome?" Li Yijin asked smugly.
"So handsome, so incredibly handsome!" Qing'er said with a giggle. "But in the Xuan Yi Sect, there are even more handsome ones."
"Hmph, no one is as handsome as my husband." Li Yijin raised her head and looked in the direction Ye Xingchen had left. She had only been gone for a short while, but she already missed him.
In Yanjing, Ye Xingchen found Chen Zhengyi.
Chen Zhengyi's face was dark. He said coldly, "We agreed on a week, but it's been almost ten days."
"The rare and precious herbs I'm looking for are hard to come by. Do you think they're like roadside weeds, something you can find anywhere?" Ye Xingchen said calmly. "Even if I ask someone to look for them, it will take time, won't it?"
"It's good that you're here. Can you connect?" Chen Zhengyi asked expectantly.
Chen Hao's manhood was already dead, after all, Li Yijin had swung the knife twice and delayed for so long that there was no way to reattach it.
If it weren't for the Nine-Root Grass that can sprout new leaves and grow new roots, Ye Xingchen wouldn't have been able to do anything.
But this thin blade of grass costs a considerable amount of money.
“Of course I can connect,” Ye Xingchen said. “Take me to see Chen Hao.”
"Come with me." Chen Zhengyi's expression relaxed, and he quickly led Ye Xingchen into the ward.
In the ward, Chen Hao stared blankly at the ceiling, looking rather dazed.
After all, having lost what brings men the most pleasure, this guy almost couldn't think straight and committed suicide.
As he pondered what fun he could possibly have left in the future, Ye Xingchen arrived.
Upon seeing Ye Xingchen, Chen Hao instinctively shrank back, screaming in terror.
It wasn't Ye Xingchen who ruined his manhood, but he had been beaten by Ye Xingchen several times and had a phobia of him. In addition, he had been depressed these days and his mind was not clear, so when he saw Ye Xingchen, he instinctively screamed.
"Don't be afraid, Hao Hao. He's here to help you. He won't hurt you." Chen Zhengyi quickly stepped forward to comfort Chen Hao.
"Dad... tell him to stay away from me, tell him to leave. I'm scared, I'm terrified." Chen Hao's voice was trembling with tears. He was afraid of Ye Xingchen, truly terrified to the core.
"What's there to be afraid of? I'm not going to eat you." Ye Xingchen glanced at him and then said, "If you don't want to be a eunuch for the rest of your life, then do as I say."
"You, you really came to save me?" Chen Hao stared blankly at Ye Xingchen.
“Yes, Hao Hao, he’s here to help you. You know Ye Xingchen’s medical skills are quite good; he has a way to make it grow back,” Chen Zhengyi said.
"Really? Really?" A glint of light appeared in Chen Hao's eyes.
"If you keep talking nonsense, I'm leaving right now." Ye Xingchen said impatiently, "Do you know how much effort and money I spent to get this Nine-Root Grass? You have to reimburse me for that."
"As long as you can cure my son, I'll cover any cost." Chen Zhengyi's face darkened.
"Alright then, you can go now." Ye Xingchen waved his hand.
"Dad... don't go out." Chen Hao was still scared.
"I'll stay here and watch, I absolutely won't disturb you," Chen Zhengyi said in a deep voice, also afraid that Ye Xingchen might hurt Chen Hao.
"Alright, then watch it." Ye Xingchen nodded, too lazy to argue anymore. He solemnly took out the nine-stemmed grass that was as thin as a hair.
Chen Hao's words were cut off, and there was no way to pick them up again. Moreover, Li Yijin acted quickly and ruthlessly, cutting it down to just a single root.
So now we can only use the nine-root grass to make it regrow.
Ye Xingchen put Chen Hao to sleep and then got busy.
I won't go into the details, but it took Ye Xingchen a good half hour to finally finish: "All done."
