Chapter 19: Dreams of Love Created by the Dream Flower
Ye Musi stood up. He wanted to pull Yan Liang with him and explain the truth to all the sects, but he quickly gave up the idea. Not to mention that many people still thought that the demons were evil, based on their understanding of Shen Hua, they would not believe it.
"In recent days, there has been demonic energy coming from the southeast. I'm worried that all the monsters in the Demon Locking Tower have been teleported there." Yan Liang expressed his thoughts.
Ye Musi walked out of the room and looked towards the southeast, which was the direction of Sunset Island.
It was indeed as Yan Liang said, there was a demonic aura, but why didn’t I notice it before?
"Valley Master Ye is wondering why they didn't notice?" Yan Liang's eyes were the most captivating. "That's because the barrier surrounding Yunlie Manor can block the infiltration of demonic energy. The elders from various sects came for the wedding banquet, so they naturally went directly to Yunlie Manor and wouldn't notice anything."
Ye Musi was silent. He was careless.
Nothing else mattered right now; he was only worried about Zhu Jianye's safety. Even if Zhu Jianye was formidable, how could he possibly handle so many demons? Furthermore, there had been no news from him...
"Sunset Island..."
After Ye Musi said goodbye to Bai Chaoyan, he went to Sunset Island with Lu Lishen.
When they arrived at the edge of Sunset Island, they felt strange. The scene on the island was completely different from what they had imagined. There were no monsters rampant here as they had imagined, but instead a strange tranquility.
There was a faint strange smell in the air that made people sleepy.
Ye Musi suddenly felt something was wrong and quickly covered his mouth and nose, "Hold your breath!"
Lu Lishen reacted too slowly and fell down.
"A Li..." Ye Musi squatted down to check and found that he was just asleep, so he felt relieved.
He looked around and found that there was no one around.
He couldn't leave Lu Lishen alone, so he carried Lu Lishen and walked towards the depths of the island.
The woods here were dense and dim, and Ye Musi's every step seemed particularly heavy. He observed his surroundings vigilantly, fearing that some demon would suddenly attack. However, except for the occasional rustling of leaves in the wind, there was silence all around.
After walking for about half an incense stick, Ye Musi finally found a secluded cave. He gently put Lu Lishen down, checked the surroundings, and after confirming that there was no danger, he breathed a sigh of relief.
Ye Musi knelt beside Lu Lishen, facing him. He raised his hand and put it on Lu Lishen's face, forehead to forehead, and chanted runes.
Judging from the dream flowers blooming all over the ground that he saw along the way, this island was shrouded in the poison of a flower demon. Smelling the fragrance of the dream flowers would make people fall into a deep sleep, and in their dreams were the people and things they had always dreamed of in their lifetime.
If you don’t detoxify for a long time, you will lose yourself and live in a dream forever.
The book states that there are two ways to undo the poison. One is to find the flower demon. However, Lu Lishen is in a critical situation and has no time, so he can only choose the second method, which is to enter the poisoned person's dream.
The things in the dream are what they want but get, or what they are afraid of losing. As long as the wishes of the poisoned person are met, the knot in their heart will naturally be untied and the poison will be removed.
However, this second method has a drawback, which is that the awake person cannot stay in the poisoned person's dream for too long, otherwise he will also be poisoned and fall into a deeper nightmare.
Ye Musi's hands trembled slightly. He knew very well the danger of entering the dream, but in order to save Lu Lishen, he had no choice.
As the runes were output, he felt his consciousness gradually blurred, the time in front of him began to spin, and finally fell into darkness.
When he opened his eyes again, he found himself in the meeting hall of Hidden Valley. The elders looked haggard and worried.
"Valley Master, how should we decide this?"
"Yes, Lu Lishen is the first disciple of our sect's leader. Now he is possessed by the devil. How will the three realms view Hidden Valley?"
Hearing this, Ye Musi remembered that this was in his past life. At this time in his past life, Lu Li had deeply entered the devil. All three realms knew that a war would soon break out. They all wanted to hide in the valley to seek an explanation:
"Why did you teach a second devil?!"
"Is there no one left to take over the Hidden Valley?!"
"Why did you teach a demon?!"
These voices continued to emerge, and eventually Yinyou Valley summoned everyone to discuss the matter.
"Valley Master..." Everyone looked at Ye Musi in unison.
In his previous life, Ye Musi chose to expel Lu Lishen from Yinyou Valley. Not long after, Lu Lishen came up and wanted to take him away.
If he refused to comply, Lu Lishen would kill everyone.
"It would be better to drive him out of Hidden Valley."
"But Lu Lishen hasn't caused any harm to the Three Realms yet." Lan Feiyue said, "Unlike Hua Jin, who was never expelled from the sect."
"Fei Yue is wrong. If Lu Lishen does something to the Three Realms, it will be too late." The one who refuted was He Ju, the third-generation elder of Yinyou Valley who had been in seclusion for a long time.
He Ju has experienced the history of three generations of Yinyou Valley, and her words carry a lot of weight in the valley. No one in the valley disobeys He Ju's words, even the former valley master Mu Chi has to listen to her, and Ye Musi is no exception.
But this time Ye Musi will not listen to He Ju.
"Enough!" He slammed the table, causing the tea on it to tremble. "A-Li is my disciple. I will not expel him from Hidden Valley."
He couldn't follow in the footsteps of his previous life, even if it was just a dream, he had to go find Lu Lishen in person, he wanted to see him.
"As for how to deal with it, I have my own ideas."
Ye Musi got up and left. When he was about to go to the demon world, someone called him.
"Husband!"
Ye Musi turned around and saw that it was Cai Yi.
Cai Yi's head was covered with ornaments, and she wore all the gold, silver, and jewelry, not caring about the weight. Even her clothes were of rare brocade.
"My dear, there are rumors everywhere now, saying that Ali..." Cai Yi looked like she wanted to say something but didn't dare to. She raised her hand to grab the cash cow that she had finally managed to get hold of.
Ye Musi frowned and dodged. If it were in his previous life, he would definitely not have dodged, because a couple should be loving. Even if they have no feelings for each other and are forcibly tied together, they have to pretend to be loving and do it for others to see.
But now, when Ye Musi saw Cai Yi, it was as if he saw something disgusting, and he avoided her as much as possible.
"What?" He frowned and said.
"Husband, are you going to look for Ali?"
Although Ye Musi disliked Cai Yi, he did not refute, "Yes."
"I can't go. There are rumors out there that Ah Li and you, my husband, are homosexuals." Cai Yi looked troubled. She didn't know if the rumor was true. She didn't want to lose the support she had worked so hard to find. Ye Musi could only be her husband. "Men falling in love is nothing in the world of cultivation, but my husband, you have a wife. What's more, you and Ah Li are master and disciple. A master-disciple relationship is bound to be criticized by the world."
Ye Musi frowned, and it was obvious that Cai Yi's words had touched his heart. He began to waver in his desire to find Lu Lishen.
"My husband, have you forgotten about the old Valley Master and that person?" Cai Yi saw that Ye Musi was a little shaken and began to exaggerate. "My husband knows exactly what happened to them."
Having been married to Ye Musi for so many years, she naturally knew a lot about her ancestors.
But Ye Musi didn't expect that Cai Yi would tell him this.
"Is that the rumor going around now?"
This rumor had been around in his previous life. When Ye Musi heard about it, his face turned red and purple with anger, and he couldn't recover for a long time. Later, he learned that these rumors were all spread by Lu Lishen. Now thinking about his love for Cai Yi, Ah Li must have been jealous and did this.
