Chapter 54: Master feels sorry for A-li
Lu Lishen's thoughts were pulled back. He did not cry like a little cat, but Ye Musi was crying at this moment.
"This looks so painful." Ye Musi hurriedly found the ointment and carefully took off Lu Lishen's clothes.
It would have been fine if he hadn't taken it off, but once he did, a large area of his back was covered with whip marks.
Looking at the whip marks, his hands trembled unconsciously as he applied the ointment to Lu Lishen. He swallowed and applied the ointment while breathing heavily.
The medicine Ye Musi used was excellent and was absorbed quickly. Logically, the injury should have healed, but the injury on Lu Lishen's back had always been in a very serious condition. Even after applying the best medicine, it did not get better at all.
He used up all the medicine and applied it all on Lu Lishen's back, but there was still no change.
"This... who hit him?" He suddenly thought of the magic whip used by Yuying'er. It didn't look like a whip that a little girl would use at all. What's more, she herself said that she had obtained it with great difficulty.
How to get it?
Where does it come from?
From whom did you get it?
Lu Li opened his eyes wide and said nothing.
He didn't want Ye Musi to know that in order to return to the demon world, he had endured a hundred black dragon whips.
He returned to the Demon Realm with Yan Liang, who informed the Demon Elders of his identity and then left.
At first, the elders were very happy to know that he was a demon. But after Yan Liang left, the elders asked which prince or general's son he was. But when he said that he was the son of Prince Jing, the elders' faces changed instantly.
"You are not welcome here!" The leading elder pointed his scepter at him, "Or are you here to atone for your father's sins?"
Lu Lishen was confused. He only knew that he was the orphan of Prince Jing and his father had died long ago, but he didn't know that his father had almost harmed the entire demon world.
"What crime did my father commit?"
"You have the nerve to ask!" The leading elder was the most miserable one back then. His appearance was completely ruined and he could only look at people wearing a mask. Most of his cultivation was also wasted. He relied on years of management and planning to get to his current position. He would never forget the hardships of these years, so he hated His Highness Jing. When he learned that Lu Lishen was His Highness Jing's orphan, he wanted to kill him to appease the hatred in his heart.
"My father has been dead for many years. I don't know what he did in the past. I am innocent." Lu Li lowered his eyes, looking sincere. In fact, he just wanted to stay, stay in the demon world. As long as he stayed, he would have a chance to compete for the position of Demon Lord. "Please give me a chance."
The leading elder snorted coldly. He looked at Lu Lishen with disdain and anger in his eyes. "Opportunity? Who do you think you are? Your father is a sinner in the demon world, and so are you! Your very existence is a mistake!"
Lu Lishen clenched his fists at his sides, his nails almost digging into his palms, but his face remained calm.
"Elder, please give me a chance!"
"Opportunity? Okay, I'll give you this opportunity!" He asked someone to summon His Highness Yu. When His Highness Yu was young, he was brave and good at fighting. He killed the black dragon that had been doing evil in the demon world, pulled out the black dragon's tendons, and made a black dragon whip.
"If you can withstand the Black Dragon Whip for a hundred times, I will give you a chance!"
He is now the chief elder of the Demon Realm. Not to mention the position of Demon Lord, he can sit on it as long as he wants.
He looked at Lu Lishen with confidence. The power of the Black Dragon Whip was such that even the strongest soldier in the Demon Realm could hardly withstand more than eighty lashes. Lu Lishen was only a small demon cultivator now. Let alone a hundred lashes, even fifty lashes would be unbearable for him.
After His Highness Yu arrived, he first saluted to all the elders. He exchanged glances with the chief elder. Just when he was on his way here, he heard that the chief elder wanted him to use the Black Dragon Whip to beat the orphan of Jing Yinchuan to death.
Jing Yinchuan was once his love rival. Logically, he should have killed the child in front of him immediately, but he was worried that the person in front of him was the son of his beloved, because his eyes were exactly the same.
He really wanted the position of Demon Lord and was anxious to prove himself to his beloved. He also had the ability and was not a reckless man. He could also plan and manage like Jing Yinchuan and become what she wanted.
If he wanted to take the position of Demon Lord, he had to please the Chief Elder, so...
"Are you the orphan of Jing Yinchuan?" As he spoke, he had already swung the Black Dragon Whip. The moment the whip hit the ground, there was a loud noise, and at first glance, the bricks on the ground were cracked.
Lu Lishen turned around silently.
"This personality is just like your father's!" Without hesitation, the Black Dragon Whip drew a black arc in the air, and with a sound of breaking through the air, it hit Lu Lishen's back fiercely.
The force of that whip was enough to make the strongest warrior recuperate for several months, but Lu Lishen just clenched his teeth and made no sound.
One whip, two whips, three whips... Each whip seemed to tear his soul from his body, but Lu Lishen persisted. He had only one thought in his mind: he wanted to stay, to sit on the throne of the Demon Lord.
The force of the Black Dragon Whip in His Highness Yu's hand remained undiminished, and each lash carried a sound of breaking through the air, as if it would tear Lu Lishen's body apart. His eyes revealed a complex emotion, a mixture of hatred for Jing Yinchuan and a hint of pity for the young man before him.
This was not the result in his previous life. When he returned to the Demon Realm in his previous life, the person who wielded the whip had already taken the throne of the Demon Lord, and this chief elder was said to have been killed by the Demon Lord. So after he killed His Highness Yu with his own hands in his previous life, he easily ascended the throne of the Demon Lord without any obstacles.
With each blow of the Black Dragon Whip, Lu Lishen's body trembled, but his will became stronger and stronger. He knew that every whip was a step towards the position of Demon Lord, and every scar was a mark of his growth.
Ye Musi looked at Lu Lishen, his voice trembling, "Your Highness Yu?"
He looked at the back covered with scars and felt a sharp pain in his heart.
This is his little disciple whom he raised with great difficulty, and he is the chief disciple of the master of Yinyou Valley. How could he bear such injustice?
"He's dead. I killed him." Lu Li was afraid that Ye Musi would go after that man to settle the score, so he slaughtered all of them so that no one could hurt his master.
"Okay, that's fine, he should be killed!" Ye Musi was indignant and wanted to let that man die again. He wanted to kill him with his own hands, "Does it hurt?"
"It doesn't hurt." Lu Lishen said coldly, as if the shocking scars on his back really didn't hurt.
Ye Musi looked at Lu Lishen's calm, almost indifferent expression, and a complex emotion welled up in his heart. He knew that Lu Lishen was enduring great pain, but what distressed him even more was Lu Lishen's attitude that seemed to be shutting himself off.
"This wound cannot be healed, Ali..."
These wounds caused by the black dragon whip are different from ordinary flesh wounds. They contain demonic energy and will continuously erode and destroy the surrounding tissues, making it difficult for the wounds to heal.
Lu Lishen stopped talking again, and Ye Musi also stopped talking.
After Ye Musi helped Lu Lishen put on clothes, he went to Nanshan to see if there was any more Bi Ning grass.
The Green Condensing Grass can evolve some of the demonic energy, so when applying the medicine, the demonic energy will not erode and destroy the surrounding barriers. In addition, his blood can also suppress the demonic energy, so the wound can heal.
He boiled the green grass into a bowl of medicine, and finally used his finger as a blade to cut his wrist. Blood flowed out instantly, and a hint of sweetness filled the air.
After bandaging the wound, he returned to the room with the medicine.
He sat in front of Lu Lishen.
"Ali, take the medicine."
Lu Lishen opened his eyes and saw the blood stains on his body that Ye Musi accidentally got from cutting his wrists. "You..."
Lu Lishen looked at Ye Musi's face with a heavy heart, and really didn't know what to say.
"What are you doing? I don't need your medicine. Now I only have the relationship of a master and a disciple with you. You don't have to do this."
Upon hearing this, Ye Musi's hand that was feeding the medicine trembled, and the medicine in the spoon spilled out.
He smiled faintly, "Even so, you are still my apprentice, and we can still get along the same way as before."
Ye Musi put down the medicine in his hand, took out a brocade box from the cabinet, opened it, took out a candy, and put it into Lu Lishen's mouth.
"Eat some candy. If you eat candy, you will have to take medicine."
When he was about to hand over the spoon again, Lu Lishen spat out the candy in his mouth. His lips opened and closed, "I always forgot to tell Master that when I was a kid, I saw other people with mothers buying candy, but I didn't, so I stopped liking candy."
Ye Musi forced a smile and handed the medicine over, "A-Li, be good."
Ye Musi rarely heard Lu Lishen talk about his childhood, so he didn't know anything about it. In addition, he had been buying candies for him all these years, and Lu Lishen loved eating them, so...
He had never thought that his Ali had such an experience. His Ali didn't like to eat sweets.
"Then don't eat it. Tell me what you want to eat and I'll make it for you. But you have to drink the medicine first."
"I have no appetite right now. I don't want to eat anything, and I don't want to take medicine..."
Before he could finish his words, Ye Musi took a sip of the medicine and then put his lips to it. The bitter juice with a bloody taste spread in his mouth.
He was unable to move and could not refuse, so he could only let Ye Musi do so. His heart also told him to let his master do so.
"Master will feed you."
“…”
Ye Musi shut Lu Lishen's mouth in this way.
The door was suddenly pushed open from the outside. Ye Musi looked at the door and saw that the person who came was Zhu Jianye.
As soon as Zhu Jianye entered the room, he saw Ye Musi biting Lu Lishen's mouth. It was so blurry that it stung his eyes. He quickly covered his eyes and his face turned red.
"Could you two have a little more dignity? It's daytime now!"
Lu Lishen's eyes sharpened the moment Zhu Jianye appeared. Although he couldn't move, his aura was no less impressive. Ye Musi was slightly taken aback before letting go of Lu Lishen and turning to look at Zhu Jianye, a look of embarrassment on his face.
"Why are you here?"
"The disciple election will begin in a few days."
Ye Musi knew this of course, he had already arranged everything, and those who were selected would be able to participate in the Linghong competition.
"The Elders' Hall discussed it. Lu Lishen is still a disciple in the valley and can participate, but..."
Upon hearing this, Ye Musi frowned. The intention of the Elder Hall was very obvious. They wanted to take this opportunity to confirm whether Lu Lishen was Lingzhu.
If Lu Lishen can calm the evil spirit in his body and use his spiritual power during the few days in Yinyou Valley, Nan Feng will be able to confirm that Lu Lishen is Lingzhu.
Lingzhu is born with a spiritual body, so if it is possessed by a demon, it can naturally use spiritual power.
This news gave Ye Musi a headache. If the Elders knew that Lu Lishen was not a spirit bead, then it would be difficult to deal with...
