Chapter 347: Green Lotus Cocoon (Two in One)



Maybe it’s because Day and Wind are no longer chasing him.

As Kong Ju and Huangfu Wuqin chatted with each other, it felt like they arrived at the imperial city in no time.

Along the way, neither Kong Jue nor Cong Yun took the initiative to mention a word about the old prince's body.

The two looked at each other secretly and reached a tacit understanding.

I know that I can only reveal such things when I am in an absolutely safe place, and the time is not right now.

At night, in a bathhouse in Liufeng Pavilion behind Qingyun Palace, the fifth princess's bedroom.

Creak! The door opened.

Kong Ju walked out of a misty room. He was only wearing a loose white bathrobe and his hair was still wet.

After running all the way and being chased by the day and the wind, Kong Ju was already covered in filth.

Now I finally have a chance to wash up properly. I feel refreshed and indescribably relaxed.

Sniffing the scent of spices left on the body, Kong Ju couldn't help but sigh: "This Tianqi bathhouse is more comfortable than Wudong's. The royal family of Tianqi knows how to enjoy it."

As soon as he finished speaking, the two maids who had been waiting outside the bathhouse came over with blushing faces.

One of them was holding a set of gorgeous clothes in his hand, and the other one was pretending to help Kong Ju undress.

"This is the clothes Princess Qing prepared for you. We two servants will help you change into them right away."

The older of the two maids was no more than twenty-five or twenty-six years old, and the younger one looked sixteen or seventeen years old.

When have I ever seen such a handsome young man? Even though it was just a routine task, his cheeks were still flushed.

Kong Ju was also startled by them and subconsciously grabbed his bathrobe. Seeing the two people's slightly disappointed expressions, he said, "You two can leave. I will do it myself."

Looking at the backs of the two maids leaving, Kong Ju righteously criticized the extravagance of the Tianqi royal family.

"Damn it! Is this the daily life of the royal family?"

Although he really wanted to experience what it felt like to have someone wait on him while he was bathing and changing clothes.

However, Kong Ju could not accept the long-term hard training life in Cangwu Sect at all, so he was naked in front of two strange women and asked them to serve him.

Of course, Kong Ju still felt a little regretful as he watched the two maids leave. He sighed to himself, "I'm not destined to enjoy happiness."

As he spoke, Kong Ju took off his bathrobe and put on the luxurious clothes that Princess Qing had specially sent him.

It's quite close fitting, but the color is dark. Both the top and the waistband are black. Although it is decorated with dark gold stripes, it still looks a bit old-fashioned.

Kong Ju pinched the soft fabric of the cuffs with his palms and thought strangely, "This can't be the master's clothes."

The color and style of this outfit are very similar to Huangfu Ying's favorite outfit in daily life.

But none of this matters anymore.

After changing his clothes, Kong Ju reached out and felt the wound between his chest and neck for a while. The touch of his palm and skin was smooth.

With the help of the Dragon Transformation Vitality and the Intermittent Ointment, the two wounds caused by the Day and Wind Divine Powers have healed, without even a scar left.

"Fortunately, Zhou Yufeng is not good at using poison, otherwise it would not be so easy to press my head down."

Kong Ju pressed his hand on his neck, his face full of relief.

The Gujiang witches are best at using various poison techniques.

I don’t know if Zhou Yufeng was too confident or what, but they didn’t use any poisonous means in the battle with Kong Ju.

It was also not Kong Ji’s fate to die.

After confirming that his injuries were no longer serious, Kong Ju slowly lowered his hand, looked in the opposite direction of the mansion, and murmured, "I wonder how Dapeng and Zaifu Qiaoqiao are doing."

Shortly after returning home, Princess Qing arranged for an alchemist to come and diagnose the injuries of Dapeng and Zaifu Qiaoqiao.

After all, the alchemists in the palace all have top-notch skills.

This was definitely not something that a half-way alchemist like himself could compare to, so Kong Ju had the time to come over and take a bath first.

But now that I've finished washing up, of course I have to go and take a look.

Recalling the scene of Dapeng falling from the sky due to exhaustion and coughing up blood, Kong Ju said with some worry: "I don't know if Dapeng's injury will leave hidden dangers."

Zaifu Qiaoqiao's injuries were left after the collision between Princess Qing and Zhou and Feng Shentong. Kong Ju checked on her after she fainted, and there was no big problem.

Only Dapeng's situation was very bad.

He forcibly activated the Phoenix Blood and ran all the way, and his demon blood was almost exhausted.

The physical body also suffered great damage.

Kong Qi was afraid that this injury would leave Dapeng with indelible consequences.

If it affects his future practice, Kong Ju feels that he will have committed a great sin.

Not only will he not forgive himself, but Huangfu Ying, who thinks highly of Dapeng, will probably give him a severe beating.

"Let's go check it out first."

Kong Ju pondered to himself, and wandered around in Liuyun Pavilion. With the guidance of his virtual soul vision, he soon found Dapeng and Zaifu Qiaoqiao, who were placed on two jade beds respectively in a quiet room.

The person who diagnosed the injuries of the two men was a medical officer wearing a blue official robe, with a goatee and looking to be in his fifties.

Congyun also came and was listening politely to the medical officer's explanation of the injuries of the man and the bird.

Kong Jue stepped in just in time to hear the medical officer's words.

"This woman's body isn't injured, but her spirit is a little unstable. I think she's been stimulated. I'll prescribe a spirit-reinforcing soup. She'll recover in three to five days."

"As for this bird, it's a bit troublesome. Its blood and essence are exhausted, and there are many places in its body where demonic energy is stagnant. More than ten bones have been broken by the shock."

Before the medical officer could finish speaking, Kong Ju had already walked in and bowed respectfully to the medical officer.

What the medical officer said was not much different from the conclusion Kong Ju had reached after examining Dapeng's injuries.

He immediately asked earnestly, "Sir, do you think that the injury of my spirit beast will have an irreversible impact on its cultivation?"

The medical officer had a somewhat unhappy look on his face after being interrupted, but when he saw Kong Jue's respectful attitude and claiming to be the owner of the bird, the slight emotion on his face disappeared.

After a short pause and thinking, he said solemnly: "This bird is probably not an ordinary monster. Although it has such serious injuries, I see that there is still red-gold secret power flowing in its lungs, protecting its essence."

"There's no need to worry about affecting its future practice."

"That couldn't be better." Kong Ju was obviously relieved.

The scarlet-gold secret power that the medical officer mentioned should be the residual essence of the setting sun that was placed in the Luoxia Pool and absorbed for thousands of years when Dapeng was still a bird egg.

The remaining essence of the setting sun can not only improve the qualifications and potential of cultivators and monsters, but also protect the origin of those who absorb it.

After figuring out the key points, Kong Ju smiled, glanced at Da Peng lying on the jade bed, and cursed secretly, "You are lucky."

However, Kong Ju's relaxed mood did not last long, and he became tense again because of the doctor's next words.

The medical officer seemed to have mastered some kind of pupil technique. When he looked at Dapeng, his eyes were filled with green light. He confirmed it many times before he said to Kong Jue carefully, "It's just that this bird is too magical. I have tried using elixirs and spiritual objects before to heal it."

"But there is always a force in its body that repels the medicine I applied."

"Its injuries are so severe that no external force can intervene. We can only wait for it to recover on its own."

Kong Ju frowned immediately, and his eyes subconsciously glanced at Cong Yun who had remained silent beside him.

The latter made eye contact with Kong Ju and nodded immediately, confirming the medical officer's statement, and transmitted his voice: "In my opinion, it should be the phoenix blood in Dapeng that caused the trouble. When Dapeng was asleep, the phoenix blood subconsciously deployed a defense, not to mention that the medicine was difficult to enter. The medical officer wanted to use silver needles to heal Dapeng before, but the silver needles melted into molten iron as soon as they entered its body surface."

"This is troublesome." Kong Ju rubbed his brows. Dapeng's injuries were not light. If he wanted to wait for it to recover on its own, it would take an unknown amount of time.

"Sir, when do you think my spirit beast will be able to wake up?" Complaining would not solve any problems, so Kong Ju began to ask the medical officer about the time it would take for Dapeng to recover from his injuries.

"It's hard to say. Monster beasts are different from cultivators. When cultivators are injured, they usually seek medical advice and use elixirs to help heal. Monster beasts, on the other hand, don't understand pharmacology. If they suffer too serious injuries, they tend to fall asleep."

This was obviously not the first time the medical officer had treated a monster, and he explained the Chinese medicine theory in detail:

"From my perspective, the bird's injuries could take two to three years at the shortest, or five to six years at the longest."

"Two or three years? Five or six years?" Kong Ju's brows were already twisted together.

If I really have to wait for Dapeng to wake up, Chaodi Ancient City will probably have been closed, and I would have already left Tianqi.

Without Dapeng's speed, it would be difficult for them to cross the dangerous area of ​​300,000 to 400,000 miles in the wilderness.

Kong Ju was very unwilling to give up, and asked the medical officer if he had any good ideas, or if there were any other masters of alchemy in the imperial city.

In return, the medical officer replied confidently: "I am Cai Xuan, a third-rank alchemist for twenty years. Every noble in the imperial city knows my name."

"I am helpless, and it is useless for you to ask others."

After saying that, Cai Xuan shook his sleeves, left the Ning Shen Powder for Zai Fu Qiaoqiao to take, and left with his hands behind his back.

Glancing at the direction where Cai Xuan left, Kong Ju turned his head and said to Cong Yun with a helpless look on his face: "Why is this old man so irritable?"

Cong Yun replied with a strange look on his face: "Donor Kong, don't you know Cai Xuan's name?"

"Should I know? I've only been in Tianqi for a short time." Kong Ju raised his eyebrows, vaguely realizing that the medical officer's identity was unusual.

De Zongyun just smiled bitterly and explained, "Cai Xuan is the person in the Tianqi Dynasty who is most likely to break through to become a fourth-grade alchemist. There are rumors about him in Yunmo."

"You just asked if there were any other alchemy masters. With Cai Xuan's arrogance, he would naturally give you a cold shoulder."

"The person most likely to become a fourth-grade alchemist? No wonder." Kong Ju suddenly realized. No wonder his master's wife invited this person out of the palace.

With this title, he would be a distinguished guest in any prince or princess's mansion in the imperial dynasty.

However, since even Cai Xuan was helpless, Dapeng's injuries could only be healed on its own.

However, Kong Ju had other ideas. He rubbed his chin lightly with his fingers twice, with a thoughtful look in his eyes.

Since the elixir is difficult to take, the silver needle cannot be used.

What about using methods other than alchemy? Kong Ju immediately had a plan in mind. His method was a bit unconventional, but even if it failed, it would not cause any harm to Dapeng.

Having made up his mind, Kong Ju did not hesitate. He walked to the jade bed where Dapeng was placed, picked him up, and returned to where he was staying.

Just before passing by Congyun, the monk opened his mouth slightly, as if he wanted to say something.

Kong Ju was very quick-witted. He knew what Cong Yun was going to say before he even opened his mouth. He immediately paused and whispered in secret, "Let's go to see my master's wife after midnight and report to her."

"There are many people in the princess's mansion, and maybe another member of the royal family will come to visit."

"Donor Kong is indeed very thoughtful." Congyun nodded slightly in response.

Because it was in the residence of his master's wife, Kong Ju could not fly high in the air, so he had to quickly leave the quiet room, walk through the bright lights in the princess's residence, and return to his own bedroom.

He deliberately chose such a spacious courtyard and sent away the two maids who served him.

At present, there are only five red lanterns hanging in the huge yard, and no outsiders.

Before Kong Ju stepped into the courtyard, his spiritual power surged, covering the entire courtyard and forming a barrier to prevent others from prying.

There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!

After doing all this, he took the still sleeping Dapeng out of his arms and placed him on a stone table in the courtyard.

Following Kong Ju's eyes, he looked at Dapeng. Although he had fallen into a deep sleep, he did not respond to the outside world at all.

The white feathers on its pheasant-sized body were also dull.

But the unique aura of a ferocious beast that unconsciously emanated from its body was still ferocious.

And there is a vague heat lurking beneath its white feathers, looking like it is about to erupt.

With the Phoenix blood protecting his body, even if someone at the Taiguang realm wanted to attack Dapeng, it would be difficult to succeed and he would be hurt by the Phoenix blood instead.

"Dapeng, I'm sorry for what I did to you this time. But don't worry, I'll remember this grudge."

"That old fellow named Day and Wind will die in my hands sooner or later."

Kong Ju gently stroked the white feathers of Dapeng with his palm and murmured something.

As he spoke, his eyes, as deep as an empty valley, were filled with murderous intent.

He rarely had such a strong desire to kill someone. It happened once when he killed Lu Wenji and once when he killed Ling Xi.

Day and Wind are the third ones.

Being chased to this extent, Kong Ju accepted that he was not as skilled as others.

The only thing I can’t tolerate is that Dapeng was injured like this.

The most important thing is that it was injured while carrying him away, which made Kong Ju feel like a waste.

Zhou and Feng must be killed, but how to kill them requires careful consideration. After all, they are the ones who escaped the pursuit of Tianquan Sword Sect's leader.

Even Princess Qing said it was difficult to kill him.

The most important thing at the moment is Dapeng’s injury.

After stroking Dapeng's body for a long time, Kong Ju suddenly turned his palm over.

He took out a ball of solid ice the size of a human head from the Qiankun bag.

Looking closely at the ice that was frozen, there was a ball of green flame still burning in it.

The light it emitted was not bright, not even as bright as the several spiritual oil lanterns hanging in the courtyard.

But there was a strange and creepy feeling when its green flame flickered, and my eyes would hurt if I looked at it for a long time.

The green flame was reflected in his pupils, and Kong Ju called out its name softly: "Green Flame Fire Lotus!"

What was sealed in the solid ice was the essence of heaven and earth that he had found from the volcanic vision in the wilderness: the Blue Flame Lotus.

Dapeng had been drooling over the Green Flame Fire Lotus before, but since it had just broken through to the Ascension Wheel not long ago, it was not the best time for it to absorb the Green Flame Fire Lotus.

However, right now, Dapeng has reached the peak of foundation building, and it is the best time to absorb the Blue Flame Lotus.

In addition, because it used the power of the phoenix blood, it had drained its demon blood and fell into a coma, and it was difficult to cure it with medicine.

Kong Ju simply took out the Green Flame Lotus and gave it a try.

"Since the panacea is useless, I wonder if this Blue Flame Lotus can turn the tide." Kong Ju had already made a plan.

Dapeng has the blood of the phoenix, so the Blue Flame Lotus cannot hurt it at all.

Since he couldn't hurt it, why not give it a try? Maybe after Dapeng used the Blue Flame Fire Lotus to break through to the fetal light, he would wake up by himself, and he wouldn't have to wait another three to five years.

Kong Jue did what he wanted to do without any hesitation.

As his mind moved, the seal on the Blue Flame Lotus was immediately lifted.

The ball of ice as small as a human head melted away in an instant, revealing a ball of pure essence of heaven and earth as big as a longan.

As soon as the blue flame came into contact with the air.

Boom! A scorching heat wave immediately vibrated out from the body of the Blue Flame Lotus.

The closest one, Kongqi, was hit the hardest.

The familiar flame energy rushed towards him, and Kong Ju could feel the burning heat on his face.

Fortunately, his current cultivation level is more than twice as strong as when he recaptured the Blue Flame Lotus.

He casually placed a layer of ice barrier in front of him, which easily blocked out the scorching breath.

However, the fire waves of the Blue Flame Lotus did not stop. It could not reach Kong Ju, and the blue flame energy spread to all around.

In just a moment, it can turn an area of ​​several miles into a sea of ​​fire.

How could Kong Ju, who had been prepared for this, let it get its wish?

The spiritual barrier that was set up around the courtyard in advance was also intended to guard against the Green Flame Lotus.

"Hmph!" Kong Ju snorted coldly.

Swish! The spiritual power barrier immediately shrank into a three-meter-square ice cage, completely isolating the power of the Blue Flame Fire Lotus from leaking out.

At the same time, Kong Ju, Dapeng and the Blue Flame Fire Lotus were also locked up together.

He is now a Frost Sky Immortal. A mere earth-grade essence of heaven and earth, whose fire attribute is restrained by his affinity, can still be manipulated by him.

Completed the arrangements to suppress the power of the Blue Flame Fire Lotus.

Kong Ju then covered his palm with the power of frost and snow, and slowly transferred the ball of green flame lotus to Dapeng's body.

Looking at the slowly rising flames, Kong Ju held his breath slightly.

If Dapeng shows any symptoms of discomfort, he will immediately seal the Blue Flame Lotus.

Fortunately, everything went well.

Just as Kong Ju expected.

Because of his phoenix blood, Dapeng has a natural affinity for all fire-attributed creatures in the world.

The Blue Flame Lotus has not yet touched Dapeng's body.

Another kind of fiery energy emanated from its body, which was more violent and overbearing than the Blue Flame Lotus.

Although it did not show up on Dapeng's body, Kong Ju could still feel the destructive power contained in that force, which had already gone beyond the scope of the rising wheel.

When Dapeng truly masters that power, that is when it leaps into the palm of your hand.

"Is that phoenix blood?" Kong Ju already knew it in his mind.

The next moment, Kong Ju only felt a flash before his eyes, and the Green Flame Lotus in his hand had been pulled by the power of the Phoenix Blood in Dapeng's body and merged into its body.

The blue flame lotus entered the body, and Dapeng's pure white feathers immediately burned with blue flames.

Wrap its entire body inside.

And as time goes by, the flames of the blue flame tend to become more and more vigorous.

The scorching heat hit Kong Jue's face, burning him so much that sweat broke out on his forehead as he locked himself in a cage of ice and snow.

If it was just a simple Blue Flame Fire Lotus, Kong Jue could safely isolate the temperature.

It is obvious that what is burning in Dapeng's body right now is not only the power of the Blue Flame Lotus, but also the power of the Phoenix Blood.

The two forces are merging in Dapeng's body.

The high temperature generated was so terrifying that it melted the ice and snow cage set up by Kong Ju.

If this high temperature continues to spread, I'm afraid most of the princess's mansion will be destroyed.

"If I set fire to Master's wife's mansion, my old fox Master would definitely break my legs."

When Kong Ju thought of Huangfu Ying's face, he shuddered and dared not delay any further. He immediately activated the Frost Sky Immortal Base and reinforced the ice and snow cage.

Fortunately, the boiling blue flame did not last long.

After about a cup of tea, the large amount of green energy that kept jumping on Dapeng's body surface finally began to shrink slowly.

An elliptical barrier condensed on the surface of Dapeng's body.

The barrier looked like a bird's egg, and was green all over.

There are mysterious lines on the surface of the eggshell, outlining the pattern of a blue flame lotus.

The moment the bird egg was formed, Kong Jue only felt that the heat wave in his face was extinguished in an instant.

There was only coolness in the entire cage.
