At the same time, he naturally knew who the old man Han Xi was talking about.

He also deliberately exposed his alchemy skills.

Although Ge Xia and he did not have a master-disciple relationship, they were indeed master-disciple in reality. Most of his skills in alchemy came from him.

Moreover, before Gexia died, he behaved in many ways, as if he regarded Kong Ju as his successor.

With Kong Ju's thick skin, he could definitely call himself a disciple of Ge Xia.

The reason why he didn't tell Han Xi before and let Han Xi see it himself was to let Han Xi guess his identity by himself.

Because he was facing an extremely cunning demon, the conclusion he came to after his own deduction was far more convincing to him than what Kong Ju said in person.

Kong Ju's judgment was not wrong. Han Xi had obviously fallen into the trap.

All I need now is a little guidance from myself, and Han Xi will probably believe in himself.

So, Kong Ju pretended to be silent, and then he replied softly: "Senior Han Xi is talking about Mr. Ge, right?"

Han Xi narrowed his eyes, and the smile on his face became even brighter: "You still know Mr. Ge, you can't really be his illegitimate child, if he still has that ability, he would have given birth to you long ago."

Han Xi and Ge Xia are very close. Their relationship looks like master and apprentice, but more like father and son.

So there was no traditional respect between master and disciple at all, and their words were full of ridicule.

"Of course he is not a bastard."

Kong Ju lowered his eyelids, and his voice was a little sad. "Before Ge Lao died, he met me. He said that he wanted to possess my body. But he was poisoned by the Death God Powder, and he knew that he couldn't stop the toxicity from erupting even if he possessed my body. Seeing that I had some talent in the art of alchemy, he taught me the art of alchemy for a few months."

"He said that he had a disciple who was not ambitious and did not like to learn the Dao of Alchemy. He could not let his skills be lost."

"Before he died, he not only taught me everything he knew, but also told me the location of this cave, so that after I become proficient in alchemy, I can come and inherit his legacy."

Kong Ju's words were half true and half false, and slightly changed Ge Xia's original intention of taking over his body.

Ge Xia definitely wanted to take over Kong Ju's body at that time, but was later injured by the Cloud Pattern Stele and suppressed by the Soul-Calming Bell.

It’s a bargain for Kong Jue.

Moreover, Kong Ju did not mention the master-disciple relationship at all in his speech.

But every sentence he said expressed that he was Ge Xia's apprentice.

It’s just a matter of writing on his face: “I am your junior fellow apprentice.”

Han Xi had a playful look on his face before, but after hearing the news of Ge Xia's death, the smile slowly faded.

Until I heard the words 'There is an unpromising disciple who doesn't like to learn the Dao of Alchemy'.

He sneered, "Learning alchemy is useless. He studied alchemy for his whole life, but he still died of poisoning!"

Han Xi's words were harsh, and his emotions were still a little fluctuating.

Obviously, Ge Xia's death still caused some waves in the heart of this devil.

After cursing, the cunning Han Xi did not completely believe Kong Ju's words. He looked straight at him and said in a low voice: "Where is the Golden Palace Furnace?"

Kong Ju slapped the Qiankun Bag, and the Golden Palace Furnace appeared beside the Green Tripod.

When he saw the Golden Throne, the suspicion in Han Xi's eyes slowly disappeared.

Although the Golden Palace Furnace is not as good as the Green Cauldron, it was given to Ge Xia by Han Xi's grandfather and has important significance to Ge Xia.

It was meant to be passed on to him.

But Han Xi loves kendo more and is naturally averse to alchemy.

Since Kong Ju was able to take out the Golden Palace Furnace, it proved that Ge Xia had indeed accepted him as his disciple.

"Where is that old guy buried?" Han Xi asked softly, and his tone was slightly softer when he spoke to Kong Ju.

"Tianqi, a small village, is where I saw Ge Lao off for the last time." Kong Ju slowly told the story of Ge Lao's burial place.

There was no need to lie in those places, so he told the truth.

Han Xi nodded silently. Kong Ju had undoubtedly fulfilled his duty as a disciple and sent Ge Xia on his final journey.

Then he asked, "Any news about my daughter? Her soul lamp is still on, so she must still be alive."

"Senior Han Xi, you are talking about Han Dong'er, right?" Kong Ju looked cautious and described Han Dong'er's situation in a calm voice.

"In order to overthrow the Dingyue Sect, Han Dong'er made a bloody contract in front of many sects, and his body has been destroyed."

"But her soul was saved by Master Ge with his magical powers. Before he died, he sent her into the womb of a pregnant woman, and she was reborn."

During this process, Kong Ju did not mention a word about where Han Dong'er was reborn.

It can also be considered as a protection for your own life.

He was afraid that his identity as Han Xi's junior brother would not be able to protect himself, and there was also the secret of Han Dong'er.

There is no way Han Xi would abandon his own daughter.

This is indeed the case. When Kong Ju mentioned Han Dong'er, he secretly glanced at Han Xi and could see a hint of tenderness in the eyes of this devil.

Hearing that his daughter was fine, Han Xi's mood brightened up a bit, and he said to Kong Ju: "Take me there when the time comes."

Kong Ju naturally did not dare to refuse and nodded repeatedly.

Then Han Xi looked Kong Ju up and down again, and said sternly: "Since that old guy has taught you for several months, and you learned all these skills from him, you shouldn't call him Master Ge."

"Once a teacher, always a father. You have to call him Master."

"If you dare to call me Mr. Ge again next time, I won't forgive you."

When Han Xi said this, there was an unmistakable warning in his words.

If Kong Ju said something wrong, he felt that Han Xi would really take action and teach his "junior brother" a lesson.

Kong Ju admitted his mistake very decisively and nodded quickly, "Yes, Senior Brother Han Xi!"

Kong Ju, who had just been calling Han Xi "senior", immediately changed his expression and called him "senior brother Han Xi".

The latter was also very pleased, but there was still resentment in his words: "Old fellow, you chose to accept a disciple from the Cangwu Sect as your apprentice, and you only cause me trouble."

However, Han Xi changed his mind and realized that the situation was urgent and Ge Xia had no choice, so he felt relieved.

Then he looked at Kong Ju and said, "Take charge of the life as soon as possible. I will teach you the Taixu Youshen step by step. Even if you are a pig, I will teach you."

Kong Ju's eyes lit up and he couldn't help feeling proud.

I spent so much time talking just to gain Han Xi's trust.

From his words, it was obvious that he regarded himself as his junior fellow apprentice.

With this identity, I don't have to worry about Han Xi coming to settle the score with me after he fulfills his promise.

When I am in Gujiang, Han Xi will definitely do his best to help me.

After all, I am his 'junior brother'.

There is also the teaching of Taixu Youshen.

"With the identity of 'junior brother', are you still afraid that my senior brother won't teach me everything he knows?"

In short, after gaining Han Xi's trust, the benefits are too numerous to count.

Just as Kong Ju was secretly delighted with his quick thinking.

Han Xi gave another order.

"Take the Yang Shen tree with you. It may take a long time for the Soul-Restoring Pill to absorb its effects. During this time, be careful and don't let me collect your body!"

As he said this, Han Xi was about to return to the Yangshen Tree to absorb the medicinal effects of the Soul-Restoring Pill.

Kong Ju suddenly thought of something, slapped his storage bag, and took out the ice coffin that sealed Han Dong'er's body from the Qiankun bag.

He said in a deep voice: "Junior brother was worried that Dong'er's body would be stolen after being buried in Huode Sect, so I dug her out specially. Senior brother, what do you think of the place?"

In a word, Kong Ju mentioned two junior fellow apprentices and one senior fellow apprentice, as if he had confirmed Han Xi.

Han Xi's body, which was about to move, stopped when he saw Han Dong'er's frozen body.

He walked to the ice coffin, rubbed it gently with his palm, with endless tenderness in his eyes.

Han Xi was obviously touched by Kong Jue's behavior.

Xianyu Yanhe's puppet-refining eyes returned to their dull and sluggish look, and in his hand he was holding the soul-nourishing wood that contained Han Xi's soul.

Kong Ju took a deep look at the soul-nourishing wood in Lian Kui's hand, but did not take it, nor did he plan to put it into the Qiankun bag.

He also didn't know how long it would take Han Xi to absorb the power of the Soul-Restoring Pill, maybe a few days, maybe a few months, or even a few years.

This depends on the extent of Han Xi's spiritual injuries.

Since the exact time is uncertain, it is better to let Xianyu Yanhe take the soul-nourishing wood.

"There are many secrets in my Qiankun bag, and I can't let him see it."

Kong Qi thought so.

After thinking about it, Kong Ju flipped his palm and took the remaining two soul-restoring pills that he had just refined in his hand.

He gently rubbed the smooth jade bottle with his fingers, with a smile on his face.

"Even if I keep one for myself to practice Taixu Youshen, there will still be one surplus."

There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!

"This elixir that can heal injuries to the soul is unavailable in the entire Xianyun Realm."

“This trip to Shuangding Island was very rewarding.”

It’s more than just a great harvest.

In addition to the soul-restoring pill, he also obtained the cultivation method of the immortal Taixu Youshen.

As for the green tripod, Han Xi seemed to have no interest in it and seemed to want Kong Ju to take it away.

In addition, Han Xi, a powerful demon brother, helps him in his journey to Gujiang.

Finally, there is the pill recipe and two third-grade spiritual medicines left by Ge Xia.

The gain from this trip to Kongju is no less than that from a trip to Chaodi Ancient City.

"Unfortunately, the Taixu Youshen needs to be born before it can be practiced."

"I have another profound method that I need to practice. I am not in a hurry. Anyway, I have Senior Brother Han Xi to teach me step by step. Why should I worry about not being able to learn it?"

Kong Ju murmured softly, calling Han Xi "Senior Brother" all the time, fearing that Han Xi couldn't hear him.

I sorted out the gains of this trip in my mind.

There was no need for Kong Ju to stay here any longer.

After putting away the green tripod, he looked around Gexia's cave, and then disappeared into the cave with Xianyu Yanhe to refine the puppet.

At the entrance of the cave, Ningshuang's petite body squatted at the door, and she no longer had any intention of teasing the five Huode Sect members.

From time to time, he would stick his little head out to look into the cave.

Until Kong Ju walked out of the cave slowly with the puppet.

Ning Shuang's eyes lit up, and she asked crisply, "You're out, where's that evil star?"

The evil star she was talking about was naturally Han Xi.

"Ahem!" Kong Ju was afraid that Han Xi would hear Ning Shuang's disrespectful words, so he quickly coughed lightly and signaled to Ning Shuang with his eyes.

Ningshuang is not stupid, she is just timid. She was stunned at first, then nodded her little head like a chicken pecking at rice, and dared not say another word.

Only then did Kong Ju slowly look towards the five wheels at the door.

It took him nearly a month to refine the soul-restoring pill.

The five lifting wheels were also bound here by frost for a whole month.

Seeing Kong Ju coming out, anger and fear flashed in the eyes of the five people.

What made him angry was that Kong Ju had been out for so long that he must have searched the cave of their ancestor Gexia thoroughly.

What they were wary of was that they were afraid of being killed by the combination of the boy and the girl, or even implicated the entire Shuangding Island.

After all, the seemingly harmless girl was actually a real master, and it was effortless for them to massacre the island.

But the boy looked at them for a moment, and suddenly said to the girl: "Let them go."

"Oh!" Ningshuang could probably guess that the evil star in the cave might be in cahoots with the five ascenders in front of her, so she dared not say more. After saying "oh", she grabbed into the air with her little hand.

Five rays of icy-crystal light flew out from the bodies of the five Shengluns that were lying on the ground.

Without the restraint of the Condensation Frost Law, the five lifting wheels slowly rose from the ground.

But no one dared to move, and everyone looked at Kong Ju with doubt and surprise.

"Fortunately, none of them have fatal injuries!" Kong Ju glanced at the five Shenglun monks one by one. After confirming that they were all still alive and kicking, he secretly thanked his luck that he did not have the intention to kill them.

If these five Huode Sect's Shenglun were all killed, his 'senior brother' would definitely notice it.

Even if I talk till my lips are broken, Han Xi will never believe what I say.

Thinking of this, Kong Ju smiled slightly, and without explaining anything to the five Shengluns, he nodded at Ningshuang, and the two of them soared into the sky.

In just a few breaths, he disappeared above the double-domed sky.

Before leaving, Kong Ju's gentle voice reached the ears of the five Huo De Sect ascendants: "There are still some pill recipes and elixirs in the cave, which can be used by the younger generations of Huo De Sect. Take care of yourselves."

"What do you mean? Just leave like that?"

"What that guy meant was that he left something for us?"

"What is his origin?"

The five Shenglun looked at each other.

It doesn't make sense to rob someone's cave and then leave things for them.

The person leading the five Shengluns was none other than Yuan Zequan, the head of the Weapon Refining Pavilion of the Huode Sect.

He was also confused.

But these are no longer important.

What matters is that they are all alive.

Thinking of this, Yuan Zequan looked towards the entrance of the cave.

When Kong Ju left, he closed the formation barrier, allowing the old members of Huode Sect to enter and take the things inside.

…

Kong Ju had been refining the elixir for nearly a month. After wasting such a long time, the first thing he did after coming out of seclusion was naturally to go to Qianshui Market.

He still remembered how he replaced the essence of heaven and earth.

Counting the time, it was also the one-month deadline that the Shipyard Chamber of Commerce had promised itself.

"I don't know if there is any news about the ice essence of heaven and earth!" Kong Ju and Ning Shuang flew together towards the Qianshui market, with an impatient look on their faces.

If he could really exchange for a portion of the icy essence of heaven and earth, he would immediately go into seclusion, and with the help of the essence of heaven and earth and the calming pill, he would directly reach the peak of soul transformation.

He has already comprehended the supernatural power and can be called a half-step master.

By that time, he would only be half a step away from being defeated.

At this time, Ning Shuang suddenly sent a message to Kong Ju, her voice was a little timid: "Little Kong, the evil star is not in the token you are holding in your puppet-refining hand, right?"

As she spoke, Ningshuang turned around to take a look at Xianyu Yanhe who was refining a puppet following behind the two of them. He was holding a token made of the Yangshen wood in his hand.

This scene made Ning Shuang's eyes filled with fear that could not be concealed. Han Xi deliberately made some adjustments before absorbing the elixir, hiding the appearance of the Yangshen Tree and even blocking its fragrance.

It looks like an ordinary token.

"He's here." This was also what Kong Ju wanted to remind Ning Shuang.

He immediately sent a voice message: "Don't worry, he won't hurt us, just be careful with your words in daily life."

Ning Shuang's eyes moved rapidly. She vaguely understood something. With sparkling eyes, she asked, "How did you do it? How did you trick this evil star into going with us?"

"Ahem!" Kong Ju almost choked on his breath. He glared at Ning Shuang unhappily and responded passionately, "That was with sincerity. He was moved by my sincerity."

"Haha!" Ning Shuang laughed and rolled her eyes. It would be strange if she believed Kong Ju's words. (End of this chapter)
