What is the one-character name (3)
Zhu Ming's method was bloodletting. Every evening at dusk, Xu Xing would come to Qingfeng Courtyard to bleed for an hour. While he was bleeding, Zhu Ming would use his Feng Shui skills to search for fragments of Xu Xing's memories of Wei Zhegu.
This went on for two days. That night, when Xu Xing came out of Zhu Ming's yard with a pale face, he happened to see Lou Yao wandering outside.
She was wearing a crabapple-colored skirt and a delicate flower hairpin in her hair. She walked towards him with a frown on her face.
"Xu Xing..." She walked to his side and called out timidly.
"What's wrong?" Xu Xing said weakly.
His face was horribly pale under the moonlight, but Lou Yao seemed not to notice. She suddenly grabbed his wrist and said in panic, "I've been having nightmares lately. I dreamed that a man in black kept chasing me. Xu Xing, I'm scared."
Xu Xing shook her hand off without leaving a trace and said softly, "Senior Sister, I'm not feeling well..."
"Xu Xing!" Lou Yao suddenly yelled, looking at him with anger in her eyes. "I'm so scared right now. Shouldn't you comfort me first? Why can't you even bother to listen to me finish my words?!"
These words and the tone were full of questioning. When Lou Yao realized this, she panicked at first, but then she remembered that she was Li Zhaoyue now, and she felt confident again.
Things have been going badly for her lately. She doesn't understand why those people still say that she has become a different person even though she has changed her identity.
She is obviously Li Zhaoyue now, and she has obviously replaced Li Zhaoyue. Why, on what basis, do those people still treat her like that?
The people at the medical school were only nice to her for two days, but then they ignored her every time she went. The same thing happened with the people at the Feng Shui Academy; they'd been following her around and calling her "Senior Sister" a few days ago, but now they've been avoiding her like crazy. Especially that Wang Kun, who actually told everyone she'd been possessed and asked if she wanted a fortune-teller.
Lou Yao's face turned pale and she nearly flipped the table. Wang Kun was well-known throughout the Yiziyuan for his accurate predictions. If he discovered anything, it would be troublesome.
What hurt her most was Xu Xing's attitude. If she hadn't gone to look for him these past few days, she wouldn't have seen him. Wasn't it said that Xu Xing loved Li Zhaoyue and was willing to give everything for her?
Why? Why did it become like this?
"Senior Sister..." Xu Xing looked frightened and took several steps back. Lou Yao forced herself to suppress her temper and gently took his arm, saying coquettishly, "I haven't been sleeping well lately, and my temper has also been a lot worse. I'm really sorry for getting angry at you just now."
Xu Xing took a deep breath, pushed her hand away, and said with a smile: "It's okay, Senior Sister, have you been using the medicine I gave you recently? You will be fine after using it."
Under the moonlight, his eyes were serious and focused. Being stared at like this, Lou Yao's anxiety suddenly lessened a lot, and the excitement she had felt before returned.
She said that Xu Xing was still as gentle and warm-hearted as he was when he rescued her from the gang of criminals. He was still the helpful, kind, and hardworking person everyone saw in him.
There must be someone who is worthy of her, Lou Yao.
"I use it every day, and I just ran out today." Lou Yao said, "You, why do you look so bad? Are you okay?"
She looked at Xu Xing with heartache and wanted to touch his face with her hand, but Xu Xing dodged her.
"Xu Xing..." Lou Yao imitated Li Zhaoyue's expression and looked at him in confusion.
He blinked, distanced himself from her, and said calmly, "It's too late. I'll go back first. Senior Sister, go to bed early."
"Xu Xing!" Lou Yao wanted to call out to him, but Xu Xing completely ignored her and quickly walked out of Qingfeng Courtyard. She was so angry that her whole body was shaking, and she stormed back to the courtyard.
The moment Xu Xing walked out of Qingfeng Courtyard, the surging blood in his throat could no longer be suppressed, and it burst out. Red blood mist left traces on the gravel road, and he slowly slid to the ground.
A black mist appeared out of nowhere, and Yue Jinhuan, dressed in red, walked over.
"You can't hold on just like this?" She stopped, folded her arms and looked down at him.
"Where is she?" After a long pause, Xu Xing picked up his voice and asked.
Of course Yue Jinhuan knew who he was asking about, but he pretended not to know and leaned against the tree without saying a word.
Xu Xing knew her intention, chuckled a few times, and started coughing again.
"She's fine, just wait for our plan to be completed. But you still need to pretend for a while, at least until Wei Zhegu's business is done." She seemed unable to bear it any longer and threw a handkerchief to him.
"Wipe it off. After all, this is probably one of the few chances you can get to see her," she taunted.
Xu Xing said thank you, picked up the handkerchief and wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth.
"I hope you can remember your promise and don't go back on it." Yue Jinhuan said this with a hint of warning and left.
On the empty road, Xu Xing stood up shakily. The pale moonlight shone on him, revealing a strong sense of deathly silence.

Jinxiantai·No Regrets Cliff
He Shuyu supported Su Zi and walked towards a small wooden house on the cliff. There lived Mu Ying, the mysterious and elusive medical immortal.
Su Zi's condition deteriorated rapidly. After just a short journey, his black hair had turned white.
"Master, if you hold on a little longer, we will find the Medical Immortal soon." He Shuyu injected several more spiritual powers into Su Wei's body, and seeing that her complexion had improved, he hurriedly said.
However, Su Zi had no desire to survive. He just followed her movements without saying a word.
"Master, my brother..." She had just opened her mouth when Su Zi suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood. Then came a strange force that pushed He Shuyu away.
A strange situation occurred. The artifact cone that had been wrapped around Su Zi's hair suddenly fell off, taking her soul with it.
"Master!" He Shuyu struggled to his feet, trying to get closer to Su Zi, but was separated by an energy shield that appeared out of nowhere. With Su Zi trapped, and Wuhui Cliff deserted, and He Kongzhi possessing the ability to travel through space, his only hope lay with the Wood Doctor Immortal.
"Wood Doctor Immortal! I'm He Shuyu. Elder Su is in trouble! Please save her!" He Shuyu gritted his teeth and shouted towards the wooden house. At the same time, Su Zi began to vomit blood, and a large ball of light gradually gathered between his eyebrows. His soul was about to shatter.
If the soul is shattered, no matter how powerful the Wood Doctor Immortal is, he will be powerless to save the situation.
Fortunately, He Shuyu's voice was loud enough, and a short, fat man in plain clothes walked out of the hut, rubbing his belly and looking over here. He Shuyu was overjoyed and shouted at the man: "Mu Yixian, here, here, please save my master!"
Mu Ying recognized the speaker as He Shuyu, the chief disciple of Jinxiantai, and the person lying on the ground, vomiting blood, was none other than Su Zi, the master of Jinxiantai. He immediately put away his weary expression and hurried over.
"The soul has left the body. This is the result of the He family's teleportation magic. Little girl, this is your family's magic." Mu Ying looked at He Shuyu meaningfully and said.
"Does the Medical Immortal have any way to save my master?" He Shuyu asked, pretending not to hear his question.
Mu Ying chuckled and touched his chin. A golden light flashed from his sleeve, and the barrier covering the word "Su" shattered. He glanced at He Shuyu and said, "Help the person in."
He Shuyu carefully helped Su Zi up and followed him to the hut. The hut looked small from the outside, but it was actually a hidden gem. Inside was a small pharmacy, stocked with all sorts of rare medicinal herbs. He Shuyu, with his sharp eyes, immediately noticed someone behind the screen. He wanted to ask, but then kept his mouth shut.
"Just say whatever you want to say. I'm an old man and I don't care about that much." Mu Ying said.
He Shuyu pondered her current situation, deciding it was best not to stir up trouble, and shook her head. The person behind the screen remained motionless, seemingly asleep. She didn't dare to look any further, so she followed Mu Ying into the inner room, placed the Su character in place, and then exited.
He Shuyu sat on the bench outside and closed his eyes.
She hadn't expected the so-called "man in black" to actually start targeting the Daoist sect's top brass, and that this incident was actually connected to the Lou family incident. More and more things were swirling around in her mind, and she felt a vague connection, but she couldn't find the most crucial piece of the puzzle.
Maybe we really need to start with the legend of the ghost clan.
He Shuyu was concentrating on thinking about something when the screen suddenly vibrated uncontrollably.
"Mu Yixian, there's something wrong with the screen. Do you want to go check it out?" He Shuyu called into the inner room. Mu Ying didn't answer, so she called out several more times, but still no response. The screen was shaking more and more violently, and in desperation, she had to get up and check what was going on.
Strange, it's clearly midsummer, why is there such a chill here? Without giving it much thought, she simply lifted the screen. What came into view was a massive ice coffin. A powerful force pushed her from behind, and she sank into it without a moment's delay.

Song Shiyu had been hiding here and there for the past few days, and now she finally found a gap. She used the silver thread in her hand, but did not feel Xie Feng's sword energy, and she finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Although I have been busy escaping these days, I have still collected some information about Mu Ying. Now I roughly know where he is in Jinxiantai and how he sneaked into Jinxiantai.
The guards at Jinxiantai were stricter than those at Yiziyuan, but there were no protective formations, so it wasn't difficult for Song Shiyu to sneak in. Having just escaped from Xie Fengjian, she changed her clothes, quietly blended into the team transporting supplies, and slowly walked towards Jinxiantai.
She didn't know if it was her illusion, but she could feel the ground shaking slightly these past few days. There were fewer people on the streets, and most of the people in the teahouse were talking about the strange legend of the fall and the elusive man in black.
It has nothing to do with her anyway. As long as she can detoxify successfully and admit her mistake to her master, she can live a carefree life again.
only……
She suddenly thought of Xie Feng.
Her time at Yiziyuan was brief, but it was filled with richness and excitement. More interesting things happened during that time than she had experienced in over a decade. Although Xie Feng kept her in check, he didn't do anything excessive, and she thrived in Yiziyuan.
Unfortunately, good things are always short-lived.
Song Shiyu sighed and continued to move in step with the person in front of him.
"Everyone entering the Golden Immortal Terrace must undergo a full body check." A familiar voice came from the front. Song Shiyu suddenly looked up and saw that at the entrance, Xie Feng had stopped the team delivering food.
"We are a small business. We rush to make the next trip after delivering one. If there is an inspection, the schedule of our next trip will be disrupted." The leader said with a bitter face.
Song Shiyu quickly bent down to cover his face, cursing Xie Feng in his heart.
Why was this guy haunting her? I'd already erased his memories. Why was he still so persistent? With so many troubles happening on the Floating Island right now, why was he still haunting her?
"Right now, an evil demon has infiltrated this food delivery team. For everyone's safety, I will cover all your losses today. Is that okay with you?"
