Chao Lan died of carelessness
After entering the village head's house, Chaolan first refused the tea offered by the village head, and then carefully checked the doors and windows. After confirming that it was safe, she immediately sent a telepathic message to You Youju.
At the same time, a servant's voice came from outside the door: "Young master, your bundle has arrived."
The footsteps that entered the courtyard at the same time sounded like three people. Chao Lan first opened the window to take a look, but unexpectedly, a burly man with a bushy beard followed behind the servant, who was about to launch a sneak attack. The servant shouted, and Chao Lan rushed out of the door at almost the same time!
"Snap!" A sharp pain came from her foot. Chao Lan looked closely and realized that one of the three footsteps had taken advantage of the servant's distress to set an animal trap at his door. He had been careless!
The pain spread instantly, biting firmly into Chao Lan's foot and embedding itself into the bone. He pushed the man away with one palm, and before he could even break the animal trap, he leaped forward and slapped the burly, bearded man away.
"How could I be so careless about something like this! All the karma I've accumulated over the years has been for nothing!"
He hurriedly helped the servant up, intending to check his injuries, but found no external wounds. Could it be internal injuries? Realizing the urgency, he first shouted, "Someone come quick!"
They then pulled off the servant's outer garment and checked his pulse, only to find him completely unharmed. Could it be that he had fainted from fright?
The door was flung open, and the village head and several villagers led the way. Chao Lan immediately called out, "Quickly, get a doctor! He seems to have fainted."
But the men ignored him and instead surrounded him. He realized he'd fallen into a trap and, not wanting to get entangled, gave a cold laugh. He put the servant down, endured the pain, and stood up: "A bunch of scoundrels, resorting to despicable means!"
Chao Lan was already covered in sweat. Her immediate priority was to leave this place of trouble, report to the authorities, and then treat her leg injury.
As she prepared to get up by channeling her inner strength, the "unconscious" servant grabbed her bloodied leg and forcefully tightened the animal trap. The servant, who was only twelve or thirteen years old, was so frightened that he closed his eyes tightly and trembled like a leaf while holding Chao Lan's body.
Just as he was hesitating, he suddenly felt dizzy and his chest tighten. He then heard a sinister laugh: "I don't care what kind of knight you are, I've smeared this animal trap with poison that can kill two cows. Let's see how you show your prowess this time."
Immediately, Chao Lan felt dizzy and disoriented as if she had been hit on the head with a blunt object, and she fell heavily to the ground.
Within the Cloud Emperor Peak, a magnolia blossom drifted gently to You Youju's feet. He touched it, and Chaolan's voice rang out:
"Master, Huaijing is all well."
Upon entering a village, I discovered that the villagers had murdered a baby girl, while the surrounding villagers acted as if it were commonplace, pointing their weapons at my disciple.
Fortunately, the village chief was upright enough to capture the criminal, and his disciples escorted him there early in the morning to prevent any unforeseen circumstances.
Having not descended the mountain for so long, I was unaware of the coldness and indifference of the world, yet the people still suffer greatly.
I don't know what unspeakable reason she had, but she actually wanted to kill her own newborn child.
Disciple is filled with grief, anger, and helplessness, and is also bound hand and foot. Please, Master, guide me on what to do.
I miss your Master.
You Youju listened with a frown, it seemed that the child hadn't set off from the nearest location in the first place.
Only after saying the last words, "Master, I miss you," did he finally smile and send a telepathic message back to warn him to be wary of his surroundings, not to trust others easily, and to leave the village temporarily.
Just then, a burning sensation came from You Youju's wrist; it was Cen Chaolan's natal stone.
On the day of the apprenticeship ceremony, Chaolan's natal stone will be stored within You Youju's meridians. It will remain there until he turns eighteen, when the natal stone, now fully nourished and clear, will be returned to his body. If the natal stone burns, it indicates that its owner is in danger, sending a signal to You Youju.
You Youju drew his sword and charged down the mountain, but the barrier that had trapped him in Chaoyun Mountain knocked him back.
He didn't care about anything else. He crossed his wrists, intending to deliver a powerful blow to meet force with force. If he had to be locked up for another ten years or so, so be it. He would consider the karma he had accumulated over the years as completing his mission.
A slender blue light emanated from the point where the wrists overlapped, meandering towards the barrier like a flowing sleeve, instantly dissolving it.
You Youju immediately understood that this matter concerned the male protagonist's lifeline, and that the natal stone was the key to opening the barrier.
He activated a Flash Speed Talisman and rushed to the place where Chao Lan was imprisoned.
Even at a glance, You Youju couldn't contain her anger. Chao Lan was actually locked in an iron cage! Her ankles were twisted at a horrifying angle, her shoes and socks were covered in blood, she was curled up in a ball, her face was pale, her brows were furrowed, and there wasn't a trace of color in her face!
He waved his hand and blasted the iron cage open, instantly turning the animal trap into dust.
You Youju just wants to kill everyone in this damn village!
He gently embraced the still trembling Chaolan, as if holding a wounded little animal.
Chao Lan, still unconscious, whimpered in his arms, her hair soaked with sweat.
You Youju couldn't bear to watch, so she quickly made an antidote pill and transferred it to him. She reached out and used her spiritual power to draw out the remaining poison from his wound. She loosened his shoes and socks and carefully transferred a small amount of spiritual power to Chaolan to numb his pain. She used her hand to fix his foot, which was connected to the tendons and veins, and her spiritual power slowly swirled around his ankle. The severed flesh and bone fragments slowly reconnected, and he was back to normal.
Fortunately, fortunately he possessed the body of a war god; fortunately, my own skills were profound; fortunately…
As Chaolan received abundant spiritual energy, she gradually awoke, and her unfocused and confused eyes gradually regained their clarity.
"Master...Master?" The color gradually returned to Chao Lan's face. She blinked her eyes again in disbelief, her voice rough.
Master, it is Master.
The anxious, red-rimmed person in front of me was actually my master?
Master, he's here to help him.
Chao Lan couldn't hold back any longer and suddenly hugged You Youju's neck, burying her face in his neck and crying loudly.
"Waaaaah! Master! Master! Master..."
Whether he couldn't say anything or his mind went blank for a moment, he kept crying and repeating the words "Master" over and over again.
You Youju felt a pang of sadness, then breathed a sigh of relief and carefully pulled Chao Lan into her arms: "Don't cry, Master is here, Chao Lan, don't cry."
Just then, a groan came from the nearby haystack; it was the servant boy. The village head had just sent him to guard Chaolan, fearing something might happen.
But You Youju was so enraged that he didn't see anyone, and the exploding iron cage hit him. It seemed to have hit him quite hard, as he couldn't get up and was like a caterpillar.
You Youju picked up Chaolan with one hand, his face already contorted with rage. Without saying a word, he launched an attack, showing no regard for the size of his opponent.
Fortunately, Chao Lan pushed him away, preventing the wind blade from tearing the servant to pieces. You Youju glanced at Chao Lan, who explained, "He is innocent."
You Youju sneered with a look of disappointment, "Stupid."
Chao Lan dared not look at You Youju, so she simply buried her head in her master's neck and inhaled the comforting jasmine scent.
You Youju tightened his grip on him, hearing footsteps nearby, and a group of people. He patted Chao Lan's head and coaxed, "Go to sleep, your teacher knows how to handle this."
In Chao Lan's worldview, You Youju is always fair and compassionate; otherwise, she wouldn't have been able to teach Cen Chao Lan, a stubborn and inflexible person who follows the righteous path.
After being put to sleep by You Youju, he fell into a deep sleep.
But don't forget, You Youju has never admitted to being a righteous and orthodox immortal master, or a kind-hearted person who doesn't go to extremes.
When Chaolan woke up, it was already broad daylight, and Ju was still there.
"Master?" he called softly.
When You Youju saw that he had woken up, she took off the outer robe that was being scented and brought in water.
"Does it still hurt?"
Chao Lan was no longer in pain, but thinking back to yesterday, her ankle still felt a pang of pain. After moistening her mouth, she leaned weakly against You Youju's shoulder.
Yu Youju was still somewhat enraged: "Why did you hide your strength?"
Chao Lan raised her eyes, wanting to secretly observe You Youju's expression, but was suppressed by a look. Chao Lan coughed a few times and said evasively, "Huai Jing wants to experience the training as 'naturally' as possible."
You Youju chuckled, and when Chao Lan saw him slightly raise his cheek, she knew she was about to be scolded.
"Then what's the point of you even coming to Cloud Emperor Peak to cultivate? If you're so powerful, why do you need your master to save you? Why don't you just start your own sect? Why don't you graduate on your own?"
You Youju was smiling, but as You Youju's face grew colder and colder, Chaolan knew that she had made a big mistake this time. You Youju was really angry!
Chao Lan immediately jumped off the bed and knelt straight in front of You Youju. Upon seeing this, You Youju closed her eyes, couldn't catch her breath, and her temples throbbed.
"Master! Your disciple was wrong! Master, please don't be angry. Huaijing's mistake is a small matter! It's a big deal if Master gets sick from anger!"
You Youju was so angry she laughed! What do you mean by "a small mistake"? You almost lost your life, bro!
He was so angry that he tapped his finger twice in front of Chao Lan: "You've got guts! If you want to kneel, then kneel for a quarter of an hour before you get up!"
Seeing that he was about to leave, Chao Lan, the rogue, knelt down and tried to follow, but You Youju didn't even turn his head. He cast a spell to freeze him: "And another thing! Use your spiritual power where it's needed. If you send back eight hundred flying sounds a day, you'll kneel before your master for eight hundred hours."
As if enraged, she left Chaolan standing there, shouting in vain, "Master, I know I was wrong! This disciple accepts the punishment, but please, Master, don't ignore my telepathic message! Eight hundred won't do, can't I do five hundred?! Master! Waaaaah! @#/"
They chattered away, and even their speech was censored.
Yundi Peak
You Youju looked at the magnolia flowers surrounding her with a dark expression.
"Master, I've finished kneeling."
"Master, there is still the lingering fragrance of incense in the room. I miss you, Master."
"Master, I just ate pear blossom pastries. I'll make some for you when I get home."
"Master, I'm going to the next location."
"Master, I have finished reading the case you wrote. Do I need to write a comment? May I speak?"
"Master, I know I was wrong."
"Master, will you come down the mountain to see me again?"
"Master, have I been talking too much...?"
"Master, can you see this? Did it not go through?"
"Master, please pay attention to me."
"Master, please don't ignore me."
"The sound transmission flower seems to have stopped working..."
