Chapter 111 Taking the Inner Pill
Shen Hengfeng got a positive answer and pretended to be surprised: "How could she be my niece?"
Yan Qu said: "I learned about this in the Immortal Lord's secret realm. At that time, I obtained the Immortal Lord's alchemy skills, and she also taught me personally."
Shen Hengfeng raised his eyebrows. Then Shen Funing's purpose of taking the inner elixir was obvious. She was forced into a desperate situation by herself and could only rely on suicidal methods to improve her cultivation and fight to the death with herself.
He felt happy in his heart. No matter what, as long as Chen Funing took the inner elixir, she would be doomed to lose.
Chen Hengfeng said to Yan Tonglu: "Go and inform them that we will return to Xianshan this afternoon."
Yan Qu was stunned for a moment and asked, "Why is it so sudden?"
Shen Hengfeng smiled and said, "Of course I can't wait to meet my niece."
Yan Qu then realized that his master must know Senior Shen, but she did not show any excitement when she saw Shen Hengfeng. Instead, her face looked bad. He suddenly felt like he was hit by a hammer in his heart, and he had a bad premonition. Could it be that he was wrong to reveal the identity of his master?
Shen Hengfeng had already stood up and left the house to go to Bao Mansion. He would definitely inform Chen Shenshan about such an interesting thing.
He thought to himself, no wonder Chen Shenshan showed such deep love for Xiao Shuang, it turned out that he was the same person as Shen Funing. It was a pity that the person he tried so hard to protect was about to die.
Chongshan was discussing matters regarding returning to the Demon Palace with his subordinates in the meeting room when he heard from the servants outside that Shen Hengfeng had something important to discuss with him.
Xiang Ze immediately stopped reporting and said, "Demon Lord, please finish talking to him first, and then we can continue."
“Nothing, just continue.” Chongshan tapped the chair with his hand, not wanting to pay attention to Shen Hengfeng.
Xiang Ze disagreed and said, "Chen Hengfeng is already in the Mahayana stage, his strength should not be underestimated. Besides, our Demon Realm has finally recovered its economy and its power is expanding. It is not wise to offend the people of the Twelve Immortal Mountains at this time."
The veins on Chongshan's head jumped, and he finally suppressed his extreme disgust and said, "Okay, you guys go out first, I'll try to finish the talk with him quickly."
These subordinates left the conference room first, leaving the hall to Chongshan and Shen Hengfeng.
Shen Hengfeng was led into the house by the servants, with his usual gentle expression on his face. Although this old man was a bad guy, he looked kind, except for the sinister look that always emanated from his eyes unintentionally.
"Senior Shen, please take a seat." Chongshan did not stand up, but just raised his hand. "What do you want to talk to me about?"
Shen Hengfeng said in a good mood: "I will leave the Demon Realm and return to the Immortal Mountain this afternoon."
Chongshan raised himself up slightly and said, "The matter of the little maid has not been investigated clearly yet. If you go back now, I'm afraid you will be troubled by rumors."
Chen Hengfeng said indifferently: "Chen Chenshan, do you think you can threaten me with just this little thing?"
"Of course I'm not threatening you. I'm just giving you some advice for the sake of your reputation." Chongshan said calmly.
Shen Hengfeng said slowly: "The reason why I am so anxious to return to the Immortal Mountain is because of an important matter. Shen Funing's inner elixir that I hid in my cave was taken away, and I want to go back and get it back."
He carefully watched the man's expression change instantly, and found it very interesting. He pretended to be worried and said, "I don't know who stole my inner elixir. Oh, by the way, why haven't I seen Miss Xiaoshuang these days?"
Chongshan was no longer in the mood to pay attention to him. Could the treasure that Fu Ning mentioned that could defeat Shen Hengfeng be her inner elixir?
All the color on his face disappeared, he understood the consequences of taking the inner elixir of the Tribulation Period, he didn't expect Fu Ning to use such an extreme method to kill Shen Hengfeng.
Chongshan couldn't sit still any longer. He didn't even know when Shen Hengfeng left. He called Xiang Ze and said, "I'm going to be away for a while. I'd like to trouble you to help me take care of my affairs during this time."
Xiang Ze saw that he looked like he had lost his soul, so he pulled him back and asked, "Is it because of Fu Ning again?"
Chongshan did not deny it, "I'm going to find her."
Xiang Ze complained: "Why can't that woman be quiet for even a moment? Where are you going to chase her this time?"
Chongshan hurried out and said, "Twelve Immortal Mountains."
Xiang Ze's eyes widened, and he hurriedly stopped him, shouting, "Are you crazy? Twelve Immortal Mountains? You are going to die, I will never agree to it!"
Chongshan looked at him, and Xiang Ze realized that his lower eyelids were slightly red. He rarely saw him looking so fragile, and it reminded him of the time when Chongshan was scolded by his father as a child and cried, and came to him with red eyes.
Xiang Ze couldn't say anything to stop him from leaving, so he sighed and said, "I'll help you change your appearance first, so it will be more convenient for you to go to the fairy mountain."
——
Fu Ning heard the sound of porcelain falling to the ground outside the door, pushed open the door, and saw Yan Hengyu squatting on the ground picking up the broken pieces of the teacup.
Fu Ning held his hand and said, "Just use a broom to sweep these away. Be careful not to scratch your hands."
Yan Hengyu picked up the fragments persistently, and within a few breaths, a large cut was made on his white jade-like finger, and a few drops of blood dripped onto the ground.
Fu Ning couldn't stand it anymore, so he grabbed his wrist and pulled him up from the ground, saying, "Why are you so disobedient? I've already told you..."
The tear marks on Yan Hengyu's face made Fu Ning stop talking. She was stunned. Yan Hengyu covered his eyes in embarrassment, not wanting her to see.
Fu Ning was a little overwhelmed by the situation, and looked at Wang Minglu for help, but Wang Minglu stood aside, spread his hands, and quickly slipped away. Fu Ning waved his fist at his back, and then turned around to see Xiaoyu crying even harder. He sighed, loosened his grip on him, and asked, "Why are you crying so sadly?"
Yan Hengyu just covered his eyes and bit his lips, not making any sound.
Fu Ning saw that a line of blood had already flowed down his palm from the wound on his hand, so he said softly, "Don't cry for now, let's go bandage the wound, okay?"
After saying that, she pulled away Yan Hengyu's hands that were covering his eyes, led him back to his yard, found gauze and medicine powder, and simply treated the cut on his hand. Fortunately, the wound was not deep, but it looked scary.
Yan Hengyu had already controlled her emotions, and apart from the slightly red corners of her eyes and nose, there was basically no sign of having cried.
After Fu Ning helped him wrap the gauze, he said, "Next time when you are in a bad mood, don't hurt yourself."
Yan Hengyu looked at her and asked, "Can you not take the inner elixir? As long as you stay in Changwu Peak, I will be able to protect you."
Fu Ning paused, and after a while he said, "Xiao Yu, this is a grudge between Shen Hengfeng and me, I don't want to involve you."
"I do." Yan Hengyu grabbed her hand in panic, "Please, don't take the inner elixir."
The pleading look in his eyes seemed extremely pitiful. Fu Ning felt a little reluctant, but after all, she would leave this world sooner or later, and she shouldn't give Yan Hengyu hope at all. This would only make him more and more dependent on her. She hardened her heart and said, "I have made up my mind. If you don't agree, I will leave Changwu Peak."
Yan Hengyu's hand holding her suddenly lost its strength and dropped down sadly. He lowered his head and was silent for a long time before saying, "You don't have to leave. Just stay here and retreat peacefully."
——
Shen Hengfeng returned to the Twelve Immortal Mountains and immediately found a painter to draw a portrait of Fu Ning, and sent people to post the portrait in every corner of the cultivation world.
Above her portrait, there were three big characters "Wanted" written on it, and below it was written that she had betrayed the Immortal Mountain and joined the Demon Realm, and now she had returned to the world of cultivation. It was also promised that anyone who caught Fu Ning would be rewarded with a huge reward.
Shen Hengfeng wanted to make Fu Ning lose his reputation in the world of cultivation and make it difficult for him to take a single step.
There were still many people in the Twelve Immortal Mountains who knew Fu Ning, and they were all a little surprised to see that she was wanted.
Shen Qingning was stopped by Song Zhizhi as soon as she came out of the Formation Technique Peak. Song Zhizhi had emerged in the Alchemy Peak in recent decades and was a strong contender for the next head of the Song family. She came over and whispered, "Fu Ning is back? What's the matter with that wanted order?"
Shen Qingning said: “That’s fake, don’t believe it.”
Song Zhizhi nodded and said, "Of course I don't believe it, but I heard from Senior Sister Yin that she is indeed with the evil god of the demon world."
Shen Qingning said: "She didn't do anything to harm the cultivation world. Didn't your Senior Sister Yin come back safe and sound?"
Song Zhizhi seemed to be convinced by her, and after a while asked, "Is Fu Ning safe now?"
After getting Shen Qingning's affirmative answer, Song Zhizhi reminded: "Senior Shen secretly sent someone to find her, so she must be careful."
Shen Qingning said goodbye to Song Zhizhi and couldn't help but worry about Fu Ning. She did not hide when she returned to Changwu Peak, so some cultivators must have seen her. It is estimated that it will not be long before Shen Hengfeng will know that Fu Ning is now in Changwu Peak. Now she can only hope that Senior Yu Yan is strong enough to protect Fu Ning.
When Fu Ning heard that she was wanted at Changwu Peak, she didn't have any special thoughts. She knew that Shen Hengfeng was always like this. He often labeled people in his enemy camp as traitors and sinners, and then claimed that it was a just crusade. He used this trick to deal with Chongshan's family and his own father in the past.
Before Shen Hengfeng came to visit her, she instructed Xiaoyu and Wang Minglu, took the elixirs needed for retreat and entered a cave under the cliffs of the back mountain.
The small system, which had been silent the whole time, said, "That Chen Hengfeng is a piece of shit, and 05300 is also a piece of shit, how come the two of them just happened to get together."
"It doesn't matter. We will definitely kill them." Fu Ning took out her inner elixir from the storage bag, held it in her hand and looked at it for a long time. She knew that once she swallowed this inner elixir, her life here would not exceed three months.
Although her goal had always been to leave this world, when she was about to leave, she suddenly felt reluctant to leave. She couldn't bear to leave the people in the Thirty-Eight Villages, the people she met in the Fairy Mountain, Xiaoyu and Wang Minglu... and she couldn't bear to leave Chongshan.
The system noticed her hesitation and asked, "Boss, you don't want to leave, do you?"
Fu Ning shook his head, "I'm just a little melancholy."
The reluctance in her eyes quickly disappeared, leaving only determination in her eyes. Her desire to leave this world of novels had never changed from the beginning to the end.
She put the inner elixir into her mouth, moved her throat slightly, and swallowed the inner elixir from her previous life into her stomach.
A large amount of spiritual power entered her stomach and washed into all the meridians in her body. Fu Ning felt refreshed and comfortable all over. All the pores on her body opened up, as if she was soaking in an extremely comfortable hot spring.
