Chapter 58 Father and Son: This son is like me.
is that so?
Since I'm not suitable, it's only natural that putting me here is useless?
Being stared at like this by Chu Sheng, Gu Xuan was in a trance. She looked at her hands and could hardly remember what she was originally doubting and hesitating about.
If I shouldn't have come forward... If I were just an ordinary person who was being arranged...
"--So, do you want to hear me say this, Senior Sister?" Chu Sheng said.
"What?" Gu Xuan almost thought that her hearing was wrong.
"Let Ye Ziqing do it, let Wang Ze do it, let someone else do it... Is this what Senior Sister Gu Xuan wants to hear?"
The girl walked in front of Gu Xuan and looked at her very closely, until their breaths could smell on each other's cheeks.
"No, I'm not..." Gu Xuan stared blankly at Chu Sheng's eyes, not knowing what to say for a moment.
Junior Sister Chu Sheng... is a bit scary...
"I knew you weren't that kind of person." She smiled brightly and walked away from Gu Xuan. "Sister, you're too soft-hearted sometimes, so you tend to overthink things."
The girl with black hair and black eyes smiled slightly, but inexplicably made people feel extremely cold.
"Sister, just do what you want to do and do it to the utmost. Cultivating the Dao requires following your heart. If someone blames you for this, then ask them..."
"You sound so high-sounding, but where were you when we needed you most?"
"A-choo!"
Ye Ziqing, who was moving rapidly towards the Hehuan Sect, suddenly sneezed.
He touched his nose, feeling something was not right. "Oh no! Junior Sister Chu Sheng seems to be scolding me in the sect."
"You narcissist!" Ya Ge, who was traveling with him, was a little angry at what he said. "Why do you say that our Shengsheng is saying bad things about you?"
"It's just a visit to the Tianjiao Ranking. How did you suddenly become familiar with Xiaosheng..." Ye Ziqing couldn't help but sweat dripping from his forehead.
"By the way, do you really have no memory of being on the Tianjiao Ranking at all, Saint?"
"Of course I do. Do you think I am you?" Ya Ge glanced at him with disdain. The dark-skinned female cultivator looked at the desert getting closer and closer, and a hint of joy was revealed in her blue eyes.
"When I was on the Tianjiao Ranking, I felt very close to Little Butterfly the moment I saw her. After leaving the Tianjiao Ranking, when I saw Shengsheng again, I instantly remembered everything... Our meeting must have been destined!"
"Is the fate you mentioned reliable?" Ye Ziqing paused, feeling quite a bit unbelievable.
"Don't blame me for not reminding you. Our Xiao Sheng was born with the ruthless path. If you expect to be able to cultivate the ruthless path again..."
"Why does Shengsheng need to rebuild it?" Ya Ge looked at him with disdain, the colorful hammer in her hand was about to caress Ye Ziqing's big head.
"Any normal person would force someone to change just because they like them!"
"No one can force you to do anything you don't want to do," Chu Sheng said.
"Sister, if everything you do comes from your heart, then all your worries will be easily resolved."
"But what if the other person loves you and everything he does is for your own good?" Gu Xuan and Ye Ziqing asked at the same time.
"Then it's not liking, nor is it true love." Ya Ge said calmly, gazing at the endless desert in front of her.
“To impose your own desires on others is simply selfish.
If I love someone, I don’t need to hear any response. Love is a supreme solo that does not require any response from others.”
"I don't really understand you." Ye Ziqing ignored the strange emotions in his heart and shrugged nonchalantly.
"We in the Hehuan Sect are different from you. We have always been the typical example of those who will not do anything without profit..."
"You shouldn't have discussed this topic with me from the beginning." Ya Ge looked at Ye Ziqing's hair that had turned frosty white and responded with a half-smile.
"——After all, you are the heartless Ye Ziqing."
In the Hehuan Sect, Gu Xuan received a completely different answer from Chu Sheng.
"There are countless things one must do on the path of seeking. If one insists on going against one's true heart and living according to the wishes of others, then what's the difference between that and destroying one's own heart for the Tao?"
Chu Sheng lowered his eyes, and Gu Xuan actually saw a hint of compassion in his eyes.
"You're giving away everything you have, Senior Sister. Even if you were willing at the time, can you guarantee that you won't regret it in the future?"
"I……"
In the wide space where medicine houses stood in rows, as the branches of the trees swayed slightly, the petals of the apricot blossoms fell to the ground like rain.
"I won't regret it. Old man, after I finish my retreat and reach the Nascent Soul stage, please let me go to Xinglin to inherit the Pharmacopoeia." Gui Xuan said. "Otherwise, I'm afraid it will be too late."
Guizhi Fuling was originally immersed in the joy of Guixuan's greatly improved cultivation after returning from the Tianjiao List. Upon hearing this, she was first shocked, and then furious.
"Too late? How can there be any reason to be too late! Gui Xuan, you are confused! You are a medical cultivator, how can you compare your cultivation progress with those magic cultivators and sword cultivators?
I think you just want to go out and be ambitious. What's wrong with staying in Liangyi Valley and waiting for your breakthrough? Why go to Xinglin now? "
Xinglin is the only forbidden area in Liangyi Valley.
It contains the richest classics and the most diverse medical records. The pharmacopoeia is the culmination of all of these. Anyone who has the recognition of the pharmacopoeia can be called a medical saint and can be regarded as the most powerful medical practitioner in the world.
But the reason why Xinglin has become a forbidden area is that the honor that countless medical practitioners dream of is not so easy to obtain.
Guizhi Fuling taught Guixuan everything about Liangyi Valley, which naturally included Xinglin.
Countless medical practitioners have entered the medical field with their pursuit of medical knowledge, but over the years, there have been countless people who have entered, but only a few have emerged.
——Xinglin is a forbidden place, where fate takes its course. Those who enter will live, and those who leave will die.
This is a phrase that everyone in Liangyi Valley knows by heart, and it is also the most concise and clear expression of the forbidden area rules.
"In short, you can't go!" Guizhi Fuling tossed his sleeves and concluded the matter. "Stay in the valley!"
"But I can't wait any longer!"
Guixuan suddenly raised her head and looked at him.
"You've always said this since I was little. I'm a medical practitioner, destined to save countless lives and heal countless wounded. It's because I have the blessing of the Avenue of Vitality—"
"Am I wrong?" Guizhi Fuling's eyes widened in anger. "It's common sense that medical practitioners progress slowly. Aren't you afraid of going astray and becoming possessed by evil if you're so impatient?"
"Dad." Gui Xuan suddenly called out to Guizhi Fuling after a long time. While the master of Liangyi Valley was stunned, he asked.
"Back then, when your cultivation wasn't strong enough to refine the elixir and you couldn't save my mother, was that how you comforted yourself?!"
When you see someone important to you pass away from this world, and you miss them by a hair's breadth...
Do you really not resent your past self for not being able to make further progress and ending up in this lonely situation today?
Astonishing spiritual power erupted from Guizhi Fuling's body, and the black and white clan leader's uniform was blown away by the rising air current. The old valley master's eyes turned red, "Guixuan——!!!"
"I'm listening right here!" Gui Xuan fearlessly took another step forward despite the pressure of spiritual power.
"I just don't want to be powerless when she needs me the most. What's my fault?
Even if I were to kneel at my mother's grave right now, even if I had to kneel for five, ten, or twenty years, I would still say this to her!"
——I just wanted to save Achan, what did I do wrong!
Looking at Gui Xuan's fearless face, Guizhi Fuling seemed to see himself when he was young.
Achan, I always thought this child was more like you, and I always thought you were trying to comfort me when you said Xuan'er was like me... But now I realize that I was wrong.
...I was wrong.
"You always have your reasons."
The angry aura on Guizhi Fuling's body suddenly weakened. He no longer looked at Guixuan, nor did he speak. He just waved his hand and left.
He couldn't speak anymore. Guizhi Fuling was afraid that if he opened his mouth again, he would only think of his deceased wife's pale face.
Gui Xuan looked at Guizhi Fuling's back in some surprise. He didn't know if it was an illusion, but he felt that the figure that had been upright for so many years now looked a little hunched.
"Don't look, Young Valley Master." Xiao Huang quietly appeared and tugged at the corner of Guixuan's clothes, saying very skillfully.
"The Valley Master has not ordered you to be confined, so you can prepare to go to Xinglin after you come out of seclusion."
"...Are you sure the old man won't bother me again? I don't need to look for him anymore?" Gui Xuan was a little confused.
"I'm sure, because the Valley Master probably doesn't want to see you right now."
Gui Xuan looked at the medicine boy Xiao Huang with suspicion. Xiao Huang shook his ears calmly and showed a faint smile.
"The Valley Master has probably gone to his wife's place. Calculating the time, he should be crying now. Please give him some face."
Dad to Mom...
Guixuan closed her eyes and put everything behind her.
The young master of Liangyi Valley had no memory of being on the list of geniuses, but his intuition kept reminding him that there was something strange.
After communicating with Chu Sheng using jade beads, Gui Xuan returned to the valley and opened her mustard seed. With patience comparable to deciphering a code, she cracked the biggest secret she had left inside.
It was a vast pile of failed prescriptions that almost completely covered the cave of the Young Master of Liangyi Valley.
Fail, fail, fail, fail, fail...
It's nothing but failure, failure, everything is failure.
Why do I have so many records of failure?
What am I trying to do...who am I trying to save?
A large blank piece of paper with only ink stains in the middle fell down. Gui Xuan pinched it, and then his eyes widened in shock.
The medicine bottle in his hand clattered to the ground, but it couldn't arouse his attention.
Afterwards, the young Valley Master Gui Xuan rushed to the Valley Master's Mansion and swore to Guizhi Fuling that he would enter the medical field after reaching the Nascent Soul stage.
Xiao Huang, who stayed in Guixuan Cave to clean up the mess, picked up the medicine bottle that fell in the cave. He looked at the last piece of paper with words on it and shook his head in confusion.
I thought the young master was so excited because there might be something very important on this piece of paper, but there was only one word on it -
【she】?
