On the road.
The Three Immortal Maidens were still communicating with each other using their divine senses.
The three of them knew that leaving Taoism was very dangerous, but they had things to do and had to come out.
In communication.
Yunxiao inquired about Bixiao's injuries: "Third Sister, can your body still hold up?"
Bixiao nodded, but her expression wasn't very good: "Don't worry, elder sister, my body can still hold up."
Yunxiao hummed in agreement.
Centuries have passed.
Bixiao's injuries had only improved somewhat.
They encountered a great battle in the celestial realm, where the three sisters fought against Di Xin and Meng Po, but were severely injured by the God-Slaying Whip.
The third sister, Bixiao, was almost beaten to death with a single whip.
If it weren't for using Mu Mu, a substitute for Bi Xiao, to keep her alive and then secretly sending her back to the Taoist sect, which allowed her to recover somewhat, Bi Xiao's life would have been in real danger.
even so.
Having lived in seclusion in Taoism for hundreds of years, Bixiao's injuries have only healed somewhat. At this rate, it will take at least tens of thousands of years to fully recover.
All I can say is...
Meng Po and Di Xin were far more powerful than they had imagined.
Until now.
They couldn't understand it.
Why did the power of a human emperor besieged by Taoism and a tomb guardian watching over the underworld become so exaggerated?
But that's just how it is.
After his resurrection, Di Xin's strength increased by leaps and bounds, and he was moving towards his peak.
In contrast, the relatively low-key Meng Po also demonstrated terrifying power.
Yunxiao sighed.
They seem outdated.
They are somewhat out of touch with the so-called geniuses of this era.
But upon closer reflection...
Emperor Xin and Meng Po do not seem to be geniuses of this era.
only.
Compared to Emperor Xin and the Human Emperor, the Three Immortal Maidens appeared to be a bit older.
Yunxiao suddenly realized something: "So many years have passed, and Lu Henge still hasn't come to the Ancient Realm?"
Yunxiao frowned slightly.
She always felt that Lu Hengge was a potential threat.
even.
Lu Henge is a huge hidden danger.
Logically speaking...
Given Lu Henge's growth rate, he should have arrived in the Ancient Realm a hundred years ago. Even if he didn't know the way to the Ancient Realm, he should have arrived long ago, even if he took a detour for decades.
But that's just how it is.
To this day, they have not heard any news about Lu Hengge.
This is strange.
Either Lu Henge is in seclusion for hundreds or thousands of years, or he is hiding in the shadows, plotting something.
The former is alright.
There are successes and failures in seclusion. The end of seclusion does not guarantee a surge in strength; in fact, it may even lead to a decline.
But the latter is very dangerous.
One more thing.
There has been no further news of Emperor Xin and Meng Po.
Emperor Xin and Meng Po should have arrived in the ancient realm long ago, but there has been no news of them for the past hundred years.
Yunxiao's unease grew stronger.
Suddenly.
Yunxiao thought of something.
"Third Sister, how is your destined substitute doing now?"
The divine sense transmitted a message from the clouds.
Upon hearing this...
Bixiao seemed to have just remembered that she had a substitute body, but she hadn't paid attention to it for a long time: "It's about to die."
Concise and to the point!
Ultimately.
Bixiao's current recovery to the point of being able to move freely is entirely thanks to her substitute.
Back then, Yunxiao and Qiongxiao used their life-bound substitutes to keep Bixiao alive, and then brought Bixiao back to the ancient realm.
After returning to the ancient realm, it took a lot of effort to transfer most of Bixiao's injuries to her natal substitute.
even so.
Bixiao's injuries are still very serious.
after all.
The power of the God-Slaying Whip should not be underestimated.
After her injuries were transferred, Bixiao finally woke up from her coma and regained some of her mobility.
As a price, Bixiao's life-bound substitute was left with only a breath.
And this substitute is Mu Mu.
She is Zhu Zhu of the Western Realm, Mu Mu of the Immortal Realm, and Bi Xiao of the Ancient Realm.
Yunxiao pondered for a moment: "She cannot die. Not only can she not die, but we also need to help her heal her injuries."
After a moment's thought, Qiongxiao understood the reason.
Bixiao was very puzzled.
Yunxiao explained, "In the memories of that substitute, she and Lu Hengge had a very good relationship. In fact, their relationship went beyond that of normal friends. If we spare her life, she will definitely be of great use in the future."
Qiongxiao agreed with this statement.
But Bixiao's expression was not good: "Eldest sister, just keeping her alive has consumed a lot of our rare and precious materials. If we want to save her, I'm afraid we won't have enough rare and precious materials."
Their status within the Jie Sect is now far less than before.
That's why.
They don't have many cultivation resources available to them.
These cultivation resources should have been kept for their own use; if they were used elsewhere, their situation would become even more dire.
Yunxiao's expression was serious: "Third Sister, trust me."
"This stand-in will be very important!"
"It might save our lives in a critical moment later!"
He said those words.
Even Qiongxiao was stunned.
Although she could understand Yunxiao's thoughts, wasn't this statement a bit of an exaggeration?
Yunxiao simply explained, "Second sister, third sister, don't underestimate Lu Henge's growth rate. I have a feeling that if he were still alive, his strength would be on par with ours, or even slightly stronger."
