Chapter 78 (Talking about business)



Ran Ran looked at him with murderous intent, and felt an indescribable bitterness in her heart. He had forgotten everything and was now staring at her like an enemy. Was he going to break her neck in the next moment?

It's better this way. She now needs to transfer more and more true Qi. If Su Yishui keeps transferring Qi to her, sooner or later she will become skinny like the boys adopted by Mu Ranwu.

Thinking of this, Ran Ran didn't even want to dodge. He just closed his eyes quietly, looking like he was ready to be slaughtered.

Wei Yan had taken some action and was ready to strike. He could only rush over and rescue Su Yishui when he had the murderous intention.

Although this master-disciple murder was instigated by Wei Yan, as long as Xue Ranran is not stupid, she will naturally see who is the one who will protect her at the critical moment.

That Su Yishui is a complete ungrateful person! He went on a killing spree just because Xue Ranran forgot a piece of memory. How true is this kind of love? It's scary to think about it, isn't it?

Mu Ranwu also sneered and waited to watch the good show of the massacre between the master and his disciple from two generations.

Wei Yan really has some means. He actually used the Drunken Immortal to do such a thing. It would be the best if my sister died at the hands of Su Yishui.

She looked at Xue Ranran with a complicated expression, thinking: Sister, this is not my fault. You can only blame yourself for loving the wrong person...

Yu Tong and Yu Chen on the side were also shocked.

When Yuchen came to his senses, he immediately glared at Ranran and asked, "You female demon, what on earth do you want to do to the master?"

Bai Baishan and Gao Cang worked together to surround the excited master uncle, and Qiu Xier also said, "What can she do? Of course, she can cook. Isn't it always you, master uncle, who eats the most?"

After hearing this, Yu Chen's wide eyes shrank a little and he was speechless for a moment. After all, he was a man of honor and a little lacking in confidence.

However, after listening to Wei Yan's words, the knot in Yu Tong's mind suddenly became clear.

Why did the master, who had been depressed for more than 20 years after Mu Qingge's death, seem to come back to life after taking in Ran Ran...

It turns out that the master has been waiting for Mu Qingge to be reborn from the beginning to the end. In his heart...

Thinking of this, Yu Tong ignored his previous prejudice against Mu Qingge and hurriedly stepped forward to stand in front of Su Yishui: "Master, you must not do this! This Ran Ran, you... are the one who is most distressed!"

At this time, Mu Ranwu began to slowly add firewood to the fire: "Yes, sister is the most likable when she is thoughtful and humble to please others. My master loved her as much as Su Yishui did! When sister was a master, Su Yishui respected her. Now that she is a disciple, she is still loved by him. It's really enviable!"

Her seemingly envious words were actually adding fuel to the fire.

It would have been better if she hadn't said anything. As soon as she finished speaking, Su Yishui's cold eyes shot straight at her.

Mu Ranwu was very afraid of him now, so when she saw his eyes looking at her, she couldn't help but take a few steps back.

Su Yishui retracted his gaze and looked down at the little girl in front of him who had her eyes tightly closed. She seemed quite peaceful with her eyes closed, as if she was calm about life and death, and was courting death... If she was really Mu Qingge... how could he let her die so easily?

For a moment, Su Yishui weighed the pros and cons and suppressed the anger in his heart.

The noisy woman beside him had no good intentions, and even if Su Yishui was furious, he would not do anything stupid.

Since she has become Xishan's disciple in this life, then how he teaches her a lesson behind closed doors is his own business. There is no need for someone else to watch and gloat over the fun.

After the rage in his heart turned over and over again, he took a deep breath and suppressed it. After a moment of silence, he said in a cold voice: "What are you all standing there for? Hurry up and get the compass and look for it!"

Wei Yan tore off Xue Ranran's disguise with the intention of sowing discord between the master and disciple in these two lives. If Su Yishui hurt Mu Qingge and severed their feelings, he really wouldn't mind removing the curse for Su Yishui. Su Yishui would surely look very regretful at that time!

But no one expected that Su Yishui's expression just changed a few times, and then he looked like he was going to let the situation go peacefully.

After this astonishing boulder smashed down, all the water splashed onto Wei Yan's face, which looked so lonely!

So he was a little bit unbelievable, and asked Su Yishui with a sullen face: "Why? Did you know it a long time ago?"

Could it be that Su Yishui had already discovered Ran Ran's true identity, so he treated her so gently and didn't care at all?

He wanted to say more, but Ranran had already swept over with a whirl of her sleeves: "Get out of the way, a good dog doesn't block the road!" Then she also walked forward with a compass in her hand, with a stern face.

Wei Yan was so angry that he almost laughed. You are so good, Xue Ranran! You actually called me a dog? Let's see if I can let you leave Chiyan Mountain alive!

At the moment, he still wanted to use these people, but when he failed to instigate them, he snorted coldly and flew back to the cliff, continuing to drink his ice wine leisurely.

However, the younger generation in Xishan did not have the self-control of their master, and they were completely upset.

After going through the relationships between the characters, Qiu Xier slowly moved to Ran Ran's side and whispered, "Ran Ran, should I call you Junior Sister or Grandmaster?"

Ran Ran sighed: "Ancestor, stop making trouble, hurry up and find it, the temperature will rise soon and we won't be able to bear it..."

The back of the Scarlet Flame Mountain is where Duntian refined the Human Demon King. As long as the Human Demon King's body is not decomposed, his spirit will not be extinguished, so the gold-tempering fire that can refine his true body must be hidden here.

Therefore, the temperature here is also the highest in the entire Chiyan Mountain.

Ran Ran carried her and Su Yishui's water bags with her, so she took one off and handed it to the man who had remained silent the whole time: "It's hot, drink some water first to quench your thirst..."

But when she reached out to him, he didn't even look at it, let alone show any intention of taking it.

Ranran reluctantly took back the water bag, thinking that it would be better not to talk to Su Yishui for the time being.

She didn't think she had done anything wrong. She was reincarnated because of his own ideas. Now that he forgot to clean up, there was no reason to blame her.

Thinking of this, Ran Ran calmed down and looked at the compass in his hand, wanting to find the gold-tempering fire as soon as possible.

So she took back the water bag and stopped going to Su Yishui.

But when Ran Ran withdrew the water bag, Su Yishui felt even more unhappy - no matter how cold he was in the past, this little disciple always stood by him and was loyal and filial.

Now that the truth has been exposed, she is too lazy to pretend anymore and walks around him...

Thinking of this, he said coldly: "Where's the water? Bring it here!"

Ranran quickly raised her head and glanced at him, then handed the water bag to him. However, when she handed it to him, he refused to take it and looked like he was looking for trouble.

Suddenly Su Yishui reached out and grabbed her, and with a leap, he took her away from the crowd. After crossing several bare hills, they turned into a valley.

He pinched her chin and forced her to the side of a bare stone wall, gritting his teeth and saying, "You have deceived me for so long, Mu Qingge, you are really capable!"

Seeing him act up, Ran Ran felt relieved. She guessed that after the petty-minded beast knew the truth, how could he make light of it like he did just now?

But seeing that he looked like he was asking for an indictment, Ran Ran also got angry. She waved his hand away with force: "Who wants to lie to you! If you unlock the soul-cleansing talisman, you will know that you knew everything from beginning to end. But I, who was clearly your mentor, was accepted as your disciple. Isn't this out of line? When I first found out who I was, I didn't jump up and down like you!"

Su Yishui was so angry that he smiled a little bit evilly: "I would take the initiative to accept you? You must have used some tricks, otherwise, how could I keep you by my side?"

Ran Ran was helpless and didn't want to argue with the stubborn bull, so he could only say: "Okay, okay, I pretended to be pitiful and deceived you, and begged for admission into your school. After this is over, it's up to you. You can kick me out of Xishan and we will end our relationship as master and disciple."

Hearing Ran Ran say this, Su Yishui didn't even think about it, and said intuitively: "You dare!"

Ran Ran was a little helpless because of his teasing. She squeezed the water bag in her hand and gulped down a few mouthfuls. "What is there to be afraid of? You have forgotten our past and only remember my bad things. What did I do to you in the past? Didn't I raise you clean and well, without any lack of food or clothing? As for the things in our lives, it's really bad that I'm the only one who remembers them. When you meet the Wine Immortal, you don't have to wait for him to remove the talisman for you. I will ask him for a soul-cleansing talisman first to cleanse my memory of you. By then, you will be a stranger. No matter how you treat me, I won't be sad!"

When she said this, Ranran's eyes were red, but she had a stubborn expression, which made people unable to help but... feel a pain in their hearts.

Su Yishui was fine at first, but when he heard her say that she wanted to forget him completely, his heart once again felt like it was being strangled and he felt so painful that he couldn't breathe.

The aftereffects of spending the whole night yesterday also came up at this time. Although Su Yishui had a fierce expression, his legs went weak again and he collapsed on Ranran's body.

He really didn't expect that the evil master in his previous life didn't torture him to death, but he was angered to death by the reincarnated evil master.

Ran Ran didn't expect the tall man to fall down so easily. She was so scared that she quickly helped him up. She was afraid that Wei Yan and his men would take advantage of the situation and rush in, so she could only whisper, "Master, Master, what's wrong with you?"

Su Yishui just had a short breath of Qi. After drinking the water Ran Ran fed him, he felt much better. He waved away Ran Ran's hand that was wiping the corner of his mouth: "Don't call me Master!"

Ran Ran paused and whispered, "Then I can't call you Shui'er either. How about... calling you Mr. Su from now on?"

Mr. Su sounded like a proper title, but this word reminded Su Yishui inexplicably that he was older than her now, and calling him Mr. Su was polite. If she just called him Uncle Su, it wouldn't be too much...

Su Yishui's heart was irritated again. What on earth was the reason that made him resurrect this annoying person without any care, and put her by his side to annoy him all the time?

If they had not spent all this time together, perhaps he would have been able to kill the witch with his own heart.

But even if he had forgotten all the past, the memory of their time together was still there, and she had cast a spell on him, causing him to always follow her with his eyes. It seemed that if he couldn't see her, he would not be in any spirit for the whole day.

Su Yishui didn't know what kind of trap Xue Ranran had set for him, but if she disappeared before the trap was untied, wouldn't that make him even more upset?

At this time, Ran Ran spoke again: "Um...Mr. Su, it's getting late, you should hurry up and find something..."

But Su Yishui did not move, his eyes fixed on the cliff behind Ranran.

The stone wall behind them looked like burnt stone, so its charred color was nothing surprising.

But just now Ranran was pressed against the stone wall by Su Yishui, and the weather was hot, so the sweat on her back seeped into the stone wall.

As a result, at the moment Ran Ran stood up, a picture suddenly appeared on the stone wall. However, it was too hot here, and the watermark pattern suddenly disappeared.

Su Yishui took the water bag from Ranran and poured it onto the cliff. With the rising hot steam, the magnificent pattern appeared again.

Ran Ran saw it clearly this time. It was a totem of a red bird subduing a demon. As the totem appeared, the abdomens of the two ghost-headed spiders held by the red bird on the stone wall showed round holes.

Ran Ran suddenly had an idea and quickly took out the purple demon pills he had obtained from killing the ghost-headed spider in his arms, and embedded the two largest ones into the two holes.

With this placement, it was perfectly placed, and the entire totem became radiant because of the demon pill. The two spiders actually moved. They broke free from the claws of the Vermillion Bird, desperately pulled the spider silk to crawl to the left and right, and forcibly split a gap in the stone wall.

When the crack opened, another wave of heat came and orange-red magma flowed out from the cracks in the rock.

The two of them retreated, but Ran Ran was a step behind, and the magma still flowed to his feet...

"Be careful!" Sailor Su Yi acted quickly and picked up the little girl, flew to a high place, and avoided the hot magma.

But Ranran exclaimed in surprise, because even though she had just touched the magma, she didn't feel her feet burned at all.

She couldn't help but flutter her feet in Su Yishui's arms, but she found that the place where her straw sandals touched the magma had frozen into ice...

The strange situation here temporarily stopped the quarrel between the master and the apprentice who were about to fall apart. Ran Ran asked Mr. Su to put her down and tried to touch the magma eyes with the pair of straw sandals. The pair of straw sandals immediately froze into ice, completely isolating the heat under the feet, so that they could walk on the magma.

Ran Ran was a little surprised, and quickly took out the other pair of straw sandals that the shop owner had given her from her arms. She looked at them carefully, but did not find anything unusual about them.

"Who is that old man? Could it be that he had anticipated all this and gave me this pair of straw sandals?" Ran Ran couldn't help but mutter to himself.

Su Yishui reached out and took the pair from her hand, put them on himself, and said, "I'll go in and take a look. You don't have to go in. Just wait outside."

Ranran looked at him with a complicated expression. She knew clearly that he was not afraid that she would go in and snatch the gold-tempering fire, but that he was afraid that she would put herself in danger.

He has always been like this. Even though his mouth is a bit foul, he has always been kind to her with his actions...

"No, I want to go in with you. This is due north, the direction where I make my fortune. It will definitely be safe!"

After saying that, she went in first.

Su Yishui thought: Why didn't I see through her earlier? Although her temperament in this life seems to be more respectful and docile than in the previous life, her stubbornness and unwillingness to listen to others' advice is exactly the same!

As the two of them walked into the crevice, the people behind them also followed the sound of the stone wall cracking and found this place.

When he saw the master and disciple walking on the magma and entering the crevice, Wei Yan hurriedly flew up and chased after them towards the crevice in the rock wall.

But the heat from the cracks in the rocks was so strong that even with his spirit shield he couldn't hold it back. And when he flew above the magma, there was a suction force that kept pulling him down.

Wei Yan watched the two men walking on the magma, so he also tried to land. The heat was so severe that the elixir in his dantian almost burst out.

This is too damn hot!

How did those two hold up? Could it be that their cultivation levels were so much higher than his?

Wei Yan's feet were so burned that he couldn't touch the ground. He quickly took a breath and jumped back, then sat down on the ground. The dignified Demon Lord was like a child who couldn't get candy. He could only watch the two people walk into the gap...

Even Wei Yan couldn't get in, let alone the others. When the magma surged out, they could only retreat one after another, waiting for the two people who entered the cave to bring good news.

As for Ranran and Su Yishui, they walked along the path as if it were flat ground wearing ice grass shoes. Only after they entered the crevice did they discover that this was a barrier covered with magma.

When you walk in, you'll see gushing magma, and above the magma hangs a half skeleton.

This skeleton looks quite strange. Although it is in human shape, it appears to be much larger than an ordinary person. If this person is still alive, he should be more than ten feet tall.

Beneath the skeleton was a raging fire, and now only the sternum and skull were left of this half skeleton.

As they entered, the ribcage, which had been burnt to a crisp, suddenly turned into powder, leaving only a huge golden skull. Two large, hollow eyes, with blazing flames, stared grimly at the two intruders...

"Could this be the skeleton of the Human Demon King? It's been so many years, why haven't the bones been completely refined yet?" Ranran asked doubtfully.

Su Yishui said calmly: "The Human Demon King is the first generation of demons born in the underworld, and has an indestructible body. That's why Duntian sought the gold-tempering fire from the heaven to refine his bones and prevent him from being reborn. If it was ordinary true fire, even after another ten thousand years, it would not be able to refine his bones."

Ran Ran understood, and she frowned and said, "The skeleton of the Human Demon King still has the skull. If we take away the Gold Tempering Fire now, wouldn't it be a waste of our efforts?"

Su Yishui nodded slowly.

Ran Ran suddenly shouted in a low voice: "Oh no! We opened the forbidden door, get out quickly!"

This place has been hidden for thousands of years. There is no rain in the Red Flame Mountain all year round, and the stone walls are not stained by water. Logically, it should not be discovered by anyone.

If one more moment passes, the skeleton of the Human Demon King, which has been refined for a long time, will be completely refined.

However, since monsters kept appearing in various places in Daqi, someone was carefully planning and guiding them step by step to find this place.

Including the ghost-headed spiders in the village before, all of them were the key to opening the stone wall. But she and her master happened to encounter them, so it seemed natural for them to come here... but it was also very inappropriate!

When Ran Ran realized this, Su Yishui also thought of it. So he pulled Ran Ran back quickly and prepared to close the stone wall.

But suddenly, a biting cold wind blew in from the cracks in the stone wall, and the two people were separated.

Ran Ran steadied himself and when he looked again, the golden skull had completely disappeared.

The blazing fire lost its target and began to wane and dissipate, eventually turning into a red bead the size of a flint, circling in mid-air...

Su Yishui used water as a guide to wrap around the bead and condense it into an ice bead. The golden flame in the ice bead was the gold-tempering fire they were looking for.

But there was no joy on Ran Ran's face, and neither did Su Yishui. They knew that they were being used, but they didn't know who was using them.

When the two came out, the elders of Kongshan and Feiyun couldn't wait to ask: "How is it? Did you get the Gold Tempering Fire?"

Su Yishui didn't say anything, but just looked straight at Wei Yan who was sitting on the chair brought by the church.

His favorite general Tu Jiuyi was applying medicine to his foot.

This guy loves to show off and wants to be a good boy. If he had stolen the skull, he would never embarrass himself in front of others like this.

The first person Su Yishui excluded from his mind was Wei Yan.

At this time, Ran Ran whispered to him: "Mr. Su, don't tell these people about the skull of the demon king in the cave."

After hearing this, Su Yishui couldn't help but glance at Xue Ranran indifferently.

However, Xue Ranran felt that no one in Chiyan Mountain was righteous. If she told them about the skull, she could guess with her eyes closed what nonsense these people would say.

It was something like "As expected of the former demon boy and witch, they colluded with each other and let the first generation of human-demon escape."

After all, in her previous life, they always threw dirty water and took the blame for Mu Qingge.

In this case, we can't be too honest! We need to investigate the evil wind that took away the skull, but we must not get involved with these people.

But Su Yishui was probably thinking the same thing as her, so when everyone asked him impatiently if he had found the gold-quenching fire, he just took out the ice ball and said, "This should be it..."

Everyone immediately gathered around with sharp eyes, but at this moment, countless disciples of the Red Gate poured out from all around the mountain nest.

The elder of Feiyun Sect asked in a sharp voice: "Wei Yan, what do you want to do?"

Wei Yan sneered and said, "I told you that you can search freely in this Scarlet Flame Mountain. But to find the Gold Tempering Fire and take it away, it depends on whether you have the ability to do so!"

Su Yishui said loudly: "The things are in my hands, and I have no intention of taking them away. Your Excellency Wei, let's talk business!"

Wei Yan smiled sinisterly and asked, "What business?"

"You can exchange one person for this Gold Tempering Fire. Then, you can have a good talk with the elders of other sects about how to pacify the monsters in the world. What do you think?"
