Perhaps because the difference in their cultivation levels was too great, Lancao's magic had little effect on her.
She did have the ability to get rid of orchids. Even if she was still in the illusion, what did that mean? Did it mean that she had seen Gu Zhouzhou before, but had forgotten about it?
Su Lianyi shook her head, her thoughts returning to reality. She asked, "Taihao Immortal Venerable usually keeps to himself and has never considered taking in a disciple. So when did he accept you?"
The Taihao lineage is an expert in the art of medicine and is highly respected among cultivators. A pill is in short supply, so naturally there are many people who are eyeing their disciples. However, the Immortal Venerable is a loner and once stated that he has no intention of accepting any disciples. She has no memory of him ever having accepted any disciples.
Fearing that Gu Zhouzhou might misunderstand, she added, "I don't mean to offend you. If you answer me, I'll give you this magical weapon."
She spread out her palms, and a small tripod furnace, less than half the size of her palm, floated in the air.
"Nine Profound Realms Entering the Nether Cauldron?"
Gu Zhouzhou was envious when he saw the magic weapon. Su Lianyi curled her lips. She was very good at dealing with children.
Although the Jiuxuan Ding is a treasure, she is a talisman practitioner, and the Jiuxuan is of little use to her. However, Gu Zhouzhou is following the Taihao Immortal Venerable and will definitely learn alchemy in the future. With a handy cauldron, her practice will progress by leaps and bounds.
Of course, she didn't give it out for nothing.
At least we have to get everything the other party knows out of Gu Zhouzhou.
"You actually gave him the Nine Profound Cauldron." Li Qingxuan wanted to bite his handkerchief, staring at her with wide eyes, "Spendthrift little Junior Sister, you actually gave such a good thing to an outsider!"
"Ahh, wuwuwu." Li Qingxuan screamed and collapsed, crawling twistedly and roaring, "Before, I asked you to play with it for a while, but you were reluctant to give it to me. Now you actually give it to him!"
Junior sister is a talisman practitioner, and he is a fellow practitioner of Fu Dan.
Su Lianyi rolled her eyes, "Idiot."
Just two simple words, yet the damage was so great. Li Qingxuan was unwilling to give up and rolled even harder.
The flying crane's body trembled violently, frightening Gu Zhouzhou so much that his face turned pale.
Su Lianyi slapped him hard, and everything became quiet instantly.
Li Qingxuan: "...you are so cruel."
Su Lianyi didn't bother to pay attention to him and placed the Nine Profound Cauldron in Gu Zhouzhou's hand. "Answer my question quickly."
Gu Zhouzhou's clear eyes were free of any impurities, and he said innocently, "A year ago, my master brought me back from the human world."
"And then?" Su Lianyi continued to ask, "Taihao Immortal Venerable doesn't interact with the major sects, so why did he suddenly visit Kunlun?"
"It's to get medicine for me," Gu Zhouzhou responded frankly. "I don't have immortal bones, and Master intends to ask Patriarch Hongjun for elixirs to rebuild my muscles and bones. This is not a secret, and Master didn't hide it from you when he came to Kunlun. Junior Sister Lianyi, please feel free to ask."
Su Lianyi believed it.
The difficulty lies in that she is in a "illusion", and she doesn't know when it will be broken and will leave, so naturally she has no time to ask someone in the sect.
What surprised her was that great masters always prioritized a disciple's aptitude before recruiting him. Gu Zhouzhou, with no aptitude and relying on acquired talent, was almost nonexistent. However, it wasn't a big deal. Perhaps Gu Zhouzhou was the son of an old friend of Taihao Immortal Venerable, or perhaps a junior of his generation.
When she arrived at her destination, she realized that she had overthought.
The crane landed steadily in Zixiao Palace, where Hongjun and Taihao sat opposite each other.
"It's not that I'm delusional and want to force someone without talent into the immortal path, but this child has a special fate. He originally had outstanding talent, but was stripped of his immortal bones by an evil cultivator, and then he became an ordinary person."
"Eight years ago, when Zhou Zhou was born, a strange phenomenon appeared in the sky. My magical instrument sensed it, and I followed the guidance to search for him, and finally found him in the mortal world."
"I cast a spell to bestow blessings upon his biological parents, ordering them to raise him well. Before leaving, I used a magical instrument to conceal his immortal appearance, waiting until he was five years old to bring him back to the Immortal Medicine Palace to cultivate. However, I never imagined..." Taihao sighed at this point, "By the time I appeared as promised, his immortal bone had already been discovered and taken away by an evil cultivator."
Taihao was naturally disappointed and angry when such an outstanding disciple lost his immortal appearance.
"How could an evil cultivator be able to see through the deception that was personally set up by Immortal Master Taihao?" Su Lianyi asked in a low voice.
She obviously hadn't expected this story to unfold. Taihao, as an innate god, was no less powerful than his master. What kind of evil cultivator had the power to break through this?
"No." Gu Zhouzhou shook his head. "It was my parents in the mortal world who leaked it. The evil cultivators were good at bewitching them, offering them gold, silver, wealth, and supreme power. They couldn't resist the temptations of the mortal world, so they betrayed their master's promise and gave up on me."
When Gu Zhouzhou talked about these things, there was no change in his young face, and it was obvious that he no longer took them to heart.
"Is this still possible? Isn't this the same person but two families? He took the favors from Taihao Immortal Venerable, and still accepted things from evil cultivators." Li Qingxuan said indignantly.
"Besides, you are still their child, not a thing that can be sent here and there. Are there any parents like that in the world?"
Su Lianyi and Gu Zhouzhou both looked at him, and Su Lianyi even winked at him.
Li Qingxuan reacted and grabbed Gu Zhouzhou's hand: "Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying you're a thing, no, you're not a thing, ah, that's what I meant, not that... Junior Sister, what's wrong with your eyelids?"
Su Lianyi wanted to beat him up.
However, no matter how ferocious her face made, it had no deterrent effect at all.
"If your left eye twitches, it means good fortune; if your right eye twitches, it means disaster is coming."
Su Lianyi: ...
Su Lianyi: "Brother, I curse you to double the price when you go out to buy groceries, to have no toilet paper when you go to the toilet, to be criticized when you play chess, to have your food stick to the pan when you cook, to never be able to eat the crane cakes hot, to never find a Taoist partner in this life, and to be blessed with two sons."
As soon as she finished speaking, she suddenly felt something cold attacking her forehead. She subconsciously wiped it away, and a black ink dot fell down her forehead.
This is really embarrassing.
Li Qingxuan burst into laughter, "Serves you right! Who told you to curse me?"
After saying that, he was also attacked.
Hongjun's majestic voice sounded condescendingly: "Two naughty little brats, how dare you speak nonsense in front of your senior Taihao? You are making a fool of yourself!"
When the two young disciples were punished, Hongjun chuckled. Although he scolded them, he did not mean to blame them harshly.
Now it’s fair, no one has to fight, everyone has a stain on their face.
Patriarch Hongjun didn't say anything, just made them stand there as punishment. He turned to Taihao and continued, "I once owed the Immortal Medicine House a favor. Since they came to Kunlun for help, there is no reason to refuse."
"Kunlun doesn't have the method to reshape immortal bones, but your disciple's situation isn't completely unsolved. Kunlun possesses an immortal treasure, the Samsara Realm, which can travel back in time. As long as we stop the evil spirits from harming people, the problem can also be solved. His own immortal bones are always safer than using the Marrow Cleansing Pill to reshape bones. What do you think?"
Taihao Immortal Venerable replied: "Good."
"Thank you Kunlun for your generous help."
