Chapter 103 When to start? Now
Wu Yunsu officially entered the Ku Di Zen House, but he would not get too close to Xiaoqiu in front of others, but kept a certain distance.
Xiaoqiu was too lazy to ask. He was in a depressed mood, and his eyes often fell on Mingxin, not knowing what he was thinking.
After class, Wu Yunsu changed his attitude and quickly followed Xiaoqiu. He didn't say a word, but Xiaoqiu could hear his voice, "You need to practice. Stop overthinking and go back to practice."
Xiaoqiu turned to look at him. Wu Yunsu said, "You don't have to talk to me. I know what you're thinking."
Xiaoqiu asked in his heart, "What kind of poison have you cast on me again?"
"Conscience Gu, our cultivation is too low, we need to use Gu to achieve the effect of spiritual consciousness transmission."
"oh."
Wu Yunsu said, "I know you want to find out about Brother Xuan, but now is not the right time. Xuan Ji is not here, and our cultivation is limited to Qi training. All we can do now is practice."
"Practice, practice. Do you think I'm in the mood to practice now? Humans are not plants or trees. It's impossible to recover as if nothing happened so quickly.
Unlike His Highness, I'm not born with a natural state of mind. At the Qi training stage, I'm still a mortal, and mortals have mortal desires, with which come joy, anger, sorrow, and happiness. I simply can't accept this. I want to know if Qingxuan has anything to do with what happened to Brother Aotian.
"What do you want to do?"
"Honestly, I don't know." Xiaoqiu said frankly, "Your Highness always says I'm stupid. I didn't accept it at first, but now I have to admit that Your Highness is right, because I have no other choice."
Wu Yunsu was silent for a moment, then said, "I remember there are still quite a few demon corpses in your storage bag."
Xiaoqiu was stunned and said, "Yes, what's wrong?"
Wu Yunsu said, "Give it to me to refine the Gu. Then I'll help you investigate."
Xiaoqiu's pupils suddenly shrank. "You use demons to refine Gu. The Gu will carry the demon's blood and energy into your body. If you're not careful, you'll be possessed by the demon again."
"It's just a matter of probability. Besides, I can't just watch you mess around alone." Wu Yunsu said calmly.
Xiaoqiu felt a little uncomfortable, "I didn't expect that a demon like you is not bad, but you always bully me, I won't change my mind about you easily."
"Let's put one thing first. At least, you can only be bullied by me. I can't stand it if others bully you." Wu Yunsu said with a raised lip corner.
Xiaoqiu: "...Go to hell."
Neither of them thought of asking other brothers in the Zen House for help, not even Alsophila and Qiye.
Because everyone else accepted this ending, only Xiaoqiu was unwilling to give up and wanted to find out the truth.
Wu Yunsu thought he was silly, but also very cute.
He didn't hate the ball, he never hated the ball. When the young monk was not around, he naturally took over the responsibility of protecting the ball.
However, he still hoped that Xuan Ji could come out of seclusion as soon as possible. Although he didn't like Xuan Ji, his presence was indeed a reassurance.
If you want to use the corpse of a demon to refine Gu, you cannot do it in Roper. Although there are no rules in Roper that prohibit this behavior, out of the minimum respect for studying Zen, you cannot destroy the body of a demon in Roper.
Therefore, Wu Yunsu and Xiaoqiu rented a training room in a city outside Roper.
It was also the first time that Xiaoqiu saw the poisonous insect hidden in Wu Yunsu's body—
Wu Yunsu entered the Ku Di Zen House and naturally put on the uniform green robe of the disciples of the Luopo Zen Sect. However, he loved beauty and coquettishness, so he only wore the green robe as an outer robe over his red dress, revealing a large area of his collarbone and half of his chest, and even a short part of his waist.
Her hair was still braided into pigtails, interspersed with silver jewelry, giving her a gorgeous glow.
At this time, one poisonous insect after another crawled out of his snow-white skin. Some were as white as silkworms, some were black and purple, and some were colorful and strangely shaped.
Xiaoqiu frowned and couldn't help showing a look of disgust.
Wu Yunsu caught a glimpse of his expression and said, "These are the inheritance my mother left me. They are my treasures. After I transitioned to human cultivation, they have been dormant within me."
Ball: "Oh, they are so disgusting."
"I don't feel disgusted when you pinch me down there."
"Because your insect body is white, plump, and warm, it feels good to the touch, but these look scary." Xiaoqiu said.
Wu Yunsu said: "This is how the Gu worm works."
He didn't say anything else. He controlled the poisonous insects to drill into the demon's body and start gnawing at it.
The female demon left him a Gu King, but after the Gu King ate the female demon's body, it had not received any nutritional supplements, so it degenerated into a king cocoon. In order to break out of the cocoon, the king cocoon needed a large amount of demon flesh and blood.
The demon bodies in the small ball storage bag could not sustain the King Cocoon until it hatched, so Wu Yunsu did not think of using the King Cocoon.
With the background sound of dense poisonous insects gnawing at the demon's flesh and blood, Xiaoqiu asked Wu Yunsu: "What should we do?"
Wu Yunsu said: "The level of my poisonous insects is too low. They need to eat at least a thousand demons before they can quietly enter the body of a cultivator in the Foundation Establishment Stage."
He said with some regret: "If I were still a demon, with the strength of the Foundation Establishment Stage, I could directly cast a curse on them."
The ball said, "If you are a demon, you can't enter Roper."
"..." Wu Yunsu said, "So, I always feel like something went wrong."
Xiaoqiu looked at him puzzledly.
Wu Yunsu lowered his eyes and said slowly, "Xuan Ji was forced into a death retreat by the Zen sect, my father entered the Tiangang Secret Realm and his life or death is unknown, and I lost my cultivation because of my demon bloodline and was transformed into a human cultivator. Don't you think these are too many coincidences?"
Xiaoqiu said frankly: "I don't understand what you mean."
Amidst the horrifying sound of the poisonous insects gnawing at the demon's bones and blood, Wu Yunsu slowly said, "These coincidences seem to be paving the way for something even worse."
Xiaoqiu said: "You think too much."
Wu Yunsu said, "No."
Wu Yunsu's comprehension wasn't low; it was quite high, and he'd been well-informed by Chi Yu. When Chi Yu and Xie Xiyi were around, he didn't easily reveal his intelligence, but when they were both gone, his exceptionally high level of awareness became apparent. "One bad thing might be commonplace, but if bad things keep happening one after another, it's going to be hard to see a turnaround for quite some time, because there must be some irresistible pull."
Xiaoqiu: "...What do you want to say?"
Wu Yunsu said, "I would like to say that we shouldn't approach those two monks. In fact, our best option right now is to wait for your Highness to come out of seclusion."
Before Xiaoqiu could say anything, Wu Yunsu continued, "I know you won't be happy about this, and I have no intention of going back on my word."
He paused and continued, "Some things, when you know they are wrong, you still do them. What drives this irrational impulse is called emotion."
"I understand your anger and sadness, so I am willing to do this with you, even if it may slide into a worse situation, I am not afraid - because we are companions."
Xiaoqiu was stunned. He couldn't help but blush and stammered, "How come you are so talkative all of a sudden?"
Wu Yunsu paused, raised the corner of his lips, smiled faintly and said, "Like father, like son."
Xiaoqiu's face turned green, "Brother Aotian is only eighteen years old, he can't give birth to a son as old as you."
Wu Yunsu said, "Age is only an external appearance. Your brother Aotian has truly fulfilled his fatherly duties to me. He has taught me tirelessly, provided me with precious cultivation resources and magical instruments, and meticulously cared for me and looked after me. If he isn't a father, then what is he?"
Xiaoqiu couldn't refute it. He murmured, "Actually, I don't understand Brother Aotian. You were just a demon at first. You're not of my kind, so your heart must be different. And you're so small, yet he has no grudges against you."
"I don't understand it either, but it's because he treated me this way that I am who I am today," said Wu Yunsu.
When talking about Brother Aotian, Xiaoqiu's nose felt sore and he almost cried.
But he held back. A monk can only bleed, not cry.
After a few hours, these poisonous insects, after eating and drinking their fill, returned to Wu Yunsu's body one after another.
The overflowing demonic blood made Wu Yunsu's purple eyes have a deeper color. He sat down cross-legged and tried to separate the blood from his physical cultivation. Because of the difficulty, his beautiful face turned red, his whole body was hot, and he emitted billowing white mist.
"How long will it take?" asked the ball.
Wu Yunsu closed his eyes and replied, "It will take another ten days."
"Ten days..." Xiaoqiu pursed his lips.
"It's fast enough. You can't rush things like this."
"I see." Xiaoqiu said, "I don't have enough demons in my storage bag. I'll go see if I can buy some demon corpses at the market."
Wu Yunsu opened his eyes and said, "No, I told you, we have to act together."
He paused and said softly, "I'll be worried about you."
Xiaoqiu blushed slightly and said proudly, "Don't always imitate Brother Aotian's speech. No matter how much you imitate him, you're still not him. I still prefer the way you looked at me and bullied me before."
Wu Yunsu: “…”
He had no choice but to say, "Then you, come back quickly."
"I understand! You don't have to worry about it. This is not a wild land, but the Free Continent!" Xiaoqiu said, striding out of the training room.
Wu Yunsu closed his eyes again and continued to calm the restless demon blood in his body.
*
Xiaoqiu came to the market, found a boss he was familiar with, and asked to buy the demon's corpse.
The boss was a little surprised. "So much? Hongbao's training is over. I can't give out so much for the time being. Please wait, I'll go ask someone."
When Xiaoqiu saw the boss take out a jade talisman made of Alsophila spinulosa and seven leaves, he couldn't help but mutter to the boss, "This jade talisman was my brother Aotian's idea."
Boss: “Hmm?”
He didn't pay attention to what Xiaoqiu said and continued to contact the person on the other end of the jade talisman.
At this moment, Xiaoqiu's peripheral vision was attracted by a figure. He was stunned for a moment, rubbed his eyes, and looked at the figure. His eyes suddenly lit up, "Lianchi... Senior Brother?"
Lianchi was wearing a green robe, his profile clearly visible under the curtain of a stall. He raised his foot and left without looking around.
The little ball demon didn't want it anymore and chased after Lian Chi, "Brother Lian Chi! Brother Lian Chi!"
He passed through one cultivator after another, but Lianchi walked faster and faster without stopping, and soon disappeared from the small ball's eye.
"Lianchi..." Xiaoqiu's voice lowered and his pace slowed down.
At this moment, his shoulder suddenly bumped into someone, and a cold voice came to his ears, "Junior Brother Xiaoqiu."
Xiaoqiu raised his eyes and saw Qingxuan, and beside Qingxuan were Jingguan and Wuyou.
Xiaoqiu was stunned for a moment and said, "Why are you here?"
Jingguan said: "We are collecting information about the secret realm. This was Junior Brother Qingxuan's idea."
Qingxuan said, "Junior Brother Xiaoqiu, I know you are worried about Junior Brother Long. Since it is my fault, even if there is only a one in ten thousand chance, I will still try."
Xiaoqiu said: "I don't understand what you are talking about."
Qingxuan said, "The secret realm is a crack in the world, but I have heard that the crack in the secret realm may also lead to another secret realm. Therefore, I am looking for other secret realms that have been opened during this period. Perhaps Junior Brother Long is among them."
Wuyou said, "Junior Brother Qingxuan, this isn't your fault. There's no need to take it on yourself again and again. We're all heartbroken over what happened to Junior Brother Long, but that's the way things are in the world of cultivation. We don't have the luxury of time to grieve for him. He's gone, and all we can do is move on. It's a pity for Junior Brother Long, but we're also at fault. Before entering the secret realm, we promised Junior Brother Lianchi that we would protect him, but neither of us did. If anything, it's Senior Brother Jingguan and I who are at fault, and we should apologize."
Xiaoqiu listened and felt it was very strange, but he didn't know what was strange. He stood there for a few breaths, and finally he barely used his limited life experience to find a similar fragment -
In Prince Yi's Mansion, his father had many concubines, and his mother was one of them. Although there were no bloody disputes, there were many intrigues.
This scene is very similar to when his mother bullied others and pretended to be innocent in front of his father to gain sympathy and establish her character as calm as a chrysanthemum.
Xiaoqiu understood immediately - this Qingxuan was pretending to be innocent in front of Jingguan and Wuyou! ! !
Xiaoqiu's heart suddenly burned with anger. He had never seen Qingxuan getting close to other cultivators before. Now that Brother Aotian was in trouble, he dragged people over as spectators to reinforce the impression that he looked innocent. It was obvious that he had something to hide!
Xiaoqiu is not smart enough, but he has relatively rich life experience, so he can notice Qingxuan's abnormality.
But Jingguan and Wuyou were both from the nth generation of immortals with good family backgrounds, and had no ordinary experience and knowledge, so they were naturally played around by Qingxuan.
Xiaoqiu knew very well that the more times like this, the more he should not lose his temper, because when his father confronted the concubine that his mother had bullied, the woman felt wronged and was so angry that she lost her composure and pushed his father towards his mother!
Xiaoqiu forced a smile and said dryly, "Brother Qingxuan, Brother Wuyou is right. You must not blame yourself. Life and death are determined by fate, and wealth and honor are determined by heaven. Brother Aotian is unlucky on his own. If he knew you blamed yourself, he wouldn't be happy."
Qingxuan raised his eyelids and glanced at him gently, "I know, Junior Brother Xiaoqiu, it seems that you have calmed down a lot."
Xiaoqiu said, "Yes, it's perfectly normal for a cultivator to encounter such a thing. Now that the person has passed away, all we can do is continue to cultivate. We must not let this incident affect our Daoist heart. If a person's heart is so easily affected by the separation of life and death, then their cultivation will surely come to an end."
Jingguan and Wuyou sighed, "Junior Brother Xiaoqiu, you have such a keen understanding. I'm sure you will enter the Dao Di Zen Temple sooner or later."
Qingxuan looked down at him quietly, "Junior Brother Xiaoqiu, you are right."

After everyone dispersed, Qingxuan walked into an alley and casually set up a barrier. A handsome man emerged from the wall and asked, "When will we start?"
The person asking the question was naturally Ukizawa.
Qingxuan lowered his eyes and said, "Now."
