Chapter 61: Walking and Looking for a Long Time
“Spiritual fragrance…Spiritual fragrance…”
In the chaos, Lingxiang suddenly heard someone calling her.
"Who is it? Who is calling me?"
She asked loudly, but the voice was still unclear.
"...at...Yunfeng...come...find me..."
"What? What did you say?" Lingxiang looked around, but there was only endless darkness.
“…Yunfeng…Chang…Yunfeng…”
Suddenly, a ray of light fell from above Lingxiang's head. She opened her eyes suddenly and saw a white orchid blooming vividly on the emerald green curtain. It turned out to be her own bedroom.
She tried to get up, but felt a sharp pain in her legs. Then she suddenly remembered that she had been hit by the cauldron.
As her mind gradually returned, Lingxiang felt a pain and itchiness in her calves, as if her bones were being corroded. She wanted to get up and check, but she had no strength.
Just then, Maidong came in with a bowl of medicine. Seeing Lingxiang wake up, he hurried forward to help her get up.
"You woke up pretty quickly. I'm afraid Master won't be here for another half an hour."
Lingxiang saw that her eyes were red and swollen, which must be because she had been taking care of her day and night, so she said thank you for your hard work.
When Maidong heard this, he gently pushed her.
"We've been sisters for many years. How can I bear to see you suffer?" She picked up the medicine bowl, blew on it, and handed it to Lingxiang.
"Master said that although the bone-repairing pill can help you grow bones, the injuries to your skin, flesh, tendons and veins still need to be slowly healed with medicine. I'm afraid you won't be able to get out of bed for a few days."
"Bone-repairing Pill?" Lingxiang didn't expect that she was so seriously injured that she had to use the Bone-repairing Pill. It was not an ordinary item, and she had never refined one so far.
"How long have I been asleep?"
"It's been four days. Master was worried you couldn't bear the pain of bone regeneration, so he gave you Holy Sleeping Powder while treating you. Perhaps he felt the wild eggplant was too strong, so after feeding it to you yesterday, he instructed us not to use it anymore. Are you feeling any worse now?"
Lingxiang shook her head. Apart from the unbearable pain in her wounds and the general weakness, she didn't feel any discomfort anywhere. But that was something she should have experienced during healing.
Long Qi paced back and forth in the room anxiously. Ever since he learned that Lingxiang was in trouble, he always looked uneasy.
"No, I have to go find Lingxiang!" Long Qi said as he was about to go out, but was stopped by Liu Xia.
"Let's not even mention what the elder in charge of punishment said that day, forbidding us from setting foot on Qingwei Peak. Just by going there like this, what can you do?"
Long Qi knew that what he said made sense, but he was still worried. He had been restless these days, fearing that something might happen to Lingxiang.
"Banxia heard that it was the Elder in Charge of Punishment who personally treated Miss Lingxiang. It's getting late now, and the Elder in Charge of Punishment has his lunch class tomorrow. Why don't we go and ask him after class tomorrow? Even if he doesn't allow us to visit, it would be better if we could ask for details. It's better than worrying now, right?" Liu Xia let go of Long Qi and analyzed the situation carefully for him to listen to.
Upon hearing this, Zhao Wuyang quickly agreed, "The Elder in Charge of Punishment is a kind man with profound attainments in the art of medicine. My mother took the medicine he prescribed, and her health gradually improved. If Miss Lingxiang really has something wrong, with the Elder in Charge of Punishment, she will definitely be safe. Don't worry, Seventh Brother."
Although the two said this, Long Qi still felt uneasy. At this time, Xinyi said:
"If something really happened, even if you go now, you won't be able to do anything. And there's no news from the sect right now, so I think there should be no problem."
After hearing what Xinyi said, Long Qi gave up the idea of going to look for Lingxiang. However, he still tossed and turned at night and couldn't fall asleep.
The next day, as soon as the afternoon class was over, Long Qi hurriedly stopped Master Fuyin, bowed hastily and asked about Lingxiang's current situation.
Master Fuyin then looked at Long Qi carefully. He seemed to have a strong body and a heroic look, but there was a hint of worry in his eyes.
"Are you the disciple Lingxiang recruited from outside?"
Long Qi responded and asked again about the spiritual incense.
Master Fuyin did not make it difficult for him and just told him the truth.
When Long Qi heard that Lingxiang's leg was broken, he immediately thought of the girl's small body having to endure such severe pain. He felt extremely distressed and hurriedly asked Master Fuyin to let him visit Lingxiang.
"Speaking of which, since you are a disciple, you should serve your master when she is injured. But she needs careful care now. As a man, I'm afraid it will be a bit inconvenient for you..." Master Fuyin said carefully.
"Although I don't understand medicine, I can still help with some rough work. I hope that uncle will allow me to visit you." Long Qi said as he bowed.
Master Fuyin thought of the unrecognizable houses, thought for a moment, and nodded.
"Come with me."
...In a cave in the territory of Manzhou, Chi Yanzi was meditating and regulating his breathing, while Wu Yuan was guarding the cave entrance, carefully paying attention to the movements outside the cave.
The previous fierce battle with the man in black took up too much energy. If Wu Yuan had not arrived in time, I really don’t know what would have happened to me.
After one small cycle, Chi Yanzi felt a little recovered and stood up to thank Wu Yuan.
Wu Yuan seemed a little uncomfortable. He had never received such a generous gift from anyone in his life. He just touched his nose awkwardly and talked about other things.
"What are you doing in this barbarian land, you old man? And why are you being hunted by those monsters?"
Chi Yanzi then told the story of saving Lingxiang and summarized what he had learned in the past few days.
It turned out that after the Demon Lord was injured more than ten years ago, he fled to the Barbarian Continent with a group of his subordinates. The recuperation over the years seemed to have restored his vitality, and he was ready to make another move.
"I was so anxious to save people at that time that I didn't think about anything else. Later, I thought about it carefully and realized that the elixir used by Lingxiang could only be refined by one person, and that person was my master, Fairy Tumi." Chi Yanzi coughed twice as he spoke.
"Are you saying that Miss Lingxiang is related to your master?" Wu Yuan asked doubtfully, "But didn't you say before that your master had passed away a long time ago?"
"That's right, it was when the demons massacred Yuan Qing fourteen years ago."
"Is your master from the Yuanqing sect?"
"I don't know about that. To be honest, I was just a nominal disciple accepted by Fairy Tumi when she was traveling a while ago. She brought me into the Taoist sect and taught me magic. After I grew up, she sent me to practice on my own."
"Then how do you know that Miss Lingxiang can't refine the medicine?" Wu Yuan rolled his eyes. The little fox was much more powerful than him, an old fox.
"It's not that the spiritual incense cannot be refined. It's just that when I was practicing with my master, this elixir was still under development. Later, I met a person from the demon clan and tried the prescription, and it was considered a success." Chi Yanzi said with a serious face.
"What do you mean?" Wu Yuan looked puzzled when he saw him like this.
"She used the Life-Extending Pill to save the demon, and that demon was the Demon Lord who massacred the Yuanqing Sect fourteen years ago..."
