Chapter 62: Meticulous as Silk, Sai Luban
"What?!" Wu Yuan was shocked. "If it's true as you said, then the Yuanqing catastrophe was caused by your master?"
"That's not the case," Chi Yanzi rolled his eyes. Why didn't he realize before that Wu Yuan was such a person who made hasty conclusions?
"At that time, Master had refined five life-extending pills, but he wasn't sure if they would work. He happened to encounter a Demon Lord whose life was hanging by a thread, so Master tested the medicine on him. After the Demon Lord recovered, Master saw that he was kind and allowed him to travel with him."
"Ahem!" Wu Yuan coughed lightly. "Your master just randomly picked someone to test the medicine on? He didn't even care if the medicine was poisonous?"
"Uh..." Upon hearing this, Chi Yanzi thought about his master and couldn't help but sigh. What a remarkable woman she was. Then he quickly explained to Fairy Tumi, "The Demon Lord was already on the verge of exhaustion at the time. He would have died without medicine, so Master decided to give it a try."
Although he was still young at the time, Chi Yanzi felt that this explanation was far-fetched when he recalled the smug look on Fairy Tumi's face when she said "kill two birds with one stone"...
His master couldn't be judged by common sense...
"Come to think of it, why did you come to Manzhou?" Chi Yanzi put aside the laughter of Fairy Tumi that kept lingering in his mind and asked.
Upon hearing this, Wu Yuan gave an explanation. It turned out that after the incident in Cangzhou, Wu Yuan began to wander around. He originally wanted to go to Lingxiang's place, but he didn't know where to look. Miss Liu Lan knew that he wanted to travel around, so she entrusted him to come to Manzhou to find out about his lover who didn't know whether he was dead or alive. He thought that he had nothing to do anyway, so he agreed, but unfortunately he met Chi Yanzi.
"Have you found it?"
"The war between the two countries happened a long time ago, and the battlefield has long been cleared. There is no clue to it, so it is not easy to find it." Wu Yuan said, smoothing the hem of his robe. Then he said: "If they are destined to meet, they will meet again. I just fulfilled her infatuation. Let's put these aside for now and talk about the demon clan first."
"Back then, the master gave the life-extending elixir to three powerful families in the mortal world for safekeeping. However, after the Yuanqing catastrophe, the people in those three families were also robbed. I was fortunate enough to meet the daughter of one of those families, but she married someone else early to avoid the disaster. Such a coincidence might have been done by the demons." Chi Yanzi said, standing up and walking to Wu Yuan's side.
"According to what you said, we should go to the Yuanqing Sect now." Wu Yuan pondered.
Chi Yanzi pondered for a moment, felt that this made sense, and began to think about it.
…
Ever since Long Qi visited Lingxiang, he stayed in Xianyunju. Lingxiang originally did not allow him to do so, but he did the same as he did in Youranju before, and he actually cleaned up the side room next to Lingxiang on his own. He was so dishonest, and even called it: repairing the house and taking care of the spiritual plants.
Lingxiang had difficulty walking and couldn't take him, so she had to let him stay with a sullen look on her face. After all, as Long Qi said, her precious spiritual plants were still very delicate.
It would take a hundred days to heal this broken bone. Although Lingxiang believed she had a magic pill, her leg bones were shattered after all, so it would not be easy to heal. Staying in the small space of the house all day would be suffocating even for an ordinary person.
That day, Lingxiang was lying on the bed, bored and reciting the Heart Purification Sutra, hoping that the day would pass quickly. However, she could not calm down at all when she heard the banging sounds in the yard.
Long Qi is quite diligent. When it comes to renovating the house, he really has no time to spare.
Just when Lingxiang was thinking about how to get Long Qi back to the outer disciples' residence, the sound outside the house stopped.
Lingxiang was puzzled. Could it be that the house was repaired so quickly? But then she saw Long Qi pushing a chair into the house.
I saw that the chair was polished to a shine, with a wooden wheel on each side, like a cart.
Long Qi walked to the bed, picked up Lingxiang without saying a word, and put her on the chair.
"When I was a kid, I saw people with disabilities using this thing. Although it was a bit crude, it was still usable." Long Qi frowned inadvertently: Isn't this spiritual incense a little too light...
Lingxiang was still in shock, but she heard Long Qi speak again:
"Since you're bored every day and can't walk, I made one for you. This way, you can go out and bask in the sun, which is better than lying in the house all day, right?"
As Long Qi spoke, he pushed Lingxiang out of the house.
Although she hadn't been able to go out for two or three days, Lingxiang felt as if she hadn't seen the sun for a lifetime. As soon as she arrived in the courtyard, she took a deep breath: "Ah! This is the aura of heaven and earth!"
Then she turned her head to look at Long Qi, thinking to herself: I didn't expect that Long Qi has such a considerate side, which really pleased her.
The joy of going out made Lingxiang forget everything that happened in the past few days, and she even thought of letting Long Qi enter Qingwei Peak in advance.
Long Qi felt uncomfortable being stared at, and thought with a red face: Could it be that this girl is still angry with him about what happened before?
Lingxiang pondered for a long time and shook her head: Although Long Qi told old man Shangqing that he was his disciple when he first joined the sect, if he skipped the martial arts performance, it would be illegal and he should be asked to go back early.
Thinking of this, Lingxiang said, "The third martial arts performance is almost here. You should hurry back to the outer disciples and make good preparations."
Hearing this, Long Qi thought Lingxiang was still angry, so he didn't answer. He just slowly pushed her around the yard, but his heart was filled with mixed feelings: How could this matter be resolved...
Just as Long Qi was thinking, Ling Xiang spoke again:
"When Maidong comes to change the dressing for me later, I'll ask her to train you well for me. I think she'll be happy to do that. We don't know what the Three Martial Arts Competition is yet, so it's best to prepare early. Although the elders in the sect all know that you are my disciple, you still have to go through the formalities. If you don't perform well, won't that make me lose face?"
Long Qi listened to Lingxiang's words and didn't seem to be annoyed by him. But Maidong? Could it be that her cultivation level was very high?
Thinking of this, Long Qi asked.
Lingxiang chuckled upon hearing this: "Don't look down on her. Although she is a rough and tumble person on a daily basis, if a real fight breaks out, you guys might not be her match."
"I can also practice at Xianyunju, right? If I go back to Zhuyuan, who will be able to look after you?"
"You don't have to worry about that. If you fail the three martial arts performances, you'll have to stay in the outer sect for another half a year before you can be promoted." Lingxiang said this, but she was thinking something else: I also want you to enter Qingwei Peak earlier, right? What peak master doesn't have disciples around him to command...
Long Qi looked at the blue figure walking towards him from a distance. That person looked as petite as Lingxiang. Could he really be that powerful?
Long Qi didn't know that Lingxiang hadn't said anything yet: Maidong's cultivation was the same as hers, at the third stage of foundation building, the Dan Ning stage!
