Ji Yu did endure not going to see Yaoyao for two months, but when she heard news about Yaoyao again, she was told that Yaoyao's dantian had been destroyed and she had become a disabled person.
"Junior brother, are you listening? It is said that after Junior Sister Shu was injured last time, she took medicine but it didn't get better. Later it was found that someone had added poison to the medicine." Liang Shiliu said.
Senior Sister Eighteen also said, “I don’t know who deliberately poisoned the students. The two most talented students in Qingfeng Academy died within a month.”
Ji Yu asked again: "You mean Senior Brother Haoling, what happened to him?"
Senior Sister Eighteen explained, "After the last sect competition, his cultivation dropped directly to the Nascent Soul stage. A few days ago, he went out with his fellow disciples to train, but they encountered a monster and were beaten into a fool."
"Yes, yes. Brother Haoling used to be suave, handsome and elegant, and was the best Taoist partner in the hearts of thousands of sisters. Now he has become a fool who squats under a tree and counts ants every day."
"I heard that his master was so angry that he vomited blood. He was the one who had the best chance of becoming the next successor of Qingfeng Academy, but now everything is ruined."
The two chatted enthusiastically, but Ji Yuxin felt as if she had fallen into an icy cave.
Ji Yu ran all the way to Mingxiao Palace in a hurry, and then sneaked into Yaoyao's door.
Ji Yu hid in the dark, glancing inside from time to time.
"Senior Sister Shu has become half useless. Why hasn't she left Mingxiao Palace yet? I don't know why we keep her here? Is she trying to steal our cultivation resources?"
"That's right. The master spent so many years training her, but she turned out to be a useless person. It's really disappointing. Don't you think she is too careless?"
The two of them discussed loudly at the door without restraint, as if they were afraid that the people in the room couldn't hear them.
"Get out! I will leave here when it's time to go." Yaoyao's hysterical shouting was heard from inside.
After seeing the two men leave, Ji Yu sneaked into the room like a thief.
"Get out!" Shu Yaoyao was lying on the bed with her back to the door, and she didn't notice who came in.
Ji Yu walked carefully to the bedside and touched her wrist: "Yaoyao."
"What do you want to do?" Shu Yaoyao's voice was alert, and her wrist was still struggling.
Ji Yu comforted her, "Yaoyao, don't move. I will check the condition of your Dantian. I will use all the power of the Liang family to help you heal it."
A trace of Ji Yu's spiritual power entered her Dantian, which was originally full of spiritual power, but was now broken into pieces. After being unable to store spiritual power, the spiritual power wandered around her limbs and bones.
Ji Yu looked at the dense beads of sweat on Yaoyao's face and couldn't help feeling a little distressed.
"Yaoyao, let me take you to recall Ling Palace!" Ji Yu suggested.
He needs a master to help Yaoyao recover his Dantian.
The moment someone cared about her, the tears that had been welling up in her eyes couldn't help but fall, and her heart was filled with pain.
"It can't be cured. Uncle Master said that it would take a lot of natural materials and treasures to repair it by 70%. I have finally become a waste in their eyes. I can't bring glory to the Shu family, and I don't have the ability to protect Dad and you... Don't worry about me, Ji Yu, don't worry about me."
Shu Yaoyao screamed hysterically, her broken voice mixed with despair.
She was a favored child a few months ago, but she became a waste overnight. It was normal for her to be unable to accept it.
Ji Yu held her shoulders and patted her back with his warm hands: "Yaoyao, don't cry, I'm here. Yaoyao will not become a waste. I will find all the herbs you need and help you restore your Dantian. I can also protect you and the Shu family."
"What reason do you have to protect the Shu family... You are the adopted son of the Shu family and the heir of the Liang family. Ji Yu, I told you before that you have no obligation to take care of me. Even though my father and I picked you up from the battlefield, you have never owed us anything. You don't have to tie yourself down for life because of such a small favor."
Shu Yaoyao is a very clear-headed person. She knows right from wrong, good from evil. Naturally, she also knows that repaying a favor is a despicable thing.
"Yaoyao, I am willing to do this. I am not doing this to repay you, but... because I like you. I can marry into the Shu family and become a son-in-law. Then you, daddy, and even the Shu family will all be mine."
[Ding! The target's favorability increased by 10, and the current favorability is 70. ]
Shu Yaoyao's hands, which were hanging by Ji Yu's side, suddenly took the initiative to hug him. Her murmuring voice was loud enough for Ji Yu to hear.
"Maybe if you weren't a kid anymore, I might like you."
Before her Dantian was destroyed, Shu Yaoyao's biggest dream was to practice hard, practice hard, not bring shame to her father, and work hard to support the Shu family and protect her family.
Since I can no longer practice, why not let myself go for once?
Shu Yaoyao hooked her arm around Ji Yu's neck and asked in a very serious tone, "Do you really like me? There's nothing good about me. I have a cold personality and I like to show off. They all say that female cultivators like me are the least interesting."
"I like you, I have liked you since I was a child, and I only like you. Although Yaoyao is cold, she is very kind to me. You are so stubborn, that's because you are strong and powerful. They say you are not humorous, but they are simply jealous and afraid of you because they can't beat you."
"Are you afraid of me?" Shu Yaoyao asked in a low voice.
Ji Yu slowly approached the girl's bleeding earlobe and gently bit it. The moment he let go, he gave his answer: "I'm afraid of you too, afraid that you won't want me. Besides, it's natural for a man to be afraid of his wife."
"Let me take you to recall Ling Palace!" Ji Yu said again.
"Okay..." This time Shu Yaoyao agreed.
Ji Yu simply picked her up and carried her sideways, and when he went out, he happened to meet Ming Xiao and his wife who came to deliver medicine.
Madam Ming reached out to stop the two of them: "Where are you taking her?"
Ji Yu sneered in his heart and pretended to be very concerned on his face, but what he said was "her", not "my daughter".
Ji Yu raised his eyebrows, his tone somewhat unhappy: "Since Yaoyao is injured, I will naturally take him back to recuperate!"
"We can raise her in Mingxiao Palace. After all, we are master and disciple. I will never harm her." Mingxiao explained.
Ji Yu's words were a little sarcastic: "That's not certain! It was clearly a minor injury, but how did it turn into poisoning in the end? Could it be that Elder Ming really didn't know the inside story at all?"
"How would I know?"
Looking at Mingxiao's panicked expression, Ji Yu guessed that the matter was probably related to him.
Ming Xiao looked at his lady beside him, trying to ask her to stop Ji Yu.
"You can't take her away. She is my daughter and she must stay here to recuperate." Mrs. Ming's words were somewhat forceful this time.
Ji Yu looked at the two with cold eyes, like a cold and poisonous snake. "Don't stop me. If you really dare to harm people, aren't you afraid that I will find evidence?"
