As night fell, the three of them cleaned out a yard and settled down there temporarily.
The bodies of the demon Taoist and A Lian were placed in the alchemy room. After a simple meal, Cheng Fan took out today's harvest - several storage bags and two or three magic weapons.
"This is yours, this is yours, this is mine, hiss, this demon actually has high-level spirit stones!"
Seeing the two of them looking puzzled, Cheng Fan slapped his thigh and explained with gestures how rare high-level spirit stones were in the world of immortal cultivation, and how the several magical weapons in the demon's hands were also extraordinary.
Xihe smiled quietly, watching him and Shaoheng talking about the world of cultivation in a friendly manner. He couldn't help but sigh, he didn't expect that the Demon Lord's future number one general would be of such a character.
Yes, the biggest gain for Shao Heng from this trip is gaining a loyal younger brother.
Cheng Fan's life story is not complicated. He was originally in charge of Yushan, but unfortunately he was betrayed by his best friend and became a traitor hated by everyone in the cultivation world. His cultivation level even fell to the Golden Core Stage, and he was captured by a demon and brought here to bleed every day.
After being saved by Shao Heng this time, he returned to Yushan to challenge his friend. After beating him to a pulp, he returned to Shao Heng.
From then on, he followed him, became his right-hand man, and later became the number one general!
"Miss, this is Sanqinglu, it's good for you, drink it quickly."
Xihe nodded, leaned over and drank from Shaoheng's hand. After drinking, Shaoheng helped her wipe her mouth.
The girl had skin as white as snow, clear eyes, and red and moist lips. Shao Heng couldn't help but slow down his movements until Cheng Fan couldn't hold back his cough anymore, and then he withdrew his hand with red earlobes.
Shao Heng said as he packed his things, "Miss, we will go to the Wanyao Sect tomorrow, and you will be fine soon."
He had always thought that the elixir given by the demon was useful, until just now, when Cheng Fan explained, he realized that Huiyuan Dan was just the most commonly used elixir by foundation-building cultivators.
Although it has the effect of strengthening the body and replenishing the vital energy, injuries of this degree cannot be cured by a mere mid-grade pill.
Wanyao Sect is the number one medicine sect in the world of immortal cultivation. As long as we get there, the young lady will be saved.
Xihe nodded: "Okay."
-
The next day, after burning the bodies of the demon Taoist and A Lian, the three of them went down the mountain and went straight to Wanyao Sect.
This time, Cheng Fan and Shao Heng drove the car in the front, and Xihe stayed in the back carriage. When Xihe was hungry, Shao Heng would get off to cook. After eating, they would continue on their journey and rest on the spot at night.
After traveling day and night for a month, the three of them spent the night in a dilapidated temple.
Shao Heng got out of the car to clean the dilapidated temple, while Cheng Fan flew on his sword to fetch water. At night, a bright fire was lit in the dilapidated temple, and the aroma of food filled the air.
Cheng Fan held the bowl and said impatiently: "Is it ready? I'm starving."
Shao Heng said without even looking up: "The Jindan stage has long been fasting."
Cheng Fan chuckled: "The purpose of cultivating immortality is to achieve great freedom. If you can't even satisfy your appetite, then what's the point of cultivating immortality? It's better to be a mortal!" He lifted the lid and immediately scooped up a full bowl.
"By the way, how's your training going? What's your Qi Refining level?"
"Fifth floor."
Cheng Fan was shocked. He swallowed his food and gave a thumbs up. "Amazing! He's reached the fifth level of Qi Refining in just one month. He should show those so-called chosen ones in the world of immortal cultivation who the real genius is!"
Shao Heng blew the porridge cool and fed it to Xi He, his expression indifferent: "I don't care how your cultivation goes, I just want to heal the young lady's injury."
He carefully handed the porridge to Xihe's mouth, and when he saw her swallow it, his eyes were very gentle: "Is it delicious?" Xihe nodded with a smile, and he curled the corners of his mouth and lowered his head to scoop another spoonful.
Cheng Fan shuddered at the cheesiness, and he even wanted to feed the baby with his own hands. He had never seen such a clingy person!
After going through this journey, he finally realized how much Shao Heng doted on his eldest daughter. It was obvious that only her right hand was injured, but she was treated as if she was paralyzed. She had to be fed and carried when she got out of the car. Whenever Hua Chang frowned, Shao Heng would be nervous for a long time.
Even though she was in so much pain, her mind and eyes were full of Hua Shang. When he asked her, she still insisted that she was just the eldest lady.
At night, Xihe lay on the tidy bed, covered with a brocade quilt that exuded a faint fragrance, while Shaoheng and the other person sat cross-legged on the cushion and meditated.
The night wind was howling outside the house, and the humming sound was audible. Xihe slept a little uneasily. He felt something approaching and suddenly opened his eyes. At the same time, he shouted "Stop!" and Shaoheng almost attacked the invader together with Cheng Fan!
The dilapidated temple was dark, and only three dark figures could be seen fighting in a group. One of them was particularly strange. After discovering that Cheng Fan was difficult to deal with, he immediately attacked Shao Heng.
Xihe's heartbeat almost reached his throat, but the next second, the ghostly shadow screamed and disappeared.
Xihe: ???
Cheng Fan: ???
Shaoheng: ...
After lighting the lamp, the three of them searched around but still couldn't find where the shadow had gone.
Suddenly, Shao Heng remembered something, turned his wrist and took out a pitch-black bead, which was now extremely dark.
Cheng Fan was confused: "What is this?"
Shao Heng stared at it for a moment, then retracted it: "Nothing."
Cheng Fan: ...Do you think I believe it?
Shao Heng walked towards Xi He and helped her lie down. "I'll keep watch. You can sleep peacefully, young lady. We will arrive at Tianzhu City tomorrow."
Xihe nodded and lay down, and soon fell asleep. Cheng Fan was speechless when he saw this. He was so brave that he could still sleep after such a thing happened!
Nothing happened that night. The next day, after getting up and eating, the three of them continued their journey and entered Tianzhu City.
Tianzhu City belongs to the Wanjian Sect. They are going to take the teleportation array here to go to the Wanyao Sect market, but they are not in a hurry to leave. They went into an inn to rest for a while.
"Miss, are you tired? I'll ask the waiter to serve the food later. You can have a good rest after eating."
"Okay. You're tired from driving, so you need to rest."
Cheng Fan came over, and the three of them, led by the waiter, went to the second floor.
Cheng Fan told them the news as they walked: "I heard there's an auction tonight. Let's go and see if we can buy something good..."
Several monks came down from the upstairs. The three of them made way for them. As they passed each other:
"Young friend?"
The monk walking behind suddenly stopped and exclaimed in surprise.
The three of them were stunned and turned to look at the Jindan cultivator. The cultivator stepped forward, looked at Xihe carefully, and smiled: "Young friend Huachang, it really is you!"
"It's been so long since we last met. Is Master Hua doing well? And...why are you here?"
She looked at the three people with doubt. Seeing that she was dressed simply with only a pearl hairpin on her head, and there were two men beside her, especially Cheng Fan who was actually a Golden Core cultivator, she became more and more surprised and confused.
Cheng Fan was also confused. Hua Chang also knew a Jindan cultivator?
When Shaoheng heard the name of Mr. Hua, he felt relieved, knowing that this man must be an old acquaintance of the Hua family.
Xihe was startled. He had never expected to see the cultivator who had treated the original owner back then! It was he who had told the original owner how to seize Shao Heng's body.
She tried to remain calm and knelt down to salute: "My daughter greets Master He. I hope you are well."
Speaking of Master Hua, his face darkened. "After parting with the Immortal, we lived peacefully in the mansion for a few years. Unexpectedly, a few months later, we were suddenly attacked by thieves. My daughter was able to escape because she was away."
Master He was horrified. "How could this happen? Do you know who did this? And Young Friend Hua Shang... can you find a cure for your illness?"
