Chapter 31: Thirty-first Night
If you don't obey and something happens, I may not be able to save you again.
Wu Yan was startled by the sight of Yun Wanwan just returning.
In fact, Wu Yan could probably guess that the reason why Anluoke became like that and Yun Wanwan had to leave here was that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince must have been seriously injured. Therefore, Wu Yan thought it was normal for Yun Wanwan not to come back for a day or two.
But when he saw Yun Wanwan, whose face was pale and so weak that she looked like she would faint at any moment, Wu Yan felt a panic in his heart that even he himself did not expect.
"What's going on?"
Yun Wanwan didn't even have the energy to care about Wu Yan. She had been carried back the last stretch purely by the devil vine. Lying on Manman, she finally relaxed. Facing Wu Yan's confused, worried, and somewhat amused look, she managed to explain, "I'm hungry."
Then he looked up at Wu Yan and asked, "Do I still have my food reserves?"
Because of Anlock's hard work, a lot of mutant beast meat was hunted, which was more than she could eat even if she ate it every meal. After the devil vines got used to the food cooked by Yun Wanwan, they were no longer interested in this kind of raw food. Therefore, there was a lot of beast meat left. Yun Wanwan spent some time making a lot of food reserves, such as dried meat. She relied on these foods to survive during her seclusion in the yard.
But after being away for two days, Wu Yan wouldn’t have eaten up all the dried meat he had left, right?
Considering Wu Yan's personality and his appetite, it is not impossible.
Wu Yan thought: Is this the image of him in Yun Wanwan's mind?
Forget it. Seeing that she is so weak, I won’t bother with her.
"Jerky is tough, I'll go boil some water."
Although I don’t have any talent in cooking, it’s still no problem to just boil some water and put the dried meat in to cook. If possible, you can also add some small mushrooms or something, and it will be a pot of delicious mushroom soup.
After being tortured by nutrient solution for so many years, Wu Yan actually doesn’t have high requirements for taste, and he feels that he is still easy to satisfy.
Seeing Yun Wanwan finally regaining some color after drinking a bowl of broth and grinding her teeth with dried meat, and looking less scary than before, Wu Yan breathed a sigh of relief.
"What's wrong with you? You got yourself into this state just by going out?"
Yun Wanwan raised her eyelids and glanced at Anlock who was fiddling with the intelligent computer not far away. Even if this guy followed along, he probably couldn't be completely trusted. He was probably still confirming the condition of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, right?
After taking a sip of soup slowly, Yun Wanwan finally said, "What's the matter? It's just a little bit weak...I shouldn't have that problem again in the future."
Shi Kane's situation was indeed urgent at that time. If it was any later, the abyss-like storm in his sea of consciousness would take shape, and it would only be a matter of time before it devoured his mental power. She used all her strength but only pressed the pause button on the storm.
Although everything seems calm on the surface, it could erupt at any time and can only be suppressed by her at regular intervals. By this calculation, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, who cannot easily use his mental power, is almost a useless person before he is completely cured.
Yun Wanwan explained all this to Shi Kaien, and Shi Kaien accepted it well.
As for the subsequent treatment, if she wanted to cure it completely, she calculated Kane's injuries and her own strength. To be on the safe side, she probably had to wait until she reached the Golden Core stage. However, she was only at the fourth level of Qi Refining, and there was still the Foundation Establishment stage in between...
Yun Wanwan confessed to the reality of her lack of strength, and Shi Kane expressed his understanding. If Yun Wanwan really cured his injuries completely right away, Shi Kane felt that it would be difficult for him to control his mentality.
As for the estimation of her strength, because of the special nature of her mental power and spiritual power, she is able to heal mental damage like Kane's. Only a Jindan stage physique can barely withstand her powerful mental power.
According to the classification of this world, her mental strength is conservatively above 3S, which is completely overwhelming. This small body cannot bear it at all.
Shi Kane's mental strength is S+. She must at least strengthen her physique to S level and exert her mental strength to SS to completely heal Shi Kane's mental damage.
In the last world, with her incredible talent and the right environment, it took her nearly thirty years to advance from the Qi Refining Stage to the Golden Core Stage. In this world, it might take a hundred or eighty years—she felt anxious for Shi Kane.
In the end, the Crown Prince smiled calmly and said, "It's okay, as long as there is hope."
What hope? By the time he is cured, he will be a centenarian.
Forget it, I'd better try harder on my own.
Yun Wanwan opened her mouth and said, "I guess I'll have to go into seclusion for a while longer."
"Um?"
"What?"
Yun Wanwan heard a heavy sound, and Wu Yan and An Luoke expressed their great doubts about Yun Wanwan's "retreat" in unison.
An Luoke was even more blunt and said, "Miss Yun, you can't go into seclusion anymore! Since you said you wanted to go into seclusion, we have been worried all day long, and now something happened..." He didn't hesitate to say directly that he felt completely insecure without Yun Wanwan.
"Your Highness still needs you!"
Yun Wanwan stared at the sky above. She wondered if it was her imagination, but the fragments of sky she had previously only been able to see through the gaps between the branches now seemed to have widened. The courtyard seemed to have expanded, too. Had the devil vines forced the other trees outward during her retreat?
"Don't worry, I'm not in seclusion. You can find me immediately if anything happens. Just don't bother me if there's nothing wrong."
Wu Yan and An Luoke both understood what Yun Wanwan meant. She was going to go into seclusion, and the days when she could have delicious food every day at her leisure were gone forever.
Anluo was fine, but Wu Yan immediately felt that he was being targeted. He ran so far and took such a big risk just for a bite to eat, but Yun Wanwan went into seclusion just a few days after arriving. Now he was picked up by Shi Kane as soon as he came out, and he wanted to go into seclusion again after coming back?
Yun Wanwan smiled and said, "Locke, have the people over there keep an eye on your Crown Prince. He'd better behave himself. I can treat him once a week to stabilize his injuries. If he doesn't obey and something happens, I may not be able to save him again."
Anluoke was sweating profusely: "Definitely..."
"Let's see how it goes for a month or two. Once it stabilizes, we can slowly adjust it to once every three to five months or six months. Then, your Crown Prince won't have to stay on this garbage planet anymore."
Therefore, Shi Kane had to stay here until he stabilized, for fear that his injury would worsen again after he left, and no Yun Wanwan would be able to save him.
Anluoke was having a headache. Yun Wanwan's intention was clear: she wouldn't leave with them, but he didn't understand why Yun Wanwan insisted on staying here. Wouldn't it be nice to be with the Dandelion Legion? His Royal Highness the Crown Prince could provide for all of Yun Wanwan's needs. What was so special about this junk planet? Wasn't Yun Wanwan the most special person?
"I see……"
As for Wu Yan.
"Wu Yan, you might consider having a good talk with Anluo."
"Um?"
"He's quite talented in cooking. At least it's much better than your boiling meat."
Wu Yan: “…”
Anluoke was confused:???
Even if Anlok was talented in disaster relief cooking, Wu Yan, as the leader of the Star Pirates, would never go up to Anlok and ask for food. Of course, even if he was willing, Anlok would not be happy!
This is an unsolvable problem.
Wu Yan could only look at Yun Wanwan pitifully, "Wanwan, it's not good for you to be in seclusion like this. You should still eat well, right? I prepare the ingredients for you every day. You just need to take the time to prepare a meal, just one meal."
At worst, you can cook a little more for one meal and eat it for the whole day.
"Okay, Wanwan~ You know I'm busy preparing things now. And those dried meats, I see you don't have much left, I can take care of this!"
Although he has no talent in cooking, Wu Yan is very good at preparing ingredients and packing things. Moreover, as long as Yun Wanwan cooks the dried meat, the subsequent work of drying and sorting can be left to Wu Yan.
Not to mention that these prey were hunted by Wu Yan.
"Not impossible." In fact, it wouldn't delay anything. "Just clean it up and put it in the yard every day. I'll do it. But," Yun Wanwan glanced at Wu Yan, "I'm talking about you. Don't bother me."
He always tried to make his presence felt with a look of grievance on his face, and strolled around within her field of vision from time to time.
"I told you to line up, you're still early! Study your ancient star language well."
Wu Yan didn't care whether the smile on his face matched his pretty face or not. He approached Yun Wanwan, completely ignoring her dislike for him and said, "Wanwan, ancient star texts aren't that easy to learn. Look, Anluoke is at a loss right now. I can easily get in line, but you're pushing back the lessons you promised us? Shi Kaien cut in line this time because he was injured, so that's fine. Aren't you being too nice to him?"
He'll be jealous too!
"Shouldn't we be nicer to His Royal Highness? Everything you eat and use now, everything you see, most of the modern supplies were provided by His Royal Highness. Even the nutrient solution and healing potions you reluctantly used before were provided by His Royal Highness. Have you forgotten?"
Wu Yan touched his nose and stopped talking. If you are grateful for what you have received, you will be reluctant to return it. Doesn't this mean you have lost your aura?
At this point, he should have turned around and said he would never eat it again, but was he the kind of person who would let this happen to him? Of course not.
If possible, he would eat the Crown Prince out of his money.
"Okay, okay, let's not talk about that anymore. Otherwise, before you go into seclusion, why don't you explain to us what this article actually means?"
Wu Yan quickly changed the subject.
Yun Wanwan thought that this was fine. If she started practicing formally and worked hard, these two people probably wouldn’t have time to come to her again.
The article was only a few hundred words long, but it was the basic method she had learned in her previous life as an immortal in the world of cultivation, to draw Qi into her body. She used the formula to feel the Qi of heaven and earth, open up the meridians in her body, and achieve the effect of drawing Qi into her body and tempering herself.
After Yun Wanwan's explanation, Wu Yan and An Luoke had the same puzzled look on their faces.
Wu Yan fell into deep thought, while Anluo Luo directly asked, "The Qi of Heaven and Earth, Miss Yun, are you referring to the elemental power in the air?"
Yun Wanwan raised her eyebrows, not expecting Anluo to be so understanding.
This is certainly not a surprise. Long ago, when humans first evolved spiritual power, it was already inseparable from elemental power. However, as pollution intensified, elemental power and pollution became entangled, which in turn restricted the development of spiritual power.
"You could say that." After all, the essence of power is the same; it's just called differently. "So, are you scared?"
According to Yun Wanwan, this so-called practice is to open all the acupoints in the body to sense the elemental power in the air, and then introduce it into the body to transform oneself and gain strength.
Of course he was afraid. In Anlock's eyes, this behavior was almost like suicide.
Wu Yan grasped another key point. "So, Wanwan's cultivation method, um, it's called a method, right? Can it help us distinguish between pollution and elemental power?"
"able."
Yun Wanwan's resolute response seemed to carry a deafening force, shocking Wu Yan's head a little dizzy. A pure light condensed from Yun Wanwan's fingertips, gleaming like a star in the darkness. In the eyes of Wu Yan and Anluo, it was filled with temptation and hope.
"I chose you because I think you have some understanding and talent. Of course, it's not too late for you to refuse now. After all..."
After all, they were the ones who needed her help.
"By the way, if you decide to give it a try, remember to work harder and don't be outdone by Manman."
The devil vine that was also in seclusion with her has already broken through its initial boundaries. Putting aside the limited name given to it by this world, to Yun Wanwan, it can already be called a spiritual plant!
Under the surprised gazes of Wu Yan and Anluo, the devil vine, which had been watching quietly, shook its branches obediently.
Manman: I’m still the best!
