The woman looked to be in her twenties and had a beautiful face. Li Yirou observed her for a moment and was sure that she did not know this person!
The original owner didn't remember this person either. Could he be a relative?! This made Li Yirou a little excited, but at the same time, being called by her real name made her nervous and worried.
Because the other party's cultivation is higher than hers.
"I, Si Xu! Yijian Sect! Do you still remember me?" Li Yirou was surprised. "Si Xu?"
Isn’t Si Xu a little girl?! Li Yirou didn’t think she was meeting a relative, and her excitement subsided.
"It's me. I put on some disguises and wanted to go to the Western Territory to find something. Unfortunately, I didn't find it." Si Xu wanted to reach out and pull her, but Li Yirou shrank back and dodged. "Sorry, I, I don't want anyone to touch me."
A glint of pity flashed across Si Xu's eyes. She also thought Han Yu was a pervert, having taken a fancy to the young girl Li Yirou. That's why he was making such a crazy move, trying to trap her in the sect.
Li Yirou had sequelae, and was afraid of being approached by others. Fortunately, she had finally made it through and came to the relatively safe Wuji City. Si Xu was happy for her.
"You forgot, when you took out the black Ganoderma lucidum, I told you not to give it to him!" Si Xu recounted what happened in the past to prove that he was the Taoist elder Si Xu of the Yijian Sect.
The streets were crowded, making it difficult for them to talk. Si Xu extended his hand, pointed in a direction, and invited Li Yirou into a herbal medicine shop. "Grandma Shi, can I have a few words with you?"
After she finished speaking, she set up an isolation formation. Li Yirou felt relieved and her eyes fell on the middle-aged woman behind the counter. She looked very ordinary and energetic, just an ordinary shop owner.
It was hard for anyone to imagine that she was a Gu maker.
Great, Shi Yue! I finally lived up to your expectations!
The golden light of merit could indeed improve her luck and enable her to accomplish the things she wanted to accomplish one by one.
"I didn't expect you to come here! You have no idea how excited I was when I learned you had successfully escaped!" Li Yirou smiled, happy for herself. Si Xu really didn't look like a mature woman; she still had the mentality of a child.
Then she talked about what happened after Li Yiru left. Basically, Han Yuzhen mobilized the sect's power to find her, which made all the outer disciples disgusted. When she talked about what happened later, she became even more excited.
"A skinny man came to tip me off, saying he might have seen you. I was about to send him away!" Li Yirou heard this and recalled the cultivator who had escaped using the earth escape talisman. Then Si Xu continued, "But then that Lin Chunfang..."
At this point, Si Xu subconsciously observed her expression. After all, Li Yirou and Lin Chunfang were closer. But Si Xu didn't like her very much. They seemed to have a conflicting aura. Si Xu felt troubled by her awkward look.
She only coughed lightly and said, "She pulled that man and asked anxiously if she had found you. She wanted to take him to see Han Yuzhen. I killed him secretly in a hurry."
"Thank you!" Li Yiru didn't expect there was this layer. It turned out that she was able to escape successfully thanks to Si Xu's help behind the scenes.
"It's okay. I've wanted to help you for a long time, but my cultivation isn't as good as Han Yuzhen's, so I..." Si Xu felt a little embarrassed, but Li Yirou understood very well. It wasn't her fault. Who would risk themselves to help someone they didn't know very well?
Even if you are a good friend, you still need to think carefully about doing things that harm yourself.
"I didn't expect this to happen. Thank you very much, Sister Si Xu." Li Yirou smiled. "I wonder what you are looking for. If I find it, I can let you know."
Si Xu hesitated to speak, perhaps referring to some secret, so Li Yirou quickly changed the subject, "If you need any help, you can also come to me."
Li Yirou handed her an ordinary communication talisman, but this kind of talisman was slow in transmitting messages.
She sincerely hoped to repay Si Xu, but after she handed over the communication talisman, she realized that she was used to disguising her cultivation level. As a cultivator at the sixth level of Qi Refining, what help could she give to a cultivator at the Foundation Establishment stage?
But Si Xu knew her past, and he didn't want her to find out that her cultivation had improved so quickly, so it could be considered a blessing in disguise.
Si Xu took it and said, "I have something to do recently, so I will be leaving Wuji City soon. Don't worry, Han Yuzhen's life span is coming to an end, and he won't live long. In a year at most, you can rest assured."
After saying that, she put away the communication talisman and said, "I don't need any help. We can talk when we have a chance." She was very curious about how little Li Yirou had managed to escape successfully.
"Of course, Sister Si Xu, you have a bright future ahead of you, and I wish you a smooth journey!" Li Yirou wished sincerely.
Si Xu also gave her an ordinary communication talisman, "I'll give you my good wishes! Goodbye!" Then she left in a hurry.
After she left, Li Yirou returned to the herbal medicine shop. The middle-aged woman surnamed Shi had no spiritual power at all, and Li Yirou could only occasionally sense a little bit of weak spiritual power circulating around her, which could easily be misunderstood as being contained in the herbs.
There should be no mistake. Li Yiru stood in front of her. Granny Shi was still smiling, but her hands stopped sorting the herbs.
Seeing her set up the formation, Granny Shi became visibly nervous, preparing something in her hand. It turned out that as one's cultivation level improved, one could detect poisonous insects.
"I wonder if you know someone named Shi Yue." Li Yiru was afraid that she would use a poisonous insect on her, so she hurriedly said Shi Yue's name.
Granny Shi's pupils trembled slightly, obviously recognizing Shi Yue. "Child, who are you talking about?"
Li Yirou explained to her the whole story, saying that Shi Yue accidentally drifted to the Western Realm and was very lonely without any fellow tribesmen. She had many problems in her life and cultivation.
"Thank you, child!" Granny Shi obviously knew Shi Yue. She took back the insect and excitedly invited her to sit down. Li Yirou shook her head and said, "No need. I've already conveyed your message and kept my promise. I won't bother you any more."
"Child, anyone who has helped our people must not return empty-handed. We will give you whatever you want!" Granny Shi introduced several kinds of poisonous insects, and Li Yiru suddenly remembered the explosive spirit poison that Si Xu had just mentioned.
After she finished speaking, Granny Shi's expression became more serious. "The Explosive Spirit Gu can increase your cultivation by several levels in a short period of time, but it goes against the will of heaven and is extremely harmful to the person. It will also cause your cultivation to decline after use. Child, don't..."
"Then please give this to me, Granny Shi, or you can sell it to me." Granny Shi looked at her well-behaved and pretty face, and didn't understand why they all wanted this kind of heaven-defying poisonous insect.
But her eyes were too determined. She knew that the child would not want anything else except this.
"Well, since you insist..." Granny Shi handed her a small porcelain bottle. "As long as you take this insect cocoon, your cultivation will explode within ten breaths, and it will last for half an hour at most. But in such a short time, the damage will be extremely great, and it will also cause great damage to your organs. Don't use it lightly!"
"The Explosive Spirit Gu is too damaging. It can only be used once in a lifetime! Remember this!"
