He took care of Li Yiru alone for two days, and then Xuan Wu and Si Xu came back. The three of them took turns to look after her, which made her somewhat moved, but she had to bury her grief deep in her heart.
The same went for Duobao, Taxue and the others, who meowed, squeaked and hissed, transforming from aloof spiritual beasts into chatterboxes.
The strange fire was translating for her all the time. She was surrounded in all directions, but she remained silent amid the noise.
She rebuilt Ji Shiyan's broken spiritual platform bit by bit, and the golden spiritual sword was finally formed, which finally made her smile for the first time in a long time.
But in an instant, the sword body was like broken glass, and it scattered all over the spiritual platform with a crash.
Li Yirou wanted to start over again, but Si Xu came in with the boiled medicine, "Yiro, drink the medicine."
She was like a puppet at the mercy of others. She drank it all in one gulp but refused to say anything to them.
Xuan Wu's potion had a slightly stronger calming effect, otherwise she wouldn't rest. After drinking the medicine, Li Yirou's eyelids quickly grew heavy, and just as she was putting the sword back together, she fell asleep again.
There seemed to be a spirit in the dream, responding to her gently.
But after waking up, his spiritual realm was still in ruins.
Li Yiru used her spiritual consciousness to gently touch Ji Shiyan's spiritual platform. The hilt of the sword did not break like the sword body, which gave her a little hope.
"Are you feeling better?" She was about to continue, but the person sitting opposite her had turned into Luo Hanchu again.
Seeing that she was in a daze as soon as she woke up, I chatted with her and tried to get her to speak.
Li Yiru hasn't used her spiritual power for a month, and her wounds have healed, and her dantian has recovered halfway. However, she has used her spiritual consciousness too much, so the recovery is slow.
The company of these three people and the spiritual creature dispelled her urge to die with Ji Shiyan and transformed it into an obsession to save him.
It would be fine if she was depressed by herself, but she also dragged others along. Just as she was about to tell Luo Hanchu and the others not to worry and stop watching over her, she suddenly received a communication talisman.
[By chance, we have been reunited as a master and disciple. The apprenticeship ceremony will take place in seven days. Xiaoye, are you feeling better? I hope you'll return soon. —Master Tiancun]
Taking on another disciple? Previously, she had said she only wanted Situ Chuan and herself. How unpredictable things really are...
She should go back and practice hard. Death is a helpless escape, she must find a way.
[Are you feeling better? I'll pick you up.] Received another message, probably from Situ Chuan, followed by a second message, [Situ Chuan.]
…
Li Yirou wondered how he could have made such a small mistake, forgetting even to leave his name. It seemed his master was planning to take on another disciple, which would have a significant impact on him.
She first replied to him that there was no need to bother, she would be back tomorrow, and then told her master that she would be back soon.
As a result, after a while, Situ Chuan knocked on the door of Luo Hanchu's courtyard.
Seeing his worried expression, Li Yirou just said that she looked much better and fell silent.
"Master's new disciple is difficult to get along with?" He came from afar and avoided Wuji Palace. There was no other possibility except that he wanted to take him in as a disciple.
Situ Chuan thought she did understand him somewhat, but after a faint smile, a hint of worry came over him.
"She's an old acquaintance of yours." Situ Chuan suddenly said. Seeing her bewildered face, he softly said the name, "Li Xifeng."
"Xifeng?!" Li Yirou rarely lost her composure. She was truly shocked and surprised. "Was she chosen by the mortal world to be a disciple of Wuji Palace? Does she also have a single wood spiritual root?"
Situ Chuan had been very curious about Li Yiru's affairs before, and had deliberately collected some information about her, including a small part about Li Xifeng.
"No, it's the Five Chaos Spiritual Roots." He frowned, "We at Wuji Palace don't go out of our way to recruit disciples from the mortal world."
His fingertips circled the rim of the teacup boredly. "Master has given her the Taoist name, Tianxi."
You know, the master didn't give either of them a name.
Li Yiru didn't care, but her senior brother obviously cared about it. After all, this represented special treatment that the master had never received before.
Moreover, this name has the same character as her master's, as if it represents all her hopes.
Li Yiru was of average talent and posed no real threat to him, but this newcomer was different.
He didn't know who to confide these awkward emotions to, so after his master decided to accept him as a disciple, he hurried over and wanted to see her.
Situ Chuan's gaze and thoughts were already scattered, leaving him with many doubts. He started discussing with her, "Tell me...how could someone be able to establish a foundation after only one year of practice?"
Or someone gave up all his or her own cultivation and transferred spiritual power to her, sorting out the meridians and dantian bit by bit to help her improve quickly.
This kind of heaven-defying method can only be performed by a cultivator at least in the Nascent Soul stage. Who would give up everything they have and choose to help someone who did not embark on the path to immortality until the age of 20?
"She has already established her foundation?" Seeing Situ Chuan nod, Li Yirou found it even more incredible.
Recalling her return to Linxian Village more than a year ago, she could confirm that Xifeng was indeed a mortal with an unopened Dantian and no spiritual power.
Could it be that he also entered a secret realm and got trapped?
She had guessed right about the Linxian Village incident. Was it Xifeng who did it?
Li Yirou couldn't help but recall the scorched village. She had even burned her own child to death. Could someone else have forced her to do this?
She couldn't guess, but at this moment she made up her mind not to recognize Xifeng rashly.
Her sudden appearance, coupled with a series of abnormalities, was very strange.
Li Yiru recalled what happened that day. After injecting spiritual power into Xifeng, she didn't say a word to her.
She didn't say goodbye or express her reluctance when she left, which was very unlike her.
Li Yirou thought that Xifeng was sad and angry because she threatened Sun Yu.
She therefore felt that she had nothing more to say to Xifeng, and after repaying her favor, she couldn't wait to leave.
Looking back now, she was a little abnormal at that time.
Li Yiru brutally killed Li Chang's family of three, and Xifeng still had the guts to come over and talk to her.
However, whatever hidden secrets there were, they were the Master's business for the time being, and she had no need to get involved. It was just...
"Brother, is it because of the cultivation of the Chaos Spiritual Root that the speed is so terrifying?" If this is true, she must find a way to continue to restore the spiritual root.
Situ Chuan suddenly looked a bit more relaxed, probably laughing at her lack of common sense. "Generally speaking, the cultivation of Chaos Spiritual Roots is very slow at first, and then it will become faster later. Unless..."
When he said this, he suddenly stopped, probably because he felt that it was outrageous and he shouldn't say it.
But it seemed that after seeing her and seeing that she was no longer desperate for Ji Shiyan, he felt a little better.
I heard from Si Xu that she hadn't spoken for a month, but unexpectedly, because of her master and that Li Xifeng, she opened up again.
So Situ Chuan chose to continue chatting with her. As long as she was interested, he could repeat it even if it was some common sense that even children should know.
