Chapter 435 Disappointment
Wu Lingxue thought that she and Zhong Yuyuan were both highly valued by the sect master. Before the sect master went into seclusion, he specifically asked them to help teach Xing Ci and handle the affairs of the sect. The other brothers and sisters were naturally not as good as her and Zhong Yuyuan.
What's more, because she was so capable and had been in charge of the Sect Affairs Hall for many years with almost no mistakes, Zhong Yuyuan had to consult her as his senior sister on many matters.
She really couldn't believe that the Sect Master was not in seclusion, but kept her in the dark and told Junior Brother Zhong privately. Junior Brother Zhong also kept the matter a secret, making her believe that the Sect Master was really in seclusion.
She was speechless for a long while.
"You don't believe what I said?" Zhou Xunmo looked at her.
Wu Lingxue shook her head. "I'm not disbelieving it, Senior Brother Zhou. You're not the kind of person who would make unfounded statements. You said you intercepted Junior Brother Zhong's message to the Sect Master, so you must have intercepted it."
"Well, Junior Brother Zhong asked the Sect Master when he would return to the Sect. All the people in the Qishan Secret Realm have been rescued. Can the Sect Master find out anything?" Zhou Xunmo said.
"How do you respond, lord?"
“No.”
Wu Lingxue asked: "Anything else?"
"there is none left."
Wu Lingxue looked at him, "Brother Zhou, if not, you wouldn't be able to leave Taiyi at this time."
Zhou Xunmo sighed, "Why didn't I notice your temper before? Why did you insist on asking clearly?"
He could only say again: "Well, the monsters attacked the mountain, and Uncle Master Wen and Xing Ci did not come out of the sword tomb."
Wu Lingxue said: "Xing Ci's cultivation has entered a critical period recently. He is about to break through."
Zhou Xunmo mocked, "What about Grandmaster Wen? In his eyes, the death of a few disciples is nothing. He is the ancestor. If he is in seclusion, it's fine. Like several ancestors of Qingxu, they closed their five senses and didn't come out even if the sky fell. That's understandable. But what about Wen Subai? Is he him? Nephew Jiang was slacking off and he was blown out. Hundreds of Taiyi disciples died and were injured, but he stayed in the sword tomb and only cared about the breakthrough of one disciple. What if he breaks through a few days later? You and I are both cultivators. We should know that it won't have any impact if we suppress our cultivation for the time being and break through later."
Wu Lingxue remained silent.
Zhou Xunmo rarely had such a long conversation, so he fell silent.
The magic weapon flew slowly, very quietly and smoothly. Clouds slid by, and mountains and rivers passed by under its feet.
Because the two were talking, no one noticed that as the clouds flew by, less than ten meters away, several magical weapons that were completely black, with wings on both sides and pointed heads, similar to flying birds, also passed by them quickly without noticing the magical weapons they were riding.
If she had not been seriously injured, Wu Lingxue would have been able to sense it, but she was seriously injured and her soul palace collapsed. Zhou Xunmo, on the other hand, was like an ordinary person, his five senses were no longer sharp, his cultivation was completely wasted, and his soul palace was destroyed.
The magic weapon that passed by them did not discover them. It was naturally because Zhou Xunmo pasted an invisibility talisman on the magic weapon after leaving Taiyi. He did not expect that it was still effective after three days.
"So, Senior Brother Zhou is disappointed with the sect? That's why you took me to Qingxu?" Wu Lingxue asked.
"I guess so!" Zhou Xunmo said, "Part of the reason is that I don't want you to endure the pain for a month. If we get to Qingxu earlier, you can detoxify earlier. As for your injuries, you can take your time to recover."
Wu Lingxue looked at him and said, "Brother Zhou, if you take care of me closely, you will also be infected with the poison."
"It's okay. Nephew Jiang has the antidote anyway." Zhou Xunmo held her hand. "Don't think too much. You have worked hard for the sect for many years, and the sect is not your responsibility alone. Besides, are you willing to work hard without being trusted?"
Wu Lingxue closed her eyes, feeling a little uncomfortable, "I don't want to."
She really never thought that the Sect Master would hide the secret from her, but told Junior Brother Zhong, and Junior Brother Zhong also kept it a secret from her. For so long, she did not have the slightest doubt that Junior Brother Zhong would keep the secret from her without any leaks when the Sect Master was not in the Sect.
She said, "Xing Ci should know this too, right?"
"He is the sect master's personal disciple. Do you think he knows?"
Wu Lingxue stopped talking.
Zhou Xunmo seemed tired as well, so he lay down beside her.
When Chen Liuan learned that Uncle Zhou had taken Uncle Wu away to Qingxu, he beat his chest and stamped his feet. If he had known earlier, he would have gone with them. He wanted to see how Sister Jiang made the elixir, and he also wanted to get rid of the poison as soon as possible, and he also wanted Sister Jiang's talisman.
He went to find Zhong Yuyuan, "Uncle Zhong, when you go to Qingxu to get the elixir, can you let me go with you?"
Zhong Yuyuan knew her friendship with Jiang Lisheng and did not object, "Okay, go if you want."
Chen Liuan sent a message to Jiang Lisheng, "Junior Sister Jiang, have you started refining the elixir now?"
Jiang Lisheng didn't reply to him. She was indeed busy now.
Uncle Wan didn't like her not concentrating on making the elixir, so she was restrained and followed his rules. She made the elixir for ten consecutive days.
Furnace after furnace of pills came out. By the eleventh day, Jiang Lisheng was so sleepy that he could not open his eyes. He leaned his head on Wei Qinglan's shoulder and fell asleep.
When Wan Changqing took out a furnace of elixirs, he found that Jiang Lisheng had fallen asleep. He asked Wei Qinglan, "How long has she been sleeping?"
Wei Qinglan said: "When you just refined this batch of pills."
Wan Changqing was stunned, "So what I am doing is..." He looked at the ten pills he had refined and was speechless for a moment.
Wei Qinglan nodded affirmatively, "You made the elixir to cure the poison yourself. I couldn't bear to wake her up."
Wan Changqing: "..."
So, he should thank her for falling asleep, and also thank him for not wanting to wake her up.
He put away the pills and said to Wei Qinglan, "Send her back to sleep. It's not easy for her to hold out for so many days. I'll take a pill and find a disciple to try. If the pills I've refined can also detoxify, let her have a good rest. There's no need for her to come. Leave the rest to me."
Wei Qinglan nodded, picked up Jiang Lisheng, and flew out of Yaofeng on his sword.
Chu Bitumen had been guarding outside for as many days as the pills had been refined inside. Now that Wei Qinglan was holding Jiang Lisheng out, he asked, "Is the refining done?"
Wei Qinglan shook her head. "No, I'll have to trouble Uncle Chu to keep watching until Uncle Wan comes out. Junior Sister Jiang is so tired that she has fallen asleep. I'll take Junior Sister Jiang back first."
Chu Bitumen nodded, "Okay."
During these ten days in Qingxu, everything was still very peaceful, and the disciples continued their daily practice and life. In the main peak, Yu Wuchen was still lazy, lying or sprawled out like a boneless person. Qin Fengxing practiced every day, and the two of them rarely quarreled.
Wei Qinglan carried Jiang Lisheng back to the main peak. Yu Wuchen took a look with his spiritual sense, then squinted his eyes and rested. Qin Fengxing sighed, thinking that the little girl had been refining the elixir for a few days, and his apprentice had been accompanying her for a few days. If this continued, he would neglect his own cultivation. As far as he knew, such a big thing happened in Taiyi, and Wen Subai and Ye Xingci had not come out of Taiyi.
