"!!!" Qin Shu's breathing stagnated and she looked at Qin Baixuan in disbelief.
She opened her mouth and laughed dryly: "You are such a joker!"
Not to mention, Qin Baixuan might not be her second cousin who died early.
Even if he is really my second cousin, Qin Shu and Qin Hairui are several years apart in age, so it is impossible that they have the same father.
Qin Baixuan looked at Qin Shu's delicate and beautiful face, which was similar to his wife's, and a hint of loneliness flashed in his eyes.
His lips trembled slightly: "Ah Shu, I am..."
"Now is not the time to reminisce about the past. If we don't hurry up, Xie Lanzhi will really die!"
When Qin Baixuan wanted to say something, Wuweizi interrupted them.
He waved his sleeves and Xie Lanzhi's body was released.
"Brother Lan!"
Qin Shu glanced over and staggered forward.
She knelt on the ground and touched Xie Lanzhi's breath with her hand, and found that he still had no breath.
"Grandpa! Wasn't the body burned? Why is it still here with you?"
Wu Weizi curled his lips and said, "If I don't do this, how can I hide the truth from the Heavenly Dao? The moment Xie Lanzhi's identity truly disappears, he will completely become a person from the outside world, and only then can he go to the world of cultivation with us."
He walked forward and pulled out the chain of the dragon-patterned compass from the back of Qin Shu's collar.
"Ah Shu, Lan Zhi is your man, and you will be in charge of his body from now on."
Qin Shu stared at the space ring on her grandfather's hand: "I don't have a space ring, Grandpa, will you give me one?"
She had seen her grandfather use this thing many times and had always envied it.
Wu Weizi chuckled and said, "The space ring is nothing. The ancestral compass on you is the real treasure."
Qin Shu took off the dragon-patterned compass and found that its color had become much dimmer: "Strange, it looked new before."
Wuweizi held one of Qin Shu's hands, and a wind blade shot out from his fingertips, and blood oozed out of Qin Shu's fingertips.
"Hiss, it hurts!" Qin Shu frowned slightly.
Wuweizi's face was full of tension and worry. When he saw only a few drops of blood coming out of Qin Shu's fingertips, he was so angry that his nose was snorting.
"Squeamish! How come you didn't feel any pain when you climbed 88,000 steps for this kid?"
Qin Shu pouted her red lips slightly and said coquettishly: "This is too sudden, Grandpa, why did you hurt my hand?"
Wuweizi ordered: "Drop your blood onto the compass, absorb the surrounding spiritual energy and inject it into the compass, and you will get a Xumi mustard seed, which is a very advanced storage magic weapon. The internal space is a Xumi world that can store a large number of items. It will change according to your ability."
Qin Shu didn't know what Sumeru mustard seeds were, but when she heard that they could store a large amount of items, a light flashed in her eyes.
She smeared the blood on her fingers on the Golden Dragon Compass, then sat cross-legged, madly absorbing the rich spiritual energy in the air.
Wuweizi saw his granddaughter in meditation, walked to Qin Baixuan's side, and said in a deep voice: "You are too anxious. Ah Shu's heart meridian was damaged and her qi was scattered because of the boy surnamed Xie. It's lucky that she survived. You want to make her emotionally unstable at this time. It's clearly sending her to her death."
Qin Baixuan looked at Qin Shu tenderly and said in a hoarse voice, "I was negligent."
Wu Weizi sighed softly: "Some things can't be rushed. Ah Shu's heart and eyes are now filled with Xie Lanzhi. Don't be too sad or happy anymore."
Qin Baixuan stared at Xie Lanzhi with unfriendly eyes, full of criticism and disgust.
"How could this boy deserve Ah Shu to be so devoted to him!"
Wu Weizi snorted softly: "Don't underestimate the feelings between these two children. Ah Shu even gave up her life for him."
Qin Baixuan's eyes became fierce, and he said in a deep voice: "He is Ah Shu's weak spot, he shouldn't exist!"
Wuweizi said nothing, but consideration flashed in his eyes.
The two of them didn't notice that Qin Shu, who was meditating, had her eyelids twitching.
Qin Baixuan lowered his voice and said, "We have to find a way to make this guy disappear. He will affect Ah Shu's path of cultivation."
Wu Weizi shook his head: "It's easier said than done. Ah Shu doesn't want to practice and only wants Xie Lanzhi to be alive. Xie Lanzhi's soul is seriously damaged, and the soul that escaped from his body can't even condense into a human form."
Qin Baixuan said ruthlessly, "Open the sect's forbidden area and throw him in. Death is his fate."
Wu Weizi pondered and said, "This is the only way. However, we have to keep this a secret from Ah Shu. There are corpses all over the forbidden land, and one more person won't make a difference."
Qin Shu had beads of sweat on her forehead. She was shocked when she heard her grandfather and Qin Baixuan's intermittent conversation.
She clenched her teeth and tried hard to hear their conversation clearly.
The golden dragon compass hanging around Qin Shu's neck suddenly burst out with dazzling golden light.
Qin Shu's consciousness was instantly pulled into a place filled with fog, mountains and water, but without any living things. There was not even a single blade of grass, let alone a tree.
Qin Shu immediately realized that this was the Sumeru mustard seed that her grandfather had mentioned.
Qin Shu had no time to look around. Her lowered eyes were filled with panic and sadness that was heart-wrenching.
Grandpa had clearly promised her that he would save Xie Lanzhi, but just because of Qin Baixuan's words, they wanted Xie Lanzhi to die!
Qin Shu clenched her hands, which were hanging at her sides, into fists.
no!
She had to escape with Xie Lanzhi!
Qin Shu, who had made up her mind to escape, looked up and around, and found that this was indeed a storage treasure.
She could feel the soul connection with the Sumeru mustard seed, and the majestic spirit that this world belonged to her.
Obtaining this treasure is a help to her!
Dark river.
Qin Shu regained consciousness and slowly opened her eyes. In front of her was Wuweizi's enlarged face.
Wu Weizi smiled and asked expectantly, "Ah Shu, are you awake? How is it? Do you feel like you've been reborn?"
Qin Shu suppressed the gloom in her eyes and revealed a faint, gentle smile.
"I feel it. The spiritual energy here is very rich. I feel like my body has become a lot lighter."
Wu Weizi said with a look of satisfaction: "You haven't established your foundation yet. Once you have established your foundation, you will have a different feeling. When you become a foundation-building cultivator, you will officially embark on the path of cultivation."
Qin Shu pursed her lips and smiled softly, reaching out to touch Xie Lanzhi's cold and handsome facial features.
She asked softly: "Grandpa, is there any way to wake up Brother Lan without life-threatening danger?"
Wuweizi could not see the alert flashing in Qin Shu's lowered eyes, and said casually: "The simplest way is to nourish him with spiritual energy, but this method is too slow. After you become a foundation-building cultivator, it will take a long time and cultivation to wake him up..."
Qin Shu's eyes flickered slightly, and the smile on the corners of her lips became more genuine.
She put Xie Lanzhi, who seemed to be asleep, into the Sumeru mustard seed and placed the backpack beside it.
Qin Shu stood up and asked, "Grandpa, when are we going to the cultivation world?"
Wuweizi: "Any time."
Qin Shu: "Then let's go."
Wuweizi felt that something was wrong with his granddaughter, but he couldn't tell what was wrong, so he looked at Qin Baixuan.
Qin Baixuan looked at Qin Shu and asked tentatively: "Ah Shu, did something happen to you?"
Although Qin Shu had a smile on her face, the aloofness she exuded was too obvious.
Qin Shu said lazily, "I'm going to the cultivation world. I'm unfamiliar with the place. I'm a little nervous."
Qin Baixuan heaved a sigh of relief after hearing this, and soothed him softly: "Don't be afraid, there are three continents in the cultivation world. Your grandfather and I are in the Eastern Continent, which is the territory of our Linglong Dan Pavilion..."
He told Qin Shu about the distribution of power in the three continents of the cultivation world, how the cultivation world treated mortals as ants, and how cruel it was to kill people for treasures.
Qin Shu listened carefully, taking it in her ears and remembering it in her heart.
"The barrier is about to appear!"
Wuweizi, standing in front of a wall of lava, shouted loudly.
Qin Baixuan immediately took out a crescent-white brocade embroidered skirt from his space ring.
"Ah Shu, we're leaving soon, change your clothes."
Qin Shu stared at the retro dress in front of her, took the clothes and left, changing clothes in the corner with clumsy movements.
When she came out, Qin Baixuan's eyes flashed with amazement and pride that his daughter had grown up.
"Ah Shu is so beautiful. Even the most beautiful woman in the Eastern Continent is not as beautiful as you."
Qin Shu blushed, as if she was embarrassed by the compliments.
Qin Baixuan subconsciously pulled her arm: "We should go!"
The moment he stretched out his hand, Qin Shu dodged it very quickly, being on guard and alert.
Qin Baixuan's face froze, and a hint of hurt flashed in his eyes.
Qin Shu realized that something was wrong and immediately said, "Sorry, it was a subconscious reaction."
Qin Baixuan was silent for a moment, then shook his head and said, "It's okay, just follow me closely. The strangling wind blades in the barrier are very dangerous. If you're not careful, getting hurt is a small matter. The only thing you're afraid of is that you'll be sent to other continents."
Qin Shu's heart trembled, and a thought flashed quickly through her mind.
Wuweizi, who was standing in front of the barrier, urged again: "The barrier is open, hurry up!"
Qin Baixuan grabbed Qin Shu's arm and rushed towards the white mist vortex at lightning speed.
Wuweizi took the cushion and flew away the moment the barrier was closed.
Inside the barrier, strangling wind blades attacked the three people densely.
Wuweizi and Qin Baixuan had high cultivation levels and were able to easily protect Qin Shu.
As they were leading the way, Qin Shu stared at their backs, turned around with a determined look on her face, and ran in another direction.
Qin Baixuan caught a glimpse of Qin Shu's movements from the corner of his eye and shouted anxiously, "Ah Shu, come back! That's not the direction to the East Region Continent!"
Qin Shu felt an unknown force pulling her in front of her, and her body was dragged forward by a suction force.
She took the opportunity to look back and saw Wuweizi and Qin Baixuan with bloodshot eyes.
"If you want to kill Brother Lan, I won't go with you!"
“…”
“…”
Qin Baixuan and Wuweizi were both stunned.
When did they say they wanted to kill Xie Lanzhi?
Wuweizi saw Qin Shu's figure getting farther and farther away, and pushed Qin Baixuan anxiously.
"What are you still standing there for? Go chase him!"
Qin Baixuan flew towards Qin Shu like a flash of lightning.
Qin Shu's pupils shrank sharply, and she turned around and ran away, subconsciously using her own cultivation.
As the spiritual energy in her body circulated, a dragon roar was heard.
"roar--!"
Qin Baixuan, who was chasing him, was shaken away by a powerful force.
When Qin Baixuan looked up to look for Qin Shu again, he found that Qin Shu had disappeared.
