Chapter 283 Dissipated Energy Ball
Xu Chuchu turned her head and looked at the energy ball floating in the air. It had shrunk slightly because the emperor had absorbed its energy, but it was still pure, clean and powerful.
Energy is never dirty. Only those who create and use it are dirty.
It is formed from the gathering of countless living souls, and those who covet its power will be cursed.
But unfortunately, even though they know it is cursed, countless people still rush to snatch it and possess it.
This is a contradiction.
What should she do with it? Using it was impossible. Should she find a place to protect it, just like the Shen family guarded the candlestick at the bottom of the lake?
Xu Chuchu placed Xiao Yu's body in place and walked to the energy ball.
Without the irritation of the hostile user and the pool water, the energy ball was now warm and emitted a soft light.
It would be nice if... it could just dissipate. This thought suddenly popped into Xu Chuchu's mind.
They are the energy refined from the souls of innocent people. When they dissipate, even if they cannot be reincarnated, their souls can return to their homeland and rest in peace.
She didn't need to worry about what to do with it.
Unexpectedly, as soon as this thought came to her mind, the energy gathered in front of her shattered from the inside out.
It first changed from a ball into a block, and then from a block into mist, as if it was about to drift away into the distance.
What was going on? Xu Chuchu was shocked. Could they even hear her thoughts?
"As expected." The master appeared behind her without her noticing. "Did you just think in your heart that you wanted them to disappear?"
"Master, do you know what's going on?" Xu Chuchu asked hurriedly.
The master nodded. "You can probably guess. This energy ball was originally in the hands of the Grand Master. After the Emperor killed the Grand Master, the energy balls recognized him as their master. Now that you have defeated the Emperor, they obey your orders. You command them to dissipate, and they will do so naturally."
"No wonder the emperor wanted to kill the Grand Master before Xiao Yu. It turns out he was vying to be the master of the energy ball." Xu Chuchu muttered to himself.
The master smiled again. "Yes, but you did well. Their power is too strong, and it will induce greed and lead people to do things beyond their bottom line. Dispersion is the best destination."
Xu Chuchu didn’t like her master’s Buddhist style before, but this time she shared the same opinion.
As he was speaking, these energies transformed into transparent spirits, like elves in a fairyland, floating in the air for a while, and then drifted away into the distance.
"They have returned to their homeland." Xu Chuchu felt relieved and felt that he had done another good thing.
"Yes, I hope they can still meet their former relatives and friends." The master smiled.
Xu Chuchu watched them go away, but found that there was still a small group of spirits gathered in the center of the energy sphere, circling aimlessly in the air, and seemed to have no intention of leaving.
These spirits are more transparent and dazzling than the ones that just flew away, as if they are purer.
Xu Chuchu suddenly understood: "These are the first batch to be refined. They have completely lost their consciousness of their previous lives, so they are homeless."
As if responding to Xu Chuchu's judgment, these spirits began to shake their bodies towards her.
While Xu Chuchu was still wondering what to do, they circled towards her and then slowly merged into her body.
Xu Chuchu immediately felt the surge of spiritual power in his body. The spiritual power that had been consumed in the battle was instantly restored, and even felt like it was constantly rising.
Most importantly, she had no sense of demonization or corruption from these spirits, which meant she wasn't cursed.
So they were... repaying her?
“Thank you, but this isn’t just my achievement,” she told the spirits. “Everyone present has contributed so much.”
The spirits quickly understood her words. Some of them continued to surround her, while others flew away and merged into everyone's body.
Except for the fox fairy who fainted in the basket, everyone's physical strength and energy were instantly restored, and their bodies were full of power.
Even Xia Wanqing, who was not a cultivator, felt a miraculous change in her body, as if she could now knock down a wall with one punch.
"Thank you for your hard work." Xu Chuchu watched the last wisp of spirit dissipate in her palm and felt sorry for these souls.
…
After getting ready and resting, everyone prepared to leave the palace.
Chen Zhaozhi was seriously injured and unconscious that day, and was drugged. His body was very weak and he was only half alive. But with the help of his master's medicine and Hu Shanshan's spiritual power, he quickly woke up. Sometimes he hugged his mother, and sometimes he held Xia Wanqing, whimpering.
Xiao Yu has not woken up because he was injured by the energy ball, but his body can move slowly.
The prince also sent people to help, and when he saw Xiao Yu's appearance, he sighed deeply.
Xu Chuchu helped carry Xiao Yu onto the stretcher, but since no one dared to touch his injured arm, she had to do it herself.
It’s so light… so light that it doesn’t feel like a human arm at all, but more like a branch broken from a tree.
Even wrapped in layers of gauze, it was still thinner than a delicate woman's arm.
After Xu Chuchu placed his arm in place, she tore a piece of cloth and put it on top.
She felt that if Xiao Yu was awake, he would definitely want to do the same.
After leaving the palace, except for Xia Wanqing who returned to her own home, everyone else took advantage of Xiao Yu's coma and unable to make decisions, and moved into his Xiao Mansion in a grand manner.
Ah Fu was stationed at the Xiao Mansion. Seeing Xu Chuchu among the crowd, he dared not refuse and hurriedly asked people to arrange a guest room.
"Afu, your big cat brother is back!" Big Orange was very happy when he saw Afu. He pounced on him and turned into a cat in mid-air and landed in Afu's arms.
But Ah Fu had no time to coax him at the moment. His heart was on Xiao Yu lying on the stretcher. He grabbed him twice and threw him to the ground, then followed the crowd into the house.
The already plump orange dog was turned into a pufferfish by the anger.
"When will the young master wake up?" Ah Fu was very anxious, and his head was shocked when he saw Xiao Yu's injured arm.
However, no one could answer this question. Only the master sighed and said, "Maybe a few days, or maybe a few months."
Xu Chuchu declined Ah Fu's help and took on all the care of Xiao Yu, including feeding her porridge, washing her... and what she feared most, applying medicine.
Master said that the bone-growing spirit must be applied once a day to prevent bone necrosis and the disease from affecting other parts of the body.
Every time I unwound the gauze, I saw his broken skeleton and the flesh that kept growing and decaying.
She had to remove the rotten flesh and blood, and then apply bone-growing spirit in the gaps between all the bones. If the fixed wooden frame was damaged, it would need to be replaced with a new one.
These steps were not difficult for Xu Chuchu in terms of operation, but they were endless torture psychologically.
She had to fight back her tears to prevent her blurred vision from breaking his bones.
