After leaving the meeting place, Luo Fentian immediately went to the Tianshan Mountains to find some herbs for the spirit insects.
It will help with her condition; applying it might help her wake up quickly.
Luo Fentian sat by the Jade Pool, rubbing the medicinal herbs in his hands while stroking the back of the spirit insect's original form.
Although it wasn't as smooth as human skin, at least the back of the spirit insect was quite comfortable.
He casually sat on the shore, chatting to himself as he tossed the medicinal herbs he had been kneading into the water. He murmured, "Spirit Insect, do you think it was a good or bad thing for Junior Sister to go to Medicine Ghost Valley this time? Although she encountered a magical beast, her body was still greatly damaged. It will definitely take a lot of effort to recover."
The other person is an experienced user who doesn't take medication, and every time he complains that it's too bitter or too astringent.
The spirit insect's body has completely lost the intelligence and agility it had when it transformed. It only knows how to float back and forth in the Jade Pool, feeling the spiritual energy flowing into its body.
"If you were still awake, you'd probably be jumping around next to her right now. So you'd better wake up quickly, otherwise Xie Zhou will only be thinking about you all day, and that won't do if it interferes with what he's doing."
After all, everyone in the East Gate was eyeing the position of the sect leader's personal disciple, and they were always thinking about pushing Xie Zhou to the forefront of public opinion.
Luo Fentian raised his hand, looking at the green liquid in his palm. He couldn't help but feel a little helpless. Fortunately, he grabbed another handful of herbs and crushed them in his palm. As long as the juice was mixed with the Jade Pool, it would be better able to heal the spirit insects.
It seems that only if this guy wakes up sooner can Xie Zhou put his mind at ease about the sect.
Then, feeling utterly helpless, he sighed and went back to his work.
Meanwhile, where Xie Zhou was resting, Hua Zilai was asking Xie Zhou with a look of surprise about some things related to Medicine Ghost Valley.
The other person felt quite helpless. Wasn't this guy the one who hated asking these sect-related questions the most before? Why is he so curious now? Could it be that someone enlightened him when he left?
My mind was filled with many questions, but I didn't want to offend the other party by asking directly, so I decided to be more tactful.
Xie Zhou raised his hand and gently placed the back of his hand on Hua Zilai's forehead to check its temperature. "Do you have a fever?"
Then he muttered to himself, "This shouldn't be. The temperature is perfectly normal. It's neither too cold nor too hot. How could this be?"
Could it be that this guy is missing a screw, which is why he's in this situation where he wants to ask questions?
Helpless, Hua Zilai had no choice but to slap away Xie Zhou's hands that were roaming all over her body. "I don't have a fever. I just want to ask you what happened in Medicine Ghost Valley. It seems like your expression is off when you come back."
Not only Xie Zhou, but also his martial uncle Luo Fentian, both of them looked at him as if they were seeing a ghost.
After this reminder, Xie Zhou finally remembered the boy he had met in Medicine Ghost Valley. "But speaking of which, do you have any half-brothers? Or rather, biological brothers?"
"A younger brother? My mom only gave birth to me, how could a younger brother have come along?"
As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly realized something was wrong, as if he had remembered something terrible from the past.
His expression tightened, immediately puzzling Xie Zhou, who was standing beside him. "Could it be that you've remembered something?"
Hua Zilai nodded slightly, "I thought that since so many years have passed, no one would bring this up again, but I didn't expect that I still couldn't escape it."
"Nothing falls off? That's really strange. I actually met a boy in Medicine Ghost Valley who looks exactly like you. At first, I thought it was something strange done by the people from the Forgotten Spirit Palace, but then I walked up to him and tried to remove the mask from his face, but I found that there was none at all."
It was at this moment that Xie Zhou realized that the person in front of him was not an imposter.
“I don’t have a half-brother, or even a biological brother. The boy you saw who looks exactly like me is me.”
Me too? What do you mean, "me too"?
Xie Zhou felt overwhelmed by a barrage of questions and couldn't process them all at once.
It's not his half-brother, nor his biological brother, but himself. Could it be another personality?
That's not necessarily true. One can't have a split personality. I've only read about this in books and haven't verified it with my own eyes. I never expected it to be true.
"You mean the boy I saw in Medicine Ghost Valley was also you?" Xie Zhou shook his head in disbelief, took a few steps back, and leaned against the table next to him, trying to calm the doubt in his heart.
"Yes, it is me, but also another me. I believe that with Master's intelligence, you should be able to guess it by now. The other me did not listen to me and insisted on going to steal the magical beast. I did not listen to my advice and now I deserve to die. Master, you don't need to worry about it."
What does it have to do with him if his other self has a problem? The important thing is to survive.
Xie Zhou shook his head helplessly, but in the end he still opened the Bagua Formation to check the future.
"In the future, a great battle is about to begin, and it awaits us. Hua Zilai, you must remember that as my disciple, you cannot be inferior to others in your conduct or your ability to do things. With the great battle imminent, I need your help. During this time, you must train diligently and support yourself in order to protect others."
Hua Zilai nodded, knowing in his heart that his master was doing this for his own good; otherwise, no one would be willing to judge his right and wrong.
Xie Zhou couldn't help but clench his fists. A great battle was imminent, and his spiritual power was already greatly depleted. He had to seize the time to improve his strength so that he could deliver a heavy blow to the Party in the future.
At the same time, we must get the people in the sect training and moving around as soon as possible in the next few days, otherwise there will be big trouble later.
In such dire circumstances, no one cares who is lost or who is still alive; you must rely on your own tenacious willpower to slowly survive.
"Master, don't worry. I will definitely train harder during this period and will never let you down."
Xie Zhou reached out and gently patted the other person's hand. They were both flesh and blood; who could favor whom?
"You must remember, it's not that I'm being strict with you, but as my disciple, you must have something that sets you apart from others for them to respect you. When the great battle comes, I may not be able to take care of so many people, so at that time I can only rely on you and your fellow disciples."
Similarly, only by arranging everything now can we avoid chaos later. I'm unlikely to be the only one in this world who understands this kind of divination and fortune-telling technique; I must act before they can react.
