Heavenly Soul Pavilion (VII)
The talisman burst out with a strong and dazzling golden light, which exploded on Xie Fu. Xie Fu wanted to use the barrier to resist, but was pushed back by the residual power of the golden light and stumbled and fell.
No one dared to speak at this moment. How could a dignified master be defeated by Chu Caiwu's talisman?
The talisman gradually went out, and Chu Caiwu's arm was no longer burning. He patted the ashes with his hands and stood beside Yin Zhuo as if nothing had happened.
Although Xie Fu was not actually hurt at all, his clothes had been blown to tatters, breaking into pieces of red rags, like firecracker remnants.
He is the master after all, but now he has lost all his face.
Chu Caiwu realized belatedly that he had gone even further. He glanced awkwardly at Yin Zhuo and then at Xie Fu.
Seeing that no one spoke, Chu Caiwu pretended to be well-behaved and said, "Master, I was wrong."
What he got was not a scolding, but a look of astonishment on Xie Fu's face. He froze in his tracks, and soon, he suppressed it with a serious tone: "You are wrong, and you still do this!"
Chu Caiwu curled his lips secretly. Just because he had done it, he was wrong, so he apologized. Xie Fu's words were very unreasonable. If Chu Caiwu hadn't seen him so miserable, she would not have apologized to him.
It was Xie Fu himself who insisted on interfering between her and Yin Zhuo.
Xie Fu lost his temper in front of the blind man, but Chu Caiwu was not only not afraid, but also showed no reaction. Xie Fu quickly punished him: "You will be punished to kneel in the Bishop's Pavilion for three days."
Mudan secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, the punishment of kneeling for three days was not too severe.
The Bishop's Pavilion was where Xie Fu often stayed.
Before Yin Zhuo could speak, Chu Caiwu immediately tried to calm things down: "Yes, Master."

Tianhun Pavilion Dormitory
"Rapeseed, do you have a man you like?" Peony was unusually shy.
Chu Caiwu said without hesitation: "No."
Mudan snorted shyly, "If you don't want to tell me, forget it! I do have one." Mudan stared at the corner of the table in a daze, then said excitedly, "I like Gong Jiao. He's handsome, patient and kind to me. Most importantly, he's different from those immortals!"
Chu Caiwu pondered Mudan's words carefully. He was handsome, patient, and treated me well. Was this love? Then Yin Zhuo was a thousand times better than Gong Jiao. Mudan liked Gong Jiao. When did her standards become so low?
Chu Caiwu was completely baffled and asked, "Then why don't you like Yin Zhuo?"
Mudan blushed and said angrily, "You should like him, don't tease me!"
Chu Caiwu murmured to herself: "I, like him?"
Mudan came up to her, gossiping. "The deputy bishop contradicted the bishop for you, and it's all over the place. Also, he offended Dong Bai for you, which is tantamount to disregarding Dong Bai's maternal clan. Who could afford to offend the immortal clan?" Mudan's excitement faded, and she asked hesitantly, "He's done this much, and you don't like him?"
Chu Caiwu: “Uh.”
Mudan was afraid that Chu Caiwu would feel embarrassed, so she comforted him, "Don't be afraid. He's your master, so what? In our demon tribe, there has never been a taboo about masters and apprentices not being able to marry."
Chu Caiwu was not hesitant about this, and asked, "Like, what is it?"
Mudan was very disappointed and explained, "It's just that you really want to be close to this person. Your heart is pounding. You feel happy when you see this person. You really want to be with this person."
Every time Chu Caiwu was bullied, Yin Zhuo would protect her, and she would become in a good mood. When she saw Yin Zhuo, she wanted to get close to him and wanted to suck him dry.
Chu Caiwu thought that she seemed to like Yin Zhuo.
Chu Caiwu was unsure and didn't dare to admit it. He picked up the bottle of medicine and hurried out.
By the time Mudan realized what was happening, Chu Caiwu had already left the dormitory, leaving Mudan with a long, trailing chuckle: "Why did you leave?"
Chu Caiwu raised his voice and stretched it out: "I'm going to the Bishop's Pavilion to kneel as punishment!"
Chu Caiwu pondered as she walked, did she like Yin Zhuo? Did she not like Yin Zhuo?
Chu Caiwu's mind was occupied by this question. His thoughts were heavy, but his steps were hurried. He had already reached the Bishop's Pavilion.
The door of the bishop's pavilion was wide open, and Xie Fu was sorting through a pile of documents half a man's height with a stern face.
Suddenly he said, "Come in."
Chu Caiwu walked in with trepidation. This young man, Xie Fuchang, had a face as cold as a coffin. He snatched her elixir and didn't let her get close to Yin Zhuo. He was like a weird old man with a conservative look.
Chu Caiwu clenched the medicine bottle and knelt down.
Xie Fu unconsciously glanced over here, his eyes fell on the bottle of pills, he became more and more angry, but said nothing. If he confiscated the pills, Yin Zhuo would come looking for him again.
Chu Caiwu clutched the pill bottle in fear, took a few steps back, and rubbed his knees against the ground.
She was afraid that Master Xie Fu would snatch it away, and she still had to go to the secret realm to find immortal ginseng for Yin Zhuo, so she couldn't lose the bottle of medicine.
Xie Fu said displeasedly, "As a disciple, you shouldn't be too close to your master. As a woman, you should know that physical contact between men and women is not allowed."
Chu Caiwu understood instantly this time. Xie Fu was saying that she and Yin Zhuo were too close.
She seemed to have determined an answer, that she liked Yin Zhuo.
Chu Caiwu was a little surprised, she finally figured out the answer.
Xie Fu cleared his throat and said, "If you don't answer the Master's questions, you are disrespecting the Master three times."
Chu Caiwu looked at Xie Fu. His face was handsome, but not as handsome as Yin Zhuo's.
However, Xie Fu was like a pedantic old man who only knew how to preach. Chu Caiwu endured his three words, but could no longer bear it: "Is it that I am in the same room with Master, and that I am not too close to Master, and that is also inappropriate for men and women to touch each other?"
Xie Fu choked up. According to human rules, it was indeed forbidden for men and women to touch each other when they were alone in the same room. In this case, he could be considered to be in too close a relationship with his master, but it was a bit far-fetched.
Occasionally, the rustling sound of Xie Fu turning pages could be heard in the Bishop's Pavilion. Chu Caiwu knelt like this all day and did not attend any classes.
Chu Caiwu clutched the pill and returned to the dormitory looking dejected.
There was a bowl of vegetable soup on the table with a few drops of oil floating on it.
Mudan picked up the vegetable soup and said happily, "Come here, I prepared some vegetable soup with oil for you! I secretly asked for the oil from the Tianhun Pavilion cafeteria."
Chu Caiwu took the vegetable soup and drank it all in one gulp. However, it was of no use as she was still very hungry.
She really wanted to find Yin Zhuo and suck a few drops of immortal blood.
Soon, Chu Caiwu rejected this idea. She seemed to like Yin Zhuo, and she always felt it was weird that she was sucking blood so openly, and her face became hot just thinking about it.
Mudan looked at Chu Caiwu's lost expression and asked, "What's wrong? Did Xie Fu say that to you again?"
Chu Caiwu shook her head: "No..." She looked at her hands. They had not become transparent. She still had flesh and blood.
Take advantage of this opportunity to pick some ginseng for Yin Zhuo, killing two birds with one stone.
First, it can replenish Yin Zhuo's immortal power, and second, he can suck the immortal blood under the pretext of giving him immortal ginseng.
Chu Caiwu suddenly became motivated again: "Mudan, do you want to go to the secret realm with me tonight to pick immortal herbs?"
Upon hearing this, Mudan became excited: "Okay, let's go together! I'll also send it to the demon tribe."
The two hit it off immediately. The sun was setting, dusk was fading, and the night wind was becoming bitingly cold.
Chu Caiwu and Mudan have reached the edge of the barrier and are hesitating about how to break it.
The spring water gurgles, and there is no one here, it is cold and quiet.
The secret realm is called the Soul-Guiding Spring, and the outside world knows very little about it because almost no one can enter the barrier.
Mudan patted the barrier with her hand, and it was bounced back in an instant, so she couldn't get in.
Chu Caiwu poured out the pill with force. The whole pill was as big as a fist.
Chu Caiwu handed it to Mudan and said, "We'll each have half."
Mudan's face lit up with a huge smile. She hugged Chu Caiwu tightly, rocking her back and forth, and said excitedly, "Youcai! You're really fine!"
The two of them stumbled and fell, penetrating the barrier together and falling into it.
Mudan clutched the pill in her hand, puzzled: "Strange, we haven't taken the pill yet, how did the barrier break?"
Chu Caiwu felt cold all over, his scalp was numb, and the Soul-Guiding Spring was full of people.
The leader, the one missing an arm, the one with half his body broken.
Those people stayed away from her and were particularly afraid of her.
Mudan was puzzled, thinking she had acted too impulsively, and said, "I'm sorry... I didn't mean to trip you."
Chu Caiwu came back to her senses. She did not blame Mudan. Mudan seemed unable to see those people.
To confirm his guess, Chu Caiwu asked, "Mudan, do you think there are a lot of people around?"
Mudan glanced at the empty surroundings and said blankly: "No...no, this is the Soul-Guiding Spring. Even if there are, it shouldn't be a lot of people, but a bunch of souls, right?"
Chu Caiwu suddenly understood that those must be the souls killed by the leader of the immortal clan, and they must be related to the blood slaves.
Chu Caiwu was going to collect immortal ginseng this time, so he didn't care too much and said directly: "Since we are here, let's go collect immortal herbs and then get out quickly."
After hearing what Chu Caiwu said, Mudan felt nervous and held her arm. The two of them were inseparable.
The area around the Soul-Guiding Spring is very strange. The gurgling water seems to be full of life, but there are not even any weeds on the shore. Why do they say there are many magical herbs here?
A tiny soul floated towards Chu Caiwu, staring at him timidly.
Chu Caiwu's scalp was numb and his whole body was cold as if he was soaked in ice water.
No matter what, she is also a demon, but she doesn't know any self-protection spells...
! Talisman paper.
She still had the talisman paper that Yin Zhuo gave her. Chu Caiwu took out a thick stack of talisman paper and placed them around her in fear.
Mudan hugged Chu Caiwu's arm, and now she held it even tighter, hesitating: "Where...where is the ghost?"
Mudan couldn't see the souls in the Soul-Guiding Spring, so Chu Caiwu covered it up and said, "No, no, they're just for self-defense."
Suddenly, the little soul tried weakly: "I can take you to pick the magic grass..."
Chu Caiwu's eyes lit up, but suddenly stopped, how...how could such a good thing happen.
Chu Caiwu pretended to talk to himself, "Where is the magic grass?"
Mudan clenched the half of the pill with shaking hands: "No, I don't know."
Chu Caiwu glanced at Mudan, and Mudan acquiesced that Chu Caiwu was talking to her...
The little soul spoke again and replied: "Give me a bottle of blood, and I will take you to find the magic grass."
A bottle? Chu Caiwu thought it was just a drop.
The lion opened its mouth wide...
Mudan threw the pill into her mouth, and suddenly the spiritual power in her body conflicted and she almost fell into the spring.
The sound transmission bell on Mudan's body rang, and Gong Jiao said in a panic: "Something happened to Yin Zhuo. He was taken away by Sui Qingxuan."
