When Liu Yu received the jade slip, he was still somewhat confused. But after reading its contents and recalling the conversation between Shushu and Xiaotiandao, he finally understood.
At the same time, I felt very fortunate that Little Sweet Potato had accidentally wandered into the cave and met me, and that I had saved her.
It wasn't that I coveted her treasure-hunting abilities; I simply didn't want her to go through those treacherous and unfair treatments again.
After roughly sorting things out, Liu Yu recalled Shushu's past life experiences in the jade slip. In the end, he didn't ask any more questions, but just affectionately patted Shushu's little head and said lovingly.
"Don't worry, Little Sweet Potato, Master knows how to handle this. Also, you will always be our Little Sweet Potato, my little apprentice. No matter what you've been through, that will never change."
Upon hearing this, the last vestige of unease in Shushu's heart vanished, replaced by a bright smile. She replied in her childish voice, "Okay, thank you, Master!"
After saying that, she nestled her little head in Liu Yu's palm, then happily turned and rushed back into Lu Li's arms, hugging him tightly with her little hands, laughing with exceptional joy and delight.
She thought Liu Yu would question her, but to her surprise, her master, like her senior brother, didn't ask anything, didn't reopen her wounds, didn't deny her, and didn't doubt her. How wonderful!
Thinking of this, Shushu hid in Lu Li's arms like a mouse that had just stolen oil, covering his mouth and laughing, which made Lu Li and Liu Yu laugh.
After laughing for a while, Shushu remembered that there was something she had almost forgotten. She quickly took out a bunch of jade boxes and a prescription she had written down according to her inherited memories and handed it to Liuyu.
“Master, this is the recipe for the antidote to the Spirit-Suppressing Powder – the Spirit-Feeding Pill. The jade box contains the spiritual plants that my eldest brother and I have. The rest you will need to find.”
"Do you have the formula for the Spirit-Nourishing Pill?"
Liu Yu was also very surprised to hear this. He had just finished reading the jade slip and was wondering who knew the antidote for the Spirit-Sealing Powder, but he couldn't come up with a clue for the time being.
Unexpectedly, Little Sweet Potato had it in his hand, and he eagerly took the prescription and began to examine it carefully.
The existing spiritual plants, such as millet and potatoes, were marked on the back, so Liu Yu focused his attention on the ones that didn't exist.
After examining it carefully for a while, Liu Yu first sent a message to Liu Ying, who was busy at the affairs hall, asking her to make sure to keep some of the spiritual plants. Then he spoke to Shushu and Lu Li.
"Besides the Earthly Fiend Scale, the Traceless Miasma, the Pure Moon Divine Lotus, and the Dark Flame Leaf, I have the rest on hand."
As he spoke, he also took out all the spiritual plants he had and put them together with the pile of jade boxes that Shushu had taken out, intending to store them separately later, so that he wouldn't accidentally use them and then regret it.
However, he had no clue about the remaining four types. But seeing that Shushu had marked three of them differently, he looked at Shushu and asked with hope in his eyes.
"I see you marked the Earthly Fiend Scale Traceless Miasma and Dark Flame Leaf, but do you know where they are?"
Knowing that Liu Yu was anxious, Shushu didn't delay and gave his answer in the next moment.
"The Earthly Fiend Scale is in the Bert Desert, the Traceless Miasma is in the Fiery Light Volcano, and the Dark Flame Leaf is in the Xunfeng Secret Realm. I roughly know the locations of the first two, but I'll have to go into the secret realm to find the last one."
In closing, Shushu added that she had found the Earthly Fiend Scales and the Traceless Miasma in her past life, but unfortunately, they were forcibly taken away by Wen Jianxi and the artifact spirit.
As for the Dark Flame Leaf, it was found by Wen Jianxi and her artifact spirit together.
At that time, Shushu had just been contracted. Because the things in her internal space were taken away, Shushu refused to cooperate and was tortured by Wen Jianxi and the artifact spirit until she was barely alive. She was then left to fend for herself in the space.
Therefore, Shushu did not participate in Wen Jianxi's trip to the Xunfeng Secret Realm.
However, she knew that Wen Jianxi had obtained a Dark Flame Leaf inside, but she didn't know exactly where the Dark Flame Leaf was located in the Xunfeng Secret Realm, so she had to go in and find it.
Liu Yu had only asked with a tentative attitude, but he was pleasantly surprised to find that Shushu actually knew where the three kinds were, and his expression relaxed considerably.
Then he remembered that the time for the Xunfeng Secret Realm to open again seemed to be approaching. If he remembered correctly, he should also confirm the participants and prepare to set off.
So he looked at Lu Li and asked, "Do you have any other plans recently? If not, would it be alright for you to go to the Xunfeng Secret Realm?" He was planning to have Lu Li go find Dark Flame Leaf.
There was no other way; only those with Nascent Soul cultivation or lower could enter the Xunfeng Secret Realm. He was currently in the late Nascent Soul stage and couldn't enter, so he could only pin his hopes on Lu Li.
As for having Shushu take charge, he had no intention of doing so; that was something for adults to worry about.
"Master, I want to go to the Xunfeng Secret Realm too."
However, before he could finish speaking and before Lu Li could even respond, Shushu spoke up first, saying that she also wanted to go to the Xunfeng Secret Realm!
This wasn't her being stubborn; Dark Flame Leaf is a spiritual plant close to a divine plant, skilled in evasion and disguise.
The reason Wen Jianxi was able to discover it in her previous life was because of her good fortune; ordinary people and spirit beasts simply couldn't detect its existence.
But she was different as a treasure-hunting rat. She had a natural sense of 'treasure hunting', and once she went inside, the probability of finding the Dark Flame Leaf would definitely increase significantly.
Dark Flame Leaf is an essential ingredient for refining Spirit Feeding Pill. Not to mention for the sake of Liuyue Sect, but for her own sake, she had to make this trip.
Otherwise, she'd always be a ticking time bomb, and she wouldn't be able to feel at ease.
Moreover, the Xunfeng Secret Realm will not open again for another fifty years. If we miss it this time, it will be really dangerous. Wen Jianxi is not the kind of person who will use the Spirit-Sealing Powder fifty years from now.
Thinking of this, Shushu's gaze became exceptionally firm, and he tugged at Lu Li's sleeve, urging him to speak up in his defense.
They had already discussed it on the way here, so I hope my senior brother won't go back on his word and stop me from going.
"Master, I will take Junior Sister in. Don't worry, I will put Junior Sister in my spatial storage when we enter the secret realm, and then let her out after we enter. That way, we won't be separated."
Seeing that Shushu was anxious, Lu Li first patted Shushu on the back to comfort him, and then explained before Liu Yu could refuse.
Shushu had discussed this matter with him long ago, and he had planned it out before deciding to let Shushu enter the secret realm.
Unlike other secret realms, the Xunfeng Secret Realm is a place where everyone who enters together will be teleported to the same location and will not be separated.
Just in case, he planned to put the sweet potato in his spatial storage before entering the secret realm, and then let her out after entering.
The Xunfeng Secret Realm is not a super-high-level secret realm. Even if it recognizes the existence of Shushu, it will only regard Shushu as a contracted beast and will not stop it. There have been precedents of this among the fellow disciples.
In this way, as long as they don't separate, he can protect Shushu, not to mention that he has also placed a wisp of divine consciousness on Shushu.
With his divine sense present, he could not only protect her, but also find Shushu by sensing her presence as long as they were in the same space.
