Chapter 341 Troubled Times
People have the ability to heal themselves, especially Ji You's body, which is full of vitality.
As long as the meridians are stretched, the vitality will slowly heal his injuries.
This is also a major direction of early treatment, because his current condition can be said to be fragile at the slightest touch, and he can only slowly restore his vitality and wait until he reaches a stable state before trying other methods.
This is in line with what Palace Master You said, this matter may take a long time, and the most important thing is patience.
During this period, Ding Yao and Zhuo Wanqiu brought everyone from Lingjian Mountain to Tianshuyuan and entered the inner courtyard under the pretext of discussing how to deal with the problems of the surviving clan.
At first, everyone in the Office of Administration really thought they came for serious business, but after entering the inner courtyard, they insisted on seeing Ji You.
Especially Ding and Zhuo, they insisted on staying behind to take care of him every step of the way.
You Yingqiu did not refuse their request. At the same time, she was thinking about the strange things her master had mentioned, so she chatted with them for a few more words.
The young master of Lingjian Mountain did not have the Lingjian in his hand. No matter how strong he was, he was only at the middle level of Wujiang Realm. However, he was able to defend the Taoist temple when Linxian attacked. This was indeed a bit strange.
"They said that the young master of Lingjian Mountain was not injured and is currently managing the situation at Lingjian Mountain. They will come to visit us in person once the situation in the mountain stabilizes."
"He is still alive."
"Who is this...Master talking about?"
"An old friend who has a terrible drinking habit."
The old man murmured something, a hint of nostalgia in his eyes, and when You Yingqiu wasn't looking he went down the mountain to get a pot of wine.
Danzong is still closed to the public.
The six Qingyun sects allowed the Dan Sect to rebuild, but on the condition that the alchemists were not allowed to practice. They also joined forces to restrict the Honglu with their great magic power, which indirectly helped them survive the disaster.
However, although the mountain is still closed, they are less vigilant and will go down the mountain to purchase and receive letters every once in a while.
After a few days' delay, Yuan Caiwei received the message from her sister and insisted on going down the mountain, but was stopped by her father Yuan Li.
"It may seem like the demon failed in this matter, but the balance has been broken. Qingyun is no longer the Qingyun it once was. A long struggle and chaos will ensue. You lack experience in dealing with the world and will cause trouble for the Dan Sect. Moreover, if you leave the mountain, your brother's mind will be distracted."
"Father, Ji You saved our entire clan."
"Of course I know, so I have arranged for Elder Dan Yangzi to come down the mountain. His attainments in alchemy are higher than yours, so you can rest assured."
After receiving the imperial order from the Lord of Jian, Dan Yangzi left Danshan, took a secret passage and came to Tianshuyuan, where he received treatment.
The conclusion he reached was the same as that of the two hall masters.
Ji You was drained dry and his body was extremely weak. The best way was to use his own vitality to nourish himself by stretching his meridians.
Because no matter whether it is elixir or external objects, they are external forces for him now, and external forces will inevitably increase his current burden.
The best way is to use one's own vitality to repair the body to a stable foundation, and then feed him the elixir and perform the spell.
From then on, there was a regular flow of people coming and going in the Auspicious Hall.
Cao Jinsong, Wen Zhengxin, Ban Yangshu, and the Lu sisters will come to visit at the time arranged by You Yingqiu.
There are also Kuang Cheng and Wei Rui.
They returned to Shengjing with Ding Yao and Zhuo Wanqiu. After all, Kuang Cheng was already restless, and he became even more restless when he heard that Ji You was seriously injured.
Yan Shu also felt that Ji You had now protected the inheritance of the six major immortal sects. At least on the surface, they would not be able to attack Ji You again. Going back now was a good opportunity.
In addition to these visitors, Ding Yao and Zhuo Wanqiu often live in the back hall of Jixiang Hall and take turns to look after it.
Dan Yangzi, the elder of Danzong, lives in the Xianke Garden in the inner courtyard and comes here once in a while.
There was also an old doctor who would come to Jixiang Hall every evening to treat Ji You. Ding Yao and Zhuo Wanqiu would feel sleepy at this time, and they didn't know why.
In addition, Tianshuyuan also prepared a memorial service for the victims of this catastrophe.
All the elders, disciples from the inner and outer courtyards, and those who died here were placed in the form of portraits on the right side of the white jade platform for ascension.
But the matter here did not end there.
Those monsters who were nearing the fairyland were indeed dead, but many things have not been fully understood.
Their entire plan, the unknown details, and whether there were other people involved.
These things naturally have traces to follow, because after the Heavenly Dao Sacrifice was cut off by Ji You, the upper five realms of the six major immortal sects captured many people alive.
Those people were first detained in Risheng County and suppressed by the holy weapon, and then they were sent to a dungeon specially built by the Sixian Prison and connected to the large formation.
The six major immortal sects all have people stationed around the dungeon, keeping a strict watch and constantly torturing the dungeon.
After the Great Heat, a light rain visited Qingyun.
Under the guidance of Si Mujing, the chief of the Immortal Supervisor, Bai Rulong walked through the corridor deep in the dungeon.
In order to connect to the large formation, this dungeon was built underground. It was dark all around and only illuminated by oil lamps. It looked very dark, and people walking in it would feel suppressed and suffocated.
Soon, Bai Rulong was taken to a solitary cell deep inside.
By the dim candlelight, he saw his father in the cage.
The head of the Bai family, Bai Zhengze, looked extremely embarrassed.
During the battle at the ruins, all his clothes were torn and looked dirty. In addition, he had been living in confinement for a long time, and his spirit had reached its limit.
Seeing this scene, Bai Rulong didn't know what emotion he should express, so he could only remain numb and silent.
Bai Zhengze also saw his son by the candlelight at this time. After staring at him for a long time, he couldn't help but ask, "What are you doing here?"
"I want to ask my father why things turned out like this."
"You think I did something wrong?"
Bai Rulong looked at him: "I can't believe my father is right."
Bai Zhengze sneered, "There's no right or wrong in this world, only winning or losing. We're wrong if we lose. If we win, history won't record it like this."
“How would it be written?”
"Of course, the Bai family is in charge of Zhongzhou. Their power is greater than that of the immortal sects, and congratulations are coming from all directions."
Bai Rulong stared at him with red eyes: "Is power really so important?"
Bai Zhengze narrowed his eyes. "Without power, you'll always be at the bottom of the social ladder. No matter how hard you try, you'll always be inferior to others. Even when oppressed by a thousand-year-old family, you'll have to smile respectfully. What I do is for the honor of my family. You have to understand that opportunities to overturn the world are rare, so it's worth a try."
"If my Bai family had a blood feud with someone, I could understand that, but could it be that my father was just motivated by desire?"
"Our family certainly doesn't have any deep blood feuds with others, but we are constantly declining from the bottom of the immortal family. I have practiced for countless years but still cannot break through. I can only endure my life in pain. You are still young and may not understand the torment."
Bai Rulong looked at him expressionlessly: "So you used everyone in your family as nourishment for your own breakthrough, including your own son?"
Bai Zhengze's expression suddenly darkened. "If we win this battle, those people will be invited into the ancestral hall and worshipped by generations of the Bai family. Your brother Sihu will be placed at the forefront and regarded as a heroic spirit."
"But father chose me in the first place, right?"
As soon as the words fell, the cell suddenly fell into silence, as if the candlelight and the air had solidified at the same time.
Bai Rulong looked at his father staring at him and murmured, "When I first entered the Heavenly Academy, I received the elixir from my father. I was flattered, but now I realize that it is something that can turn me into a monster."
Bai Zhengze suddenly laughed: "That's right, because of your laziness, I had no choice but to choose Sihu and spare your life."
"But you chose Sihu and killed Erniang, which shows that you don't like them that much. In your eyes, everyone is expendable."
“Those who achieve great things naturally cannot get bogged down in trivial matters.”
Bai Rulong suddenly let out a breath, then slowly stood up and walked out of the cell.
In fact, he doesn't understand anything about the world affairs, and he is indeed useless. He doesn't even have many opinions of his own and is easily misled.
So apart from the fact that they killed people to make medicine and harmed babies, he could somewhat understand his father's desire to be strong and strive for progress.
But from his own emotional point of view, he couldn't find a reasonable excuse to convince himself.
When he was rescued by Ji You in Zhongzhou, he saw many evil species and felt that his father had never wanted him to live.
But when the six major immortal sects issued a declaration of war, he had a glimmer of hope.
He thought that his father was afraid of failure, so he acted extremely cold and cut off all ties with me in front of the world, so that even if he failed, he would not be implicated.
But just as he kept recalling and trying to find more evidence to confirm this guess, he suddenly remembered the box of pills, and also remembered the words "for the honor of the family."
At that moment, he almost collapsed.
Because he suddenly realized that he should be the one playing the role of Bai Sihu.
The reason why he didn't eat it at that time was because he always felt it was strange that his father had always favored Bai Sihu, and it should not be his turn to get this elixir.
Bai Rulong walked out of the dungeon. After seeing the sunlight, he was silent for a long time. Then he bowed slowly to Mu Jing and said, "Thank you, Mu Tisi, for your help. I know that the six major immortal sects have issued an order not to allow anyone to visit."
Mu Jing shook her head. "Master Ji has helped us a lot in the mission to the Snow Region, the transportation of demon stones, the extermination of evil species, and the Xinyuan disaster relief. Since Master Bai is his friend, he will definitely help us when necessary."
Bai Rulong was silent for a moment and then asked, "Do you think what my father said makes sense?"
"Just an excuse."
"Is that an excuse?"
Mu Jing looked up at the distant sky. "Humiliation? Oppression? You aristocratic families don't produce anything, yet you consume all the tributes from the world. While there are certainly some high and some low, at least everyone has a good end and won't starve to death or freeze to death. Using this as a banner is truly ridiculous."
Bai Rulong clenched his fists after hearing this: "Perhaps I really don't understand my father's painstaking efforts for the family?"
"Mr. Bai, don't be deceived. All your relatives have been eaten, so how can there be a Bai family? That is just your father's desire. The Bai family you are thinking of are the people you know, your brothers and sisters, your uncles and aunts. The Bai family he is talking about is just himself, it's different."
"I see……"
Bai Rulong murmured and returned to Tianshuyuan as if he had lost his soul.
Early the next morning, he went to the Auspicious Palace to visit Ji You, who was still in a coma. Then he left Tianshuyuan alone and returned to the dilapidated Bai family in Zhongzhou.
The outer courtyard students who were in the same class as Ji You had already completed their semester. Even if this catastrophe had not happened, they should have left the courtyard.
In addition to constantly interrogating the demons who were caught on the spot, the Immortal Sect is also constantly searching for the demons who escaped.
Within just three days, thirteen of the thirty-six people who had fled were executed.
The Qingyun world is indeed very big, but just like the evaluation that Ji You received when he killed five Wujiang people in order to defend Danshan, where can you escape if you offend the Immortal Sect.
The only ones still hiding here are the five people from the Du family in Liangzhou, the ten people from the Li family in Zhongzhou, and several other heads of aristocratic families who are involved in this matter.
Perhaps because the constant pursuit made them frustrated and they felt like they had given up, these people kept killing people as they fled.
As a result, people in Zhongzhou, Liangzhou, and even Qingzhou and Yongzhou were in panic.
Although the holy weapon has been revived, they are no longer a threat to the Immortal Sect without the Immortal Realm, but they are still irresistible to those aristocratic families that have suffered heavy losses.
After all, these people have reached a very high level and have extremely high combat power.
Under the dark night with dark clouds covering the moon, the Li family fled all the way, going from Liangzhou to the northeast of Lingzhou, passing through the northwest of Qingzhou, and once again entered the vicinity of the ruins.
Dozens of elders from Tianshu Academy and Chen's Immortal Clan chased here, but unexpectedly met a group of elders from Wendao Sect, Lingjian Mountain and Shanhai Pavilion.
After a brief conversation, they realized that the other party had come here to pursue the remnants of the Du family.
After the Heavenly Dao Sacrifice was cut short, people from all sects rushed back to their sects. In addition, the sea-like evil spirit from the human race's altar spread into the forest, so that the area around the ruins was not guarded by anyone.
They are not affected by the evil spirit, but can block the powerful enemies chasing them. They are indeed an excellent choice.
But in doing so, they became trapped beasts.
Moreover, the evil spirit in the ruins will eventually dissipate, and then they will have nowhere to escape.
Therefore, the people who came to pursue them were not in a hurry, but chose to stay trapped.
The surrounding noble families also suffered greatly. Although they could not fight head-on, they sent countless disciples from other branches to help the Immortal Sect trap the monster.
Everything was just as expected. The evil spirit was indeed gradually dissipating, and the encirclement began to slowly advance.
However, as Yuan Li, the head of Danzong, said, although the demons were killed one after another, the problem is that the balance of Qingyun that lasted for a thousand years has been broken, which will inevitably lead to greater disputes.
Humanity has been writing history for thousands of years, and after every upheaval, this kind of clue would appear...
In the autumn, the Qingyun after the disaster did not stay stable for long, and the aristocratic families in various places began to move around.
For example, the Guo family in Zhongzhou claimed that a daughter of theirs was missing, and countless children from aristocratic families ran away and appeared around those aristocratic families that had been exterminated.
Other families were not to be outdone, saying that treasures had been stolen, relatives had been assassinated, and various excuses emerged, leading to conflicts everywhere.
"These are truly troubled times. The calamity has just passed, and the world is already in chaos."
Prince Chong was standing in his own residence, facing a group of pro-Xian officials including Wei Li, and couldn't help but mutter.
Wei Li now looked at King Chong and said, "Turbulence can sometimes also be an opportunity."
"Indeed, turmoil is also an opportunity. Ever since the Sixian Supervisor came to power, our pro-immortal faction has been neglected. The situation here is chaotic, but it will inevitably create countless more powerful families. We should place our bets accordingly."
"The Li family has been wiped out, leaving behind a large inheritance. Although the He and Zuoqiu families have also suffered heavy losses, they are backed by the Immortal Sect. I think Zhongzhou will inevitably be swallowed up by them. When the zombie tide hit, we should have taken over the incense relationship in Shengjing and then maintain it well."
Wei Li raised his head after hearing this and said, "There's also Youzhou. Youzhou has always been dominated by the Chu family, and now it will definitely be closely watched. As for the other six states, they are also worth plotting against."
The fact is just as these pro-immortal factions expected, various disputes continue to escalate.
Other weaker families did not sit and wait, but instead secretly united and fought against each other. At this moment, old friendships and feuds began to be reborn.
As for Youzhou, after losing the Chu family, Youzhou was like a piece of cake without an owner, and soon attracted countless aristocratic families to send people to move in.
There were also Liangzhou and Qingzhou, which were almost completely destroyed, and the whereabouts of the aristocratic families were constant, and the impact they caused began to become more and more far-reaching.
It felt as if those evildoers had reshuffled the world. Although they failed to reap the final fruits, they did drag Qingyun into a chaotic world.
In fact, according to the rules, with the Immortal Sect guarding Qingyun, it is far from the turn of the aristocratic families to share the cake.
But the problem is that after experiencing this catastrophe, the Immortal Sect seems to have no time to take care of so many things.
Because the dispute arose suddenly, everyone heard that civil strife had also broken out in Xuanyuan Immortal Mansion, and countless people had been killed and injured.
In addition, the Chen family announced the temporary closure of the mountain for unknown reasons, which further fueled the fierce chaos.
At the old site of the Li family under the cover of night, several figures moved forward stealthily. After groping for a while, they saw a mighty sword energy descending from the sky, and blood splattered in an instant.
At the same time, whistling sounds suddenly appeared from all directions, and someone gathered a beam of sharp fairy light, coming towards them with murderous intent.
The Li family is a thousand-year-old family with a profound heritage. There are countless secret books and private treasures in the family. Just revealing a little bit of them is enough to allow a young family to reach a new level.
At that time, a young cultivator seemed to be holding something and was flying out madly.
But before he could run too far, a ray of fairy light suddenly fell and instantly turned him into a bloody mist. The object in his hand quickly attracted several figures who fought for it.
At the same time, in Youzhou Chu City, several waves of dark figures began to gather outside the city. With the sound of a porcelain cup breaking, murderous intent instantly surged.
But in an instant, magic and sword lights whistled a hundred times.
In an instant, blood was pouring down the white marble road, and the fishy smell filled the entire city.
The people living in the outer city of Chu City are basically distant relatives of the Chu family with very thin blood ties. There are also quite a few mortals, and they are all hiding in their homes and shivering.
Things are just as Bai Zhengze and Bai Rulong said, in Qingyun, where the class divisions are extremely clear, turmoil is rare, and every time it occurs, it is worth giving it a try.
Boom!!!!!!!
As the war intensified, a loud bang came from the northeast, shocking everyone.
In Shengjing City, countless diners in teahouses and taverns could not help but lower their heads, watching the tea and wine in their cups tremble continuously, which lasted for several hours.
