In the blink of an eye, a month passed and he had found the twenty or so herbs one by one, but there was no news about the last herb no matter whether he looked for it or bought it.
After finally spending money to get information from the mysterious businessman, he sighed deeply.
"Senior, what should we do?"
This last medicinal ingredient is called fluorescent grass, and its growing conditions are very strict.
It will not grow without the nourishment of extremely pure spiritual energy and soil, and this fluorescent grass can only grow every hundred years.
The mysterious businessman told them that they could only wait until the Jindan Secret Realm trial in a few days to look for it and maybe find it.
But the problem is that he needs to repair his meridians before the trial so that he can participate.
Yun Manxing didn't seem to be anxious after hearing this.
"This is easy to fix. I'll modify the prescription. Although the effect won't be as good as the first version, it's better than nothing at all."
"How's your training been going recently?"
At night in the inn, Yun Manxing controlled Yu Tian's body and wrote the prescription at the desk while asking in his heart.
"Senior, the method you taught me is very useful. In just two months, I went from having no spiritual power to the late stage of foundation building."
"But the spiritual energy is a bit stuck now. I have a feeling that I can find some opportunities in the secret realm."
Yu Tian answered silently while feeling the stagnant spiritual power.
"Well, keep working on it."
In the past few days, Yun Manxing has been revising his skills based on Yu Tian's practice progress.
Now that she sees the good results, she is also very happy.
Her soul was damaged and she spent most of her time sleeping to repair it. Given the injuries she suffered, it would take hundreds of years for her to fully recover.
Yun Manxing thought of Kong Ling's disgusting face that day and lowered her eyes to block the cold light in them.
Yu Tian needed to take a roundabout approach because she was not strong enough, but she didn't need to wait until she returned to the upper realm. Her first thing was to let Kong Ling experience the pain she had experienced.
After revising the prescription, I collected most of it, so I finished it quickly this time.
Yu Tian looked at Yun Manxing and saw that she was still making medicine for him. He was so moved that he didn't know what to say.
He owes Yun Manxing too much in this life.
After discovering that Yun Manxing preferred sweets, he deliberately asked Yun Manxing to come out during meal times.
Apart from completing the tasks assigned to him by Yun Manxing, his other priority is finding delicious desserts for Yun Manxing.
That day he ran to the other side of the town to buy the famous pear blossom cake and crispy date cake. After packing them up, he couldn't wait to return to the inn.
"Senior, I found a delicious pastry. Come and try it."
"Yu Tian, why do you keep bringing back cakes lately?"
Yun Manxing took over the body, picked up a piece and took a light bite.
Before Yu Tian could answer, there was a knock on the door.
Yun Manxing looked at the situation, swallowed the pastry with a sense of unsatisfied feeling, and stood up to leave.
When she saw who was standing at the door, she was slightly stunned.
"Sir, my father gave me the wrong change. You still need to pay me ten more coins."
Xiaowen looked at the tall and handsome 'Yu Tian' in front of her, and said shyly as she handed over a bag of silver.
"Oh, please run a little girl."
Yun Manxing looked at the little girl's shy face and instantly understood something.
She said, reaching out to take it.
"Sir, I see you're quite unfamiliar with this town. What's the matter?"
Yun Manxing looked at the shy eyes and was about to answer Yu Tian when she felt strongly in her heart that she wanted to take control of the body.
She just thought Yu Tian was shy, and added a considerate sentence after moving aside.
"Don't worry, I'm going to sleep and I won't pry into your privacy."
"Oh no, Senior, it's not what you think!"
When Yu Tian heard this, he hurriedly explained in his mind.
But no matter how many times he called out to Yun Manxing, she didn't respond, and he realized that Yun Manxing was really asleep.
He didn't know why his originally happy mood suddenly dropped to the bottom.
"I don't need to tell you about my affairs. I'll return the bag to you and you can leave."
He looked at the girl in front of him with a cold face, poured out the money from the purse, returned the bag, and immediately locked the door.
Xiaowen outside the door saw that Yu Tian, who had just been very easy to talk to, suddenly became cold, stomped his feet, covered his face and ran away.
Inside the house, Yu Tian sat on a chair and looked at the untouched pastries with a somewhat depressed expression.
Finally, he used his spiritual power to preserve the cakes and quietly went to the bed to meditate.
When he noticed Yun Manxing woke up at night, he gave up control of his body with some surprise.
"Senior, you're awake! I've saved some pastries for you. They're all hot. Would you like to try some?"
Yun Manxing felt a little greedy when looking at the well-kept pastries on the table, and finally sat down.
She ate several pieces of cakes from both plates before she mentioned what happened in the morning in a very casual tone.
"Yu Tian, you are a cultivator and your life span is much longer than that of ordinary people. If you want to find a partner, I suggest you find a cultivator."
When Yu Tian heard this, he knew that Yun Manxing had misunderstood something and hurried to explain.
"Senior, I don't like her. I often go there to buy cakes because..."
"Because I want to bring it back for Senior to eat. I have no interest in that little girl at all."
He suddenly felt a little embarrassed when he talked about the real reason, but he didn't want Yun Manxing to misunderstand him.
"Senior, you have helped me so much, it is only natural that I bring you some pastries."
He was glad that he was not in control of his body, otherwise he might blush uncontrollably.
"I see, that's thoughtful."
Yun Manxing suddenly felt a little uncomfortable when she heard Yu Tian's hesitant explanation.
Few people knew that she liked to eat pastries, and probably only Kong Ling, who regarded her as a thorn in the eyes of the upper realm, knew about it.
She didn't expect that Yu Tian would notice her just by having dinner at Xuanyun Sect.
"Don't worry, as a senior, I will definitely take good care of you, a junior."
"I will sleep for a few days. I will wake up on the day I participate in the secret realm. If there is anything special, call me in your heart."
Yun Manxing suddenly felt that the atmosphere was a little awkward, so he quickly found an excuse and quickly returned the control to Yu Tian.
"Okay, senior, you can rest assured. I will pay attention to the situation around me."
Seeing that there was no sound coming, Yu Tian stood up and opened the window.
The night wind was still a bit cold, but he stood in front of the window without moving.
He wanted the cool wind to blow away his hot body temperature.
Senior...actually I don’t want to call you senior.
I want to call your name.
He stroked the scar on his wrist, his eyes dimming.
He could feel that Yun Manxing had just disappeared with an excuse, but he didn't quite understand why?
"Manxing, you have always treated me like a junior and taken care of me."
He looked at the smell of fireworks outside the window, spoke slowly for a long time, then turned and left.
Now is not the time to think about these things. Wait until both of them have their revenge.
He wanted to tell Yun Manxing that he wanted to be her friend and not just a junior.
