Chapter 316: "Song Linsheng!"...
Gouwu Mountain, the vein of Youdu.
"You mean, with this thing—" Fengdu's eyes lit up, his usual sinister look vanishing, "you can help Anzhi escape?"
Having said that, it was not difficult for everyone present to see that beneath his hesitation was a thrill of excitement.
"How could you possibly be saying that, Lord Fengdu?" Dan Qing thought about the hardships his master had endured, then looked at this guy who had gotten something for nothing. "This is the keel of a zither."
Ming Kun glanced at Dan Qing sideways. Although he didn't know what his purpose was in provoking others, what he said was indeed true.
Now Tai'ao and Gouwu Mountain have become one and the same. If they are to be forcibly separated, they must have a powerful treasure like Qinlonggu to fill the gap. Otherwise, the balance will be lost, and the mountain will collapse and the earth veins will be damaged in the blink of an eye.
Wen Yu's expression was unclear, and she just looked down at the small section of spine in her palm. "I'll try my best."
After all, although she had heard about the power of the piano keel, it was only hearsay. This was her first time to put it into practice, and she didn't even know how to use it.
If only... Master were here...
"Okay, okay, okay." Fengdu was so overjoyed that he stuttered. "Xiao Meng, this matter must succeed, not fail—"
Perhaps it was because the earth's veins were so airtight, but fine beads of sweat gradually seeped out, making him feel suffocated. The tone in his voice when he spoke to Wen Yu also dropped a few degrees.
"How can there be anything in this world that only allows success and not failure?" Tai Hao said, as if he was afraid that Wen Yu would be embarrassed, "Fengdu Jun should know this principle."
"What you said..." Fengdu subconsciously wanted to refute, but he was not completely confused in his heart, "I just..."
Zang Ling closed his eyes, and his hands could not help but press on the hilt of the knife at his waist, "What are you arguing about?"
Her already limited patience for people other than Wen Yu was almost exhausted, and she wished she could chop Fengdu to pieces with a single blow and have some peace and quiet.
Anyway, Fuxue and Chunsha didn't see any blood on this trip to Tanming Island, so it's a good opportunity to stretch their muscles.
"Don't worry, sir." Wen Yu suppressed his uncertainty and responded to Fengdu's words.
Then she looked at Zang Ling, whose face was full of anger and looked like it could explode at any moment, and said soothingly, "Don't worry, either."
This matter has nothing to do with Fengdu Jun. Whether he is there or not, she must rescue Tai'u.
Whether it's the land or the people, they should never be weighed on the shoulders of just one person.
Tai'ao has been sleeping in Gouwu Mountain for hundreds of years, long enough, and can no longer be trapped here.
"I..." Zang Ling's temper softened suddenly, and he finally nodded helplessly towards Wen Yu.
Wen Yu gently patted Zang Ling's hand that was holding the hilt of the knife and took it away, but her eyes unconsciously fell on Tai Hao, "You...don't worry."
The latter naturally understood the deeper meaning of her words, and nodded with a faint smile as an encouragement to Wen Yu.
That reassuring look seemed to say, go for it.
"I will protect you--" Fengdu's face was solemn, and he was no longer in the mood to joke.
Wen Yu did not refuse. Now that Yu Chang was not around, it was naturally good to have Fengdu Jun as the protector.
Originally she had planned to...whatever.
"I will protect her myself." Tai Hao's voice rang out without allowing any objection.
Wen Yu didn't say anything, but her eyes lit up.
"Master, you--" Dan Qing frowned and became anxious.
But before he could say anything else, Fengdu hurriedly interrupted, "You, me...this isn't a conflict."
"Yuan Que--" The earth shook and sand and rocks flew away, interrupting Fengdu.
Jiang Qi used the soil as his body to push away a certain ghost city lord who was blocking his way, and stopped Wen Yu's movements. "I won't let you do this for me."
The light from the zither's keel was so bright that it almost illuminated the entire underground world, and it also allowed Wen Yu to see more clearly Tai's current appearance, which was covered in dirt and had no form at all.
She is not repulsive to the soil.
On the contrary, the soil nurtures most of the life within the Three Realms and the Five Elements, including her.
How could the jade plant, which takes root in the soil and sprouts in the soil, reject the soil?
She just sighed and felt sorry, not wanting Tai to live like this again, not to mention...
"I'm not doing this for you." Wen Yu said firmly, not backing down. "Your spiritual energy is already dissipating. How long can you hold on to Gouwu Mountain?"
It would be better to use the keel of the qin to repair the earth veins, in exchange for her freedom and peace in Central China.
But if Jiang Qi was afraid, he wouldn't have used his body to nourish the earth veins that day. "I'll hold on for as long as I can."
"Anzhi--" Fengdu was pushed and staggered a few steps. Before he could stand firmly, he rushed back.
But Jiang Qi's heart was completely on Wen Yu at the moment, and he had no time to pay attention to him. He just said coldly: "Shut up."
If her junior brother really understood her, he should not force Yuan Que to save her.
"Lord Fengdu, stop her!" Wen Yu made a prompt decision.
She stopped pestering him and without hesitation, she took out the zither's dragon bone and used her own healing spiritual power as a catalyst to begin to peel off Tai's soul and repair the underground spiritual veins.
Fengdu reacted quickly and immediately hugged Taimu, saying in a deep voice, "Anzhi!"
He was usually carefree, but at this moment his face showed rare seriousness and solemnity.
Since we are one and the same, the pain of separation can be imagined...
Wen Yu's thoughts coincided with his, and she was so worried that her movements became labored.
"Don't worry." Tai Hao had come to her side without her knowing when. He raised his sleeves and the light ice blue color flowed through his fingertips into Wen Yu's vest.
Seeing this, Dan Qing rushed out and said, "Master, how about I——"
"Your cultivation is not good enough." Ming Kun sighed without any intention of attacking him.
He was just telling the truth.
The harp keel is certainly extremely powerful, but it still requires the caster's deep spiritual power to catalyze it.
But as for Wen Yu and Tai Hao now... Ming Kun was unsure either.
If he wanted to be absolutely sure, he did have a candidate, but he didn't know where that guy was right now.
Wen Yu glanced at Dan Qing, wondering what he was going to do at this moment.
Although she understood his sincerity in protecting his master, Ming Kun was right. In terms of cultivation, it was safer for Taihao to protect her.
Calming his mind, Wen Yu stopped thinking about other things. The most important thing now was to separate Tai Ao from Gouwu Mountain and then repair the earth veins.
Feeling the endless spiritual power flowing into his body, Wen Yu gradually became proficient from being clueless at the beginning.
Although Tai Hao practices the art of ice, his spiritual power remains gentle, making him worthy of being the God of Spring who brings the harsh winter above and the hot summer below - the Eastern Green Emperor.
The golden zither keel gradually rose into the air under Wen Yu's control, and then turned into drops of mist and flew towards Tai Ai.
Seeing the dirt on Tai's body being washed away inch by inch, revealing her original appearance, Wen Yu couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
"Anzhi! Anzhi!" Accompanied by bursts of exclamations, Fengdu was obviously overjoyed.
Tai, who was mixed with sand and stones and covered with grass and wood debris, also realized that her appearance was changing.
The previously clumsy and heavy body felt increasingly lighter, and even gradually developed hands, feet, and facial features.
Looking at the fingertips that were gradually growing, Jiang Qi touched her eyebrows with a little hesitation. The natural and real feeling of the slightly warm skin made her a little surprised.
Hundreds of years have passed, and this is something she almost forgot, but occasionally she still can't help but think of... her original appearance.
"Yuan Que! Stop!" Jiang Qi seemed to realize something and shouted hurriedly, "If you can't control the qin keel well, you will suffer backlash."
It's not like she hadn't thought about this at first.
Not to mention how difficult it is to obtain this thing, even if you get it by chance, it will fail due to improper use.
Therefore, in the end she chose to suppress it with her own body.
Wen Yu knew what Jiang Qi was talking about, but she had no intention of stopping.
Seeing that Tai's transformation has been initially successful, the next step is to repair the gaps caused by her separation and seal the zither's dragon bone into Gouwu Mountain, and the task will be completed.
"Can you hold on?" Tai Hao asked in a low voice, and then increased the speed of transmitting spiritual power.
Even while holding his breath and concentrating, Wen Yu still had the mind to joke, "I won't die."
"I don't want you to die, I want you to live well." Tai Hao's expression remained unchanged, but there was a barely perceptible tremor in his voice.
She was suddenly choked and could no longer say anything light-hearted.
Wen Yu knew that Tai Hao was a quiet person, unlike Song Linsheng who loved to talk and laugh, but... his nervousness towards her seemed to have not changed, whether in the past or now.
"Yeah." Wen Yu's answer was concise, but it couldn't hide his seriousness.
With Taihao's help, she naturally felt much more relaxed. She immediately mobilized all her cultivation and drove the zither's dragon bone deep into the earth veins in one go, and then used a formation to seal it.
In an instant, as the harp's keel entered the earth veins, the dazzling light around it gradually dimmed.
After being tense for a while, everyone finally had a chance to catch their breath.
Tai Hao, who was behind Wen Yu, collected his spiritual power and was about to reach out to help the person—
"Wenyu! How do you feel?" Mingkun came up and praised him for his majesty, which was no less than that of the past.
Dan Qing was even more exaggerated than him, circling Tai Hao three times to the left and three times to the right, "Master, are you okay?"
Zang Ling, who was caught in the middle, watched the two people's interrupted movements silently, and finally set his sights on the place where the zither's keel disappeared.
The keel of the piano was easy to obtain and sealed quickly, but was everything... too smooth?
She was a little uneasy.
However, after dealing with these miscellaneous matters in Gouwu Mountain, she will be able to return to Jiangyang Mansion to pick up Wen Yanzi, the sooner the better.
"Yuan Que--" Jiang Qi finally regained his true form. He no longer had any scruples and immediately pounced towards Wen Yu.
Wen Yu was suddenly embraced by her, and the fragrance of plants and trees bound the two of them tightly together, "I——"
She didn't know what to say.
As long as we can give Taiu freedom and bring stability to Zhongzhou, that will be enough.
Then she could also return with Chen Bi as promised, go to Jiangyang Mansion to celebrate the New Year with the younger generations, and then return to the Spring Temple to report to Master Chi Huanghe.
"Anzhi, Anzhi." Fengdu caught up and hurriedly pulled Jiang Qi down. "This is Xiao Meng, Xiao Meng."
As he spoke, he did not forget to glance at Taihao's face, fearing that Jiang Qi's loss of composure would offend him.
They had agreed at the Netherworld Palace that as long as An Zhi could be rescued, he was not allowed to interfere in other matters.
Anzhi is naturally no exception.
Wen Yu looked over Jiang Qi's shoulder and clearly saw a strange flash in Fengdu's eyes, but before she could open her mouth to ask, she heard the sound of a heavy object falling to the ground.
Like a landslide or an earthquake.
"Song Linsheng!" Wen Yu's heart was shocked and she exclaimed subconsciously.
Even when she hurriedly pushed Tai Ai away and turned around to look at Tai Hao lying on the ground, she didn't realize whose name she was calling.
"Master..." Dan Qing was so anxious that his face turned red, and he immediately wanted to help, "I told you before that you are..."
Wen Yu pushed Dan Qing away, took the pale Tai Hao into his arms, and squeezed his palm.
The tentacles felt cold and lifeless.
What was going on? When he was protecting her just now, his spiritual power was still abundant and endless, but now... how come there is only a little bit left?
Could it be that——
She didn't care that she was sweating profusely, and just carefully recalled what went wrong.
"Wen Yujun thinks—" Dan Qing was thrown to the ground by Wen Yu, and without even bothering to get up, he couldn't hold it in any longer. "Tanming Island is an uninhabited place? Kui Xuan is a useless piece of shit?"
