Chapter 203 Yin Hua Water
On the fourth day, as the last glimmer of light disappeared and the sky fell completely into darkness, Ji Rong was awakened by Qing Guangzi knocking on the door.
Ji Rong was standing outside Shan Wu's room, preparing to nurture the Mountain and Water God who had been unearthed inside.
Hearing shouts outside, she listened intently.
Upon hearing that the visitor was Qing Guangzi, Ji Rong immediately gave Shan Wu, who had opened the door for her, a meaningful look, instructing him to bury the Mountain and Water God back into the ground. She then asked, "What brings you here, Master? Why are you looking for me so late?"
Qing Guangzi said cheerfully in a loud voice, "The Palace Mistress of Yueyin Palace is here today. My senior brother asked me to take you there so you can drink the Yin Hua Water together."
"Yin Hua Water?" Upon hearing that it was food, and something she had never tasted before, Ji Rong immediately sobered up. She shouted, "Senior brother, wait for me!"
She walked slowly, and only after Shan Wu had hidden the Mountain and Water God did she leisurely open the door, yawning and saying, "Senior brother, isn't this too late?"
At that moment, Kiyohiro's eyes shone brightly in the darkness.
He waved his hoof at Ji Rong and said, "It's not late, it's not late. For Yuanjun, this time is like the early morning. Come with me quickly."
As he led Ji Rong up the summit of Jade Void Peak, he spoke of the Primordial Sovereign to her.
Yuanjun sleeps during the day and only wakes at night. He is like the reverse side of Xizhu, a primordial deity.
This Yin Hua Water is a unique product generated by the authority He wields. It is extremely cool and nourishing, and is a favorite delicacy of cultivators practicing the Dark Path, as well as alien species like Qing Guangzi who can control minds.
Yin Hua water can also be used to make medicine and pills.
Ordinary cultivators who drink Yin Hua Water can gain a certain degree of Unwavering Power.
Qingpingzi already knew that Ji Rong had a clean background, but her cultivation level was really low compared to that of Qingpingzi and the other old monsters who had lived for many years.
Seeing his junior brother Qing Guangzi casting spells on his junior sister Ji, Qing Pingzi felt that this trend should be stopped at its source.
Since Qingpingzi wanted to acknowledge Ji Rong as his junior sister, he naturally had to give her a cup of Yin Hua Water to nourish and strengthen her soul.
This would allow her to run away when facing a cultivator like Qing Guangzi casting spells, preventing Qing Guangzi from using his special talent to target the low-level Ji Ronglian from time to time.
Which cultivator doesn't have secrets? If one day this junior sister really lies and her junior brother can't resist eating her, that would be a real scandal, and the cultivators of the Pill Pavilion would probably all run away because of it.
There is no moon tonight, because the moon has already reached the summit of Yuxu Mountain.
Thick clouds and mist concealed the true form of the Goddess, making it impossible for any light to see from the outside.
Ji Rong saw from afar atop the cloud-covered cliff a beautiful woman radiating a soft, cold light, shining brightly in the darkness.
Meanwhile, the palace master, Qingpingzi, was unusually seated on the cloud-shaped table.
A large group of tiny, winged, dragonfly-like figures danced around Yuanjun.
Upon seeing Ji Rong and Qing Pingzi arrive, Yuan Jun waved to the little figures, and two shimmering little figures immediately flapped their wings and came to Ji Rong and Qing Pingzi's side.
They guided them up the cloud-covered cliffs like lanterns.
Upon reaching the Cloud Cliff, Ji Rong discovered that there were not only radiant beauties on it, but also a table made of clouds. The table was filled with rare fruits and elixirs that Ji Rong had never seen before, as well as a large jar of fragrant water that rippled with milky white light.
This beauty was also strangely beautiful; she had a pair of dark green, vertical pupils, evenly distributed on both sides of her face.
There is also a pair of relatively slender, black, horizontal pupils, hanging above the vertical pupils like eyebrows.
Its pinkish-white tongue was long and pointed, hanging down like silk; its ears were pointed and erect, pressed against its sides.
He has six hands, but tonight, only one pair is shining; the others are completely black.
The Yuanjun was dressed in a skirt, so it was impossible to see how many feet she had, but her figure seemed boneless. Ji Rong, sitting below, thought to herself, "This Yuanjun must have no feet."
As Ji Rong thought this, she indeed saw Yuan Jun hugging a large jar with her two tails and saying, "Qing Pingzi, you'll have to work hard again this time."
Then, He handed the large jar to Qingpingzi. It shimmered with golden light. Ji Rongruo would recognize it, for it was the source of all things, and the only food she recognized that night.
Qing Guangzi sat with Ji Rong at the lower end of the table, listening to Qing Pingzi and Yuan Jun discuss the matter of using that source to refine elixirs.
After Ji Rong and Qing Guangzi were seated, Qing Pingzi smiled and said to Yuan Jun, "Junior Sister Ji has improved my shortcomings in alchemy. Otherwise, I wouldn't be able to refine this pill for you."
"I summoned her here today specifically so that Yuanjun would treat her to a pot of Yin Hua Water to strengthen her spirit. Yuanjun, please don't be stingy."
The Primordial Lord nodded, his long tongue flying through the air as he spoke in a gentle voice: "That is natural."
As soon as Yuanjun finished speaking, a rustling sound came from under her skirt.
Two tails covered in tiny scales emerged from under Yuanjun's skirt, each curling up an empty jar on the table.
Yuanjun's four eyes emitted a soft, cold light towards the dark sky, and then some glittering things began to appear out of thin air.
Upon seeing this, the glowing little figures immediately flapped their wings and began to collect the light from all directions.
Like bees, they collect the scavenged materials and put them into jars. Once one jar is full, they move on to another.
Once all the shiny things had been collected, they all flew back, buzzing towards Yuanjun.
The second jar was only a little over half full.
Upon seeing this, Yuanjun raised one hand towards the jar filled with Yin Hua water, and a shimmering ball of water rose up with her hand.
Yuanjun handed the water ball to the largest of the little people, and Ji Rong saw the group of little people with two pairs of wings surround the water ball and suck on it.
Then, Yuanjun rolled up the two jars and said to Qingguangzi with satisfaction, "Your Daoist practice site is so serene, and the Yin energy is so abundant."
Then, He handed the jar with more liquid to Qing Guangzi and the jar with less liquid to Ji Rong, saying, "You two, drink up."
Ji Rong and Qing Guangzi each accepted the jar of Yin Hua Water. While Qing Guangzi was still expressing his gratitude, Ji Rong had already grabbed the jar with his wing claws and started drinking it in large gulps.
"What a waste!" Kiyoshi thought to himself as he watched Ji Rong eat with no manners. He, on the other hand, took out a small cup and slowly drank from it, cup by cup.
Seeing that the two of them were enjoying their drinks, Qingpingzi and Yuanjun also joined in.
For a moment, amidst the soft sounds of eating and drinking on the cloud cliff, the sound of a bird cultivator swallowing water in large gulps was particularly loud.
Ji Rong finished her jar whole and then stared longingly at Qing Guangzi's jar. Qing Guangzi had heterochromia, and even when he was weak, few cultivators dared to stare at him because of his talent.
And now, Ji Rong stared longingly at her jar of Yin Hua Water.
