In the thatched hut, Mu Yunqing came back and calmed down, closing his eyes and concentrating.
Her breathing was long and even, and she was immersed in deep meditation.
But she still felt frustrated.
Originally, the remaining Hehuan Powder in her body was like a poisonous snake lurking in her body, but the medicinal materials in Yaowang Valley were good, and with their help, the injuries she suffered from Ji Yao's sneak attack when she broke through gradually stabilized, so her cultivation was consolidated quickly.
Yesterday, I had quietly recovered to the early stage of Nascent Soul. Once my cultivation has stabilized, I can try to remove the medicinal properties of the Hehuan Powder from my body.
But damn, last night, He Huan San suddenly went out of control, and after being forced to practice dual cultivation with Ji Yao...
The level of cultivation dropped suddenly!
In just one night, he fell two major realms and reached the middle stage of Golden Core.
Otherwise, why wouldn't that sword in the morning have taken Ji Yao's life!
At this moment, her eyes were like dark clouds covering the sun, and her depth revealed a hint of unwillingness and resentment.
The method of practicing Hehuan Powder is indeed weird. No wonder those with high level of cultivation will never be able to make progress once they become a furnace. Even if they escape back, their foundation will be damaged and they will become useless.
What about her? If this continues, will she...
Even the Immortal Master Yun Qing felt somewhat disappointed and frustrated at this moment.
Her thoughts couldn't help but drift away - had the sect noticed her disappearance?
Although the Lingxiao Sect's Immortal Sect Competition will not be affected by her absence, it can be said that she is in seclusion to break through.
But I was afraid that those people in the Hehuan Sect with sharp eyes and ears would find out that I was trapped by the Hehuan Powder and start searching for me everywhere.
How long can I hide in this Medicine King Valley?
Furthermore, if this Hehuan Powder breaks out again and again, I am afraid that even if I am extremely reluctant, I will eventually become Ji Yao's furnace cauldron.
By then, all the gains from cultivation will be used to help others!
Mu Yunqing looked at her own hands - if that time really came...
Just as these thoughts were surging like a tide, a slight knocking sound outside the window interrupted her meditation.
Ji Yao's voice was as thin as a mosquito, with some hesitation and trepidation: "Master... Master, I have something to discuss with you."
Mu Yunqing's eyes froze instantly, like a thousand-year-old ice, revealing a barely perceptible coldness: "Speak."
Seeing this, Ji Yao quickly spoke, speaking rapidly, as if eager to express her feelings: "Master, in fact, I want to go to the Hehuan Sect..."
Before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by Mu Yunqing's sneer, and the air seemed to freeze.
Ji Yao hurriedly added, her tone full of sincerity: "Disciple definitely does not want to escape, I just want to get the herbs for the antidote of Hehuan Powder, thinking of detoxifying Master."
Mu Yunqing didn't say anything, and Ji Yao continued to defend herself: "I always remember my mistakes, and now I sincerely repent. I vow to help Master escape this predicament and relieve the suffering of Hehuan Powder."
There was no sound from Mu Yunqing in the room. Ji Yao became even more nervous and her words became less and less controlled.
"Master, let me be frank. If I really intended to refine you by force, there are many ways to do it. Why would I have to do this...ah!" Her words were sincere, but she stopped abruptly at the end.
A sharp sword energy suddenly approached, making people feel uneasy.
Ji Yao looked up suddenly and saw Mu Yunqing's sword "Wangshu" hanging in front of her nose, flashing with cold light, like a kiss of death.
She couldn't dodge in time, her expression full of fear and helplessness: "Master, please trust me, just once..."
The sword did not move forward, but froze in the air, followed by Mu Yunqing's cold but majestic voice: "In that case, let's go together!"
Why are you so stubborn!
Ji Yao's heart suddenly tightened, and she shouted hastily, ignoring her sword, "Master, you must not do this!"
In the Lingxiao Sect, there is Immortal Yun Qing, who is known as the most talented and almost mythical being. If he really steps into the threshold of the Hehuan Sect, wouldn't that be like sending a pure and flawless lamb into the mouth of a tiger or a wolf?
Once this news leaks out, she, a little Camilla, won't be able to protect the Immortal Lord from harm in the Hehuan Sect.
What's more, the people in the Hehuan Sect are very powerful. If Immortal Yun Qing falls into their hands and suffers humiliation, how can I, the culprit, stay safe and not be affected?
Isn't this another dead end?
Ji Yao was anxious and almost blurted out: "But didn't Master already give me poison? The kind of poison that will kill me if I don't ask you for the antidote! What else do you have to worry about? If you are really discovered in the Hehuan Sect, I... I really can't protect you..."
At this moment, the atmosphere in the room was solemn, and the air seemed to be frozen.
Suddenly, the door was pushed open with a creaky sound, and Mu Yunqing walked out slowly. Her voice was cold and firm, like a snow lotus blooming in the ice: "Let's go together!"
This is not a question, but an unquestionable decision.
Upon hearing this, Ji Yao couldn't help but smile bitterly, thinking that his head was really going bald.
"Master, can we take a long-term view? We can always find a better way."
Do you really think that everyone in the Hehuan Sect is like me, concerned about you in everything, afraid that you might make any mistake?
However, Mu Yunqing's expression was still as cold as before, and his eyes revealed an unquestionable determination: "I can't believe you! If you refuse to take me there, I will kill you now and then find a way!"
As the words fell, the Wangshu sword poked Ji Yao's nose, chilling her heart.
What a bunch of ancestors.
Ji Yao pursed her lips, a trace of sadness flashed across her eyes, and finally she whispered in a compromised tone: "Okay, whatever you want, my life and death are in your hands anyway."
After that, he turned around and left.
Although the words were so soft that they were almost whispered, for the Immortal Master Yun Qing, who possessed a profound cultivation, every tiny sound could not escape her eardrums.
Hearing this, Mu Yunqing's long eyelashes trembled slightly, and for a moment, an inexplicable feeling of strangeness surged in her heart.
She recalled the conversation between Ji Yao and Lin Bugou just now.
At that time, I was hiding outside the window and heard what Ji Yao said with my own ears.
Even when she was not present, she insisted on explaining to Lin Bugou that the accident happened out of helplessness and the incident of Hehuan Powder was purely unintentional.
For a moment, doubts and confusion surged in my mind: Was Ji Yao really forced?
But in a flash, Mu Yunqing suddenly shook his head and quickly denied the hesitation just now: No, I can't believe it so easily!
The minds of the people of the Hehuan Sect are all unpredictable and they are good at misleading people. Don't trust them easily!
I was almost influenced by her!
Humph, when I get the antidote to Hehuan Powder, the first thing I will do is kill Ji Yao and prove my immortality!
Ji Yao found Lin Bugou who was studying herbs.
She walked gently to Lin Bugou's side, with some hesitation and uneasiness on her face.
"Well, Sister Gou said she wanted to go to the Hehuan Sect with me... I'm so worried."
Lin Bugou stopped fiddling with the things in his hands and glanced at Ji Yao with a teasing look in his eyes: "Hey, it's just a furnace, what's the point of hiding it? Since it has been branded with your mark, who else dares to covet it? Or is her identity... something strange?"
Lin Bugou lowered his voice and said, "Ji Yao, tell me the truth, did you and your 'Lu Ding' secretly steal the sword of Yun Qingxianzun?"
Ji Yao's face was full of innocence and confusion. She quickly shook her head to deny it: "No, there is absolutely no such thing!"
Hearing this, Lin Bugou leaned back, his eyes full of disbelief: "Then why did Yun Qingxianzun's Wangshu Sword appear in her hand? Are you kidding me?"
The corners of Ji Yao's mouth twitched, and she looked a little helpless. She spread her hands and said, "That's her sword!"
"What, what did you say?"
Lin Bugou was so surprised that he almost fell off the chair. He stood up suddenly and hurriedly pushed aside his messy hair: "Immortal Yun Qing? Your...your furnace? Impossible, don't scare me, and don't be so vague, I will have wild thoughts."
Ji Yao nodded slightly, even more frustrated: "Yes, it's exactly what you think."
Seeing this, Lin Bugou was like a pot boiling with anger. He jumped up and paced back and forth excitedly, pointing at Ji Yao with a trembling finger: "Ji Yao, you really are really going to make a splash this time! You, you, you, she, she, she... Oh my god... Yun Qingxianzun from Lingxiao Sect, you let her be your cauldron, you are so bold!"
Ji Yao quickly held Lin Bugou's shoulders, asked her to sit down again, and patiently explained: "I'll say it again, she is not my furnace!"
"I never thought of using her as a cauldron, so I wanted to go back to the Hehuan Sect alone to get the antidote for her, but she wouldn't let me... Anyway, I must detoxify her."
Lin Bugou scratched his disheveled hair, looking unkempt, and asked in confusion, "You are such a contradictory person. If you don't want her to become a furnace, why did you give her the love potion? You want to establish a memorial archway after she becomes a prostitute?"
"You... why are you still cursing at me?"
After Ji Yao was choked, she sighed again, with a complicated expression, and told the story according to her original identity -
"Because I am in a special place like the Hehuan Sect! If I were not in harmony with the others, I would have died long ago. You know it was you who saved me last time."
Lin Bugou was puzzled: "From what you said now, weren't you accepted as a disciple by Immortal Yun Qing? How could her Lingxiao Sect not be able to protect you?"
"Yes, I should have confessed all this to Master a long time ago. Maybe she could help us. But at that time, I was filled with fear. I was afraid that Master would kill me immediately after knowing it. I... I was afraid of death..."
Hearing this, Lin Bugou's expression became solemn. After a moment of silence, he patted Ji Yao's shoulder and said meaningfully, "Yes, you are so afraid of death that you gave Yun Qingxianzun the Hehuan Powder and took advantage of him. Tsk, you are really afraid of death!"
"Oops~"
When Ji Yao heard this, she stamped her feet in anger: "Don't tease me, let's talk business. She wants to go and I can't stop her, so can she change..."
"Where is Ji Yao? Tell her to come out and see me! Otherwise, I will flatten this mountain!" An arrogant voice came from halfway up the hill.
Ji Yao was suddenly as if she were hit by cold water, and her heart trembled: This is clearly Gong Chengjue's voice, why would she follow here?
