"It's nothing serious. I'm just injured a little. I've been in bed recently..." Qin Bo replied, his smile becoming forced.
Injured a little and have been in bed to recuperate? Not to mention Xiao Yutang, even Gu Qingxi's eyes became strange.
Although the Xiao family is not as powerful as the four major demon cultivating families, the gap is not too big. The cultivation level of the eldest elder of the Xiao family should have reached the state of integration, but he was just injured, how could he stay in bed to recuperate?
"Forget it, forget it, you'd better go and see Yutang by yourself. The Great Elder has been waiting for you to come back and said he wants to explain something to you. If he doesn't explain it clearly, he won't be able to rest in peace..." Qin Bo himself also noticed Realizing that such inconsistent answers would only make people more worried, he waved his hands and said no more.
Well, these words were confusing. The more I heard them, the more they sounded like my last words, which made people even more worried.
Before he could finish speaking, Xiao Yutang quickly ran towards the great elder's residence.
"Yutang, don't worry. The elder is fine. There is still time to explain a few words." Seeing Xiao Yutang being so anxious, Qin Bo quickly consoled him loudly.
But is this really comfort? The great elder only had time to say a few last words, and he still said he was fine?
Upon hearing this, Xiao Yutang became even faster.
"Alas, this child is just short-tempered and can't change it even when he gets older. He makes the girl laugh." Qin Bo shook his head and said, looking at Xiao Yutang's hurried away back, it was like looking at his naughty grandson. Sons and great-grandchildren, their eyes are even more loving.
Gu Qingxi curled her lips: Can you blame Xiao Yutang for being impatient? Even an outsider like me is almost scared to death by you. Would it be weird if he wasn't in a hurry?
On the way here, she once heard Xiao Yutang say: When he was three years old, his parents went out for training and never came back, so he was actually raised by the elder.
The great elder never married and always treated him as his biological grandson.
Now that he has grown up, Xiao Yutang has very little impression of his parents. For him, the closest person in the world is the great elder.
"By the way, the girl is not a child of the Xiao family, right? I don't know what to call her?" Just when Gu Qingxi was secretly cursing, Qin Bo bowed politely and asked.
"Uncle Qin, there is no need to be polite. I am Xiao Yutang's friend, Gu Qingxi." Gu Qingxi returned the courtesy and said.
She was slanderous, but she still maintained due respect for such an old man with gray hair and beard.
"Gu Qingxi from the Benevolent Heart Alliance and the True Pill Alliance?" Qin Bo just heard people talking about Xiao Yutang's return, so he immediately went out to greet him, but he didn't hear a word about what happened next, and he was shocked when he heard that.
"Yes, that's me." Gu Qingxi nodded, not surprised that Qin Bo had heard of her "famous name".
After all, it has been a long time since the competition between the Renxin Alliance and the Demon Doctor Alliance, and her name should have spread.
Maybe some cultivating families or demonic cultivating families who feel superior to others still don't take her seriously, but a family like the Xiao family with a long history and a deeper foundation than the four major demonic cultivating families, how could they be like them? How could he ignore her existence if he was short-sighted?
Not only Qin Bo, but Xiao Yujin had also heard of her name.
"So you are Master Gu, why didn't Yutang tell me earlier!" Qin Bo stomped his feet heavily, pulled Gu Qingxi and chased after Xiao Yutang.
The realm of unity! Only then did Gu Qingxi realize that this Qin Bo was actually a strong man in the realm of fusion.
Although Xiao Yutang was anxious and ran with all his strength, Qin Bo was stronger and caught up with him after just a few ups and downs. The three of them arrived at an ancient and quiet courtyard at the same time.
Two young men with worried faces were guarding the door. When they saw Xiao Yutang coming, they both cheered up and said happily: "Second Young Master, you are finally back."
Xiao Yutang asked anxiously: "How is the great elder?"
The two young men looked at each other and replied worriedly: "His old man is fine now, but he just refused to wait for you..."
Before he finished speaking, he heard a slightly impatient voice coming from the courtyard: "Elder Xiao, although your cultivation level is good, this injury can only be suppressed for a while, but not for a lifetime. If you don't treat it as soon as possible, With the nine-turn soul-stealing technique, your soul will be lost sooner or later, and you will never be able to regain your clarity."
Hearing these words, Xiao Yutang's expression changed drastically.
The young man didn't need to say anything more, he already knew what was going on.
It turned out that the great elder had injured his soul, but he refused to receive treatment in order to wait for his return.
But to what extent does the soul have to be injured before the nine-turn soul-stealing technique is needed?
As we all know, because the method of cultivation is more cruel, demon cultivators are more mentally tough than immortal monks on the one hand, but on the other hand, they are more likely to breed inner demons and harm their souls.
And once the soul is injured, it is more difficult to heal than the immortal monks.
The nine-turn soul-stealing technique is a medical technique unique to demon cultivators. It is used to heal damaged souls with miraculous effects.
However, this medical skill is similar to the cultivation method of demon cultivator, which is domineering, cruel and eccentric. If it is used on the bodies of Immortal Sect monks, any problem will be cured, and those with problems will be put to death directly.
Even if it is used on demon cultivators, it is still dangerous. It is said that out of a hundred demon cultivators whose souls were injured, less than thirty could be cured. At least seventy souls were extinguished and were forcibly cured into the living dead.
Therefore, if the soul had not been severely injured and was really desperate, the demon cultivator would not easily use this medical skill.
Not to mention Xiao Yutang, even Gu Qingxi was secretly frightened when he heard the words "Nine Turns of Soul Seizing Technique".
As far as she knew, the success rate of the nine-turn soul-stealing technique was actually less than 30%. Because among those who were cured, at least half of their souls could no longer improve.
You know, after your cultivation reaches the point of becoming a god, the soul will become more and more important. If the soul cannot be improved, it is basically impossible to improve at all.
So strictly speaking, the success rate of the nine-turn soul-stealing technique is actually only 10% at most.
It seemed that Qin Bo's words just now were not completely alarmist. If Xiao Yutang never came back and allowed that man to use the nine-turn soul-stealing technique on the great elder, he might not even have the chance to confess his last words.
But who is that person, who actually knows the art of nine-turn soul-stealing? This magical medical skill is too difficult to practice. I heard that no one in the world of cultivation has learned it for thousands of years.
"Great Elder!" Gu Qingxi was secretly guessing that Xiao Yutang had already pushed open the courtyard door and rushed in.
"Yutang, you're back." In front of the main door, a tall old man with a haggard face was leaning on the door frame, looking at Xiao Yutang, with a happy smile on his face.
This old man is the eldest elder of the Xiao family: Xiao Ningyuan.
"Great Elder, why didn't you send a message to me immediately when you were injured?" Seeing that the Great Elder was able to hold on for the time being, at least the situation was not as critical as Qin Bo said, Xiao Yutang breathed a sigh of relief and complained.
"It is inevitable for a cultivator to get hurt, so why bother with your business." Xiao Ningyuan said with a smile.
Although he said it in an understatement, Xiao Yutang's eyes instantly became moist when he heard this.
