After finally seeing off the city defenders, Rui Wenyue returned to her room exhausted. She had just closed the door when she suddenly noticed an uninvited guest in her room.
And this uninvited person turned out to be her master, Su Yu, whom she hadn't seen for a long time.
Su Yu was meditating on the couch with his eyes closed. Rui Wenyue was shocked by him at first, but she felt relieved when she saw that it was her master.
"Really, you came here suddenly without saying a word." Rui Wenyue muttered, poured herself a cup of tea and drank it in one gulp. The bitter taste of the tea forced her to swallow it with a frown.
After all, the drinks she drank at Zhushen Temple and Xuanji Pavilion were countless times better than those at Fusheng Restaurant, and the tea at Guo Shen's place was really fragrant, like tasting fairy tea.
"I got the ambergris." Su Yu opened his eyes at some point and startled Rui Wenyue again when he opened his mouth.
"Master, you are too elusive." Rui Wenyue complained dissatisfiedly.
"Last time you sent me a message about the devil egg. This matter is not trivial. I must come here in person." Su Yu didn't feel there was any problem with his choice.
"Where is the deviled egg now?"
Rui Wenyue said dejectedly: "Don't mention it, the devil egg grew legs and ran away. Also, the ghost book in my body suddenly fell asleep."
Thinking of Qianjue, Rui Wenyue had another headache. If Qianjue could not be awakened, then it would be wishful thinking to completely eliminate the demonic energy from the bodies of those three unlucky men.
"Is the magic book asleep?" Su Yu's brows furrowed slightly, and a ray of consciousness spread out from his fingers and penetrated into Rui Wenyue's sea of consciousness. After a moment, Su Yu withdrew his hand.
"It's not asleep, it's sealed." Su Yu's eyes flashed with deep meaning.
"Seal! Why didn't I feel it at all!" Rui Wenyue's expression changed. Someone had sealed the Soul Book in her sea of consciousness, but she didn't notice it at all!
"It's a magic seal, of course you don't know. The magic egg and the magic book are connected spiritually, and it's just a thought on his part to seal the magic book." Su Yu explained.
Rui Wenyue felt dissatisfied. She had gone through all the trouble to seal the magic book in her body, but she didn't expect that the magic egg could still easily control the magic book. Then her efforts would have been in vain.
"Then is there any way to awaken the grimoire now?"
"Did you wake up the magic book to save Jiang Qing?" Su Yu was a little surprised that his apprentice had such good intentions?
"Not just for Jiang Qing, but also for Chu Fang and Mu Yao. They are all contaminated by demonic energy. I can't let them be controlled by demons." Rui Wenyue argued.
"But what does this have to do with you?"
"I was born between heaven and earth, so I naturally have the responsibility to protect all living things in the world." Rui Wenyue immediately retorted, but she vaguely felt that something was wrong with what she said.
"As a mortal, what do you think of the world's responsibilities?" Su Yu's tone was not mocking, but a serious question.
This sentence really stopped her. If she was born with a divine body, as the child of the ancestral god, she was supported by heaven and earth, and she was naturally responsible for the creatures of heaven and earth.
But now she is just a mortal. When it comes to protecting the Three Realms, it is never the turn of an unknown little person like her.
Rui Wenyue shook her head and said: "Although there is no answer, it is not a wrong thing."
Su Yu pursed her lips and said nothing. In Su Yu's eyes, she still put everything on her shoulders as she did a million years ago, so she looked very mature at a young age.
Now that I have become a mortal, I still cannot forget those responsibilities. But does she still remember all the truth about that year? Su Yu's eyes were a little complicated.
He always felt that Jiang Yue was the reincarnated Rui Wenyue, but now it seemed that she still maintained the same divine character as before.
"If you want to awaken the ghost magic book, you can only rely on yourself. When you go to the embankment abyss and find a place with the strongest demonic energy called the Demon Horn Cave. There, you can try to introduce the magic energy and awaken the ghost demon Code." After the two were silent for a long time, Su Yu said this suddenly.
When Rui Wenyue reacted again, the room was empty and Su Yu had left.
"Tch, what's the mystery? He came and left suddenly." Rui Wenyue snorted coldly, expressing her disdain.
Now that she already knows the way to awaken the Soul Book, she can ask Kizawa to set off to the Embankment Abyss tomorrow. Rui Wenyue thought of the ambergris she just got today, and quickly took out two things from the mustard bag and put them on the table.
Zhizhi also woke up and climbed out of the mustard bag curiously.
Rui Wenyue looked at the round and cold dragon egg in front of her, and stroked the tip of the egg lovingly.
"Master, master, this dragon egg is cold, just like me." Rui Wenyue usually hid the dragon egg in another mustard bag, so Zhizhi had never seen this dragon egg.
Rui Wenyue opened the bottle of ambergris saliva and put a drop of it on the egg. In just a moment, the drop of ambergris saliva was completely absorbed by the egg.
She didn't hesitate at all, and immediately attracted the power of the void mixed with the spiritual energy of her ice spiritual roots to wrap the dragon egg.
If you want to hatch a storm dragon's egg, you must feed it with ambergris saliva every day and take care of it every day with ice spiritual power. But the hatching time of the dragon egg is uncertain, so Rui Wenyue can only irrigate it like this every day until it hatches.
Zhizhi sat aside obediently and watched Rui Wenyue doing these things seriously. In Rui Wenyue's eyes, it seemed to see the look on its owner's eyes.
Involuntarily, round pieces of ice fell drop by drop.
After Rui Wenyue carefully put the dragon egg back into the mustard bag, she discovered something strange about Xue Ling. Before Rui Wenyue could ask anything, Xueling's hair suddenly stood up and she squeaked: "Master! Master's smell!"
"What? You smell the master's scent? Hurry, let's chase him!" Rui Wenyue held Zhizhi in her arms, pushed open the window and jumped.
Zhizhi pointed the direction of the road to Rui Wenyue, and Rui Wenyue followed it to the place he said.
After a while, Rui Wenyue saw a black figure not far away walking on the roof in the dark night.
Originally, Rui Wenyue thought that catching up with him would be a simple matter, but after a few ups and downs, Rui Wenyue actually gradually fell behind him.
This person's cultivation level must be above hers, Rui Wenyue thought to herself. This person is definitely not a cheap person, but with such strength, why did he seal Zhizhi in the sword in the first place?
Rui Wenyue used the power of the void to the extreme, even using the power of space at this moment, and finally caught up with the black figure after half a cup of tea.
"Stop!" Rui Wenyue shouted coldly. The man turned his head, and a surprised and familiar face suddenly appeared in front of Rui Wenyue.
