"Where are you going?"
"I don't know. She said she wanted to go out to explore and see the outside world, but she didn't say where exactly she was going." Liang Qing said a little disappointed.
"I see."
When Lu Li heard this, he could only wish that innocent little girl good luck. In the world of casual cultivators, even Lu Li himself was walking on thin ice, let alone that inexperienced little girl.
Liang Qing glanced at the courtyard door behind Lu Li, "Senior, would you like to go in and take a look?"
"No, I have something else to do, so I won't stay here for long."
Lu Li said and stood up, "By the way, where is Xiaopi, where has he gone?"
"Xiaopi went to Moon God Palace, but he didn't come back for some years."
"Is the Moon God Palace the same Moon God Palace that suddenly appeared decades ago?" Lu Li asked in surprise.
"Well, due to some special reasons, Xiaopi was not able to enter the temple, but now that I think about it, joining the Moon God Palace is also a good choice. If it develops well, maybe he can become a veteran there."
Liang Qing's eyes lit up a bit as he spoke, and he seemed to have great hopes for his son.
Afterwards, Lu Li chatted with Liang Qing for a while, then took out his spirit boat and left Jiwei Island.
Winter five years later.
Lu Li finally slowly returned to the Wuju Sea.
It wasn't that he encountered any trouble, but that during the return process, Lu Li went to visit several level four islands and bought a lot of elixir seeds and some common elixir recipes, which cost him a lot of time.
At this time, although the area of his medicine garden has dropped back to 6,500 miles, at a glance, it is full of vitality and the fragrance of elixirs is everywhere.
He planned to improve his alchemy level before the auction, refine a batch of elixirs and earn some spiritual stones to prepare for the purchase of the God Transformation elixir.
"Hey, master, you have recovered?!"
As soon as Lu Li's spirit boat landed, Tang Fei flew down from the stone wall cave and looked at Lu Li with a surprised look on his face.
"Well, how's it going? Are you handsome?" Lu Li touched his chin and grinned.
"Handsome! This disciple has never seen someone as handsome as you, Master." Tang Fei said very seriously.
"Haha, you are interesting, why...didn't you practice today?"
"This disciple has been feeling restless these past few days, so he has not practiced."
"Uneasy?"
Lu Li looked Tang Fei up and down, frowned and said, "Didn't I give you the Bingxin Calming Technique, but it was useless?"
Tang Fei shook his head, "It's useless. I don't know why, but I always feel that the Ice Heart Concentration Technique is very ineffective. Sometimes, not only does it have no effect, it actually makes me even more upset."
"There is such a thing."
Lu Li pondered for a moment, "Oh... I remembered it. I will ask Mu Xiao for some live heart leaves for you later. That thing is very effective and may be useful."
After chatting for a few words, Lu Li asked Tang Fei to return to the cave first.
There is only one cave on the cliff to the west, which is Mu Xiao's residence.
There was a narrow platform in front of the cave door. Lu Li landed lightly on the platform and gently pressed the communication mechanism.
But after waiting for a while, the cave door showed no intention of opening. Lu Li pressed it again, but after waiting for a while, the cave door still did not open.
"Aren't you at home?"
Seeing this situation, Lu Li prepared to come back another day to take a look.
But just when he was about to leave, the stone door opened slightly, and a young man in a green shirt appeared behind the door, it was Mu Xiao.
However, Mu Xiao seemed to be in a bad state at this time.
Not only was his face very pale, but his whole body was still covered in wisps of oppressive black energy.
"This is devilish energy!"
Lu Li stared at Mu Xiao in disbelief. He had not seen demonic energy for many years since he came to the Xuanling Realm.
Mu Xiao looked at Lu Li, with a flash of confusion at first, and then said in a hoarse voice, "Are you, Senior Lu?"
Lu Li nodded, "What's going on with you? How come you have demonic energy on your body?"
Hearing this, Mu Xiao became obviously panicked, "Senior, you, you are wrong. This... this is not demonic energy, just evil energy."
Demonic energy and evil spirit have similarities and differences.
The same thing is that both demonic and evil spirits contain a lot of resentment and hostility.
The difference is.
Demonic energy can usually only be absorbed and controlled by demons. Just like the spiritual energy and spiritual stones absorbed by human monks, demonic cultivation relies on absorbing demonic energy and magic crystals.
The evil spirit is something that some evil monks like, usually coming from the blood of various creatures.
Mu Xiao's excuse was probably because he wanted to say that he was not a demon.
Lu Li narrowed his eyes after hearing this, "You don't need to explain, I can still distinguish between demonic energy and evil energy! Why don't you tell the truth, where does the demonic energy in your body come from? I am not that ruthless person." Man, this matter may not be irreversible, but if you want to fool me, don’t blame me for being ruthless."
Hearing this, Mu Xiao's expression immediately seemed hesitant.
Lu Li was not in a hurry and just stared at Mu Xiao.
After a moment, Mu Xiao smiled bitterly: "Senior, come in and talk."
"You should just say it here. I don't dare to underestimate you until the matter is clarified." Lu Li said with a half-smile.
"Okay, senior, please wait a moment."
After Mu Xiao finished speaking, she walked back to the room and brought out a cup of green tea, walked back, and then took a big sip by herself.
Under Lu Li's gaze, much of Mu Xiao's demonic energy disappeared in an instant.
Mu Xiao did not stop and took two more sips. Until she drank all the green tea in the cup and the demonic energy in her body was almost gone, she said, "Senior, if you want to know anything, just ask."
Lu Li's eyes flashed with strange color: "Can this living heart leaf suppress the evil energy?"
"Yes, but it can only be suppressed, not eliminated." Mu Xiao said helplessly.
Hearing this, Lu Li felt a little relieved, "Then where does the devilish energy in you come from?"
Mu Xiao hesitated for a moment, "Senior, can you keep a secret for me?"
Lu Li frowned and said calmly: "If you are not a real demon, I have no interest in meddling in these nosy matters, and I will not reveal your information to outsiders."
"Senior, you can rest assured on this point. I, Mu Xiao, can swear to God that I am not a real demon. I am just haunted by demonic energy that cannot be expelled for the time being."
"Tell me, where does the demonic energy in your body come from?" Lu Li asked again.
"It's my original world, which has been completely occupied by the demons. All of our people have become lambs raised by the demons, waiting to be slaughtered at any time."
As Mu Xiao spoke, he clenched his fists unconsciously, looking very painful and resentful:
"The ancestors of our clan endured humiliation for thousands of years and finally found an opportunity to open up a way for us to survive by sacrificing our souls, allowing us descendants to escape from that world..."
