"Brother, do you think I lied to you?"
Lu Qiling tilted her head and looked at Shen Lanhua with hurt eyes.
She trusted and relied on her most, and the senior brother she grew up with doubted her because of a female foundation-building cultivator.
"No." Shen Lanhua sighed.
He knew what kind of person his junior sister was, so he had to be more cautious and not allow others to lead her astray.
"Qi Ling, you have been smart since you were a child. Whether you are practicing or doing other things, you are always one step ahead of others. You have never made Master and I worry. But," he paused, "sometimes you are too impatient and treat me like this. Your practice is of no benefit."
Although she always looked cold, as a senior brother, how could he not know.
"After you leave the secret realm, go and see your aunt. I haven't seen you for many years, so I think my aunt misses you too. Don't worry about the power of heaven."
His eyes moved to the white fox, "Senior brother and master will not harm you."
Qingze became angry when he heard this.
He worked so hard to gain the power of heaven for them, but in the end he was no longer human inside and out, right?
He was lucky that he didn't have a contract with Shen Lanhua, otherwise Shen Lanhua's attitude of being indifferent would have angered him to death.
Lu Qiling's expression changed, and she finally responded in a low voice, "I understand."
The aunt Shen Lanhua mentioned was Lu Qiling's mother. She was originally a mortal medical woman. She later escaped with Lu Qiling. After her spiritual roots were detected, she worshiped in the Valley of Forgetting Worry.
*
South of the secret realm.
Thunder roared, and black mist mixed with foul smell spread across the entire valley, billowing above the valley.
The black mist covered the place, making it difficult to see even one’s fingers.
Ji Changan ran as hard as he could, thunder and lightning with thick arms opening the way in front.
When the foul smell touched the thunder and lightning, he immediately shrank back. Within his sight, the charred land was exposed, and even a few scattered weeds were completely black.
The more I looked, the more frightened I became, wondering where they had wandered into by mistake.
Why is there such a place in the secret realm? !
On his back, the unconscious Yun Yan frowned, cold sweat dripping down, and Ji Changan could feel the blood from his heart soaking through his cassock.
"Brother Yun Yan, hold on, we will be out soon!"
He was very scared in his heart, but there was no one who could provide him with support, so he could only press forward with all the strength in his heart.
The group of savages from the island were also monks who were transported there. There were hurricanes and sea beasts on the island, so that they were trapped for several months.
Just after escaping from the island, they encountered an eighth-level monster and their group was scattered.
He and Brother Yun Yan were thinking of walking north. Although they encountered some monsters on the way, they were not of a high level.
When I walked into the valley, I saw some spiritual grass inside and wanted to come in and pick some. Unexpectedly, the scenery inside changed.
A dark thing rushed out of nowhere and wanted to attack them. Although they escaped, Brother Yunyan was seriously injured and fell into a coma.
Ji Changan blamed himself, if only he could react faster.
After experiments, he has discovered that everything here, whether dead or alive, is afraid of lightning strikes.
"Chang'an..."
A weak voice came from behind, Ji Changan shivered and said happily: "Brother Yunyan, you're awake!"
Yun Yan raised his hand and pressed his shoulder, "To the west...there is a cave there...go and rest..."
The hand holding him was weak, and Ji Changan's head jumped. Brother Yun Yan was afraid that something was not going well.
"good."
He nodded heavily and fought off the sudden black shadow behind him, stepping on the wind.
When they arrived at the place Yun Yan mentioned, Ji Changan had already lost all his strength. He swallowed the last spirit-reviving pill and sealed the entrance of the cave with thunder. He hurriedly went to check on Yun Yan's condition.
Yun Yan took out a spirit bead, and the cave was instantly illuminated, exposing Ji Changan's pale face.
Ji Changan quickly took out the hemostatic pill from his sleeve and handed it to Yun Yan's mouth.
"Brother Yun Yan, I have a few more hemostatic pills here. You should take them first."
"It's useless." Yun Yan shook his head, his palms trembling behind his back. "The black mist here is the evil spirit. The evil spirit has entered the body. It must..." He took a breath, "It must be forced out..."
If you don't force it out, your meridians and body will be eroded by evil spirits sooner or later. Not only will you become a useless person, but you may even become a unconscious puppet.
"Then what should we do..." The hand holding the hemostatic pill froze, and Ji Changan's eyes were slightly red.
"correct!"
He suddenly remembered that since thunder spirit power could restrain evil spirits, he could help Brother Yunyan get rid of the evil spirits in his body.
Whatever he could think of, Yun Yan could naturally think of it too.
"I'm not going back to the elixir either..."
Ji Changan is only at the sixth level of Qi training now, and that little spiritual power is not enough to force out the evil spirits in his body.
As for Ji Changan, who has no spiritual power, there is only one outcome.
die!
Sitting up with support on the ground, Yun Yan said: "You can go...there is still a chance of survival if you go out."
What he had on him would hold him up for a while.
"No……"
As soon as Ji Changan opened his mouth, he was interrupted by Yun Yan, "Go find your sister, she might have a way to save me."
After saying that, Yun Yan smiled slightly and said, "My life is on your side."
"elder brother!"
Yun Yan reached out with difficulty and patted his shoulder, "Go, you can find her. I taught you to use blood as a guide."
"By the way, seal the entrance of the cave when you leave. Your thunder spirit will be very useful."
Under Yun Yan's urging gaze, Ji Changan turned back step by step.
Both of them knew that even if they knew the location, the secret realm was so big that it would be troublesome to find someone.
What's more, his blood... seems useless.
Sister, not related to him by blood.
Seeing Ji Changan disappear and the entrance of the cave being sealed, Yun Yan let out a breath and let his body slide down.
He probably didn't break his promise.
In the sea of consciousness, a voice chattered endlessly.
"Are you stupid? That kid has the power of thunder. Only with him are you safe. Even if the devil enters your body, I can't save you."
That voice hated the iron, "Your father died when the evil spirit entered his body, and now you are going to follow in his footsteps. Both of you, father and son, are the same and cannot be saved!"
"granduncle."
Yun Yan looked at the top of the cave, "Did my father really die because of evil spirits entering his body?"
The voice in the sea of consciousness paused, and then exploded, "Instead of being killed by a demon evil spirit entering the body, how could it be caused by me? Yun Yan, don't bully me just because I have a good temper. I am still your uncle after all!"
Knowing that he deliberately misinterpreted his meaning, Yun Yan smiled.
There is indeed something strange about my father's death.
Decades ago, demon cultivators were forced to retreat to Fanjing City, and Zhongzhou even saw a demon cultivator and a demon cultivator.
How could his father die because of the demon cultivator? Even if the demon evil spirit entered his body, as the Jindan master of Qingya Sect, couldn't he find a monk with thunder spirit root to eliminate the demon evil spirit for him?
"I know you have doubts about your father's death, but people die when they die, and there is no point in checking these things. What he wants to see most is that you grow up healthily, not because he is unhappy."
The old voice spoke earnestly.
The only junior in his family, he didn't want him to know those dirty things.
