Chapter 25: Burning

Jiang Lisheng was secretly complaining in his heart, and his emotions naturally showed on his face.

Ying Zongyu had never seen such an easy-to-understand person. He looked silly and cute. There was no such person in Kunlun. He didn't need to be killed by his fellow Taoists for the opportunity. The monsters could eat him in one bite. He was annoyed and said, "How did Sect Master Yu teach you? It's okay that your cultivation is limited by nature and your progress is not fast, but why do you look like a blank slate?"

Jiang Lisheng argued in a low voice, "There is no blank paper either."

She didn't think people had to hide their emotions. It was so tiring. If she didn't have enough strength, could she make up for it with her heart? If she couldn't achieve the great way, it would be useless to make up for it, right? Her master said that she was not blessed by heaven, so she had to go with the flow.

So, she just went with the flow until now.

Ying Zongyu was speechless. "You look like a blank slate. Do you want me to look at you in the mirror? You look so stupid. Even any of those beasts in the Spirit Beast Peak is smarter than you."

Jiang Lisheng: "..."

This is really insulting. Isn't she better than those beasts? She looked at Ying Zongyu unconvinced.

"You were chased by the mole and were in such a miserable state that you were almost eaten. How are you strong?" Ying Zongyu said bluntly.

Jiang Li had no more words to defend herself and gave up immediately. She felt a little upset. That beast had eaten all her snacks. The new snacks she bought had not been returned yet, so she had nothing to eat.

She turned her head and looked at Wei Qinglan eagerly, "Senior Brother Wei, when will Senior Brother Yun come back?"

Wei Qinglan looked at her and said, "I don't know."

Jiang Li sighed, "My snacks..."

Wei Qinglan saw that her spiritual power was almost exhausted, her face was pale and weak, and at this time he was not thinking about recovering her spiritual power, but only thinking about snacks. He was silent for a while, and said, "It won't take more than three to five days, just bear with it for now."

After he finished speaking, he looked at Ying Zongyu and said, "I will send Junior Sister Jiang back. All the spiritual replenishing pills she used today should be charged to me."

"Why should it be recorded on you? You killed two demon snakes that escaped from the Demon Suppression Tower for the sect, so it's recorded on the sect's account." Ying Zongyu waved his hand, "Send her back and let her rest. I'll ask my disciples to buy some soul-replenishing pills, and then I'll call you over."

Wei Qinglan nodded, said no more, took off his sword, and motioned Jiang Lisheng to follow him.

Jiang Lisheng resisted in his heart, "I can go back by myself, there's no need for Senior Brother Wei to send me back."

Wei Qinglan raised an eyebrow, "Are you sure you can fly a sword?"

Jiang Lisheng said with all his strength: "I can."

Wei Qinglan stared at her. "You can't even stand steadily, how can you be so stubborn? If you don't allow me to send you back, I won't need you to repair the spirit palace."

Jiang Lisheng suddenly fell silent and followed him out of the medical hall obediently.

The two men stepped on the same sword, one on the tip of the sword and the other on the hilt, with room for another person in between, and they walked steadily.

Ying Zongyu watched the two of them leave, sighed in his heart, and said casually: "The sect master may have closed his door too early. He should wait until he sees this little girl before closing his door."

Si Shao was puzzled and asked quietly, "Master, what do you mean by this?"

Ying Zongyu did not answer, but instructed him, "Go down the mountain and buy some nourishing pills. Bring back a thousand bottles."

Kunlun is wealthy and powerful, so thousands of bottles are just a few bottles in Ying Zongyu's mouth. Kunlun's precepts strictly forbid disciples to consume large quantities of elixirs, so as to avoid taking shortcuts, practicing in a weak way, and having an unstable foundation. Therefore, the storage capacity in the medical hall and the warehouse is not large, only dozens of bottles, which are used for emergency treatment and are rarely used normally. Today, they were all used up by Jiang Lisheng.

There is no such rule in Qingxu. Jiang Lisheng was born a loser and eats elixirs as meals, so he naturally doesn't know about this.

Si Shao whispered, "Master, Junior Sister Jiang can actually absorb all the spiritual power in the elixir with her hands?" "There are thousands of ways, and each has its own way. It's not surprising that she has special spiritual power." Ying Zongyu waved his hand.

Si Shao thought about it and agreed, but he still felt that this Junior Sister Jiang was full of magical powers and he really wanted people to find out more about her.

Wei Qinglan quickly sent Jiang Lisheng to the courtyard where she lived. After landing on the ground, Jiang Lisheng thanked him obediently, "Thank you, Senior Brother Wei."

Wei Qinglan took out a box from her storage ring and handed it to her. "I don't have any spiritual pills on me, so I can't help you recover your spiritual power as quickly as possible, but I have a box of fruit. I'll give it to you as a snack first."

Jiang Lisheng was stunned for a moment, then quickly waved his hands, "Jia Guo is precious, how can you give it to me as a snack? No, no, no."

"Here you go." Wei Qinglan stuffed it into her hand. "Throw it away if you don't want to eat it."

After he finished speaking, Yu Jian left.

It was much faster than when Yu Jian sent her back.

Jiang Lisheng took the box that he had forced into her hand. In the blink of an eye, she saw that he had disappeared. She felt very uncomfortable for a moment. This was a delicious fruit, a delicious fruit produced from Mount Buzhou. She didn't eat it and threw it away? How dare she? She was afraid of being punished by God.

It is said that outside the northwest sea, in the corner of the wilderness, there is a mountain called Buzhou, which is a mountain in the divine domain. Buzhou Mountain is cold all year round, with snow all year round, and is rarely visited by people. There are two monsters in the mountain, called the yellow bear and the yellow leopard, known as the two yellow beasts. The two beasts are ferocious, and ordinary people cannot get close to Buzhou Mountain. Anyone who enters will most likely never return.

It is said that to the north of Buzhou Mountain lies Zhupi Mountain, at the foot of which lies a swamp, on the bank of which there is a kind of fruit tree with leaves like jujube leaves, yellow flowers, red calyx, and peach-like fruits, which are called Jiaguo. If one eats a Jiaguo when competing with others or fighting with monsters, one will not feel tired.

Wei Qinglan gave her a box of fruit as a snack. Isn’t that too extravagant and wasteful?

But she was indeed very tired now.

She opened the box and found six fruits in total. She picked up one and took a bite. It tasted sweet, juicy and really delicious.

She finished one delicious fruit and was thinking about whether to have another one when An Ruxu suddenly poked her head out from the next room. "Junior Sister Jiang, you're back? Why is your face so pale? Is it because you helped Junior Brother Wei..."

Jiang Lisheng nodded.

An Ruxu came out and asked with concern: "What did you do? Why are you so weak and pale? Is Junior Brother Wei okay?"

"I just used some spiritual power. As long as my spiritual power can help Senior Brother Wei, it's fine." Jiang Lisheng shook his head, "My spiritual power is not enough. I still need some time. Senior Brother Wei is not fully recovered yet."

An Ruxu looked at her and said, "You look very weak. Why didn't you stay in the medical hall? If your spiritual power is insufficient, you can use the spiritual replenishing pill to replenish it? Can't the spiritual replenishing pill in the medical hall be taken out for you at this time?"

"I have used it up. I have used it all up." Jiang Lisheng felt very hungry every time his spiritual energy was exhausted, but after eating a delicious fruit, he felt much better. "Senior Brother Wei gave me a box of delicious fruits. I just ate one and I don't feel tired anymore. Thank you, Senior Brother An, for your concern."

"Garlic fruit?" An Ruxu's attention was diverted all of a sudden, and she was shocked. "Is it the box of Garlic fruit he brought back from Buzhou Mountain?"

"Ah? He went to Mount Buzhou by himself?" Jiang Lisheng was also shocked.

She thought that Wei Qinglan had obtained the precious fruit left by his ancestors by chance, but it turned out that he had gone to Buzhou Mountain to pick it himself? Rumor has it that Buzhou Mountain is a divine realm that can lead to the heavens. Does he have to ask for the divine realm when he has just achieved the golden elixir?

An Ruxu's eyes fell on the box in her hand and nodded, "A year ago, he went to Buzhou Mountain and came back with injuries all over his body, and brought back a box of Jiaguo."

He added, "Six."

He added, "He wanted to give it to the suzerain, and the suzerain told him to keep it for himself."

Jiang Lisheng suddenly felt the box in her hand was hot. She said she couldn't accept it, right? It turned out that Wei Qinglan only had this one box, and gave it all to her. She suddenly felt that the pill she had just eaten was burning in her stomach.
