Chapter 1332: The Generous Tianyu

~8 min read 1,482 words

In the dim mountain cave, a clam shell, as if cast from white jade, lay stretched out.

The clam shell opened, and a figure sat up from within.

She was dazzlingly white; the moment she appeared, the entire cave seemed to brighten.

Suddenly.

She seemed to have sensed something and looked up.

Immediately, her gaze met another pair of eyes.

"Ah~"

After a moment of blankness, she seemed to finally react.

She jumped straight up from the clam shell, and at the same time, a flash of light shone on her body, and a long dress appeared, covering all the scenery.

Wang Jianqiang felt a wave of regret in his heart, but his expression remained blank.

Then, as if he had just come to his senses, he hurriedly turned his head, his face flushed red, and said, "Bi Xianzi, please forgive me; I did not do it on purpose."

"I only saw the Fairy come out of seclusion and, feeling concerned, looked over subconsciously."

"Before this, I did not know the Fairy was so..."

Hearing Tianyu's words, Biyan'er, who still had a trace of shame and annoyance, was startled, and that trace of annoyance instantly dissipated.

That is true...

When she entered the clam shell, she had specifically asked Tianyu to turn around.

Tianyu did not know the situation of her entering the clam shell, so naturally, he would not have expected this scene to occur.

This could not be blamed on him at all.

If anyone was to blame, it could only be her own momentary negligence for failing to make it clear to Tianyu beforehand.

Thinking of this, she shook her head, "Daoist Friend Tianyu, there is no need to blame yourself. It is I who did not make it clear to you beforehand; it is not your fault."

Hearing Biyan'er's voice, Wang Jianqiang slowly turned his head to look at Biyan'er.

Perhaps it was because of the scene that had just occurred.

After Tianyu's gaze fell upon her, she always had an uncomfortable feeling of being seen through, and her expression was somewhat unnatural.

Just then, Tianyu's voice reached her ears again, "If Bi Xianzi can understand, Tianyu is deeply grateful."

"Daoist Friend Tianyu, you are too kind. It is I, Yan'er, who should be grateful; if not for you, I fear I would have been in grave danger long ago."

Biyan'er suppressed the discomfort in her heart and managed to maintain a calm tone.

Wang Jianqiang smiled and let his gaze linger on Biyan'er for a moment.

The feeling of discomfort in Biyan'er's heart instantly became more intense; at this moment, in her perception, Wang Jianqiang's gaze seemed to have turned into something tangible.

Her body stiffened, the calmness on her face became difficult to maintain, and a blush gradually crept onto her features.

Until Biyan'er could no longer bear it and wanted to say something.

Wang Jianqiang's gaze then retracted, and he asked with a face full of concern, "How has Bi Xianzi's injury recovered?"

Hearing Wang Jianqiang's concerned inquiry, Biyan'er's attention was instantly diverted.

Her expression became heavy.

She shook her head, and after a moment of silence, she said, "The external wounds and the injuries to my meridians have healed, but the damage to my foundation..."

"The Fairy also injured her foundation?" Wang Jianqiang was startled.

Biyan'er sighed, "Before entering that rift, in order to break through the encirclement of those pursuers, I once used a Forbidden Technique of my Jade Clam Clan."

"It was at that time that my foundation was injured."

"Recovering from foundation damage is already extremely difficult, and my foundation injury is so severe..."

"Without a great opportunity, I fear it will be difficult to recover."

Speaking to the end, Biyan'er shook her head.

On this trip, she not only obtained the lost Inheritance Treasure of the Jade Clam Clan but also obtained the clam shell of the Ninth Generation Clan Leader.

If not for the damage to her foundation, with these two treasures in her possession, her future cultivation would surely have been a smooth path.

But...

Although she had obtained the treasures as she wished, and the harvest even far exceeded her expectations, her foundation had suffered heavy damage.

If it cannot be recovered, her cultivation will likely remain stuck at the Integration Stage, unable to make any progress.

Truly, the world is impermanent, and fate plays tricks on people.

Hearing Biyan'er's words.

Wang Jianqiang frowned deeply, staring at Biyan'er, not knowing what he was thinking.

Seeming to sense the somber atmosphere, Biyan'er suddenly smiled and feigned ease, "But this is nothing. Ever since I embarked on the path of cultivation, my luck has always been quite good; perhaps one day I will be able to obtain a great opportunity and recover my foundation."

Hearing Biyan'er's words, Wang Jianqiang, who had been deep in thought, came back to his senses.

He looked at Biyan'er, his expression shifting.

"Daoist Friend Tianyu, what is wrong?"

Sensing Wang Jianqiang's unusual demeanor, Biyan'er could not help but ask.

Upon hearing this, Wang Jianqiang seemed to have made a major decision; he took a deep breath and looked at Biyan'er with a solemn expression, "Bi Xianzi, I have a way to help you quickly recover from this foundation injury."

Biyan'er was stunned, thinking she had misheard, and said with some uncertainty, "Daoist Friend Tianyu, did you just say... you can help me recover my foundation?"

Wang Jianqiang nodded, "That is correct."

Biyan'er's mouth opened, "Daoist Friend Tianyu, you aren't joking with me, are you?"

Biyan'er found it hard to believe.

At the Integration Stage of cultivation, once the foundation is damaged, it is not entirely impossible to recover, but the treasures that could help her recover are all extremely rare and scarce items.

Such treasures, let alone the Jade Clam Clan, even a hegemon-level force like the Sea Giant race likely does not possess.

Is the luck of the Mermaid Clan really this good?

To actually be able to obtain such a treasure?

No~

It is impossible for the Mermaid Clan to have obtained it.

Items capable of allowing an Integration Stage cultivator to restore their foundation are all incomparably rare.

If the Mermaid Clan had obtained it, they would surely enshrine it as a foundation, so how could they bestow it upon a clansman of Tianyu's level?

This item for restoring one's foundation is likely a fortuitous encounter that Tianyu obtained himself.

Thinking of this.

Her heart surged with excitement.

When she said earlier that her luck was good, that was merely self-consolation in the face of despair.

Never would she have thought...

That it would actually become a self-fulfilling prophecy.

Her luck was truly this good; she had just damaged her foundation and immediately encountered a solution.

It is just that...

Such a precious fortuitous encounter, would Tianyu really be willing to take it out to help her?

Such sentiment can be called profound.

She took a deep breath and looked at Wang Jianqiang with a solemn expression, "Daoist Friend Tianyu, something that can treat foundation injuries must be incomparably precious. Biyan'er knows she shouldn't ask for it, but as a cultivator, I do not wish to fade into obscurity just like this."

"Therefore..."

"I cannot refuse your kind intentions, Daoist Friend, but please rest assured, I can exchange other things for it; I will definitely not let you suffer a loss."

"Whatever you want, Daoist Friend, just name it. Even if I cannot produce it, I will certainly find a way to obtain it for you."

Wang Jianqiang heard this and shook his head with a smile, "Bi Xianzi is being too polite. We are friends, how could Tianyu ask for a reward from you, Fairy?"

Wang Jianqiang's magnanimous response warmed Biyan'er's heart, but she stubbornly shook her head, "Daoist Friend Tianyu, one thing is one thing, another is another. That you are able to bring out this fortuitous encounter to restore my foundation is something Biyan'er is already endlessly grateful for; I cannot take it for free no matter what."

Wang Jianqiang was silent for a moment, "Fairy, by acting this way, could it be that you do not consider Tianyu a friend?"

Biyan'er was stunned, "No, I did not mean that."

"Since that is the case, then do not mention compensation again," Wang Jianqiang said.

"This... alright then..."

Biyan'er ultimately could not win against Wang Jianqiang, so she nodded and agreed. After speaking, she looked at Wang Jianqiang with a face full of anticipation, "Daoist Friend Tianyu, that method you have that can help me restore my foundation... what is it?"

Wang Jianqiang smiled, flipped his hand, and a Jade Bottle appeared in his palm.

Spiritual Power flickered in his palm.

With a crisp "pop," the bottle stopper opened.

A Pill flew out from the Jade Bottle.

In an instant.

An extremely pure aura of medicinal power spread outward.
