Chapter 857: Meeting Jiuyou Again

Wang Jianqiang smiled slightly, offering no explanation, but continued, "Do you think Wan would joke about a Heart Demon Oath?"

Upon hearing this, Liu Yanran immediately calmed down.

Seeing this, Wang Jianqiang laughed, "Why don't you examine it carefully and see for yourself?"

Liu Yanran's expression shifted, and she began to inspect it closely.

A moment later.

A flash of brilliance crossed her eyes, and she revealed a look of astonishment.

This Spirit Nourishing Pill was somewhat different from the Spirit Nourishing Pills she had seen before!

It seemed significantly more potent than ordinary Spirit Nourishing Pills!

And...

The medicinal power of this Spirit Nourishing Pill was unimaginably pure!

It seemed...

There was no Pill Poison!

This was a Perfect Pill!

At this moment, a name that only existed in legends suddenly flashed through her mind.

Following that, she looked up at Wang Jianqiang, her heart full of anticipation, yet somewhat unable to believe it as she said, "Is this... a Perfect Spirit-Nurturing Pill?"

Wang Jianqiang nodded with a smile, "That's right!"

Hearing Wang Jianqiang's confirmation, Liu Yanran took a deep breath.

Indeed.

No wonder this Wan Guiyuan dared to make such a bold claim.

If he possessed enough Perfect Spirit-Nurturing Pills, he could indeed help her rapidly raise her cultivation to the Spirit Severing Mid Stage.

Thinking of this, she no longer had the slightest doubt in her heart.

"Many thanks to Daoist Friend Wan for the gift of the pill."

She bowed to Wang Jianqiang.

Wang Jianqiang nodded with a smile, "Alright, go back and cultivate first; test the pill's effect. Come to my place in five days, and I will give you more Perfect Spirit-Nurturing Pills, and I have some other things to give you as well."

Other things?

Could it be a treasure that rivals, or is even more precious than, the Perfect Spirit-Nurturing Pill?

Liu Yanran felt a surge of anticipation, and an irrepressible look of excitement appeared on her face, "Many thanks, Daoist Friend Wang."

Wang Jianqiang nodded.

"I have some matters to attend to, so I will be leaving first."

He greeted Liu Yanran and, without lingering, walked toward the depths of the residential area for Core Disciples of the Youyun Holy Land.

He also sent a message to Jiuyou.

In the deepest part of the residential area for Core Disciples of the Youyun Holy Land.

Outside an exquisite Pavilion, a figure was standing before the tightly shut door.

It was none other than the strongest of the Youyun Holy Land's younger generation, the direct bloodline of the Youyun Holy Lord, and the most highly regarded junior... Luo Xuandao.

After failing to intercept and kill Wan Guiyuan, Luo Xuandao had been greatly provoked; upon returning, he had immediately entered seclusion.

It was not until a year ago that his cultivation successfully broke through to the Spirit Transformation Late Stage, and he emerged from seclusion.

Originally, the Youyun Holy Lord had promised him that after he returned from intercepting Wan Guiyuan, he would hold the Dual Cultivation Ceremony for him and Jiuyou.

But because of his seclusion, the timing for the Dual Cultivation Ceremony had been shelved and delayed until now.

He knew that Jiuyou did not have much affection for him, so during this past year, he had frequently come to visit Jiuyou, wanting to improve the relationship between the two.

But without exception, just like today, he was met with a closed door.

Regarding this, he was not the least bit anxious, nor was he angry.

Once he and Jiuyou became cultivation partners, he would have plenty of time to cultivate feelings with her.

With the entire Youyun Holy Land as his backing, he did not believe he could not win over a mere Jiuyou.

Just like now.

It was only because of a single word he said before his seclusion that Jiuyou had been placed under house arrest, and she had not been able to step half a step out of the Holy Land to this day.

Suddenly.

His expression shifted.

He took out a Sound Transmission Talisman, and upon sensing the familiar aura emanating from within it, his heart stirred.

A message from Luo Ming?

With a thought, his Spirit Sense surged into it, and after listening for a moment, a sharp look flashed in his eyes.

That grandson Wan Guiyuan had actually come to the Youyun Holy Land!

Upon hearing the name "Wan Guiyuan," he could not help but recall the scene from eight years ago outside You City, where he had suffered a crushing defeat at the hands of Wen Ya.

It was because of this grandson that he had lost all his face.

He never expected that he would dare to come into the Youyun Holy Land, and even dare to swagger about and wander around inside the Youyun Holy Land!

After his breakthrough, he had been thinking about how to take revenge, and he never expected this brat to deliver himself to his doorstep.

A cold sneer appeared on his face.

He looked at the door of the Pavilion in front of him.

After pondering for a moment, he sent a message into the door.

"Jiuyou, there is less than half a year left until our Dual Cultivation Ceremony is held."

"When the time comes, you and I will become Dao Companions under the witness of the high-level members of all the top forces in the entire Youzhou."

"It does not matter if you cannot accept it now; I believe that after you and I become Dao Companions, you will accept me sooner or later."

After finishing the transmission to the Residence Space of Jiu You, he turned and walked toward the distance.

He prepared to go find Wan Guiyuan first, to collect some interest on the past from Wan Guiyuan.

Within a vast world.

Jiu You was sitting cross-legged in a Cultivation Room, hearing this voice that had been transmitted over.

She frowned.

Thinking of Wan Guiyuan, she could not help but sigh.

She had once told Wan Guiyuan that she would go to the Beast Taming Sect to find him; she had not expected that her freedom would be restricted as soon as she returned to the Youyun Holy Land.

Now that so much time had passed, would Wan Guiyuan think that she had changed her mind?

Would he hate her?

Thinking of this, her heart was filled with anxiety and helplessness.

Just at this moment.

She suddenly sensed an abnormality in her Sound Transmission Talisman.

Her heart stirred, and she took out the Sound Transmission Talisman.

The Sound Transmission Talisman was emitting a faint Spirit Light.

Sensing the familiar aura revealed within this Spirit Light, her eyes lit up, though she was then filled with some surprise and uncertainty.

Wan Guiyuan!

It was actually a message from Wan Guiyuan.

But...

The Sound Transmission Talisman has a limited range; since she could receive Wan Guiyuan's transmission, it meant that Wan Guiyuan had already arrived near the Youyun Holy Land.

Could it be...

That he saw she had delayed in coming to find him, and had come specifically to find her?

Thinking of this, a trace of warmth inexplicably arose in her heart.

Her Spirit Sense surged into the Sound Transmission Talisman, and a familiar voice immediately rang out in her mind.

After listening to the words in the Sound Transmission Talisman, a look of joy immediately appeared on Jiu You's face.

Wan Guiyuan had actually entered the Youyun Holy Land.

And he was right within the residential area for Core Disciples of the Youyun Holy Land.

She immediately sent her location to Wang Jianqiang, then hurriedly opened a Space Channel and stepped into it.

Outside.

The door of the Pavilion opened, and Jiu You stepped out from the distorted space behind the door.

At this moment.

Luo Xuandao had just walked not far away.

Sensing the movement from behind, he subconsciously turned his head to look.

When he saw Jiu You, a look of joy immediately appeared on his face.

He hesitated in his heart.

He temporarily abandoned the idea of going to teach Wan Guiyuan a lesson immediately.

In any case, Wan Guiyuan had already arrived in the Youyun Holy Land and would not leave in the short term.

Teaching him a lesson, sooner or later, was the same.

His figure flashed, appearing before Jiu You, and he said with an eager face, "Jiu You, you are finally willing to come out and see me."

Jiu You frowned, "Do not misunderstand, I am not coming out to see you."

Luo Xuandao frowned, just about to continue speaking.

Suddenly, an aura came from behind him.

His heart stirred.

This aura...

Why did it feel familiar?

He subconsciously turned his head to look, and when a figure came into view, his expression immediately sank, and a cold look flashed in his eyes.

Wan Guiyuan!
