Chapter 31: If You Make Me Happy, I'll Save You

"Circulate your Qi."

Jiang Xun looked toward Cao Zhangqing.

Cao Zhangqing understood, hurriedly sitting behind Long Qingxin to begin circulating his Qi, helping Long Qingxin digest the Soul Returning Pill.

Under the gaze of everyone, Long Qingxin's life force was gradually recovering.

In less than the time it takes to brew a cup of tea, Long Qingxin's delicate brows furrowed, and she spat out a mouthful of stagnant blood.

"Cough, cough... cough, cough..."

Long Qingxin came back to life under the eyes of everyone.

"This, is this the Soul Returning Pill? How incredible."

Liu Ruoyun was also very surprised.

"What is going on... didn't I die?"

After recovering, Long Qingxin looked at the two women beside her, felt someone behind her circulating Qi for her, and turned her head to look.

"Senior Brother? Did you save me?"

Long Qingxin widened her eyes, looking at Cao Zhangqing with a face full of emotion.

"No, no, no."

Cao Zhangqing hurriedly stood up; how could he dare to claim credit? This senior would surely slaughter him!

"It was this senior who saved you using a precious Soul Returning Pill."

Cao Zhangqing said, looking toward Jiang Xun.

"Ah?"

Long Qingxin looked toward Jiang Xun, clearly not having expected that it was actually Jiang Xun who saved her.

【Ding, Long Qingxin's favorability: 80!】

【Return multiplier: 800!】

Saving Long Qingxin's life, and using an extremely precious Soul Returning Pill to do it, it was within Jiang Xun's expectations that her favorability would reach 80.

It was a pity he couldn't reach the goal in one step and hit one hundred directly.

【Ding, Soul Returning Pill gifted successfully!】

【Obtained return: Soul Returning Pill x800!】

"..." Jiang Xun was a little bit speechless upon seeing this.

Eight hundred Soul Returning Pills?

Am I supposed to eat them as snacks?

It seems the Soul Returning Pill is the highest grade of the Huiyuan Pill.

Of course, he would not use these Soul Returning Pills on Jiang Che and the others.

They are neither a Child of Luck nor a daughter of luck; wouldn't that be a pure waste?

"Th-thank you, Senior..."

Hearing this, Long Qingxin hurriedly stood up with the support of Gu Qing and Liu Ruoyun, and bowed to Jiang Xun in thanks.

Seeing Long Qingxin truly come back to life, Zhuo Yang, Lin Feng, and the others felt a bit bitter inside, but they didn't say anything more.

Zhuo Yang and Jiang Xun didn't know each other to begin with, and he hadn't expected Jiang Xun to help them.

Hua Bairui had already received favors from Jiang Xun, so she would be even less likely to say anything.

As for Lin Feng, Lu Yingying's life had been saved by Jiang Xun time and time again, so he was already satisfied.

"May I ask how to address you, Senior? Are you an... Elder of Shanyu Tower?"

Long Qingxin looked at Jiang Xun and asked with some hesitation.

After all, with such powerful strength and the ability to produce a Soul Returning Pill, he couldn't possibly be an ordinary disciple.

"This old man's surname is Lin; I won't say anything more."

Jiang Xun waved his hand and smiled.

"Many thanks, Senior Lin. Long Qingxin has nothing to repay you with, only..."

She had just prepared to take off her storage ring, but discovered her ring was already gone.

"I already gave it to Senior just now..."

Cao Zhangqing felt a bit awkward, and Long Qingxin felt a bit awkward too.

"Alright, no need to say more."

Jiang Xun waved his hand, looking up to see Lin Feng walking out of the great hall; he figured he must be going to find Lu Yingying.

"Senior, should we head to the treasury now?"

Zhuo Yang looked at Jiang Xun and asked.

If Jiang Xun said they couldn't go, who would dare to go?

This was also asking whether Jiang Xun was willing to let them go down together.

"We will go down first, then you all can go."

Jiang Xun said without hesitation.

He figured they wouldn't dare to refuse.

"No!"

Unexpectedly, someone shouted loudly.

Unsurprisingly, it was Tu Wan.

"If it weren't for my A Hong and A Bao taking action, how would he have had the chance to slay the Demon Venerable's soul? By what right does he get to go down first?"

Tu Wan shouted with a face full of resentment.

"If you dare, then feel free to follow."

Jiang Xun smiled, and after saying this, he walked down from the throne.

Seeing this, Gu Qing and Liu Ruoyun immediately followed.

Tu Wan gritted her teeth and prepared to follow, but was stopped by A Hong: "Saintess, you must not."

"A Hong, you are stopping me too?"

Tu Wan looked at A Hong with indignation.

But A Hong also knew that their Saintess was just unable to swallow her anger; it was purely a fit of pique.

If he gave her a way to step down, she would come down.

"With our current strength, we cannot confront that person. I must ensure the Saintess returns alive; the Saintess must not let A Bao down."

A Hong looked at Tu Wan with a serious expression and said.

"I..."

Although Tu Wan's expression was still not very good, she no longer had any intention of continuing.

"Little Demoness, does your treasury have a Formation?"

Jiang Xun asked while walking downward.

"Hmph, my Formation can make you suffer the consequences."

Jun Tianling said coldly.

"Oh my, I'm so scared. If I die, the Liu Hong Sword will be destroyed along with me, and by then, you won't even have a wisp of a remnant soul left."

Jiang Xun threatened with a smile.

"I am the Demon Venerable, am I not?"

Jun Tianling was slightly stunned, then frowned and said.

Someone who didn't know better would think Jiang Xun was the Demon Venerable.

"Do you have one or not?"

Jiang Xun gave an answer that ignored the question.

"Hmph."

Jun Tianling let out a cold snort and stopped speaking.

Go die inside!

Let's perish together!

Jun Tianling shouted in her heart.

Anyway, she couldn't get out of this sword; being a sword spirit for this old man was better off dead.

"Oops, I dropped something."

Jiang Xun pretended to drop something, and a Soul Returning Pill rolled onto the ground.

Seeing this, Jun Tianling's eyes widened.

Gu Qing hurriedly picked up the Soul Returning Pill, also feeling a bit dazed.

"Soul Returning Pill? Master, you still have some?"

Gu Qing looked at the Soul Returning Pill in surprise and said.

"Shh, this must not be spread."

Jiang Xun nodded: "I'll give this one to you, in case of emergency."

"Thank you, Master!"

Gu Qing's eyes lit up, and without being polite, she directly accepted this Soul Returning Pill.

【Ding, Soul Returning Pill gifted successfully!】

【Ding, obtained Soul Returning Pill x1000!】

Gu Qing's return multiplier was a thousand times.

"That's not fair, Master! I want one too!"

Seeing this, Liu Ruoyun became jealous and hugged Jiang Xun's arm, acting like a spoiled child.

"Alright, alright, you have one too."

Jiang Xun took out another Soul Returning Pill and placed it in Liu Ruoyun's hand; although Liu Ruoyun didn't have a return, she was still his disciple.

Besides, these Soul Returning Pills were now as plentiful as candy.

"Master is the best!"

Liu Ruoyun took the Soul Returning Pill and kissed Jiang Xun on the cheek, very happy.

"Old man, you aren't from some righteous sect, are you?"

Seeing the behavior of Gu Qing and Liu Ruoyun, Jun Tianling's brows were tightly furrowed.

"Unworthy as I am, I am the former Great Elder of the Lingerie-Sect."

Jiang Xun nodded: "I still have plenty of these Soul Returning Pills. If you coax me into a good mood, perhaps I can save you too."

"So you are from the Lingerie-Sect. Hmph, wanting this Venerable to coax you into a good mood? In your next life."

Hearing this, Jun Tianling was not surprised; this style of conduct was indeed not anything good.

"Oh my, what to do then."

Jiang Xun took out five Soul Returning Pills while walking forward.

He reached out and crushed one: "Accidentally crushed it, only four left."

"Oops, my hand slipped again."

"How did two fall to the ground? Oops, I stepped on them."

"Ah..."

"Stop!" Seeing that only one Soul Returning Pill remained, Jun Tianling gritted his teeth and shouted.
