Chapter 341

People have the ability to self-heal, especially Ji You's physical body, which already carried vigorous vitality.

As long as the meridians are supported and opened, that vitality can slowly heal his injuries.

This is also a main direction of early treatment, because his current state can be said to be fragile at a touch; he can only let his own vitality slowly repair, and only after reaching a stable state can he try other means.

This corresponds to that sentence of Hall Master You; this matter may take countless time, and the most important thing is patience.

During this period, Ding Yao and Zhuo Zhuo Wanqiu brought the people of Spirit Sword Mountain to the Heavenly Tian Shuyuan and entered the Inner Court under the pretext of discussing the handling of the legacy clan.

At first, the people in the Management Court really thought they came for business, but after entering the Inner Court, they insisted on seeing Ji You.

Especially Ding and Zhuo, who insisted on staying and taking care of him without leaving a step.

You You Yingqiu did not refuse their request, and at the same time, thinking of the strangeness mentioned by her Master, she chatted with them a few more times.

The Spirit Sword Mountain Little Appraisal Master did not have the Spirit Appraisal in hand, and no matter how strong he was, he was only at the Boundless Middle Realm, yet he guarded the dojo when the Approaching Immortal Realm attacked; this matter was indeed a bit strange.

"They said the Spirit Sword Mountain Little Appraisal Master was not injured and is presiding over the overall situation at Spirit Sword Mountain; he will come to visit in person once the mountain is stable."

"He is indeed still in the human world."

"Who... is Master talking about?"

"An old friend with extremely poor taste in wine."

The old man muttered a word, a trace of nostalgia appearing in his eyes, and while You You Yingqiu was not looking, he went down the mountain to buy a pot of wine.

The Pill Sect was still in a state of sealing the mountain.

The six Qingyun sects allowed the Pill Sect to rebuild back then, but the condition was that Pill Masters were not allowed to cultivate, and they jointly used great magic power to restrict the Great Furnace; this matter could also be considered as indirectly helping them survive a disaster.

However, although they were still sealing the mountain, the vigilance in their hearts had decreased a bit; every period of time, they would go down the mountain to purchase and collect letters.

And Yuan Yuan Caiwei also saw her sister's message after being delayed for several days, and then insisted on going down the mountain, but was blocked by her father, Yuan Li.

"This matter seems to be that the demon people failed to succeed, but the balance has been broken; Qingyun is no longer the Qingyun it was back then. Next, there will be a long period of fighting and chaos. You lack experience in dealing with the world and will cause trouble for the Pill Sect. Moreover, if you leave the mountain, your younger brother's mind will fly away."

"Father, Ji You saved our entire sect."

"I naturally know, so I have already arranged for Elder Elder Danyangzi to go down the mountain; his attainments in pill arts are higher than yours, so you can rest assured."

Elder Danyangzi left Pill Mountain after receiving the Appraisal Master's order, traveled along the secret path to the Heavenly Tian Shuyuan, and performed a diagnosis and treatment on him.

The conclusion he gave was the same as the opinions of the two Hall Masters.

Ji You was sucked dry to the point of hollowness, and his body was extremely weak; using his own vitality to nourish him by supporting and opening his meridians was the best way.

Because whether it is pills or external objects, for him today, they are all external forces, and external forces will inevitably increase his current burden.

The best way is for his own vitality to repair his body to a stable foundation, and then feed him pills and perform techniques.

After this, the Auspicious Hall had a fixed crowd of people coming in and out.

Cao Cao Jingsong, Wen Zhengxin, Ban Ban Yangshu, and the Lu sisters would come to visit at the time arranged by You You Yingqiu.

In addition, there were Xiang Kuangcheng and Wei Rui.

They returned to Shengjing with Ding Yao and Zhuo Zhuo Wanqiu; after all, Xiang Kuangcheng could not sit still, and hearing that Ji You was seriously injured made him even more unable to sit still.

Yan Yan Shuyi felt that Ji You could now be considered to have protected the inheritance of the six major immortal sects; at the very least, on the surface, they could no longer take action against Ji You, and returning at this time was not a bad opportunity.

Besides these visitors, Ding Yao and Zhuo Zhuo Wanqiu lived in the back hall of the Auspicious Hall, taking turns to nurse him.

Pill Sect Elder Elder Danyangzi lived in the Immortal Guest Garden of the Inner Court and would come once every period of time.

There was also an old doctor who would come to the Auspicious Hall every evening to diagnose and treat Ji You; Ding Yao and Zhuo Zhuo Wanqiu would feel sleepy every time this happened, and they did not know what was going on.

In addition, for the victims of this catastrophe, the Heavenly Tian Shuyuan also prepared a memorial service for them.

A group of Elders and Inner and Outer Court disciples, those who fell here, were all placed on the right side of the Ascending Immortal White Jade Platform in the form of portraits.

But the matter here did not subside because of this.

Those demon people in the Approaching Immortal Realm were indeed dead, but many things had not been fully understood.

Their entire plan, those unknown details, and whether anyone else was involved.

These things naturally had traces to follow, because after the Heavenly Dao Sacrifice was cut off by Ji You, the Upper Five Realms Perfection of the six major immortal sects arrested many living captives.

Those people were first detained in Risheng County, suppressed by the Sacred Artifact, and then sent to the dungeon specially built by the Immortal Supervision Bureau, which was connected to the Great Array.

The six major immortal sects all had people stationed around the dungeon, strictly guarding it while constantly interrogating them.

After the Great Heat, a light rain visited Qingyun.

Bai Bai Rulong, led by Mu Jing, the Mu Tisi of the Immortal Supervision Bureau, walked through the long corridor deep in the dungeon.

In order to link to the Great Array, this dungeon was built underground, with no light around, only oil lamps for illumination, looking very dark; people walking in it would have a feeling of being suppressed until they could not breathe.

Not long after, Bai Bai Rulong was brought to a separate cell deep inside.

By the dim candlelight, he saw his father in the cage.

Bai family head Bai Bai Zhengze looked very disheveled.

In the battle of the ruins, all his clothes were damaged, looking dirty and unbearable; coupled with living in confinement for a long time, his spirit had also reached its limit.

Seeing this scene, Bai Bai Rulong did not know what emotions he should show, so he could only remain numbly silent.

Bai Bai Zhengze also saw his son by the candlelight at this time, and after staring at him for a long time, he could not help but speak: "What are you doing here?"

"I want to ask Father why things turned out like this."

"Do you think I did something wrong?"

Bai Bai Rulong looked at him: "I have no way to feel that Father is right."

Bai Bai Zhengze sneered: "There is no right or wrong in this world, only winning or losing; we are wrong only if we lose; if we win, history will not be written like this."

"Then how would it be written?"

"Naturally, it would be that the Bai family controls the Central State, with power comparable to the Immortal Sect, and people from all directions come to congratulate."

Bai Bai Rulong stared at him with red eyes: "Is power truly that important?"

Bai Bai Zhengze narrowed his eyes: "Without power, you can only be in the lower class forever; no matter how hard you try, you can only be under others, suppressed by thousand-year families and still have to respectfully smile. What I did was for the glory of the family. You must know that there are not many opportunities to subvert this world; it is worth a gamble."

"If our Bai family had a blood feud with others, I could understand it, but Father, is it just for desire?"

"Our family indeed has no blood feud with others, but we are also constantly declining at the bottom of the immortal family. I have cultivated for countless time and still cannot break through the realm, only able to bitterly endure my lifespan. You are still young and may not understand the torture in this."

Bai Bai Rulong looked at him expressionlessly: "So you used your family members as nourishment for your own breakthrough, including your own son?"

Bai Bai Zhengze's face suddenly became gloomy: "If this battle is won, those people will definitely be invited into the ancestral hall to receive incense and offerings from the Bai family's descendants. Your younger brother Bai Shihu will even be placed in the first row and regarded as a hero's soul."

"But Father chose me at the beginning, right?"

As the words fell, the cell suddenly fell into silence, as if the candlelight and the air were freezing at the same time.

Bai Bai Rulong looked at his father who was staring at him and muttered: "I received Father's pills when I first entered the Heavenly Tian Shuyuan and was flattered, but only now do I understand that it was something that could turn me into a monster."

Bai Bai Zhengze suddenly laughed: "That's right, just because of your laziness, I could only choose Bai Shihu later and spare your useless life."

"But you chose Bai Shihu and killed the second mother, which shows that you didn't like them that much; anyone in your eyes can be sacrificed."

"Those who achieve great things naturally cannot be restricted by small details."

Bai Bai Rulong suddenly exhaled, then slowly got up and walked towards the outside of the cell.

Actually, he did not understand any great affairs of the world, and he was indeed a useless thing, even without much opinion, easily bewitched by others.

So, except for their killing people to refine medicine and harming infants, he could slightly understand Father's desire for power and upward struggle.

It was just that from his own emotional aspect, he could not find a reasonable excuse to convince himself.
