Chapter 339: He Shi's Face Swollen

~12 min read 2,343 words

In the next instant, relying on that last bit of clarity, she entered the Primordial Spirit Realm, but then she fell straight to the ground.

"A Li!" Jiu Li was the first to pounce forward!

Jiu Ying, Yu Jia, and Xiao Bai also lunged forward!

Even Xiao Fusang leaned over a branch, winding around Shen Qingli, the divine wood's qi seeping into her heart, healing her.

"Move aside, let me take a look." Yu Jia, as the eldest, already extended her tiny wing and placed it on Shen Qingli's wrist.

Jiu Li and the others had already scattered, staring with a single eye, among them Jiu Ying's gaze the strongest—after all, it has eighteen eyes.

"She seems to have been poisoned." Yu Jia hopped over to Shen Qingli's face, looking up,

Jiu Li extended its paws, lifting it up so it could see Shen Qingli's face, and asked, "Is it poisoned?"

"Yes, it seems to be some weird poison." Yu Jia can now speak, but still can't fly.

After so long, its fur has finally become fluffy, no longer sparse; its size has also grown from a tiny chick to a medium-sized chick.

Compared to the previous Xi Xi, it's more like a chick.

Even the rebellious Jiu Ying wouldn't dare act rashly in front of it.

"What kind of weird poison is that?" Jiu Li didn't understand, "Can it be cured?"

"As long as the childhood husband is present." Yu Jia answered.

Jiu Li blinked, "Ah! That kind of poison! Holy shit! That's Cang Zazha! Gasp! How is he getting more and more despicable! He actually used that poison on A Li! This book isn't even read into a dog's belly, it's read into a sewer!"

"What poison?" Jiu Ying didn't understand, after all it's just a man-eating beast that grows stronger, a super ferocious beast, how would it know all this messy nonsense.

"Go find A Jin!" Xiao Bai said, about to rush out, "I'll go find him! I'll definitely find him!"

Jiu Li had already grabbed its tail, "Don't even think about it—how could the Taiqing Dian be that easy to find?"

"I can find it too!" Xiao Bai wagged its tail, twisting around! That's not something Jiu Li can easily hold onto.

But Shen Qingli could, "Don't go…"

"A Li! You're awake!" Jiu Li immediately pressed its face close.

Shen Qingli nodded, feeling only heat and dizziness, also realizing she had been afflicted.

But after drinking that cup of tea, she sealed it with her cultivation—how could she still be poisoned?

"This medicine is potent; you need to find someone to detoxify." Yu Jia said.

Shen Qingli placed her hand on one of Jiu Ying's heads, sat up, and hadn't answered yet.

Jiu Li said, "I'll go catch a youngster for you? Your childhood husband definitely won't blame you—your life is more important!"

Shen Qingli laughed despite herself, "Don't mess around."

"How could that be messing around! Nothing is more important than you!" Jiu Li said seriously!

We can't let Cang Pei off easy! But we definitely need to survive first.

"Try using your bloodline power." Yu Jia reminded.

Shen Qingli also prepared to try that; if her cultivation couldn't seal it, she'd try to suppress it with bloodline power.

The aura of the ancient Huaxu bloodline from primordial times is old and mysterious; as her blood flows, Shen Qingli also imbues it with dark power.

Before, the dark power was suppressed, unable to use it to seal this filthy poison; now it can be used, and naturally we must not let it slip.

That secret medicine power from the He Shi line! Indeed, facing the "Ancestral Forefather" and absolute power, it gradually subsides.

But Shen Qingli wants to force it out, yet she can't? This poison seems to have completely merged with her……

"I remember now!" Xiao Fusang suddenly transmitted her thoughts.

Shen Qingli stared, "What?"

"Your poison is very similar to the aura emitted by that earlier stinky fruit; you can look for your little bird! Not that old bird, but that little Red! It ate it and was fine, right?" Xiao Fusang analyzed logically.

Little Red?

Just Shen Que.

However, he is not here.

But it's not exactly bad news; at least we have a direction for detoxification.

"What's wrong?" The other beasts, unable to hear Xiao Fusang's transmission, were all confused by Shen Qingli's startled look.

Shen Qingli then relayed it; Yu Jia was surprised, then pondered, "... I think I get it—this shouldn't be considered poison, but a curse, a love curse."

"Huh?" Shen Qingli didn't understand, "How did you deduce that?"

"Your Heaven-Swallowing Devil Bird swallowed the Ying Bird's inner core, right? That bird even mutated, gaining curse power. So your little black bird, after advancing, differs from an ordinary Heaven-Swallowing Devil Bird and can also swallow curses." Yu Jia analyzed.

As the saying goes, having an elder in the family is like having a treasure.

Don't look at Yu Jia being small now—she knows everything!

"What would we do without you!" Jiu Li already sighed.

Yu Jia glanced at this little cat, truly sweet-tongued—no wonder A Li likes it the most.

"All I need to do is bring A Que back." Shen Qingli no longer felt so awful.

But just in case, she closed her eyes again to regulate her breath, completely sealing this love curse! To prevent it from suddenly causing trouble.

As for the outside, since she can't return to Guest Island immediately, going out now would only be walking into a trap; it's better to lay low for a while.

She believes that over at the Grandmaster Uncle's side, they definitely won't let her suffer a loss.

And while she focused on suppressing the love curse, things on Yunhe Island were already bustling.

The Heavenly Pure Old Ancestor who returned to Guest Island didn't find Shen Qingli and immediately realized something had happened!

However, before he could raise an objection!

Heaven Fighting Mother then came to question, "Tian Qing, why did Shen Qingli try to assassinate Qiu Xuan's fiancé?"

Heavenly Pure Old Ancestor laughed in anger, "You're crying wolf! You specifically asked me to bring A Li, and now you're slandering her for assassinating some guy's fiancé? Absurd! If you don't immediately hand over A Li, this matter won't end!"

Heaven Fighting Mother then took out a projection bead, projecting the scenes of Shen Qingli meeting Cang Pei and assassinating him for Heavenly Pure Old Ancestor to see, "Without concrete evidence, I will not question."

【"You heavenly god clan's methods, to fabricate what evidence isn't easy?"】 Tianqing Old Ancestor firmly does not believe Shen Qingli would do this! Even if she really did! He absolutely would not admit it!

Moreover, as Shen Qingli expected, since he dared to bring her here, he is confident that the He clan dare not openly act against her! He has already declared, "The news that I bring A Li to the feast is known to all heavenly god clans and earthly god clans! Taiqing Dian knows too!"

He Tian Dou Mu's eyes slightly narrowed…

Tianqing Old Ancestor already raised the stakes, saying, "Taiqing Dian may not agree to the children's marriage, but what of it? The Young Venerable of Heavenly Control's actions that day, you have seen with your own eyes.

If he knows, this matter absolutely cannot be left unresolved! He Tian, don't do foolish things, hand over A Li, I will treat it as if nothing happened, and then I will take her away."

Today this matter has turned out like this, already far from the Three Pure Mystic Maiden's plan; she cannot take the moral high ground to accuse Shen Qingli of climbing into her fiancé's bed! Moreover, she cannot openly use this to forcibly keep Shen Qingli in the He clan.

But she is truly unwilling, unable to hold back, she steps forward and says, "She indeed assassinated my fiancé! This is a fact, it has left me unable to marry, this matter absolutely cannot just be let go!"

"When elders speak, is it your turn to interject?" Tianqing Old Ancestor coldly rebuked, "You once descended to the divine realm to make things difficult for her, do you think I don't know?"

Your scheme is also too petty, within the time it takes to finish a cup of tea, I want to see A Li! Otherwise, this matter absolutely cannot be resolved!"

"You really didn't hide the person?" He Tian Dou Mu asked.

Tianqing Old Ancestor coldly snorted, "I am open and aboveboard! Why need to hide? Stop the nonsense, quickly hand over A Li!"

"Really sorry." He Tian Dou Mu sighed, "I came to question, not entirely believing the juniors' words; I must confront them face to face, then we will judge who is right and wrong."

"What do you mean by these words, He Tian Dou Mu?" Tianqing Old Ancestor's face darkened, "Are you trying to use a delaying tactic, waiting for the situation to develop beyond control?"

"Absolutely not." He Tian Dou Mu calmly said, "I can swear on the entire He clan that Shen Qingli is definitely not in our hands. For now, it seems we can only first find the person, then discuss other matters."

"That is also a disappearance on your turf. Within one day, if I don't see A Li, this matter absolutely cannot be left unresolved!" Tianqing Old Ancestor threw down those words and directly went back inside.

The Three Pure Mystic Maiden still wanted to speak, but was checked by He Tian Dou Mu's glance.

That glance even directly froze her heart…

Returning to the clan, the Three Pure Mystic Maiden hadn't yet had time to apologize,

"Pa!"

He Tian Dou Mu slapped her with a palm!

"Trash!"

Already helped to the doorstep, yet still couldn't accomplish anything!

The Three Pure Mystic Maiden, her face burning with pain, eyes seeing stars, was directly knocked senseless!

This was the third time she was slapped, and that slap still came from Shen Qingli.

The Three Pure Mystic Maiden directly knelt in midair, not daring to wipe away the blood at the corner of her mouth, nor dare to explain.

He Tian Dou Mu is not emotionally unstable; after slapping her, she actually was no longer angry, and began to reconsider.

After a moment, she figured it out, "I originally thought that Tianqing Old Ancestor's prophecy was to give Shen Qingli protection, even at the cost of face."

"Isn't it?" The Three Pure Mystic Maiden still thought so!

"No." He Tian Dou Mu sat down, under the divine halo, she, dignified and magnificent, confident and wise, said, "It's true; if she were not the person of destiny, today's situation could not be broken."

An absolute deadlock.

Other heavenly god clan elites would also fall.

Shen Qingli, however, could break the deadlock; right now, nobody knows where she is.

"The one who uses the ore, is not necessarily the Young Venerable of Heavenly Control."

He Tian Dou Mu's eyes showed amusement; a minor true god, not even having reached the Xuanqing realm, actually possesses such ability.

The Three Pure Mystic Maiden's face changed, "Is she truly the way out for my heavenly god clan? Then wouldn't we have to support her!"

"Support?" He Tian Dou Mu lowered her eyes, "Step back, just focus on finding people."

"Well,"

"Step back."

He Tian Dou Mu brooked no objection.

The Three Pure Mystic Maiden dared not speak further, kowtowed and took her leave.

Not long after, the other heavenly god clan chiefs arrived, and Tianqing Old Ancestor was again summoned to the council.

Inside and outside Yunhe Island, He clan troops gathered, almost digging three feet deep to search for Shen Qingli.

This resulted in when Shen Qingli, who had consumed the invisibility herb, came out, outside there was the sound of cranes crying in the wind.

'"Looking for me?"'

Shen Qingli pondered that causing such a commotion must be due to pressure from her grandmaster-uncle.

She then quietly headed back to Guest Island, but did not see Tianqing Old Ancestor.

Instead, she heard someone reporting, "Mystic Maiden, there is also no trace of Shen Qingli here."

"She really knows how to hide!" The Three Pure Mystic Maiden gritted her teeth, "Spread the word, the Huaxu Tomb is about to activate its formation; I simply don't believe that upon hearing it she won't show herself!"

Shen Qingli heard it, but how could she possibly show up? Listening to the Three Pure Mystic Maiden's meaning, it's clearly a trap!

But the Three Pure Mystic Maiden also said, "Because of her! The other four clans' juniors have all arrived! We really need to open the tomb ahead of time, truly an ill-omened wretched servant!"

Shen Qingli: "?"

It is a trap, but the Huaxu Tomb will indeed be opened?

In fact, Shen Qingli's guess was correct; the Huaxu Tomb must be opened in advance.

The meaning of the four clans is that their heavenly god clan ought to go down first to familiarize themselves.

As for searching for Shen Qingli, it wouldn't cause a delay, right?

This let Shen Qingli, who had obtained this news, not wait for Tianqing Old Ancestor any longer, and decide to follow the heavenly god clan.

'"A Li, the effect of your invisibility herb is about to expire! Come in first to consume it for a month, then take it out again!"'

Jiu Li, who was watching the time for Shen Qingli, had already been transmitting urges for her to return, but she had just boarded the cloud vessel, preparing to go to the Huaxu Tomb, and could not go back.

'"How much longer?"'

'"Just one-third of a moment."'

Enough, we'll talk after going down to the tomb.

Shen Qingli calculated the time and followed to the Huaxu Tomb.

Before the cloud boat dispersed, she was about to go to the Yuanling Realm.

However, in that instant shorter than a thought—

A wisp of terrifying aura, as if there yet not, locked onto Shen Qingli!
