As the Universe Turns - Chapter 593
Chapter 593 Separate
Inside the cave, Xiao Chen and Hua Weiyang gradually fell into deep thought. After a while, Madam Xian Shu opened her mouth and said, “There is a Hundred Flowers Valley in the Central Plains south of Yunchuan. It used to be a secret branch of the Lianhua Palace. Now we can go to Yunchuan for the time being, and then think of a way to rescue You Qin and You Chang … Wei Yang, what do you think?”
Hua Weiyang said, “Right now, we are outnumbered. For the time being … we can only do this.” At the end of his sentence, his brows furrowed. If only his two brothers could come to the mortal world. What was a mere Tai Shi Dao Sect? But now that he had grown up, he could no longer rely on them for everything.
The night outside was getting darker and darker, and the moonlight shone on her face, as if she was a little more worried.
At this moment, a thin voice came from the cave. It was the sound of Little Lianhua tossing and turning. Her little face suddenly turned deathly pale. Her face was covered in sweat, and her body was soaked in sweat. She looked extremely painful.
“Lianhua …”
Madam Xian Shu was slightly shocked. She quickly walked up and pressed her fingers on her shoulder. It was obvious that the sword qi in her body had broken out again.
“What’s wrong with her?”
Hua Weiyang also walked over quickly. Little Lianhua’s face was covered in cold sweat, his eyes were tightly closed, and he kept making soft noises.
“Let me check.”
Xiao Chen walked over and pressed his two fingers on her neck. He couldn’t help but frown. If an ordinary person was attacked by the sword qi, he could also draw the sword qi out of his body, just like how he had drawn the Heavenly Evolution Sword Qi from the Hidden Sword Valley for Shen Jing that time.
However, he was truly unable to draw out the sword qi in Lianhua’s body right now. Even if his medical skills were as high as Shen Jing’s or even Fairy Su Wen’s, he was afraid that he would not be able to draw out the sword qi in Lianhua’s body.
It was only because Lianhua was still too young when she received the Sword Qi. At that time, no one dared to take the risk to draw out the Sword Qi. Now, the Sword Qi had already merged with her. Even if she had great abilities, it would be difficult to draw out the Sword Qi. Only with the passage of time could the Sword Qi dissipate bit by bit.
“Does Madam have silver needles?”
Although Xiao Chen was unable to draw the sword Qi out of Lianhua’s body, he had learned a powerful medical skill from Shen Jing. He could now acupuncture Lianhua and temporarily suppress the backlash of the sword Qi in her body, so that she would not suffer any pain.
“Yes.”
Madam Xian Shu naturally had silver needles in her possession, so she took them out. Xiao Chen did not hesitate and immediately gave Lianhua the needles.
It wasn’t until midnight that the backlash of the sword qi in Lianhua’s body was suppressed, and she gradually fell into a deep slumber. However, at this moment, Xiao Chen suddenly let out a muffled snort, and his face immediately turned pale.
“What’s wrong with you?”
Hua Weiyang looked at him nervously, worried that he would consume too much energy during the day, and now he was giving Lianhua needles, affecting his previous injuries.
“It’s fine.”
Xiao Chen shook his head and his expression slowly recovered. It wasn’t because of his previous injuries. His injuries had healed long ago. When he communicated with the primordial spirit of the Di Gu Sword, the injuries caused by the Autumn Water Sword on his body had already healed.
At this moment, Madam Xian Shu looked at him as if she had faintly discovered something.
“She’s fine for now. I’ll go take a look outside first.”
Xiao Chen looked at Lianhua, who was asleep. Then, he got up and left the cave.
Tonight, when the moonlight was bright, he walked around alone, and finally came to a flower forest. He saw the ground full of splendor, the stream flowing quietly through the middle, the wind blowing past, and the petals dancing in the air. It was quiet and peaceful.
“Time has not changed, but the bright moon still shines brightly …”
Looking at the falling flowers all over the ground, Xiao Chen couldn’t help but recall that when he first went to Lianhua Palace in the past, the valley was filled with flowers, but now, everything had changed.
“Young Hero Xiao.”
Right at this moment, a woman’s voice suddenly came from outside the forest. Xiao Chen turned around and saw Madam Xian Shu walking over lightly. The moonlight shone on her snow-white clothes, as if she had been covered in a faint veil.
“Madam.”
Only now did Xiao Chen know that she was actually a disciple of Wei Yang, and he was increasingly unable to see through Hua Weiyang’s identity.
Madam Xian Shu slowly walked over. All the disciples in Lianhua Palace called her “Madam Xian Shu”, but in fact, she was not married. She looked like she was only in her early twenties, more like Hua Weiyang’s sister.
“Just now, Young Hero Xiao’s cultivation was … damaged?”
“It’s fine.”
Xiao Chen shook his head. Actually, it was only because he had used up too much of his Earth Sword during the day. Using his Earth Sword had already consumed a lot of his primordial spirit. Moreover, he still used the Earth Sword. Now that he hadn’t truly transformed into a spirit, it wasn’t strange for him to be unable to withstand it. He would naturally recover in a few days.
Madam Xian Shu nodded slightly and didn’t ask any further, saying, “It’s all thanks to Young Hero Xiao these days.”
“Madam’s words are too heavy.” Xiao Chen looked at her and said.
Madam Xian Shu smiled softly and looked at the stream in the middle of the forest. She turned around and asked, “Then Young Hero Xiao, can you tell me something about going to the Eastern Continent? How did you find the Fusang Flower?”
Xiao Chen nodded. He had nothing to hide from Madam Xian Shu, so he told her everything about his trip to the Eastern Continent. He even told her about meeting the Twelve-fingered Heart Demon in the God’s Demon Tomb and being trapped in the Heart Demon Forbidden Land for sixty years.
After hearing that, Madam Xian Shu was stunned. In order to get the Fusang Flower back to save Wei Yang, he had actually experienced so much. Even though he said it calmly and said it with a single word, she could already imagine the shocking scene of being surrounded by tens of thousands of people in the God Devil Tomb.
“I didn’t expect that this Fusang Flower was actually brought back by Young Hero Xiao with his life …”
After a long time, Madam Xian Shu still found it difficult to calm down. Suddenly, a trace of worry flashed in her eyes. She sighed, “But now, Wei Yang has actually forgotten everything. If she remembers it one day …”
“I’d rather she didn’t remember,” said Xiao Chen. “Like Lianhua, if she was in pain, it would be good if she didn’t have the memories she has now.”
“Young Hero Xiao …”
Madam Xian Shu did not expect that he would say such words. However, one day, Wei Yang would eventually recover these lost memories. At that time, would things be different again? A thousand years later, ten thousand years later, at that time, if the two of them were still alive, would they remember everything that had happened …
The two of them looked at each other in silence. After a long time, Madam Xian Shu asked again, “Then Young Hero Xiao, are you going to Yun Chuan with us tomorrow?”
Xiao Chen shook his head, “I won’t go for the time being.”
“Are you worried that your background is so blurry that many people want to find you? Are you afraid of implicating Lianhua Palace?” Madam Xian Shu looked at him and said.
Xiao Chen took a deep breath and slowly walked towards the stream. He slowly said, “Those people will eventually come looking for him. I only hope that they will have enough strength to resist him at that time. They won’t have to go into a dilemma …”
At this point, he stopped. He turned to look at Madam Xian Shu and said, “Tomorrow, Madam and Wei Yang will return to Yunchuan first. I will go explore the Tai Shi Dao Sect. If there is any news, I will send it to you.”
“Alright” Madam Xian Shu nodded, “Then Young Hero Xiao, be careful.”
…
The next day, Madam Xian Shu and Hua Weiyang left the 100,000-strong forest and headed towards Yun Chuan. In order to avoid attracting attention, several hundred people were divided into a dozen groups and dispersed.
Xiao Chen did not travel with them and went to the mortal world alone. In the mortal world, there were also many cultivators gathered. The matter of the 100,000 dense forests had already been stirred up. Now, almost everyone knew that he had killed Tai Shi Dao Sect’s people in the 100,000 dense forests and obtained the Di Gu Ancient Sword that had appeared in the depths of the dense forests.
Right now, Tai Shi Dao Sect was looking for him everywhere. On the other hand, he was holding a sword discussion in a place called the “Emperor Continent” in the middle of Xianyuan. He invited people from all sects and sects to attend the meeting. It was unknown what their intentions were.
