SQLJBFDTW Chapter 52

At Chao Jianxue’s strong insistence, they finally agreed that they would have deeper interactions after they had thoroughly understood all the books on dual cultivation theory.

Chao Jianxue naturally breathed a sigh of relief, but looking at Yu Wei’s undisguised disappointment, he felt a little regretful.

Yu Wei was already showing his emotions so openly in front of him, how rare, how unusual. Little brother really seems to like him a lot, I’m sorry, I’m sorry… Chao Jianxue wanted to kneel and apologize.

Before leaving Dongyuan, Yu Wei suddenly said that he wanted to take him to a place.

Chao Jianxue flew with him for a while without any defenses. From afar, he saw a sect-like place in the valley, which seemed to have a sense of seclusion and etherealness among the green mountains.

He followed Yu Wei to the ground, still looking around at the scenery, wondering what kind of place it was, when he saw Yu Wei take out a lotus-shaped badge and hand it to the old man guarding the gate.

“Please inform them, Yu from Yiyezhou requests to see the Master of Yiyun Valley.”

Chao Jianxue heard this title, and then took a closer look. Indeed, all kinds of herbs were planted in this valley. What was Yu Wei looking for a divine doctor for, and he even used the name of the Yu family head?

The old man did not look down on them because of Yu Wei’s young appearance. On the contrary, he respectfully cupped his hands at them and said “Wait a moment.” Like a carefree wild crane, he took special steps and briskly went up the mountain.

Chao Jianxue was still puzzled: “Are you not feeling well somewhere? What are you doing in Yiyun Valley? What is the relationship between your Yu family and Yiyun Valley?”

Yu Wei patiently explained: “The Yu family once had a kindness to Yiyun Valley, so they said that as long as they hold the Jade Lotus Token, they can seek medical treatment from Yiyun Valley at any time. I don’t feel unwell anywhere…”

His affectionate gaze fell on Chao Jianxue: “This time, I want to ask the Master of Yiyun Valley to check Senior Brother’s constitution to see why he is sometimes weak.”

Crap!

Yiyun Valley is known for its medical skills. If they investigate carefully, they might find out about his demon blood.

The Master here rarely leaves the mountain, and his abilities are even more difficult to fathom.

Chao Jianxue quickly retreated: “No, no…”

Yu Wei tilted his head in confusion: “Senior Brother?”

Chao Jianxue said: “Of course I know my body very well, so don’t bother the Master of Yiyun Valley. Why not let him check your Dan poison? I don’t need to be checked, I’ll wait for you outside!”

Yu Wei’s eyebrows gradually furrowed: “What is Senior Brother afraid of? No matter what the result, I will be with you.”

Oh, really? Chao Jianxue didn’t believe it.

He retreated while saying: “No need to trouble, no need to trouble. I suddenly remembered that I didn’t take something. You wait here and go in to check the Dan poison first. I’ll be right back!”

Chao Jianxue turned his head and was about to run, but Yu Wei was one step faster than him, and his face already showed displeasure.

When he was indifferent, he only appeared immortal, but when he had a cold face, he was covered with a layer of terrible pressure. Chao Jianxue’s goosebumps rose, wondering if it was because he had already entered the Transformation God stage.

“I packed today’s luggage, Senior Brother, have you forgotten? There is absolutely nothing missing.”

Yu Wei stared at him, against the light, his eyes seemed dark and deep, without the childishness of a junior brother.

“Senior Brother, what are you afraid of? Are you hiding something from me?”

Chao Jianxue denied it three times in a row: “No, no, impossible!”

“I’m just… I’m just… a little afraid of taking medicine.” He swallowed, losing to Yu Wei in terms of momentum.

Yu Wei’s eyes softened: “What’s there to be afraid of… Senior Brother is not a child anymore.”

Behind them, the old man had already returned with the Master’s token, calling out to them loudly: “Children, come here, I’ll take you in.”

Chao Jianxue was already roasting on the stove, looking at Yu Wei and then at the old man, he could only bite the bullet and follow the old man in.

His mind was racing, wondering what to do if he was discovered, but Yu Wei beside him simply didn’t allow him to think calmly, his mood was very anxious, and the rugged mountain road made him lose his mind.

Chao Jianxue certainly knew that Yu Wei was thinking of him, but this consideration had now become a burden…

It seemed like just a moment, they arrived at the medicine hut of the Master of Yiyun Valley.

Chao Jianxue lowered his head, very uneasy, brewing how to run away later, but his hand was suddenly gently held, Yu Wei smiled at him: “Senior Brother, don’t be afraid.”

Chao Jianxue: “…” He was even more tired.

Walking into the medicine hut, Chao Jianxue originally thought that the Master would be an old man with a white beard similar to Elder Lin, but he didn’t expect that the person who came out was a middle-aged woman.

The woman was dressed plainly, and the fine lines on her face did not diminish her radiance, but added to her elegance with long experience.

The old man who led the way bowed deeply to her: “Master, the owner of Yiyezhou is here.”

The woman nodded and approached, a fragrance of medicine wafting around her: “It’s been a long time since I’ve seen the owner of Yiyezhou, I didn’t expect him to be so young. Tell me, what’s the matter?”

Before Yu Wei could speak, Chao Jianxue pushed him forward: “He has Dan poison.”

The woman leisurely asked him to sit down, tested a few needles on his wrist, and after a moment, she said: “Easy to solve, you are already a Transformation God cultivator, you can break through on your own one day. Have you two cultivated together?”

How could she tell!

Chao Jianxue shook his head like a rattle. Yu Wei also blushed a little: “Not yet.”

The woman understood and said: “If you can cultivate together, you don’t have to bother to break through on your own. At most three times of cultivation together, you can let this Dan poison internalize into spiritual power, which will be more helpful.”

The reasoning was correct, but there was no need for dual cultivation for the time being, they had already made an agreement. Yu Wei would not force Chao Jianxue to do something he was unwilling to do for the sake of such help.

Yu Wei nodded seriously: “Thank you, Master. There is another important matter.”

He pulled Chao Jianxue closer: “My Dao companion is born with a weak constitution, especially after consuming spiritual power. Please, Master, see what the reason is.”

Chao Jianxue nervously let her look at him, Yu Wei’s casual “My Dao companion” was running around in his mind, constantly echoing.

“Your problem,” the woman smiled lightly, “follow me to the inner room.”

Then she said to Yu Wei, who was about to follow: “Family members stop here.”

Chao Jianxue breathed a sigh of relief, feeling that she must have seen something, but she was obviously a good person, seeing that he didn’t want Yu Wei to know.

The woman asked him to sit down with his back to her. Chao Jianxue only felt like a few needles had been pricked on his back, and a sharp pain came to his mind. This pain lasted for a moment, and he almost fainted.

After a long while, he regained his senses, his forehead dripping with sweat.

Turning around, the woman looked at him seriously and said: “Have your souls left your body before?”

Chao Jianxue was stunned, but still told the truth: “Indeed, I have left my body before, I…”

The woman said: “Do you think you took this body by force?”

Chao Jianxue was stunned.

She said again: “Actually, it’s not like that. Your condition is that you once separated half of your soul. Generally, doing this will make people become foolish, weak, and unable to improve their cultivation. But your other half of the soul actually returned unscathed, which is a rare thing.”

“I can tell the cultivation method you practice. It is normal to rest for a period of time after consuming too much spiritual power, and it will improve as your cultivation improves, but there is one thing that is unusual.”

Chao Jianxue looked at her nervously.

“Someone deliberately separated your soul and sealed the demon blood in your body. This is why your cultivation method has such a clear backlash. However, as the soul merges and the cultivation increases, the seal in your body weakens, and the demon blood will gradually be unsealed.”

Chao Jianxue was shocked by this sudden news, opened his mouth, but couldn’t say anything.

Who would deliberately separate his soul and seal his demon blood?

It turned out that he was not taking over the body and transmigrating, but he was originally the same soul as Chao Jianxue, but after separation, this half of the soul floated to his original world.

No wonder his physique was also particularly weak there.

Chao Jianxue originally respected this Master, but now he was even more grateful to her.

He solemnly straightened his expression, respectfully cupped his hands and bowed to her: “Junior is very grateful to the divine doctor for telling me, but please don’t tell Yu Wei about this.”

The woman said: “Of course. I will not participate in the entanglement between demon cultivators and human cultivators. I will only treat you as an ordinary patient, and a patient brought by the owner of Yiyezhou.”

Chao Jianxueastringentran touched his nose.

Finally, he came out of the inner room, and Yu Wei stood up at once: “How is it?”

Chao Jianxue said: “It’s nothing, it’s just that the innate is not good…”

The Master echoed: “That’s right, as long as you nourish it with more spiritual plants, it will be fine in the future.”

Originally, he was a little guilty, but hearing such an echo, Chao Jianxue straightened his back at once.

The two bid farewell to the Master and prepared to go home. A big stone in Chao Jianxue’s heart fell to the ground, and another stone rose up. Who sealed him?

Were they his biological parents?

In the distance, a disciple of Yiyun Valley came from diagonally opposite, with a very familiar person behind him. Black clothes, black hair, and a silver belt around his waist.

Chao Jianxue pulled Yu Wei and stopped.

From their angle, that person couldn’t see them, but they could see him.

Then he heard him cupping his hands to an elder who was picking grass leaves:

“Tan Zhou from Tianyao Sect has come to get medicine.”

“Is that person still suffering from the old disease? Negative and anorexic? My Yiyun Valley does not save those who want to die.” The elder asked.

Tan Zhou said: “My brother does not want to die, but he was injured at the root and lacks courage. Please give me some medicine to strengthen the foundation and save his life.”

The elder still went to get him medicine, saying that it was for the sake of “Tianyao Sect.”

Chao Jianxue heard it clearly, and gradually savored the meaning, what injured the root, wasn’t it that thing.

He asked Yu Wei: “The brother he said, shouldn’t it be Mo Zezhi…”

Yu Wei’s eyes deepened: “I will ask someone to investigate after I go back.”

In fact, Chao Jianxue felt that there was no need to investigate.

They had met before. At that time, Tan Zhou didn’t do anything to them, and now he wouldn’t do anything in Yiyun Valley.

Seemingly feeling something, Tan Zhou took the medicine and walked a few steps out, just in time to see them diagonally opposite.

Tan Zhou paused, seeming to be stunned for a moment, and then bowed to them from afar.

He looked very calm, didn’t come forward to talk to them, but left on his own.

It was really strange. If it was really his brother, and he had to come to Yiyun Valley from thousands of miles away to ask for medicine for him, why did Tan Zhou have no reaction when he saw him?

Chao Jianxue suspiciously thought: “He looks…”

Yu Wei tilted his head: “What?”

“More scheming than you!”

“Ah,” Yu Wei said, “…Do I look like this in Senior Brother’s eyes?”
