"In our Shenmu tribe, it is a serious crime to bring outsiders back to the tribe without permission. When the time comes, it won't just be me who will be locked up. You will also be treated as invaders and severely punished." As expected, Wu Man'er explained.
Upon hearing this, Jiang Shentian frowned and looked a little distressed.
"Brother Jiang, you don't have to worry too much for now. I won't necessarily be imprisoned when I go back this time. Even if something unexpected happens and I can't come back, I will find a way to send the Mother Earth Liquid to you." Wu Man'er said again.
"Miss Man'er, don't worry, I trust you." Shen Luo stepped forward and said.
The reason why he said this was not because he was 90% sure about getting the Mother Earth Essence, but because before setting off, he had already sent a message to Lu Huaming, asking the Tang government to see if there was any way to solve the problem.
Some time ago, he received a reply letter from Lu Huaming on the road, and learned that the Tang government had also sent people to Putuo Mountain, with which they had always been on good terms, to seek help.
Upon hearing this, Jiang Shentian had no choice but to agree to wait there.
When Wu Man'er was around, because of her lively nature, she would often ask Shen Luo and Jiang Shentian questions, so the three of them didn't feel lonely when they were together. But now that she is gone, only Shen Luo and Jiang Shentian are left staring at each other, which seems a little awkward.
After spending these days together, Jiang Shentian had actually ruled out Shen Luo's suspicion in his mind, but as he had the orders of the sect master to do, he still strictly adhered to the task of keeping an eye on Shen Luo.
"Brother Jiang, even if you want to watch over me, there's no need to look me in the eye and follow me closely, right?" Shen Luo said helplessly.
"What do you want to do?" Jiang Shentian asked.
"Brother Jiang, this Miss Man'er won't be back for a while. We can't just keep an eye on each other. Why don't we each choose a place to practice on our own?" Shen Luo said.
"Okay." Jiang Shentian thought for a moment and nodded.
Shen Luo was dozens of feet away from Jiang Shentian. He picked a towering ancient tree, leaned his back against it, sat cross-legged, and began to regulate his breathing with his eyes closed.
Although he looked normal at the moment, his body was actually in turmoil, like oil boiling on fire. The evil spirit of Chi You hidden in his body broke out again and began to corrode his body.
After several outbreaks of demonic energy, Shen Luo's feelings before the outbreak became increasingly clear. He could also feel that the outbreak of demonic energy was becoming increasingly uncontrollable.
His magic power had just begun to work when his eyes began to turn red, his meridians began to move abnormally, and a faint layer of black gas overflowed from the pores on his body. If he delayed for a moment longer, the demonic energy would erupt again.
Shen Luo immediately formed seals with his hands, and the magic power in his dantian quickly circulated. The broken sword of demon slaying hidden inside immediately lit up, and a strong pure yang force began to radiate from the sword body and flow into the meridians throughout his body.
With the help of the Pure Yang Treasure Book, the original power of the Demon-Slaying Sword was stimulated even more. Waves of Pure Yang power began to flow around his body, suppressing the Chi You demonic energy that was raging in his meridians.
However, this time, as soon as Chi You's evil energy and pure yang power clashed, Shen Luo felt something was wrong.
This time, the riot of Chiyou's demonic energy was obviously not as fierce as the previous ones, but the suppression of the pure yang force did not seem as strong as before. Both seemed to have entered a period of fatigue, and the situation became somewhat stalemate.
