Lu Xiaochan gasped and subconsciously was about to hide behind Shu Wuxi.
The Kunwu on the opposite side grabbed Lu Xiaochan, but before he could pull her over, Shu Wuxi flicked his right hand lightly, and a sword formation suddenly opened up, extending in all directions. Spiritual light splashed, immediately shattering Kunwu's medical curse. The vortex that was about to twist to Shu Wuxi's side suddenly disappeared.
Countless medical practitioners looked at this scene in amazement.
Kunwu thought he had captured Lu Xiaochan, but unexpectedly, Lu Xiaochan was pulled back by the Suoxian Ling. Shu Wuxi raised his hand and held Lu Xiaochan tightly in his arms.
Lu Xiaochan's ear was pressed against Shu Wuxi's chest. He could hear his heartbeat, steady yet with a hint of undercurrent.
"What you just did has been seen by your disciples." Shu Wuxi said lightly.
Kunwu, who was originally full of anger, lowered his voice and said, "Don't touch him... You know that if you touch him..."
"What will happen?" Lu Xiaochan asked before Shu Wuxu could speak.
Shu Wuxi never told him why. Lu Xiaochan initially thought that Shu Wuxi despised his dirty beggar background. But later on, Shu Wuxi took care of him in every possible way and responded to his every request - how could he despise him
So Lu Xiaochan always wanted to know the reason behind this.
Shu Wuxi didn't say it, but Kunwu definitely knew it!
He could feel Shu Wuxi lowering his head to look at him, because his breath fell on his forehead, and then Shu Wuxi gently loosened his hand, just like before, very cautiously.
Kunwu then smiled widely and patted Shu Wuxi's shoulder vigorously: "Brother! You are still so awesome! You can kill people without even using a sword!"
Some of the medical practitioners who were sorting the medicinal herbs breathed a sigh of relief, some shook their heads, some smiled helplessly and continued to sort the herbs.
Although Kunwu pretended to be just joking and arguing with Shu Wuxi, Lu Xiaochan knew that he was really angry just now.
"Come with me."
Kunwu's voice really became deeper, he turned around and walked away quickly.
Shu Wuxi and Lu Xiaochan followed slowly.
They came to a quiet room. Apart from the regular dripping of a water clock, there was no other sound.
There was only a tea table in the quiet room with a teapot on it. But when Lu Xiaochan and Shu Wuxi sat down, Kunwu had no intention of making tea for the guests. Instead, he looked at Shu Wuxi with a cold expression.
Lu Xiaochan sat there very uncomfortably. He came here to seek medical treatment, but Shu Wuxi seemed to have fallen out with Kunwu. Not to mention curing his eyes, he would probably kick them out soon.
"Shu Wuxi, you are so brave - how dare you..." Kunwu was obviously going to raise an army to hold him accountable.
"How dare you use the Immortal Locking Ribbon to trap him? Or did you let me find him?"
Shu Wuxi's voice was normal, but it was filled with pressure. Lu Xiaochan felt a chill in her heart when she heard it. Kunwu on the other side was speechless for a while.
"You always knew where he was." Shu Wuxi's voice was cold.
Kunwu on the opposite side remained silent.
"The Tailing Qingyuan Curse in Lushu Town was set by you. In addition to preventing evil spirits from invading, it was also to prevent me from finding him." Shu Wuxi said.
Lu Xiaochan was stunned! It turned out that the curse was actually set by Kunwu! And it was to prevent Shu Wuxi from finding him!
If it weren't for this great curse, Shu Wuxi wouldn't have to capture the spiritual beast named Biluo, nor would he have to lure Lu Xiaochan's soul back to find out where he was.
And Lu Xiaochan thought Kunwu's voice sounded like an old beggar who was choked to death by peanuts - that should be correct, right
This old liar is the medical master of Tailing Pavilion!
Lu Xiaochan's mind was in a mess and she couldn't figure out what had happened to her over the past ten years!
"You once promised me that you would tell me any news about him. You lied to me." Shu Wuxi's voice became even colder, revealing a bone-chilling chill, even... murderous intent.
Kunwu looked at Lu Xiaochan and said only one sentence: "Xiaochan, come here."
When Lu Xiaochan heard this, Kunwu really knew him!
He was about to stand up, but remembered that Shu Wuxi had not agreed yet, so he immediately sat back down.
I won't listen to you, old liar!
"Come here." Seeing that Lu Xiaochan didn't move, Kunwu reached out to grab Lu Xiaochan's shoulder, but Shu Wuxi raised his hand to block it.
Kunwu was about to cast a spell again, and Shu Wuxi's other hand was about to touch Lu Xiaochan's neck. Kunwu was startled and immediately withdrew his hand: "No!"
"If you don't want me to touch him, then cure his eyes now. After that, I will take him away."
Kunwu was stunned for a long time, took a breath, raised his wrist, poured a cup of tea, but suddenly splashed it towards Lu Xiaochan.
"oops!"
This time, Shu Wuxi did not block it for Lu Xiaochan. The tea fell on Lu Xiaochan's body, as if attracted by some force, condensing into thin streams from his hair, cheeks, neck, and shoulders, and actually flowed into Lu Xiaochan's ears.
In an instant, Lu Xiaochan could hear nothing but the gurgling sound of water.
"There's water in my ears! Water!" Lu Xiaochan climbed up, tilted his head, and hopped back and forth on one leg.
But the water in my ears seemed to have taken root and couldn't be jumped out no matter how hard I tried.
"Where are you taking him?" Kunwu put down the teacup and looked at Shu Wuxi coldly.
"No intentional realm."
"You're crazy... Shu Wuxi... You're really crazy... I spent so much effort to save his Dan Yuan, but his cultivation back then had long since dissipated. Without cultivation, how could he withstand the pressure of the sword power of the Wuyi Sword Sea? His Dan Yuan would crack! If you take him to the Wuyi Realm, you're going to take his life!" Kunwu gritted his teeth and picked up the teacup and threw it at Shu Wuxi.
Shu Wuxi sat still, unmoved.
The teacup was blocked by the spiritual pressure suddenly released by Shu Wuxi. It fell on the tea table without touching Shu Wuxi at all.
"When you took away his Dan Yuan, you told me that you would take me to see him once his body was reshaped. But you didn't." Shu Wuxi also raised his eyes and looked at Kunwu.
At that moment, the originally quiet gaze seemed as if thousands of sword intentions were rushing towards it, ready to turn Kunwu into ashes.
Kunwu clenched his fingers and glanced at Lu Xiaochan who was still rubbing his ears.
"So what if I see him? Can you touch him? If you touch him, he will be burned by the flames of chaos. I worked so hard to reshape his body for him, how can I let you destroy it!"
"I won't touch him." Shu Wuxi's voice was still as calm.
"You won't touch him? You can endure it for a while, three to five years, dozens of times! Can you endure it for a hundred years? A living person is right in front of you, and you don't want to touch him?"
At first Kunwu was very angry, but gradually he calmed down, and his voice was filled with helplessness, even pleading.
"I can bear it." Shu Wuxi replied.
Kunwu shook his head, as if he had heard some huge joke.
"If you can resist touching him, you can naturally resist looking for him or seeing him. You know very well that his eyes cannot be cured. They were burned by the fire of chaos. Even if you dig out your own eyes and replace them with his, he still won't be able to see."
Shu Wuxi remained silent.
"I also understand Xiao Chan's character. At the beginning, he couldn't stand it when I only let him stay in Wuyi Realm for three days. On the ninth day, he cried and wanted to jump down from Wuyi Sword Sea! I came to your house nine times, but you insisted on not letting me take him away..."
"But after that, he never said he was leaving again."
Kunwu chuckled: "My junior brother has no interest in cultivating the Way of Immortality. What he likes most is to see the three thousand colors of the colorful world and study the cycle of growth of all things. Can you give it to him?"
"Then I will stay. He can watch his three thousand worlds and I will watch him." Shu Wuxi replied.
"What? What about the Wuyi Sword Sea? If you don't stay in Wuyi Realm, if the sword sea collapses, all the people in the world will be submerged! You... you are..."
"Ah, so this is possible." Shu Wuxi turned his head.
Kunwu felt a chill down his spine. He looked at Shu Wuxi hastily, trying to read something from those eyes that were as deep as the sea of glass, but he only felt fear.
"You...what do you want to do..."
"Didn't you say that Xiaochan couldn't bear to see all the creatures in the world grow? If they are destroyed, there will be nothing to be nostalgic about."
Shu Wuxi raised his hand, and Kunwu grabbed his wrist.
"What do you want to do?"
"I left my sword in the Unconscious Realm, which shocked the Unconscious Sword Sea. Now that I have withdrawn my sword, the Sword Sea will collapse..."
"Don't do this! I'll help you! I'll help you!"
Kunwu was afraid that he would really summon the sword back. If that happened, he would be a sinner to all the people.
"Oh? How can you help me?" Shu Wuxi slowly raised his eyes and looked at Kunwu.
At that moment, Kunwu realized that Shu Wuxi was threatening him.
Lu Xiaochan was still here, how could he let the unintentional sword sea collapse? He was the one who fell into his trap.
"You... you let him stay with me..."
"No." Shu Wuxi's answer was cold.
"I won't hide him anymore. There's still the Immortal Locking Silk on his wrist. You can find him no matter where in the sky or in the underworld. It doesn't matter where I hide, right?"
Kunwu looked at Shu Wuxi and felt as if he was talking to an emotionless jade statue.
"His six hundred years of cultivation have only been dispersed, not gone. I will teach him the cultivation methods of Tailing Pavilion, and with the help of elixirs, it will be very fast to recover these six hundred years of cultivation! Then... then you can naturally take him back to Wuyi Realm if you want."
Kunwu's hands were shaking. If Shu Wuxi refused to do so, he really didn't know what to do.
"If I had known this, I wouldn't have done it in the first place."
Shu Wuxi looked towards Kunwu. His eyes were deep and bottomless, and there was a hint of obsession around him.
"If... you didn't have Xiaochan's Tailing Jingkong Great Mantra on you, which protects you from all evil... I would really have thought you were..."
Kunwu realized that he had said something wrong and stopped talking immediately.
"What do you think I am?"
"The evil god... Chaos."
After saying these two words, Kunwu felt as if Shu Wushi's spiritual pressure was falling straight down from the sky. Kunwu's scalp went numb and he couldn't straighten his back.
"Since Xiaochan was injured by the chaos fire, I will suppress it for the rest of my life and will not let it hurt him again."
Shu Wuxi always keeps his word, and Kunwu breathed a sigh of relief.
Lu Xiaochan jumped for a long time, but the water in her ears didn't come out. She was anxious and wanted to touch Shu Wuxi everywhere.
Seeing that his fingertips were about to touch Shu Wuxi's hair, Kunwu was so scared that he was about to pounce on him. Shu Wuxi turned sideways, grabbed Lu Xiaochan by the waist with his arm, but was very careful not to touch Lu Xiaochan's hair and skin through her clothes.
He took the teacup with his other hand and lifted it up gently. The water in Lu Xiaochan's ears was sucked away and fell back into the teacup.
Lu Xiaochan rubbed her ears and suddenly realized: "What secrets are you talking about? You deliberately don't let me hear it!"
Kunwu immediately smiled and said, "What secret is there? I'm just teasing you, little kid!"
Although Lu Xiaochan couldn't see, she faced the direction of Kunwu and said nothing.
Kunwu felt numb all over when he looked at him, and asked with a smile: "What's wrong?"
Lu Xiaochan snorted lightly and pulled the corner of his mouth: "Old beggar, you are very good!"
Kunwu was stunned: "You little kid! You have no respect for your elders!"
"Still pretending! I can smell the scent of peanuts and aged liquor on you! Didn't you choke to death on the peanuts? Do you really think I can't recognize your voice? Can't smell your scent? I can recognize you even if you were burned to ashes!"
Lu Xiaochan crossed her arms. She was originally very respectful towards the Immortal Lord Kunwu. After all, he was the medical immortal who was begging to meet her but was not allowed to. But when Lu Xiaochan found out that he was just an old beggar, she was disappointed beyond words.
"Oh... I recognized you! Xiaochan, my little darling!" Kunwu's expression changed immediately, and he smiled like a flower. He even wanted to pinch Lu Xiaochan's cheek, but when Shu Wuxi's gaze swept over, Kunwu withdrew his hand immediately.
"Who is your little darling? Tell me! Why are you here pretending to be an old beggar?" Lu Xiaochan was furious.
"Of course... it's to take good care of you! Have you forgotten that I raised you with my own hands?" Kunwu looked heartbroken.
"I don't believe you! If you want to take care of me, why don't you bring me here?"
"Because... because..." Kunwu looked at Shu Wuxi and thought, wasn't the reason he didn't bring Lu Xiaochan here just to avoid Shu Wuxi
Kunwu's eyes lit up, and he suddenly thought of a good reason: "Of course it's because of the old locust tree! It gathers the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. You can only be strong and healthy if you grow up beside it! Aren't you here to treat your eyes? The spirituality of the old locust tree will help you restore your sight!"
"What? Why didn't you tell me earlier? The old locust tree has been chopped down by the Chen family and made into coffin boards!"
"Ah? That's such a pity..."
"What happened after that? Why did you pretend to be dead? Only you could come up with such an outrageous way to die by choking on peanuts!" Lu Xiaochan felt that all the sadness she had experienced over the years wasted. Isn't the old beggar alive and well
"Such an outrageous way of death, don't you believe it?"
"What?" Lu Xiaochan grabbed the teapot on the table and was about to hit him.
Kunwu swayed left and right, opened his arms, and prepared to catch his teapot.
"Xiao Chan, look at me... I have so many pills to refine every day... I just happened to get a magical herb, and I want to refine it into this pill for you. But this medicine needs to be refined for 49 years, and I have to stay here. I thought, you are so old now, although you can't see, but you can eat and drink by yourself... I might as well pretend to be dead and come back to refine the pill!"
Kunwu used all his skills in fooling Lu Xiaochan, speaking fluently and without any stuttering.
"I don't believe you! Then why did you pretend to be dead? Can't you just pretend that you had something to do and leave?"
Lu Xiaochan still held the teapot and swung it around, ready to hit him hard by surprise.
"Xiao Chan! You see, we have a deep friendship. If I said I had to leave Lushu Town for something, you would definitely follow me with tears in your eyes, right? I can't take you with me, you have to stay there and absorb the essence of the old locust tree! So it's better to suffer a short pain than a long one. Once you die, you won't miss me anymore! Just think about it, how surprised you will be to see me again after decades!"
"Just keep making up stories!" Lu Xiaochan raised the teapot with both hands and smashed it hard.
"Oh my goodness!" Kunwu quickly caught his teapot.
Lu Xiaochan pulled the lock fairy silk and walked towards the door: "Let's go! He is a liar! If he could cure my eyes, he would have cured them long ago!"
"Hey! Hey! Hey! Xiaochan, don't go!" Kunwu walked around the table and tried to stop him.
Shu Wuxi sat upright in his original place. With a gentle tug, Suoxian Ling pulled Lu Xiaochan back and he fell back to his original place.
"Xiaochan, only he can heal you."
Lu Xiaochan sat there with his head down, tears falling unconsciously, and he sniffed hard.
"Why are you crying?" Shu Wuxi turned sideways. He wanted to wipe Lu Xiaochan's tears, but he couldn't touch him.
Kunwu came around and quickly wiped his tears: "Oh! Why are you crying? It's been so many years and you haven't grown up yet? I'm not really dead! You should be smiling now!"
Lu Xiaochan stretched out her arms and hugged him tightly, with her snot and tears all over him.
Kunwu opened his eyes wide, looking at Shu Wuxi's cold and gloomy gaze, and suddenly felt that he had been crushed to ashes by the invisible sword energy. He had no choice but to stand there, patting Lu Xiaochan on the back, and then said to Shu Wuxi: "He took the initiative to come over and hug me!"
"I burn paper money for you every year! I beg for peanuts and give them to you! I can't bear to eat them when I'm hungry! How can you lie to me like this!"
"I won't lie to you again! I really won't lie to you again!"
"Stop it! If you weren't lying, you would have been struck by lightning long ago! You old liar! Why didn't you tell me? So that I could feel proud too!"
The author has something to say: So this chapter answers the questions that the babies have always had. If you didn’t understand it, you can go back and read it again.
Panggua knows that many babies only watch the interaction and don’t read the story in detail, so Panggua summarizes it directly.
First, Xiao Chan is not the reincarnation of Li Chejun, he is Li Che himself, the body reshaped by Kunwu using Li Che's elixir.
Second, Shu Wuxi will not be possessed by the devil, because he has Li Che's "Tailing Jingkong Great Curse", which makes him immune to all evil - this is the super cheat that Xiaochan left for Shu Wuxi. (There is only one sentence in the article, I guess many people omitted it)
Third, Kunwu is an old beggar. He left Xiaochan to avoid Shu Wuxi's pursuit. He also set up a Qingyuan spell to prevent Shu Wuxi from finding Xiaochan. So the babies who have been blaming Shu Wuxi for not being able to find Xiaochan... can say sorry to brother Wuxi. It's all Kunwu's fault.
