Chapter 73 None of my business
Chapter 73 None of my business
After Xu Shiyi left the meeting hall, he planned to find Bai Yanlan and ask her why she had to be so pretentious. If she had the immortal root, she should just use it.
However, before leaving, he remembered his master's previous request and teleported to the door of Bai Yanlan's room instead. He patiently knocked on the door and said, "I'm Xu Shiyi. Can I come in?"
It was during this time when there was a knock on the door that Xu Shiyi calmed down a little and realized that Bai Yanlan's behavior was human nature, and he was not qualified to question it.
So, when he got permission and walked in again, his expression had softened: “I want to talk to you.”
Bai Yanlan swung her tail, not wanting to bother with the other party: "I have nothing to talk to you about."
"Why did you show your tail?" Xu Shiyi saw the swaying white tail and immediately frowned: "Do you know how dangerous it would be if your identity was exposed?"
Bai Yanlan didn't take it seriously. There were so many spiritual beasts with long tails. As long as she didn't show her iconic crown, no one would have thought that she was a medicinal spiritual beast.
"Why, are you afraid that someone will steal the inner elixir you worked so hard to cultivate?" Bai Yanlan was unhappy with Xu Shiyi and spoke sarcastically: "Don't worry, this is your territory."
Xu Shiyi suppressed his anger again and said, "Junior brother is too soft-hearted. I hope you can go and tell him that you are willing to offer your inner elixir to him."
"As compensation, whatever you want, as long as I can do it, I can give it to you."
"Okay, as long as you dig out your Nascent Soul and give it to me, I can voluntarily offer my Inner Core."
When spiritual beasts reach a certain level, they will form an inner elixir, while for humans, it is a golden elixir. However, after the Nascent Soul stage, the golden elixir will turn into a vivid little person, which is the Nascent Soul.
Bai Yanlan made this request, meaning to exchange pills for pills.
"What do you want a Nascent Soul for?" Aside from self-destructing at critical moments, the Nascent Soul has no other use. "You might as well ask for something more valuable."
"Then you don't have to worry about it. Just tell me whether you want to exchange the Nascent Soul for the Inner Core or not."
Seeing this, Xu Shiyi did not hesitate and simply nodded.
Bai Yanlan didn't react, and even sneered: "You don't mean to say that you are the fourth young master of the sect, born noble, and even a hundred inner pills of medicinal spirit beasts are not as good as your Nascent Soul."
Xu Shiyi interrupted her loudly: "I agree, exchanging Nascent Soul for Inner Core is fair."
"If this is what you really want, I can swear an oath to the heavens. As long as you voluntarily give your inner elixir to my junior brother, I will give you your Nascent Soul. Moreover, I can also promise that I will never repair your Nascent Soul before I help you rebuild your inner elixir."
If the inner elixir can be reshaped, then naturally so can the Nascent Soul. Moreover, humans pay much more attention to repairing the Nascent Soul. Many prescriptions have been developed over the years. For him, it is not a difficult task.
As for the downgrade in quality of the reshaped Nascent Soul, it would not have much impact on him, as it would at most be downgraded to a Quasi-Saint.
Bai Yanlan didn't expect him to really agree, and quickly stopped him from making the vow: "Stop, stop, stop, I want to change one."
What does she need a Nascent Soul that can't do anything, let alone an Inner Core that can be repaired.
"As long as I can cure Xiaotu, you can name any conditions, right?" Bai Yanlan deliberately omitted the inner elixir and only said cure.
"That's right." Xu Shiyi agreed immediately without thinking too much.
"Then let me think about it." Bai Yanlan couldn't think of anything to ask for a moment, so she asked him to leave. "Let's talk about it later. I haven't even found my inner elixir yet."
"Then can you tell Junior Brother that you are willing to offer your inner elixir and that you will never blame him?"
Bai Yanlan rolled her eyes at him: "Do you think I'm volunteering?"
"Do you really think that a little favor can make me willing? I can still get these things with my own ability in the future."
"You brought me here because of a disagreement, and now you want me to say that I did it voluntarily? How can this help you sleep more peacefully at night?"
Bai Yanlan spoke out all the grievances in her heart.
"I know you are wronged in this matter." Xu Shiyi's voice became much softer: "It's just that my junior brother..."
"Just what?" Bai Yanlan put her hands on her hips and glared at Xu Shiyi: "Did I poison him? Or was it because of me that he was poisoned? In the final analysis, does this matter have anything to do with me?"
"There really isn't..."
"Since it doesn't matter, why do you ask me to sacrifice my inner elixir? And why do you insist that I do it voluntarily?"
"Junior brother is kind-hearted. If you don't tell him that it's voluntary, he will definitely not agree to use the inner elixir."
Bai Yanlan was so angry that she said directly: "It's none of my business!"
After saying that, he pushed the person out of the door and closed it.
Although she now knows that her inner elixir does not need to be dug out, Bai Yanlan still feels angry.
Especially since Xu Shiyi insisted that she say she did it voluntarily.
The nameless anger in my heart suddenly rose up.
Just when I was about to recite the Heart Purification Mantra to calm myself down and practice, the door of the room banged again.
Bai Yanlan swept her tail impatiently, lifted up the futon, and slammed it against the door: "Get lost."
"Xiao Yanlan, what's wrong? Did someone make you angry?" Lu Yaogui's voice came from outside the door.
But Bai Yanlan was so angry that she even implicated Lu Yaogui, so she didn't want to open the door at all: "If you have something to say, please say it. If not, I want to practice."
"Haha, I have two good news to tell you." Lu Yaogui's voice was full of joy: "Xiao Yanlan, do you want to change your divine root?"
"So, you're here to negotiate a deal with me, right?" Bai Yanlan suddenly opened the door and looked directly at Lu Yaogui: "Trading the divine root for the inner elixir, haha, what a big deal!"
Hearing Bai Yanlan's words, Lu Yaogui was stunned for a moment, but when he saw Bai Yanlan's face was full of tears and her eyes were red, he felt so distressed that he quickly comforted her:
"No one will dig out your inner elixir, Xiao Yanlan, don't worry, as long as we brothers are here, no one can hurt you."
"I swear on my heart of Taoism that if I use your inner elixir to detoxify, my heart of Taoism will be immediately shattered, my cultivation will be lost, and I will never be able to return to the holy level." Without leaving anyone room for regret, Lu Yaogui made a poisonous oath.
As the words came true, the rules of heaven and earth descended upon Lu Yaogui, and it was obvious that the oath had been fulfilled.
Bai Yanlan was so shocked by this behavior that she even forgot to be angry: "Why, why did you suddenly swear?"
This is not as simple as just being struck by lightning.
"Xiao Yanlan, I absolutely will not take your inner elixir. Master and Senior Brother also agree."
Jin Qisheng and Luo Miao behind him nodded, but because they didn't have time to stop Lu Yaogui from taking the oath, there was not much joy on their faces.
At first, Bai Yanlan thought that Gu Yuanfeng had mentioned that she might be able to detoxify in the future, but seeing their behavior, it didn't seem like that, so she asked tentatively:
"Then what should I do with the poison in your body?"
"It doesn't matter." Lu Yaogui pretended to be relaxed and said, "I've gotten used to it over the years. It's just that the teleportation speed is a little slower, but it's not a big problem."
