"… Yunzhu, you have to promise me …" Long Ying, the sect master of Phoenix Cry Cave, who had already turned into an old woman but whose face was strangely crimson at this moment, tightly grabbed Bai Yunzhu's arm with her right hand. Her eyes were wide open as she stared at her and hissed.
This was the scene that Sei Itō saw when he appeared in the main hall.
"Eldest Senior Sister." Bai Yunzhu sobbed.
"Yunzhu, promise me." Long Ying hissed again.
Because she used too much strength, blue veins and blood vessels appeared on her forehead, cheeks, and the back of her hands.
"I …" Bai Yunzhu bit her lips, her face full of unwillingness. But when she saw her eldest senior sister staring at her, Bai Yunzhu could not say anything to refuse. In the end, she could only nod helplessly.
"Then I can leave without worry." After receiving Bai Yunzhu's promise, Long Ying smiled with relief.
As she spoke, Long Ying turned her head slightly and her gaze fell on Sei Itō. She opened her mouth and wanted to say something, but because of the previous matter, she had used up the last of her energy. After opening and closing her mouth for a long time, she could not say a word.
Then, Long Ying's eyes became slack and gradually lost the light of life.
"Pa."
Long Ying's arm, which was tightly gripping Bai Yunzhu's arm, fell to the ground.
"Eldest Senior Sister …" Bai Yunzhu's lips trembled as she softly called out.
However, at this time, Long Ying, who had completely lost her life force, could not respond to her words at all.
"Eldest Senior Sister …" Bai Yunzhu's eyes reddened and sparkling tears silently flowed from the corners of her eyes.
Seeing Bai Yunzhu sink into sorrow, Sei Itō did not say anything and turned to walk out of the main building. He walked towards the mountain prison that he had been to before.
Itō Sei was familiar with the place, so he quickly entered the mountain prison again.
Seeing Sei Itō walk into the cave, the disciples of Mingfeng Mountain who had recovered some of their vitality looked at him warily. Sei Itō didn't care about that. Instead, he looked at the two corpses that were no longer humanoid. His entire body was a mess of flesh and blood. It looked like a corpse that had been torn apart by some wild beast.
Sei Itō didn't even need to guess to know that this was the result of the female disciples venting their frustrations in the cave.
"The enemies outside have been dealt with. You can go out now." Retracting his gaze, he looked at the female disciples in the cave and said.
"Also, your Martial Aunt Bai Yunzhu is in the main building."
After that. Sei Itō ignored the female disciples who were wary of him and walked out of the cave.
Seeing Sei Itō quickly disappear into the mountain path, the female disciples couldn't help but look at each other. They didn't know if they should listen to this strange man's words.
"Let's go. If it's a blessing, it's not a curse. If it's a curse, we can't avoid it. Moreover, this man was able to make Martial Aunt Bai call him Mister. His cultivation is definitely not weak. If he wants to deal with us, he doesn't need to go through so much trouble. He can just do it directly. "At this moment, a female disciple who looked more shrewd said.
"That's right." Another disciple agreed.
The other disciples who had figured it out nodded their heads one after another in agreement.
Thus, the group no longer hesitated and walked out of the cave. He quickly walked towards the main building, which was the only building in the entire stronghold that was still lit.
"Ta, ta, ta, ta …"
A series of footsteps sounded clearly.
Bai Yunzhu's expression changed when she heard the footsteps. She immediately recovered from her sadness and turned her head to look at the door with vigilance in her eyes. It was at this moment that the group of female disciples appeared at the door.
"Martial Aunt (Uncle) Bai …" Seeing Bai Yunzhu, the female disciples happily called out.
"Why did you all come out? Didn't I say that you are not allowed to come out before I go to find you!?" Bai Yunzhu said with anger in her eyes.
She couldn't be blamed for being so angry. These disciples were the hope of the sect's revival in the future. Losing any one of them was unacceptable to her! Not to mention that she had just lost her Martial Sisters. She, who had deep feelings for these disciples, didn't want to see anyone in trouble. Therefore, it was no surprise that she was so angry at these disciples who didn't listen to her orders and risked their lives to come out.
Hearing Bai Yunzhu's reprimand, the expressions on the faces of the female disciples couldn't help but stagnate. They lowered their heads one after another.
"I asked them to come out." But at this moment, Sei Itō's voice sounded.
Bai Yunzhu frowned. She turned her head to look at Sei Itō. Obviously, Sei Itō's actions this time made her feel very dissatisfied!
"Just when you were absent-minded just now, I have already cleaned up all the enemies outside, so there is no danger in the mountain village at this time. There is no need to let them hide in that cave." Sei Itō explained in a low voice, "And …"
Speaking of this, Sei Itō's eyes moved slightly, and his gaze fell on Long Ying's body.
Seeing Sei Itō's gaze, Bai Yunzhu's expression changed slightly. She nodded silently, then turned to look at the female disciples and said, "Come over and pay your respects to the sect leader."
"What!?"
"This is the sect leader!?"
"What happened to the sect leader?"
"Pay respects?"
"Could it be …"
Cries of disbelief and discussions immediately rang out from the crowd of disciples.
Bai Yunzhu nodded slightly, confirming their words.
"Sect leader!" Seeing Bai Yunzhu's actions, the female disciples cried out in grief, one by one rushed to Bai Yunzhu's side with a sad face, knelt down, and cried softly.
In an instant, the entire main building was filled with a sad atmosphere.
Fortunately, Bai Yunzhu, who had recovered from her absent-minded state, had also recovered to the state that a Gold Core cultivator should have. She understood that this was not a place to stay for long, so she quickly stopped the crying of the disciples and began to arrange for them to pack up the entire mountain village, and began to arrange for them to pack up the valuable items that only they knew about.
Then, Bai Yunzhu, who had sent the disciples out, had a thought and put Long Ying's body into her hundred treasures pouch.
"Mr. Itō, please follow me." Bai Yunzhu, who stood up, exuded a cold aura that kept people away, and said lightly. Then, without waiting for Sei Itō's response, she turned and walked out directly.
Sei Itō, who knew that she had just experienced a great sorrow, didn't care about her attitude, curled his lips, and slowly followed.
Under the lead of Bai Yunzhu, the two left the main building, and walked along a slope on the right side of the main building. After walking for about ten meters, they turned left, and a very hidden mountain path appeared in front of the two.
The two walked on the path, and after walking for about a minute or so, they stopped in front of a female statue embedded in a huge stone wall.
Bai Yunzhu stepped forward and respectfully bowed to the female statue, then walked to the front of the female statue, bent down, and squatted down, and threw away the soil under the female statue's left foot.
Under Bai Yunzhu's digging, not long after, a jar-shaped object covered with talismans was pulled out.
It had to be said that this method of hiding things was really unconventional. Probably no one would have thought that a cultivation sect's most precious treasure would be buried in a place as simple as an ordinary person raising poisonous insects, without any restrictions or formations to hide it.
Bai Yunzhu, who was holding the jar, stood up, turned around, and returned to Sei Itō's side, and handed the jar to Sei Itō, and said, "This is the secret altar that seals the substitute poisonous insect. When you need to use it, just open the seal and wake up the poisonous insect inside. But you need to pay attention to one thing. Before it wakes up, soak it in your blood, so that the poisonous insect will feed on your blood after it wakes up and form a connection with you. "
"The method is simple." Sei Itō, who took the jar, chuckled.
"This is for you." Then, Bai Yunzhu took out a jade slip from her treasure pouch and threw it to Sei Itō.
"What is this?" Sei Itō, who casually took the jade slip, was puzzled.
"It's my Mingfeng Cave's sacrificial method. Without it, even if you form a connection with the substitute poisonous insect, you won't be able to absorb the poisonous insect into your body and use it to prolong life." Bai Yunzhu said faintly.
Sei Itō nodded, and put away the poisonous insect altar and jade slip.
"Okay, the substitute poisonous insect has been given to you. As for the remaining scriptures in the Scripture Pavilion, I will give them to you when we are safe." Bai Yunzhu continued.
"Okay." Sei Itō agreed.
Then, Bai Yunzhu filled the hole she had dug before, and bowed to the female statue again before returning to the village with Sei Itō. But this time, Bai Yunzhu didn't directly return to the main building, but continued to walk in another direction.
Sei Itō didn't say anything, and silently followed.
Just like this, accompanied by a surge of spirit energy, a large garden full of all kinds of spirit herbs and spirit plants appeared in front of Sei Itō and Bai Yunzhu's eyes.
"This is the source of everything, that enclave." Bai Yunzhu looked at the unusually beautiful garden in front of her with a face full of resentment, and she couldn't suppress the resentment in her voice.
After saying this, she ignored Sei Itō and walked straight into the garden. She didn't care if the spirit herbs and spirit plants had matured or not, and directly used a destructive method to pick them one by one, throwing them into her treasure pouch.
Clearly, even if she was resentful of these things, Bai Yunzhu still knew that these things were beneficial to the revival of the sect, so she didn't want to let her enemy get away with it, so she directly used a destructive harvest.
Seeing this, Sei Itō grinned and waved his hand. Under the support of an invisible force, the spirit herbs flew out of the garden with their roots and arrived in front of Sei Itō, and he put them one by one into the Rubik's Cube.
Bai Yunzhu only glanced at Sei Itō's actions, then ignored him and continued her destructive harvest.
Just like that, under the efforts of the two of them, it didn't take long for all the plants in the Spiritual Herbal Garden to be cleaned up, leaving only the bumpy ground to tell the world that there were many good things that once existed here.
Then, the two didn't stay in the garden for long and turned around to return to the village.
