"What's the rush? Isn't it better to let Xue 'er rest for a few more days? "Gu Zheng asked curiously.
"I know it's a little difficult, but I still want to leave this place as soon as possible. Besides, she'll feel uncomfortable here, and it'll affect her future." Qing Xuan pointed upwards.
Although they would not be looked down on by the higher-ups because of Gu Zheng, Xue 'er was still too weak now. Even with Gu Zheng's protection, she would not be able to withstand the pressure from the higher-ups.
It would be better if they were in a normal city, but in a place like this, it would cause irreversible damage to Xue 'er.
Gu Zheng looked back at Xue 'er and found that her body was indeed trembling slightly, but she did not show it. Instead, she was trying her best to suppress it.
"Alright! Then I won't keep you! "Gu Zheng sighed helplessly. He had indeed neglected this problem.
"Let's go, Xue 'er. When you're done with your cultivation, come find him. You must believe that you'll become even more outstanding by then. Maybe you won't like him!" Qing Xuan said with a smile.
Because the tribe needed the blood of a pure and holy woman as a sacrifice, he found out that she had given birth to a child and was no longer pure. Fortunately, he found out that she had a girl and immediately sent him to find her.
This kind of thing was extremely beneficial to Xue 'er, and it was a win-win situation. It was specially prepared for the talented geniuses of the clan. If Xue' er didn't go, then the clan would suffer a great loss. In that case, the things prepared for the activation couldn't be wasted. Fortunately, he had managed to find her.
Xue 'er looked at the person in front of her. The aura from him and the bloodline connection let her know that he was her mother's brother. Now, she felt a natural sense of closeness to him. It was completely different from before.
She also knew that she could not stay here for too long. After looking at Zhao Man longingly, she leaped up and leaned on Qing Xuan's shoulder.
A layer of green shield covered her, helping to offset some of the invisible pressure, and her complexion became much better.
"Farewell!"
Qing Xuan cupped his hands at Gu Zheng, and then walked out without looking back. Once he left the courtyard, a green light flashed on his body, and he disappeared from the place.
"They've all left? Sister Xue 'er also left! "Shuang' er looked around and said with some disappointment.
"Miss Shuang 'er, don't worry. We will always be by your side." Fifth Sister stepped forward and comforted Shuang' er.
"That's right. Miss Shuang 'er, you still have us. You won't be alone." The Six Friends of Qing City said one after another.
"Thank you, everyone." Seeing so many people care about her, Shuang 'er also felt warm in her heart.
"Miss Shuang 'er, don't worry. I, Luo Wei, will always be your shield and protect you for the rest of your life." Luo Wei said, not wanting to be left behind. Shuang 'er blushed and ran back to her room.
Luo Wei's eloquence and sincerity towards Shuang 'er had already left a good impression on her.
Gu Zheng looked at the courtyard and knew that it was time to make arrangements for them. Because he was going to leave this place, he called Ah Shui and Lan over.
"The two of you can go to the Great Snow Mountain in the future. With your Big Sister Shuang 'er taking care of you, I feel at ease."
"Master, where are you going? You don't want us anymore? " Lan was still immersed in the sad atmosphere just now. When she saw this scene, her small face darkened and her big eyes asked in surprise.
"Of course I have to do some important things. The two of you are far from enough. Besides, I have already taught you all that I can. You just need to cultivate slowly." Gu Zheng shook his head and said to them.
On the other hand, Ah Shui was not so pretentious. Although he was a little reluctant in his heart because Gu Zheng treated them like a second parent, he still asked straightforwardly.
"If we become stronger, can we go and find you?"
When Gu Zheng heard this, he laughed in surprise. However, he still said with a smile.
"Of course. When you become stronger, of course, you can come and find me at any time. But at least you have to be stronger than me now."
"Don't worry. My talent is so good. The two of us will soon catch up to you. When the time comes, we will help you fight and protect you!" Ah Shui did not know how long it would take to reach this step in the future. He felt that the two of them had reached the Three Realms in a short time. In a few years, they would be able to reach Gu Zheng's level.
"Haha! Well, when the time comes, you and Ah Lan will protect me together. I will enjoy my life. " Gu Zheng was also amused by the two of them. "But before that, the two of you will follow Shuang 'er and your companion Yu Tian. When the time comes, the two of you will be together."
"Okay." The two little heads nodded vigorously.
After dealing with the two little fellows, he had nothing to worry about. The smart Shuang 'er probably already knew that they would leave here sooner or later. That was why she agreed to help them go to the Great Snow Mountain.
At this time, Gu Zheng saw Xiao Le in the distance winking at him as if he had something to tell him.
After sending the two little fellows away, Gu Zheng walked in front of Xiao Le and asked in confusion.
"What's the matter?"
At this time, only the two of them were left in the courtyard. The others had gone back to their rooms. After a day of torment, the sky was almost dark.
"I want to tell you a piece of news that is not too bad." At this time, Xiao Le also put away his usual crazy and silly look and said with a calm face.
Gu Zheng glanced at the door. A shield rose around them to prevent anyone from spying on them. Then, he asked.
"What is it? Not too bad? Could it be that something bad has happened? "Gu Zheng asked curiously.
"You gave this weapon to the owner, right? Did you fuse something with it later?" Xiao Le did not answer directly. Instead, he asked Gu Zheng directly.
"Well, yes. Previously, I obtained a flame bow. I extracted the essence from it and fused it with the spear." Gu Zheng stared blankly for a moment before remembering that he had once encountered a weapon that Lian Rong had abandoned. Later on, after obtaining Zhao Man's spear, in order to pass it to him, he had given him the bow.
Of course, at that time, he did something to it. In the end, only the bow was left.
"What's wrong? Is there a problem with my technique? Is this spear also broken? "Gu Zheng looked at the spear in his hand, but did not find anything different.
"No, I mean, there may be hope for Zhao Man to be resurrected." Xiao Le did not keep Gu Zheng in suspense and said directly, "Maybe he is not destined to die. There is a remnant of his soul. I don't know how it was sucked into this spear. I discovered it at the beginning, but at that time, he was just a remnant soul without consciousness. He was nourished in this spear and only had some instinctive consciousness. I thought it would take several years for him to recover. Of course, it is also possible that he will not be able to recover."
"Just now, when Xue 'er wanted to leave, he suddenly woke up completely from inside. He actually wanted to control the spear to leave with him. Of course, I stopped him. If she really took it away, I am afraid he would not live for more than a few days. Now, I want to ask you, do you have anything related to the Phoenix Blood on you? Or something similar. His early awakening this time caused him to fall into an extremely weak state, and now he is in a coma. Originally, he could have preserved his spear, but there is very little Phoenix Power in it, and now it is unable to maintain his state. If not, he will completely dissipate in a few years. "
Xiao Le told Gu Zheng everything in one breath so that Gu Zheng could understand what he meant.
"Zhao Man is not dead?!" Gu Zheng was completely shocked this time. He quickly took the spear and examined it carefully. Indeed, he found a weak remnant soul. If he was careless, even if he held the spear, he would not be able to find it because it was too weak. Moreover, it seemed to have fallen into an unconscious state, and was unable to communicate with him.
Fortunately, Xiao Le's soul was abnormally strong. In addition to his special appearance, he existed in Zhao Man's body. There was a trace of a connection between them, which was why he was able to detect it immediately.
"Originally, I wanted to wait until I had time to tell you about him. I could have waited until my cultivation recovered a little and then slowly resurrected him. Then, I would have found a suitable body and returned his body to him. But after such a thing happened, this spear can no longer protect him. That's why I told you in advance!"
"That's great!" When Gu Zheng saw this, he was not worried at all. With a thought, a white flame burned on his wrist.
"This is?" Xiao Le could tell at a glance how terrifying the power contained in this white flame was. Moreover, he could feel a trace of extreme power from it.
"That's right, so don't worry about the lack of power!" Gu Zheng smiled slightly. The flame on his wrist became smaller and smaller, gradually condensing to the size of a soybean. Although it was much smaller, it had condensed all the power of the Byakugan, and its degree of terror was much more terrifying than before.
Gu Zheng shook lightly, and the white flame, which was like a white dot, merged into the spear tip under Gu Zheng's control, and began to surge inside bit by bit.
The entire spear suddenly shone with a red light, illuminating the entire courtyard. Fortunately, the barrier from before was still there. Otherwise, it would have attracted the attention of the entire city.
"None of you are allowed to come out!" When Gu Zheng saw this, he immediately shouted at the crowd. Such a conspicuous thing, otherwise, they would have come out to see what was going on.
As soon as Gu Zheng's voice fell, some of the opened doors were tightly closed, making a loud sound. They quickly hid inside, but some people secretly looked out from the windows. Gu Zheng did not ask them. At this time, his mind was completely immersed in it, and he began to control and remodel the spear.
After a long while, the red light of the spear gradually dimmed, and finally returned to its previous appearance. If one looked carefully, the red lines on the spear were brighter, and the entire spear was actually more stable. One could vaguely see a flame burning on the surface.
"Good stuff. This spear, after being condensed, is probably one of the best among the Celestial Immortals. Even at the early stage of Jin Xian, it can still be used." After Xiao Le looked at the finished product, he felt a little and knew that the power of the spear had more than doubled.
"Of course." Gu Zheng was slightly out of breath. Suddenly continuing to condense the spear took a great toll on his mind. Of course, the most important thing was the Li Huan guide. He had used up almost one-tenth of his essence to condense it. At that moment, the red line on his wrist had clearly dimmed. Without the recovery of the sword, he would not be able to return to his peak state.
"Good. This way, there will be no problems with Zhao Man's soul. Moreover, it will greatly speed up his recovery." Gu Zheng's face lit up. If only he had told Xue 'er earlier. Unfortunately, she had left too early.
Still, this was good. After all, even with Zhao Man in this state, Gu Zheng estimated that he would need to rest for tens of years before waking up. When that time came, things would be much easier.
"Senior Xiao, where do you plan to go in the future?" Gu Zheng took a deep breath and asked tentatively.
"Don't worry. I plan to join the Great Snow Mountain and stay there to recover my cultivation. The thing you left me will definitely allow me to cultivate to become an Immortal within tens of years. When that time comes, I will find another body and return this body to your friend. With such a good foundation, he will probably be able to become an Immortal very quickly. Even if he does not have a great opportunity to advance to Jin Xian in the future, this is the only way!"
Xiao Le could tell what Gu Zheng was thinking at a glance. He directly said it to prevent him from thinking too much.
He was saved by Gu Zheng. He would definitely not do anything that he should not do to his friend. Instead, he had to think for him and repay Gu Zheng's kindness.
After all, it would take too long for him to return to Golden Immortal. By the time he really wanted to help him, he would have already advanced to Golden Immortal.
That's right. Xiao Le was absolutely sure that Gu Zheng would be able to advance to Golden Immortal. It was only a matter of time.
"Thank you. I will leave this place in a few days. In the future, please take care of my friends. Sorry for the trouble!" Gu Zheng thanked from the bottom of his heart.
Although he had saved Gu Zheng, he would not use it to blackmail him or even ask him to repay him. However, Xiao Le had already done it for him. How could he not be grateful to Gu Zheng?
Xiao Le looked at Gu Zheng's sincere expression and saw how Gu Zheng thanked him for saving a group of ordinary people. He felt that he was lucky to be Gu Zheng's friend. However, he did not know that someone else had the same thoughts as him.
"It's nothing. It's not a big deal."
"Then I will entrust everything to you. When he wakes up, remember to tell him the truth."
"Don't worry. I will do that even if you don't tell me!"
Gu Zheng and Xiao Le spoke for a while more before returning to their rooms.
Gu Zheng was about to meditate for a while to recover his mind when he suddenly heard footsteps coming from his door. Then, his door was silently opened.
As soon as the figure entered and before the door was closed, Gu Zheng shouted in a low voice, "It's so late. Why are you here instead of resting?"
"It's not that I can't sleep. I have something to ask you." Seeing that she had been discovered, Shuang 'er closed the door and sat on the stool in the room. She also turned on the light in the room and let the dim light fill the room again.
She knew that she couldn't outsmart him, but there was a cat scratching at her heart, making her itch. So after thinking about it for a long time, she still got up to ask Gu Zheng. Otherwise, she wouldn't be able to sleep for the whole night.
"What is it that you have to come here in the middle of the night to ask about it?" Gu Zheng also got down from the bed and sat by the table.
"I want to ask, what are you doing at night? You are so mysterious. I saw you casting a spell on the spear!" Shuang 'er said straightforwardly.
"Oh, I am strengthening the spear." Gu Zheng poured out the tea but found that it had already turned cold. Hearing Shuang 'er's question, he said without changing his expression and put down the tea again.
"I know that Zhao Man is dead. The person you resurrected is actually another person!" Shuang 'er suddenly said something shocking.
"How do you know?" Gu Zheng did not admit it, but did not deny it. He just asked Shuang 'er.
"Because that person has a small habit. Although he usually looks silly, I can feel that his eyes are carefully looking around. Although he hides it very well, I still found that he sometimes inadvertently rubbed his left foot on the ground. Although he sometimes notices it and tries hard to control it, I still noticed it. This is obviously different from what you said. It seems like there is another person."
Shuang 'er said confidently, but she also carefully observed Gu Zheng's expression. Unfortunately, Gu Zheng's expression did not change at all, making her feel very uncertain.
After a long while, Gu Zheng opened his mouth to speak.
"No wonder Yuan Li let you inherit the position of the Great Snow Mountain. I didn't expect you to be able to observe such subtle things."
Although Gu Zheng did not admit that Zhao Man was possessed by someone else, his words indirectly admitted that Shuang 'er was right.
This made Shuang 'er feel both surprised and happy. She was happy that there was no problem with her judgment. Although she had said it with certainty, she was still a little uncertain. After all, although she had said it with confidence, it could have been a habit of Zhao Man's body. After all, she didn't know much about Zhao Man.
She was surprised that Gu Zheng actually admitted that Zhao Man had been replaced by someone else. Didn't that mean that there was another person in Zhao Man's body? Then Zhao Man was not resurrected by Gu Zheng, but completely dead?
Thinking of this, her eyes became very anxious. If that was the case, then Sister Xue 'er's efforts would be in vain. Wasn't this lying to her?
"Now that things have come to this, I will tell you that I let a senior's soul temporarily occupy Zhao Man's body. But don't get agitated, Zhao Man is not dead." Gu Zheng saw Shuang 'er stand up and quickly said.
"Zhao Man is now sleeping in the long spear, but his situation is not optimistic. He needs a long time to recuperate. That senior promised me that he would help Zhao Man recover in the future and teach him the Immortal Cultivation Method."
Gu Zheng told Shuang 'er the contents of his discussion with Xiao Le. To be honest, if it was a day earlier, he did not know how to face Shuang' er.
"That's good. Just wait a few more decades and you will be able to see Brother Zhao Man!" Shuang 'er said happily.
"Well, it's so late. You should go back and rest!" Gu Zheng said to Shuang 'er.
"Well, but before that, I have something to give you!" Shuang 'er just thought of something and then sat down again.
Then she slowly reached her hand into her bosom. Her clothes had been pulled to the side, revealing her snow-white neck.
