After meeting the leader of the foreign races, Yuwen Feng, Chen Luoyang had a rough idea of the enemy's strength.
The result was not optimistic.
The Saber Emperor's first seclusion in his life did not go to waste. His cultivation and strength improved greatly.
If he had not changed his Heavenly Demon Blood to Divine Demon Blood and learned the Divine Demon Fist, the previous Demon Emperor might not be a match for this Saber Emperor.
Of course, if the previous Hierarch had made a breakthrough after his battle with the Sword Pavilion Master, there might still be suspense.
But that was a possibility that could never be proven.
Just like the problem of the Sino-Earth Coalition Army's southern expedition to the Demon Region, Chen Luoyang had to face everything now.
He had a headache.
In this world, martial spirit was very strong. Many people, such as the Saber Emperor, the Sword Emperor, the Female Empress, and even the former Hierarch of the Devil religion, regarded martial arts duels with opponents of the same level as them very seriously.
They would think of killing their opponents.
But killing their opponents was not the only thing.
As martial artists, they had strong confidence in themselves and believed that they could defeat their opponents fair and square.
Crafty plots were not uncommon.
But it was also common to have a fair and square battle.
Therefore, after the battle between the Hierarch of the Devil religion and the Sword Pavilion Master on the Snowy Highlands, he and the leader of the foreign races would fight on the coast of the East Sea.
In order to reduce the impact on the ordinary people, the main battlefield might be moved to the distant sea.
If it was a lose-lose result, everyone might worry about how to swim back …
As for a clear winner and loser, or even life and death, there was nothing much to say.
The sea was the grave of the losers.
The problem was that there were only seven days left before the final battle.
Chen Luoyang estimated that he still needed about 20 days to recover.
If possible, he wished that the final battle could be held a month later.
Heaven had pity on him. He had planned to hide in the main altar for a month without caring about what others thought.
No matter how unstable the outside world was, he would hide until his injuries were healed.
In any case, after the battle at Mount Nanyun, Li Yuanlong and the others in the Central Plains of China would definitely not dare to come to the Southern Expedition for the second time.
Unfortunately, Saber Emperor Yuwen Feng had come out of his closed-door training at this time. Moreover, he had come to look for Hierarch Chen.
You've already been in seclusion for a few months. Why don't you rest for another twenty days before coming out?
Chen Luoyang cursed inwardly.
Previously, he had consumed a large amount of Blood Red Jade Nectar to obtain information on the Sword Emperor Wang Jian through Black Pot.
The wine in the pot was almost used up.
However, after killing Wang Jian, who was at the same level as Emperor Wu, the Blood Red Jade Nectar was replenished.
However, the problem was that the Saber Emperor Yuwen Feng was much stronger than the Sword Emperor Wang Jian in terms of cultivation and strength.
After Chen Luoyang's experiment, the nectar in the lake was not enough to extract information from Yuwen Feng.
Moreover, even if the information was extracted, it was still unknown if there were any weaknesses in the other party's martial arts cultivation that could be exploited.
If there were any weaknesses that could be exploited, would the current him have the ability to take advantage of it?
To forge iron, one must be strong.
Chen Luoyang first asked Black Pot if it could provide him with some methods to speed up his healing.
As a result, the nectar in the pot was still not enough to extract the few elixirs and elixirs that Black Pot had listed.
There were still seven days left. Even if he were to temporarily collect the raw materials to refine the elixirs, he might not be able to guarantee that he would be able to find all the ingredients.
There was still a way that he could think of, but he did not know how effective it would be.
After returning to the Ancient God Peak, Chen Luoyang sat in the side hall that he used to receive guests. He ordered someone to invite a guest over.
Pill Empress Zhuo Qingxi had previously returned to the Ancient God Peak with him.
After returning, Chen Luoyang was busy descending the volcano. He then cleaned up the traitors and spies. Following that, he received news from the Saber Emperor Yuwen Feng.
Hence, Chen Luoyang did not have the time to invite the Pill Empress to meet Ying Qingqing.
The Pill Empress was very calm. She was not impatient. She rested peacefully in the guest room.
It was only now that Chen Luoyang had summoned her that she came to meet him.
"Greetings to Hierarch Chen. I am honored to meet you." The Pill Empress was still wearing a cloak. She only took off her hood after entering the side hall.
"You are welcome." Chen Luoyang said faintly, "I will invite Miss Qing Qing to meet you later. However, there is something that I have to explain in advance."
He looked at the Pill Empress, "When I met Miss Qing Qing earlier, she said that she had lost most of her memories. She only had an impression of things that happened a month ago. She could not remember anything that happened before that."
The Pill Empress raised her eyebrows, "She said that herself?"
Chen Luoyang nodded, "That's right."
Even though the Pill Empress was used to seeing storms, she was still stunned.
She paused for a while before continuing to ask, "If that is the case, she remembers her name?"
"That's right. According to her, that is the only information she remembers about her identity." Chen Luoyang said, "I also felt that it was strange, but I did not investigate further. You are a divine doctor, so you may be able to make a conclusion. I am also curious about why she has Tao Wangji's Haotian Divine Sword."
The Pill Empress pondered for a moment, then said, "I will give it a try. I thank Hierarch Chen again for taking care of Qing Qing."
"No problem." Chen Luoyang waved his hand, "However, Miss Qing Qing is my guest. She can stay or go as she pleases."
In other words, if Ying Qingqing wanted to stay and not leave with the Pill Empress, the Devil religion would not allow the Pill Empress to take her away.
The Pill Empress smiled slightly, "Hierarch Chen worries too much."
Chen Luoyang's expression was indifferent. He nodded at Lao Shou, who was beside him.
Lao Shou immediately retreated and quickly returned with a young girl. It was Ying Qingqing.
He had already spoken to Ying Qingqing, and Ying Qingqing agreed to meet.
After entering and greeting Chen Luoyang, she looked at the Pill Empress.
As for the Pill Empress, she focused her attention on the young woman the moment she walked in.
After seeing her clearly, she was relieved, as if she was glad that her granddaughter was safe.
However, when she noticed that the young girl's gaze was unfamiliar and confused, she frowned.
The Pill Empress' eyes were filled with sorrow, "You don't even recognize your grandmother anymore?"
Ying Qingqing pursed her lips, "… I'm sorry."
The Pill Empress asked, "Qingqing, you … don't believe your grandmother?"
"I believe what you said. I have nothing worth coveting." Ying Qingqing shook her head apologetically, "It's just that I really can't remember."
The Pill Empress held her forehead in distress. She seemed to have aged a little.
She had been through a lot and quickly calmed down. Then, she nodded at Chen Luoyang and placed a hand on Ying Qingqing's wrist.
Ying Qingqing didn't refuse. She stood in front of the Pill Empress Chen Luoyang in Silence.
The Pill Empress thought for a moment, and a worried expression appeared on her face.
She retracted her hand and shook her head. "It really is a sign of losing one's soul."
"Is there a way to cure it?" Chen Luoyang asked.
The Pill Empress didn't reply immediately. Instead, she fell into deep thought.
Chen Luoyang and Ying Qingqing didn't rush her. They waited patiently.
After a long while, the Pill Empress said, "The cause of losing one's soul varies. I can't say I'm completely confident. I've thought of a way, but I need to treat it for a long time to see its effects."
She looked at Chen Luoyang. "This method requires the use of a special spirit spring in my residence. So, Qingqing will have to return with me overseas."
Chen Luoyang's expression didn't change. He only said indifferently, "It's up to Miss Qingqing herself."
Ying Qingqing thought for a moment, then said softly, "I … want to try."
Chen Luoyang nodded indifferently. He looked at the Pill Empress and asked, "How long will it take?"
"At least three to five months, and at most three to five years. I'm not confident right now," the Pill Empress answered.
Chen Luoyang tapped his finger on the armrest of his chair. "Half a year."
The Pill Empress frowned slightly. Chen Luoyang said, "Wouldn't it be a joke if my guest was taken away from the main altar of my God Sect and had an accident? I don't ask for much. I just want to know that Miss Qingqing is safe. You have to know that although the overseas is big, it has its limits. "
"I can't thank Hierarch Chen enough for your concern for Qingqing." The Pill Empress' frown relaxed. "Let's set it at half a year. After half a year, I'll bring Qingqing back to the Central Plains and trouble Hierarch Chen again."
Chen Luoyang said, "There's no need to be so polite."
Ying Qingqing looked at Chen Luoyang. Her lips moved slightly. In the end, she said to Chen Luoyang, "Thank you."
"Qingqing has troubled Sect Master Chen over the past few days." The Pill Empress took out a small white jade bottle and placed it on the table. "This old one lives overseas and is so poor and remote that I have nothing to repay you with. I only have a few medicinal pills as a token of my gratitude. I hope that Cult Master Chen will accept them and not take offense."
Chen Luoyang said indifferently, "I'm just entertaining a guest. Why would I covet your thank you gift?"
The Pill Empress smiled. "It's just a small token of my appreciation."
Oh yeah!
Done!
Chen Luoyang was overjoyed.
He acted as if nothing had happened. He didn't even look at the white jade bottle.
He put the jade bottle on the table and didn't mention it again. It was as if he didn't care about it at all.
Chen Luoyang changed the topic. "Do you have any clues about Miss Qingqing's Hao Tian divine sword?"
The Pill Empress looked at Ying Qingqing. Ying Qingqing shook her head. "As long as I can remember, I already know how to use it."
"As far as I know, she probably didn't come into contact with Tao Wangji's moves." A rare bitter smile appeared on the Pill Empress' face. "The only possibility is that when this child was young, she met Tao Wangji at some point and secretly learned it. She never used it in front of me. Only she herself knows."
"Never mind. It doesn't matter." Chen Luoyang said carelessly, "When you return overseas, if you meet Tao Wangji, please send my regards."
"If I really meet him, I will definitely pass on Hierarch Chen's words," the Pill Empress said.
It was already night. Ying Qingqing and the Pill Empress weren't in a hurry to leave. Instead, they stayed for the night and left the next morning.
After they left the side hall, Chen Luoyang asked in Silence, "Are you ready?"
Elder Shou, who was standing at the side like a shadow, said, "I'm ready."
It was a woman's voice.
Her red hair and white eyebrows turned black again.
Her figure and face changed. She looked like Chen Chuhua again.
