Chapter 2247: Chapter 2247: Medicine Shocks the World (32)
"Really not?" Chuzheng still didn’t plan to let go of the Good Person Card.
Jing Po shook his little head, pursed his lips without saying anything, and his ears were already red under the hood.
Chuzheng just teased him, without really intending to do anything.
She looked towards the river surface, where there seemed to be a hint of white emerging from the green island.
Flowers blossoming?
"The flowers are blooming!"
People on the shore and the spiritual bodies looked over simultaneously.
On the green island, more and more silver-white flowers appeared, like silver butterflies.
Miao Lan murmured, "They truly blossomed..."
Jing Po’s fingers involuntarily tightened, and he revealed a pair of eyes, earnestly looking at Chuzheng: "I didn’t lie to you."
"Hmm." Even if the Good Person Card lied to me, it doesn’t matter.
Chuzheng let go of Jing Po and walked to the edge, squatting down to extend her hand.
"Chen Yin girl..." Wu Yue called out, "You mustn’t touch the River of Forgetfulness water directly."
Chuzheng’s hand had already reached in and pulled out an evil spirit from within.
She turned around, calmly looking at Wu Yue as if asking why?
Wu Yue: "..." Pretend I didn’t say anything.
The evil spirit in Chuzheng’s hand acted obediently like a quail, without moving.
"Go help me pick the flowers."
Chuzheng ordered the evil spirit to retrieve the flowers, but as soon as it touched the flowers, they disappeared.
Chuzheng: "..."
Useless!
Can’t even accomplish a small task, what’s the use of it!
The evil spirit tried twice, both were the same result, it shivered and floated back, looking fearfully and innocently at Chuzheng.
It’s not its fault; it’s the flowers that vanished on their own.
Chuzheng waved her hand.
"I’ll... I’ll go." Jing Po said.
"How will you go? Swim over?" Chuzheng snapped, pressing him in place: "Wait for me!"
"I..."
Jing Po hadn’t finished speaking, and Chuzheng had already disappeared.
-
Chuzheng returned carrying a tree branch, threw it on the ground, and clapped her hands, "How many do you need?"
Jing Po swallowed hard, "One... just one is enough."
"Oh." Chuzheng looked at the flower-filled scene, casually said, "Then take the extras as backup."
Jing Po: "..."
Jing Po collected the flowers, and Chuzheng looked at Miao Lan, asking her to bring Zhixi over.
Jing Po only needed Zhixi’s blood, nothing else.
Then Chuzheng forced Zhixi to let out a third of her blood.
After bleeding, Chuzheng felt something wasn’t right.
"Wuyin Town is all spiritual bodies, why is this one alive?"
Miao Lan: "Zhixi came out from the Secret Realm, and was injured at the time, so I hid it. After Wuyin Town closed, it could only stay here."
Chuzheng suspiciously examined the huge creature.
Zhixi flicked its tail and quickly darted into the sky, staying far from Chuzheng, the embodiment of terror.
"Master, we need to find those people for revenge." Without the formation controlling them, they can now freely vent their anger and hatred.
"Hmm, good luck to you all."
Miao Lan bowed in thanks, "Many thanks for your assistance, once Miao Lan’s matters are settled, if I can return, I’ll certainly repay you like an ox or horse."
"No need."
Anyway, there aren’t any Thank-You Cards.
Chuzheng received both items, retrieved the original body, mission accomplished, retreat.
As everyone’s focus was on Meng Weihan on the island, Chuzheng immediately took the coffin and card and left.
The formation in Wuyin Town was destroyed, so Wuyin Town can now be seen with the naked eye, resembling an ordinary dilapidated town.
Chuzheng exited the town, looked back, and could see the red river and the green island on the river.
Wait...
Where’s the town outside??
Wuyin Town was previously invisible, but there was a town outside it, and now where has that town gone??
Chuzheng looked around, there were only traces of Wuyin Town, none of the previous town.
Or... was that also an Illusion Realm?
If it was an Illusion Realm and no one, including her, noticed... the person who set up the Illusion Realm must be extraordinary.
No choice, I must leave quickly.
However, before Chuzheng could escape far, she was blocked by a group of Demonic Beasts.
The Demonic Beasts didn’t entertain the notion of villains dying from too much talk; they charged straightforwardly.
Chuzheng: "!!!!"
Oh XXX!!!
Some Demonic Beasts headed towards the town, clearly targeting the people there as well.
Demonic Beasts aren’t Demon Spirits; they are unrestrained by Chuzheng and attack desperately, wave after wave.
Chuzheng fought briefly, jumped by the coffin, and asked Jing Po for poison.
Jing Po fumbled through the coffin for his box, a golden light flashed, and the Golden Core she gave him was stored in the box, its material unknown, as none of the light could pass through.
Once Jing Po’s poison was released, the Demonic Beasts couldn’t withstand it and fell one after another.
The beasts that hadn’t fallen: "..."
This woman actually cheated!
"More coming?" Chuzheng casually shook the bottle in her hand when she noticed the Demonic Beasts still wanted to offer themselves.
Demonic Beasts: "..."
The Demonic Beasts roared aloud, turned, and ran towards the town.
Chuzheng patted her chest and breathed a sigh of relief.
"Quite impressive." Chuzheng tossed the now-empty bottle to Jing Po.
Jing Po scrambled to catch it, whispering, "...Actually, you didn’t need to use the whole bottle."
"Why?"
"...I...don’t have any more."
Chuzheng: "..."
Chuzheng looked at the Demonic Beasts running away, grabbed Jing Po with one hand and the coffin with the other, and quickly fled.
If the Demonic Beasts come back, she’d have to deal with them herself?
That’ll tire her out completely!
Having left some distance, feeling safe, Chuzheng finally stopped.
As she turned, she could still see the river.
The red river flowed through the winding mountains, like the earth’s veins.
The distance to that town was quite far...
"...What are you looking at?" Jing Po couldn’t help but ask when he saw Chuzheng staring in one direction.
"The river."
"River?" Jing Po spoke in doubt, "There’s... a river here?"
Chuzheng’s heart skipped a beat, "You can’t see it?"
Jing Po shook his head, "Only mountains, no... river."
Chuzheng: "???" Illusion? Have my eyes gone bad!!
Chuzheng looked carefully for two seconds, feeling it wasn’t an illusion.
She could see the River of Forgetfulness.
And maybe even feel the evil spirits within...
They shared a peculiar connection with her... or rather, the body she inhabited.
"It’s fine, let’s go." Chuzheng withdrew her gaze, pointed at the body in the coffin, "Let’s deal with this first."
"Do you... want to return to this body?" Jing Po fiddled with his fingers, cautiously asking.
For some reason, this body always seemed awkward to him.
Not because of her looks.
She was beautiful, the type of beauty that could captivate at first glance.
But...
Thinking of her past smiles, all meant for someone else, felt like a thorn in Jing Po’s heart.
"No."
Even if Chuzheng wanted to return, she couldn’t.
She could feel no connection between herself and this body.
Nor did she want to return.
Who knows what Meng Weihan did to this body.
