Chapter 548 Old acquaintances
Su Buwang, with only Jindan Realm cultivation, was still a little a bit weak.
After only escaping two workshops, he was surrounded by a group of men in bamboo hats who were dressed in the same as himself.
“Well... Seniors?”
Su Buwang hold the fist in the other hand and saluted cautiously, “Why do you round up me? I think...”
One of the men in black took out a drawing and compared it with Su Buwang for several times. Then he said to another one, who was obviously the leader, “It’s him, take him back. Lord Zhuo ordered that we shall keep him from any hurt.”
The leader in bamboo hat nodded and said clearly, “Little Fellow Practitioner, you don’t need to be panic. We won’t hurt you since we are all from Linli Building. Lord Zhuo requested the pleasure of seeing you. Please come over for a chat.”
Su Buwang looked slightly relaxed, but he was still a little wary, “Lord Zhuo? I have heard this name. But we don’t have any contact. Why does he want to see me?”
The leader couldn’t help but laugh, “That’s not be known for us who are just followers. People of Linli Building will not kill anyone without reason, and the location is in a restaurant nearby with a crowd of people. You can rest assured.”
Su Buwang glanced at the dark surroundings and shrugged, “It seems that I have no choice but to go.”
After a while, Su Buwang came to the front of the Linli Restaurant.
“Just by looking at this restaurant can I know it is the belongings of Linli Building. I’m really cheated by your nonsense. If I go in, wouldn’t you have the last word about how to treat me?!”
Su Buwang looked up and saw the plaque. When he was about to turn his head and left, those men in bamboo hats hesitated since they couldn’t decide whether they should stop him.
When they were embarrassed, a familiar voice suddenly came into their ears.
“Buwang!”
Su Buwang turned his head abruptly and saw a rough face. Then his eyes lit up, “Uncle Fang!”
“Lord Fang Cun!”
Those men in black and bamboo hats all around were immediately in salute, which made Su Buwang astonished. He couldn’t help but transmit the voice in silence, “Uncle Fang, how did you infiltrate into the enemy so soon?”
Fang Yuan was dumbfounded by him, “You come along with me upstairs first.”
Su Buwang scratched his head and replied.
On the top floor, Su Qinghao fidgeted in his chair and suddenly heard footsteps. When he looked up and saw Su Buwang’s face, his heart was choked for a moment.
“It’s really... Lord Evil’s heart was softened after all.”
Su Qinghao’s eyes were slightly moist.
It was great that my sister’s child was still in the world!
“Look, Uncle Fang, this person has a strange look at me.”
After being stared for a long time, Su Buwang was uncomfortable and couldn’t help but transmit the voice in silence.
“Qinghao.”
Fang Yuan called. Su Qinghao immediately returned to his senses, resuming as usual. He stood up and smiled, “You are Su Buwang, right? You disappeared a moment ago, which really made your Uncle Fang anxious.”
“It turns out that Uncle Fang was looking for me.”
Su Buwang came to realize. Then he scratched his head and said, “I don’t know what’s wrong. It seems that I have lost the memory of a period of time. When awake, I was already standing on the street. I don’t know what happened before at all.”
“How could such thing happen?”
Fang Yuan frowned, and he had learned about the situation in the blood tide from Geezer Cai.
“Buwang... Little boy, how can you connect with the Blood World?”
Su Qinghao sat down and said, “Geezer Cai said that you lost consciousness in the blood tide and rushed directly into it.”
“What?”
Su Buwang stayed in a daze, and immediately touched his whole body, “Then how can I be unscathed at all?”
“That’s just the strange thing. When those blood tides saw you, they all kept away from you of their own accord and even prostrated on their knees, being unwilling to hurt you.”
Suddenly, Su Qinghao remembered one thing when he said this questioningly, and then he asked, “By the way, there was a woman chasing you at the time. Why didn’t we see her when you are here?”
“Do you mean that Sister Qingshui went in with me?!”
Su Buwang’s eyes widened. He stood up and said anxiously, “Why don’t I know? I haven’t seen her after I came out. Sister Qingshui is still in the blood tide, isn’t she?! She can’t...”
“Buwang.”
Fang Yuan interrupted Su Buwang’s random thoughts. His staid tone was inexplicably calming, “With the cultivation of Miss Qingshui, it’s certain that she can come and go freely in the blood tide. You don’t have to worry about her.”
“But she is...”
“We and Qingshui just met each other by chance. Is she chasing you for you or something else...”
Fang Yuan’s tone was serious slightly, “It’s hard to tell.”
“Uncle Fang, you actually suspected Sister Qingshui!”
Su Buwang raised his brows, “If she hadn’t gave us a helping hand, we might have died in the extreme desert of Yang. How could you think like this!”
Fang Yuan was silent.
People had always been complicated. With that woman’s cultivation, it might be that she was in a moment of weakness and just did it casually. Who could tell the real purpose of her coming to Juecheng City?
“Brother Fang, Qingshui who you are talking...”
Su Qinghao was totally confused when he was hearing. It seemed that Geezer Cai had omitted a lot of details from him in order not to be punished.
“A mysterious female practitioner.”
Fang Yuan paused, and then said, “Her cultivation is even above me. She is so unpredictable that she might still be in the Juecheng City now. I am also not sure about her purpose of coming here. But I have heard from her that she was here to join the Linli Building. But now that you show up, she is hiding. It seems that the excuse is false.”
“Qingshui? Qingshui Circle, this name is really random.”
Su Qinghao muttered, “Since we lost all contact with her and there are few clues, it’s no use to think more. I will let the spies pay attention to the message about her. Now the Blood World is a top priority for us!”
Fang Yuan nodded and pondered for a moment. Then he asked, “How many monsters are there like that strange bird? How can we remove the influence of the Blood World?”
“This is not an overnight effort.”
Su Qinghao shook his head and sighed. Then he glanced at Su Buwang, “Brother, please come with me first and meet our old acquaintances.”
“Well, we haven’t met in a thousand years.”
Fang Yuan stood up and said to Su Buwang, who was still at a loss, “You can stroll around in the Linli Building first. There will be no danger. I will leave for just a moment.”
“Uncle Fang, don’t worry. I’m clever!”
Su Buwang smiled, and thought silently.
“This one named Zhuo, called Uncle Fang as brother. Hey...what a big shot. No wonder Uncle Fang had to come to find him when hearing that. If he hides at here, there will be no need to worry about being chased by the Shengtian Shrine. The matter is that how should I do next to find my mother...”
Just not to mention Su Buwang’s distress.
Fang Yuan and Su Qinghao rushed for a while and arrived at the base camp of Linli Building, a branch of it which located in a remote alley and looked like a little bit outdated.
“No one can think the headquarters of Linli Building that people searched for in everywhere of the Juecheng City is just this shop.”
As Su Qinghao was talking and entered into the shop, Fang Yuan paused at the door. He turned his head and saw a closed small wine shop next to the shop. His expression was a little tranced, and he even felt that he had returned to the past for a moment.
Zhouyue Winery.
“Brother Fang!”
“Brother Fang!”
A group of people suddenly rushed out of the shop, calling Fang Yuan with excitement and surprise on their faces.
Fang Yuan came back to his sense and focused on the first face of those people, with a smile on his face, “Heidan, and everyone, Long time no see.”
Heidan’s face turned red with excitement, “Brother Fang, I knew definitely that you would come here! Let’s rebuild the Linli Building together!”
“Ok.”
Fang Yuan replied. He looked up and saw that Ling Mo, who looked pale, was drinking at the table. He walked over and sat down. Then Heidan immediately handed out a wine glass.
“Why do you drink alone?” Fang Yuan picked up the flask on the table.
Ling Mo raised his eyes and glanced at him casually, “Other people are still lying down. If you don’t come, naturally, there will be no one would accompany me.”
Fang Yuan smiled and then stopped. He took out a palm-sized river-textured jade bottle and put it on the table, “Take me to see them.”
“You have a full bottle of Tianhe Sect’s healing medicine.”
Ling Mo picked it up and looked at Fang Yuan. Then he picked up the flask in another hand and got upstairs, “Follow me.”
The two passed through the back hall, entered the secret road of the rockery, and passed several defensive checkpoints before arriving in front of a spacious quiet room. Just standing in front of the door, they could smell the fragrance of medicine in the room, which lasted for a long time.
“This is a quiet room dedicated to healing.”
Ling Mo briefly introduced and opened stone gate. Then rows of familiar figures who were sitting in meditation for healing came into view.
“Su Qingtan, guards of Yunge Sect in those days, and some old subordinates of the Yinmo Cult...”
Fang Yuan’s eyes shook, and Su Qingtan opened his eyes first when he heard the sound. He thought it was Ling Mo and Su Qinghao, but when he saw Fang Yuan’s figure, he immediately noticed something was wrong.
“You are...”
Su Qingtan’s face changed, and immediately couldn’t help but laugh until he coughed, “Ahem— Even the young lord of the Tianhe Sect condescends and is committed to there.”
“Let’s cut the crap and take the healing medicine first.”
Fang Yuan frowned. Ling Mo handed out the pills and distributed them.
Yun Yi was also disturbed and wide awake. He was startled when he saw Fang Yuan, and then he smiled. While stuffing the pill into his mouth, he asked, “I heard that you ran away from Tianhe. Over the years, you have been looking for a way to resurrect the lord. Do you get anything?”
“If so, I won’t be here alone.”
Fang Yuan shook his head and sat aside, “But you, have you ever figured out a way after rebuilding the Linli Building these years?”
“It’s not so easy.”
Su Qingtan shook his head and sighed, “Even maintaining the existence of the Yin and Yang Region is already very difficult. Now at last your joining provides timely help and alleviates the crisis temporarily.”
“The Yin and Yang Region cannot be destroyed, otherwise we will be exposed to the divination, and both the Fate Ancestor and the Huangxing Hall can easily find us.”
Yun Yi took a deep breath, “We can’t lose it since we have held fast to it for thousands of years.”
Fang Yuan glanced at the others with unusual origins, who all showed the same firmness on their faces at the moment.
They knew all the truth clearly, but they were still unwilling to wake up from the dream of the Reincarnation Mirror. They even fought against their own sects and bore the infamy of traitors.
Was it worth it?
Fang Yuan’s hard-boiled face was a little bit softer, “Tell me, what is the situation in the Blood World.”
“I don’t know clearly, but... After a long period of contact, we speculate that—”
Ling Mo’s eyes flashed, “If you want to destroy it, you have to go deep into the center of the Blood World. There must be something that continuously creates blood monsters. The strange bird you killed today was just bred. Even if the bird was killed, those monsters will reappear in a few days!”
“But the deeper you go into the Blood World, the more blood monsters will appear.”
The medicine in Yun Yi’s body began to take effect, and his face was slightly ruddy. But when he thought of the battle that day, his tone was still gloomy, “Only those blood monsters that are as high as 100 meters are more than 20, and there are also monsters that are 500 or even a thousand meters in height. Even looking at it from afar can people feel terrified. With our cultivation, we are unable to defeat it.”
Fang Yuan glanced over a group of wounded in the room, and said with a calm tone, “Heal your injuries as soon as possible, and I will find a way out!”
