Chapter Summary
Hahaha…” “Don’t… I’m scared…” … After just 1 cup of tea’s time, at the entrance of the Pill Cultivation Mountain— “Damn it… what is this?!” Da Niu looked up at the sky and saw a black spirit boat plunging rapidly toward him! Let’s go see him!” “Everyone stop working, go to Senior Brother Tan!” “…” More than 800 disciples from the herb garden dropped their work, mounted their flying swords, and followed the spirit boat toward the back mountain. “Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh…” At that moment, all the he...
“Tan Yun is severely injured, and he’s been struck by my lethal poison. No matter what, he’s doomed to die.”
Lin Xinyi smiled sweetly, her slender body swaying like a serpent. Her sparkling eyes fell on Fan Jian as she shot him a seductive glance.
“Brother Fan, how will you reward me?”
“You seductive demon!”
Fan Jian looked at Lin Xinyi’s tattered clothes, revealing her alluring figure. A strange smile appeared on his face. Suddenly, he scooped her up and strode straight into the forest.
“What do you think? Hahaha…”
“Don’t… I’m scared…”
…
After just 1 cup of tea’s time, at the entrance of the Pill Cultivation Mountain—
“Damn it… what is this?!”
Da Niu looked up at the sky and saw a black spirit boat plunging rapidly toward him!
Clutching his head, he ran for his life, wishing his parents had given him 2 more legs!
“Boom!”
The ground shook like waves, the earth cracked, and dust billowed as the spirit boat crashed violently onto the ground in front of the mountain gate!
“Ugh… ptui!”
Da Niu narrowly avoided being crushed to death. He got up from the ground in an awkward position, spat out dirt, and walked toward the spirit boat with a trembling heart.
“Senior Brother Tan?”
Seeing Tan Yun lying on the spirit boat, his face blackened and his condition critical, Da Niu hurried over and crouched beside him, calling out repeatedly.
“Senior Brother Tan, wake up!”
“Senior Brother Tan, you just left not long ago—how did you end up this badly injured…”
“Senior Brother Tan…”
In his haze, Tan Yun heard the familiar voice. Forcing his heavy eyelids open, he looked at the anxious Da Niu and spoke weakly:
“Don’t worry… I’m not dead yet… Hurry… pull out the 3 arrows from my head… Remember… don’t let the arrow tips touch you… they’re poisoned…”
“Alright! But Senior Brother Tan, you must endure it!”
Da Niu shuddered at the sight of the 3 poison arrows that had pierced through his skull.
“Stop talking… do it now…”
Tan Yun spoke with difficulty. A flash of light appeared from the interspatial ring on his finger, and a top-grade lightning-attribute spiritual flying sword materialized beneath Da Niu’s feet.
“The poison arrows are mid-grade spiritual weapons… Use this sword… cut first… then… pull them out…”
“Got it!”
Gripping the sword with both hands, Da Niu gathered all his strength and slashed toward Tan Yun’s head!
“Whoosh!”
The blade precisely skimmed past the back of Tan Yun’s head, cutting off the feathered ends of all 3 arrows.
Crouching down, Da Niu used his left hand to hold Tan Yun’s chin steady while his trembling right hand grabbed the exposed arrow tip at the forehead—then yanked, pulling out the 1st arrow!
At that moment, the pain from his 5 broken ribs, the 2 penetrating chest wounds, and the injury to his head had already numbed Tan Yun’s entire body.
By the time Da Niu pulled out the 3rd arrow, Tan Yun’s head throbbed violently, and his consciousness was on the verge of collapse!
“Senior Brother Tan, I’ve removed them all! What should I do next?”
Da Niu looked at Tan Yun’s miserable state, completely at a loss.
“Da Niu… quickly drive the spirit boat… take me to the herb garden behind… Cangling Immortal Mountain…”
Using what seemed like his last breath, Tan Yun spoke. With every word, black blood flowed from his mouth.
“I must… investigate… the real cause of death… of the Rebirth Jade Grass… Zhou Run is cautious… his herb cultivation skills are profound… with his nature… he would monitor it every step… I don’t believe… under such circumstances… it could… die…”
After speaking, Tan Yun immediately lost consciousness.
Hearing this, Da Niu ignored his duty of guarding the mountain gate. He quickly piloted the spirit boat into the sky, heading toward Cangling Immortal Mountain, 50,000 li away…
After 3 hours…
Inside the herb garden of the immortal mountain, the miscellaneous disciples tending the herbs all wore sorrowful expressions, their eyes filled with grief. They knew well that in just 2 hours, Steward Shen would be executed.
Shen Qingfeng was their only support.
Without him, no one had ever treated them as human. If he died, who could they rely on? They didn’t even dare imagine the long days ahead…
At that moment, one of the herb garden disciples felt a gust of wind above his head. Looking up, he saw Da Niu piloting a spirit boat hovering over the garden.
“Da Niu, weren’t you guarding the mountain gate? Why are you back?” the disciple asked.
“We’ll talk later! I brought Senior Brother Tan back. He wants to examine the 5 Rebirth Jade Grasses that died. Get on the spirit boat and guide me to the planting area—quick!” Da Niu urged.
“Alright!”
The disciple nodded vigorously, leaping onto the boat and shouting loudly:
“Everyone! Senior Brother Tan is back! We’re heading to the herb garden behind the mountain where the 5 Rebirth Jade Grasses are planted—”
“Shut up!”
Da Niu glared at him. “Can’t you see Senior Brother Tan is injured? He needs silence!”
Seeing Tan Yun’s miserable condition, the disciple grew worried, but couldn’t help glancing at Da Niu and whispering:
“Da Niu, you’ve gotten bold, huh? If not for disturbing Senior Brother Tan, I’d teach you a lesson!”
“Ahem…”
Da Niu gave an awkward laugh. “Calm down, important matters come first.”
“Hmph!”
The disciple snorted, then pointed the way. The spirit boat immediately sped toward the back mountain…
“Quick! Senior Brother Tan is back—but he looks badly injured. Let’s go see him!”
“Everyone stop working, go to Senior Brother Tan!”
“…”
More than 800 disciples from the herb garden dropped their work, mounted their flying swords, and followed the spirit boat toward the back mountain.
Soon, Da Niu landed the spirit boat midway up the rear mountain.
“Senior Brother Tan, the place where Zhou Run planted the Rebirth Jade Grass is just ahead. Please wake up—I’ll carry you there,” Da Niu said softly as he bent down.
After resting for over 3 hours, Tan Yun regained consciousness. Though his face was still pale as paper, the deadly poison from the spirit arrows had mysteriously dissipated without treatment.
Slowly opening his eyes, Tan Yun nodded faintly and said weakly:
“Thank you for the trouble…”
“You’re too polite, Senior Brother Tan,”
Da Niu replied, lifting Tan Yun and carrying him into the damp herb garden. After walking dozens of steps, he stopped.
Ahead—
were the 5 completely withered Rebirth Jade Grasses.
“Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh…”
At that moment, all the herb garden disciples hovered in the air above Tan Yun, whispering softly among themselves:
“What do you think Senior Brother Tan is trying to do?”
“No idea… maybe he’s checking whether the Rebirth Jade Grass is truly dead?”
“…”
Their whispers were cut off by Da Niu:
“Senior Brother Tan is seriously injured and needs quiet. No one make a sound!”
Instantly, everyone fell silent, leaving only the sound of the mountain wind…
“Da Niu, put me down,”
Tan Yun said at that moment.
“Yes.”
Da Niu carefully set him down on the ground.
Holding his chest with his left hand, Tan Yun struggled forward 3 steps, stopping in front of the Rebirth Jade Grass before speaking weakly:
“Da Niu, help me uproot all 5 plants… Remember, be gentle—don’t damage the roots…”
