Chapter 93 That’s right! I am the army of justice!
She rolled her eyes. "If you want to save him, then save him. What's the problem?"
"No problem." Xie Huai quietly watched Ruan Xing busy like a little bee packing up the belongings of her fellow disciples. She looked happy and didn't seem to care about the life and death of these fellow disciples... That's right, she was an evil cultivator of the ghost way.
However, he was very surprised that she was willing to take the initiative to rescue him. According to his understanding of Ruan Xing, it was probably her normal style to come up and finish him off and loot her property.
This is what Ruan Xing is doing now.
Xie Huai coughed again, interrupting Ruan Xing's hard work, "Could you please feed me a few more healing pills?"
"Sure." Ruan Xing put down the work at hand, took out a bottle of healing pills and shook it in front of Xie Huai's eyes, "Fu Yu died here, it's obvious what you did. I don't expect you to repay me for saving your life, but you have to thank me for not making trouble for you, right? Let me return to the sect's secret realm safely, can you promise?"
"Thank you." Xie Huai smiled bitterly, "I didn't expect that you were in Fu Qinghong's jade card communication. If you were determined to make trouble for me and pester them to not let them come to Xiantai Tree as soon as possible, I would really have no way to deal with it. Don't worry, I will let you return to Xuanbing Sect safely after I recover from my injuries and go out."
There were several sect jade tokens scattered around Xie Huai. She had seen them before, but she didn't expect that there was also Fu Qinghong's jade token among them. Xie Huai looked at it once.
Ruan Xing suddenly realized that the way to save them was to contact them directly after entering the secret realm and not let them go to the Xiantai Tree.
It’s that simple, but she has never paid attention to it, so she has never thought about it.
But they weren't actually familiar with each other... They might not listen to her even if she told them. She sighed secretly. This was reality, not a simulation. Even if she went against her nature and wanted to waste points to save people, she had no chance.
She fed Xie Huai a healing pill and went to search the bodies again. After Xu Sixi and the others had searched all the bodies, there was only one cultivator left lying outside with Fu Qinghong.
She turned the body over to look for the storage bag and magic weapon. Fu Qinghong's hand was clenched into a fist and tightly grasping something. She finally opened it, but there was no valuable treasure inside.
It's a pear with a bite taken out of it.
"You guy..." Ruan Xing whispered in a daze.
Was his last thought before death to take a bite of a pear? This was too ridiculous, but Fu Qinghong actually did it.
"Okay, I'll do it because you made me laugh for no reason." Ruan Xing resigned himself to taking out the soul-nourishing wood and picking out a small piece of wood the size of a thumb to serve as the puppet essence for Fu Qinghong.
However, Fu Qinghong was only in the late stage of foundation building, and her soul was not strong. Two days had passed, and it was hard to say how much consciousness the soul she summoned still had.
Looking back, she saw Xie Huai still closing his eyes to heal his wounds. With the lesson learned from the Demon Lord, she was really afraid that these demon cultivators would steal her skills.
She casually used the Five Directions Water to create a water curtain to separate the inside and outside, preventing Xie Huai from seeing what she was doing. Then she began to clean Fu Qinghong's body and draw talismans on the surface of the skin.
Xie Huai was seriously injured, and his focus was definitely on himself. He would not use his spiritual sense to look at her casually. He was very vulnerable these days. If someone broke in, he would have to rely on Ruan Xing for protection. He didn't dare to offend her at all. This water curtain just expressed Ruan Xing's wish that she didn't want Xie Huai to know.
After dealing with the corpse, Ruan Xing began to refine the essence of the puppet. He recited a spell to summon the soul with Fu Qinghong's blood, and a vague residual soul floated over in a daze.
After a person dies, the soul will slowly dissipate over a period of time, unless one has a high level of cultivation and a strong soul like the Demon Lord and the Fairy, who can stay for a while longer; or one is as full of resentment as the original heroine, who can condense the soul to practice the ghost way; for example, the thousands of ghosts suppressed in the Hanshan Secret Realm, their resentment is condensed and cannot dissipate, but they are suppressed by the Mo Sui and cannot become ghost cultivators.
Ordinary souls disappear without a trace.
She stuffed Fu Qinghong's soul into the thumb-sized piece of soul-nourishing wood. After completing the contract with blood, she found a rope, wrapped the small wood around it, and hung it around Fu Qinghong's neck, hiding it under his clothes.
"Fu Qinghong, do you understand? If you do, nod your head." Ruan Xing kept waving in front of Fu Qinghong.
But Fu Qinghong just kept shaking his head left and right following the movements of her hands.
Ruan Xing scratched his chin in distress, "It seems a bit unintelligent."
Well, with the soul-nourishing tree, even if his soul is incomplete, he will naturally regain consciousness over time.
I hope that by then he will still be that sunny, cheerful and food-loving boy.
After finishing this task, she put Fu Qinghong into the storage bag, then took out the other two bodies, one male and one female, and started to deal with them.
Two mysterious materials were found in these people's storage bags, which would serve as the essence of the puppets.
She didn't plan to use high-level materials like the Soul-Nourishing Wood. Even if she used it, it could only raise the two bosses to the middle stage of the Golden Core at most. Their physical foundation in the Foundation Establishment Stage was there, and it couldn't be raised too high, and it was actually of no benefit to her.
First of all, it's a very simple truth. The Soul-Nourishing Tree is her personal property, but the two big guys are not. They have their own ideas, and even if they become puppets, they will not listen to her obediently. At most, they are worried that her death will affect themselves and take care of her. It is impossible, absolutely impossible, to use them as puppets.
Based on the above, how could Ruan Xing use her own personal property to promote others? She is not a white lotus.
After dealing with the puppet bodies of the two big guys, it was the third day of entering the secret realm. Ruan Xing removed the water curtain, and Xie Huai noticed the movement and opened his eyes.
"How are you? Can you move now?" Although it was a question, Ruan Xing used a positive tone. She had been recuperating for a day, so she must be able to move now. He was able to do it last time, and he even took out a storage bag to reimburse her for the pills... Hey, wait, didn't she just say that she would pay back ten times the pills?
Oh no, I forgot about this.
Ruan Xing felt a little annoyed. It was all her fault that she was so focused on searching that she forgot to cheat Xie Huai.
Xie Huai nodded silently. He felt that Ruan Xing was a little strange today... He didn't dare to speak, for fear that he would give Ruan Xing new ideas.
"Well, then you stay here for a while. I have something to go out for."
She has already prepared the materials and has to go to the cave to find the two big guys first.
She twisted her fingertips lightly, and the second earth escape talisman turned into ashes. She sank into the ground and moved quickly. A few minutes later, she appeared hundreds of miles away.
She looked up and around. Oh no, she had overrun the area and had to fly back another sixty miles.
There is no way. The earth-escaping talisman can only control the direction, but cannot accurately control the position.
When she arrived at the cave, after the old-fashioned choice between two options, she proposed the puppet body plan.
There was a hint of disgust in the fairy's eyes, "I thought you were a righteous cultivator, but I didn't expect..."
"I am indeed a righteous monk!"
Ruan Xing interrupted her righteously, and said with some grief: "It's just that the situation is urgent now, and I have no choice. Yes, I want to inherit, I admit it frankly, but I proposed this method not only for the inheritance, but also for my fellow disciples who are in dire straits!"
The fairy was stunned for a moment, as if she was stunned by her impassioned speech.
She practiced hard for nearly a thousand years and achieved the status of a god with her natural talent. Not long after her promotion, she encountered the great war between immortals and demons. Afterwards, the battlefield turned into a secret realm and she was trapped there, facing a demon every day. It had been a long time since she had seen such a righteous cultivator.
Ruan Xing took a deep breath and continued, "Now, there are demon cultivators outside the secret realm, and my fellow disciples are completely unaware of it. I need the two seniors to help me capture...save them. I can't watch them fall into despair and not save them. Wouldn't that ruin my Dao heart!?"
The fairy was shaken, she was even a little angry, "But the evil cultivator wants to kill my righteous cultivators again, I will help you this time!"
"Good! Fairy is really righteous! Helping those in need, fighting violence and protecting the good, you are worthy of being a role model of the righteous path. We, the righteous cultivators, should take you as an example!"
Ruan Xing flattered the fairy indiscriminately, making her face blush. It was as if she was back to the time before the battle between fairies and demons, when the leader had given her orders in the face of danger.
After dealing with the fairy, there is still a demon king to be dealt with.
He looked at Ruan Xing with a half-smile, "You help me build a puppet body to take me out, and I'll give you my inheritance. This is a fair deal, but why should I help you save your fellow disciples?"
Ruan Xing said sadly, "I know I have nothing to repay you, but I just heard that you practice the Devouring Technique. I can make a decision for my fellow disciples. As long as you save their lives, everything else I have will be given to you!"
The fairy looked at the Demon Lord with disdain in her eyes, "Even saving people requires such utilitarian calculations, you are worthy of being a demon cultivator!"
"You won't understand even if I tell you." The Demon Lord gave her a lazy look.
"Demon Lord, please come this way. Let's not pollute the fairy's ears." Ruan Xing motioned to the Demon Lord to follow her to the door and talk. The Demon Lord followed her with a good temper. The fairy snorted coldly and turned her head away.
Although the fairy would not do such rude behavior as eavesdropping with her spiritual sense, Ruan Xing still whispered, "Senior, do you two have any magic in your storage bags?"
"No, I ate it all. What for?"
You are such a good eater... Ruan Xing was speechless for a while, gave up the idea of learning magic from them, and continued: "Senior, here is a little gift for you. I want to make a deal with you. After you capture my fellow disciples, you can eat their storage bags and magic tools, but can you leave some of the spirit stones for me?"
The Demon Lord crossed his arms and asked inquiringly, "I don't think you want to save your fellow disciples."
"You really have a keen eye. Nothing can be hidden from you." Ruan Xing smiled awkwardly.
The Demon Lord quickly shook his shoulders, "No, it's fine if you say that to her, but if you say that to me, I get goosebumps all over my body."
"Yes, senior, I did it mainly to protect myself. If they all died and I escaped alone, I would not be able to survive in the sect. You can save 10 to 20 people. You two can cover up for yourselves. Capture them and ask them to hand over the things in the storage bag and the magic tools. This is just a little extra gain for me. I can't save this person for nothing, right?"
Ruan Xing had a knowing smile on his face. The Demon Lord thought for a few seconds and then readily agreed: "Okay, I'll do it. After thousands of years, I finally encountered something interesting."
Seeing that the Demon Lord agreed, Ruan Xing was overjoyed and quickly described to him the appearance of the cultivator who had taken the Realm Breaking Pill.
She rubbed her hands excitedly and said, "We must catch this person if we meet him."
The Demon Lord sneered, "Look at your useless look, I know."
