Chapter 421 (1/2)
After arriving at the courtyard silently, Li Fuchen opened the door and entered.
Inside the s.p.a.cious room, Zhao Mingyue was currently feeding medicine to her grandfather, Zhao Wujin. Seeing how weak her grandfather was, Zhao Mingyue constantly felt like crying.
Zhao Mingyue turned around after hearing the sound of the doors being opened.
When her eyes fell onto Li Fuchen, she was startled at first before her tears came cras.h.i.+ng down as though she had felt boundless grievances.
”I am back!” Li Fuchen took a deep breath and spoke apologetically.
Sob Sob…
Zhao Mingyue plunged into Li Fuchen's embrace as though she was possessed and cried forcefully.
Patting on Zhao Mingyue's skinny back, Li Fuchen consoled, ”Don't worry, I am here.”
Zhao Wujin had been injured because of him and Li Fuchen was grateful to Zhao Wujin. No matter what, he was going to cure Zhao Wujin.
Gently pus.h.i.+ng Zhao Mingyue aside, Li Fuchen arrived beside Zhao Wujin.
”Grand Elder.” Li Fuchen bent over and spoke softly.
”You are?” Zhao Wujin opened his extremely frail eyes. The current him didn't look like the once imposing inner sect grand elder anymore. In just two years, his body had withered and he was so skinny without any muscles left. His face was filled with wrinkles and his eyes were very turbid.
After taking a long time, Zhao Wujin finally recognized that it was Li Fuchen. His turbid eyes blossomed with emotional radiance as he trembled and grabbed onto Li Fuchen's hand. ”It is good as long as you are back… it is good as long as you are back. I do not have much time left. To be able to see you return, it is already considered a blessing from the heavens.”
The proudest thing he had done in his life was uncovering a real dragon like Li Fuchen. When Li Fuchen was still weak, he had given Li Fuchen plenty of support and when he recalled the past, Zhao Wujin involuntarily revealed a slight smile.
”Grand Elder, with me around, you will not die.”
While speaking, Li Fuchen activated the healing ring on his finger. In a split second, a green halo was released and had enveloped Zhao Wujin's body.
Visible to the naked eye, Zhao Wujin's withered body was gradually getting stronger, as though he was pumped with qi. At the same moment, Zhao Wujin's turbid eyes were gradually getting limpid and his entire body's spirit essence was drastically recovering. It was truly miraculous.
Zhao Mingyue covered her mouth while witnessing this scene.
”This is indeed a healing cardinal artifact.”
In fact, Li Fuchen could also use elixirs to help Zhao Wujin with the recuperation. But how could elixirs take effect faster than the healing cardinal artifact?
There was a reason why these items were called cardinal artifacts. It wasn't just a saying.
(TL note: I translated the cardinal artifacts as secret treasure, but I felt that cardinal artifacts sound better)
”My body…”
Zhao Wujin's voice was much clearer than before and his face was filled with disbelief.
Li Fuchen's awareness entered Zhao Wujin's body and suddenly realized that Zhao Wujin's damaged dantian was also recovering.
”It looks like I have underestimated the ability of this healing ring.” Li Fuchen's expression changed.
The recovery of dantian wasn't possible with regular earth cla.s.s elixirs, but this healing ring had achieved it easily.
”It is great. The inability to cultivate is a huge setback for any person.” Li Fuchen was in a much better mood. As long as Grand Elder's dantian recovered, with his original cultivation of peak level Heaven Dipper Realm, he would be able to rapidly regain his cultivation.
”Fuchen, what is going on?” Zhao Wujin sat up and asked with a shaking voice.
Li Fuchen laughed, ”Grand Elder, this is a healing cardinal artifact that I obtained from the Black Sky Sect Ruins. It can recover any injuries including damaged dantian.”
”Haha, the heavens didn't give up on me, Zhao Wujin, I have not been given up!” Zhao Wujin was extremely emotional. No one wished to die and no one wished to be unable to cultivate for an entire lifetime. Originally, he had already accepted the situation and felt that a human would inevitably have to die. But now, the heavens had suddenly made him live. How could he not be emotional?
”Grandfather!” Zhao Mingyue jumped into Zhao Wujin's embrace.
”My good granddaughter. You've had a hard time.” Zhao Wujin's tears flowed down.
After a good while, Zhao Wujin had finally calmed down his feelings and spoke to Li Fuchen with a complicated expression, ”Fuchen, you have returned too early. I can see that you are already a Reincarnation Realm expert. Your innate talents are unprecedented and no one will be able to surpa.s.s you. But if you return now, you will only become a thorn in everyone's eye. The East Unicorn Continent might be huge, but there isn't any place for you to seek shelter. You better hurry up and leave! You can return after another ten years. I believe that everything will still be able to be taken back.”
Li Fuchen shook his head, ”Grand Elder, since I dare to return, it means that I do not fear anyone. The Thunder G.o.d Sect and the Mystic Tools Sect are bold enough to abduct my Li Clan's members, abduct my parents, and hurt Grand Elder. I will not let this matter rest so easily.”
”Fuchen, you…”
Zhao Wujin had lost his cultivation and wasn't able to see Li Fuchen's strength, hence, he didn't know where did Li Fuchen get his confidence.
Li Fuchen said, ”Grand Elder, I know my limits. When has Fuchen disappointed you before? You just have to focus on recuperation. These low-grade spirit stones and elixirs are for you.”
Li Fuchen retrieved a storage bag and handed it over to Zhao Mingyue. There were a thousand low-grade spirit stones and some cultivation elixirs. They were enough for Zhao Wujin to recover his cultivation within the shortest period of time.
As for the Rebirth Elixir, Li Fuchen didn't give it to him for now. It wouldn't be too late after Zhao Wujin's cultivation recovered back to the peak level of Heaven Dipper Realm.
”Alright, just be careful.” Zhao Wujin chose to believe Li Fuchen.
Just like how he was determined that Li Fuchen would break the laws of bone frames back then.
Li Fuchen didn't head straight to the Thunder G.o.d Sect and the Mystic Tools Sect. He had to visit the Wind Snow Sect to understand more about the Thunder G.o.d Sect and the Mystic Tools Sect's situation.
He might not fear anyone in terms of strength, but he still mustn't do things recklessly.
The Wind Snow Sect was located in the no.1 mountain range in the Wind Snow Region, the Wind Snow Mountains.
Wind Snow Mountains had snow for the entire year and the weather was extremely cold. One would be able to stimulate the innate potential when cultivating in such a harsh environment and allowing the increase of cultivation speed.
On this day, in front of the Wind Snow Sect, a figure sped over.
”Who goes there?”
The guards at the mountain gates were nine Earth Shatter Realm martial artists. The leader yelled out loudly.
Amongst the wind and snow, Li Fuchen stood in the air and spoke indifferently, ”Go and report. Say that Li Fuchen has visited.”
