Chapter 1247 - Pavilion Master Chu, can I touch your head? (1/2)

“The Fourth Stage Realm isn’t low. In ancient times, you would have already been able to leave the sect and wander about,” Pavilion Master Chu said indifferently. “Oh, do you want a reward? Take a look at the Crystal-Clear Water Pavilion below. Although it has been damaged quite a bit, its foundation is still there. I can give it to you if you want. However, I’m afraid that I won’t be able to give you the two trees behind me.”

Song Shuhang moved his gaze to the Crystal-Clear Water Pavilion that had been wrecked and contaminated with poison. Heavens, that was the poison of someone at the Ninth Stage. Weaker cultivators would instantly die when touching it, and some might even instantly die just from taking a whiff of it.

Even if you reward me with the Crystal-Clear Water Pavilion, I wouldn’t be able to take it away.

Moreover, the Crystal-Clear Water Pavilion was the most precious thing to Pavilion Master Chu, so how could he possibly have the heart to take it away from her?

Song Shuhang replied, “Gentlemen don’t take advantage of others.”

Pavilion Master Chu yawned. “Then there’s nothing I can do. Other than the Crystal-Clear Water Pavilion, I have nothing else that I could reward you with at the moment… Ye Si has long been yours, even in her death, she’s your ghost spirit.”

Song Shuhang laughed dryly.

Pavilion Master Chu asked, “Did you have any ideas?”

“Pavilion Master, I need time to think of a solution, don’t rush me. I can’t brainstorm whenever I want.” After saying that, Song Shuhang pointed to his body and laughed. “Actually, my body is currently liquefied. How about I give you a bit of it and you use it to condense a new body?”

Pavilion Master Chu replied, “No.”

At this time, the sea turtle said, “Shuhang, prepare to enter brainstorming mode. The immortal energy stored within Pavilion Master Chu’s body has already been depleted by half. When the immortal energy is completely exhausted, her body will begin to dissipate again, and eventually nothing will be left of her.”

Pavilion Master Chu said, “Although the amount of immortal energy that Slow-Witted Song had left in me was quite a lot, it doesn’t exactly suit my attributes, so the rate of its consumption is much higher than it should have been, even I don’t know how much longer I’ll be able to stay like this.”

Song Shuhang was anxious. “What about Slow-Witted Song? Can’t we just call him over?”

Pavilion Master Chu replied, “He left, and before he did, he told me that the troublesome matter of saving me should be left to you to deal with.” If she’d had shoulders right now, she would have shrugged.

…Pavilion Master Chu did not mention the ‘last resort’ that Slow-Witted Song had mentioned. She would rather die.

Song Shuhang said, “Huh?”

Was that guy making a joke? Even he couldn’t deal with this problem, yet he actually expects me to deal with it?

…Alright, take a deep breath.

Calm down.

If I’m solving this problem, I’ll first have to know the reasons why it even happened. And after that, find a way to treat the symptoms.

If he didn’t even know the root of the problem, it was possible that he could just make things worse.

Song Shuhang asked, “Pavilion Master Chu, what is your current state?”

Pavilion Master Chu calmly replied, “Only my head is left. At the same time, I’ve gradually been consuming the immortal energy that has been left by Slow-Witted Song for the maintenance of my body. When my body completely dissipates, I’m 90% sure I’ll disappear forever, and even the means of resurrection that I have prepared will be of no use.”

What the h.e.l.l, then how in the world can you remain so calm?!

Song Shuhang asked, “How did you end up in this state?”

Although he’d been following the battle at the Crystal-Clear Water Pavilion through the eye of virtue, he hadn’t really got to have a detailed picture of everything.

“I stepped onto my path, this is the second path. The price for doing so is ‘dying once’… The two trees behind are the fruits of my sacrifice,” Pavilion Master Chu said as she turned her head to look at the two trees.

The new Crystal-Clear Water Pavilion would be reborn inside these two trees.

Song Shuhang rubbed his brow.

Treat the symptoms my a.s.s!

Pavilion Master Chu’s state involved the path to immortality of a Ninth Stage Tribulation Transcender; this was an area that Song Shuhang would not be able to understand at present.

Even if Pavilion Master Chu were to give him some details on the principles of immortality, Song Shuhang would still not be able to understand it.

And so, he currently only had a single option to resort to.

Song Shuhang took off the glove on his right hand. “Pavilion Master Chu, let me touch your head.”

Indeed, the final option he had was the ‘secret appraisal technique’. This was the best method he had that would allow him to figure out the inner workings.

Of course, appraising Pavilion Master Chu would definitely make him pay a huge price. Fortunately, he was currently in a liquefied state. As such, it did not matter how much ‘blood’ he lost as all of the liquid that would get ‘spewed’ out of his body could still be retrieved.

Once again, this liquefaction talent of Senior Phoenix was ​​truly great. It worked seamlessly with his secret appraisal technique.

Pavilion Master Chu said, “I’ll bite you!”

Song Shuhang seriously said, “Pavilion Master Chu, please cooperate. I’m going to cast a secret technique. This secret technique is related to Slow-Witted Song.”

Pavilion Master Chu heard this and slightly paused.

After that, she fell silent and stopped speaking.

This was her show of tacit consent to Song Shuhang’s idea.

Song Shuhang smiled slightly, and then he extended his right hand and pressed it on Pavilion Master Chu’s head.

It really did feel amazing, and he just couldn’t stop after touching it once.

He touched it left and right, back and front, along her hair, and back.

Pavilion Master Chu gritted her teeth, and said, “If I find out that you touching my head isn’t a necessary procedure for you to use your secret technique, you’re done for.”

Song Shuhang’s hand stiffened.

Song Shuhang seriously said, “Cough, Pavilion Master Chu, I was just preparing myself a bit. The price I have to pay for using this secret technique is really high, so I need to prepare mentally.”

“A high price? How much is it? I’ll compensate you.” Pavilion Master Chu’s voice softened.

“Unfortunately, you won’t be able to compensate me for this one.” Song Shuhang gritted his teeth as 88,888 voices filled his mind while he urged the ‘secret appraisal technique’.

Golden runes flew out of his eyes and landed on Pavilion Master Chu.

In the next moment, a series of cuts appeared on Song Shuhang’s body. Each of the cuts was an inch deep, and an indiscernible amount of liquefied ‘blood’ spewed out of them.

Even at his chest, a huge wound in the form of a transparent hole had emerged.
