Chapter 147: Liwangzun 2
The girl followed Li Wangzun's footsteps, passed through the numerous palaces of Tianyi Palace, and came to a quiet Xuanhua Palace.
This place occupies a hilltop and is very secluded.
Li Wangzun stopped, turned around and said to the girl: "This is your new residence, and it is also where you will practice in the future."
The girl looked around and saw that the courtyard outside the palace was full of exotic flowers and plants, with a small pond in the middle. There were a few water lilies floating on the water, which looked particularly fresh and refined. She secretly admired in her heart that this Liwang Zun not only had a high level of cultivation, but also had a unique taste.
"Thank you, Your Majesty." The girl answered respectfully. She saw a figure in the hall from afar.
Li Wangzun nodded slightly and said, "That's your senior sister Ruyin, go and say hello."
The girl nodded and walked towards the hall.
Li Wangzun looked at her with satisfaction, then turned and left.
As soon as she entered the hall, she saw a girl in a lilac skirt reading a book. Qin Muyue turned around and found that she was reading "Annotations to the Herbal Classics".
A line of words appeared in front of her, as if hinting: Ruyin's aptitude for cultivation was average, and he was good at pharmacology, but he insisted on joining the Tianyi Palace. By coincidence, he used a medicine to detoxify Liwang Zun, so he was accepted as a disciple.
Qin Muyue touched her chin. As soon as she saw Ruyin, she felt a strange sense of closeness in her heart, as if the dream world had deliberately done that.
[Daozu, another word appeared]
Qin Muyue saw the words appearing in the void and said: You, Qin Xinggui, and Ruyin hit it off right away and have a very good relationship. Ruyin often cooks for you.
The girl immediately became interested. Did you eat it? That's great.
"Senior Sister, I am Master's new disciple." She walked over and bowed.
When Ruyin heard the voice, she looked up, revealing a pretty face with a hint of curiosity and friendliness in her eyes.
She put down the Annotations to the Herbal Classics in her hand, stood up, and responded with a smile: "No need to be polite, Junior Sister, I am Ruyin, and we will be fellow disciples from now on."
The girl looked at Ruyin and smiled shyly: "Hello, Senior Sister. I'm a little hungry. Is there a kitchen and food in this hall?"
[Daozu, why are you hungry now?]
[Pushing the plot is not as important as eating]
【You are really a person of the day】
Ruyin smiled and nodded: "Of course, I like to cook for myself. You came just in time, I was just about to make lunch, why don't we join in?"
Qin Muyue's eyes lit up and she nodded quickly: "That's great, I can help too."
The two walked into the kitchen of Xuanhua Palace together. It was clean and tidy, with all kinds of ingredients and seasonings available.
Ruyin began to knead the dough skillfully, and the girl brought a wooden board to press the dough, and they worked in perfect harmony to make noodles.
"Senior Sister, what kind of soup do you usually make as an appetizer?" Qin Muyue asked curiously.
Ruyin answered while busying herself: "I am good at making some mushroom medicinal food, which can not only nourish the body, but also help with cultivation. You know what, the chickens raised in Tianyi Palace are delicious."
Qin Muyue watched Ruyin skillfully making chicken stewed with mushrooms. The aroma of mushrooms and meat filled her nose. She swallowed her saliva. This time she was really hungry.
Soon, a bowl of chicken and mushroom noodle soup was served on the table.
Qin Muyue took a bite and her tongue almost fell off because of the fragrance: "Senior sister's cooking skills are really amazing, so amazing."
Ruyin smiled and waved her hand: "It's nothing. If you like, I can teach you later."
The two of them ate and chatted, and the atmosphere was very harmonious. While Qin Muyue was eating, she saw a little man dancing beside the stove.
[I never thought I would see a villain again in my lifetime]
[Daozu, your body in the dream world is actually invaded by hundreds of poisons]
[Oh no, my body ran away on its own]
The girl seemed to be controlled by the plot and ran after the villain, and even Ru Yin couldn't catch up.
She smoothly knocked over many things, broke into the backyard of Chonghua Temple, and rolled into the bathroom.
The bathroom was filled with mist, the sound of water gurgling, and a faint fragrance filled the air.
When Qin Muyue looked up, she saw Li Wangzun soaking in the hot spring with his eyes closed. His long hair fluttered gently in the water like black silk.
His chest and abdomen were well-defined, and his figure was well-proportioned, which perfectly matched his fairy-like face.
Li Wangzun heard the noise and slowly opened his eyes. His deep gaze penetrated the mist and fell on Qin Muyue.
No matter how kind-hearted Li Wangzun was, his face darkened gradually when he was stared at by the girl's wise eyes.
Qin Muyue, whose consciousness was clear but whose body was forcibly controlled, discovered that the divine light on Li Wang's face had disappeared, and his true face revealed while bathing was actually Yun Zhihe's face.
The girl was still sick after eating Jianshouqing. She pounced on people everywhere, messing up the shelves and wooden barrels of the hot spring, just like a Samoyed destroying the house. "Don't leave, you are not allowed to leave."
[Hey, Daozu, isn’t that face Yun Zhihe?]
[Since this is Yun Zhihe’s dream, it seems that this is his body after the tribulation. He didn’t want to go to the mortal world but chose to come to the immortal world. He is very brave.]
Li Wangzun's face became increasingly gloomy. He stood up from the hot spring, water drops sliding down his body. His voice was as cold as snow on a cold river: "Qin Xinggui, what are you doing?"
Qin Muyue saw her body following the plot and with a ferocious look on her face, she pounced towards her cheap master whom she had just worshipped.
[Hiss... This basket is big and round, just like the Seven Passion Whip in Li Wang's hand, long and fast]
Li Wangzun's face was as calm as the calm before the storm, and a hint of anger flashed in his eyes that were like orchid leaves.
"How dare you!" His voice was flustered and a little angry. The Seven Emotions Whip in his hand was like a flash of lightning, cutting through the air and hitting Qin Muyue directly.
The girl was beaten so hard that she rolled on the ground, with sparks and blood all over the place.
Li Wangzun stood in the hot spring, his body surrounded by water vapor, his eyes full of indifference.
He looked at the girl as if he was looking at a stranger, a disciple who had disappointed him.
[Oh, the sky is collapsing]
[Daozu, this is really hot! ]
[It hurts, it hurts, it hurts so much]
The girl's body trembled on the cold ground, her back was numb with pain. She wanted to explain, but her tongue was numb and she couldn't say anything.
Li Wang's hand flashed with spiritual power, and he dressed neatly. Just as he was about to question Qin Muyue, Ruyin ran over.
"Your Majesty, don't blame my junior sister, blame me. I wasn't paying attention when I was making the mushrooms, and let her be bewitched by Jianshouqing!" Ruyin knelt down and begged.
Li Wangzun's expression was still gloomy. His gaze swept across Ruyin and then fell on Qin Muyue.
His voice was cold: "Ruyin, although you made a mistake, how can Qin Xinggui's rude behavior be easily forgiven just because of your explanation?"
Ruyin's face turned pale. She knew Li Wangzun's temper. Once a decision was made, it was difficult to change it.
But she still mustered up the courage and continued to persuade: "Your Majesty, Junior Sister was poisoned by the Jianshouqing. This is my sole responsibility. Please don't blame her."
The girl had recovered from the severe pain. She raised her head with great effort and said in a weak but firm voice, "Your Majesty, it is my fault. I should not have entered your bathing place while unconscious. I am willing to accept any punishment."
Li Wang was silent for a moment, and a complex expression flashed in his eyes. Finally, he slowly said, "Since you are all willing to take responsibility, then, Qin Xinggui, you will copy the sect rules a hundred times as a punishment. Ruyin, you will be responsible for supervising her."
Qin Muyue and Ruyin bowed their heads at the same time: "Yes, Your Majesty."
Li Wang turned around, waved his sleeves, and left the bathroom, leaving Qin Muyue and Ruyin behind.
Ruyin hurried forward, helped Qin Muyue up, and asked with concern: "Junior sister, how do you feel? I will take you to heal your wounds first."
"No need. Let's go copy the sect rules." The girl shook her head. Although the pain in her back was still there, she decided not to endure it. Based on her understanding of Yun Zhihe, as long as he felt sorry for her, this dream copy would be safe.
Ruyin patted her hand gently and comforted her: "Don't worry, I will help you."
Ruyin supported Qin Muyue and slowly walked out of the bathroom and headed towards the calligraphy and painting room of Xuanhua Palace.
In the calligraphy and painting room of Xuanhua Palace, the bookshelves are filled with various ancient books and scrolls, and the air is filled with the faint scent of ink.
With Ruyin's support, Qin Muyue slowly sat down at the desk with the rules of Tianyi Palace spread out in front of her.
Ruyin said softly, "Junior sister, you take a rest first. I will prepare some writing brushes and ink, and we will copy together."
Qin Muyue nodded, her eyes fell on the sect rules, feeling helpless as to why she would get hurt as soon as she entered this kind of illusion.
Soon, Ruyin came back with the brush and ink. She handed the brush to Qin Muyue and encouraged her, "Let's copy together. It will be faster this way."
Qin Muyue took the brush, took a deep breath, and began to copy carefully.
Although her handwriting was trembling due to the pain, every stroke was free and easy, with a focus on speed.
Li Wang was observing all this quietly from a distance. There was still not much expression on his face, but there was a hint of tenderness in his eyes.
As time went by, Qin Muyue gradually felt herself trembling all over. She did not realize that the whip wounds on her back were from a magical weapon. Due to continuous blood loss, her back was already covered in blood.
Seeing this, Ruyin asked her to rest for a while. The girl was still thinking about not suffering any more, and her pale lips opened into a smile: "It's okay, I can still hold on!"
The girl's hand holding the pen moved slower and slower, drawing twisted lines on the paper. Her small body tilted and she fell down.
A crack finally appeared on Li Wang's originally calm and graceful face.
His figure instantly appeared beside Qin Muyue, his fingers gently placed on her pulse, his brows furrowed.
A rare hint of worry flashed across Li Wang's eyes.
There was a flash of spiritual light in his hand, and a warm spiritual energy slowly flowed into Qin Muyue's body. The wound on her back began to heal at a speed visible to the naked eye.
The girl's face gradually regained a trace of color. She slowly opened her eyes and saw Li Wang staring at her.
“Your Majesty…” Qin Muyue’s voice was weak, and her face was pale, like a shaky little white flower, “I…I can continue copying.”
Li Wangzun was silent for a moment, and finally sighed. His voice softened: "You should rest first. There is no rush to copy the sect rules."
Ruyin also advised: "Junior sister, your health is more important, wait until your injury is healed before talking."
Qin Muyue wanted to say something, but when she saw the looks in Li Wangzun and Ruyin's eyes, she was secretly happy in her heart, but she nodded with a heartbroken expression on her face.
Li Wang stood up and said to Ruyin, "Take good care of her. I will prepare some medicinal food to help her recover."
Ruyin winked at the girl and whispered, "Junior sister, you are in for a treat. Your Majesty's cooking is delicious."
After Li Wang left, Ruyin helped the girl sit on the couch, gently held her hand, and whispered: "Junior sister, it's all my fault. If it weren't for the fact that I didn't cook the mushrooms well enough."
"It's okay, Senior Sister, you just mean well. Besides, the mushroom candy is so delicious. We cultivators will just have to lie in bed for two days at most. We're still brave men!" The girl didn't feel sick after drinking it. She even wanted to have another bowl. However, she had caused such a big mess that Ruyin would probably never leave her any.
