Chapter 93 Only those who can brave the wilderness are true heroes!

Fahai left, leaving behind only a mess.

Bai Suzhen dispersed her immortal power, and the cold light on the sword was completely extinguished. The Baiyi Sword in her hand broke into two pieces, with only a dim silver mark at the break, just like her eyes at this moment, empty and tired.

"elder sister……"

Xiaoqing wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth, quickly walked to Bai Suzhen's side, tugged at her sleeve, and said in a defiant and urgent tone, "My elixir is still here! Why don't you take mine?"

Bai Suzhen was brought back to her senses by her words. She turned to look at Xiaoqing's serious face and couldn't help but smile wryly. She reached out and gently patted the top of her head: "Silly girl, there's no reason to give away elixirs."

"Why not! You're almost an immortal, while I'm still a snake. Wouldn't it be more worthwhile for you to become an immortal first and then come to save me?"

Xiaoqing advised, since she wasn't really interested in becoming an immortal anyway.

Shen Yi coughed lightly and interjected, "Xiao Qing, what we just drank was an elixir, or rather, a mixed elixir. It was all distributed when it was given to the three of you."

Xiaoqing was stunned: "So, not only can my sister not become an immortal now, but we can't either?"

"Indeed."

Shen Yi shrugged. He still suspected that Guanyin Bodhisattva was behind all of this, but regardless of whether she was or not, he wouldn't be able to become an immortal anytime soon.

"What do we do now! The elixir is gone, how can my sister become an immortal?!"

Xiaoqing stamped her foot in frustration, looking at Shen Yi with some confusion. Suddenly, her eyes lit up. "That's it! Since you know how to refine pills, why not refine a few more?"

Looking into Xiaoqing's sparkling eyes, Shen Yi was speechless. He murmured, "Where am I supposed to find another thousand-year-old purple bat spirit, or another dragon king willing to cut off his horns and give them to me?"

Wait, it seems there really is one...

His gaze unconsciously drifted to the trembling figure still cowering behind Bai Suzhen. Although this ginseng spirit only had five hundred years of cultivation, it did not mean that he had only lived for five hundred years. You must know that his grandson, the little ginseng spirit, was a thousand-year-old ginseng spirit. It was just that the cultivation of plants was difficult, so he only had five hundred years of magical power so far.

Xiaoqing followed his gaze and stared at the ginseng spirit, remaining motionless. This one did indeed seem very suitable for alchemy.

The old ginseng spirit trembled under the gazes of those two eyes and hurriedly shrank back behind Bai Suzhen, almost hiding itself completely in her shadow.

Bai Suzhen noticed the commotion behind her, turned around and glanced at him, then looked at Shen Yi and Xiao Qing's two malicious eyes, and shook her head helplessly: "Don't mess with him. His cultivation is not easy. It took him five hundred years to become a spirit of plants and trees, which is a hundred times more difficult than for us snake demons."

"Ahem, I couldn't help myself, I couldn't help myself."

Shen Yi turned his face away awkwardly. Even if he had to make a move, he couldn't bring himself to do it. Unlike the thousand-year-old purple bat spirit, this old ginseng spirit wasn't a bad person.

Although Xiaoqing was still somewhat unwilling, after hearing what her sister said, she had no choice but to give up.

The old ginseng spirit sensed that the atmosphere had eased somewhat, and only then did it dare to peek out from behind Bai Suzhen. It cautiously glanced at Shen Yi, then at Xiao Qing, hesitated for a while, and finally tremblingly reached out and plucked a few strands from its long white beard.

With a flick of his wrist, the beard transformed into several slender ginseng whiskers, crystal clear and exuding a faint spiritual aura of vegetation.

"I have no way to repay your life-saving kindness."

The old ginseng spirit spoke solemnly, saying that after all, it was he who had led Fahai here, so this could be considered compensation: "These few ginseng roots, though not comparable to elixirs, are still somewhat useful for regulating qi and blood and strengthening the foundation."

Shen Yi took the ginseng rootlets. They felt warm and smooth to the touch, and he could clearly feel a cool, refreshing spiritual energy of plants flowing slowly within them.

"polite."

It was indeed a good thing. It couldn't be used as the main ingredient, but it was still fine as a supplementary ingredient for alchemy. He rarely bowed seriously and carefully put away the ginseng root.

"Senior Quanzhen, when are we going back to the human world?"

After seeing off the old ginseng spirit, Ba Liangbai said listlessly, "This demonic path is too boring. I can't even tell day from night. When I go out, I have to be careful not to be targeted by monsters. I really don't feel at ease."

Return to the human world?

Shen Yi was somewhat tempted by what he heard, but couldn't help looking at Bai Suzhen.

To be honest, he really liked Bai Suzhen. Her gentle nature and profound cultivation made it hard for him not to feel close to her.

If he could, he would really like to marry such a gentle and virtuous snake demon as his wife.

What happened to the heroes of the common people?

A true hero is one who can be both brave and reckless!

However, Bai Suzhen was a snake demon who had been enlightened by Guanyin Bodhisattva, and she herself was devoted to Taoism. In the original story, even though she was deeply in love with Xu Xian, she tried again and again to sever her feelings for him, but in the end she could not bear to part with him and ended up with Xu Xian.

"Are you leaving...?"

Bai Suzhen was slightly taken aback, opened her mouth as if she had something to say, but didn't know where to begin.

These past two days, she and Shen Yi have been discussing the Dao and had a very pleasant conversation. She felt that her Daoist skills had improved a lot. Not to mention that she already had a good impression of Shen Yi. Now that they have suddenly parted, she feels a little empty inside.

"Yes, after all, it's not appropriate for me to stay in the Demonic Path for a long time."

In fact, there are indeed humans in the world of demonic cultivation. In the original story, Fahai almost took a child whose father was human and mother was a demon for a monster, and he went blind on the spot.

This is also why he didn't stop Bai Suzhen from handing the elixir to Fahai earlier. If Fahai had dared to eat it, the elixir would have truly crippled him.

However, Shen Yi really didn't want to stay in the Demonic Path forever, since you can't even see the stars in the Demonic Path.

Bai Suzhen was feeling a little down. She didn't press for details, but simply lowered her eyes and softly hummed in agreement.

Xiaoqing, however, boldly approached and grabbed Shen Yi's sleeve: "Where are you going? Will we ever see each other again?"

"Where are you going? You've stumped me with that question."

Shen Yi stroked his chin. Regardless of where he was going, he needed to find something to do. He didn't want to be just another tool in the chat group.

"Qiantang County, I suppose."

How about opening a Tongfu Inn?

Or perhaps Yuelai Inn?

However, opening an inn seems too troublesome. Not to mention, you need to have waiters and cooks. Forget it, it's too much trouble.

As for why he went to Qiantang County, it wasn't because Bai Suzhen would go there in the future, but because he suddenly remembered that Lian Qiao seemed to be in Qiantang County as well. Since he couldn't marry Bai Suzhen, marrying Lian Qiao wouldn't be bad either.

"Qiantang County..."

Xiaoqing had no idea what Shen Yi was thinking. She just repeated those three words once, as if she had memorized them, and then tilted her head to look at him. "By the way, you still haven't told me how to sing that song you were humming earlier."

Shen Yi paused for a moment before realizing she was referring to "You'll Be My Companion in This Life," and couldn't help but chuckle: "You like it?"
