Chapter 209 Exposed
After hearing this, the little boy asked Mu Yunyun, "Mother, Father has agreed to the marriage, are you happy?"
"Of course I'm happy." Mu Yunyun didn't expect him to agree, but after spending several months together and having a cub, it would be a lie to say she wasn't used to it.
“Your father is a man who gets angry easily. If your mother says she is unhappy, your father will throw a tantrum and ignore her.”
Upon hearing this, Shao Yi tried to snatch the cub away, refusing to let her hold it.
Mu Yunyun stepped aside to avoid him, and then took his hand in her hand: "Look, you're angry again."
"you!"
She put her arm around his waist: "Okay, it was just a joke. I'm really happy, really."
"Isn't it for the cubs?" He let her hug him, but he still wanted to ask for clarification.
Mu Yunyun thought for a moment and said, "What I said that day was true."
"What?" Shaoyi didn't understand.
Mu Yunyun met his puzzled gaze.
“What I said that day in Qishan was true.”
"Mu Bai is soft-hearted and lacks initiative, Di Xi has a bad temper and is impulsive in everything he does, Ying Ze is still young and can't be relied on for anything, Ye Yu is calm, but he has always been reserved and there are many things I don't know how to say."
She said, “Only adults are different. Your cultivation is higher than mine. Even if I am sick and in pain, I will not lose face. In front of you, I do not need to be too strong. Even if I mess things up, you will not laugh at me, but will take care of things for me. Perhaps I have become used to having a way out, and I have become more dependent on you in everything.”
"My lord, tell me, isn't this for the sake of the cubs?"
She asked him a question with sincere eyes.
Looking at her like that, Shao Yi's heart, which had never been moved before, was burning hot.
However, he still cared about his image: "You mean I'm old, right?"
There are so many twists and turns, but he doesn't understand them; he just doesn't want to expose them.
Mu Yunyun retorted, "So what if the adults have been cultivating in the mountains for a thousand years? They still can't use chopsticks, but the cubs can."
The little guy nodded: "Mom is right, Dad doesn't know how to use chopsticks yet."
Shaoyi turned and left.
Mu Yunyun quickly followed up: "You're angry again. I'm just telling the truth, and you're ignoring me."
"Okay, okay, it's my fault. I won't make fun of you again."
"How about a dish of small silver fish?"
Shaoyi suddenly stopped and turned around.
Two dishes.
"Deal." Mu Yunyun said, "Come with me to the Qi family later."
"Then three dishes it is."
......
Qi Yue's illness cannot be delayed.
After making arrangements for the clan, Mu Yunyun prepared to go there.
As for the Great Return to Origin Pill, Mu Yunyun had never refined it. She had seen the formula in the alchemy manual after breaking through to the fifth level. The reason she remembered it was because the four words "Great Return to Origin Pill" were in extra-large bold font in the system, making it hard to miss.
Moreover, there is a line of smaller text below.
Those who have not yet formed their elixir should proceed with caution when practicing this method.
Mu Yunyun had already formed her core on Wuwang Mountain. She didn't know why this was specifically marked, since Qi Yue had said that after awakening the spiritual veins, one should naturally form a core, and only after forming a core could one have a Qi Sea.
Even though she didn't understand, she still wanted to give it a try.
"You want to refine the Great Return to Origin Pill?"
Shennong looked on in disbelief when he saw her coming to get the medicine.
"just you?"
The elders looked at each other, feeling as if they had heard a joke.
"As I said before, the Great Return to Origin Pill is a rare and divine medicine in the world. I don't care where you got the formula from, but with your current level of cultivation, you are not qualified to refine this pill. So save your trouble."
The younger disciples nodded in agreement.
"Please don't be angry, my lady. My master is only advising you because you are the ancestor's partner. Such pills can only be understood by those with profound cultivation. Even so, they are fraught with danger. Once the Qi Sea is damaged, the loss will outweigh the gain."
Alchemists use spiritual energy to extract the essence of wood spirits. This spiritual energy must be as deep as the ocean in order to continuously extract its essence for use in elixirs.
Shennong had seen too many people who were so determined to refine elixirs that they wasted half their life's cultivation.
That's why I specifically warned her.
Mu Yunyun took a deep breath: "Consider it a debt I owe him. Please, elders, arrange the medicinal herbs. There's no need to persuade him any further."
"this......"
The younger disciples looked at Shaoyi, who remained silent beside them.
"Ancestor, look..."
"It's fine as long as she makes the decision."
The elders knew they couldn't persuade her otherwise, so they decided to make one last attempt: "These medicinal herbs are very rare and expensive."
“Price is not a problem. No matter how much it costs in Dongzhuhai currency, the elders can rest assured.”
Seeing her insistence, the elders gritted their teeth and said, "Fine, I'll go and make the arrangements."
As they passed Shaoyi, the clan elders bowed and said, "Please, Ancestor, let us speak in private."
Shaoyi nodded and followed them out, where they led her through a maze of twists and turns into an inner hall.
"This is where we refine pills, and no one will disturb us. What we are about to say is very important for our ancestor to know."
Some people nodded.
"This is also the conclusion we reached after discussing it."
“We mountain beasts have always been one family. Even if we are not from the same lineage, we still look after each other. Let me be frank with some things.”
Shaoyi is a Qingluan, a member of the Wanxuan Mountain clan, all of whom fly in the sky.
Shennong was associated with many beasts, and although they were not of the same lineage, they were still intricately connected.
All the beasts have interacted with each other.
“Elder, please speak freely,” Shaoyi said.
"Our ancestors also knew that in the battle of the First Ancestor, our Shennong clan was in dire straits. Therefore, they improved the formula of the Rejuvenating Pill so that our mountain beasts would have a way out."
This is an old story from back then.
Shao Yi has cultivated for a thousand years, but it is still a long time since the time of the progenitor. She does not know these things and has only heard a little about them.
"The name 'Huan Yan Dan' means 'rejuvenation pill.' Before the formula was improved, it only had some effect on preserving youth."
"However, after the pill formula is improved, the mother's womb is cut open to extract the pill for medicine. This not only allows the true body to be hidden, but also allows the offspring to inherit the mother's spiritual veins and energy sea."
Shao Yi frowned: "What exactly does the elder mean by that?"
The elders sighed: "There are traces of this pill on this woman's body, but the formula for the Rejuvenating Pill was passed down from our Shennong clan and has long since disappeared without a trace."
"Then why?"
"After much discussion, we can only come to one conclusion: Shennong made many offerings to the sacred mountain every year, and this is the only explanation."
"You mean, she comes from the sacred mountain?"
What kind of place is Mount Shenshan?
Those who reach the highest levels of enlightenment throughout the land and sea are all on the sacred mountain.
"How could that be?" Shaoyi shook her head. "She was born into a poor family, merely a low-ranking clan, and she rose through hard work..."
Shaoyi's words came to an abrupt end.
Seeing his reaction, the elders said, "Sir, you must have thought of this. Even though you have lived in Wanxuan Mountain for a long time, you have only heard about things like racial spiritual veins. There are probably very few people in the world who can use the five elements spiritual veins to activate a great formation. If it is really a low-level race, how can it have such strength? Don't forget, the Rejuvenation Pill has the effect of concealing one's true form."
