From a Zhengyi Taoist Child to a Master of All Laws

Chapter 169: Dirty and Kind

What made Li Yang frown was that although they were waiting for him, there were some strange expressions on their faces.

After Huang Yu explained the situation, Li Yang's face turned cold.
"Lead the way."

Their destination was the newly built municipal hospital.

In one of the most luxurious wards in the hospital, a person with a horrific body was lying on the bed with a painful expression.

Her body was full of various nutrition tubes, but she was frighteningly thin, and her sparse, dry hair was stuck to her forehead by sweat.

No one would have thought that this skeleton-like monster on the hospital bed was a pretty twenty-year-old girl seven days ago.

Even the moment he stepped into the ward, Li Yang didn't recognize him.

His eyesight was very good, and he saw the nameplate of the bed.
Zhu Ling, 22 years old, suffered organ failure.

This was obviously not organ failure. Chen Xiyan, who was guarding Zhu Ling, was relieved to see Li Yang return safely.

"how is she?"

Without much greeting, Li Yang asked,
"The situation is not optimistic. The ghost child is still in her body. I used glutinous rice and cinnabar talismans to barely suppress the ghost child, but the girl's body is already at the end of its strength."

Chen Xiyan's face was filled with regret: "If I force the ghost child out, she will die on the spot. If I leave the ghost child in her body, she will also die of exhaustion in three days."

Li Yang frowned and stepped forward to check Zhu Ling's body.

This can no longer be considered a human body. It is like a piece of rotten wood that has been drained of its essence. It has no vitality at all.
Inside her body, a very sinister aura was stirring.

"She was very strong. With your life jade, she managed to hold on until I came back. However, my cultivation is shallow, and I really can't think of a way to save this girl."

Chen Xiyan is a congenital being and the headmaster of Mount Mao. In the way of ghosts and monsters, no one in the whole of China is more proficient than him.

If he can't do it, then no one else in China will be able to do it.
Li Yang let go of Zhu Ling's wrist. At this time, Zhu Ling's body was like a paper cage, but there was a monster imprisoned in the cage.

The paper cage is fragile and will be torn to pieces with the slightest movement.

Chen Xiyan showed reluctance and handed Li Yang a red string tassel.
"This girl asked Wang Shuhuan to give this to you. Wang Shuhuan said he couldn't face you, so he asked me to give it to you."

Li Yang took the tassel.

The tassels are very delicate, simple yet elegant, a style from the south of the Yangtze River, and are bright red and very pleasing to the eye.

"When you go to the sea, tie a red string, and when you become a good person, cut off your black hair"

Li Yang murmured this Jiangnan slang, and suddenly remembered the pretty girl who timidly asked him for two bowls of noodles that night.

He naturally recognized the material of the tassel.
It was the joy of a girl escaping from the abyss of hell, the only remaining dignity and tenderness of a Jiangnan woman.

It’s just that I’ve already rescued you, why, why are you so stupid to fall into it again?
Most people in this world are heartless and selfish, but there are girls in this world who are gentle, clear and calm like water to remind you that kindness still exists.

Li Yang solemnly put away the tassel, and then dotted a drop of milk between the girl's eyebrows.

"Two minutes later, in the conference room, ask Wang Shuhuan and the Xu family to come see me!"

Li Yang had a cold expression and walked away.

Chi Yanhong didn't know how to comfort her, so he chose to stay and look after Zhu Ling.

Two minutes later, when Wang Shuhuan, who was also in a weak state, and the mother and son of the Xu family opened the door of the conference room, Li Yang was sitting in the main seat with his arms and legs spread out.

"Wang Shuhuan, guess why I asked you to come here?"

Wang Shuhuan's face was pale, and the five signs of decay in heaven had tortured his body beyond recognition.

"Master Li...Yes, I'm sorry."

Wang Shuhuan knelt down dejectedly, tears streaming down his face.

Li Yang slapped Wang Shuhuan in the face with his palm, and the crisp sound echoed throughout the conference room.

Xu Yihe's face changed and she began to feel uneasy, but Mrs. Xu calmly pulled her aside.

"You should apologize, but it's not me you should apologize to."

"You should have been able to kill Tian Qixin and the unformed ghost child in time that day, but you didn't. You let a mortal girl do what you should have done."

Li Yang frowned as he looked at the clumsy guy in front of him. Everyone makes mistakes, and that's their own business.
But if you make a fool of yourself and affect others, then you are asking for trouble.

Wang Shuhuan is not a perfect person. At the age of a high school student, he suddenly entered a world of gods and demons and even had to fight against legendary things.

But fortunately, he met Li Yang.
This number one master of cultivation in China was not arrogant. He acted like a teacher and a friend to him, taking him to travel all over the country, doing things that could only appear in novels and strange stories.

He was a treasure at a young age, holding a sword that countless people envied, and he also met a girl, a girl who was the most beautiful girl in the world in his opinion.

He is like the protagonist in a play or novel.
This should be the most beautiful thing in the world.

But now, all the good things were gone, and it seemed that he had caused all of this. Not only did he suffer from the Five Degenerations of Heaven and Man, but he also implicated a kind girl who should not have been involved.

He was like a child who had made a mistake and wanted his parents' forgiveness. As he spoke, his eyes became red.

"Master Li... I really didn't know it would be like this..."

"I thought my spiritual awakening was enough. I thought Sister Yihe needed the sword pill more than I did..."

"I really didn't expect it to end like this..."

"I……"

Wang Shuhuan choked up and spoke incoherently, and before he knew it, tears were streaming down his face.

Xu Yihe saw this and felt very uncomfortable.

At this time, Li Yang's gaze had turned to her.

Xu Yihe was a little flustered and didn't dare to meet Li Yang's eyes.

When she turned around, she saw Mrs. Xu standing beside her, looking calm and composed.

She asked angrily, unable to contain her anger any longer.

"You knew this would happen from the beginning, didn't you?"

"You knew Wang Shuhuan had the sword pill. You gave me those ten days of freedom with Wang Shuhuan, and you said those words in the hotel that day, just to make him give me the sword pill!"

"You're using me!?"

Xu Yihe became more and more anxious as he spoke, with tears in his eyes.

As Xu Yihe continued to question them, Li Yang and Wang Shuhuan turned their gazes towards Madam Xu.

Li Yang's eyes looked strange, but if all this was really what Xu Yihe said, then this graceful lady was too cunning.
Li Yang recalled that day in the hotel. The geologist Lao Zhang was still stern towards the father and son of the Tian family, but he was extremely alert when facing Mrs. Xu.

Now that I think about it, the only thing Mrs. Xu didn't take into account was the matter between Tian Qixin and the ghost boy, which even involved Zhu Ling and caused Li Yang to intervene.

At this moment, facing the angry or strange looks from several people, Mrs. Xu remained graceful.

She looked at her daughter with cold eyes and said softly, "I have never used you. I am just fulfilling my responsibilities as a mother and head of the family. I am teaching you how to use your capital to maximize your benefits."

"You learned, did, and succeeded. You got the freedom you wanted and broke off the engagement with the Wada family. Shouldn't you be thanking me? How can you say you took advantage of me?"

"You!" Xu Yihe's eyes widened. "You're talking nonsense! I'm not as dirty as you think! I didn't know things would turn out like this!"

Madam Xu sneered: "You still have a choice now. You can return the sword pill that belongs to you now. In this way, according to what Tian Qixin said before he died, Wang Shuhuan has a chance not to die."

"But I want to remind you that you should know that sending the sword pill will definitely seriously damage your foundation. Forget about dreaming of cultivating immortals in this life. Then the Zhang family, the Li family, the Ma family, and their marriage proposals will come in droves."

"How about it? Use your qualifications for cultivating immortals to make up for your debt and marry someone. How about it? Make your choice?"

"I..." Xu Yihe was stunned and fell silent.

Sword ball.

What a precious thing that is.

She also has a matching method of controlling Qi. With this, it is only a matter of time before she achieves innate status.

Although this thing was given to me by Wang Shuhuan, it is mine now...

She turned her head to look at Wang Shuhuan who was lying on the ground. Wang Shuhuan had obviously heard these words and he also looked at her.

The two looked at each other, but the next moment Xu Yihe withdrew his gaze, lowered his head and fell silent.

Having experienced this once before, Wang Shuhuan gave a bitter smile and was not too surprised.

"Humph, Madam Xu, you are quite good at talking. Has the sword ball become your daughter's now?"

Li Yang's tone was strange, and Mrs. Xu did not answer.

Li Yang was too lazy to argue with this cunning lady named Yongrong.

"The sword pill was given away by Wang Shuhuan. I won't ask any more questions, but you should return the contents of the sword pill."

Xu Yihe's face changed, and just as she was about to say something, Li Yang waved his hand, and the sword ball on her body flew into Li Yang's hand.

Li Yang clasped his hands together and a ball of water vapor in the sword ball was separated out.

This is the real water captured by Wang Shuhuan in Dongting Lake.

Although its grade is much lower than what Li Yang got, it is definitely a divine object that is no less important than Jianwan.
