He became the True Lord of Ten Thousand Laws starting from Liaozhai.

Upon hearing that his child had been poisoned and that even Xu Yi was helpless, Zhang Zheng hurriedly carried Li Jiangyuan off the ox's back. He dared not use too much force, and even pulled out a cloud to hold Li Jiangyuan down.

Zhang Zhengyi had been stuck at the Dharma Aspect Realm for too long and had not had the opportunity to break through. Therefore, in the past hundred years, he had learned many other miscellaneous things, including medicine.

Zhang Zhengyi has also studied this aspect for a long time.

He activated his divine eye and began to examine Li Jiangyuan's entire body. This was his method, and also one of the medical techniques he had compiled into magic.

He quickly concluded: "This is centipede venom, but not in large doses, not even enough to kill a mortal easily."

Zhang Zhengyi was puzzled. How could this evil monk be so unskilled at poisoning people? Could it be that he was deliberately trying to disgust people?

He glanced at Xu Yi, who smiled helplessly and said, "Pu Du really went to great lengths to delay me."

"However, he succeeded."

Zhang Zhengyi listened from the side. It seemed that Mr. Xu had indeed won. However, the so-called evil monk known as Pudu seemed to have escaped as well.

Yes, yes, how could these powerful cultivators so easily decide life and death when they fight? Logically speaking, cultivators at this stage should only fight to the death if they really want to kill each other.

Otherwise, neither side would have been able to chase the other down so easily. If they wanted to escape, these cultivators at the Five Qi Gathering stage had plenty of tricks up their sleeves.

In a battle between people of the same cultivation level, killing the other is extremely difficult, especially since the two of them have already reached the pinnacle of this world. According to Zhang Zhengyi's calculations, if it were to be a life-or-death battle, it would probably take three to five years before anyone could determine who was superior.

However, since Pudu had run away, that was what he was most worried about. He was afraid that Pudu would come back for revenge. Li Jiangyuan was a very special child, so special that even the evil monk Pudu coveted him.

"Mr. Xu, this poison is easy to cure, please wait a moment." Zhang Zhengyi whispered to Xu Yi. He gently tapped his index finger, and a wisp of green light, like starlight, flew from his fingertip and into Li Jiangyuan's body, merging with his body.

"Cough...cough."

Li Jiangyuan, who was unconscious, coughed heavily a few times, coughing up a pool of black blood. Slowly, Li Jiangyuan opened his eyes.

He first saw Zhang Zhengyi standing to the side, the old man looking at him with a worried expression.

Then he saw Mr. Xu Yi behind Zhang Zhengyi.

Oh, it's Master who's back.

Li Jiangyuan smiled. She thought she would never have the chance to see Mr. in this life. Was she already dead?

Wasn't the master not coming back? I was stabbed by the evil monk and fell unconscious; I'm afraid my chances of survival are slim...

Li Jiangyuan felt his consciousness was very blurry. Was he already dead?

Is this paradise? Wasn't Grandpa Zhang already killed by that evil monk?

This must be paradise.

Li Jiangyuan felt a very bitter taste in his mouth.

"Cough cough..."

He spat out another mouthful of black blood, but this time the blood was mixed with a lot of red.

Li Jiangyuan was jolted awake by the loud cough. He finally saw the world clearly and gasped for breath. After inhaling this mouthful of air, Li Jiangyuan finally came to his senses.

"Sir...Grandpa Zhang, where are we?"

Although he was familiar with everything here, he couldn't be sure whether this was Little Chongshan or the so-called underworld.

"Hehe, this is naturally Little Chongshan," Zhang Zhengyi replied, stroking his beard.

"Grandpa Zhang, but aren't we all dead? Can't we be reincarnated?"

Li Jiangyuan was also anxious after hearing this; he wouldn't feel comfortable with any of the possible outcomes.

Even hearing that they were still alive, Li Jiangyuan still found it incredible.

He felt that Grandpa Zhang was lying to him.

"Jiang Yuan, I think you've lost your mind. You're so young, yet you keep talking about dying all the time." Zhang Zheng frowned, pressing a finger firmly on Li Jiang Yuan's head.

Li Jiangyuan felt the pain. Zhang Zhengyi had used a lot of force; he wanted to make it clear to this brat that he was still alive and hadn't died yet!

"Speaking of death all the time is unlucky. Spit it out! Your husband is still here." Zhang Zhengyi said, feigning displeasure.

Just as Zhang Zhengyi pointed out the key points to Li Jiangyuan, it seemed as if a wisp of pure energy entered his body through his fingertips, instantly making him much more awake and his mind clearer.

He finally realized what had happened; it was a huge blunder.

He hurriedly jumped down from the cloud and knelt in front of Xu Yi, saying in a wronged tone, "Master, I was unaware of the situation just now and offended you. I hope you will punish me."

Li Jiangyuan looked pitiful and aggrieved. The old ox bypassed Xu Yi, came up to him, and gently nudged Li Jiangyuan with its nose.

The latter instantly understood what the old ox meant: ignore him, he wasn't angry at all.

Even with Lao Niu's guarantee, Li Jiangyuan still dared not get up, as the master had not yet spoken.

Old Niu's words don't carry any weight.

"Alright, it's nothing serious. Don't kneel on the ground anymore, it'll get your clothes dirty. I'll have Old Niu take you home in a bit, go see your mother."

"Something terrible has happened in Fangyuan City. Go back and let them know you're safe."

Xu Yi helped Li Jiangyuan up and told him what had happened these past few days.

In fact, Li Jiangyuan knew a lot about it, but he didn't know what exactly happened in Fangyuan City. Now that he heard about it, he was very worried. He wondered if something had happened to his mother and father.

This evil monk is despicable. Li Jiangyuan already harbors a grudge against him. If one day I, Li Jiangyuan, achieve great success in immortal arts, I will first use this man as a sacrifice on my path to enlightenment.

He already had a grand goal in mind.

However, if Xu Yi heard this, it would still be unbelievable. He didn't quite agree with Li Jiangyuan's idea. Having a goal is good, but this goal is too ambitious. He still believes that people should be down-to-earth and take things one step at a time.

You should at least achieve one small goal in life first, and then work step by step towards your biggest goal.

"Yes, sir." Li Jiangyuan bowed respectfully and then approached the old ox.

The old ox gently nuzzled Li Jiangyuan with its head, and Li Jiangyuan hugged the old ox's head in return.

"Huh, I seem to have forgotten where Yun Song went." Thinking of this, Li Jiangyuan asked Zhang Zhengyi.

Zhang Zheng scratched his head and said awkwardly, "This is a long story, but Yun Song should be back soon."

He didn't tell Li Jiangyuan that he had actually dismissed all the spirits and monsters. He had been busy nurturing Liang Jing and planned to leave Xiaochongshan after Xu Yi returned.

But I didn't expect them to return so quickly. Now only the spirits of Xiaochongshan and Liang Jing have not returned.
