Demons and monsters wreak havoc: gain one new confidante every day.
Chapter 79 Creation Dew
To master the "Five Immortals' Great Strength," one needs to fuse five poisons and create entirely new ones, which poses a huge challenge to Shen You's imagination and creativity.
After much thought, Shen You decided that the only way to get inspiration was to gather five more poisonous creatures and observe them every day.
This matter cannot be done casually. After all, the poisonous creature he creates represents the essence and form of his future "Five Immortals Great Strength". If the poisonous creature has any defects, it is equivalent to his "Five Immortals Great Strength" having defects, which will have a great impact on his future combat power.
"I must use the experience I gained from examining thousands of poisons in my past life to create the most suitable poison!" Shen You thought to himself. "Damn old ghost Huang, don't think you can stump me like this. You'll be in for a surprise!"
After bidding farewell to Huang Yaoshi, Shen You returned to his room, savored the delicacies that Aunt Dou had asked Tian Yi'er to bring back, and recharged his energy in preparation for today's demon-hunting mission.
Before they could even set off, a young apprentice in green robes suddenly ran over and said, "Senior Brother Shen, a young lady named Xiao Hui has come over. She says she is your little sister."
Shen You's status in the entire Huangfeng Academy is now quite extraordinary, second only to the three white-robed senior brothers. Therefore, the other green-robed apprentices are willing to do errands and deliver messages for Shen You in order to curry favor with him.
Shen You was slightly curious, not expecting Xiao Hui to come over at this time. However, he immediately became happy, as he needed Xiao Hui's help to buy more poison.
"Quickly, invite her in for me," Shen You instructed the apprentice in blue. The apprentice quickly led Xiao Hui in.
"Big brother, long time no see!" Xiao Hui exclaimed in surprise upon seeing Shen You, her eyes widening. "Big brother, you've become even more handsome!"
Since practicing the "Qing Nang Jing", Shen You's temperament and appearance have changed every day. Now he has a handsome face and an extraordinary demeanor, regaining some of the elegant young nobleman he once was.
Shen You smiled at Xiao Hui and said, "I've practiced Renxintang's 'Qingnang Scripture,' and I've only just reached the Great Perfection stage. Once I've mastered it, it will be even more beautiful!"
Xiao Hui laughed excitedly, "Hehe, then I'll definitely look forward to it!"
Since confirming their sibling relationship, the two have become increasingly intimate and casual in their conversations, as if they were real family. Shen You always feels very comfortable spending time with such a lively younger sister.
"Xiao Hui, you came to see me so early in the morning. Is there something you want to tell me?" Shen You asked.
Xiao Hui immediately remembered, her expression tightening as she said, "Big brother, it was Miss who called me here; she has important news to tell you!"
"Important news?" Shen You raised an eyebrow.
Xiao Hui glanced nervously at Tian Yi'er standing next to her.
Tian Yi'er, sensing the situation, prepared to take her leave.
Shen You reached out to stop him: "Xiao Tian, there's no need to avoid him. Xiao Hui, this is my brother. You don't need to look at him when you have something to say."
Tian Yi'er immediately showed a touching expression.
Xiao Hui nodded and began to explain.
It turns out that Miss Lin had been investigating the matter of Bi Lin Lang Jun. She read through a large number of ancient books, trying to find out why Bi Lin Lang Jun would kill a large number of women in Rongcheng, and why he would commit such a heinous act again after fifty years.
Miss Lin had been investigating for a long time without any results and was almost about to give up when, by chance, she picked up a book related to the Liu family, glanced at it, and discovered a clue in it.
"It turns out that the Liu family has always had a secret method to sacrifice women with blood and refine a spiritual medicine that can seize the essence of heaven and earth." Xiao Hui said solemnly, her face tense.
"What kind of elixir?" Shen You asked, frowning.
"That elixir... is called 'Creation Dew'," Xiao Hui said. "According to the records in the ancient books, it has the power to transform demons and ghosts, allowing them to reshape their physical bodies and transform into human form."
Xiao Hui said mysteriously, "According to Miss's speculation, the ancestors of the Liu family may have been demons long ago! Because they consumed the 'Creation Dew,' they transformed into humans and established such a large empire in Rongcheng!"
"Such a miraculous medicine actually exists!" Shen You exclaimed in surprise, then a thought struck her: "If that's the case, does that mean Lord Bilin's goal is also to consume the 'Creation Dew' and transform into a human?"
"Miss thinks that's possible!" Xiao Hui nodded.
She added, "But there's another point that deserves even more attention, which is..."
"The Liu family!" Shen You blurted out first. "If this is a secret technique of the Liu family, then why is it in the hands of the Jade Scale Gentleman? Does the Jade Scale Gentleman have some kind of collusion with the Liu family?"
As Shen You spoke, a chill ran through her own heart.
Just half a month ago, Liu Gongbai and Bilin Langjun had a fierce battle right in front of him.
But now it seems that if there was some connection between the two, could it be that... the previous battle was just a play put on by Liu Gongbai and Bilin Langjun?
"Senior Brother Liu..."
Shen You couldn't help but clench her fist.
"...Did you know the truth all along and have been deceiving everyone all this time?"
To be honest, Shen You still held Liu Gongbai in high esteem and trusted this senior brother Liu.
But knowing that Liu Gongbai might be deceiving him made him feel uneasy.
With a sigh of relief, Shen You said to Xiao Hui, "Xiao Hui, thank you for bringing this news. I will go to the Liu family to find out the truth... Oh, by the way, I need your help with something."
"What kind of help?" Xiao Hui blinked and said, "Just tell me, big brother, and I promise I'll get it done for you!"
"As before, I need you to buy poison from the Blackwater Hall for me," Shen You said with a smile. "However, this time I need one more of each of the previous five poisons, and I require that their size, strength, and even toxicity be as consistent as possible."
"Understood!" Xiao Hui nodded. "I'll go ask the Blackwater Gang; these poisons shouldn't be hard to find!"
"Okay, thank you, Xiaohui." Shen You reached out and rubbed Xiaohui's head, and Xiaohui's eyes immediately squinted with happiness.
After seeing Xiao Hui off, it was time for the demon-hunting team to assemble.
Shen You brought Tian Yi'er to the meeting point, where Liu Gongbai was standing in front of everyone as always, dressed in white, pure as snow, with an elegant and otherworldly temperament, like a celestial being.
"Shen You, you're here!" Hong Xiugu happily approached first, but then snorted, "Why are you late? I've been waiting for you for ages!"
"I'm sorry, Xiu Gu, I'll apologize to you later." Shen You smiled and walked past Hong Xiu Gu.
"Xiu...Xiu-gu?" Hong Xiu-gu was stunned, and it took her a long time to come to her senses. She turned around and scolded Shen Youjiao, "How dare you call me by my name!"
Shen You ignored her and had already arrived in front of Liu Gongbai.
"Senior Brother Liu."
Shen You stared intently at Liu Gongbai: "Could you grant me this favor? There are some things I want to clarify."
Liu Gongbai looked over with some doubt, frowned, and nodded, saying, "Okay."
He led Shen You to the side.
