"Ok?"

The woman looked at him, puzzled.

He spoke slowly and deliberately, each word distinct and deliberate.

"Go to the Ten Thousand Demon Mountain, I will help you survive."

58. Survive, then kiss.

The packing and departure were rushed, like a spontaneous trip.

But Wei Tu knew this was not a trip.

In the Medicine King Pavilion, Wei Tu showed Mu Xitong the rather old book, which was even a handwritten copy, not the original.

It is called "Anecdotes and Hidden Stories".

This book was written by someone who loves to travel the world. It mainly records the interesting customs and traditions of people in different places and regions, as well as some magnificent sights that are worth seeing but are not known to many people.

In a hidden corner of the book, Wei Tu finally found an exciting record.

"It says...deep within the Ten Thousand Demon Mountains, there is a wondrous place. There is a pool of steaming spring water, surrounded by countless dazzling flowers, and various precious medicinal herbs grow there. He personally witnessed the wonders of this spiritual spring; even severed limbs could be restored within it, drawing upon the essence of heaven and earth, its wonders beyond words."

The woman, whose complexion was already noticeably poor and whose health was declining day by day, was momentarily dazed.

"This book has been sitting there for so long, and no one has mentioned it, not even my master. Now that you've finally seen it, do you know what that means?"

Wei Tu did not answer.

Mu Xitong said softly, "It means that either the author of this book is not well-known, or the things in this book are taken as jokes and have little authenticity. The more fantastical and wonderful it is written, the less authentic it is. Moreover, this book is a handwritten copy, and it is already so worn out. How long ago was it originally published? Time has passed, and the world has changed. How can a spiritual spring not run dry for many years?"

Mu Xitong appeared very calm, without even the slightest instinctive will to live that a dying person would have, and without any desire or fervor to survive.

Wei Tu finally spoke, "I don't know about these things, and I don't care about them. I only know that since we have finally obtained this hope, there is no reason to give it up without even taking a look."

Mu Xitong gave him a deep look. The boy's resolute gaze seemed capable of melting even the hardest ice, and it seemed that anyone would be involuntarily melted by such a look.

“You should know how dangerous the depths of the Ten Thousand Demon Mountains are. No matter what you say, you are only at the Dragon Slayer Realm now, and if I go, this will definitely be my last trip. It's even possible... I may never come back.”

Wei Tu did not soften his heart at this moment. On the contrary, he understood better than anyone what regret was.

It's like sitting in front of a tombstone and never finishing the wine.

It's a decadent, hedonistic lifestyle that spring breezes and autumn rains can't dispel.

It is an emptiness and nothingness that cannot be held onto by those beneath the soil.

He didn't want to give up without even trying, and then say again that he was 'powerless' or 'had done his best'.

You can fool outsiders and get comfort from others, but can you fool yourself?

He simply asked, "It's okay, even if it's the last trip, I'll accompany you. Besides, I have a feeling it will definitely be worth the trip."

Mu Xitong gave a pale smile. "Okay, I'll go with you."

Wei Tu gripped Mu Xitong's soft hand tightly, and at that moment Mu Xitong remembered something.

"By the way, take the little fox with you. She is a demon and has an instinctive sense of the terrain and smell of the Ten Thousand Demon Mountains. It will be much better than you searching like a headless fly."

Wei Tu thought for a moment and said, "Taking her along is fine... I'm not exactly a headless fly, the other party described quite a lot of information. He wrote that a hundred steps away from the Spirit Spring, there is a patch of red chrysanthemums in full bloom, which can be considered a hint. And red chrysanthemums generally grow in the south, so if we go into the depths of the Ten Thousand Demon Mountain, the probability of going south will be higher."

When do you want to leave?

"Let's set off today."

Mu Xitong was taken aback. "But... you're just leaving like this, and we don't even know when you'll be back. Don't you need to make some arrangements?"

Wei Tu shook his head, "The arrangements will be made, so you don't need to worry about these things. We're racing against time to help you now."

That afternoon.

Even though Wei Tu intentionally concealed it, many people still came to see him off.

Jiang Ying, Su Mi, and even Lin Ruoyin appeared in front of the teleportation stele at the top of the mountain, while Elders Yuan Wei and Xie Jin stood on both sides.

When Wei Tu appeared with Mu Xitong, who was holding a little fox, they all looked over.

Wei Tu thought for a moment, then spoke to the woman beside him who was lost in thought.

They all came to see you off.

Mu Xitong sighed softly, "Really... even though he's about to leave, he still makes me feel uneasy."

Mu Xitong stepped forward, looking at the two young girls and her fellow disciples whom she could address as senior sisters and brothers.

She opened her mouth, but it seemed all she could say was, "Why are you here for something so trivial..."

Yuan Wei said irritably, "Is this all there is to it? You've been keeping it from us. We were once fellow disciples, and now we're elders. Does that mean our relationship has become distant?"

Xie Jin said regretfully, "There's nothing we can do to help with this. We wish you a safe journey."

Lin Ruoyin, who was standing to the side, couldn't stand it anymore and said, "If you two men can't speak properly, then don't speak at all."

He forced the two men to leave and then came to Mu Xitong's side.

She looked at the woman in front of her whose complexion was not as good as usual, and whose makeup could not even cover it up.

“We may have argued before, or there may have been misunderstandings. But from the bottom of my heart, I have never forgotten that you are my junior sister. I know you are not a weak person, and you don’t need any comfort. But I sincerely hope that you can come back safely.”

Mu Xitong smiled and said, "Okay, I understand, Senior Sister."

It seemed like it had been a long time since she had heard the other person utter the words "senior sister," and Lin Ruoyin, who had been quite calm just moments before, suddenly found her eyes reddening.

She couldn't help but reach out and gently hug Mu Xitong. Deep in her memory, she was still that little girl who was always sleepy many years ago.

They didn't cry uncontrollably; the tears welling up in their eyes seemed to remain fixed there, or perhaps they just drifted away.

Mu Xitong said softly, "It's okay. Whether you come back or not is fate. Just live well."

Lin Ruoyin released Mu Xitong, hesitated for a moment, and then came to Wei Tu.

What are the probabilities?

Wei Tu thought for a moment and said, "There's always some possibility."

Lin Ruoyin nodded and said softly, "Take good care of her, and take good care of yourself too. You and she are both very important to the Yuanjian Sect."

Wei Tu wasn't in the mood for flirtatious talk, so he smiled and nodded, "Okay, thank you, Uncle Lin."

Lin Ruoyin hesitated, then stepped aside.

The time was given to the two young girls.

Although, to some extent, she could already be described as a beautiful young woman.

Su Mi and Jiang Ying arrived in front of Wei Tu together. They looked at Wei Tu with concern, but before they could speak, Wei Tu spoke first.

"I'm sorry, I made this somewhat selfish decision, and I hope you won't blame me. I don't know how long it will be before I can come back, but I can promise that I will definitely come back."

Su Mi grasped the boy's hand, shook her head, and whispered.

"Don't say that. Senior Sister Jiang and I have always supported your decisions. Just do it. Senior Sister and I will take care of the matters at Little Iris Peak until Uncle Lu comes out of seclusion."

"it is good."

Wei Tu lowered his head and kissed the girl's cheek, making her blush.

He looked at Jiang Ying on the other side.

Jiang Ying spoke very little this time, as always; in fact, her eyes said it all.

"Come back safely, I'll be waiting for you."

"it is good."

Wei Tu also kissed Jiang Ying.

At this point, romantic feelings are not a burden, but Wei Tu does not intend to continue.

He looked at Mu Xitong beside him and said, "Uncle Mu, let's go."

"it is good."

Mu Xitong's movements were actually a little unsteady as she held the little fox, but she seemed to be used to it.

As the two walked towards the teleportation stone tablet.

"Wait."

A sound came from behind.

It was clearly an unexpected sound.

When Wei Tu and Mu Xitong turned around at the same time, they saw a beautiful woman appearing step by step from behind.

Dressed in a white dress, she had fair skin as white as snow, and her temperament was even more beautiful and gorgeous, so beautiful that she seemed to be dripping with water.

"Dyeing new snow..."

Mu Xitong murmured softly.

It was indeed Ran Xinxue who arrived, and she was the woman who had always been at odds with her.

She walked up to the two of them with the same unpleasant smile as before.

"Are you coming to see me off too?"

Mu Xitong seemed to recall the past, and her tone became strange.

Ran Xinxue didn't mind. Her gaze drifted past Wei Tu, who was looking at the sky, and then landed on Mu Xitong.

"I heard you were going to die, so I came to check on you."

Those around them were taken aback when they heard this.

Even Lin Ruoyin couldn't help but exclaim, "Ran Xinxue! She's still your junior sister..."

"I know."

Ran Xinxue glanced calmly at Lin Ruoyin, then turned to Mu Xitong and said.

“I still think the days when we were constantly bickering were more interesting. If we suddenly reconciled because you were going to die, it would be a bit unreasonable and abrupt, don’t you think?”

Mu Xitong couldn't help but laugh, "That's true."
