It was probably because of Huanmi's slap before she left that it wasn't long after she left that Huali started to show signs of waking up.
In the evening, red clouds filled the old place, reflecting the gray "sky" in the west. Huali slowly opened her eyes on the roof.
"Seventh Junior Sister, are you okay, are you... injured?" This was Hua Li's first words after waking up, and her breath was still a little weak.
"I'm fine. Senior Huanmi saved us and we're safe now."
Hua Li glanced at Jiu Ze in confusion, then rolled her eyes, as if she was looking for something.
"She's not here, there are some things that need to be dealt with immediately," Jiuze said.
Hua Li's whole body was weak and in severe pain. It was a bit difficult to nod, so she blinked and said, "Thank you... for me... senior."
"Sister, don't worry."
Unexpectedly, Hua Li's eyes turned red as soon as she finished speaking.
"I'm useless. Junior Brother Six was contracted by the devil and became a... spirit... pet."
The last two words Huali said were particularly difficult.
Every word in this sentence is very simple, but Jiuze took a long time to accept the meaning it conveyed.
"Spiritual pets... aren't they only for spiritual beasts and monsters? The sixth senior brother is a human cultivator, how can he make a contract?"
The tears in Huali's eyes flowed from the corners of her eyes into her hair, and she slowly explained: "I thought so before, but only now do I understand that the concept that all spiritual pets are spiritual beasts is a view of superiority formed by the human race from its own standpoint.
In fact, this contract law should apply to all living beings. Buddhism says that all are created equal, which presumably refers to all things in the world."
"As long as the master's cultivation level is higher than that of the slave, he can sign a spiritual pet contract."
Jiuze's heart twisted into a ball after listening to Huali's words.
Sixth Senior Brother is a straightforward and straightforward man, how could he end up as a spiritual pet?
"Is there any way to solve it?" Jiuze asked.
Hua Li shook her head, "I don't know either. What I just said are all my speculations. Xiaoqi, we need to go back to the sect as soon as possible to investigate."
Jiuze nodded, "I will send the message back immediately, but senior sister, your injury is too serious now. You need to rest first and recover for a few days to avoid further mishaps on the road."
Hua Li wanted to go back to the sect immediately to find a way to save Fu Qi, but she also knew that she was a complete drag now, so she pressed her words.
"Xiao Qi, thank you for your hard work."
"What are you talking about," Jiuze said, "Senior sister, you know more about elixirs than I do. What do you need for this injury? Let me see if there is anything here."
"Are you free to use the things here?" Hua Li asked carefully.
Jiuze nodded, "Okay, senior sister, just feel at ease."
Hua Li didn't ask any more questions and just mentioned a few elixirs. Jiuze took the illustrated book of Luoxia Garden that Huanmi had given him earlier and found out that there were quite a lot of these elixirs here, so he immediately went to pick them back.
He then told Third Senior Sister about the situation here and asked her to investigate Fu Tian in the sect and the solution to the spiritual pet contract.
"Xiaoqi, Liu was contracted? This is no joke!" Rong Miao's reply quickly reached him.
Jiu Ze asked Hua Li to tell Rong Miao what happened in person.
Since Jiuze came to the succession stage and decided on her title, Huanmi opened up her communication rights. Now she can freely communicate with the outside world, so it is very convenient for her to communicate with Rong Miao at this time.
Rong Miao was silent for a long time after Hua Li finished speaking.
When he spoke again, he didn't comment at all, but seriously told Hua Li: "Xiao Wu, take good care of yourself and leave the rest to us. Xiao Qi, take good care of Xiao Wu. I will go back and report back to Fourth Master Uncle.
You don’t have to be in a hurry to come back. If anything unexpected happens, remember to contact us as soon as possible.”
Perhaps because she received support and comfort from her classmates, Hua Li's mood became much calmer.
Jiuze refined those elixirs into a spirit liquid and let Hua Li take it. Although the effect was not as good as the elixirs refined by medical practitioners, because the medicinal materials were suitable for the symptoms, they were also quite effective.
