Following the route pointed by Crow Crow and others, Tong Yan came to the outside of the palace's weapon refining room, raised his hand and knocked on the door, then waited aside, wondering if the people inside could hear him and come out.
While waiting, she took out the crescent-shaped necklace first, preparing to return it to Gu Yuqi later, as a way of thanking him for his kindness in sending the elixir.
After a while, the door opened, heat rushed out from the open door, and a tall figure stood at the door.
"What's the matter?"
His voice was still cold, and the scorching fire could not bring any warmth to his tone.
"I came to say thank you for taking me in and say goodbye. I'm awake now and it's time to leave."
Gu Yuqi glanced at her lightly and responded expressionlessly, "Yeah."
Tong Yan then passed his hand forward and spread it out, revealing the necklace.
"I gave it back to you. Originally, Senior Xun gave it to me and I should keep it myself. But I received a pill from you as a favor and I don't have any use for it, so I'll return it to you now as a favor."
Tong Yan had planned to return the things early in the morning, but he had to say it in a nice way.
Gu Yuqi's eyes fell on the Broken Moon in his hand for a moment, and his brows furrowed slightly.
He said in a deep voice: "No need to pay it back."
As he said that, he turned around and entered the house. Tong Yan subconsciously followed a few steps and almost bumped into the closing door when he reached the door.
She hurriedly took a step back, and Gu Yuqi stopped closing the door in time.
"Is there anything else?"
"Do you really don't want it? I can only pay it back this time. If I miss it, this village will not have this store." Tong Yan looked at him and said quickly.
He didn't want to repeat the same thing a second time.
Gu Yuqi didn't even look at her. He used his hand to close the door, cutting off her sight.
Tong Yan, who was locked out, pursed her lips. Wouldn't she just confirm it again with him? Wouldn't it be annoying?
As for locking people out without saying a word?
Putting away her things, she walked out of the palace in a depressed manner, thinking that it would be better to have less contact with such cold people in the future.
No matter how nice and sweet the settings in online novels are, they are still one-sided. If you really meet such a person in reality, it may be very tiring to get along with them.
Coming out of the palace, the sky above was dark and moonless, with only a few stars hanging sparsely in the night.
She had not been in the palace very long, so it was only that night.
Yu Jian hurriedly returned to the inn. At this time, Yunlu was still helping in the hospital, so the lights in the room had not been lit yet.
Tong Yan asked for hot water before going upstairs, then returned to the room and sat down to wait.
After getting out of the water, I spent some time washing up, then sat down on the bed with my legs crossed, ready to inspect the meridians in my body.
The most fundamental difference between cultivating Taoism and cultivating demons lies in the path the exercises take in the meridians.
Generally, monks will not change easily after fixing a cultivation path. Demon and Tao operate in exactly the opposite way, so when the spiritual power or demonic energy in the body suddenly turns around, different forces collide with each other, which will naturally cause damage to the body and meridians.
great harm.
The first is pain, like fine needles pricking my whole body over and over again.
What follows is a power riot caused by retrograde motion. If it is not guided in time, it is equivalent to wandering on the edge of going crazy.
If you leave it alone for a long time, or fail to solve the problem, the final result will be severed meridians.
But after Tong Yan looked inside, he found that his situation was not as bad as expected.
Except for the stinging pain during the two reversals, there were no unnecessary sequelae. The first time it was okay to say that I actively caused the evil energy to circulate.
But the second time the spiritual power came back, she fainted and it was impossible to guide her.
I'm okay now. Is it because of external forces or the body's self-repair?
You name it.
However, after this battle, Tong Yan seemed to have discovered a physical benefit.
She can convert both demonic energy and spiritual energy freely. She will not be like others who cannot change back after the conversion, or become obsessed or something like that.
Although she cannot use them at the same time, to a certain extent, she can barely be regarded as a dual practitioner of magic.
After finishing his meditation, Tong Yan opened his eyes and was about to lie down straight to sleep when he suddenly noticed a familiar smell outside.
She suddenly stood up, jumped out of bed immediately, quickly picked up her coat with one hand, opened the window and flew out. She was so anxious that she even forgot to tidy up her disheveled hair.
He almost climbed up to the roof and looked at the red figure standing in front of the wind.
She whispered, "Master."
Shang Xun retracted his gaze from the lights of Wanjia and turned slightly to look sideways.
Then he saw Tong Yan's disheveled appearance and raised his eyebrows in disgust.
“It’s on fire or flooded, and I don’t know how to put on my clothes before coming out.”
Hearing this, Tong Yan hurriedly checked her clothes. She had put them on too hastily and some places were not zipped properly.
She straightened her clothes and walked to Shang Xun's side and asked, "Master, why are you here suddenly?"
"Don't you want to come as a teacher?"
Tong Yan shook his head, "No."
Shang Xun muttered, "That's because I want to be my teacher."
Tong Yan had a question mark on his face, it didn't seem right to say so.
Seeing that his young disciple seemed confused, Shang Xun's lips curved slightly, and the dull mood he had felt for the past few months disappeared instantly.
Her hair hanging down her back was blown to the front by the night wind. Shang Xun subconsciously helped her push it back. After doing it, he felt that there was something wrong with this action.
The hand that was still holding her hair paused, and when she saw Tong Yan's unconscious look, she took back her hand as if nothing had happened.
Shang Xun asked as usual, "How have you been practicing here recently?"
"It should be okay to help the hospital take care of the patients and have a fight on the way." Tong Yan replied after thinking about it.
"By the way, Master, how did you find yourself here? The transmission I sent didn't seem to say where you are."
Hearing this, Shang Xun casually glanced at her wrist and said rather enigmatically, "A teacher has his own way."
"What can I do?"
However, the people next to me looked into the distance and remained silent.
"If you can't tell me, forget it, I don't really want to know." Tong Yan curled his lips insincerely.
After she finished speaking, the roof became quiet for a moment, and you could almost hear the cool breeze blowing by.
After a while, Shang Xun's voice sounded from the wind.
"Since you're hurt, why don't you tell me."
Tong Yan was stunned for a moment, and then thought about which injury he was referring to, the soul injury he suffered in the secret realm, or the new injury from being beaten today.
Hearing no response, Shang Xun frowned, turned his head and looked over, and uttered two words that he didn't know whether to curse or hate.
"stupid."
Tong Yan, who didn't know why he was scolded, looked up at him slightly in confusion.
"You don't even know how to complain?"
Ah? Ah??
"Master...here, I'm an adult, so it's not appropriate to file a complaint or anything like that."
Shang Xun turned around and passed with a knife. Others were afraid that the backstage was not big enough and there was no place to complain, but she felt that she was too old to complain.
"Go back to your room."
Disciples from other families would seek help from their master whenever something happened, but his disciples seemed to be afraid that he would know about it.
He needs to come and inquire in person.
Which room to go back to, it was naturally Tong Yan's room. She obediently led the way, carefully inviting people into the room along the way.
But along the way, I still couldn't quite figure out why the master was suddenly in a bad mood.
