Chapter 231 Tianlong 8 Part 45
Ah Zhu neither denied nor confirmed Wang Yuyan's guess, but with their tacit understanding, Wang Yuyan knew what Ah Zhu meant.
Duan Yu listened to this unfamiliar term - the Immortal Changchun Gong - with a bewildered look on his face, and his heart was filled with doubts: "The Immortal Changchun Gong? Is there really such a magical method in the world that can make people stay young and immortal?"
He widened his eyes and looked at Ah Zhu and Wang Yuyan in disbelief, expecting to get an answer from them.
However, facing Duan Yu's eager questioning, Ah Zhu and Wang Yuyan remained silent. Immortality? What a big tone! Even in the world of immortals, it is difficult for people to achieve immortality, not to mention that this is just a world of martial arts.
The so-called immortality kung fu is nothing more than living a few years longer than others. If there really is such a skill, I am afraid there would be countless old monsters in the martial arts world.
How could these young people have the chance to show off their power? Murong in the south and Qiao Feng in the north are just children in front of those old monsters.
At this time, Wang Yuyan already knew that the seemingly innocent girl in front of her was actually the famous Tianshan Tonglao, and also Azhu's uncle.
Under such circumstances, her previous idea of helping Boss Wu and others capture the girl disappeared in an instant.
After all, on one side is Ah Zhu, a friend who has known her since childhood and is as close as a sister, and on the other side is a stranger who she just met and had a conflict with. It is clear at a glance which is more important.
So, Wang Yuyan pursed her lips tightly and never mentioned again about helping Boss Wu and the others catch people.
The three chatted for a while, then took Tianshan Tonglao to the nearest town.
When they arrived in town, the sun was setting and it was mid-afternoon.
After some searching and comparison, the group finally booked three rooms.
Considering the personal safety of the Tianshan Tonglao, everyone decided to let Azhu live in the same room with the Tianshan Tonglao tonight.
But as soon as she stepped into the room, Tianshan Tonglao couldn't wait to grab Ah Zhu and said anxiously: "You haven't finished telling me the things you mentioned before!"
However, facing Tianshan Tonglao's questioning, Ah Zhu began to play dumb and responded calmly: "I am just a junior, and the master only accepted me as his disciple later. How much can I know about the master's affairs?"
Tianshan Tonglao was obviously not satisfied with this answer. She stared at Ah Zhu with a sharp gaze and said in a deep voice, "Humph, that's not what you said just now! Are you deliberately trying to fool me now?"
Ah Zhu sighed softly and slowly explained, "Uncle Master, you misunderstood. I didn't mean to hide anything. If you really want to know Master's current situation, why don't you come back with me to Xiaoyao Sect?
After all, several decades have passed, and I think it’s time for you two to catch up on the past.”
When saying this, Ah Zhu had no other special thoughts in her mind, but every time she thought of the intricate relationship between the three people in the play and the final sad ending, she couldn't help but feel emotional.
After all, she is now Wuyazi's disciple, and her master treats her well. Azhu still hopes that she can give them a good ending.
No matter how deep the feelings were, Ah Zhu felt that after not having any contact for decades, the feelings should have long since transformed into an obsession. The three of them were not young anymore, and although they were skilled in martial arts, this was, after all, a world of martial arts, not a world of immortals. Even in the world of immortals, not everyone could achieve immortality.
So you only have a few years left to live, so why bother about so many things?
"Uncle Master, you and my master are not young anymore. No one knows what will happen in the future. Do you plan to never meet them again in your life?"
Ah Zhu's words made Tianshan Tonglao hesitate. When she was practicing martial arts, she was deceived by Li Qiushui and became possessed. She would remain in the appearance of a little girl for the rest of her life.
The Child-Fairy of Tianshan felt that she was too ashamed to face Wuyazi in this state, but Azhu was sent by Wuyazi. Is he also worried about me, his senior sister?
The Child-Fairy of Tianshan didn't say anything else, and Ah Zhu didn't force it anymore. That night was very peaceful, so peaceful that Ah Zhu found it very strange.
On the next morning, the few of them had a simple breakfast in the inn and followed Ah Zhu towards the Xiaoyao Sect.
In the early morning, the breeze blows gently, bringing a hint of coolness, like the gentle caress of nature.
Several people rode on horses, and the sound of horse hooves echoed in this quiet forest. The trees on both sides of the road were tall and straight, and the golden leaves slowly fell in the air like dancing butterflies, adding a touch of poetry and romance to the entire forest.
Perhaps because they had a full night of adequate rest, everyone was in a good mental state.
Wang Yuyan sat upright on the horse, staring at Ah Zhu's figure galloping in front of her. Recalling the long conversation they had last night, she couldn't help but feel a complex emotion in her heart.
Ah Zhu has been a very opinionated person since she was young. No elder, whether it is the highly respected Uncle Wang or the skilled doctor Mei, seems to be able to influence her decision.
She has always been well-behaved, sensible, calm and steady. However, even Wang Yuyan had never expected that the seemingly weak Ah Zhu would have such a bold and amazing idea.
Compared with her cousin Murong Fu's unattainable and illusory ideals and ambitions, Ah Zhu's ideas are undoubtedly more pragmatic and mature.
Wang Yuyan also firmly believes that Ah Zhu's character and strength can realize her ambitions.
"Born in such a turbulent and unpredictable era, how can we be willing to spend our lives in mediocrity?"
Ah Zhu's clear and pleasant voice seemed to still echo in her ears. Wang Yuyan looked at the bright colors in her eyes that flashed with a determined light, and a string deep in her heart was deeply touched.
Finally, Wang Yuyan gently raised her hand and slowly placed it on Ah Zhu's hand.
At this moment, no more words are needed, the tacit understanding between each other is already understood.
Wang Yuyan only replied softly: "Okay!"
Just a simple word, but it contains endless determination and courage.
The two people clasped their hands and smiled at each other, and both of their smiles showed their longing for the future.
However, this peace and tranquility did not last long and was soon broken by an unexpected change.
Ah Zhu, who was walking in front, suddenly stopped. The horse, which had been moving continuously in the same place, seemed to have sensed something unusual.
The people following behind immediately caught the unusual atmosphere and became alert.
As expected, just as they stopped, a group of masked men in black quickly appeared from both sides of the road like ghosts. These people were agile and quick, and surrounded them in the blink of an eye.
Seeing this, Duan Yu felt that as the only man among the group, he should protect the people behind him, so he took the lead and took action.
Although Duan Yu's martial arts skills were not very strong, the power of the Six Meridians Divine Sword was quite strong. Coupled with the Light Footsteps, it was difficult for those men in black to get close to him for a while.
Wang Yuyan, who followed closely behind, was just as brave as any man. She waved the whip that she always carried with her and dealt with the enemy nimbly.
At the same time, Azhu was trying her best to protect the Tianshan Tonglao behind her. She used her martial arts, dodging left and right, and struggling to resist the fierce attacks from enemies from other directions.
However, in this intense battle, the Tianshan Child-Fairy accidentally discovered a surprising detail - Azhu actually used the Little Wuxiang Kung!
Tianshan Tonglao's eyes suddenly became extremely sharp and her pupils shrank rapidly.
She shouted angrily, "Are you also the one who belongs to that bitch Li Qiushui?"
Ah Zhu was shocked when she heard this and was about to explain, but it was too late.
While Azhu was fighting against someone, the Child-Fairy of Tianshan took advantage of the fact that she had recovered a little bit of her internal strength and without hesitation, she sent a life and death talisman towards Azhu through the air.
Ah Zhu only felt a sudden chill and cold air coming over her. Her whole body trembled involuntarily, and the movements of her hands paused briefly.
This flaw was seized by the killer who was watching closely and slashed at Ah Zhu with his knife.
Although the immortal Changchun skill practiced by Tianshan Tonglao is very powerful, it has a drawback. Every time she regains her youth, her power is completely lost. After practicing for one day, her power will be restored to the level of when she was 7 years old. On the second day, she will be restored to the level of when she was 8 years old. On the third day, she will be restored to the level of when she was 9 years old. Each day is one year.
The Child-Girl of Tianshan has always believed in herself. Even what Ah Zhu said that day, she only believed 80% of it. So the Child-Girl of Tianshan was also silently recovering her internal strength.
The martial arts that Ah Zhu used just now made the Child-Father of Tianshan even more determined in her determination.
Ah Zhu felt a sharp pain in her chest. It was not the pain of being chopped, but the pain of the sword hitting her body. Wearing the golden soft armor given by Wuyazi, Ah Zhu could not be chopped.
Ah Zhu was not afraid of the sudden life and death talisman from the Child-Fairy of Tianshan, but she felt a surge of anger from the bottom of her heart. She saved her with good intentions, but she ended up dying just because of a little Wuxiang Gong.
He refused to even listen to my explanation and killed me so cruelly.
Ah Zhu thought of Wuyazi's previous instructions and his concern for Tianshan Tonglao, and made a decision in her heart.
Since the Tianshan Child-Fairy doesn't believe in her, there is no need for her to make any more unnecessary explanations.
Ah Zhu gritted her teeth, and with a flash of her body, she left the side of the Child-Fairy of Tianshan as quickly as a ghost.
She was moving so fast that it was almost impossible to see her figure clearly.
In this way, the Tianshan Child-Fairy was left alone, enduring the fierce attacks that came from all directions like a tide.
On the other hand, Duan Yu and Wang Yuyan were so absorbed in other things that they didn't notice what the Child-Grandma of Tianshan had just done. When they found that the Child-Grandma of Tianshan was in danger, they rushed forward without hesitation, wanting to rescue her.
"Sister Ah Zhu, please come over and help us! We can't hold on any longer!"
While Duan Yu was struggling to resist the enemy's attack, he was anxiously shouting to Azhu in the distance.
Beads of sweat rolled down his forehead, but he did not dare to stop his hands, desperately blocking the enemy's fierce attacks wave after wave.
Ah Zhu saw that as soon as she left, Duan Yu stepped forward to take her place and bear the attacks from the assassins. She couldn't help but feel touched and guilty.
She couldn't bear to see Duan Yu get hurt for helping her, so she made a prompt decision and decided to quickly get rid of these tough killers in front of her first.
Ah Zhu was in a bad mood at the moment. She had no intention of getting entangled with these killers any longer. Since it was obvious that they were killers who came to take people's lives, why should she care whether the means they used were fair or not?
Thinking of this, Ah Zhu took out a packet of medicine powder from his arms without hesitation and sprinkled it towards the group of killers.
The powder spread in the air like flowers scattered by a fairy, instantly covering all the killers.
This sudden move caught the killers off guard. Before they could react, they were hit and fell to the ground one after another.
The effect of the drug took effect very quickly. In the blink of an eye, these originally aggressive killers lost their fighting ability and lay on the ground groaning in pain.
When Duan Yu, who was standing by, saw this scene, he couldn't help but widen his eyes with a look of astonishment on his face.
He opened his lips slightly, wanting to say something, but before he could finish his words, Wang Yuyan beside him reached out and gently patted his shoulder.
Wang Yuyan winked at him, signaling him to keep quiet.
In fact, the huge change in Ah Zhu's attitude towards the Tianshan Tonglao just now, initially protecting her with all her strength, but then ignoring her, all did not escape Wang Yuyan's keen observation.
She knew in her heart that there must be some unknown conflicts or disputes between Ah Zhu and the Child-Father of Tianshan.
Sure enough, Ah Zhu, who had been silent all the time, finally spoke!
She looked straight at Tianshan Tonglao with a look of confusion and anger. She asked with a trembling voice, "Uncle Master, you actually cast a life and death spell on me when I was fighting fiercely with the enemy. Don't tell me that you have completely disregarded the friendship between us?"
However, before Ah Zhu could finish her words, Wang Yuyan at the side could not help but let out a cry of surprise.
"The Talisman of Life and Death?"
You know, if it were the Wang Yuyan who used to live a life of luxury and seclusion, she probably wouldn't have any idea what this so-called life and death talisman was.
But just two days ago, she had spent some time with Boss Wu and others.
The mighty reputation of the Life and Death Talisman would frighten even those cave masters and island masters who did things as they pleased and without restraint, and would become silent as a mouse. They could only bow their heads and do as the Child-Fairy of Tianshan said.
But now, Ah Zhu was actually hit by such a highly poisonous hidden weapon, and the person who attacked her was actually the Child-Fairy of Tianshan!
This is really incredible and unbelievable!
So Wang Yuyan quickly took a step forward and questioned Tianshan Tonglao, "Senior, Ah Zhu clearly came to rescue you out of kindness, so why did you kill her so cruelly?"
