Creation of the Universe

Shen Yunli understood and immediately bowed to show his respect to the master.

Zhu Xiuyuan raised his gray eyebrows a few times, then he felt something was wrong.

"What did you call her just now?"

Shen Zhan answered truthfully: "She is my sister Shen Yunli, so I naturally call her Li'er."

Zhu Xiuyuan looked at Shen Yunli blankly again, wanting to confirm whether this was true or not, but ended up meeting Shen Yunli's pure and innocent eyes.

"Senior, I was about to tell you my brother's name, but you said you didn't want to gossip anymore, so I didn't tell you in time."

What Shen Yunli said was the truth, which made Zhu Xiuyuan unable to get angry. This was not something that someone deliberately concealed.

He was stunned for a moment, looked at Shen Zhan, and then looked at Shen Yunli a few times. The two of them did look alike, and he seemed to be having a very intense game in his heart.

After a while, he said with a sense of relief: "Forget it, forget it, Shen Yunli's talent is rare in the world. I fell in love with her at first sight. Moreover, this girl is kind-hearted and has no distractions. How can I miss such a good unpolished gem?

I accept you as my good disciple!"

Zhu Xiuyuan looked relieved.

Shen Yunli quickly shouted, "Master, please accept my disciple's greeting!"

Shen Zhan, Chu Qiu and others watched this scene with relief. Although the whole process was a bit tortuous, it finally had a result that satisfied everyone.

For Shen Zhan, although Shen Yunli's apprenticeship to Zhu Xiuyuan was beyond his expectation, wasn't this also a good thing?

Although Zhu Xiuyuan failed to reach the realm of Martial Saint, with his strategy, talent, and the courage and insight of being one of the seven great princes, he was more than qualified to be Shen Yunli's master, and such an opportunity was rare.

Even those descendants of famous and prestigious families in this world, no matter how powerful and wealthy they are, may not be able to find a martial arts master to be their teacher.

This will be of great benefit to Shen Yunli's growth, and Shen Zhan is happy to see it happen!

"My dear disciple, this is the gift from your master to you: the eternal root!"

Zhu Xiuyuan waved his sleeves lightly, and the thousand-year-old root of immortality appeared in Shen Yunli's palm. This treasure that made the world salivate looked ordinary, not much different from the roots of some other plants.

But when Shen Yunli touched it, she could clearly feel a power contained in it. This power felt very mysterious and could make a person's mood become extremely peaceful.

Zhu Xiuyuan said, "My dear disciple, it is yours. As for what you do with it, or whether you give it to some disgusting person, that has nothing to do with me."

There was something else in his words, and he was sarcastic towards Shen Zhan, but the latter had no intention of arguing with him now. With the help of the Eternal Root, his good brother Hu Meng would be saved.

Shen Yunli curved her beautiful moon-like eyes, said thank you, then walked towards Shen Zhan and handed over the Ten Thousand Years Longevity Root.

Seeing this scene, Zhu Xiu was so exhausted that he wanted to vomit blood, but he held it back.

Back then, he and Shen Zhan were both among the seven great princes in the court. In fact, apart from some political differences, and the fact that Shen Zhan was young and unruly, and full of vigor, and many of his behaviors were disliked by him, there was no deep hatred between the two.

Now he has accepted Shen Zhan's sister as his disciple, and the Ten Thousand Years Longevity Root is of no use to him, so there is nothing wrong with this result.

"Brother, Li'er misses you so much!"

Shen Yunli threw herself into Shen Zhan's broad arms and started acting coquettishly on the spot.

Chu Qiu smiled, took the Ten Thousand Years Longevity Root from Shen Zhan, and walked away with Meng Zhong and Zhao Tiange.

Shen Zhan asked Shen Yunli, "Li'er, are you doing well?"

"Well... it's pretty good. Although my father and the queen still often force me to do things I don't want to do, fortunately the prime minister always comes to my rescue! In addition, my friend Han Fei also takes good care of me. Ah! By the way, where is he?"

Shen Yunli was shocked and worried that Han Fei had fallen into the hands of those people from the Beiyi Sect.

"Don't worry, I'm fine!"

Han Fei arrived just at this time.

It wasn't that something unexpected happened along the way, but mainly because Shen Zhan, Chu Qiu and the others moved too fast and he couldn't keep up at all, so he was left behind.

Shen Zhan touched Shen Yunli's head lovingly and said gently, "You have grown up and become stronger. This is good."

"Brother has something very important to do now. I'll talk to you after I've dealt with it."

"Can I come along?"

Shen Yunli asked timidly.

She has been dependent on her brother Shen Zhan since she was young. In the past six months, the two have been separated for such a long time for the first time in their lives. Although Shen Yunli did not say it on the surface, she was actually having a hard time.

Now that she has finally found her brother, she just wants to stay with him forever. This dependence is a deep bond between the two siblings.

"it is good."

Shen Zhan smiled and nodded.

Walking into the forest, Chu Qiu and the other three were gathered in front of an open space. Meng Zhong took out a green jade disk from his arms, which was in the shape of a cicada lying on a bamboo joint.

In fact, this is a space spiritual weapon. Under Meng Zhong's control, Yu Bi placed the armor containing Hu Meng's soul on the open space.

Next came Chu Qiu, who took out the Nine-Aperture Linglong he brought back from the Chu family in the East China Sea and held it in front of him with both hands.

The Nine-Aperture Linglong is the shell of a magical turtle that lives in the East China Sea. Legend has it that it is fed by immortals and contains magical powers.

It can collect and lock up the wandering soul, which is the most critical step in bringing Hu Meng back to life. Although the soul can also attach itself to other spiritual things in the world, it may dissipate at any time.

If a person has no soul, even if the body is reborn, he will just be a walking corpse.

Chu Qiu slowly poured his spiritual power into it, and the latter gradually emitted a mysterious and soft light. After a while, the soul temporarily stored in the armor was slowly absorbed into the exquisite nine orifices.

Zhao Tiange said happily, "Great! This will ensure that Hu Meng's soul won't dissipate. Next, we need to spend time rebuilding his body!"

"Yes, but rebuilding the body is very different from placing the soul into the exquisite nine orifices. This will take a lot of time. I think we need to find a mountain or river with spiritual water to help him recover faster."

As Meng Zhong spoke, he was thinking about such a suitable place in his mind.

Zhao Tiange came up with a good idea and suggested, "In my opinion, it would be better to take him to my old nest, where he can slowly recover without being disturbed. It will take at most half a year, or at most two months, for him to recover naturally.

Of course, his consciousness will regain consciousness even faster, and then we can immediately ask him about what happened in the ancient ruins and find Ling Xiao's whereabouts."
