My best friend asked me if I was still doing system tasks.

"Why is it so noisy outside all of a sudden? You sit down first, I'll go check it out."

Ruan Chayan stood up and walked out through the formation.

Luo Hanying said "Hey," and said, "Wait for me, I'm fine now, I'll go with you."

She grabbed the Qiankun bag placed on the bedside table, took out her robe, and started chanting mantras and hand seals as she walked, putting on the robe as she went.

Ruan Chayan walked onto the deck, with Luo Hanying following behind her. She scratched her head with a jade comb, then took out a hairband and a gold hairpin, and used magic to decorate her hair.

Ruan Chayan looked at Luo Hanying standing beside her, casually tidied her sideburns, touched the jade comb in her hair, and said, "It looks like Ji Daoyun and the others have come out."

Luo Hanying's divine sense landed on the ground, and she looked at the blood-covered cultivator in shock, asking, "Junior Uncle and the others only just came out? It's been a month since they came out?"

Ruan Chayan nodded and said, "Yes."

We were the first group of cultivators to emerge from the secret realm, and no cultivator has emerged since.

A month has passed, and I can't think of anyone else besides Ji Daoyun and his group who could have pulled off such a massive operation.

The exit of the Guangxu Secret Realm is now bustling with activity. Groups of cultivators, covered in blood, have fallen out, some unconscious, some in a state of high excitement, and some weeping with joy.

Each family adopted their own cultivator based on their disciple's robes and took them back for treatment. Even rogue cultivators had people from various sects spontaneously organized to help take care of them.

The disciples of the Shiren Sect were anxiously waiting at the exit of the secret realm, like ants on a hot pan, wishing they could crawl into the secret realm to see what was going on inside.

"Those clothes make them look like disciples of Baiyuzhai, right?"

Luo Hanying asked in confusion, "Why didn't I see any of the monks from Beiwen Temple?"

"Oh! Oh dear! I forgot to tell you."

Ruan Chayan then told Luo Hanying that the empty vision of Beiwen Temple had been sent to Shiren Sect by the teleportation talisman. Since no one from Beiwen Temple remained in the Guangxu Secret Realm, they naturally left.

Suddenly, the disciples of the Shiren Sect at the exit of the Guangxu Secret Realm became noisy. Ruan Chayan and Luo Hanying did not want to go down and cause trouble, so they watched from the spirit boat as three more cultivators fell out one after another. Judging from their appearance, they were Lu Xizhou, Lin Zhuzui and Ji Daoyun.

The disciples recognized the faces of the first two who emerged and exclaimed in delight, "It's them! It's them!"

Chen Meiru and Qiao Yuwen examined Lu Xizhou's injuries separately.

Lu Xizhou's left arm is missing and is bleeding profusely;

Lin Zhuzui's face was ashen, and he gripped a broken sword tightly in his hand.

Following closely behind them, Ji Daoyun staggered, using his longbow to support his body, barely managing to stand: "Do you have any Xuan Sui Zhi? All three of us have been poisoned."

Do you have Xuan Sui Zhi? Do you have any?

Upon receiving a negative answer, Chen Meiru was horrified and hurriedly said, "Mu Hua! Go up and ask if anyone has any Xuan Sui Zhi!"

Xu Qingren, a disciple of Xinglin Peak who was helping Ji Daoyun up, asked, "Junior Uncle, do you need any pills?"

Ji Daoyun shook his head: "We'll talk about it later. Apart from the poison, my injuries are serious but easy to treat."

After helping Lu Xizhou stop the bleeding, Chen Meiru asked, "How did Lu Xizhou lose his arm? Did he manage to keep his own arm?"

Ji Daoyun shook his head: "No, it was cut off by the demon beast and eaten by it."

"Junior Brother Lin's natal sword is broken! This is his natal sword!"

Lou Zhixi was an inner disciple of Renming Peak, and belonged to the disciples under Lin Zhuzui's supervision. Therefore, he knew that the sword in Lin Zhuzui's hand was his natal sword.

"Oh dear! His injury is going to be difficult to treat!" Qiao Yuwen asked hurriedly. "Where's Tao Fuzhen? Go and ask her if she still has any Soul-Nourishing Grass!"

Chen Meiru wiped the cold sweat from her forehead: "Take the three of them up first."

"Ji Wei, hurry and find Elder Li of Xunqi Peak. Tell the disciples of Xunqi Peak and Zemu Workshop to prepare materials immediately. Lu Xizhou needs a prosthetic limb, and Lin Zhuzui's natal sword also needs to be repaired."

"Yes!"

Since Ji Daoyun, no cultivator has emerged from the Guangxu Secret Realm.

Suddenly, the communication jade slips in Ruan Chayan and Luo Hanying's hands lit up simultaneously, and Wang Ruoxuan, the senior sister of Xinglin Peak, spoke anxiously: "Disciples who are currently on the 'Breaking Wind' spirit boat outside the Guangxu Secret Realm, if you have any Xuan Sui Zhi, please deliver them to the medicine room immediately!"

Three disciples now require the Xuan Sui Zhi (Mystic Marrow Mushroom) to save their lives; the reward will be paid by Xinglin Peak using sect contribution points!

The broadcast was repeated three times in a row, which shows how urgent the situation was.

"Three disciples? Could it be Junior Uncle and the others?"

Luo Hanying touched her forehead and pondered, "Xinglin Peak doesn't even have Xuan Sui Zhi, so how could we disciples possibly have any?"

Ruan Chayan looked at the Jinhua cat lying on the futon sunbathing: "He should have one."

Luo Hanying followed Ruan Chayan's gaze and saw the contented Jinhua Cat: "I believe him, but what should we do?"

"Let's try anything, even if it's a hopeless situation, and see if we can communicate with them."

Ruan Chayan took three steps at a time to walk up to Jinhua Cat, picked it up and held it at eye level with herself.

The cat kicked Ruan Chayan's hand with its hind legs and meowed accusingly.

Ruan Chayan stared intently into Jinhua Cat's eyes: "Peanut, Peanut, calm down, Peanut, do you remember Xuan Sui Zhi?"

Do you have Xuan Sui Zhi?

You have a space, right? Space—Mystic Essence Mushroom—"

Ruan Chayan was worried that Jinhua Cat's little brain couldn't process too much information, so she repeated these words over and over again.

The Jinhua cat struggled at first, but later it tilted its head to the side and stopped moving, its limp body stretched out for a long time.

Luo Hanying hesitated before speaking, "Will this work? He doesn't seem to understand."

Jinhua Cat suddenly started struggling wildly, and Ruan Chayan, worried about hurting him, dared not exert any more force.

"There's nothing we can do. Perhaps this is the calamity that Ji Daoyun and the others will face."

Ruan Chayan sighed helplessly, "It's not that we're abandoning them to their fate, it's just that there was really no chance of saving them."

{Chi, chi, chi. }

Suddenly, a faint child's voice came from Ruan Chayan's mind. As if she had sensed something, she looked up at the Golden Flower Cat and saw the Golden Flower Cat impatiently swishing its tail and circling around a pile of spiritual herbs that had appeared on the ground.

Ruan Chayan and Luo Hanying exchanged a glance, both overjoyed.

Luo Hanying hurriedly stepped forward to select the Xuan Sui Zhi (a type of mushroom), and Ruan Chayan happily hugged the Jinhua cat and lifted it high: "Good baby! Good baby! Peanut, you are so amazing! You are so smart!"

The cat lashed its tail at Ruan Chayan's arm, broke free from her embrace, jumped to the ground, and ran to a corner to lick its ruffled fur.

Ruan Chayan didn't mind. She bent down and asked Luo Hanying, "How is it? How many Xuan Sui Zhi mushrooms are there?"

Luo Hanying carefully put away the Xuan Sui Zhi and said, "Four plants, you should put these spiritual herbs away quickly. I don't know what the situation is at the medicine room. Let's send the Xuan Sui Zhi there first."

"You go ahead, I won't go. I'm worried about leaving Peanut here alone. It's too naughty. The other day it kept trying to run away from the spirit boat."

Ruan Chayan instructed, "Remember to ask them how much they need before giving it to them. Such spiritual medicine can only be found in the Demon Realm, and it's priceless in critical moments. It will be useful for us to keep it on hand."

Luo Hanying nodded and said, "I understand, don't worry."
