The injuries on Lu Yiguang and the other two were not fatal. After the medical staff treated them, the group left them in the backyard to recuperate.

What suffered even more was the lingering stench emanating from the three of them and Mu Yunjian.

Fortunately, the healer we invited was very reliable. He said that soaking several kinds of fragrant herbs in warm water for twelve hours would suppress body odor.

Fortunately, Wen Fuyue had one of the rare medicinal herbs in the prescription, and the others could be purchased at the Spirit Medicine Hall.

Yun Yici was worried that the city was full of cultivators attacked by the demon weasels, and that the other auxiliary medicines were in short supply, so she immediately went out to gather all the spiritual herbs from the prescription.

On the way back, Yun Yici didn't forget to pass on a message to Ji Heng, saying that Lu Yiguang and the other two were guests at their place.

Within half an hour, a faint fragrance wafted from the Xie family mansion, masking the nauseating stench.

While the four were soaking in the medicinal bath, everyone finally had the opportunity to ask about what had happened in the secret realm.

Rong Xuan explained the whole story.

It wasn't that they didn't regret losing that Nine-Turn Nascent Soul Fruit; in fact, they wanted to pursue it, but Yun Yici stopped them.

Xie Qianjue and the others thought about it: even if they managed to snatch the Nine-Turn Nascent Soul Fruit, so what?

Don’t worry about scarcity but inequality.

Instead, it would be better to give up the Nine Revolutions and grab the other eight Nascent Soul Fruits that are still on the tree.

Xie Qianjue volunteered, "Junior Sister Yun contributed the most this time, so the Eighth-Rank Nascent Soul Fruit should belong to Junior Sister Yun."

As the senior brother, Rong Xuan saw that the best one had been obtained by his own family, so he said, "Without news of Junior Brother Xie, we would not have known about this opportunity of the Nascent Soul Fruit. The Seven-Turn Nascent Soul Fruit shall belong to Junior Brother Xie Qianjue."

This opportunity was earned through the hard work of these younger generations, so Wen Fuyue naturally wouldn't try to seize it. How to divide it among them is a matter between them.

However, Emperor Zhao and Li Ji were demon cultivators, and they realized that Shen Huaichuan's cultivation was higher than Wen Fuyue's, so it would be useless for him to form a Nascent Soul Fruit.

The emperor was quite pleased with Xie Qianjue's sensible manner.

Yun Yici listened to their discussion, chuckled twice, and took out a golden fruit from her storage bag: "Look."

The light emanating from the birth of the Nine-Turned Infant Fruit has been completely absorbed into its flesh. When it is taken out, the aroma of ripe fruit fills the entire room, intoxicating the senses.

Xie Qianjue and the others were both surprised and delighted: "Junior Sister, what's going on?"

“We clearly saw that the fruit was running very fast, as if it had legs.”

They thought they had no chance of getting the Nine-Turn Nascent Soul Fruit, but it would be good if they could get eight after all their hard work. But things took an unexpected turn.

Yun Yici said, "It's a secret."

Xie Qianjue and Xie Shiqing were unaware of the matter of Zhulong, and she could not widely publicize Zhulong's existence until Zhujian had the ability to protect himself.

In fact, when she unfurled the scroll and laid out the illusion, Zhujian was already hiding in the tree.

Once the Nine-Turn Nascent Soul Fruit ripened, she picked it and ran away with it, drawing away a large number of powerful cultivators.

Because Zhujian's current form is as thin as a little finger, it is hidden among the leaves on the fruit and no one can find it.

Later, hiding the Nine-Turn Infant Fruit became even simpler.

—Zhu Jian has a space belonging to Zhulong, so she directly hides the fruit in her space.

Before leaving the secret realm, find Yun Yici and meet up to leave the secret realm together.

Seeing that Yun Yici was unwilling to elaborate, the others wisely stopped asking. In any case, the benefits they had gained were real.

Since the Nine-Turn Nascent Soul Fruit is with Yun Yici, the remaining Nascent Soul Fruits will have to be redistributed.

However, no one objected to the ownership of the Nascent Soul Fruit.

Yun Yici contributed the most to this trip and deserves to receive the Nine-Turn Nascent Soul Fruit.

Then Xie Qianjue informed them of the news and led the way, and they obtained the Eighth-Stage Nascent Soul Fruit.

Then there was Rong Xuan, who helped cover Yun Yici and divert the attention of other cultivators at the crucial moment of picking the fruit, damaging many puppets in the process.

Further down is Mu Yunjian, who sacrificed himself to subdue the demon weasel, cough.

As for Ning Tinglan and Xie Shiqing, they also contributed, but both of them felt that apart from hunting wind beasts and setting up ambushes, they were practically just mascots.

After some back and forth, Ning Tinglan took the fifth-level Nascent Soul Fruit, while Xie Shiqing received the fourth-level Nascent Soul Fruit.

With three fruits remaining, the five remained silent, none of them daring to speak about who should own the three Nascent Soul Fruits.

They had no blood feud with Lu Yiguang and the other two, nor any hatred of killing their fathers or stealing their wives. Instead, keeping the three Nascent Soul Fruits would only make their consciences bother them.

The three members of the Wuji Dao Sect were currently soaking in medicinal soup in their room, completely unaware of what was happening outside.

Even if you were to issue a challenge to Lu Yiguang and the others right now, they wouldn't even step out of the medicine barrel.

The healer said we had to soak for the full twelve hours, so who would dare risk smelling bad later and wandering around?

Xie Qianjue coughed lightly and said, "I think we might be thinking the same thing. What do you think, Junior Sister Yun?"

Yun Yici nodded and said, "I have no objection."

Lu Yiguang and his two companions did the hardest and most dangerous work, hoping to earn a fair chance to enter the inner cabinet.

But she'll definitely take this opportunity to fleece the Wuji Dao Sect, so let's focus on the issue, not the person, and keep things separate.

Besides, even if the Nascent Soul Fruit is now rumored to have disappeared, they will take it sooner or later, and the truth will eventually come out.

It's too much for one group to steal the limelight; it would be better to bring Lu Yiguang and the others on board as well.

When Lu Yiguang and the other two had finished soaking for twelve hours, changed their clothes, and came to thank Wen Fuyue and say goodbye, they saw Yun Yici waiting there.

Yun Yici handed the storage bag containing the Nascent Soul Fruit to Lu Yiguang: "This is your reward."

Lu Yiguang was stunned for a moment, then quickly scanned the storage bag with her spiritual sense. She asked absentmindedly, "What does this mean?"

"Could it be that what I seek is unattainable?"

Yun Yici: You truly possess the innate holy body of a sect leader.

Lu Yiguang was truly panicked. She planned to use Yun Yici as a connection to try and curry favor with the Lingwei Sect.

Now that Yun Yici is giving them the Nascent Soul Fruit, doesn't that mean their sect has to continue to secretly and eagerly watch other sects freely enter and leave the outer pavilion?

Yun Yici sighed and said, "I already said that I have no way to contact the seniors of Lingwei Sect. If they reappear in the world in the future, I may be able to give it a try."

Lu Yiguang's straight shoulders slumped down. After accepting reality, she silently accepted the storage bag and sincerely said to Yun Yici, "Thank you, Fellow Daoist Yun."

"Thank you for setting aside the prejudices between our sects. We were too short-sighted before."

She had made it clear beforehand that Yun Yici could have swallowed all three Nascent Soul Fruits herself.

System: "Lu Yiguang's favorability +20, total favorability 60, unlock one lottery chance, luck value +2, host's total luck value 74."

The system couldn't wait to sing praises to Yun Yici, as the Nascent Soul Fruit was a wonderful gift that instantly boosted Lu Yiguang's favorability to 60.

Moreover, the other party is the future leader of the Wuji Dao Sect, which is practically equivalent to forging a friendship with the leader of a top-tier sect in advance.
