I guess my sister spent a lot of effort thinking about this "death" plan.

"Hey!"

The green snake blamed herself so much that she had no motivation to speak. She finished drinking the thick food left by her junior, stood up and walked out of the cave. She hid her body and bathed in the hot spring pool again to adjust her mood.

Because he was worried that the pool would become a hot spring again, Chu Wuzhi waited until the green snake finished soaking before going down to wash briefly.

The little white foxes thought it was another blessing from the Fox Goddess, so they bowed and saluted on the shore, and then waited on the shore to catch fish to eat.

Inside the cave,

Aunt Green Snake has put her dress back on. The satisfied blush on her face has disappeared, and she has returned to her usual state. She has wiped off the blood stains on her skirt to avoid being blamed by her sister when she returns.

However, the green snake held Chu Wuzhi's robe and refused to let him wear it, because she wanted to take a closer look at his strong body. When she saw him come back, she held him in her arms like a treasure.

Chu Wuji was very helpless and couldn't even complain about the Green Snake Aunt using the big white snake's body to hit him as a "greeting gift".

"Wu Ji, let me ask you another question."

"Ask, Auntie."

"Which one feels more comfortable, the body of merit or me?"

"..."

Chu Wuji really couldn't keep up with his aunt's train of thought. She just said that she was in such a complicated mood that she didn't want to talk, so she went to take a bath to adjust herself... Was the adjustment effect so good?

This is what I asked when I came back!

"I don't have a clear feeling. My condition wasn't very good last time. First, the carriage was attacked, and then I was chased all the way here before I could barely catch my breath. I can't remember it anymore, but my aunt should be better now... right?"

Chu Wu Ji didn't dare to be too "fair and neutral" because Aunt Green Snake was taking advantage of his weakness. If Chu Wu Ji said something that she didn't like, the impulsive Aunt Green Snake would directly make him suffer.

The green snake was satisfied with the answer and did not continue to worry about it. Seeing that it was almost time, she returned to business.

She had to go back to her sister, White Snake, otherwise she would die outside without a word if she stayed away for too long.

"Your mother is doing well now. She's rebuilding her body. It will take some time for her to come out. This can be considered a 'revealing', so it's not a complete deception."

"Mmmmmmm!"

Chu Wuzhi followed Qingshe's wishes and did whatever she said.

"Don't worry too much about the stolen body. It's not your fault, it's my sister's! If you get any news about the Scorpion Demon, call your female ghost master to deal with her. Don't worry if you can't find the Scorpion Demon. Wait until my sister comes out of seclusion before looking for her."

"......clear."

Chu Wuji was stunned for a moment. Just when he was about to complain that Aunt Qingshe and Ning Xianzhi were indeed not on good terms, he suddenly remembered something.

Female ghost master?

It seems that she once called a mysterious existence a "female ghost"?

"Aunt, I want to ask, why do you call my master a female ghost?"

Qing Snake realized that he seemed to have let something slip.

But she remembered that she didn't seem to agree to keep the secret. She just reached an agreement with Ning Xianzhi not to take Chu Wuzhi away rashly.

"Your current master is the female ghost who initially possessed your sister's body and lied about amnesia. To be more blunt, Ning Xianzhi is the 'Bai Sujin' who took you away from the capital."

"...Ah?" Chu Wuji blinked in confusion. He confirmed, "Isn't Master a good friend of Mother's?"

"My sister spent most of her life taking care of a bunch of ungrateful people in the White Snake Temple, and she's been raising you for the past decade or so. How did she get to know an immortal elder?"

"?"

Chu Wuji's mood became very complicated. Why did everyone act like they were joking and trying to trick him?

Just look at how Ning Xianzhi, the "new" bride, gave him a familiar feeling. It turned out that she had really been his mother!

So, Ning Xianzhi didn't know Bai Sujin before, let alone knew this "old friend's son". Did he only choose this disciple from their brief interactions?

Aunt Green Snake was afraid he might misunderstand, so she explained, "But she probably has no ill will towards you. She probably just feels a connection with you and has spotted your talent. It's fine for you to follow her in your cultivation."

Chu Wuji scratched his head, feeling extremely tired, but not too angry.

Ning Xianzhi was indeed very accommodating to him, it would not be an exaggeration to say that he was indulgent, and there was no need for him to do anything bad.

Next time I go back to the Immortal Peak and meet this master's mother, I'll just confront her and make things clear to her face to face. It's not a big deal.

If you don't say something, it will become the situation of this period, with misunderstandings leading to one thing after another. If a little accident happens, the misunderstandings will increase.

Chu Wuji now reviewed his experiences before and after leaving the capital, and it was still a little hard for him to imagine that in such a short period of time, he had gained so many godmothers and a stepmother + an aunt.

"Aunt, I'm suddenly starting to doubt whether the information I know right now is the truth. I feel like the 'truth' I hear changes every once in a while."

Aunt Green Snake felt guilty. She provided two versions of the "truth" and said awkwardly:

"...Ahem, then I'll bring my sister to meet you next time. You can't doubt the truth, right?"

Chapter 125: Express Delivery Delivered by Senior Jiujiu

Everything that needed to be explained had been said, and Green Snake planned to return to her sister White Snake before she had the thought of "maybe we could do it again".

Although I was in a panic when I came out, fearing that Chu Wuji would take the merit and luck back, but now I have confirmed that the result is good.

He even helped Chu Wuji negotiate matters concerning his master's sect, which was a great achievement!

"Okay, auntie is leaving. Wu Ji, you have to practice well, understand?" Auntie Qingshe looked at him fiercely with a serious face.

"I understand. I plan to cultivate my physical body to a certain limit first, and then I will seek guidance from that 'female ghost master'."

"I don't care how you practice, as long as your lifespan increases. After a month or two, if you find that physical training can't increase your lifespan, stop immediately and don't distract yourself any more. Your body is naturally comparable to those cultivators who have forged their bodies and established their foundations. I've also given you medicinal baths so many times, that's more than enough!"

The Green Snake’s request was very clear. No matter how strong he was, he just had to increase his lifespan first.

Many practitioners and mortals always hope that their children can lead their elders to great success, but the sisters White Snake and Green Snake have no such requirements. They just want Chu Wuji to be healthy and live a long life and stay with them for a long time.

After emphasizing the important matters, Qingshe's expression softened, but the sincerity and affection in his words remained unchanged. He said:

"Wu Ji, only if you extend your life span can your aunt love you longer... and by the way, you can also be filial to your sister and aunt for a longer time!"

To be honest, Chu Wuzhi was very moved when he heard the first half of the sentence.

Chu Wuji smiled helplessly and replied seriously:

"I know. I'm just staying in the area around Fire Country. I'm concentrating on cultivating the Dao since I haven't seen any results from my physical training. I've wanted to learn that cloud-riding spell for a long time, but traveling is too tiring now!"

The green snake nodded in satisfaction, and only now was he willing to release his arms from hugging the younger generation, and then he cautiously reminded:

"Next time you see me, don't be so stupid as to tell me about you and me. You have to do it secretly from now on!"

"..."

Chu Wuzhi's emotions were still brewing and spreading, and the green snake "whoosh" without saying anything and took him back to the outside of Lihuojing City.

As if she was worried that she couldn't stop talking, Aunt Green Snake didn't give Chu Wuzhi time to say goodbye. She let him go and flew away, disappearing without a trace.

As resolute as ever!

I'm afraid my aunt's thinking speed can't keep up with my own action speed...

Chu Wuji stood there in confusion and daze, and it took him a long time to come back to his senses.

"Not only did they not let me complain about 'doing it secretly', but they didn't even give me time to say 'see you next time'..."

He suddenly remembered the time when the carriage was attacked. After Aunt Green Snake seized control of the body of merit, she stood there in a daze for a few breaths, and then directly transformed into the real body of the white snake to attack.

I guess she was just too lazy to think about the conversation and just started fighting.

"I really didn't expect that the mother who lost her memory before was actually Master Ning Xianzhi, and she didn't even know Bai Sujin before."

Chu Wuji felt like he was being tricked.

He gave up worrying about it for the time being. After all, none of the "new" wives or "old" wives had any ill will towards him.

And who knows, maybe after a while, the “truth” version will be updated again?

It’s not too late to leave it to your future self to worry about.

*

Chu Wuzhi waited for a full half hour near the city gate before walking into the city and heading towards Prince Jing'an's Palace.

His thoughts switched from the trip to Jieshi to slay the dragon back to the present.

"The spell that helps speed up the journey is so useful! This journey took less than ten days!"

"I wonder what's happening with the Sky Fox Queen. Now that she's lost her target, she should be able to stay in the mortal world, right?"

Thinking of this, Chu Wuzhi quickened his pace a lot. Just as he passed by a winery, he stopped.

He had promised to bring her some wine, so he happened to bring a jar back with him.

The most important thing is that the owner of this winery is not familiar with him and will not ask him offensive questions like "How is your cultivation in the immortal world going?"

As soon as he walked in, Chu Wuji saw a familiar face drinking.

The Drunken Taoist priest sat beside the wine jar, crossed his legs carelessly, and drank from his gourd ladle.

The owner of the winery next door looked worried. He was afraid that the drunk woman couldn't pay, but he didn't want to ask her directly. He felt that the woman must be of extraordinary status.

Chu Wuji stepped forward to help with the bill and asked the boss to get another jar.

"Senior Jiujiu, why are you here?" Chu Wuji asked in surprise.

"If you can't find me in the future, first find the nearest fine winery. Fine wine will do. Then, silently recite my name in your heart, and I might appear to drink with you!"

Jiuwu Taoist shared a ladle of wine with Chu Wuji, asked him to taste it, and said:

"Remember, forget about the low-quality muddy wine, only good wine will do! The glutinous rice wine here is okay. I drank too much strong wine recently, so I need to switch to something lighter to improve my appetite~"

Chu Wuzhi smiled. This senior was truly an extraordinary person.

"How's that convoy?"

"I dropped them off at the gate of the capital and came here to drink. They should have left by now."

Taoist Jiuwu remembered something, threw the big box out of his sleeve, and let Chu Wuzhi take it away by himself.

The owner of the winery was originally feeling lucky that someone had paid the bill, but when he suddenly saw the man throwing the box, his eyes almost popped out of his head.

"Is this a trick? How can such a big box fit in one cuff?!"

But no one paid any attention to the winery owner's surprise. Chu Wuzhi and Jiuwu Taoist chatted for a while and then parted ways.

Chu Wuzhi carried a jar of wine in one hand and a large wooden box in the other, and hurried back to the old house with light steps.

The Drunken Taoist priest also slowly disappeared under the nose of the winery owner.

*

Chu Wuji walked into the old house with a nervous mood as if opening a blind box. Finally, he pushed open the door of the inner room and saw the familiar charming figure.

He breathed a sigh of relief, put down the things in his hands, and hung the ring-handled sword at his waist on the wall.

Chu Wuji looked like he had just returned from work. He stretched himself, then sneaked up to Tushan Yourong and asked anxiously:

"Goddess Sky Fox, do you have any special ideas?"

"The thought of drinking?" The fox girl held her cheek and looked at him with amusement.

Chu Wuji poured a bowl of wine to honor her and continued to ask:

"Any more?"

"Then I guess I just want to ask you, did you get anything out of your search for that White Tiger Mountain Lord?"

"......Well."

This was not what Chu Wuji wanted to ask. He was curious whether the "quiet" deaths of the Jieshi City Lord and the favorite concubine would have any impact on Tushan Yourong.

But it was not easy to say it out loud. Chu Wuji was afraid that if he said something too much, "I killed the Lord of Jieshi City", Tushan Yourong would think that "he indirectly helped me to complete my revenge", which would be equivalent to ending her obsession in disguise.

That's a hell of a joke...

"I didn't run into the White Tiger Mountain Monarch on this trip. I wandered around the forest for ages without seeing any sign of her. It felt like so many days were wasted. The precious time I spent with the Sky Fox Queen was lost for no reason. It's a huge loss!"

The fox lady flicked the young man's forehead in annoyance, put the comb in his hand, and said:

"Make up for all the hair loss you've lost these days! You need to spend a few more hours combing your hair every day!"
