Several people were entangled in the matter of these two herbs, and Gu Liu Ma spoke up first: "Time is limited, and my elixir can only guarantee her survival for seven days. Since you want to save this girl, you must find these two herbs. The Thousand-Year Ganoderma is relatively easy to find, but as for the Gentian..."
Qingtian felt a sinking feeling in his heart after hearing this: "If that's the case, then there's no other way. We can only venture into the Underground City again, kill the Black Dragon, and retrieve the Snake Gallbladder."
"Killing a dragon to obtain its gallbladder is not easy, especially the Black Dragon Saint Lord!" Lian Cheng Xue said anxiously. "Just dealing with it alone is one thing; I heard it has four generals under its command. We already experienced that once."
"Then we must go!" Li Yunyang's brows were tightly furrowed as he clenched his fists. He looked at Xiang Xueer lying on the bed; even if it meant risking his life, he did not want to see her die after seven days.
Gu Liu Ma stared at the three men in the room and saw their determination. He stepped forward voluntarily: "Since we are going to kill the Black Dragon Saint Lord, take me along. This way, our chances of winning will increase significantly!"
"Really? That's great!" Lan Ran Qingtian did not expect Gu Liu Ma, who was the second among the Saint Ten, would offer to help. This was a pleasant surprise for them. With this senior joining them, they indeed had a chance to kill the Black Dragon Saint Lord.
Thus, their battle line quickly unified. Li Yunyang, Lan Ran Qingtian, Lian Cheng Xue, and Gu Liu Ma—two of whom were from the Saint Ten—made it clear that this battle was worth watching.
Platypus noticed something was off and jumped up angrily: "What do you mean? Why am I not included? Do you look down on me?"
Qingtian pressed down on its head and looked at it seriously: "Duck, considering your brave performance last time in protecting Xiang Xueer, we have a more important task for you this time."
"Ah? Really?" Platypus smiled brightly, not expecting to be valued so much today. It widened its eyes and quickly asked: "What exactly is the task?"
"Thousand-Year Ganoderma!" Qingtian said. "We will split into two teams. You will go with Ling Zhu to Bai Ling Mountain to search for the spirit mushroom from years ago. So this mission is also very important. Do you understand?"
"What?" Ling Zhu immediately became anxious upon hearing this: "Hey, what kind of joke is this? You want me to go with this Duck? I can't do anything!"
"Then you can stay at the inn and take care of Dead Girl!" Li Yunyang said just as Lan Ran Qingtian and Lian Cheng Xue shouted in unison: "No way!"
Li Yunyang looked at the two in surprise; what was going on? Qingtian quickly cleared his throat: "Now is not the time for tolerance. As for Shirley's situation here, I have other plans, so Ling Zhu will go with Duck!"
Joking aside, it was too dangerous for the unidentified Ling Zhu to be left alone with Shirley. The best solution was to have her follow Platypus, which would also allow for monitoring her every move.
"Tch!" Ling Zhu changed her usual demeanor, no longer the sticky style she typically had. She crossed her arms in frustration, looking at Xiang Xueer lying on the bed. These guys were indeed starting to suspect my identity.
Everything had been arranged. Li Yunyang picked up the Azure Dragon Sword from his back and turned to walk towards the door. Lian Cheng Xue, seeing him about to leave, quickly asked, "Brother Li, where are you going?"
"There's still three days until the Underground City gate opens. I need to practice hard!" After saying this, he turned and left the room. He was about to face a strong enemy with no way out; even though time was short, any improvement would help!
Lian Cheng Xue watched his departing figure, clenching his fists tightly. If it weren't for his own incompetence, Xiang Xueer wouldn't have been injured while trying to save him. He grabbed the Black Iron Sword from the table and hurried after him. "Brother Li, wait for me! I'll go with you!"
Platypus stroked its chin and then turned to smile at Ling Zhu. "Ling Zhu, why don't we go practice together?"
"I don't want to!" Ling Zhu shot it a disdainful glare and turned to leave the inn. "The situation is becoming increasingly unpredictable; it seems I should report to the master sooner rather than later!"
The waterfall cascaded down with a roar, revealing a smooth black stone below. When Lian Cheng Xue found Li Yunyang, he was already sitting cross-legged on that stone.
With some distracting thoughts in his mind, Li Yunyang was working hard to eliminate them. His master had once told him that to enhance his abilities, he needed to calm every cell in his brain and body.
Looking at Li Yunyang beneath the waterfall, Lian Cheng Xue was momentarily confused about what he was doing. Suddenly, Li Yunyang opened his eyes and saw Lian Cheng Xue standing nearby. He called out, "Lian Xiong, come over here!"
"Ah, okay!" Lian Cheng Xue quickly walked over and imitated his posture by sitting cross-legged on the ground. The water pouring down from the waterfall seemed capable of washing away the distractions in his heart. With his eyes tightly closed, he soon entered a meditative state.
After half a day had passed, Li Yunyang finally stood up, picked up the Azure Dragon Sword, and jumped into the creek that barely reached his knees. Gathering energy in his dantian, he raised the Azure Dragon Sword which began to shine brightly. "Exorcism Essence: Azure Dragon Raging Wind Slash."
The sword emitted powerful sword energy that enveloped its blade with a piercing sound as if it were a swirling tempest. He threw it forcefully towards the opposite side, and in an instant, the fierce wind struck into the water below.
"Bang bang bang!" The splashes of water erupted into the sky, one after another. After three sounds, the entire stream was in a state of chaos, startling Lian Cheng Xue, who was still meditating. He opened his eyes and looked across: "I didn't expect it to be the Five-Character Formula!"
"Ah!" Li Yunyang slowly put down his Azure Dragon Slash and sighed, "It's good if there's a success once out of ten tries. It seems I need to practice hard; otherwise, I won't have the face to see my master when I return!"
"That's amazing!" Lian Cheng Xue jumped down from the rock and quickly walked to Li Yunyang's side. "Brother Li, with the great battle approaching, I hope you can guide me more!"
"Lian Xiong, do you want to learn too?" Li Yunyang noticed his serious expression and said, "But with only three days, I'm not sure if you can master the three-character formula!"
Thinking of this, Lian Cheng Xue felt a pang of anxiety in his heart: "It doesn't matter; even if I can only improve a little, that's fine! Every time it's me holding everyone back; I'm useless, and yet I still let Shirley protect me. I'm really too useless!"
So it was like this. It seemed that Xiang Xueer had been injured by the Black Dragon this time, and he felt very guilty. Li Yunyang nodded and patted his shoulder: "Lian Xiong, since that's the case, I officially accept you as my disciple. From now on, you will be the first disciple of Holy Ten Exorcists: Feng Qingyang! How about it? You must feel proud saying that!"
"Accept me as your disciple? Really?" Lian Cheng Xue didn't care that he was older than Li Yunyang; he readily knelt on the ground and bowed his head to Li Yunyang: "Master, please accept your disciple Lian Cheng Xue's bow."
Seeing him truly kneeling on the ground, Li Yunyang hurriedly helped Lian Cheng Xue up, sweating as he instructed: "Oh no, don't bow to me! I was just joking. I'll teach you first; when you see my master later, you can perform a formal apprenticeship ceremony. Then you'll be my junior brother; how does that sound?"
"Haha! That sounds great!" Thus, Lian Cheng Xue became Li Yunyang's junior brother, and the two began their three days of training, all for the great battle in three days at Underground City.
At the same time, less than a few hundred meters away from here, Ling Zhu had already arrived at the place where she would meet the Heart Demon. She had been waiting for her at the Ruined Temple.
"Master!" Ling Zhu knelt on the ground and reported, "My identity has likely been discovered. They plan to go to Underground City in three days to kill the Black Dragon."
