Chaos Heavenly Emperor Technique

Chapter 1201: Chapter 1202: Timeless Spring!

With a touch of curiosity, although Ling Feng did not deliberately eavesdrop, he still heard the conversation between the elderly woman and Yang Shuzi.

“Senior brother, it’s been many years!”

The elderly woman saw Yang Shuzi return, turned to look at him, displayed a faint smile, and nodded slightly at him.

Yang Shuzi gazed deeply at the elderly woman, his voice solemn as he said, “I told you, this Nine Palace Qimen Formation could only be unraveled so easily by a disciple of the Nine Palace Sect. However, the Nine Palace Sect no longer exists, and as for you, junior…”

Yang Shuzi sighed softly before continuing, “I will still call you Lady Zhu Qu.”

Lady Zhu Qu’s eyes dimmed as she looked at the senior brother before her, not expecting that when they met again, they would be so distant!

“Yang Shuzi, my elder brother, I had previously sent a letter. Have you considered the matter I mentioned?”

“This matter, I am powerless to help.”

Yang Shuzi shook his head, his expression indifferent, “Since ten years ago, I have vowed never to take a single step out of the Deserted City.”

“But senior brother!”

Lady Zhu Qu clenched her fists, gritting her teeth, “Senior brother, I know you are just avoiding me. But consider it as a plea from your junior. Could you help me, please?”

“Ah…”

Yang Shuzi sighed softly, still unmoved, shaking his head, “Lady Zhu Qu, if you still acknowledge me as your senior brother, I advise you to give up on that illusory hope! Perhaps under certain circumstances, the dead could come back to life, but someone who has been dead for twenty years cannot be resurrected!”

“Ten years ago, we almost died in that perilous land, and most of the sect’s disciples were nearly wiped out. Since then, the Nine Palace Sect ceased to exist. Do you really want to repeat the same mistake as back then?”

“No, it’s definitely possible, he can be awakened, senior brother, please help me! I’ve found almost all the other companions. I don’t want any of the treasures inside, I only want the Timeless Spring to bring my husband back to life!”

Lady Zhu Qu, her eyes red, was crying her heart out.

“The Timeless Spring is just a legend; whether it exists is still unknown. Moreover, even if there is such a spring, using it to refine the Life and Death Mysterious Pill, I wouldn’t even have a ten percent chance of success!”

“No, senior brother, you can help me, you definitely can, as long as you’re willing!”

Lady Zhu Qu grasped Yang Shuzi’s sleeve, her eyes full of pleading.

“Ah…”

Yang Shuzi continued shaking his head, his voice solemn, “Lady Zhu Qu, I will never set foot in that deadly place again. In this vast world, there are plenty of people with higher alchemy accomplishments than mine. You don’t need to persuade me anymore.”

“Senior brother, are you truly so heartless?”

Lady Zhu Qu gritted her teeth, staring at Yang Shuzi. As Yang Shuzi flicked his sleeve, he turned away, ignoring the elderly woman further.

“Fine!”

Lady Zhu Qu took a deep breath, “Yang Shuzi, from now on, our ties as fellow disciples are severed. In that case, return to me the Netherworld Tongxuan Sword that my father passed to you back then!”

Yang Shuzi sighed lightly, “Junior sister, you really shouldn’t go there again. Last time, escaping was sheer luck. These years, for the sake of that dead man, you’ve become obsessed!”

“Yang Shuzi, since the bond between us as siblings is broken, there’s no need to say more. Return the Netherworld Tongxuan Sword to me!”

“Take it!”

Yang Shuzi tossed out a sword that was black as ink and said blandly, “Lady Zhu Qu, although we escaped with this sword back then, this time, no one can guarantee we’ll be as lucky as before. I remind you for the last time, do not indulge in unrealistic fantasies!”

“Yang Shuzi, to put it plainly, you just refuse to save my husband!”

Lady Zhu Qu wore an icy expression as she put away the black sword, no longer showing any courteous demeanor to Yang Shuzi.

“Since you no longer value our past camaraderie, there is nothing left for us to say, farewell!”

Lady Zhu Qu cupped her fists in salute to Yang Shuzi and turned to leave, but when she spotted Ling Feng by the medicine field, a glimmer of brilliance flashed in her eyes, and she approached him with a smile.

“Young master, you must be the alchemist refining elixirs today and causing the celestial phenomenon to change.”

Lady Zhu Qu hurriedly approached Ling Feng, smiling as she said, “Although I didn’t witness it firsthand, I sensed the celestial changes. Although the young master is not old, your alchemy accomplishments are remarkably profound and surprising!”

Ling Feng touched his nose lightly and said, “The senior overpraises me. May I ask if the senior has any business with me?”

Lady Zhu Qu’s eyes sparkled, and she urgently said, “In a few days, I plan to explore a secret realm with some companions at the Emperor level. It once was the sitting spot of a Ninth level Alchemist, certainly harboring considerable fortunes. However, I still lack a high-level Alchemist by my side. I wonder if the young master would be interested?”

Ling Feng arched a brow; he had overheard most of the conversation between Lady Zhu Qu and Yang Shuzi earlier. A sect annihilated, clearly indicating a dangerous location.

Still, as they say, fortune and misfortune are interdependent, and in some sense, a dangerous place might also be a place of blessings.

A Ninth level Alchemist, that’s no trivial matter, and Ling Feng is quite intrigued by their so-called “Timeless Spring.”

According to legend, the Timeless Spring, with just one drop, can add a hundred years to one’s lifespan, and it has the magical power to bring the dead back to life and restore youthful vigor.

The Life and Death Mysterious Pill is an elixir that can resurrect someone who has been dead for decades. Of course, whether such an elixir truly exists is debatable.

Regarding venturing into the perilous land, Ling Feng was quite interested, but this Lady Zhu Qu did not seem entirely trustworthy.

As he was pondering, Lady Zhu Qu smiled faintly, “Young master, there’s no rush to make a decision. Three days later, I will call on you, and if you are willing, it won’t be too late to agree then. Of course, young master, you needn’t be concerned; upon entering the secret realm, I swear on my life to protect you until my last breath!”

With these words, Lady Zhu Qu did not linger and turned to leave.

Ling Feng’s eyes flickered as he watched Lady Zhu Qu’s departing figure, lost in thought.

“Young brother.” Yang Shuzi pondered for a while before saying solemnly, “Listen to the advice of this old man. That place, it is best not to set foot in it. Indeed, it contains significant opportunities, but no matter how great the opportunity, it’s no use if you can’t keep your life intact. Besides, my junior sister has been obsessively chasing the Timeless Spring for over twenty years for a dead person, losing herself. I still advise you not to agree to any of her requests.”

Ling Feng nodded slightly, “Thank you for the warning, senior. However, I still need to consider it further when I return. I will also carefully weigh your advice, senior.”
