Chapter 587: Chapter 585 Tang Shengyi’s Decision

Pfft!

In the blink of an eye, Blood Rakshasa’s mind suffered a blow, and a mouthful of fresh blood spurted out. His aura suddenly became incredibly weak, and all four of his avatars disappeared without a trace.

Boom!

Xiao Yifeng launched another Star Fist, viciously blasting Blood Rakshasa away and sending him flying for over a dozen meters.

At the same moment, Xiao Yifeng felt a sudden, intense pain in both eyes, as though they were being scraped by knives, causing his brows to furrow tightly and a pained expression to appear on his face.

Xiao Yifeng’s Minghong Blade was planted in the ground, and his body trembled because of the pain in his eyes, cold sweat breaking out on his forehead.

”Young Master!”

Seeing Xiao Yifeng in this state, Cold Edge and Kuang Shi both rushed over to support him.

The pain in his eyes lasted for dozens of seconds before subsiding, and Xiao Yifeng’s face was covered in sweat, his entire body seeming weakened and exhausted.

Clearly, this was the aftereffect of the Soul Devouring, and it was Xiao Yifeng’s first time experiencing such pain, which was truly unbearable for an ordinary person.

”Young Master, how are you doing?”

Kuang Shi asked anxiously.

”I’m fine.”

Xiao Yifeng shook his head.

Meanwhile, Blood Rakshasa took the opportunity to drag his badly injured body away from the spot.

Cold Edge and Kuang Shi were about to give chase but were stopped by Xiao Yifeng.

At this time, Ye Yaxin, Ye Yashi, and Ye Tianxiong all came over.

”Brother-in-law, how are you? Are you alright?”

Ye Yashi looked at Xiao Yifeng with a face full of worry and urgency.

”I’m alright; you all don’t need to worry, I just need to rest a bit.”

Xiao Yifeng said indifferently and then found a room in the Ye Family Manor to commence his cultivation, recovering the force that had been depleted within his body.

Under extreme exhaustion, Xiao Yifeng felt that his absorption of the star energy from the sky was quicker, with star energy suffusing his entire body, tempering his flesh and simultaneously concentrating to incessantly impact his Fifth Major Acupoint.

After a period of cultivation, Xiao Yifeng took out a box and opened it. A golden Buddha light shone forth, exuding a strong Buddha Dao aura; it was the Sharira he had brought back from Japan.

Originally, this Sharira was to be handed over to the national government, but in the end, Xiao Han hadn’t reclaimed it, after all, Xiao Yifeng had been the one safeguarding it throughout the journey.

Furthermore, Xiao Han’s actions clearly bore his own wishes, hoping that Xiao Yifeng would become stronger with the help of the Sharira. As for how to report to the higher-ups, Xiao Han had his ways.

Now having seven Shariras, the one in Xiao Yifeng’s possession, along with the Sharira previously obtained from the Buddha statue at the Treasure Trove Pavilion, had brought together two Shariras.

However, only by collecting all seven Shariras, could the secret of the Sharira be unraveled to reveal the treasures hidden within.

Xiao Yifeng was indeed curious about the secrets hidden within the seven Shariras, but obviously, he had no way of knowing at the moment. Only by finding all seven Shariras could the secret be unlocked.

Meanwhile, at Tang Sect in Shu Capital.

In a room at the Tang Sect Manor, Tang Shengyi and her father, the Sect Leader Tang Shihai, were sitting together.

”Shengyi, I know you don’t want to marry Yao Haoran, but after all, you promised him earlier, and he saved my life. If we disagree, I’m afraid that the Tang Sect...”

Tang Shihai’s face turned solemn, showing a hint of helplessness.

”Father, I know. I won’t tarnish the Tang Sect’s reputation. Since I promised him that I would marry him if he saved you, then I, Tang Shengyi, will definitely keep my word. I won’t disgrace you or the Tang Sect.”

Tang Shengyi spoke seriously, a flicker of uncharacteristic color flashing in her eyes.

”Ah, you are placed in a difficult position. It’s all my fault for this sudden predicament!”

Tang Shihai sighed.

”Father, you were poisoned by accident, with such a difficult poison at that. There’s definitely something wrong here; there must be someone within the Tang Sect who wants to cause trouble!”

Tang Shengyi suddenly looked at Tang Shihai and said.

”Mm, I’ve already sent people to secretly investigate this, but there’s no result yet.”

Tang Shengyi said in a deep voice.

”To poison you without your knowledge, the culprit must be highly skilled, and someone close to you, Father.”

”I will have someone conduct a thorough investigation and root out this person.”

Tang Shihai nodded gravely in response.

Ah!

Suddenly, Tang Shihai furrowed his brows and let out a cry of pain, his face expressing agony as he clutched his head with both hands.

”Father, what’s wrong?”

Seeing Tang Shihai like this, Tang Shengyi’s expression changed, and she hurriedly called out.

”It’s nothing, I’ve just been feeling headaches recently, but they’ll clear up in a few minutes.”

Tang Shihai shook his head and explained.

”How could this be? Is it that your body hasn’t fully recovered yet? Or that the toxins in your body have not been completely cleared out?”

Tang Shengyi looked at Tang Shihai with a worried expression on her face.

”I don’t know, but aside from the headache, I don’t have other symptoms, so it should be fine.”

Tang Shihai shook his head.

”Father, I know someone in the secular world who is extremely skilled in medicine; should I have someone find him to examine you?”

Tang Shengyi said.

”No need, you know that even when Old Hua, one of the three great national physicians of China, examined me, he couldn’t find anything. If there’s something wrong with my body, these secular doctors won’t be able to detect it either.”

Tang Shihai shook his head.

”He’s different from others; his medical skills are formidable, and he can also concoct elixirs!”

”Oh, he can concoct elixirs, too? Who is this distinguished individual?”

A look of astonishment flashed in Tang Shihai’s eyes.

”He’s called Xiao Yifeng. During my time in the secular world, it was he who took me in. Although this young man is only in his twenties, both his strength and medical expertise are formidable. Additionally, he understands alchemy and has even subdued ’The First Ancient Evil Knife,’ the Minghong Blade,” Tang Shengyi recounted one by one.

”Judging from what you say, this young man indeed has some capabilities. Is he from a clan or a sect?”

Tang Shihai said indifferently.

”I don’t know, his identity is quite mysterious. All I know is that he has a master who seems to be a recluse with great expertise.”

”Alright, let’s talk about this later. For now, let’s prepare for the marriage alliance with Medicine King Valley instead, Shengyi. Are you sure you have really thought this through? If you truly don’t want it, I...”

”Enough, Father, don’t say more. As a member of the Tang Sect and your daughter, I won’t disgrace you or the Tang Sect, nor will I let the Tang Sect be accused of ungratefulness.”

Tang Shengyi said again, her eyes filled with determination.

”Ah...”

Tang Shihai sighed and left the room.

After Tang Shihai left, a strange light flickered in Tang Shengyi’s eyes.

The next day, a new day began.

In Yanjing, at the Xiao Family.

In a pavilion by a pond, Situ Yan sat drinking tea, his gaze flickering with light, while a thirty-something-year-old maidservant stood behind him.
