Chapter 559: Chapter 358 The Wondrous Use of Merit Light, Refining the Soul_2

Wei Xinghe quickly recounted Wei Zihao’s situation, emphasizing the significant change in his temperament.

“Before the array had even disappeared, Zihao was still in the city, but now I cannot sense his presence at all.”

Wei Xinghe looked desperately anxious.

He had a premonition that if Wei Zihao had left secretly, it would be very difficult to find his eldest son afterward.

“With black runes on his body and a drastic change in his temperament…”

Lu Qing thought back to the Qingyun Sword Pavilion disciples he had previously suppressed on the ground.

The only difference was that those people had been severely injured by him and were still lying there unable to move.

“Family Master Wei, don’t panic, let me take a look.”

Lu Qing released his Heart and Spirit, sensing the situation within the city.

His Divine Soul Power was much stronger than Wei Xinghe’s.

The range he could sense was far beyond what Wei Xinghe could compare to.

Because, under Lu Qing’s full sensing effort, he soon discovered a hidden presence concealing itself somewhere.

Lu Qing showed a trace of a smile, “Family Master Wei, I think I’ve found the location.”

Then, under Wei Xinghe’s surprised and delighted gaze, he disappeared.

Quickly, everyone felt a strange energy suddenly burst forth in a street within the city.

But it was only for an instant before it was abruptly suppressed again.

Soon after, a few breaths later, Lu Qing reappeared before everyone,

still holding a person in his hand—Wei Xinghe saw that it was none other than Wei Zihao.

However, at this moment, Wei Zihao’s eyes were tightly closed, and he was unconscious, having fallen into a coma.

“Zihao!”

“Family Master Wei, rest assured, I’ve just temporarily sealed Zihao’s consciousness.

He’s been afflicted by a spell from that Demon Cultivator, and his mind is lost; it’s quite troublesome.

I’m afraid I will need to return and consult with my master to thoroughly investigate it before we see if there’s a way to break it,” Lu Qing explained.

“That would be excellent,” Wei Xinghe said, finally able to relax.

“Now that the Demon Cultivator has been slain and the matter here is resolved, Family Master Wei, the talisman on Zihao is extracting his Life Energy as the price for its power.

We must resolve it quickly; otherwise, if too much time passes, it will be greatly harmful to him.

Shouldn’t we return now?” Lu Qing suggested to Wei Xinghe.

“In that case, let’s return immediately!” Wei Xinghe replied, his heart leaping again.

He was reminded of the scene when he struggled against Zihao.

At the time, he was worried about Zihao wielding a power far exceeding his own Cultivation Realm; there had to be a price.

Hearing Lu Qing’s words, how could he not be anxious?

He wished he could fly back to Jiuli Village immediately so that Lu Qing and the elder doctor could save his son.

The State Mansion City Lord and others were still waiting on the side.

They had wanted to step forward to express their gratitude for being saved after Wei Xinghe and Lu Qing finished speaking.

However, before they found the chance to offer thanks, Lu Qing and Wei Xinghe already talked about leaving.

Immediately, the State Mansion City Lord hurriedly stepped forward, “Family Master Wei, and benefactor, are you leaving just like this? You’ve saved the entire State Mansion, and we haven’t had the chance to thank you yet!

Moreover, it’s getting late now; why don’t the two of you depart tomorrow instead?”

Wei Xinghe looked at Lu Qing.

But he saw Lu Qing’s indifferent expression and a slight shake of his head.

Wei Xinghe immediately got the message.

“City Lord, as you have seen, my unworthy son has been cursed by that Demon Cultivator, and we must return quickly to seek a way to save him. It is truly inconvenient to stay any longer.

We acknowledge everyone’s kind intentions.

That Demon Cultivator was cruel and evil, harming the people; it was right for us to intervene.

Now that the citizens of the city are still panicking, the urgent task at hand is for you, City Lord, to pacify the people.

You don’t need to trouble yourselves to host us any further.”

After Wei Xinghe finished his polite remarks, Lu Qing placed his hand on Wei Xinghe’s shoulder.

With a thought, a gentle breeze materialized, encircling them.

The next moment, a whirlwind suddenly arose, and the figures of the three of them lifted off the ground and flew towards the outskirts of the city.

Even as they passed by several heavily injured disciples of the Qingyun Sword Pavilion lying on the ground, a rope flew out of Lu Qing’s hand, wrapping around them and taking them along.

The people from the State Mansion City, including the City Lord, wanted to continue to persuade them to stay, but they ultimately didn’t dare to do so.

They could only watch as Lu Qing and the others flew away on the wind, faces filled with shock.

It took a long while for everyone to recover their senses.

Someone couldn’t help but ask, “City Lord, who is that young man? Where does he come from?”

All eyes turned to the City Lord.

In all of State Mansion City, if anyone had the most informed networks and eyes everywhere, it was him.

However, they saw the City Lord shaking his head.

“I don’t know. This benefactor is someone I have seen for the first time. I have had no prior interaction with him.”

In his mind, however, he thought of how Wei Xinghe had addressed the young man as Young Master Lu, which reminded him of some rumors recently coming from the royal capital.

“Even you don’t know?” The crowd was startled.

But some people in the crowd had a sharp gleam in their eyes, pondering their own thoughts.

“Regardless of who this benefactor is, we have all witnessed his strength. He is an existence far beyond our imagination.

Therefore, I advise everyone not to carelessly do anything that might offend him, lest you bring catastrophe upon yourselves,” the City Lord advised as he scanned the crowd.

“Rest assured, City Lord. That young master saved our lives; how could we dare to offend him?” the people replied one after another.

Whether they really took it to heart, however, was unknown.

Lu Qing, naturally, was unaware of the discussions among the City Lord and the others.

Having used the power of his talisman to take Wei Xinghe and the others away, he flew for more than ten miles before landing on the ground.

“Family Head Wei, with my current Cultivation Realm, the power of the Magic Talisman I can use is limited.

Next, I’m afraid we’ll have to walk back.”

Lu Qing spoke without any reluctance to reveal his limitations.

In fact, with his current Divine Soul Power, it was not impossible for him to continue flying while carrying Wei Xinghe and the others by activating the power of his talisman.

However, it would consume a great deal of his Heart and Spirit.

A hundred or two hundred li would be manageable for him to endure.

But the State Mansion City was a thousand li away from Jiuli Village. It was pointless for him to keep up a tough front for that long.

“You have worked hard, Young Master Lu. By the way, who are these people…”

Wei Xinghe felt no dissatisfaction but, instead, showed curiosity about the several people Lu Qing had roped and taken along.

Because he noticed black runes on the faces and hands of these people, similar to those on Wei Zihao.

“These people should be Zihao’s fellow disciples, who have also been cursed by the Demon Cultivator.

So I did not kill them; I wanted to try and see if I could save them,” Lu Qing explained.

To prevent the people tied up on the rope from struggling, Lu Qing also sealed away their consciousness, causing them to fall into unconsciousness.

“Young Master Lu is truly compassionate,” Wei Xinghe praised sincerely.

At this moment, he recognized that these people seemed indeed to be Zihao’s fellow disciples, and they had even visited the Wei Mansion before.

He hadn’t recognized them at first due to the runes covering their faces.

“By the way, Young Master Lu, the curse on Zihao and others, is it easy to lift?”

It was then that Wei Xinghe finally asked the question that had been on his mind.

“To tell the truth, I’m not entirely sure,” Lu Qing contemplated before speaking, “The Demon Cultivator’s origins are mysterious, and he mastered very mysterious Secret Techniques.

The curses he personally placed are likely not easy to remove.”

Wei Xinghe felt a jolt in his heart, realizing his worst fears might be true.

From Lu Qing’s earlier statement about needing to return and study the situation before finding a solution, he had begun to suspect as much.

After a moment of silence, Wei Xinghe spoke, “Whether the curse can be lifted in the end or not, it is Zihao’s fate.

Unfortunately, the Demon Cultivator is already dead; otherwise, maybe we could have forced out of him a way to dissolve the curse on Zihao and the others.”

These words suddenly stirred something in Lu Qing’s mind.

A smile appeared on his face: “That may not necessarily be the case. Family Head Wei, let’s not rush on our journey for now; there might still be a way.”

Wei Xinghe was momentarily astonished.
