Morning Star

Chapter 418 If you come again, I won't chase you away

Mo Xinglan sighed secretly. He hadn't told her that the materials for the Bone Shaping Pill were scarce. He had asked Fang Hao to send someone to find the relevant spiritual medicine a few days ago, but they only found enough to make five portions.

If it were in the past, he would have been able to successfully refine all five portions, but now his health is too poor and his energy is limited, so he might only be able to refine 60%.

If she knew, she would probably feel even more depressed.

So it’s better not to tell her yet.

At this time, Chujiu thought of something and looked at the herbs in his hand: "I heard that elixirs are divided into grades one to ten, and the same is true for alchemists. Xingxing can refine ninth-grade ones, so can Xingxing refine tenth-grade ones?"

She often saw him take out the seventh, eighth and ninth grade pills, such as the Soul Gathering Pill, the Heart Gathering Pill, and the Bone Shaping Pill. And he seemed to be able to take out the Soul Gathering Pill whenever he said so.

Mo Xinglan chuckled after hearing this and did not hide it: "Yes. But many tenth-grade elixirs require special spiritual herbs that are hard to find and few people know how to refine them."

Her eyes sparkled: "Isn't Xingxing a 10th-rank alchemist?"

He just smiled and said nothing, which was considered as his tacit agreement.

“The stars are amazing!”

She cheered, and suddenly thought of something: "Can Xing Xing refine the Marrow Cleansing Pill?"

He looked at her with gentle eyes, thinking of the fact that she had relied on the Marrow Cleansing Pill to restore her spiritual roots. He rubbed her head and said, "Yes. But the Marrow Cleansing Pill is one of the most difficult to refine among the tenth-grade pills, and the materials required are also extremely demanding. And after taking the Marrow Cleansing Pill, you need to use external objects to help the body absorb it in order for it to be fully effective. So generally there is no need to refine it, it will not be worth the loss."

Chujiu suddenly understood and nodded after hearing this: "No wonder the Marrow Cleansing Pill is so expensive."

Not only is there a very small number of alchemists who can make it, but also the alchemists who can make it feel that the cost of making the Marrow Cleansing Pill outweighs the benefits and are unwilling to do so.

The two of them didn't speak again after that, because Mo Xinglan needed to be calm while refining the elixir.

……

In the end, just as Mo Xinglan had expected, he only succeeded in refining three Bone Shaping Pills. The other two were destroyed in the pill furnace.

It's a pity, but it's enough.

However, refining the elixir also had an impact on his current body, and he fainted on the way back to the house. Fortunately, Chujiu was quick to hug him and prevent him from falling to the ground.

I slept for the whole day.

On this day, Chujiu packed up some things, mainly elixirs and spiritual medicines.

When Mo Xinglan woke up, it was time to set off.

The Red Phoenix is ​​not here, and the mount has been replaced by an ordinary winged beast.

Chujiu and Mo Xinglan took one, and Fang Hao, Zhuohua and Elder Liu took another.

The winged beast is not as fast as the red phoenix, but its slower speed will have less impact on Mo Xinglan's body.

However, Chujiu still set up a barrier to block the wind for him.

Looking at the familiar jungle and road below, Chujiu felt a little emotional.

"What's wrong?" Mo Xinglan noticed her change.

She sighed, "Nothing, it just feels like a long time has passed, but it also feels like it was just yesterday."

"The last time we went from Mo Clan to the Demon Realm, Chi Feng took us along this route. You were unconscious at that time, and I didn't have the heart to see anything else."

As she spoke, she looked down at the scenery passing by below: "Now that I think about it, I realize that a lot of things happened that day."

After hearing this, Mo Xinglan lowered his eyes and thought of what happened that day.

What he will never forget in his life is the moment when she left him.

It was more painful for him to see her leave than for the bone curse to break out. He would rather endure the pain brought by the bone curse than to see her leave again.

"Jiuer..." He leaned gently on her shoulder.

Chujiu turned around and held him up with his hand: "Huh? What's wrong? Are you feeling uncomfortable?"

He shook his head, slowly closed his eyes and whispered: "If it happens again, I won't chase you away."

"...Yeah." She finally felt better.

After that, the two fell into silence. No one spoke, but each of them felt warm in their hearts.

Being able to rely on each other like this, the journey doesn't seem so difficult.

The winged beasts that Fang Hao and Elder Liu were riding followed behind the two of them.

Somehow the scene of the two people cuddling each other in the front looks inexplicably sad.

They looked at each other, sighed, and shook their heads helplessly.

Mo Xinglan, who had his eyes closed, suddenly opened his eyes, and a cold light flashed across his eyes.

Chujiu could naturally feel the changes in his aura as he leaned close to him. This feeling was familiar yet strange, and he hadn't felt it from him for a long time.

"What's wrong?" She looked around and saw nothing.

Mo Xinglan put away the fierce aura on his body and closed his eyes again: "It's okay, don't worry."

It was not an illusion. The feeling at that moment was very familiar, very similar to the feeling the demon gave him, but also different.

It was definitely that obsession. It seemed that he had finally shown up. His spirit was weak now, so he didn't need to worry about his obsession being affected by him.

"Are you really okay? Don't lie to me." Chujiu obviously didn't believe it.

She had clearly noticed the change in him just now. Something must have happened in secret, but she just didn't feel it.

Mo Xinglan frowned slightly after hearing this, feeling a little annoyed that he had overreacted just now.

"Why should I lie to you? It won't do me any good." He muttered with his eyes closed.

I secretly thanked myself for closing my eyes so I didn't have to worry about her noticing my guilty conscience.

"..."

The ninth day of the first lunar month does not speak, sees through but does not speak. Quietly relax the spiritual awareness and secretly investigate.

"I'm sleepy. Let me take a nap." Mo Xinglan moved his head.

He was injured, not that his cultivation was destroyed, so how could he not notice her little movements?

"Huh? Oh, good."

Chujiu quickly retracted his spiritual consciousness and hugged him to prevent him from falling accidentally.

After a few hours, we finally arrived at Mo's house.

The Mo family's house suffered heavy damage in the previous battle, and has been renovated over time.

Xuanyu Courtyard, where Mo Xinglan lived, suffered the worst damage, with only a dilapidated wall left.

Now it has been restored to its original state, and all the original items that can be found or restored are placed inside.

But no one knew what the original furnishings inside looked like, so they had to rearrange them.

The forest across Xuanyu Courtyard was also cut down. Originally, they wanted to use it to build houses, but they found that it was very good for growing spiritual herbs, so they used it to grow spiritual herbs.

As for Xuanyu Courtyard, that is Mo Xinglan's residence. Apart from someone cleaning it every day, no one lives there and it has always been reserved for Mo Xinglan.

At that time, only the trunk of the old plum tree was left. Now that the house has been rebuilt, it is still standing there.

Fang Hao reminded Elder Qi and Elder Liu about this matter.

Although he was not involved in the events of the past, he and Jinxi were siblings and naturally had their own way of contacting each other, so he knew the origin of the plum tree. And the plum tree also meant a lot to him.

Now Chujiu has brought Mo Xinglan back and they still live in Xuanyu Courtyard.

Although Xuanyuyuan is still as big and looks the same as before, many things are new and it is much more vibrant than before.

There were servants cleaning the yard, maids chatting and laughing, and guards at the door.

Chujiu carried the unconscious Mo Xinglan and returned here under the guidance of Fang Hao. When he saw this scene, he wondered if he had come to the wrong place.

I was still a little dazed until I put Mo Xinglan on the bed in the original room.

The building's appearance hadn't changed, but it looked very new, and there were a lot more furniture in the house.

The bed was also softer and wider than the previous one. It was actually springy when she sat on it. If Mo Xinglan hadn't fallen asleep, she would have jumped on it for a while.

Looking around the room, it was almost the same as before, except that the dressing table looked like it had been renovated. The silver dressing mirror on it was gone.

Where have you been?

Think about it, she had only been to his room once. Although she came to Xuanyu Courtyard that day, she was fighting with Mo Yun and had no time to come in and take a look. Later, it was destroyed beyond recognition by the formation.

Without thinking any more, he stood up, pulled the quilt for Mo Xinglan, opened the door and walked out.

He gave a few instructions to the two guards at the door, asked Zhuohua to stay outside to guard, and then left Xuanyu Courtyard.

She felt that she needed to know more about Qilin and Chengtan'ao. The current leader of the Mohist School was Elder Qi, so she went to find Elder Qi.

He took Fang Hao and followed Elder Qi to investigate the area around Chengtan'ao, and met Chi Feng on the way back.

Chi Feng changed her usual fiery red outfit and wore a plain white dress. It was no longer as gorgeous as before, but more plain and elegant.

Chi Feng was at Chu's house before. When he heard that Chu Jiu and Mo Xinglan had arrived at Mo's house, he came to Mo's house to visit Mo Xinglan.

Chujiu didn't expect to meet Chi Feng and was shocked by what he was wearing.

Fang Hao didn't expect this either.

The moment he saw Chi Feng, his heart trembled. He remembered what he had promised Chi Feng before, and turned around to leave Chi Feng's sight.

"Where are you going?" Chujiu grabbed with his backhand.

Chujiu had an original owner, no, this body now belonged to her. Chujiu was born with supernatural powers, so how could Fang Hao escape?

Fang Hao had no choice but to be easily pulled back by Chujiu.

When Elder Qi saw the young people, he did not get involved in their conversation. He said a few words to Chujiu and went to deal with the affairs of the clan.

Fang Hao turned his head away and didn't dare to look at Chi Feng. He begged Chu Jiu desperately: "Madam, why are you pulling me?"

"I let you go?" Chujiu glanced sideways, "Why are you in such a hurry?"

"I..." He hesitated, "I, I'm in a hurry, can't I?"

"In a hurry?" Chujiu sneered, looked at him and then looked at Chifeng, "You weren't in a hurry just now, why are you in a hurry when you see Chifenger?"

Chi Feng and Fang Hao were both stunned. They looked at each other subconsciously and quickly turned away.

Chujiu raised her eyebrows slightly, these two people were having a quarrel.

"You..." She raised her hand and pointed at Fang Hao and then at Chi Feng.

"Madam." Chi Feng's eyebrows jumped and he took a step forward. "Where is my master? I want to go see him."

Chujiu pursed her lips and stared at him for a while: "He is resting. What's the matter with you?"

"Can't I go visit my master if nothing happens?" Chi Feng answered confidently.
