Chapter 109

Although Li Su possessed a substantial number of spiritual stones thanks to the spirit weapons he had obtained, the sheer quantity of items required for his mission was substantial. Additionally, who could complain about having too many spiritual stones? Preparedness was wise.

This time, Li Su focused on refining pills tailored for Foundation Building and Golden Core stage cultivators since he couldn’t find the herbs needed for Nascent Soul stage pills. Some herbs, like the Foundation Nurturing Pill ingredients, were available in Linxian City, while he could find suitable substitutes for others.

Li Su’s extensive alchemical experience spanning over a thousand years gave him a deep understanding of various herbs and their properties, fundamental in alchemy. Knowing the herbs was the first step in alchemy.

“Xiao Xue, are you truly not considering returning?” Third Aunt asked.

“No, Third Aunt, please refrain from informing my family about my presence here. I prefer to remain incognito,” Xiao Xue responded.

Meanwhile, the Sect Leader and her aunt continued their conversation in the adjacent room.

When the aunt heard the Sect Leader’s words, she sighed. “Ah, what transpired back then deeply wounded you, but that mother and son have already faced severe consequences. The Ancestors imprisoned them for a hundred years.”

“They were truly vile. After your departure, that woman somehow acquired a second-grade spirit root child and employed a cruel secret technique to transfer the spirit root to her worthless son.”

“Fortunately, when she attempted to tamper with your spirit root, I discovered it in time. While it harmed your foundation, it wasn’t too severe. Let’s not dwell on those scoundrels any longer…”

The aunt halted mid-sentence as she noticed that the Sect Leader wasn’t interested in hearing more. She then retrieved an item from a storage pouch. The item was milky white and radiated an incredibly rich life essence.

“This is a Ten Thousand-Year Spirit Core. I’ve been searching for you all this time because I want to give it to you. It should help compensate for the deficiency in your foundation.”

The aunt continued, but the Sect Leader remained silent.

“Aunt, you should keep it for yourself. I’ve already reached the Nascent Soul stage and can gradually repair my foundation,” the Sect Leader replied.

“You’ve reached Nascent Soul already? Xiao Xue, you’re truly remarkable. You’re only 320 years old this year. It would have been even better if your foundation hadn’t been damaged!”

The aunt was initially pleased, but her expression shifted to regret. Not only regretful, but she also felt somewhat heartbroken. When the Sect Leader left home, she was barely twenty years old. Despite carrying many spiritual stones and several magical treasures, it wasn’t easy for a teenager under twenty to venture alone for so many years.

She then pressed the Ten Thousand-Year Spirit Core into the Sect Leader’s hand. “Xiao Xue, you must accept it. I can’t change what happened with that mother and son, but I can assist you. I’ll do everything I can to support you.”

Upon hearing her aunt’s caring words, the Sect Leader finally accepted the Ten Thousand-Year Spirit Core. A look of relief appeared on her aunt’s face.

“Xiao Xue, you could return. You don’t have to go back home, but Senior Cloud Rock has always wanted to take you as her disciple. She even wanted to nominate you as the Holy Maiden of the Sacred Grounds back then. If it weren’t for that incident… But it’s not too late now. After you’ve repaired your foundation, you’ll still be exceptional.”

The aunt continued to persuade her, mentioning the Sacred Grounds and the position of the Holy Maiden. However, the Sect Leader couldn’t help but feel a bit dizzy. What if she had smoothly entered the Sacred Grounds back then? How fast would her growth have been?

Nonetheless, she had no desire to return to that region. She didn’t want to encounter anyone from her family with deep ties to the Sacred Grounds. Even if she went there, she might come across her family members.

Back then, when that wicked woman had seized her in the absence of her parents, intending to forcibly transfer her spirit root to the wicked woman’s son, very few people in her family had dared to speak up.

Her spirit root might not have survived if it weren’t for her aunt. Despite the timely intervention, the potion the woman had forced her to drink still damaged her foundation.

Yet, the punishment meted out to that woman was only a hundred years of confinement. She no longer felt any sense of belonging to that family.

“Aunt, no, I’m fine here,” she said firmly. The Sect Leader’s response was resolute. In her mind, the image of a certain figure involuntarily appeared, making her choice even more meaningful. She had made up her mind she wouldn’t return.

“I understand you don’t want to see those people from your family again. After that incident, with Senior Cloud Rock’s efforts, no family members are left in the Purple Gold Sacred Grounds except for your sister Ning’er.”

“Ning’er?”

“You’ve been gone for many years, and your parents had another child.”

The Sect Leader understood now. “With Ning’er by their side, I have no attachments to my family anymore. My decision is final. Please don’t persuade me any further, Aunt.”

“Ah, well, Aunt will respect your decision then,” her aunt conceded.

“Is Li Su crafting pills? Can I come in?”

“Master, please come in.”

The sect leader entered Li Su’s room, accompanied by her aunt. The sect leader noticed Li Su was busy with alchemy and decided not to disturb him.

Meanwhile, her aunt, who had just noticed Li Su, watched him curiously. After observing for a while, she also glanced at the Holy Maiden of the Moonlight Sect. Seeing that the sect leader had no intention of leaving, her aunt had no choice but to stay and keep her company.

Inside the room, silence prevailed. Soon, a furnace of pills was ready, and a delightful fragrance filled the air.

“It smells wonderful.”

“Yes, it must be the scent of the pills. Is there a skilled practitioner here practicing alchemy?”

This fragrance even wafted throughout the inn, arousing the guests’ curiosity.

“It’s likely that senior.”
