We made you practice martial arts, and you've mastered the Great Golden Body?

In Bai Suzhen's eyes, Baoqing Fangzhu was always a mysterious and unpredictable figure.

From hundreds of years ago to the present, she has never truly witnessed the depth of the other party's abilities. Of course, don't get the wrong idea; she's referring to the depth of their strength.

Furthermore, the other party possessed many mysterious magical artifacts and treasures, and Bai Suzhen never doubted whether the owner of Baoqing Workshop could save Xu Xian.

Because the owner of Baoqing Workshop is most skilled at using deceptive tactics and bringing the dead back to life.

As for the veracity of this news, it is undoubtedly true.

Of course, doubt was useless. In these six realms, there are countless immortals and gods, but the only one she knew who could lend a helping hand at this time was the demon owner of Baoqing Workshop.

All Bai Suzhen could do now was rush towards Baoqingfang without regard for anything else. At the same time, she had only one thought in her mind, which was—

They rescued Xu Xian.

Tears silently streamed down his pale, angular face.

I'm back, and all the wonderful memories are flooding back to me once again.

After Bai Suzhen's initial turmoil subsided, her love for Xu Xian surged back into her heart. Looking at the person in her arms, she felt unwilling to lose Xu Xian like this.

She still remembers their chance encounter on West Lake, a beautiful meeting, although it was partly her deliberate act.

But as the saying goes, it takes a hundred years of cultivation to share a boat ride, and a thousand years to share a pillow.

In this world filled with gods and immortals, everyone's fate seems unpredictable, yet it is all under the control of those powerful beings.

However, due to certain reasons, those immortals and gods will not easily extend their reach to the mortal world unless absolutely necessary.

Only when fate brings two lovers together can they successfully come together.

She and Xu Xian once ran "Bao'an Hall," also known as Xu's Pharmacy, together treating the sick and saving lives, and were respected and loved by the people of Lin'an.

Their lives were once so wonderful and so happy.

Bai Suzhen didn't understand why she did that, why she lost her mind in a moment of impulse. After all, Xu Xian was just an ordinary mortal.

And he was also a weak scholar.

For someone like this, seeing a giant python a hundred meters long for the first time would be a normal reaction of fear, and that's how a weak scholar should behave.

Judging from Xu Xian's subsequent actions and behavior, it's not hard to guess that he had figured out the true identity of the giant python, which was actually her.

but.

Xu Xian hesitated for only a moment before, driven by love, he accepted the fact that Bai Suzhen was a snake demon, and dragged his exhausted and bleeding legs to chase after the giant python.

And what about her? How did she do it?
By the time she came to her senses, it was already too late. Xu Xian was already on the verge of death due to the numerous negative effects.

"Master! Master!" Bai Suzhen, holding Xu Xian whose breathing was growing weaker and weaker, was frantic with worry, running wildly through the dark corridor while shouting loudly.
Sudden.

hum.

A cold beam of light appeared instantly, enveloping Bai Suzhen, who was covered in sweat. Her eyes, which had not seen sunlight for a long time, suddenly narrowed for a moment, and her vision became somewhat blurred.

"Dengdengdeng..."

In an instant, a pale blue foxfire appeared in a circle centered around Bai Suzhen, dispelling the surrounding darkness and illuminating the area.

But the chill only intensified.

However, this was not a big deal for Bai Suzhen. What was most important to her at that moment was the short figure that appeared in front of her.

Or to be more precise, she is a young woman with long, delicate legs and a petite figure.

These two words may seem inappropriate together, but that's the reality.

She was petite with a cute, loli-like face and a pair of fox-like eyes that exuded endless allure. Her crossed legs made her legs appear even longer and more slender. She held a large opium pipe in her hand, surrounded by swirling smoke.

She wore a red and green outfit that, while not gaudy, had the hem drooping over her shoulders as if it might fall off at any moment, revealing her smooth, jade-like shoulders.

Such a scene would be impossible for an ordinary man to look away from, but unfortunately, besides Bai Suzhen who was anxious to save her husband, there was only Xu Xian who was already on the verge of death.

Nobody appreciates this beautiful scenery.

The only flaw is that the owner of Baoqing Workshop has a fox face on the back of his head, making him two-faced, which is quite creepy.

Of course, for some people who enjoy novelty, this might be a pleasure.

After a while~
“Pei…dan…” The petite owner of Baoqing Workshop weaved among the clothes racks, as if searching for suitable clothes. Behind her followed two even smaller, less than half a meter tall, big-headed dolls.

at last.

"Martial Arts Opera!" The owner of Baoqing Workshop's eyes lit up when he saw a larger martial arts opera costume. He quickly moved to the front, examined it carefully, and then sighed helplessly.

With a casual flick of the wrist, the oversized martial arts costume instantly covered one of the large-headed dolls, making it dizzy and disoriented, unable to see the road ahead.

Bai Suzhen, holding Xu Xian, knelt on the bluestone ground not far from the owner of Baoqingfang, saying nothing and just watching quietly.

Given her strength, she had no right to speak unless the owner of Baoqingfang spoke first.

All we can do is wait.

"Young lady, you must save your husband." The owner of Baoqingfang, holding a pipe in his hand, strolled leisurely among the clothes racks, carefully selecting clothes, and said softly, "Difficult, yet not difficult."

Upon hearing this, Bai Suzhen's breathing became heavy, and her eyes lit up slightly as she looked hopefully at the petite owner of Baoqing Workshop.

It's good if there's a way; the worst thing is if there isn't.

"It's not difficult, the key is that I do know how to save him."

Upon hearing this, Bai Suzhen straightened up, and the light in her eyes shone even brighter, filled with the dawn of hope.

"Moreover, the young lady has already paid the fee in advance and given me this white snake scale." As she spoke, the owner of Baoqing Workshop stretched out her palm, and a "jade" shimmering with a hazy white light appeared in her hand.

Without a doubt, it was the life-bound scale that Bai Suzhen had plucked earlier. Suddenly, the petite owner of Baoqing Workshop flashed by, moving with incredible speed, and arrived beside Bai Suzhen. Her face had transformed into a fluffy white fox face, and she extended her pipe, placing it on Bai Suzhen's chin and lifting it slightly.

"The difficulty lies in the fact that, young lady, you are just an ordinary mortal. You suddenly saw your true face, which frightened this boy so much that two of his three souls and seven spirits have disappeared, and the remaining soul is also slowly dying."

Upon hearing this, Bai Suzhen's red lips parted slightly, her eyes flashed intensely, and fine beads of sweat appeared once again on her already dry brows.

This situation was beyond her imagination.

Originally, Bai Suzhen thought that no matter how frightened he was, he could only lose one soul and one spirit at most, which was the worst that could happen. But now it is said that Xu Xian has lost two of his three souls.

What is this concept?
Once all three souls are lost, let alone reviving Xu Xian, he probably won't even have a next life; his soul will simply dissipate.

"However, I also have a word of advice for you, young lady: how can a coward like Xu Xian stay with you forever?"

“This was my fault, not his fault.” Upon hearing this, Bai Suzhen did not hesitate for a moment before retorting to the head of Baoqing Workshop: “I will be more careful in the future and will never let him see my true face again.”

"Moreover, Xu Xian is not a cowardly or weak person." As she said this, tears welled up in Bai Suzhen's eyes. She gently stroked Xu Xian's face, which was gradually losing its warmth and was no longer smooth: "He is very brave. In my heart, he is the best husband in the world."

"Hehe..." The owner of Baoqing Workshop chuckled lightly, neither confirming nor denying it.

"Human? Demon?"

"It's so hard to be together, harder than climbing to heaven. Young lady, your life from now on will probably be filled with hardship and sorrow, and it may be endless."

The owner of Baoqing Workshop seemed to have something in mind when she spoke, but she also gave off a sense of certainty, as if she had personally experienced these things.

Very strange.

However, Bai Suzhen, in her eagerness to save her husband, naturally did not notice this slight abnormality.

"There will be a way to deal with it later. Please, Master, save him!" Bai Suzhen answered crisply and forcefully, without the slightest hesitation.

In Bai Suzhen's view, what do worries and hardships matter?
In these hundreds of years of cultivation, how many troubles and hardships have she and Xiaoqing encountered? They have even faced life-or-death situations.

What is this kind of suffering compared to what we have now?
Importantly, Bai Suzhen lived for hundreds of years, but only when she was with Xu Xian, or perhaps with Xu Xian, could her body and mind truly relax.

Centuries cannot compare to a few years of knowing and accompanying each other.

Thinking of this, Bai Suzhen's determination for Xu Xian became even stronger.

"Hehe..." Upon hearing this, the owner of Baoqing Workshop smiled slightly, revealing a satisfied expression. He then waved his hand, and several demons the size of a human's palm suddenly appeared, their almost transparent wings flapping rapidly yet silently.

"For the sake of our five hundred years of fate, come with me." The owner of Baoqing Workshop said as he walked away into the distance. At the same time, four little demons flew to Xu Xian's side, grabbed his clothes and lifted him up.

Bai Suzhen was stunned for a moment, then suddenly stood up, wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, and was overjoyed. She quickly followed in the footsteps of the owner of Baoqingfang.

Since the other party has said so, it means that they are willing to help.

"Young lady, you probably know that there are countless ways to save lives in this world, but there are very few that are within your means and that you are willing to pay the price for."

Bai Suzhen listened patiently.

That's the principle. There are countless ways to save people, especially ordinary people like Xu Xian.

The most direct way would be to wreak havoc on the Netherworld like the Monkey King, or to ascend to the heavens and find a pill from Laozi, such as the Nine-Turn Rejuvenation Pill...

However, none of these methods are practical.

As for practical solutions, Bai Suzhen did have some ideas, but time was limited. Given Xu Xian's condition, he could only hold on for an hour or two at most.

There was simply not enough time.

"However, there is a magical herb that can save him. It grows on a cliff in the extremely cold northwest, in the Kunlun Mountains."

When he said the last three words, the owner of Baoqing Workshop slowed down his voice considerably and became much more solemn.

After all, what kind of place is Kunlun Mountain? It is a famous mountain in the Song Dynasty, and it is said that a great master lives in seclusion there. However, for the owner of Baoqingfang, this is not a legend, but a fact.

Bai Suzhen was naturally fully aware of this.

"Kunlun Mountain?" Bai Suzhen murmured softly, carefully searching her memory for anything about Kunlun Mountain, as well as all the rumors she had heard.

She looked up and saw Xu Xian being carried away by those little demons to a distance. Without having time to think, she quickly chased after them and stayed by Xu Xian's side.

“Yes, it’s easy to save these mere mortals.” The owner of Baoqing Workshop said as he rummaged through the pile of junk, seemingly searching for something.

Sudden.

Just as the owner of Baoqing Workshop opened a treasure chest, a hand with a large eye suddenly emerged. The owner of Baoqing Workshop smiled awkwardly and then closed the treasure chest.

And to prevent the treasure chest from opening again, she sat down directly on it, crossing her delicate legs and crossing her legs.

“All you need to do, young lady, is go to Kunlun Mountain and pick a piece of magic herb, and you can revive your husband, Xu Xian.” After saying this, the owner of Baoqing Workshop jumped to the top of “a pile of garbage”.

He then crouched down and frantically rummaged through the "garbage heap".

“That may be true, but even if I travel day and night, it will still take me three days and three nights to reach Kunlun Mountain. And my husband…” As she spoke, Bai Suzhen glanced back at the increasingly weak Xu Xian and said, “My husband’s last breath could be…”

She stopped speaking halfway through her sentence, but those who knew her knew what the second half of her sentence meant.

"Hey."

"Finally found it." As soon as she finished speaking, the owner of Baoqing Workshop jumped down from the "garbage heap" carrying a furnace that was half her height. She landed lightly on one foot without making a sound.

"This is it." The owner of Baoqing Workshop placed the stove on a table, tapped the surface of the stove with his pipe, making a crisp sound, and said, word by word, "Boshan stove."

Upon hearing this, Bai Suzhen moved closer and looked at the Boshan incense burner on the table, which resembled a miniature fairy mountain.

The furnace lid is divided into two layers. The upper layer is engraved with layers of mountains and clouds, with tigers and bears appearing among the mountains. The lower layer is cast with patterns of dragons, tigers, vermilion birds, camels, as well as grass, trees, clouds and other decorations.

Without wasting any more time, the owner of Baoqing Workshop reached out and gently turned the Boshan furnace a few times at the waist. The words "Kunlun" appeared on the side of the furnace, and the top of the furnace transformed into a mountain.

"Look at the top of the incense burner; that's Mount Kunlun!" (End of Chapter)
