Chapter 699 Unexpected
Yunxi held a high-grade spirit stone in her hand, and after considering it for a moment, she spoke:

"Deer Demon King, the one who planted the evil seed in you must have been a female cultivator."

After a long pause, Lu Zhihui finally replied with a simple "hmm," clearly not wanting to say anything more.

Yunxi, however, wanted to know more. After thinking for a moment, she flicked her sleeve and pushed the portrait of the female disciple of Dengyun Tower, which she had drawn with her spiritual power, in front of the Demon King, and cautiously asked:
"I wonder if that female cultivator is among these people?"

Lu Zhihui glanced at it and shook his head, saying:

“It wasn’t these female cultivators; her cultivation level at the time was in the late Nascent Soul stage.”

After thinking it over, he used his demonic power to draw a portrait and presented it to Yunxi, saying:

"I don't know if this is her true appearance, but I vaguely remember that she had a pleasant hibiscus fragrance."

Yunxi nodded, carefully memorizing the female cultivator's face and features before scattering the portrait.

Lu Zhihui pursed her lips, her expression somewhat unnatural, and said:

"That was the only time I interacted with human cultivators. After entering the human cultivator city, I encountered that female cultivator. At that time, she seemed to be being chased and her spiritual power should have been almost depleted. She fainted after bumping into me."

I felt compassion for her and took her to a temporary place to stay. However, she did not wake up that day, so I sat in meditation and did not rush to treat her.

But in the latter half of the night, the scent of hibiscus on her grew even stronger, causing the original owner to momentarily lose focus. For some reason, we started coughing!

Lu Zhihui coughed lightly to cover up his actions, and Yun Xi immediately understood. Lu Zhihui had engaged in dual cultivation with that female cultivator, but she didn't know whether he had taken the initiative, been seduced, or whether the two had simply gone along with it.

"The next day, after I regained consciousness, the female cultivator was gone, without leaving a single word. I searched the city but couldn't find any trace of her, so I went to other cities to train. I never encountered that female cultivator again, and the matter was left unresolved."

After listening, Yunxi analyzed:

"According to the Demon King, it must have been that female cultivator you met once who planted the evil seed in your body. However, at that time, her cultivation level was lower than yours, so she chose to lie dormant, and you did not notice it, which is why the evil seed has been lurking until now."

The other party is controlling you to incite the beast horde, likely to facilitate their accomplices' theft of the Healer Sect's 'Tree of Immortality,' using the beast horde to tie down some of the Healer Sect's forces, thus making their actions easier.

Lu Zhihui said with a dark face:

"It should be, but we have no way of knowing now. If I encounter her again, I will definitely tear her to pieces."

Being betrayed or plotted against is not something to be proud of.

Yunxi completed her mission and her spiritual energy had almost recovered, so she got up to leave. This time, Lu Zhihui did not stop her and waved his sleeve to send Yunxi and Bingli out of the Wolong Mountain Range.

Once inside Xiaolong City, Bingli couldn't wait to ask:

"Ranxi, has the black aura on the Demon King's inner core been completely removed? Who exactly is controlling the Deer Demon King?"

Looking at Bingli's gossipy face, Yunxi knew that the other party's "gossip" nature had awakened, so she just said what she could.

After hearing this, Bing Li clicked her tongue repeatedly and transmitted her voice:
"I never expected that even the Deer Demon King couldn't resist the charms of a beautiful woman. He ended up cultivating with her in such a muddled way and even had an evil seed implanted in him. Luckily, his cultivation level was high at the time, otherwise he would have been controlled by the evil spirit on the spot."

Yunxi also sighed:

“You’re right, so you can’t pick up the cultivators by the roadside. Who knows what kind of background they have?”

Bingli nodded in agreement, and then said:
"Could I see that female cultivator's portrait? Maybe I know who she is."

Yunxi didn't refuse. After avoiding the crowd, she used her spiritual power to sketch a portrait of the female cultivator and pushed it in front of Bingli. Upon seeing the portrait, a look of surprise flashed in Bingli's eyes. She examined it carefully for a couple more moments and then asked:
"Ranxi, are you sure this is the female cultivator?"

"I'm certain this was drawn by the Deer Demon King. Do you know this female cultivator?"

Bing Li nodded with a complicated expression:

"She is Sheng Xia, the first Daoist partner of Su Jing, the eldest son of the reclusive Su family. She and the Su brothers were childhood sweethearts."

This time, it was Yunxi's turn to be surprised:

"you sure?"

“I’m sure. You asked me to find out about Su Miao before. Everyone related to him is within the scope of my investigation. This Sheng Xia is like a white moonlight in the hearts of the Su Jing and Su Miao brothers. I’m sure I’m not mistaken.”

After hearing this, Yunxi's eyes flickered and she said:

"Interesting. It seems that the Su family patriarch will definitely have to make a trip there."

Bingli, being observant and perceptive, managed to grasp the meaning behind the words and transmitted her voice:

“That Feng Jiayun is related to you.”

The other person stated it as a statement, and Yunxi replied with a half-smile:
“Bing Li, you are the ‘know-it-all’ of the Spirit Realm, you should know what her relationship with me is, there’s no need to test her.”

After hearing this, Bingli chuckled and said:

"When you asked me to gather information, I also checked Feng Jiayun's background and learned that she was not a cultivator from this world. Since you specifically asked about her, and considering the Weiyu World's ascension to immortality, I had a guess. Then I investigated in that direction and actually found something. I didn't expect that she was your mother."

"Yes! It's just that our mother-daughter relationship is a bit shallow. She disappeared unexpectedly while exploring a cultivator's cave with her father. When her father came back, he told me that she had 'fallen.' I was only five years old at the time."

Although I retrieved her soul lamp from the Feng family's Soul Lamp Hall and learned that she had not perished, the soul lamp was still very weak due to the cross-realm transmigration. Knowing that she had not perished put my mind at ease. Whether we can meet again depends on luck.

The only thing I didn't expect was that after ascending to the Spirit Realm, the Soul Lamp could no longer guide my true self to find my mother. It wasn't until Su Miao came to my door that I learned my mother was in the Su family and had a new partner and child.

That is why I have been unable to find her whereabouts using the Soul Lamp.

Last time, my encounter with Su Miao ended badly, and I was thinking of visiting the Su family after dealing with the matters of the Medical Immortal Sect. Now it seems I have no choice but to go. I wonder if Sheng Xia has implanted the evil seeds into the bodies of other members of the Su family.”

Bingli rolled her eyes and said:

"Ranxi, I have a way to get this message to the Su family and have them come to see you. What do you think?"

After hearing this, Yunxi smiled and said:
"Good, now it's them begging me, instead of me insisting on going to the Su family."

"Hehe! Don't worry, I'll get this done for you."

Bingli was looking forward to seeing the excitement, so she sent the news back to the Su family shortly after returning to the Medical Immortal Sect with Yunxi.

At that time, Su Miao had already returned to the Su family's territory with a body full of injuries. The first thing he did was to see the Su family's patriarch and speak ill of Yun Xi. Then he turned around and went to see Feng Jiayun.

“Feng Jiayun, I went to bring your daughter to the Su family to reunite with you, but she not only didn't appreciate it, she also turned against me with swords and said she didn't want to see you again. I think you should stop trying to win her over with your kindness.”

Wei Yunxi is no longer a five-year-old child, and her cultivation level is now comparable to mine. She no longer needs your protection. You should focus your attention on Zisheng!
