Mu Lian stared at the porcelain bottles lying on the roots then observed Bai Wenlan's already weakly drooping head near her front legs.
Although he had been given internal pills to other superior quality precious pills by Mu Haocun, Bai Wenlan's condition did not improve.
Mu Haocun had a thorough examination using his needle that resembled an acupuncture needle. It's just that the needles look like hair, very thin and shiny.
Unfortunately, when the needles had just entered Bai Wenlan's bloodstream, his condition decreased exponentially. So, Mu Haocun put his needles back into his box again.
"I really salute your persistence to be able to last this far," Mu Haocun shook his head.
Mu Haocun shuddered to imagine what it would be like to live in pain just by taking a breath!
Mu Haocun predicted Bai Wenlan to be in such misery for decades.
"Grandfather." said Mu Lian choked when he heard that Bai Wenlan had been in pain for decades.
"Sorry Grandpa didn't dare to give you more pills than you already gave. Lian'er knew that if pills were given to cultivators below the foundation formation level, they would be poisoned by not being able to decipher the pills within their bodies?" said Mu Haocun.
It meant that Bai Wenlan was injured to the point of causing her body condition to be on par with a foundation formation level cultivator.
Actually Bai Wenlan's cultivation level did not actually decrease to the equivalent of a foundation formation level cultivator. Bai Wenlan was still a high-level cultivator.
What Bai Wenlan experienced after being injured was that her mastery of chi as well as spiritual energy became so bad that her strength resembled a foundation formation level cultivator.
Fortunately, this swampy area (Bai Wenlan called it a pseudo-world) no longer depended on Bai Wenlan's cultivation level after it had been successfully created so that when Bai Wenlan's condition worsened, Bai Wenlan's condition worsened, the pseudo-world remains awake as it was when it was first created.
"It's okay. Don't blame yourself for not being able to save me. I already knew that my time was near, so I forced myself to destroy the array protecting the room from here," Bai Wenlan said weakly.
Although it did not improve, at least now Bai Wenlan was not in so much pain and her words could be heard by Mu Lian and Mu Haocun.
By speech
Bai Wenlan did so out of fear of leaving her own child. The birth rate of mythical creatures is very low. And to raise them to adulthood is no less difficult.
Baby mythical creatures need at least some precious treasures in order to grow into healthy adult mythical creatures.
"Mu Lian's. This is my selfish desire. Please, at least until my son is able to live independently and make a pseudo-world his," Bai Wenlan continued.
"I'll give you a gift as payment for having accepted my request,"
Mu Lian waited for Bai Wenlan to finish speaking then said,
"Why do you believe me? I'm just a chi condensing level cultivator..Are you actually asking grandfather for help as well?" mu Lian said confusedly.
Of course Mu Lian was going to help Bai Wenlan let alone Bai Wenlan having asked her nicely.
But Mu Lian did not have the confidence to raise a mythical creature. Raising pets never did.
"Haha. No, of course I'm asking you for help. Why did I choose you? Probably because I feel so comfortable around you.
Your grandfather has the same aura as you. So well, I think you guys are the right people to ask for help," Bai Wenlan said.
Bai Wenlan smiled looking at the two universal pearls before her. Two universe pearls in the same place was an incredible sight for him.
"Ukh, I'm sorry we had better end up here. Me, I want to spend time with my son. Come to me in three days, Mu Lian," Bai Wenlan said weakly.
Mu Lian and Mu Haocun said see you then immediately came out of the giant tree. Mu Lian followed Mu Haocun to where the pseudo world exit was.
At first Mu Lian saw nothing but as it turned out, the door was hidden under the black water.
When Mu Lian stood at the right location, the invisible style seemed to be pulling on her. Mu Lian also felt back the sensation as if she had been sucked into a pseudo-world.
A moment later, Mu Lian was stunned to see the surrounding scenery. Mu Lian had returned to the real world, precisely Mu Lian was standing inside the room.
But the situation in the room was terrible. All the furniture is sliding near the wall, leaving a very large and intricate circle array in the middle of the room.
Four bodies lying in several circles, clumps of organs that Mu Lian did not know what organs belonged to the animal and the most Mu Lian could not stand was the foul smell that made her eyes water.
"Ukh, is this the array that protects the room?" mu Lian said in a stifled voice.
"really. They are truly loyal followers. They sacrificed themselves to create an extremely powerful array. Hold your breath Lian'er, we better get out soon," Mu Haocun said. Mu Lian nodded.
"Oh wait, we have to bring the entrance of the pseudo-world," Mu Lian said as she turned and looked at the body of the man who was sitting with her eyes closed.
Bai Wenlan had once reminded Mu Lian to bring the entrance of the pseudo-world, continuing the duties of her fallen followers.
Mu Lian prayed for the man to calm his soul there before finally removing the ring made of *the purple tooth from the man's index finger.
...
Two days have passed. The events of that night would never be forgotten by Ling Zizhou as a reminder that Mu Lian's existence became irreplaceable for him. It was also for Master Yi, Meimei and Meng Zhi.
Meimei's identity is the council family in Zhongjian world. Meimei's mother is Qinglong and her father is a human. Meimei's eyes are greenish blue, which Qinglong has.
Mu Haocun and Master Yi who are now a kara because they all died in the great war six hundred years ago.
Mu Lian was shocked when she learned of the ages of Mu Haocun, Master Yi and Meng Zhi. Even Meng Zhi turned out to be the oldest among the three.
It turns out that the age of people in this world is long because their bodies are exposed to chi which is very abundant. The higher one's cultivation level, the longer their lifespan would be.
As long as the person successfully passed the 1001 ordeal of the sky, it is certain that the person has an age of up to hundreds of years.
Legendary creatures like Meng Zhi, even had a longer age than humans.
Mu Lian's age could now reach a hundred years if nothing bad happened to her. Mu Haocun and the others insisted that they would not let anything bad happen to Mu Lian.
This made Mu Lian feel sad. While he is alive, his mother, father, and brother will go ahead of him.
Yet Mu Lian could not drag on in grief as there were people who worried about her like Mu Haocun, Ling Zizhou, Master Yi, Meimei and Meng Zhi.
In another dimension Mu Lian had a family, but in this dimension, Mu Lian also had a family that loved her like her own.
Finally, Mu Lian could only continue her life in this world. Mu Lian was stunned. Somehow, Mu Lian could instantly choose to continue her life in this world.
Perhaps from the bottom of his heart, Mu Lian already knew that the chances of coming home were very small.
Moreover, Mu Lian had unknowingly found a comfortable feeling in her home on Earth when it was around Mu Haocun, Ling Zizhou, Master Yi, Meimei and Meng Zhi.
While Mu Lian was thinking of moving on, there was unwittingly the day that Mu Lian had to meet Bai Wenlan.
Even Mu Lian had to be reminded by Mu Haocun to prepare to meet Bai Wenlan. Sure enough, just after Mu Lian had changed her clothes in clean clothes, Mu Lian felt her body being sucked into the ring.
As usual, the blinding light caused Mu Lian's eyes to shut and when Mu Lian opened her eyes, Mu Lian was standing in the swamp.
Without wasting any time by observing the scenery around him, Mu Lian immediately headed for the giant tree.
There, Bai Wenlan was waiting for Mu Lian to arrive. The little one looked very sad, his ears pointed back, his head and wings were hollow and even his tail was placed just beside his body.
It seemed like Bai Wenlan had explained everything to the petite. And with the intelligence of a baby mythical creature, of course the tiny can understand the words of his mother.
As for Baize, Bai Wenlan looked thinner, her white feathers looked increasingly dull, there were large cracks on her horns and her wings were clumsyly folded on her back.
Only three days passed, but death came to Bai Wenlan so quickly that the marks on Bai Wenlan's body became more visible. Mu Lian stood with her head bowed in front of Bai Wenlan to keep Bai Wenlan feeling.
Other than staring at Bai Wenlan when she first passed through the large hole, Mu Lian's eyes never escaped from the roots she was treading on.
"Good day," said Mu Lian.
"Hmm, is it noon outside? I intend to call you sooner, but.oh sorry, the closer I get to my death, my emotions get more unbearable." Bai Wenlan said weakly.
Mu Lian did not say anything and waited for Bai Wenlan patiently. His head kept bowing.
"Mu Lian, nice to meet you. I leave my son, yes," Bai Wenlan said trying as casually as possible then continued after a long silence,
"Before I leave, may I know what you want?" bai Wenlan said.
This time Mu Lian looked at Bai Wenlan, because according to her premonition, if not now, Mu Lian would have missed the opportunity to look Bai Wenlan in the beautiful eyes for the last time.
"How hard I thought, my wish is to stay home, I mean not my home on Earth, I want a home so that my family in this world can live comfortably with me," mu Lian said hurriedly explaining as Bai Wenlan frowned.
Hearing Mu Lian's words, Bai Wenlan calmed back down and smiled very sincerely to Mu Lian.
"Thank you.." said Bai Wenlan as she continued inwardly,
"...because it's not greedy,"
His eyes now look unfocused. Even so, Bai Wenlan hugged and kissed the petite for a few moments which she felt was not enough as a parting gift for her.
Bai Wenlan then frowned, radiating fear as well as doubt in her blue stone eyes but after a long sigh, the two emotions immediately disappeared from her eyes.
"I'm Bai Wenlan, acknowledge Mu Lian and will grant her one wish. May she be a girl who can be useful to the whole world" Bai Wenlan said.
His voice grew increasingly smaller until finally Bai Wenlan breathed his last.
