Da Li Pills!
Still the Six-Flavor Da Li Pills.
This piqued Ji Mo's intense interest.
If it were before, he would have been indifferent to any so-called Da Li Pills, but ever since Moon Goddess mentioned his weak constitution, his perspective had changed.
A man should take good care of himself.
These nourishing pills were something he should consume more of; perhaps they would actually be effective.
Old Demon, carrying Ji Mo and the others, swooped down from the sky.
"Sir! It's my sir coming to save me, haha, you guys are going to get it."
Wang Wenjian's previously despairing face broke into a smile. As long as Mr. Ji was here, he wouldn't fear even if the sky fell.
The female ghost looked up, her eyes lighting up. Without a trace of fear, she was filled with excitement instead.
My heavens, three more robust pure Yang men have arrived!
Especially one of them, whose pure Yang aura was unimaginably dense. If she could sleep with him, she would undoubtedly ascend in a single step, becoming an immortal with ease.
She was ecstatic, so excited she could barely contain herself.
Then, she was gone.
Oli Ge acted decisively, raising his hand and firing a destructive beam that pierced the female ghost's chest.
In the past, he would have been a compassionate soul, but after meeting Xuan Yang, he seemed to have become stone-hearted.
Such a beautiful female ghost, he killed her without batting an eyelid.
"Alas, what a pity."
Xuan Yang and Old Demon sighed in unison as they saw the female ghost eliminated by Oli Ge.
Old Demon stared at the female ghost's curvaceous, fiery figure, secretly swallowing his saliva. He felt it was too wasteful for such a beautiful female ghost to be killed.
Xuan Yang, on the other hand, knew that this female ghost held a significant position among the ghost race and might be able to extract valuable intelligence from her.
Oli Ge, unaware of the underlying reasons, felt inexplicably annoyed upon hearing Xuan Yang say "what a pity." Thus, he fired another destructive beam, reducing the female ghost to ashes.
Following that, he unleashed his anger upon the surrounding ghost race, going on a killing spree.
The terrifying destructive rays almost leveled the primitive forest.
"Are you alright?"
Ji Mo landed and quickly walked towards Wang Wenjian, his face filled with deep concern.
Wang Wenjian was deeply moved. Mr. Ji was actually concerned about him; it was so heartwarming.
His eyes welled up, and his nose felt a sting. He choked out, "Sir, I'm fine, not hurt at all."
As he spoke, he forcibly swallowed the blood surging in his mouth, fearing that Ji Mo would worry about his injuries.
"Who cares if you're alright? I'm asking if the Da Li Pills that honored me have any problems."
Ji Mo was very blunt, reaching out to ask for the Six-Flavor Da Li Pills.
It wasn't that he didn't care about Wang Wenjian, but he believed that as long as a person could stand, there was no major issue.
Even if they were lying down, as long as they could still breathe, he was confident he could save them, hence his lack of concern for Wang Wenjian's condition.
"Da Li Pills?"
Wang Wenjian's mouth twitched. So, he had gotten excited for nothing.
He felt a pang of disappointment and dejection. He took out the Six-Flavor Da Li Pills he had prepared for Ji Mo from his spatial ring.
Ji Mo nodded in satisfaction, then took out a large handful of ninth-grade spirit pills and stuffed them into Wang Wenjian's hand, telling him to heal himself.
He, however, avoided the crowd and began to test whether the Da Li Pills were effective.
"Alas, I'm truly shallow. Just now, I thought Mr. Ji was cold-hearted and didn't care about his student's injuries. It turns out he's just reserved and loves deeply."
Old Demon stared at the large handful of ninth-grade spirit pills in Wang Wenjian's hand, his eyes widening.
To treat his student so generously, such a good teacher was impossible to find even with a lantern.
How enviable!
"So that's how it is!"
Wang Wenjian's face was filled with shame. "I'm truly worthless. I almost misunderstood Mr. Ji just now. In the future, I will find more and better Da Li Pills for Mr. to repay his kindness."
Ning Wenjing couldn't help but ask weakly, "Um, what are Da Li Pills used for?"
"Kidney tonics!"
Old Demon explained, then sighed, "Alas, I didn't expect Mr. Ji to have kidney deficiency at such a young age."
"Ah?!"
Ning Wenjing exclaimed, then her eyes widened in realization.
No wonder the big swindler had always ignored her advances and kept his distance. She had initially thought he had poor emotional intelligence and didn't understand her feelings, but it turned out he was physically incapable, which was why he wasn't interested in her.
This wouldn't do. It seemed she would have to find some folk remedies to nourish his body in the future.
Ning Wenjing secretly resolved to help Ji Mo recover, making him vigorous and lively, and thus interested in her.
Xuan Yang said with concern, "Sir's heart is filled with the world, and he worries about the common people, expending too much thought and energy. In the future, I will dedicate myself to the art of tea, learning all sorts of goji berry teas, and I must help Sir regain his manly vigor."
Everyone found their future life goals and was full of drive.
Ji Mo walked out from the shadows, dejected and in low spirits.
He had eaten seven Da Li Pills, each the size of an egg, in one go, but he seemed to feel nothing.
"It seems Mr. Ji is unusually weak; even such potent Da Li Pills have no effect."
Wang Wenjian secretly shook his head. He had personally tested the efficacy before; just a tenth of a pill had made him feel hot-blooded, almost unable to control himself, and wanting to go to a brothel.
Yet now, seven Da Li Pills consumed by Mr. at once had no effect.
"It's alright, it's really okay if you're not capable at all, I don't mind."
Ning Wenjing kindly stepped forward to comfort him, telling Ji Mo not to dwell on it and to let it go.
At first, Ji Mo was bewildered, but then he saw the indescribable gazes of the people around him and immediately became agitated, retorting, "What do you mean not capable? I am very capable."
"Yes, yes, Sir is the most capable, pissing three feet against the wind."
"I can attest to that, Sir draws maps every night."
Wang Wenjian and Xuan Yang lied with serious expressions, to save Ji Mo's face.
Ji Mo's face immediately turned black. Are you guys sick? Who the hell draws maps every night for no reason?
He couldn't be bothered to explain, fearing it would only make things worse. He could only put on a stern face and continue searching for people.
...
On the peak of a giant mountain near the Ghost Realm Gate.
The four great leaders of the ghost race gathered to discuss.
A golden skeleton, three zhang tall, was cast entirely from what seemed like immortal gold, emitting dazzling light.
A vampire with a green face and fangs, its monstrous flesh wings occasionally flapping, stirred up gusts of wind that easily sliced nearby boulders into dust.
There was also a ghost, indescribable, surrounded by countless wisps of ghostly energy. The area it occupied was devoid of life, and the surrounding plants and trees turned ashen, losing all vitality.
But the most terrifying was a ball of ghost fire, no bigger than a fist, floating quietly in the air. However, it was clear that anything that approached within three feet of it was incinerated into ashes.
On the surface, the Ghost Realm was ruled by the Female Supreme, but in reality, it was these four who truly controlled it.
Back then, White Emperor stole the Female Supreme's true body, her shattered heart, thereby forcing her to submit.
This incident gave these four audacious individuals an opportunity. They colluded and banded together to obtain the Female Supreme's heart, thus forcing her to submit.
The golden skeleton spoke, its voice as grating as knives scraping glass, saying with some worry, "That woman has also entered the Xuan Ling Realm. Could she be plotting in secret, intending to reclaim her heart?"
The woman he spoke of referred to the Female Supreme.
"You're overthinking it. She doesn't know who is currently guarding that heart, or if it has been brought to the Xuan Ling Realm."
The vampire's voice was chilling as it negated this speculation.
The main reason was that they had reached an agreement with the Female Supreme: as long as she didn't take drastic action, they could coexist peacefully. Since there was no conflict between them, the Female Supreme wouldn't risk falling out.
"We still need to be vigilant and closely monitor her movements. If she manages to reclaim the heart, we will all be finished."
The ghost's voice carried a hint of solemnity because it was currently guarding the heart, sealed in a special vessel, and it had indeed been brought from the Ghost Realm to the Xuan Ling Realm.
It was unsure if the Female Supreme had a special method to sense the heart's whereabouts, so constant vigilance was necessary.
"How about we disregard all consequences and nip it in the bud, to avoid future troubles."
The ghost fire was eerie and terrifying, exuding a strong killing intent.
However, this decision was not unanimously approved. Even with the Female Supreme's heart in their possession, they were not confident they could withstand the Female Supreme's desperate retaliation.
If they were unlucky, one or two might be buried with her. They dared not gamble.
As they were deliberating, a dark figure, merged with the night, silently approached.
