Chapter 101
Chapter 101 The Ginseng with Nine Souls
Hua Qiyue was a little embarrassed and paused, saying, “Yun Shimo, what should we do now?”
Yun Shimo refused to look at Hua Qiyue. Actually, he was afraid that there was something else in his eyes. Looking at his own body as well as Hua Qiyue’s, he sensed that his anima energies were becoming less.
“If our anima energy keeps decreasing and finally drying out, then it would be very difficult for us to recover the strenth we previously had,” Yun Shimo frowned and said.
At this moment, with a puffing sound, Hua Qiyue’s entire soul disappeared.
“Hua Qiyue!” Yun Shimo was shocked. Obviously, he had been holding Hua Qiyue’s hands tightly!
Yun Shimo lost his mind when the sudden change occurred to him. He crazily rushed to his original body, and what he had in his mind was endless anxiety and rage. According to history, only one phenomenon where the soul disappeared could explain Hua Qiyue’s unexpected disappearance—death!
In fact, Hua Qiyue was just a woman who had built up a relationship with him only because of a child.
Yun Shimo thought that he paid attention to her because she was a woman of legend who owned magic medicine.
He had been always thinking that he had no other feelings for Hua Qiyue. But right now, the axiety and fright in his heart told Yun Shimo that actually, that woman had won a place in his heart!
Yun Shimo couldn’t care about anything else and he roared, “Kill them—break down my soul!”
Entering his original body, Yun Shimo made the most powerful move by using the strong strenth from his soul, only to see a ball of blue light immediately expanding!
Every wisp of light, which was dispersed by that blue light, stuck into every white flower with its highest heat like thousands of murderous lights!
With popping sounds, wisps of anima energies scattered, coming from the flowers that inhaled them. The petals of these flowers quickly withered. However, all of a sudden, these flowers flew to the sky as if they had wings and they gathered together into a ball of the strongest white light, attacking Yun Shimo with a loud crash.
Bang…
After a thudding sound, the blue light and the white light collided with each other, causing the structured stone cottage to almost collapse!
When the lights disappeared, there appeared Yun Shimo, who was in white, standing at the center of the stone cottage with a trail of blood on the corners of his mouth.
He only felt his chest hurt and the weakening of his feet. Just now, he made the move risking his life in order to summon his soul. Generally, the Qi Art would consume huge amounts of spiritual energy. If he failed to summon his soul, the only thing he had to be faced with was death.
While Hua Qiyue’s original body was sitting there silently without any movement.
There rose a wisp of fright in Yun Shimo’s eyes. He squatted down and shook Hua Qiyue’s shoulders heavily, saying, “Hua Qiyue, what happened to you? Wake up, wake up…”
But there was another sound in his mind that talked to him, “Hua Qiyue has already died. Her soul has gone, do you still expect her to be alive?”
“Hua Qiyue, you still have to repay my kindness. Get up, now!” Yun Shimo roared furiously. Enraged, he transited the last anima energy in his body to Hua Qiyue’s.
However, her pale face still remained unchanged. Her thin lips slightly closed and her eyebrows lightly frowned. She slightly seemed to be in pain.
Yun Shimo gave it up helplessly and sat there, blankly. This was the first time in his life that he had had a sense of failure and felt his inner world empty.
He, Yun Shimo, was the most outstanding person when he was born and was gifted for Qi Art and medicine making!
He, Yun Shimo, had been sailing with the wind and had never been experienced great frustration since he was young! But at this moment, Yun Shimo felt that he was so useless, a loser!
Everything in his heart seemed to have been removed and nothing was left except a bottomless abyss…

Actually, Hua Qiyue went to the Mysterious World.
What Tianpi had said reminded her that there was no time for her, being in such an emergency. More importantly, she disappeared on purpose because she wanted to see Yun Shimo’s reaction.
But she couldn’t see the outside world after entering the Mysterious World, only to see that Tianpi stood there with great anger on his face, coldly looking at her.
“Master, who made you angry?”
“Except you, who else in this world will make me angry?” Tianpi snorted and his red vulgar hair fluttered with the breeze.
Hua Qiyue touched her nose and frowned, saying, “Master, why are you angry again? I came here, didn’t I? Although… the anima energies in my original body have almost been inhaled by those disgusting flowers…”
Tianpi sighed slightly and his face became a little serious.
“Master, tell me please, what on earth is it?”
“It?” Tianpi frowned and said reluctantly, “Anyway, it was a spirit animal more than ten thousand years old, but it had powerful spirit energy. Afterwards, it was cultivated and promoted to a spirit animal at a stage above deity level. Finally, it was conquered by a woman. Then, it was killed because it had a conflict with the Tribe of Evil.”
That was it? Hua Qiyue stared at Tianpi’s evil face. Why did she sense that he had kept many things secret?
“Is that all?”
“Of course, that’s all. Or what else do you want?” Tianpi snorted and answered unhappily.
“Master, there are many things you didn’t tell me, right? Never mind, I don’t need the details. Please tell me how to solve it, we’re almost unable to keep holding on!” Hua Qiyue thought of Yun Shimo who was still in the outside world. She was curious about his reaction.
“You don’t have spirit energy, but the Spirit Summoning Art that you’ve learned can be useful. After all, even I have never encountered that little thing before,” Tianpi said coldly.
Hua Qiyue halted for a while and she was a little depressed because she expected that Tianpi could tell her the solution.
After all, Tianpi was as old as the little thing in the outside world. In any case, he should know how to fix things, shouldn’t he?
“Master, do you really have no idea?”
Tianpi shook his head again. There was a ray of disappointment that skimmed over Hua Qiyue’s eyes. Tianpi picked a blade of grass depressedly and chewed it, then he looked at Hua Qiyue up and down secretly.
Hua Qiyue stood there and stared at the blue sky with a serious face. Her pretty face looked extremely cold because of her serious facial expression.
Tianpi halted. He seemed to have seen this facial expression before; it was so familiar.
“Since Master cannot figure it out, then I’ll leave.” When Hua Qiyue got back to reality, she realized that there was no time to stay any longer. So, she hurriedly walked to the ground nearby where the magic medicine grew and she picked several Long Red and the Ginseng with Nine Souls, then she flashed, disappeareing in front of Tianpi.
Tianpi halted for a while, and he heavily kicked the banyan beside him when he came back to reality, “How can I do it? How can I… How can I watch her getting injured… No, no… Did Yun Shimo solve the Desperate Flower Array?”
Tianpi leaned on the tree helplessly and closed eyes because he was tired.

When Hua Qiyue returned to her original body, Yun Shimo still sat opposite to her body with a wisp of grief skimming over his eyes.
Hua Qiyue opened her eyes and her moist beautiful eyes met with his dull black eyes. She slowly twitched her lips. This was the first time that she had seen such a facial expression on his face, she wasn’t familiar with it, making her feel very embarrassed and awkward!
Yun Shimo was astonished to see that the one who sat opposite to him opened her eyes and twitched her lips with embarrassment. He took a closer look at her, and yes, Hua Qiyue was awake!
Which meant, just now, this woman had seen his grieved facial expression as if he had lost his beloved!
Emm… He, Prince Nan, made a fool of himself like this for the first time.
Hua Qiyue lowered her eyelids and slightly opened her beautiful lips, blushing with shyness. Suddenly, she became as beautiful as an elf, her eyes exuding a sense of bashfulness.
She took out two ginsengs with nine souls from her arms.
Hua Qiyue gave one of them to Yun Shimo, saying, “Here, eat it. It can supply energy and anima energy to you. If you’re lucky, your power may be able to advance.”
Yun Shimo halted and took back his awkward facial expression, saying, “Where did you get this kind of ginseng?”
He had never seen this kind of blue ginseng, but it looked familiar to him. He thought for a while and realized that the book Yuan Ji Magic Medicine seemed to have recorded it. This kind of ginseng… seemed to be the Ginseng with Nine Souls?
The Ginseng with Nine Souls, also a kind of magic medicine, could promptly increase your anima energy. If you completely absorbed its essence, you may even be promoted.
According to Yuan Ji Magic Medicine, once upon a time, a Qi Artist took this kind of medicine and he got promoted by three levels successively, becoming the Qi Artist whose strenght was promoted with the most crazy speed in history.
“Don’t ask me where I got it, just eat,” Hua Qiyue said and handed the Ginseng with Nine Souls to him with a little fluster. At the same time, she realized that the white flowers on her body—eek!, had disappeared, and the stain on the ground disappeared, too. While those five huge stone walls shined with a kind of light blue light.
“You solved that disgusting flower array?”
Hua Qiyue asked in surprise.
“Humph, little girl, you call it disgusting flower array? That’s the Desperate Flower Array, okay? Humph, however, this young man is nice. He could solve the array that was created by me! Though he’s badly injured,” A cold voice answered Hua Qiyue.
Which meant, just now, Yun Shimo killed those flowers?
Hua Qiyue glanced at Yun Shimo, and this was the first time that she looked at him with approval.
Yun Shimo enjoyed her look, having a sweet feeling in his heart. He then took a bite of the Ginseng with Nine Souls which was wiped clean by him using his sleeve; suddenly, a stream of heat flowed rapidly speeding up in his body!
A stream of adequate and huge anima energy flowed in his Jing Mai (in Chinese Medicine, it means the passages through which vital energy circulates).
Hua Qiyue ate the Ginseng with Nine Souls and frowned, saying, “Did we pass it?”
“Little girl, thanks to this man, you and he have passed it, but there will be a third test which is also the most important one… Gee, the Ginseng with Nine Souls? Little girl, that is the magic medicine in the Age of Shen Nie, where did you get it?”
Whoosh, that little thing conldn’t help showing up in front of Hua Qiyue, stretching its claws and suddenly robbing the Ginseng with Nine Souls from Hua Qiyue’s hand!
Hua Qiyue was angry and stamped her feet, saying, “Hey, old-timer, that’s my food, do you still want it?”
The little thing stared at the Ginseng with Nine Souls bit by Hua Qiyue, and the look in his eyes changed, saying, “Great, that’s it! This is the Ginseng with Nine Souls! And it’s one of the highest grade. Little girl, where did you get it?”
“My Master gave it to me!” Hua Qiyue said angrily.
Yun Shimo’s face became severe, Master?
That was to say, things like Long Red were also from Hua Qiyue’s Master? Hua Qiyue used to have been the famous loser, yet legitimate daughter in Hua’s Mansion, but until not long ago, she suddenly transformed into a senior Qi Artist who had magic medicine. This change happened to her also surprised Yun Shimo very much.
