Ye Ju glanced at Xuan Yuan Che. After saving the villagers, she knew that only he among the Xuan Yuan clan possessed cultivation. Karma, it turned out the cause was within her. The sorrow in her heart spread to every cell of her body. She had definitely lost her most important companion. Xuan Yuan Shen Jiang must have been in her missing memories.
"Fairy!" Xuan Yuan Che approached Ye Ju and bowed respectfully.
"I'll help you check your dantian. I don't know if I can fix it, but I have healing techniques that can help me see if there's anything wrong with your dantian." As the current Ye Ju, she remembered the Seven Guards of Ju Xuan Shen Zun, Ju Xuan's father, and others, but had no memory of anyone else.
Ye Ju activated her healing eyes and saw that Xuan Yuan Che actually had a lightning-element spiritual root. However, in a corner of his dantian, a dark substance as fine as a strand of hair was faintly entwined, a trace of demonic energy! httpδ:/m.kuAisugg.nět
Ye Ju's expression immediately turned serious. She tried to purify the trace of demonic energy with her white spiritual power. As soon as they touched, the demonic energy slyly dodged. At this moment, Xuan Yuan Che felt a pain in his dantian, as if someone had pulled his tendons.
Ye Ju immediately sent a stream of gentle green spiritual energy to Xuan Yuan Che, which was life energy to stabilize his dantian. The white spiritual power once again entwined with the trace of demonic energy, clearly, this white spiritual power could restrain and purify it.
The demonic energy struggled for a few moments before being purified and disappearing. Xuan Yuan Che felt a kind of restraint lifted from his body, and suddenly his cultivation could no longer be suppressed. It was as if a blockage had been cleared, and now it had suddenly opened, with spiritual power rushing into his dantian.
Ye Ju withdrew her spiritual power. She did not have lightning-element spiritual medicine, so she gave Xuan Yuan Che a pot of spirit spring water.
After thanking her, Xuan Yuan Che opened the pot and took a sip. The spirit water transformed into spiritual power, washing through his meridians. He immediately sat down to meditate; he was about to break through!
The Xuan Yuan clan leader watched this scene, touching his eyes. Finally, a promising descendant had emerged from the Xuan Yuan clan.
"Fairy, thank you for your great kindness!" Xuan Yuan Hong knelt down on both knees and kowtowed to Ye Ju.
Ye Ju flashed over and quickly pulled up the clan leader, who was prone to kneeling. She also took the opportunity to check him. She discovered that his dantian also contained a trace of demonic energy.
Ye Ju was startled, as if she had thought of something. She quickly pulled over another clan member's hand to explore it. This clan member also had it. This demonic creature absorbed the life force of ordinary people without spiritual power!
She quickly informed the clan leader of this discovery and asked him to gather everyone for an examination. This time, Ye Ju called Xiaobai to help. Fortunately, Xiaobai had been awakened by his father, the doting father, as soon as he entered the space. Long San was so angry he almost couldn't contain himself and wanted to crush that divine stone!
The examination results showed that only the Xuan Yuan clan members had demonic energy. The women who married into the village did not. Fortunately, although the demonic creatures wanted to devour everyone, they were being restrained by Taotie, so this trace of demonic energy could not control their minds; it only slowly absorbed life force and shortened their lifespan. Ordinary people in the Tian Chen Continent had a lifespan of two hundred years, and those with some cultivation lived even longer.
Ye Ju and Xiaobai worked for a day and a night, finally purifying all the demonic energy in the clan members. They also discovered that among the younger clan members, several had good cultivation talent. Ye Ju gave them spirit spring water to wash their meridians and strengthen their bones.
After finishing, they were eating delicious food made by the Xuan Yuan clan members. Xiaobai exclaimed that now they could enjoy good food without having to sneak away at any moment. Steward Zhu and the others had also woken up and were feasting around the table! Following the fairy, they were always greedy for food, which was truly joyful!
Ye Ju threw the divine stone back into the space. She couldn't deal with this divine stone right now. Taotie and the demonic creature's souls were intertwined. Otherwise, even the resurrection technique would release the demonic creature. She asked Long San to think of a way to see if they could revive only Taotie and continue to seal the demonic creature.
The village, damaged by snow beasts, was still being rebuilt. With nothing else to do, Ye Ju rode Xiaobai to tour the entire village. She discovered that the village was backed by a large mountain and relied on hunting for a living. Thinking that these were the descendants of Xuan Yuan Shen Jiang, she decided to help them.
Ye Ju helped them build a ten-meter-high city wall with a four-meter-thick base using earth spiritual power, encircling the entire village and surrounding land. She reinforced it with formations. Even if they were attacked in the future, after the barrier was broken, there would still be a defensive layer, making it safer. She also taught the villagers to dig traps around the wall, with sharp wooden stakes inserted at the bottom. It was a pity that there was no river in this village; the drinking water was mostly from mountain springs, otherwise, they could have dug a moat.
She also located the underground water sources and taught the villagers how to dig wells to prevent the water source from being controlled if they were attacked by enemies. Then she had Ayou teach the villagers to plant in the open spaces in the village. Although it was winter now, spring was not far away. Once the snow melted, they could start cultivating. Now they could plant some vegetables that could survive the winter, and then build straw sheds over the vegetable patches to keep them warm, so they could eat vegetables even in winter. Ayou also gave them some spiritual medicine seeds and taught some of the villagers who knew a bit about herbal medicine about their effects, including some simple methods for first aid for external injuries. Even if they didn't understand medical treatment, they could effectively stop the bleeding.
Clan leader Xuan Yuan Hong followed behind Ye Ju, wiping away grateful tears from the corners of his eyes from time to time. Their Xuan Yuan clan had finally waited for their divine maiden. Although the fairy denied it, he and the clan were grateful; she was the divine maiden recognized by their clan. Only Ye Xianzi had such benevolence. Cultivators had visited their village before, but those people were aloof, bossing them around and showing off their power before leaving. If they accidentally saw spiritual plants being dug up, it would directly lead to murder and robbery. Xuan Yuan He's father at the village entrance was killed like an ant.
For those in the village who could not cultivate, Steward Zhu compiled a set of martial arts techniques. This set of martial arts was created by an elder from the Chaotian Immortal Sect, said to be for his younger brother who could not cultivate. It was said that if this martial art was cultivated to its extreme, one could enter the realm through martial arts. For those who could cultivate, she also gifted them the cultivation method for guiding qi into the body. The Xuan Yuan clan's cultivation methods were lost during several relocations of the clan. Only the Divine Grace Record was personally preserved by the clan leader, thus it was not lost.
"Teach a man to fish, don't give him a fish!" This was a principle Ye Ju learned in Huaxia. After doing what she felt she should do, Ye Ju decided to leave the day after Xuan Yuan Che finished meditating and successfully passed his tribulation.
Unexpectedly, Xuan Yuan Che and Xue Niang decided to follow Ye Ju. Since the fairy was the divine maiden, and their ancestors were under the divine maiden, they had to inherit the will of their ancestors. The Xuan Yuan clan felt ashamed that their entire village had only produced one promising descendant, bringing shame to their ancestors!
Ye Ju looked at the old and young people sending them off in the village. Their gazes were filled with simplicity and hope. She accepted Xuan Yuan Che and his wife, and they made vows to the heavens. The flying ship slowly departed from above the village, leaving this village that caused Ye Ju's heart pain. Ye Ju did not know what she would face, but now she was full of courage. Her companions were increasing, and the way they looked at her was so firm; what did she have to fear!
She stood on the bow of the ship in a daze. What kind of existence was the former Ju Xuan, the former herself? How could she have gained so much support from so many people...
