Chapter 290
When Yu Xi learned that Su Xianyun and Gu An might have been in trouble, he immediately prepared to go to Fengya Pavilion with Zhong Xian and others.
Zun Jin originally wanted to settle the children first, but when he learned that someone was torturing people in Fengya Pavilion, he immediately handed the Shiyi Pearl to his subordinates such as Gong Yu, and asked them to send the children back safely. He decided to go to Fengya Pavilion with Yu Xi to take a look.
She didn't know before, but now that she knows someone is being tortured by the Immortal Sect, she can't just ignore it no matter what.
She was also very interested in the "medicine man" mentioned in the previous conversation between Xi and Zhong Xian.
She didn't know what a medicine man was, but just hearing the name, she was probably not a good person.
There were indeed many dark things hidden in the Immortal Sect that even she didn't know about.
"Yu Xi, you——"
She looked at Yu Xi who was sitting in Zhong Xian's arms, and was about to ask Yu Xi about the matter related to the medicine man. But just as she opened her mouth, Zhong Xian suddenly turned sideways, hugged Yu Xi out of her sight, and glared at her fiercely, as if he wanted to skin her alive.
Zun Jin:?
What are you doing? She hasn’t asked anything yet!
"elder brother!"
Yu Xi pulled Zhong Xian's hair.
Zhong Xian felt aggrieved, but she turned around anyway, but she still kept a distance of more than one meter from Zun Jin to prevent her from touching Yu Xi.
Zhong Xian now seriously suspects that Zun Jin and Nan Ling are coveting Xiao Xier and want to take her away in a sack!
Because he thinks so every day!
Zhong Xian was secretly harboring mean thoughts, while Yu Xi listened carefully to Zun Jin's questions about the medicine man.
Seeing that Zun Jin really wanted to know, Yu Xi thought about it and finally did not hide it:
"The Xuanxing Sect uses a special method to turn living people into medicine men. It's said that these medicine men have various benefits, can cure a variety of diseases and even improve cultivation. However, they lose their sense of pain and may also lose other perceptions..."
"Medicine man, how do you treat people?"
Zun Jin hesitated.
You can't be treating people like medicinal herbs, right?
As soon as Zun Jin finished speaking, before Yu Xi could respond, Ji Zhi stupidly poked his head over and pointed at himself and said:
"I'm the medicine man!"
Zun Jin was stunned. After listening to Yu Xi's description, she thought the medicine man in her mind had probably become an inhuman being that would be immersed in medicine, restricted in freedom and tortured.
But looking at Jizhi, he was no different from an ordinary person, and not the medicine man she had imagined.
Jizhi didn't know why Yu Xi and Zun Jin talked about medicine men, but he liked being mentioned by Yu Xi.
He excitedly joined Zun Jin and Yu Xi's conversation and continued:
"I can't see colors, I can't feel anything, and my body will grow back no matter how it's cut!"
While speaking, he held his head high, looking very proud.
My sister said that he is the most special!
Zun Jin was stunned. "...No matter how it's cut?"
Yu Xi didn't reply, but just touched Ji Zhi's head, as if coaxing a child, and said softly: "Okay, okay, we all know that the second brother is the most powerful."
Ji Zhi was happy and held Yu Xi's hand.
Although he didn't hug his sister before Zhong Xian, he held his sister's hand!
Zhong Xian glanced at him, feeling that he was an eyesore, and wanted to drive him away impatiently, but seeing that Yu Xi was also holding Ji Zhi's hand, he finally said nothing.
Zun Jin didn't say anything else after that.
This was also the first time that Nan Lingjun heard of the existence of medicine men. She couldn't help but look at Ji Zhi a few more times. She really couldn't imagine what it was like to feel nothing.
Back to the story, the Yuanshan Sect tortured living people, the Xuanxing Sect also tortured living people, and the Yaotian Sect even sacrificed living people. It certainly doesn't make sense to say that it is a coincidence. Could it be that such a cruel thing is hidden behind the five major immortal sects?
The more Nan Lingjun thought about it, the more creepy it became.
Just as they were about to reach Fengya Pavilion, Zun Jin suddenly spoke:
"Do you know? There is a secret realm hidden in the royal chamber of the human world."
Yu Xi tilted his head and shook it.
Zhong Xian seemed to be thinking about something and asked, "Are you talking about the secret realm that is said to be accessible only to the Human Emperor?"
Seeing that Zun Jin did not deny it, Zhong Xian lowered his head and explained to Yu Xi:
"This secret realm is said to have been created and left behind by the first great being to ascend tens of thousands of years ago. The entrance to the secret realm is specially restricted, making it impossible to find by human power. Even if the entire palace were dug deep, no trace would be found. Whether the Human Emperor can find the secret room depends entirely on fate. In any case, I heard that no Human Emperor had ever found this secret realm hundreds of years ago."
Yu Xi was curious and asked, "It feels like a secret place with many treasures hidden?"
Zun Jin didn't expect that Zhong Xian knew so much. She looked at Zhong Xian suspiciously, wondering if he had ever had contact with the royal family.
What Zhong Xian said is only known to the royal family.
But now is not the time to dwell on these things.
Zun Jin nodded and continued:
"There's no treasure, nothing worth exchanging for money... No, I mean, someone has been in there recently. There's only a sword and some records left behind by the ancients."
She paused, then continued, "People who came out of the secret realm told me that the writing on the wall records that nearly ten thousand years ago, there was a period of time of almost a hundred years known as the Era of the Two Heroes."
Yu Xi had heard Zun Jin talk about this before, and she had also heard the name "Shuangxia" in the Jiejie City.
Jizhi and Nanling were both confused.
Zhong Xian didn't respond, but judging by his expression, he seemed to know something about the two heroes.
He didn't know that Yu Xi had heard all this. Seeing Yu Xi blink, he thought she was curious and quickly told her everything he knew:
"During the era of the Twin Heroes, two cultivators appeared. They were very powerful and came from the same sect, sisters. At the time, no one was able to defeat them. No one in the three realms of immortals, demons, or humans dared to provoke them.
"But the era of the two heroes began abruptly and ended strangely. Two immortal sect cultivators, both unrivaled at the time, perished in just a few months. After that, the power gap between the immortal sects grew ever wider, ultimately resulting in the coexistence of the five major sects and countless smaller ones."
It was the first time that Yu Xi learned about the Twin Heroes in such detail. However, when Zhong Xian said that the two cultivators during the Twin Heroes period were sisters and that no one could defeat them at that time, she somehow thought of her mother.
My mother always mentions a senior sister who is no longer with us.
But if my mother and her senior sister are two heroes, then the time won’t match, right?
As far as the world knows now, my mother appeared a thousand years ago. Although no one knows where she learned from, she is extremely powerful and easily became the Demon Lord. The era of the two heroes lasted for nearly ten thousand years...
Yu Xi pondered for a moment, and then felt puzzled by Zun Jin's suggestion: "Zun Jin, why are you bringing this up now?"
Zun Jin wouldn't say this for no reason.
Zun Jin said, "At that time, the Human Emperor and one of the Twin Heroes were good friends. Later, the Human Emperor entered the secret realm and recorded that his friend was murdered, and the murderer had connections with several immortal sects."
When Zun Jin said this, Yu Xi suddenly understood and subconsciously continued:
"Yao Tian Sect's Fang Ming once said that sacrificing children can gain greater power. The Xuan Xing Sect's medicine men can also improve their cultivation. I'm afraid that the Yuanshan Sect's production of 'canvas' is also related to cultivation. From this perspective, the five major immortal sects must be shady."
"Are you trying to tell me what the person who killed one of the two heroes gave or taught to the five major sects that led to their current state?"
