Longevity Begins From Raising Disciples-Chapter 423 - 222: Earth Spiritual Object, White Fox Ancestral Land
Hee Qi sighed in grief, his expression complex.
He sat down on the ground, coughing incessantly, with each cough bringing dark red blood foam to spill from the corner of his mouth, clearly an injury to the root.
Seeing this, Chen Ye quickly took out a healing elixir from his Storage Bag and handed it over: "Brother Hee, take this pill first and stabilize your injuries before we talk."
After having killed Wei Shu, he had quite a few high-quality healing elixirs in his Storage Bag, including rare pills suitable for Foundation Establishment Cultivators.
Hee Qi was secretly shocked upon seeing this.
Despite being a Foundation Establishment Cultivator, he only reached Foundation Establishment after entering the Grotto Heaven.
Before that, he was merely a Loose Cultivator.
In other words, apart from having cultivation, he wasn’t like a Foundation Establishment Cultivator in any other aspect.
Naturally, he didn’t have any Second Tier healing elixirs.
"Thank you, Brother Chen!"
Hee Qi hurriedly swallowed the pill, regulated his breath for a moment, and only then did his ghastly pale complexion regain a hint of color. He began slowly,
"This matter... must be spoken of from three months ago."
Chen Ye listened attentively.
In fact, if analyzed in detail, Hee Qi was the catalyst that led him into the Grotto Heaven.
However, Chen Ye bore no resentment towards him.
Because others would simply find any excuse to incriminate him.
If it wasn’t Hee Qi colluding with Demon Cultivators, there would be other excuses in the future.
With Hee Qi’s explanation, Chen Ye roughly understood.
It turned out that when Hee Qi went to the Three Thousand Great Mountains, it was right at the time when the Grotto Heaven had just opened.
At that time, there was a huge influx of Loose Cultivators into the Grotto Heaven at the Three Thousand Great Mountains.
Unfortunately, until now, most of those Loose Cultivators have perished in the Grotto Heaven.
Only a few Cultivators survived.
However,
as the saying goes, fortune is where misfortune lies, the surviving Loose Cultivators were the top in their ranks.
A few people managed to turn adversity into blessings, attaining Foundation Establishment successfully!
Just, even with Foundation Establishment, there were still two Foundation Establishment Cultivators who perished in the Grotto Heaven.
The remaining Cultivators were scattered within the Nine-fold Golden Core Tao Stele, seeking fortunes or ways to escape.
"Hmm? You mean Luo Heng from the Jade Lizard Association also entered the Grotto Heaven?" Chen Ye showed surprise.
"Of course! The Jade Lizard Association has always been active in the Three Thousand Great Mountains. With the appearance of the Grotto Heaven there, how could Luo Heng resist it?"
Hee Qi spoke with a sense of envy, he continued,
"Moreover, this old guy is cautious and low-key, yet one of the few Foundation Establishment Cultivators among the people. Not only did he survive till now, but leveraging his cultivation, who knows how many Cultivators he has harmed, how many fortunes he has stolen!"
Having said that, Hee Qi immediately waved his hand:
"Roughly after that, my injuries are caused by conflicts with other Cultivators. I’m adjusting and resting temporarily, hoping Brother Chen can guard me during these moments."
Zhiwei silently glanced at her master, and the two exchanged glances, understanding each other completely.
Hee Qi was still intentionally hiding many things.
For instance, his relationship with the Demon Cultivators...
Chen Ye deliberately coughed: "Resting is not urgent for the time being, but why did that Ten Thousand Puppet Sect Cultivator call you a member of the Emotion Crossing Sect..."
"This..."
Hee Qi laughed dryly, looking at the pretty little girl behind Chen Ye, feeling conflicted inside.
He thought to himself he hadn’t offended Lu Zhiwei, so why was her gaze so cold as she looked at him?
Hee Qi scratched his head, pretending to be casual:
"Oh, that person had a grudge against me and deliberately framed me. Brother Chen, don’t believe his nonsense."
This fellow probably didn’t even know he was pulled into the Grotto Heaven because of him...
Chen Ye no longer concealed anything, he sighed heavily, looked at Hee Qi straight:
"Brother Hee, do you think why I, and Zhiwei, appear here?"
Hee Qi opened his mouth, slightly confused: "You protect your disciple very thoroughly, why enter this Grotto Heaven... honestly, I’m also puzzled."
Chen Ye silently protected his disciple, already prepared to take action.
If Hee Qi truly was a dog of the Demon Path, intending harm to his master and disciple.
Then Chen Ye had no choice but to forsake their friendship and resort to arms.
He explained how he was framed by the Wei Family, how he was accused of colluding with Demon Cultivators, and how ultimately he was discarded and thrown into the Grotto Heaven one by one, slowly and carefully.
"Chen... Brother Chen..."
Hee Qi’s complexion turned utterly pale, feeling his throat parched, unable to utter a word.
He hadn’t expected that he had already been exposed outside, almost unable to believe it,
"What’s going on... I clearly killed them all..."
Chen Ye shook his head: "Brother Hee, you were only a Loose Cultivator before, how could you be aware of Lingyin Sect’s methods? Lingyin Sect’s disciples all have Shadow Pearls with them; even if they perish, their images can be preserved. Even if you crush them into dust, Lingyin Sect Cultivators could go to the scene and use the Parent Pearl to restore the scene."
Of course, all this assumes the Parent Pearl still exists.
But the Parent Pearl is usually carried by Foundation Establishment Cultivators, given Hee Qi’s initial Foundation Establishment ability, clearly unable to kill the Foundation Establishment Guardians.
And Chen Ye had already killed Wei Shu and snatched the Parent Pearl, naturally with no worries.
"Shadow Pearl... Parent Pearl..."
Hee Qi repeated these words in a daze, suddenly clutching his hair, his eyes bloodshot,
"It’s over... completely over! My daughter... my daughter is still outside... they will find her... they will surely find her!"
If he had known, he would rather have died than join the Demon Cultivators!
"Brother Chen... I’m sorry! I harmed you!" Hee Qi raised his head, tears of regret flowing from his tiger-like eyes, "I harmed my daughter... I, Hee Qi... deserve to die a thousand times!"
After speaking, he suddenly raised his palm, about to fiercely strike down on his crown!
