55: Deceiving the Master

The Elders had no intention of paying attention to Cang Qing. One by one, they flew away, leaving only the Third Elder, Meng Caihong, Ji Wuchang, and a few others.

Meng Caihong looked down at Cang Qing with a slight frown, then turned her gaze toward Ji Wuchang.

"Wuchang, are you certain she was originally a Water Spirit Physique and only ended up like this because someone framed her and forced her to consume a Fire-attribute spirit fruit?"

Meng Caihong actually trusted Ji Wuchang; otherwise, she wouldn't have stayed when he sent her a voice transmission earlier!

Ji Wuchang nodded and quickly spoke up, "Revered Master, didn't your Disciple visit Muye City last time? I happened to hear people discussing the affairs of the Cang family!"

"Out of curiosity, I made a special effort to inquire about it. I only remembered it today when I saw this Cang Qing!"

Hearing this, Meng Caihong nodded and said, "Alright, I have a handle on the situation. Let her keep kneeling for now; we'll see how sincere she is first!"

Ji Wuchang nodded and then hurriedly asked, "Revered Master, can a damaged Physique like hers be repaired?"

Meng Caihong gave a slight smile and replied, "Naturally it can, but it requires the consumption of Innate spiritual items."

"I happen to know that the Grand Elder has two portions of Imperial True Water. It is one of the Innate Spirit Waters. I will go and ask the Grand Elder for a portion!"

Upon hearing this, Ji Wuchang's eyes instantly lit up, and his breathing grew slightly heavy.

He needed that Imperial True Water as well.

Ji Wuchang wanted to refine his organs, which required Five Elements spiritual items. The Imperial True Water was not only useful for Cang Qing's Water Spirit Physique but also of great use to Ji Wuchang!

"Revered Master, your Disciple needs to collect Five Elements spiritual items to Cultivate a special Cultivation Technique. Could Revered Master also get the other portion of Imperial True Water from the Grand Elder?"

"Buying it with Spirit Stones is also fine; this is exceptionally important to me!"

Meng Caihong was slightly stunned by Ji Wuchang's words, a look of hesitation appearing on her face.

"You need Five Elements spiritual items? What do you have on hand right now?"

Ji Wuchang shook his head with a bitter smile and said, "Revered Master, to be honest, I have nothing at the moment!"

"This Cultivation Technique was passed to me by Senior Sister Miaoqing the night before she left. She told me not to rush into a Breakthrough to the Foundation Establishment realm!"

"If I can use the Cultivation Technique she gave me to temper my five viscera and six fu-organs, when I establish my foundation in the future, I will have the chance to condense nine dao platforms!"

After Ji Wuchang finished speaking, he muttered in his heart, "Revered Master, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to deceive you!"

He used Zhen Miaoqing as his excuse purely to ensure there was no way to verify his story!

Zhen Miaoqing had completely left the Changsheng Sect and would only return in a hundred years, so Revered Master had no way to check!

Moreover, mentioning the condensation of nine dao platforms would surely pique Revered Master's interest!

Sure enough, as soon as Ji Wuchang's voice fell, Meng Caihong's eyes instantly brightened, and her breathing became heavy!

She currently had three Foundation Establishment Disciples. An Kecin was the best, yet she only had five dao platforms, while the other two only had four!

If Ji Wuchang could truly condense nine dao platforms, his future achievements would be limitless, far surpassing her own!

"Wuchang, rest assured. Leave the matter of the Five Elements spiritual items to me. I will definitely find a way to get them for you."

"Do not tell anyone about Miaoqing passing you a Cultivation Technique, not even your Senior Brothers or Senior Sisters!"

"Otherwise, if word gets out, even the Sect Leader might come looking for you, and there will be endless trouble!"

Meng Caihong hurriedly warned Ji Wuchang, her expression solemn.

Hearing this, Ji Wuchang felt a slight pang of guilt in his heart.

In his past life, Ji Wuchang had heard that the relationship between the Eldest Senior Sister and the Sect Leader wasn't very good, likely related to the deceased Sect Leader's wife.

Now that Revered Master had specifically mentioned the Sect Leader, it served as indirect proof of that issue!

"Revered Master, rest assured. I won't tell anyone else besides you!"

Ji Wuchang quickly replied.

Meng Caihong nodded and then said, "We'll do as you said regarding this Cang Qing. I'll take those two back first, then head over to the Grand Elder's place!"

Ji Wuchang nodded immediately.

Meng Caihong was naturally a person of action. She used her spiritual power to lift the siblings, Wang Ye and Wang Ping, and headed back to Little Bamboo Peak.

Ji Wuchang simply found a random spot and closed his eyes to Cultivate!

Half a day passed in a flash, and Cang Qing remained kneeling there.

Her body was already weak, and after being exposed to the sun for most of the day, she was feeling dizzy and faint, yet she still stubbornly knelt there!

Just then, two Qi Refining Disciples walked up to Cang Qing and began to drive her away.

"You should leave. Kneeling is useless. If anyone could enter the Changsheng Sect just by kneeling, the sect would have been overcrowded long ago!"

"That's right, leave. If you keep kneeling, it'll be dark, and it will be very dangerous to head down the mountain then!"

Cang Qing looked at the two of them with a pale face and shook her head.

She was currently just an ordinary person. After being exposed to the sun for most of the day and sweating profusely, her lips had become dry and parched.

The two Qi Refining Disciples were also quite helpless. If it were a man, they would have already thrown him out.

Seeing that the timing was about right, Ji Wuchang flew over and landed in front of Cang Qing!

"Greetings, Senior Brother Ji!"

The two Qi Refining Disciples immediately cupped their hands in a respectful greeting upon seeing Ji Wuchang.

The match two days ago had made them realize the terrifying combat strength of this Senior Brother Ji. In their spare time over the last two days, he was the person they discussed the most!

"Junior Brothers, could you let me say a few words to her?"

Ji Wuchang spoke with a smile, his words calm and refreshing like a spring breeze!

The two Qi Refining Disciples nodded quickly, and one of them said, "Please, go ahead, Senior Brother Ji. We'll be on our way!"

After they finished speaking, they gave Ji Wuchang a polite bow and left.

Ji Wuchang looked at Cang Qing, and Cang Qing looked back at him.

Seeing the determination in her eyes, Ji Wuchang nodded inwardly.

On the path of immortality, although root bone is important, a firm conviction is even more vital!

Throughout history, how many people with excellent root bone have ultimately vanished into the vast crowd?

Ji Wuchang looked at Cang Qing and spoke calmly, "I am Ji Wuchang, a Disciple under the Third Elder of the Changsheng Sect."

"I can give you a chance and take you to see my Revered Master. As for whether my Revered Master will take an interest in you, that depends on your own fortune!"

Hearing Ji Wuchang's words, Cang Qing was overjoyed and quickly said to him, "Thank you, Senior Brother!"

Ji Wuchang waved his hand and then said, "Don't be so quick to thank me. First, let me ask you something."

"What is going on with your body? It's as if there are two forces battling inside!"

"You must answer this question truthfully, otherwise, I won't dare bring you before my Revered Master!"

Cang Qing was shocked that someone could see through the problem with her body, and her expression became much more solemn!
