Chapter 55: Heaven and Earth Inverted

  ……

  "Brush brush brush" the bright and mysterious energy suddenly appeared like lightning at the horizon, dancing out countless rays of light, splitting apart the heavy black mass, shattering it into powder that could no longer condense.

  Under the illumination of light, where is the existence of darkness? The mysterious energy of light is extremely strong and extremely yang, the fierce sun shines brightly, the black air screams and trembles, struggling and retreating step by step, disappearing like smoke and clouds.

  As the dark energy dissipated, the radiant mystic energy carrying the potent healing properties of the green liquid surged wave after wave into Qu Tianyu's body. Like ice and snow that cannot withstand the breath of spring, the warm sunlight melted and dissolved it, transforming it into water droplets that flowed down, gathering into a clear stream that nourished and restored the functions of life.

  Suddenly, Tian Yao's body trembled slightly, and the black air on her face changed, slowly dispersing and turning white as snow. Her eyelashes, like butterfly wings, shook violently, and her consciousness gradually cleared. Her entire body felt weak and numb, as if she had just walked through a fiery hell. The dark energy that shrouded her body and mind was replaced by a thread of light.

  Chen Mo's forehead was dripping with sweat, and he continued to squeeze out the small buds.

  Two tender buds unfolded, no longer oozing green liquid, looking like they were saying: "Go ahead and squeeze, if you can get anything out, that's your skill."

  Chen Mo's breathing became heavy, and he regretted that his resources were too scarce to promote the growth of the small green sprout. His cultivation was not enough, and there was not enough bright Xuan Qi. Then he exhaled a mouthful of turbid air, and the bright Xuan Qi extinguished the black air. Qu Tian Yao's life should be unharmed now, and he let out a slight sigh of relief.

  Leaning on Mo Li's body, Qu Tianyao reminded her to break free from the dark shackles and finally opened her eyes. She felt a languidness all over her body, as if she was soaking in a warm pool of water, with the cool and gentle breath of the water caressing her entire body.

  Qu Tianyao opened her eyes, which were clearly black and white, with a hint of confusion, staring at Chen Mo's hair, which was wet with sweat. Was it this person who saved herself? There was a sweet, cool taste in her throat, similar to the pastries she usually ate, but it was stuck in her throat and hard to bear.

  Then black blood and green bean-like things spurted out together.

  "Ah!" Jasmine's heart almost jumped out of her throat as she saw this scene, and she let out a loud cry of shock.

  "Yao'er!" Qu Xinghe suddenly became furious and loudly shouted. Thinking that his daughter was in danger, he could no longer hold back, his sleeves fluttering wildly as he rushed in like a fierce gust of wind.

  A chill killing aura suddenly filled the entire scene.

  The little turtle's eyes bulged out, and without hesitation, it jumped up from the threshold and rushed in with a speed like the wind, making a "whooshing" sound as it frantically ran inside.

  Yan Zhiwu tilted his head and perked up his ears, listening for any movement inside, waiting for Chen Mo to let out a blood-curdling scream.

  Fang Yingzhuo gritted his teeth, still arrogant and proud, staring at the inside with his eyes fixed on it, hoping to hear that scream.

  He clasped his hands together and let out a sigh. He couldn't help but think to himself: "A young life, about to fall because of youthful recklessness."

  But unexpectedly inside it was eerily quiet, making people feel suffocated and frightened.

  Qu Tianyao's bedside, Qu Xinghe's raised palm, a fierce killing intent poured out, surrounding the silent Tianling above, life and death in an instant, frozen in time, destined to be splattered with blood on the spot.

  Death looms under the palm of one's hand.

  Chen Mo's face turned bright red, his cheeks bulging, his temples throbbing loudly, his heart racing like a drum, the radiant primordial energy inside him surging uncontrollably in his dantian, bursting upwards to resist that overwhelming force bearing down on him.

  Xuē Guī Xiao Ba patted on the bedside, contrary to his usual timid and weak self, he struggled with all fours to climb up, wanting to rescue Chen Mo and take the slap for him.

  Qu Xinghe's eyes, filled with a murderous aura, stared intently at Qu Tianya's open eyes and rotating eyeballs. Suddenly, he was taken aback by doubt - had his daughter really come back to life?

  "A low, hoarse cry of 'Dad' shook the earth."

  Qu Tianya's eyes were clear and bright, her urgent gaze fixed on Chen Mo. She weakly lifted her wrist and stroked the white temples of Qu Xinghe, letting Father understand that she had come back to life.

  He was suddenly enlightened, and his heart was violently stirred. Shocked, excited, and ecstatic, like a huge wave rising and falling, his heart was wildly tossed about. Emitting an almost frantic glow, as if he had obtained a glimmer of hope in a state of complete despair.

  Back from the dead, lost and found again, a sudden surprise. His heart skipped a beat, he suddenly looked at Chen Mo who was still struggling, and forcibly withdrew his hand that had been about to deliver the fatal blow.

  Returning from Guimen Pass, Chen Mo was panting, suppressing the surging Bright Mystical Qi, calming his racing heartbeat.

  Xuan Gui Xiao Ba saw the ban lifted, four legs together two feet, directly plunged into Chen Mo's arms. Head turned, turtle eyes stared angrily at Qu Xing He, as if scolding: "You bastard, you're burning bridges and biting the hand that fed you!"

  Qu Xinghe was so excited that tears streamed down his face, and he choked with sobs: "Yao'er, thank heaven, thank earth, you've finally made it through." Then he tightly grasped his daughter's shoulders again to confirm that this was real, a miracle had been born.

  Then he suddenly turned to the calm Chen Mo and said, "How did this kid do it? Is that Dan medicine really effective? Did I underestimate him?"

  Take another glance at the turtle that was generous and selfless just now, but is now resentful and glaring at Chen Mo. The daughter looked at Chen Mo with a warm and apologetic face. Thinking of almost killing him earlier, she felt embarrassed and her face turned red as she secretly celebrated, fortunately, one punch did not go down.

  "This and that, don't mind it, young man. Forgive an old man for being a bit partial to his daughter."

  For a time, heaven and earth were turned upside down.

  A beaded curtain swayed gently in the breeze.

  Yan Zhiwu rushed in at the sound, Zhang's mouth agape and motionless, shocked and terrified. Before him, Qu Tianyao's beautiful eyes fluttered open, her breathing gentle, her vitality restored, touching and moving, I saw that she was still lovely, where was there even a hint of death?

  Fang Ying Zhuo's eyes widened in shock and his arrogant demeanor was greatly diminished, his wide sleeves fluttering wildly. His eyes, like a vulture's, were cold and menacing, as if he wanted to tear Chen Mo into a thousand pieces. He had lost all face here.

  Hai Hao's eyes lit up, did a miracle really happen? Secretly admiring, this kid is indeed not simple!

  Ke Chen can remain silent at this time, expressionless, in the face of life and death, his mind is even more firm and unyielding, calm and stern. In reality, it's still that one's own strength is not enough, otherwise, who dares to treat oneself like this?

  Holding Xiaobao under the bed, seeing true feelings in life and death, Xiaobao, I'll return the turtle food that was just deducted from you.

  "Lord Qu, the thousand gold has survived, but her meridians are severely damaged. I need to continue consolidating treatment for her. Please, Lord Qu, grant me some time."

  "Alright, I'll follow Xuan Yuan's arrangements." Qu Xinghe's old face turned red with embarrassment as he bowed to Chen Mo and said: "Please forgive me, Xuan Yuan, I apologize to you."

  "Xuanyuan Gongzi, just now your words were rude, don't mind it. From now on I'll listen to you, whatever you want me to do is fine." Jasmine's excited tears fell down.

  What can be done? Chen Mo almost spat out a mouthful of old blood and hastily entered meditation.

  Jasmine gave a disdainful glance at Yan Zhiwu and the two of them, thinking to herself: "All talk and no action, just a pair of good-for-nothings."

  "I'll help the young lady get dressed, and the rest of you can leave." Jasmine gave a straightforward order to dismiss everyone, leaving Yan Zhiwu's face red with embarrassment.

  Qu Xinghe ignored them directly, if it weren't for Chen Mo, wouldn't his daughter have lost her soul?

  Yan Zhiwu's resentment and hatred reached an extreme, and he exchanged a glance with Fang Yingzhao. The two knew that if they waited any longer, they would only be making fools of themselves. He let out a cold laugh and withdrew. Who would have thought that in the end, it was all for nothing, not gaining anything good, but instead getting a nose full of dust. He glanced at Chen Mo with extremely venomous eyes.

  "What I said counts, as long as I have it, you can take it freely." Qu Xinghe felt guilty towards Chen Mo and wanted to give him more compensation.

  Chen Mo knew that he was short of money, and he urgently needed the medicine to nourish Xiao Neng's sprout, so he said bluntly: "Nothing else, just want to advance half of the reward."

  Such a small condition, Qu Xinghe should have agreed, a five-wan-liang gold ticket, shining brightly, is quite dazzling.

  At this moment, Chen Mo's weight in Qu Xinghe's heart was unprecedentedly high. This kid is not pleased with material things, has a noble temperament, and is extremely rare. With his talent, he can soar to great heights in no time, and also gave birth to the heart of loving talent.

  Qu Tianya remained silent, her eyes fixed on Chen Mo's face. His slightly pale complexion was offset by his bright and shining eyes, which sparkled like the morning sun. Chen Mo took the gold ticket without hesitation, stuffed it into his pocket, and chuckled as he said, "In that case, I'll take my leave for now. I'll come back in a few days to solidify things with Miss."

  This money was earned with a clear conscience.

  It's not suitable to stay here for long, let's leave immediately.

  Qu Tianya's eyes were slightly distracted as she gazed at Chen Mo's back, her beautiful eyes rolling over as if thinking of something.

  She gently pulled on the sleeve of Qu Xinghe's robe, a hint of shyness, like a peach blossom barely opening. She whispered softly in his ear: "Father, I'm afraid someone is not good for Master Xuan Yuan."

  A sharp glint flashed in Qu Xinghe's eyes, and with a wave of his hand, an old man suddenly appeared from the shadows, bowing respectfully before hurrying after Chen Mo.

  ……

  Inside the city of Zhongxuan, people's voices were in an uproar, some wine shops, tea houses, inns and stores were crowded with people.

  Chen Mo had just left the Qu Mansion and spent 50,000 taels of gold to directly exchange for a single fourth-grade spiritual elixir, "Tempering Spiritual Elixir", which was almost the best elixir that could be bought in Zhongyuan City, and there was only one available.

  If the gap between Lingtus and Lingshis is like a huge chasm, then the cultivation above Lingshi can be said to be a major mountain range, which is extremely difficult to cultivate. In addition to the necessary bitter practice, the resources consumed are also terrifying.

  Chen Mo walked carelessly on the streets of Xuanzhong City, the bustling and lively scenes on both sides of the street no longer caught his attention.

  "Xuanyuan brothers, indeed a doctor with a benevolent heart, as soon as they left the city master's mansion, they came to the pharmacy to prepare medicine. Such exquisite medical skills, I wonder who their predecessor is?"

  Yan Zhiwu, who had been waiting outside, saw Chen Mo step out of the pharmacy and could no longer hold back. He brought several men to block Chen Mo's way.

  "So it's you. What's going on?" Chen Mo gazed coldly at Yan Zhiwu, a hint of killing intent flashing rapidly in his dark eyes.
