Zhu Yanyi smiled at Yan Aohan. "Am I right?"
"Very much so," Yan Aohan replied with a smile. "The essence of the red spider lilies on the Yellow Springs has a calming effect on the spirit. That is why it is the main ingredient in Meng Po’s soup. Do you want to dig some up?"
"Yes, please," Zhu Yanyi said naturally. "I also want to take some Yellow Springs water, and a little bit of Wangchuan River water."
"Alright." Since the Underworld had these things, and Zhu Yanyi wanted them, she gave them to her.
Zhu Yanyi picked many red spider lilies first. Because they were plants from the Underworld, she dared not transplant them, so she only picked them. However, she dug them up with their roots intact.
Out of eight thousand li of red spider lilies, Zhu Yanyi picked only about a hundred plants. If she ran out, she could always ask Yan Aohan for more.
After picking the flowers, the two went to scoop some Yellow Springs water. Then they went to the Wangchuan River to collect some Wangchuan water. Zhu Yanyi was very curious about these strange things and planned to take them back for research.
Zhu Yanyi wandered around the Underworld for about five or six days. Then Yan Aohan led her away. Of course, there were many places in the Underworld that Zhu Yanyi had not yet visited. It was mainly because time was running out. If they delayed any longer, others might worry. Although they knew Zhu Yanyi would be safe with Yan Aohan.
Seeing Zhu Yanyi’s reluctant expression, a trace of tenderness appeared on Yan Aohan’s face. "You will have the chance to come again in the future."
"Mhm." This was undeniable. Zhu Yanyi knew it naturally. She looked seriously at Yan Aohan and said, "I just feel a little reluctant to leave. That is all."
After Zhu Yanyi said this, Yan Aohan smiled. Yes, it was just a little reluctance. But hearing it made him feel particularly comfortable.
It was because it was her home that she was reluctant to leave. Yan Aohan understood what Zhu Yanyi meant.
Yan Aohan led Zhu Yanyi back slowly. Of course, they first returned to the mountain where Zhan Diting was located.
Seeing Zhu Yanyi’s appearance, Zhan Diting was slightly stunned. "Little sister-in-law, what did you eat? You are almost at the mid-stage of Void Movement. Also, your whole aura has changed."
Zhu Yanyi smiled slightly but did not speak. Yan Aohan said directly, "Your sister-in-law was lucky. She met the Black Emperor."
"Boss, do you mean that Black Emperor?" Zhan Diting sucked in a breath and asked hurriedly.
"Who else in this world is called the Black Emperor?" Yan Aohan glanced at Zhan Diting with a weary look.
Zhan Diting sucked in another breath. "Little sister-in-law, what kind of luck is this? To meet the Supreme Black Emperor. He is the ancestor of gods."
"This good luck cannot be stopped by anyone," Zhu Yanyi said with a grin. "By the way, where are my senior brothers?"
"They went back together after Fairy Hongmei woke up," Zhan Diting answered.
"Oh." Zhu Yanyi acknowledged this. "What is wrong with my Senior Sister Hongmei’s body? Was the fusion with the Chaos Stone smooth?"
"It was quite smooth. Fairy Hongmei’s body itself is of the Chaos Constitution. So, fusing with the Chaos Stone was very smooth. It did not require special help at all. It just took a little longer.
After they came out, Fairy Hongmei remained in a coma for two days and two nights. After she woke up, she did not stay long and left. They said they had agreed on a time with their camp. If they did not return, they would worry. So they left first.
Anyway, they are not worried about you, because the Boss is here." Zhan Diting told Zhu Yanyi what she knew.
Zhu Yanyi nodded with a smile, then said, "Have the number of evil demons here been contained now?"
"Yes, they have basically been contained. However, evil demons still exist. It is unlikely to eradicate them completely. But the number of evil demons appearing each day now is different from before. The current number is significantly smaller. It may not be ten or twenty times less, but it is definitely five or six times less."
Zhan Diting seriously explained the current situation here.
Yan Aohan said to Zhu Yanyi, "Ani, when you return, tell the people in charge of your camp that the evil demons here are no longer important. In the future, people can come here regularly for training. It can now become a normal training ground for Linlang. However, situations in other planes need to be solved by themselves."
After hearing this, Zhu Yanyi understood Yan Aohan’s meaning. The unfortunate Shangmo Plane and Jingmei Plane had become like this. Although it was influenced by the demonic energy of the evil demons, since things had come to this, it showed that recovery would not be easy.
Zhu Yanyi nodded. "I will tell our Dean about this matter later. Let her notify everyone. I want to hide my merit and fame." After saying this, Zhu Yanyi made a funny face.
"Mhm, that is good. Your main task now is to study hard. Of course, you can also go for more training for a while. There are still many patients in these planes," Yan Aohan said with a smile.
Zhu Yanyi nodded. "I plan to do that too. But for now, I must study hard." She paused for a moment and said, "At least our Sage Academy should get started. We cannot have only seventeen people like this. It would be a joke if we told others."
Zhu Yanyi sighed. Although she did not mind the small number of students in the Sage Academy, it was unreasonable. Moreover, it was time for most students to return.
"By the way, little sister-in-law, I heard that Happiness Garden will attack Lucky Forest in a few days," Zhan Diting said.
"Happiness Garden allied with Dark Forest, right? Their attack on Lucky Forest was only a matter of time. But does Happiness Garden announcing the attack now mean there is a problem inside?" Zhu Yanyi asked curiously.
Zhan Diting gave Zhu Yanyi a thumbs up, then said, "Mainly because it is rumored that Great Shaman Bai has gone missing."
Lucky Forest could exist peacefully mainly because of Great Shaman Bai. If Great Shaman Bai really went missing, Lucky Forest would likely face a major war.
"Dark Forest only has this much ability," Yan Aohan sneered. "Seeing that Great Shaman Bai is not there, they want to deal with them." Then he said to Zhu Yanyi, "Ani, you need to go there. You must defeat Dark Forest."
Zhu Yanyi nodded. "Alright. Then I will return to the camp first. Once I confirm everything here is fine, I will lead people back to the academy. When things are mostly settled, I will go to Lucky Forest. But will there be enough time?"
Zhu Yanyi’s only worry was that time might not be enough. She had no other concerns.
