Chapter 2410

"Ani should be awake for longer periods now, right?" Zhu Yanyi asked.

"Yes, she stays awake for about sixteen hours a day," Yan Aohan replied while working.

Zhu Yanyi played with Ani for a while, then fed her some Spirit Spring juice. Afterward, she watched as the baby lay down and fell asleep again.

Ani was very lazy. Normal babies roll over at three months and sit up at six. But Ani was almost seven months old. Except when drinking juice, she preferred lying down with her eyes closed, sleeping.

Seeing this, Zhu Yanyi twitched her mouth. It was speechless. Was a natural spiritual body also a lazy ghost?

Once Ani was asleep, Zhu Yanyi took out a soft couch and lay down to rest too.

When Yan Aohan finished his work, he turned around and saw mother and daughter both asleep. He smiled slightly. Although Zhu Yanyi looked normal now, because of her pregnancy, she could fall asleep whenever she wanted.

While Zhu Yanyi slept in the Underworld, Honglian was busy elsewhere.

Honglian and her team were not only buying various materials but also bringing craftsmen to build houses. The busyness kept Honglian on her feet constantly.

However, Honglian was happy. Perhaps because she had never been this busy before, she felt a joy in working.

A month later, Shi Haitao returned. Behind him walked a man—Zhuge Hongwen.

"This place feels different," Zhuge Hongwen said. Although he could not see, he could sense the different aura. The spiritual energy here seemed much richer.

"This is where we will build the Azure Sovereign Sect. However, construction hasn't started yet. Even the foundation walls are still being built," Shi Haitao said with a grin. "I’ll take you to the Suiyuan Pharmacy. The Sect Leader is there."

"Haitao, is it true? Can your Sect Leader really cure my blindness?" Zhuge Hongwen asked.

Shi Haitao smiled. "I don’t know. But you must have heard of Du Yuanlang."

"Of course. The genius of the Du family, who was crippled," Zhuge Hongwen said.

"That’s right. But he is healed now. His meridians were broken, and his dantian was destroyed. Yet our Sect Leader cured him. He has now reached the Immortal Cultivation stage," Shi Haitao answered.

"Moreover, if our Sect Leader didn’t have this ability, she would never have asked you to come. Although we value talent and hope you become our strategist, we know your character. Unless something truly moves you, you would never come out of seclusion."

A smile appeared on Zhuge Hongwen’s lips. Although his eyes had no focus, he looked like a celestial being descended to earth. "Haitao, rest assured. As long as you cure my eyes, I, Zhuge Hongwen, will willingly serve as the strategist for the Azure Sovereign Sect."

Shi Haitao led Zhuge Hongwen into the Suiyuan Pharmacy. As they entered, Zhu Yanyi sensed their arrival.

She appeared in the room of the Suiyuan Pharmacy and walked out.

At first sight of Zhuge Hongwen, she was indeed stunned.

Yes, stunned. Zhuge Hongwen was exceptionally handsome. His facial features were distinct, like carved stone. His angular face was unusually handsome. His black, straight hair, sharp eyebrows, and thin lips were striking. The corners of his eyes tilted slightly upward. Unfortunately, his eyes were lifeless. Even so, he was truly the epitome of a jade-like gentleman, unmatched in the world.

No wonder Shi Haitao and others said that if Zhuge Hongwen regained her sight, she would surpass the Four Young Masters of the Immortal Realm. In fact, Zhu Yanyi felt that even without sight, she would still surpass them.

"The immortal and spiritual energy here seems denser than outside," Zhuge Hongwen said gently.

"This is the Suiyuan Pharmacy," Shi Haitao said.

Seeing Zhu Yanyi come out, Shi Haitao quickly bowed. "Sect Leader."

Zhu Yanyi nodded slightly. "Haitao, you’ve worked hard on this trip."

"It is my duty," she replied. Then she turned to Zhuge Hongwen. "Hongwen, the person in front of you is Zhu Yanyi, the Sect Leader of the Azure Sovereign Sect."

"Sect Leader Zhu," Zhuge Hongwen said. "It is an honor to meet you."

Zhu Yanyi said calmly, "Let’s get to the point. I’ll examine your eyes first."

"Sect Leader Zhu, are you really confident you can cure my eyes?" Zhuge Hongwen asked.

Zhu Yanyi smiled faintly. "It’s not difficult. As everyone knows, I ascended from the lower realm. There was someone there who was blind, had her tongue cut out, and her legs broken. I cured her, and she lived until a natural death."

Zhuge Hongwen nodded slightly. "But immortal eyes are different from mortal eyes."

"The principle is the same. No matter your origin, you must first become human before becoming an immortal. And once you become an immortal, unless you choose otherwise, you appear to others as a human," Zhu Yanyi said calmly, walking over. "So, there is no need to distinguish between immortals and mortals. Come, let me check your pulse."

Hearing Zhu Yanyi’s words, Zhuge Hongwen did not argue further. She extended her left hand to her.

After checking her pulse, Zhu Yanyi said, "Your blindness was caused by extreme cold and heat stimulation. A gust of wind between the cold and heat made you go blind instantly, leaving you unable to see anything."

"Yes. Two hundred years ago, a friend and I explored a secret realm. We fell into a trap. When we fell, we realized the trap led to the junction of an extreme cold zone and an extreme heat zone. I could have avoided it, but someone betrayed me and hit me with a gust of wind. Then the cold and heat erupted, and I went blind," Zhuge Hongwen said calmly, recounting his experience.

"Actually, it was lucky you survived," Zhu Yanyi said faintly. "Places with extreme cold and heat are not for just anyone. Going there with others was seeking death."

"Sect Leader, can you cure it?" Shi Haitao asked concernedly.

"Yes," Zhu Yanyi said. "I will perform surgery on you. I will install a Spiritual Eye Power in your eyes. Using this power, I will immortalize your eyes, allowing you to see everything around you. However, these eyes have an electronic effect."

"What is an electronic effect?" Zhuge Hongwen asked curiously.

Zhu Yanyi coughed. "It’s nothing special. It means that when you look at things, data will automatically appear in your eyes. For example, if you look at a tree, it will automatically show the tree’s name, its uses, and its height."
