"As long as my little fairy is happy to marry me, I don't care if my face is ruined."
"You shouldn't be disfigured now, you should die."
A voice interrupted the scene, and the boy turned his head and his eyes instantly lit up with hope.
At this moment, Su Ying and the others also arrived from a distance.
"Mr. Li, please save the fairy. I, Xiaoyuer, am willing to do anything to repay your kindness."
Little Fish kept kowtowing to Li Chengqian, using so much force that the ground was stained red after only a few kowtows.
Looking at the scene before him, Li Chengqian's face remained expressionless.
After several dozen breaths, Xiaoyuer's forehead was already bruised and raw.
"Get up. Take Murong Xian back to the place where you used to catch fireflies together."
Upon hearing Li Chengqian's words, hope shone in everyone's eyes.
At night, the moon shines as brightly as day.
Murong Xian and Xiaoyuer, dressed in red, came to Li Chengqian, although Murong Xian still looked old.
But no one was too discouraged.
Because there is the Sword Immortal of Peace here. He is a god, he is omnipotent, and he will definitely be able to save Murong Xian.
Little Fish's face was filled with hope. Everyone said that Mr. Li was a god, and he would surely use his divine power to save the little fairy.
Looking into Xiaoyuer's eyes, Li Chengqian took something out of his pocket and placed it on the altar.
This was prepared for Xiaoyuer and his wife's wedding.
"Mr. Li, is this the elixir to cure the little fairy?"
Little Fish was excited to go forward and touch that thing, but he was afraid that he would be clumsy and do something wrong.
Helpless, he could only wait for Mr. Li's explanation.
"This thing is called the Epiphyllum oxypetalum, and I specifically asked Miss Su for it."
"Old women can regain their youthful appearance after eating it, but they can only live for one day and one night."
"Given Murong Xian's condition, she will only live for the time it takes for an incense stick to burn after consuming it."
Upon hearing Li Chengqian's words, Xiaoyuer's expression gradually froze.
He pulled Murong Xian back slowly, shaking his head with a smile as he said, "Mr. Li, don't joke around, this is clearly poison."
"This isn't saving lives, this is murder."
Looking up into Xiaoyuer's eyes, Li Chengqian calmly said, "I never said I could save Murong Xian."
Upon hearing this, Little Fish broke down.
He tried to confront Li Chengqian, but Li Chengqian slapped him to the ground.
A trickle of blood spilled from his mouth, and a distinct five-palm mark appeared on his face.
But Xiaoyuer didn't care at all, and instead said somewhat mysteriously, "Mr. Li, you always love to joke around."
"Hurry up and give me the elixir, and I'll give you my life."
"I'm sorry, even if you gave me your life, I still couldn't save Murong Xian."
"Why? Why couldn't you save her? Are you a god?!"
"You are all-powerful."
"boom!"
Xiao Yu'er was sent flying by Li Chengqian's true energy, while Murong Xian was gently transported to Su Ying and the others by a stream of true energy.
"Killing is easy, saving lives is difficult. Do you know why I don't kill easily?"
"It's not that I can't kill people, it's that I don't want to kill people. Do you know that even gods are sometimes helpless?"
Little Fish stumbled and crawled to Li Chengqian's feet.
"Mr. Li, you can hit me however you want, you can even kill me, please save the fairy."
Li Chengqian kicked Xiaoyuer away again and said coldly, "Xiaoyuer, I have told you more than once not to be reckless, why didn't you listen?"
“If you hadn’t taken Murong Xian on that adventure, she wouldn’t have had her inner strength drained by Liu Xi and become like this.”
"Who do you think you are? Do you think you can solve everything with your petty cleverness?"
"It's too late to regret it now!"
Faced with Li Chengqian's reprimand, Xiaoyuer became even more frantic.
He stood up and roared, "Did you know this day would come? Why didn't you tell me?!"
(chbb) "If I tell you, will you listen?"
"Even if I told you that Liu Xi would kill Murong Xian, given your personality, Xiaoyuer, you would still take Murong Xian on an adventure."
"I(
Little Fish couldn't get the words out of his mouth.
Yes!
It was my fault that I harmed the little fairy. Even if Mr. Li explained everything, I would only feel that the plan was unsafe and then I would come up with a new one.
Seeing this, Hua Wuque couldn't help but speak up.
“Mr. Li, since you know everything, why don’t you stop these things from happening?”
Turning to look at Hua Wuque, who was equally grief-stricken, Li Chengqian's tone became even colder.
"Why should I stop all of this from happening? Who am I to you? Why should I pave the way for you?"
"When people encounter difficulties, they always like to pray to gods and Buddhas, hoping that the gods and Buddhas in heaven can clear away all obstacles for them at once."
"But they forgot that those gods and Buddhas were not related to them, so why should they help them?"
"Even if we help them, how will they repay us?"
"You always expect others to help you, but you don't realize that it's better to rely on yourself than to ask others for help."
"If Little Fish had listened to me even once, he wouldn't be in this predicament today."
"Evil Valley, Peace Inn, which of these two places did Liu Xi dare to come to?"
"Countless people regret taking the wrong path back then, and at a crucial moment, no one reminded them of a thing."
“I gave him so many chances, but he didn’t seize them once. Today’s outcome is entirely his own doing.”
Li Chengqian's words left Hua Wuque speechless, as did Tie Xinlan standing to the side.
Looking at everyone's expressions, and seeing Xiaoyuer's distraught appearance.
Li Chengqian ultimately softened his heart.
"Ugh!"
"I don't have a way to save them, I can only give you three choices."
After saying that, Li Chengqian took out three more items from his pocket.
These three items are a bean, a ceramic bottle, and a black blade of grass.
"First choice, Tianxiang Doukou."
"Eating Heavenly Fragrance Cardamom can heal any injury, but the person who eats it will be in a perpetual coma."
"He will only be able to wake up after taking the second pill, but he must take the third pill within a year, or he will surely die."
"There are only four Heavenly Fragrance Cardamoms in the entire world. Two of them have already been eaten, and the remaining one is also in his possession."
(This is a reminder of the reward for rescuing the little fish, just in case someone forgot.)
"This is the first option: you can be together for life, but she will become a living dead."
Upon hearing this, Murong Xian broke free from her restraints, ran to Li Chengqian, knelt down, and said, "Mr. Li, I don't want to become a living dead."
"I want to be with Xiaoyuer, even if it's just for a day."
Li Chengqian took a deep breath and slowly exhaled.
"Actually, even after consuming Tianxiang cardamom, there are other ways to awaken the patient; this is the second option."
Chapter 243 Meng Po Soup, Resurrection Grass, From Now On, We Are Strangers
There is a soup in the world called Meng Po Soup.
"This soup can counteract the medicinal effects of Tianxiang Douka, but those who drink Meng Po's soup will forget everything that happened before when they wake up."
Murong Xian released Li Chengqian's hand and stared blankly at him.
"Mr. Li, will you forget everything?"
Li Chengqian looked at Murong Xian calmly.
"Yes, you will forget everything. The moment you drink the Meng Po soup, you will be a different person."
"Will I ever fall in love with Xiaoyuer again?"
"You can get back together, but the person who falls in love with Xiaoyuer will no longer be you."
"It's just another person."
Hearing this, Xiaoyuer quickly staggered to Murong Xian's side and comforted her, "Don't be afraid, I will definitely make you like me again."
"Please don't leave me alone, okay?"
Murong Xian stroked Xiaoyuer's face, tears streaming down her face.
“Little Fish Egg, I don’t want to forget you. Mr. Li, we have a third option. Shall we listen to it together?”
Little Fish nodded frantically, his face filled with uncontrollable sorrow.
"Mr. Li, let's talk about the third option."
Li Chengqian pursed his lips and finally gave his third option.
"The only thing in the world that can undo the effects of Meng Po's soup is the resurrection herb."
