...
One na after another, one mory after another.
They flowed through Luo Chen’s mind like water.
As he stopped at the door, looking at the coffins filling the hall, a verse he had heard in his past life erged in his heart.
"Worldly affairs surge like tides, people drift like water; only to lant how few return from the rivers and lakes."
This was the Luo Tian Creed’s most devastating loss in its history.
A war had taken away many of Luo Chen’s familiar friends and subordinates.
And all of this.
"Is thanks to the Fla Alliance!"
"The Zheng Family, Iron Sword Hall, Xiahou Family, these are just the interest."
"One day, I will see justice served!"
Luo Chen suddenly turned around, stepping out of the hall.
Unbeknownst to when, the outside of the hall had beco crowded with people.
Among them, a little old man stood at the doorway with two young people, conversing with Gu Caiyi.
When Luo Chen ca out, Gu Caiyi hurriedly approached.
"President, this is Mr. Yan; he is a Funeral Director, highly skilled at preparing and repairing the deceased."
Luo Chen nodded and walked up to the little old man.
"Mr. Yan, hello."
Mr. Yan, flattered, said, "The junior has seen Senior Dan Chenzi."
"Please take extra care later, to restore the appearance of these friends as best as you can. Ask for any materials you need, and the cultivators of the Luo Tian Creed will fully support you."
While speaking, Luo Chen took out several jade vials from his storage bag and handed them over to the man.
Those were a few Ascendant Grade Qi Nurturing Pills, very suitable for Late Stage Qi Refinent Cultivators.
"This really isn’t necessary, I’ve already received paynt."
Luo Chen gave a slight smile and firmly placed them in his hands.
Mr. Yan, sowhat embarrassedly, accepted the jade vials and then, with his two apprentices, entered the Side Hall.
This procession dealt with the dead.
So of their thods were startling, thus not quite suitable for public display.
The doors slowly closed.
Only then did Luo Chen have the ti to turn back and look at the assembly of cultivators outside the hall.
His gaze swept over them, most faces showing sorrow.
He took a deep breath and slowly said, "The dead are gone, dwelling on it too much can only harm you. Those who died in battle, I will give them a proper burial!"
"But the Luo Tian Creed is now in need of rebuilding, requiring everyone to unite and overco the current difficulties."
"These brothers and sisters died protecting the Luo Tian Creed, and I’m sure they wouldn’t want to see it weakened and declining."
"So..."
Luo Chen intended to say sothing to uplift everyone’s spirits.
But as he spoke, the words stuck in his throat, unable to continue.
So things, if you’re not the person involved, no matter how eloquently you speak, are actually useless.
He barely managed to nod to the crowd.
"Go about your tasks!"
After speaking, he left the Side Hall through the path opened by the crowd.
For a mont, standing among the people, he felt as if he were fleeing in a panic.
...
He arrived in the main hall of the Spirit dicine Hall.
The sounds of low groans and painful cries were unceasing.
About a dozen female disciples clad in white were moving about, constantly treating the wounded.
When Luo Chen arrived, Feng Xia hurried out to et him.
"How is the situation?"
"With two days of treatnt, the situation has stabilized. The materials we lack are being procured by others. What’s most needed now is an elixir called Evil Qi Cleansing Pill. Among the enemies, there are many associated with the Fla Alliance that fight using Earth Fire Evil Qi, and this substance is most troubleso to have lingering in the body," Feng Xia quickly explained.
Evil Qi Cleansing Pill?
Luo Chen thought for a mont and then took about a dozen jade vials from his storage bag.
"I have so here; take them for now. If it’s not enough, you can go to Qingdan Hall in the Immortal City; Pill Valley is very adept at making this elixir."
Feng Xia’s eyes lit up, and she imdiately accepted them.
Seeing her about to leave, Luo Chen called her back.
"How is Duan Feng from your family doing?"
Feng Xia smiled, "Sun Shengshou has seen him. It’s just exhaustion that led to unconsciousness; he’ll recover after so rest."
Luo Chen grunted in acknowledgnt, his gaze settling on two won.
He quietly approached.
"I’ve seen Sun Shengshou."
The elderly woman looked up, surprised.
"Friend Dan Chenzi?"
"Indeed, it’s ," Luo Chen said, introducing himself, then looked at Murong Qinglian with concern, "How is my sister-in-law’s injury?"
Under his gaze, Murong Qinglian showed so response.
However, her expression was still sowhat vacant, as if she was lost in so emotion and had yet to erge from it.
Sun Shengshou shook her head, "The injury itself isn’t severe, but her right palm has been reduced to powder; simple tallic and stony techniques cannot heal it. She’ll require a corresponding limb reattachnt thod."
Powerful Demon Beasts are known for regenerating limbs and being nearly indestructible.
But for Human Cultivators, this is much harder to accomplish.
Especially once the limb is gone, one must use a different kind of limb reattachnt thod.
Luo Chen thought for a mont, "I have seen the Golden Silkworm Continuation Technique of Yu Ding Sword Sect, and I’ve also heard that there are many reattachnt thods in the Immortal Cultivation World. I wonder, Friend, do you know any?"
Sun Shengshou shook her head, "I do know of a reattachnt thod, but the materials required are of the Third Order and quite rare; I don’t have them at the mont."
This was the classic dilemma of a skilled cook without rice.
After asking about the materials, Luo Chen found out that they had already been inquired about by the Luo Tian Creed.
The answer was no.
"For now, I can only make a simple prosthetic hand for Murong Daoyou with relatively lower rank materials, to help her in daily life. As for the future, either gather the materials I need, or it would be best to ask a master from Yu Ding Sword Sect to treat her."
