Chapter 829 Entering Qingyun 6
After Chao Xi left, Ji Bozai couldn't help but cough several times before staggering to his feet and leaving.
He knew that his so-called repayment was not sincere enough, but everything he had experienced in the Abyss made him afraid to trust anyone easily.
He was very grateful for Chao Xi's help. If he survived, he would definitely repay her if he had the ability to do so in the future.
But he actually sensed that this person was dangerous, having witnessed her invisibility when they were in the abyss.
This reminded Ji Bozai of something that felt off last time, and he couldn't help but wonder if this person had been to Shenyuan before.
What was she doing stealing Li Hentian's poison? She couldn't possibly be taking the poison herself, that would be poisoning someone else.
However, this doesn't mean we can completely define them as bad people. Things can't be generalized, and we shouldn't make judgments without knowing the whole story.
But he always had to be careful, since she could kill him with a single move.

Zhu Shui Ling Zhou
"Tear everything down here, build a backyard, plant flowers, trees, and shrubs, dig a lake to raise fish, and build a pavilion in the lake..."
Chao Xi was directing people in the Zhushui Palace to renovate her new residence.
Footsteps sounded behind her, and the person stopped beside her: "Sister, I've taken care of everything."
Upon hearing this, Chao Xi turned his head slightly, without asking how he had treated the people.
*
Since returning from the Polar Star Abyss three days ago, I have been casting the Heaven of Separation spell on Chao Heng, Chao Yu, Chao Xuan, and Chao Yan.
The news spread from Chao Yu the day after it happened.
He discovered that his spiritual veins were beginning to dry up, and he went mad, making a scene that everyone knew about.
At that time, Zhu Shui Ling Zhou was in chaos and war, and even the divine lord Chao Heng and several others could not keep it a secret.
Their suspicious behavior became apparent to everyone, and many people began to get restless.
Chao Xi wasn't in a hurry to take action; he was just waiting for the final outcome.
But to her surprise, on the third day, Chao Yuanhui came to her door and offered to do things for her.
That means he knew he did it; it's a bit surprising that he reacted so quickly.
I've only ever heard of protagonists having a halo, does this person also have a villain's halo?
Xiao Qi had already told her that Chao Yuan was indeed the major villain in the later stages of this world.
When faced with his self-recommendation, Chao Xi remembers his first question.
It was purely out of curiosity about how he knew: "Tell me what you know?"
Perhaps out of sincerity in seeking cooperation, Chao Yuan made an unexpected confession.
“Sister, I have people in Huayueye, and someone in Jixingyuan is using people to test medicine in Chenyuan. Although the news of Lihentian’s disappearance is well-hidden, those who are interested can still find out.”
Chao Xi raised an eyebrow. This younger brother wasn't as obedient as he seemed in the early stages; he just passively took beatings.
This makes more sense, given his villainous character: "So, you guessed it was me."
"My sister went to Huayueye that night, and it was also that night that Shenyuan lost Lihentian. In addition, my father and brothers were suddenly poisoned. The coincidences were too great, and that's why I made the connection."
After listening, Chao Xi applauded him.
Although she didn't deliberately try to conceal her movements, she was able to think of herself so quickly.
This shows that this younger brother, though cheap, still has many redeeming qualities.
"What is your purpose in working for me? Or rather, what do you want?"
She didn't simply think that because she had helped him a little earlier, he would be willing to serve her.
"I want to know if my sister has developed a spiritual vein?"
Chao Yuan chose to work for her for three reasons, one of which was that his sister had helped him before.
One reason is that this is the best option right now, and the other is out of his own selfish desire to generate a spiritual vein.
Seeing that he had gotten to the point, Chao Xi was finally satisfied.
Compared to those who say they don't want anything, but actually use a strategy of retreat to advance, they want more.
People who clearly state what they want are more suitable to work with.
"I understand what you mean. You can have what you want, but we'll have to see what your abilities are first."
She neither denied nor admitted whether she had spiritual veins; judging from her strength, everyone would assume she did.
That day, after taking back the Heavenly Sword, she used some to poison people, and took the rest into her spatial dimension that very night.
Out of curiosity, and hearing from others that the Yellow Millet Dream was difficult to refine, she took it and tried to refine the antidote.
It's not exactly an antidote, because her antidote pills could easily do the job of detoxifying.
Perhaps her herbs are not ordinary, but rather imbued with spiritual energy.
So she studied the Lihentian and actually refined a pill that could generate spiritual veins, which she named the Life-Generating Pill.
It's not the kind of life-giving elixir from the cultivation world that's full of vitality and can make plants grow; hers is simply able to generate spiritual veins.
It is certain that the recipe for the Life-Giving Pill is different from that of the Dream of the Yellow Millet in this world, but the effect is the same.
Upon hearing this, Chao Yuan's heart stirred slightly, and his excitement and joy were palpable.
"Thank you, sister. I will definitely not let you down."
He knew what his sister wanted to do, and he knew what he should do. He had even thought about what he should do before he came.
It's perfect timing; he's suffered enough bullying over the years, and now he finally has a chance to stand up again.
Chao Yuan looked at Chao Xi with burning eyes; she was the one who could make his obsession come true.
He wanted to possess a spiritual vein and also wanted to participate in the Azure Cloud Assembly.
*
Returning to the present, she had no objection to how Chao Yuan dealt with his brothers.
Chao Heng had already killed her when he tried to take her down with him after he learned that she was the one who poisoned him with the Heaven of Separation.
The remaining brothers were all imprisoned, and he handed them all over to Chao Yuan.
He was only told one thing: nothing should go wrong; the rest was up to him.
As for the others, apart from the eldest princess who was already married, Chao Min and the ladies in the inner quarters were all confined to their quarters.
If they don't cause trouble and stay well-behaved, I can keep them in check.
Out of politeness, Chao Xi still asked, "Does your palace need to be renovated?"
Chao Yuan paused, not expecting that his sister didn't care about the outcome for their elder brother and the others, but was more concerned about this.
However, he didn't feel anything was wrong; in fact, he was quite happy: "Mine is fine, but I can also add some greenery."
He had just overheard her instructing people to prepare things, and thought that he could also add a few things to show his brotherly affection.
"Yes, just have someone get whatever you want."
After saying that, Chao Xi took out a jade bottle from her sleeve and handed it to him: "How about you represent Zhu Shui Ling Zhou and lead the team to participate in next year's Qingyun Conference? Any problems?"
"Is this the dream of wealth and glory?" Chao Yuan's eyes shone with visible joy as he stared intently at the jade bottle.
