Chapter 125 Inspiring the Old Guy
boom!
A surge of intense heat rose from the Emperor's brother-in-law's body, and the blood hole between his eyebrows healed on its own in the next instant.
Swish.
Su Yun snatched back the dull Resurrection Feather and stuffed it into his sleeve.
It was only because Lianhe and the Imperial Uncle were both people without cultivation that they were able to use it twice in one day.
Once it's charged up, it can be used as a resurrection item again.
The emperor's brother-in-law still didn't understand what had happened: "Tell me, how do you plan to treat this?"
Su Yun shrugged: "It's cured. You can feel it for yourself if you don't believe me."
The Emperor's brother-in-law: "???"
He gave Su Yun a low score again in his mind, and the good impression he had just made was mostly ruined.
He has some courage, but he loves to talk big and make empty promises, which is unacceptable.
The emperor's brother-in-law frowned: "What a waste of time, Ah Hai, let's go back to the manor."
He originally wanted to chat with Su Yun more, or bring him back to the mansion so that his wife could also see this handsome young man.
My impression of it has been ruined, and I have absolutely no interest in it.
A servant rushed in and handed over a ritual cane: "Master, please take your time."
The emperor's brother-in-law picked up his cane and glanced at Su Yun with disappointment.
He took a step forward, then suddenly stopped, raising his hand suspiciously: "This is..."
He had been injured in his early years, which damaged his dantian and made him unable to cultivate.
Because he was unable to absorb spiritual energy, he was already incredibly old at only eighty years old.
The only way to slightly slow down aging is to hold more ritual implements to passively nourish the body.
Now, the Imperial Uncle has discovered that when he touches the spirit stone on his cane, it begins to absorb spiritual energy on its own!
The attendant asked in surprise, "Master, what's wrong with you...?"
The emperor's brother-in-law touched his lower abdomen and felt a sudden heat in this part of him that hadn't reacted for decades.
It seems... there really is spiritual energy being infused into it.
The meridians, silent for decades, began to flow in like a trickle of water from a dried-up riverbed.
It's very weak and not very useful.
But it was incredibly inspiring!
The emperor's brother-in-law turned around in surprise and glanced at Su Yun.
The child chuckled, "You felt it, didn't you?"
The emperor's brother-in-law was utterly shocked: "This kid... can he really cure it?"
But at this point, he couldn't care less about anything else.
Another old friend that hadn't responded for decades also began to show signs of life.
The attendant asked in confusion, "Master, what's wrong?"
The emperor's brother-in-law suddenly looked up: "Ah Hai, I think... I've recovered!"
The attendant's eyes widened: "How is this possible?! No, sir, I mean this is unbelievable!"
He was also very excited; after so many years of master-servant relationship, they were like family.
"Did this child do it?"
The attendant suddenly turned around and stared intently at Su Yun.
He didn't believe it, but who else could be here besides Su Yun?
The emperor's brother-in-law was filled with excitement, and years of pent-up frustration vanished.
He truly felt his spiritual energy recovering within his body, and his damaged essence was as complete as it had been in his youth.
If it weren't for the fact that this body was still old, the emperor's brother-in-law would have thought that he had returned to the past!
The emperor's brother-in-law looked at Su Yun, his earlier low score now crossed out in red.
The other party wasn't just boasting; they were simply too proud and unwilling to believe it!
I was really cured.
"Young man, you're very good!" The emperor's brother-in-law had used all his skills in praising people. "You're really good."
With his hands behind his back, Su Yun, though small in stature, exuded the magnanimity of a reclusive master: "As long as it's useful."
He glanced at the system.
After the Demon Lord fell into demonic possession, the Imperial Brother-in-law of the Great Qian Dynasty was the first to notice something amiss.
He was an old horse in its stall, yet still eager to serve, but he was beset by attacks from both the Demon King and the Chosen One.
[Caught in a pincer movement from both inside and outside, they were brutally annihilated.]
You are evenly matched, yet you also deeply respect each other.
If you can respect your opponent, offer assistance to their blood relatives.
[This might significantly improve my reputation.]
[Task Difficulty: Extremely High]
[Task Reward: Righteousness]
Ding!
You respected your opponent and offered assistance to their blood relative (bloodline concentration: 100%) (helping them restore their Qianlong bloodline).
[Task Reward: Righteousness → Unyielding Righteousness!]
In the storyline, the emperor's brother-in-law is a relatively important character in the early stages.
After the Demon Lord fell into demonic possession, he was the first to discover, investigate, and plan to eliminate this enemy of the divine dynasty.
But the emperor's brother-in-law never imagined that the seemingly glamorous chosen one was actually a ruthless and vicious person.
The chosen one wants to kill the Demon Lord, but if he can also take down the uncultivated Imperial Uncle, he can gain a great deal of benefit.
Therefore, under the attack of foreign enemies and the persecution of internal traitors, the emperor's brother-in-law died a very tragic death.
While reading the book, Su Yun felt quite admiring of this old hero.
The two sides are simply on different sides, destined to fight each other.
Even a thousand years later, offering some help to the descendants of the old hero can show respect for this adversary.
But in this life, the two sides don't need to have mutually exclusive positions!
If Su Yun doesn't fall into demonic possession, he poses no threat to the Great Qian or the Heavenly Origin Realm.
Facing a future where saints are everywhere and emperors are as common as dogs.
With the help of the emperor's brother-in-law, development will surely be more stable!
Moreover, if this task were placed a thousand years in the future, Su Yun would definitely be troubled about how to find blood relatives for someone who has no blood relatives.
But a thousand years ago, would there have been any need to find blood relatives?
The emperor's brother-in-law is one's own blood relative, the eldest one!
In addition, he is a great hero who currently has no cultivation level.
Once he gets back to his normal condition, he will be able to exceed expectations in completing the mission!
The Emperor's brother-in-law was fundamentally damaged, and it would take a very long time to slowly repair him using only the Ling Shu Emerald Breathing Method.
But now Su Yun has the Resurrection Feather, which can give those who are not of Phoenix bloodline a chance to be resurrected!
If you get stabbed while holding this magic weapon, it will immediately restore your phone to factory settings, just like flashing a ROM.
However, this new machine is a bit old, and all the good stuff in the system has been deleted.
But the emperor's brother-in-law has a chance to start over and can also experience a physical rebirth!
"It's just a pity..." Su Yun said with some regret.
The Resurrection Feather is not very effective for those with missing souls or other fundamental deficiencies.
Moreover, because the emperor's brother-in-law has no cultivation, the charging time is slightly shorter.
It is for use by sages, who fear that each death requires a recharge of energy for thousands of years.
Even so, it is still terrifying. If a saint were given a second life, his combat power would be a thousand times greater.
The attendant probed with his divine sense and discovered that spiritual energy was indeed beginning to flow through the master's meridians.
He was overjoyed: "Sir, you've really recovered!"
"How about we find a girl for you to try?"
The emperor's brother-in-law was overjoyed and looked up: "No, return to the manor immediately!"
He didn't want to waste a single drop; he just wanted to share the good news with his wife.
The emperor's brother-in-law didn't need to give any other instructions; those trivial matters would naturally be handled by others.
But after taking only two steps, he turned back and said, "Kid, let's become sworn brothers!"
This child is not only courageous, intelligent, and resourceful, but also possesses extraordinary abilities.
I'm so lucky to have such a wonderful grandson.
Such an outstanding person is more than enough to be a close friend despite the age difference.
Su Yun opened her mouth, but couldn't say anything for a long time.
This span is too big!
The emperor's brother-in-law didn't insist; he was in a hurry to go back.
While hastily leaving, he also instructed, "Those girls, the manor will pay for their upbringing from now on."
Now that I know that kid, there's no need for me to show my face in public anymore.
At this moment, Young Master Yan had just finished his debauchery and came downstairs feeling refreshed.
