"Senior Brother, for Master's sake, please save Lin Bai."
Li Shanqing shouted at Slovenly Daoist, his face contorted with pain.
"Master ordered me to come to the Barren Ancient Continent, but he only told me to protect the lives of Lin Bai's relatives and friends. He never told me to save Lin Bai." Slovenly Daoist smiled bitterly. "Earlier, I already paid my respects to Lin Bai's parents, uncles, and elders, and gave them a bowl of medicinal wine."
"That medicinal wine contained the power of the medicines in my alchemy furnace. As long as they still had a breath left in them, the medicinal power hidden within their bodies after drinking that wine would allow them to recover in an instant."
"I have to say, the Barren Ancient Continent must have somehow received an astonishing amount of fortune. In just a few hundred years, it actually gave birth to so many outstanding and powerful figures."
"Lin Duo, Lan Ling, Li Subai, Li Zhengyi, Feng Lingzi, Monk Jiufeng, Bai Mu, Su Yanhua, Xun Zhizang, and the others were already extraordinary. With their talent, even in the Spirit World, they would have been fought over by the great aristocratic clans."
"But afterward, it gave birth to such uniquely gifted figures as Li Jiuge, Hei Luo Jian Jiu, Feng Wenjun, Shi Jiamu, A Ning, Yin Jiuling, and Jian Ruohan."
"There was also Lin Bai, a cultivation prodigy and a hero born in troubled times; and Bai Xiaoxiao, an empress whose name would resound through the ages, an imperial sovereign who had ruled for ten thousand years."
"Even in the Spirit World, figures like these are rarely seen."
"Just where did this Barren Ancient Continent get such fortune, to have created so many extraordinary beings?"
Slovenly Daoist let out a long, melancholy sigh.
