On the Long Road to Immortality, What Could They Rely On?

Seeing Heng Cheng's breathing gradually stabilize, Rong Jingyun breathed a sigh of relief, looked at her husband with tender eyes, and whispered.

"Husband, how are you feeling?"

Heng Cheng spoke somewhat haltingly.

"I... I'm fine. Thank you, Jingyun."

Rong Jingyun smiled gently, "We are husband and wife, there's no need for thanks."

Heng Cheng lowered his head in shame, "But I'm sorry, outside..."

Rong Jingyun interrupted him, "We'll discuss this when we get back. Let's deal with the immediate issue first."

She stood up, clasped her hands in a fist salute to Song Wen, and said, "Thank you, fellow Daoist, for allowing me to heal my husband."

Song Wen chuckled strangely, "Hehehe... I dare not accept your thanks, fellow Daoist, since I was the one who injured your dao companion."

"Fellow Daoist, let's not waste any more time and fulfill our promise as soon as possible."

"Good!"

With a thought, Rong Jingyun conjured two wooden boxes and five jade bottles in front of her.

"There are ten Silverhorn Grass and sixty Beast Brocade Pill here."

After saying that, he waved his hand, and the wooden box and jade bottle flew towards Song Wen.

Song Wen scanned the two wooden boxes and five jade bottles with his Divine Sense, and after confirming that there were no problems, he put them into his storage ring.

"That's not enough. Your husband and I agreed to exchange fifteen Silverhorn Grass and one hundred Beast Brocade Pill for the child's whereabouts."

Rong Jingyun turned to look at Heng Cheng, who was lying on the toad's back. The latter nodded and looked at his storage ring.

However, he is too weak to even open his storage ring.

Rong Jingyun walked to Heng Cheng's side and injected spiritual power into Heng Cheng's body to help him open the storage ring.

A wooden box and two jade bottles appeared out of thin air on the ground.

Rong Jingyun used her spiritual power to push the wooden box and jade bottle toward Song Wen.

"This is all the Silverhorn Grass and Beast Brocade Pill my husband and I have left."

Song Wen took the wooden box and jade bottle, scanned them with his Divine Sense, and found five Silverhorn Grass, which was enough for him.

However, there were only twenty Beast Brocade Pill bottles in total.

However, Song Wen wasn't greedy; eighty Beast Brocade Pill would be enough for him for a long time.

Song Wen Wendao put away the spiritual herbs and elixirs.

"It's time for you to Soul Oath."

As required by Song Wen, Rong Jingyun and Heng Cheng Soul Oath: if they revealed Song Wen's existence, their souls would be scattered and they would never be reincarnated.

Song Wen nodded and turned to leave.

"Wait a minute."

Rong Jingyun suddenly spoke up and called out to Song Wen.

"Fellow Daoist, you've taken the benefits, and we've agreed to the Soul Oath, but you still haven't told us where the child is?"

Upon hearing this, Heng Cheng looked at his dao companion with a surprised expression. He never expected that his wife would take the initiative to inquire about the whereabouts of their child, which made him feel even more guilty.

Song Wen stopped and turned to look at Rong Jingyun.

"But the number of pills you gave me, fellow Daoist, is not enough. What you've given is at most a life-saving fee for your husband. To find out where your child is, you'll need a different price."

Rong Jingyun said, "We can compensate with Spirit Stone."

Song Wen shook his head. "I don't lack Spirit Stone."

"What does this fellow Daoist desire? I am an elder of the Beast Taming Sect Alchemy Chamber, and I have some wealth. Please tell me what you wish for, and I will do my best to fulfill it if it is within my power."

Song Wen stared at Rong Jingyun, his mind racing, but he didn't answer immediately.

Demanding an exorbitant amount, such as all of the other party's wealth, is unrealistic. One should only ask for what one urgently needs.

Heng Cheng stared blankly at his wife, feeling that he owed his dao companion far too much. He shouldn't have Keeping a Beauty in a Golden House outside.

After a moment, Song Wen spoke.

"I would like your insights into Alchemy. Is that possible?"

Rong Jingyun smiled faintly, "I didn't expect you to be a fellow Daoist. As for my mere Alchemy, feel free to take them if you wish."

As she spoke, Rong Jingyun tossed a Jade Slip to Song Wen.

Song Wen took the Jade Slip and probed it with his Divine Sense. It contained the Pill Formula and refining tips for no less than a hundred kinds of pills.

He couldn't immediately determine whether the pill formulas and refining tips were correct. He could only glance at the Blood Qi Pill formula and refining tips, and at first glance, he couldn't see any problems.

Song Wen put the Jade Slip away with satisfaction. If this Jade Slip were left out, it would be worth at least 100,000 Spirit Stone.

At this moment, he couldn't help but admire the woman; she could take out such a precious Jade Slip so easily.

To save her husband and his mistress's illegitimate child, Rong Jingyun's magnanimity is truly admirable.

However, taking out this Jade Slip would not cause Rong Jingyun any loss.

If we're really talking about losses, it has to be the Beast Taming Sect, since half of the hundred- Pill Formula in this Jade Slip are spirit Pill Formula, which are unique to the Beast Taming Sect Pill Formula.

After putting away the Jade Slip, Song Wen kept his word and truthfully recounted the matter between Jing Yu and Xu Zheng.

Upon hearing this, Heng Cheng became somewhat agitated and shouted.

"That's impossible, you made it all up."

Song Wen smiled mockingly, "I have no grudge against you, why would I deceive you?"

"If you don't believe me, go to a place 130 miles west of the market. There is a cliff there, and from the top of the cliff, there is a Cave. The child is in the Cave."

"Xu Zheng only has the Qi Refining level of the third level of Qi Refining, so he can't use the Flight Technique. This child was tied up by his own mother and thrown into the Cave."

"That poor child hasn't had a drop of water for two days. If you don't hurry, he might starve to death in the Cave."

After saying that, Song Wen ignored their reactions, turned around and disappeared into the darkness, his whereabouts unknown.

After repeatedly searching with her Divine Sense to confirm that Song Wen had indeed left, Rong Jingyun finally felt relieved.

With a wave of her right hand, a small spaceship, about seven or eight meters long, appeared suspended in mid-air.

"Let's go, let's save that child."

Rong Jingyun used her spiritual power to lift Heng Cheng, board the spaceship, and fly away.

Heng Cheng swallowed several healing pills, sat cross-legged, and Rong Jingyun stood behind him, using her spiritual power to help him refine the pills.

"Jingyun, I'm so sorry. I shouldn't have kept a mistress," Heng Cheng said remorsefully.

Rong Jingyun said, "Husband, let bygones be bygones. From now on, we will support each other, rely on each other, and cherish each other through thick and thin."

"On this long path of cultivation, only my husband and I can truly open our hearts to each other. If we must constantly doubt and deceive each other, then this path of cultivation will be far too lonely and desolate. If that's the case, then we might as well give up on this path of cultivation."

Heng Cheng nodded heavily and said.

"Jingyun, after this incident, I will be devoted to you from now on and stay with you until we grow old."

"But what about the child? The child is innocent."

Rong Jingyun remained silent for a long time, then let out a deep sigh.

"Take him back to the sect. I will treat him as my own child. He is still young and doesn't understand. I think when he grows up, he won't remember this and will regard me as his real mother."

When she said this, Rong Jingyun's tone wasn't very certain, carrying a hint of uncertainty.

Upon hearing this, Heng Cheng's expression became somewhat excited. "Thank you, Jingyun."
