Senior Sister Bai Yueguang is incredibly strong.

Chapter 68 Falling to Earth (1)

"What exactly happened? Who could have hurt you so badly?"

Qian Kuo helped apply the medicine, his tone somewhat urgent: "You were too impulsive! Why didn't you call me?"

Luo rubbed his throbbing temples and only explained that the incident happened suddenly.

"So, what did you get out of last night?"

Luo Zai Shui covered her head and closed her eyes: "The situation is not good. It's involved with the Ghost Realm, and I may have alerted them last night."

Upon hearing Luo Zai Shui mention the Ghost Realm, Qian Kuo was taken aback for a moment, then said, "How is that possible? The Ghost Realm has been silent for so many years... and isn't there still a barrier around it?"

Luo Zai Shui opened her eyes, her expression somewhat serious: "It's because there's been no movement for so many years that we've become careless. The barrier of the Ghost Realm might not be as strong as we thought. When we get back, I'll have to go with Master and Ling Hai Zong to check it out, as well as the array on the Demon Clan's side..."

Thinking about all this, Luo Zai Shui felt a headache coming on; this was a sign that something big was about to happen.

"Is it really that serious? It's just a few demonic cultivators sneaking out, is it really necessary to make such a big fuss?"

Qian Kuo was puzzled. He had never cared about these things. From a young age, he was exposed to how to make money and how to be a qualified and shrewd head of the family, not how to deal with these issues.

Luo Zai Shui sighed and slapped his forehead: "If they really break through the barrier, you won't be able to live in peace."

"So what do we do now?"

It would indeed be troublesome for the demons and ghosts to break through the barrier, especially since the cultivation world is not united now. If the demons and ghosts join forces, then there will surely be widespread suffering.

Luo Zai Shui was also in a dilemma. There was nothing they could do on their own, and now they could only hope that their senior brothers would arrive soon.

After treating the wound, Luo Zai Shui gave Liu Lan another acupuncture treatment. Liu San had been staying here for the past few days, and he had become noticeably thinner. Luo Zai Shui sighed softly; she was indeed somewhat incompetent.

She was indeed exhausted after working all night. When she returned to Sister-in-law Shen's house, she fell asleep immediately and woke up late at night.

"Boom boom boom——"

The frequency of the knocking was unusually familiar; perhaps it was a telepathic connection. Luo Zai Shui put on her coat and ran out to open the door.

Looking at the familiar figure in front of her, Luo Zai Shui's eyes reddened without her noticing. Before she could say anything, she was pulled into a warm embrace.

The man's voice was hoarse: "Junior sister, I'm sorry we're late."

Luo Zai Shui was a little stiff, then slowly placed her hands on Shi Ming's waist. The man seemed to have lost a lot of weight and looked quite haggard.

"Senior Brother, I'm alright..."

"Senior Sister—"

Jian Muyi sobbed and hugged her too, but Su Wusi was one step ahead of him and buried her face in Luo Zaishui's shoulder first.

"Senior sister, I miss you so much..."

Xue Xin, with red eyes, and Ji Tinghan seemed out of place. After hesitating for a while, they also approached Luo Zaishui.

Nie Xushuang, Ye Xiao, and Chu Yeli watched this scene with an indescribable feeling of emotion. Nie Xushuang wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes and said, "It's good that you're alright, it's good that you're alright. We searched for you for several days at the bottom of the abyss, but we couldn't find you. We knew you would be alright."

Luo Zai Shui awkwardly withdrew from Shi Ming's embrace, then looked at Nie Xu Shuang with delight: "Senior Sister Nie, you're here too! That's great, we needed you!"

"What happened?"

Nie Xushuang suddenly had a bad feeling.

"Come in and talk."

Shen Yan, who appeared out of nowhere, felt a pang of unease upon seeing the scene before him, but he pretended nothing had happened and brought Luo Zai Shui's family in.

Ji Tinghan and Shen Yan inexplicably locked eyes. In that brief moment, Shen Yan suddenly understood why Luo Zaishui said he resembled her junior brother. They were indeed very similar. Perhaps the reason that person treated him so well was because of this junior brother.

Luo Zai Shui and Shi Ming walked behind. Shi Ming gently touched Luo Zai Shui's hand and then stuffed a storage bag into her hand. It was her storage bag.

"My storage bag, senior brother, how did you find it?"

Luo thought she would never find it again.

"I snatched it from the mouth of a monster. It contained something very important to you, so I brought it to you."

Luo Zai Shui smiled slightly: "Thank you, Senior Brother."

"Alright, alright, you two have plenty of time to pour your hearts out back here. First, tell me what happened and how you got back to the mortal realm?"

Chu Yeli walked at the back, watching the two of them being so affectionate, which was really an eyesore, so he impatiently interrupted their reminiscing.

Nie Xushuang gave him a fierce look, then turned to a gentle smile: "Junior Brother Chu, if you are very busy, you can go back first."

Ye Xiao nodded in agreement, while the other disciples of Xianyun Peak also looked like they wanted to tear him to pieces.

Chu Yeli then fell silent. What was he thinking, coming to the mortal realm with them? Wouldn't it have been better to stay in the Linghai Sect and cultivate quietly?

"Oh right, Qian Kuo is here too. Should we call him over?"

Luo Zai Shui remembered Qian Kuo, who was still left at the pharmacy.

Chu Yeli waved his hand dismissively: "What use is he? The Qian family won't help. At most, they'll send someone to pick him up."

He was telling the truth. Powerful families generally don't get involved in these matters, especially since the Qian family is currently being watched by the Wen family.

Luo Zai Shui sighed softly, and Shi Ming patted her back to comfort her.

While Nie Xushuang was changing her dressing, Luo Zaishui briefly recounted what had happened in the past few days. During this time, she looked at Jian Muyi, hesitating whether to tell him that his father was also there.

Unexpectedly, after listening, Jian Muyi clapped her hands: "The adult that Senior Sister is talking about sounds just like my father! My father is also often demoted, and he likes to meddle in these kinds of things!"

Luo Zai Shui sighed, "Is there any possibility that he really is your father?"

But what she actually said was, "Do you want to go see him?"

Jian Muyi scratched his head: "Let's not. Master said I should sever my ties with the mortal world. If I meet my father, then I haven't really severed them, right? Besides, he'll definitely nag me about it, and if my mother finds out, she'll definitely make me cry."

Luo understood. She still wanted to see the child, but the important matter at hand was more pressing.

"Right now, we still need to find out what those ghost cultivators are up to as soon as possible. By the way, take me to see that girl you mentioned in the water."

Nie Xushuang looked at Luo Zaishui: "Right now, we can't send messages to our master and the others. They are dealing with the Wen family. We also sneaked down here. For some reason, the Wen family is unwilling to let cultivators descend to the mortal realm."

Luo Zai Shui nodded: "If that's the case, then it would seem that we've overestimated ourselves."

Chu Yeli snorted coldly: "Haven't we overestimated ourselves enough? I'd like to see what those people from the Ghost Realm are up to!"

Shi Ming looked at Luo Zai Shui: "It's best not to act rashly. I'll contact Uncle Xie first. He told me to send him a message if anything happens. He should be able to help us."

Ye Xiao nodded: "The Ten Thousand Swords Sect should be able to send someone to help as well."

Chu Yeli smiled slightly: "Then they have to come to Linghai Sect first, since we know the flaws in the barrier best."

Luo Zai Shui finally felt much more relaxed: "Okay, let's do it this way for now."
