"Unless what?" Qu Wuming asked.

"Unless, you are willing to swear to nourish me with a drop of your essence blood every day in the future, and after about three hundred years, I will no longer be able to rely on the immortal root, but completely transform into the spirit of Baoding."

"Okay, I promise!" Qu Wuming agreed without thinking about it.

Lingnu didn't expect Qu Wuming to agree so simply.

Essence blood is not blood, but a special blood condensed in the hearts of cultivators, which contains the power of its master's origin, and is a rare thing that integrates the essence of the cultivator's mana and the essence of life.

Even in the True Immortal Realm, there are very few people who are willing to use the essence blood they have worked so hard to cultivate to help others, let alone in this low-level lower realm where the aura is relatively thin!

"You have to think about it, a drop of essence blood every day may greatly affect your cultivation and reduce your strength!"

"I've figured it out! If you are not at ease, I can make a blood oath that I will not deceive you. Saying that, Qu Wuming really bit his fingertips, drew a blood oath array, and made a blood oath without hesitation, shocking the spirit slave in the ding, not knowing what to say.

"In that case...... Then it will be as you wish! ”

As soon as Lingnu's voice fell, the light flashed in the mouth, and a lotus root the size of a little thumb flew out under the wrapping of a cyan light, and was quietly suspended in front of Qu Wuming.

I only heard the spirit slave continue: "There are a total of two immortal roots in the Nine Rank Golden Lotus, I can only give you one at present, and it is enough to use it to make up for her three souls and seven spirits." As for the rest, I will not be able to give it to you until I transform into a Baoding Artifact Spirit after three hundred years. ”

"Good! Thank you very much! Qu Wuming put Baoding back into the storage ring, carefully grasped the lotus root in the palm of his hand, and then gently placed it in Lin Wanqing's mouth.

Strange to say, after the entrance of the lotus root, it suddenly turned into a ball of blue light and swooped into Lin Wanqing's body.

Lin Wanqing was unconscious, still asleep. It's just that after a while, her body began to be wrapped in a faint layer of green light, which seemed to contain a strong breath of life, flickering brightly and darkly with Lin Wanqing's faint breathing.

After another moment, that layer of green light gradually disappeared into Lin Wanqing's body, and her pale face gradually became ruddy, although her internal strength was still dissipating, the breath of life suddenly became much stronger.

"Qing'er!"

"Sister!"

Seeing this, Lin Yuan's father and son hurriedly stepped forward and surrounded Lin Wanqing.

I saw Lin Wanqing's slender eyelashes move slightly, and she slowly opened her eyes.

"Daddy, eldest brother, second brother......" As soon as Lin Wanqing opened her eyes, she saw the concerned eyes of her relatives, "Brother Qu......"

"Qing'er, you're finally awake!" Lin Yuan's father and son's tears couldn't stop falling again.

"Daddy, don't be sad......" Lin Wanqing wanted to raise her arm to wipe away her father's tears, but she still didn't have any strength on her body, and she couldn't even raise her arm.

"Brother Qu, I, can I recover?" Lin Wanqing seemed to know something, and there was a flash of sparkle in her eyes when she looked at Qu Wuming.

Qu Wuming gritted his teeth and shook his head helplessly.

"Although I looked like I was in a coma before, I seemed to be very conscious, as if I was a shadow floating on my body, I could see you and hear you, but no matter how I shouted, you couldn't feel me......" Lin Wanqing's voice trembled a little, as if she was suppressing herself from crying, "Just now, I actually heard what Brother Qu said to the 'person' in that Baoding...... Now, I have resigned myself to my fate...... Brother Qu, thank you! ”

Qu Wuming said softly on the side: "Don't accept fate, since the spirit slave has already said that your soul power will definitely be able to reincarnate smoothly, then there is still hope." ”

"But even if I come back from reincarnation, will my father and my brothers still be there?" From the corners of Lin Wanqing's eyes, two lines of tears finally flowed down, "Even if I return from reincarnation, can I still see you?" When I see you, will I still recognize you? ”

Qu Wuming was speechless, and tears flashed in his eyes.

"Daddy, eldest brother, second brother," Lin Wanqing's gaze reluctantly fell on everyone's faces, as if she wanted to firmly engrave the faces of the four people in the depths of her soul, "I'm sorry, Qing'er has caused you a lot of trouble in this life, but I couldn't accompany you to the end......"

"No, Qing'er, don't say that." Lin Yuan took Lin Wanqing's hand and sobbed, "It's Daddy who didn't protect you!" ”

"Daddy, if you and I have an afterlife, I really hope that you will become my child, so that I can repay you twice as much for your kindness to me."

"Qing'er ......" Lin Yuan couldn't cry anymore when he heard this.

Suddenly, Lin Wanqing's body began to emit a faint white light of holiness, and everyone present was stunned, as if they knew what was going to happen next.

Lin Wan smiled lightly and moved her gaze to Qu Wuming's face: "Brother Qu, the biggest dream in my life is to go to the end of the world with a sword and be a chivalrous and righteous heroine." It's a pity that I didn't have the opportunity to make it happen, but I'm glad I met you in the last moments......"

Qu Wuming's lips trembled, and he couldn't hold back his tears, but his vision had already become blurred.

"Brother Qu, thank you for letting me experience an almost perfect dream in my last days." The smile on Lin Wanqing's face became more sincere and sunny, just like Qu Wuming looked when he first saw her.

But this smile as bright as the spring sunshine fell into the eyes of Qu Wuming and others, but it seemed to be witnessing a beautiful and holy flower blooming its last light before withering, which made people helpless and heartbroken.

"If what the spirit slave said is true, will you find a way to find me after I am reincarnated in the future?"

"Yes!" Qu Wuming nodded, and two tears finally couldn't help but roll down.

Lin Wanqing smiled lightly, and then said: "Since this is the case, then I can also learn from Brother Qu just now, and make an oath with Brother Qu?" ”

"What oath?" Qu Wuming nodded, "Say it!" Let's stand together. ”

"My life is short, at this moment, I feel most sorry for my father and two brothers, and the most reluctant is Brother Qu......" Lin Wanqing said in a trembling voice, tears in the corners of her eyes slipped down quietly like pearls with broken threads, "If Brother Qu can help me protect the safety of my father and brother in their lives, I will swear to Brother Qu that after I am reincarnated and reborn in the future, even if I have forgotten everything, I will definitely come back to find Brother Qu, okay?" ”

"Good!" Qu Wuming nodded heavily, "As long as you can come back, I am willing to protect your Lin family for the rest of my life and never turn my back!" ”

Lin Wanqing shook her head with difficulty, and smiled with tears: "Qing'er is not so selfish yet...... Brother Qu is willing to protect my father and brother, and Qing'er is satisfied. ”

"No, I'm serious." Qu Wuming took Lin Wanqing's other hand and said softly, "As long as you can come back, I am willing to wait for you for as long as I want." ”

Lin Wanqing felt a warm current in her heart, feeling the warmth and strength from Qu Wuming's palm, and asked softly, "How long are you willing?" A hundred years, a thousand years are willing? ”

"I am willing for a hundred years or a thousand years!"

At this time, the white light emitted from Lin Wanqing's body became brighter and brighter.

Lin Wan's clear eyes looked at Qu Wuming's eyes and said, "Then, I will make an oath." Three hundred years, three hundred years at most, I will definitely come back! When the time comes, I want to be a real heroine, travel the rivers and lakes with Brother Qu, and act chivalrous and righteous......"

Before she finished her sentence, Lin Wanqing's body had involuntarily gradually blurred, as if she had turned into a human form composed of white light, she raised her hand and gently brushed her nameless cheeks, her eyes were full of tenderness and reluctance.

Lin Wanqing's body gradually floated, and under the gaze of Qu Wuming and others, it turned into a white point of light and dissipated......

Qu Wuming had tears on his face, but he didn't want to raise his hand to wipe it away, but picked up a hairpin from the stone bed in a daze.

It was the hairpin that had just fallen from Lin Wanqing's hair.

Qu Wuming gently rubbed the hairpin, put it into his storage ring after a while, looked sideways at the Lin family father and son who were already crying, and said in a deep voice: "You guys wait for me in the cave." ”

"Brother Qu, where are you going?" Lin Yuan stopped and said sadly.

"I'm going to kill a few people!"

With that, Qu Wuming turned around and left this hidden cave, turning into a ray of light and heading straight for Hulan City.

————

In the city of Hulan.

People come and go on the streets, as busy as ever.

The same is true of the city lord's office, which deals with the disputes of the people, maintains public security and defense in the city, repairs and maintains the streets and buildings in the city, and the entrance of each government office is full of people coming and going, each doing its own thing.

Qu Wuming walked on the street expressionlessly, step by step, his steps seemed to be extremely slow and heavy, but his figure seemed to move extremely fast, as if he had only taken a few steps, but he had advanced more than ten zhang distance.

In front of the gate of the tall City Lord's Mansion, Qu Wuming finally stopped for a moment.

Looking up at the gilt plaque at the gate of the City Lord's Mansion, Qu Wuming suddenly had an extra sword in his palm, and swung out a sword qi from the ground, cutting the plaque above his head into two with a click!

The two soldiers standing guard at the gate hadn't even reacted, and the sword-wielding man in front of him had turned into a flash of light and rushed into the city lord's mansion.

"Oh no! Someone broke in with a sword! ”

"Come on! Someone broke into the City Lord's Mansion with a sword! ”

The guards shouted and rushed through the gate, but as far as the eye could see, where was the shadow of the man? Along the road, there was only one stunned city lord's palace servant and guard......
