Reverend Jin Wu made the journey at top speed. He brought Su Mo across the infinite universe, from one end of the Ancient Cloud Star Alliance to the other, passing thousands of branches in between, in just two hours.
Very soon, the two came to a star called Clear Moon Star.
The Clear Moon Branch was established in the center of a vast mountain range on Clear Moon Star. Its surroundings worked well as natural city walls.
Swoosh!
Reverend Jin Wu, along with Su Mo, landed at the entrance of the Clear Moon Branch. This was a canyon formed by two mountain peaks, acting as the gateway to the Clear Moon Branch.
“Sir, may I have your name, please?”
Because of his immense aura, the guard who approached him courteously asked for identification.
“Tm Reverend Jin Wu, Chief Elder of the Palmy Branch, here to request a meeting with Elder Lin Wanru,” the Reverend said with an air of authority.
“Hold on, sir, I’l report to her immediately!”
Hearing that, the guard dared not offend and quickly went to report the guest’s presence.
And so, Su Mo quietly waited alongside Reverend Jin Wu.
Soon after that, a woman in a palace dress flew in and stopped in front of her guests.
The woman looked to be in her thirties, with good looks and good charm.
“So it’s you, Elder Jin Wu. Please excuse me for my manners!” said the woman in the palace dress, who obviously knew him, and bowed politely.
“It’s all good, Elder Lin!” Reverend Jin Wu nodded. He had been in the Ancient Cloud Star Alliance for years, but due to the extraordinary number of branches and Elders, he had yet to get to know Elder Lin Wanru.
“It must be an important matter, for you to come all the way here. Please come in,” said Elder Lin Wanru. And then, she cast a curious glance at Su Mo.
She was not attracted to him, but she managed to guess his identity.
After all, there had been news of Reverend Jin Wu’s disciple spreading across all the branches, describing Wu Shan as incredibly talented and invincible below the Supreme Being Realm.
So, Lin Wanru knew that he was Wu Shan right off the bat.
After that, she led the two into her mansion.
In the parlor, Lin Wanru and Reverend Jin Wu sat down as guest and host, while Su Mo stood behind his teacher.
“Elder Lin, I come today to ask for a favor,” Reverend Jin Wu skipped the small talk and went straight to the point.
“Do tell, Elder Jin Wu!” Elder Lin Wanru nodded. She had not corresponded with Reverend Jin Wu, but whatever favor he asked for, she would not refuse as long as it was within her abilities.
“Wu Shan!” Reverend Jin Wu called for Su Mo.
At once, Su Mo summoned his thoughts and Qian Xunyue’s coffin instantly appeared in the parlor.
“Twould like to ask you to save this girl!” Reverend Jin Wu pointed at the coffin and said, “Of course, it won’t be for nothing. I shall offer a wholesome reward.”
Reverend Jin Wu had gotten hold of Elder Lin’s background details. She was not the Chief Elder of the Clear Moon Branch, and her training was only at Supreme Realm Great Completion, but she held a high status in the branch.
After all, the Life Rule was quite rare. Its ability to heal was simply incredible.
Of course, Elder Jin Wu was willing to do it no matter the price. He valued Su Mo very much, for he was a one-in-a-million genius.
Elder Lin Wanru said nothing more. She slowly got up, moved towards Qian Xunyue’s coffin, and began pacing around it.
Su Mo was a little nervous because he had waited too long for this moment.
Although Elder Lin could not really let her live in the literal sense, as long as she could revive Qian Xunyue’s vitality, that would be the next best thing.
“Elder Lin, what do you say?” Reverend Jin Wu asked.
“Elder Jin Wu, it’d be easy to treat this woman’s physical body. In a few breaths, I could let her body be filled with vitality just like any normal person’s, but her Spiritual Soul…!” Elder Lin Wanru hesitated.
“Tell us, Elder Lin!” said Reverend Jin Wu.
“Her Spiritual Soul has completely dissipated. There’s a wisp of longing left, but it’s merely a trace of mental imprint, not enough to revive her,” she said.
“Can you enhance her mental imprint then?” asked Elder Jin Wu. It was apparent that the woman knew more than him in this regard.
“Certainly, but it’ll be far from reviving her,” said Elder Lin Wanru.
“Please do what you can, Elder Lin. You have my deepest gratitude,” Su Mo saluted Lin Wanru with his fists balled together and said respectfully. He was not too disappointed, for he had expected this.
“Are you Wu Shan?” Lin Wanru smiled as she examined him.
“Yes,” Su Mo nodded.
“Tt seemed this woman is either your relative or your loved one. I’m willing to help, no payment needed,” Lin Wanru smiled and said.
Su Mo beamed. How kind of her! They bore no resentment towards each other in the past, so she would not be tricking him.
“Thank you, madam,” Su Mo thanked her.
“Te heard of you for a while, You’re number one below the Supreme Being Realm in the Ancient Cloud Star Alliance. Whether that’s true or false, it still says a lot about your talent,” she said, still smiling. “I’ve save this girl today, in hopes that you can fulfill my request should I one day need to ask. I hope
you remember that.”
“I won’t forget. Never!” Su Mo said in a serious tone. One good tum deserved another. As long as it was within his abilities, he would not refuse.
“Alright, I believe you!” Elder Lin Wanru nodded and, within another word, waved her hand and Qian Xunyue’s coffin floated off the ground.
Then she sat cross-legged in front of it and shut her eyes.
Su Mo and Elder Jin Wu stayed silent. They knew the woman was about to start treating Qian Xunyue.
Soon, Lin Wanru’s person was surrounded by dense life force. It was formless and intangible but could be clearly felt.
As time passed bit by bit, the life force gathered around her bloomed more and more vigorously until it reached maximum capacity.
Then, with a wave of her arm, the dense life force slowly entered Qian Xuanyue’s body. It was not a short process, as it kept going.
As the life force entered Qian Xunyue’s body, Su Mo could clearly feel the previously lifeless body become gradually revitalized.
One!
Two!
Three!
After a moment’s effort, the vitality of Qian Xunyue’s body, which had been comparable to an ordinary person’s who was without any training. From there, it continued to grow stronger
After half an hour, the vitality of Qian Xunyue’s body managed to achieve her previous level, which was the Martial Royal Realm.
More surprisingly, Su Mo could clearly hear Qian Xunyue’s heartbeat, breathing, and even blood flow.
This was already a normal body. If not for the absence of the Spiritual Soul, this was practically a living person.
