Moreover, it was a blessing in disguise. The Eternal Black Vines had a toxin that could temporarily deprive someone of their Original Soul energy. If anyone dared to come seeking trouble, they would have a taste of it.
After some thought, he explained, “I am able to make the whip precisely because I don’t have Original Soul energy now. If I had Original Soul energy, I would inevitably contaminate the black vines. It would be troublesome.” An Jiuyue rolled her eyes at him.
“So, what you’re trying to say is that it was right for you to lose your Original
“Well… I didn’t say that.” Qian Jiyun smiled. He dared not say that he thought so.
Otherwise, she would definitely be upset with him. After all, Original Soul energy was undeniably the most important thing on Huayan Peak. Nothing could be accomplished without Original Soul energy.
“You didn’t say that, but that’s what you think, right?”
An Jiuyue knew him well. He must have thought it was good that he had lost his Original Soul energy.
“Should we skin the vines now?”
She could not keep criticizing and embarrassing him. She changed the topic and reached out toward the black vine.
“I’ll do it. It’s prickly.”
Qian Jiyun stopped her again. The black vines were indeed thorny. He was not lying.
He had tough skin, so he could handle it. However, An Jiuyue might get pricked. He could not let her skin the vines. “Just watch. It’s easy to skin the vines. I’ll finish it in no time.”
Upon hearing that, An Jiuyue nodded.
However, after watching him skin the vines for a while, she began to pity Qian Jiyun’s hands.
The Eternal Black Vine appeared to be calm and did not cause any trouble. However, when Qian Jiyun wanted to skin them, they suddenly became restless and agitated.
They were like pythons, struggling nonstop. Qian Jiyun was so tired that he was sweating profusely, and his hands were covered in blood.
She wanted to go forward several times, but Qian Jiyun stopped her. She could not even be of help.
rl/V0 hours had passed by the time the black vines were skinned. It was obvious how difficult it was to skin them.
When An Jiuyue saw him set the vine skin on a rock, she grabbed his hands and inspected his palms.
“You’re so injured. Don’t you know how to stop and rest for a while?”
With that, she took out a porcelain bottle from her space, opened the lid, and applied the Tissue Regeneration Powder she had refined to the wound on his palm.
“It’ll hurt a little at first. Bear with it,” she said softly as she applied the medicine.
However, after saying that, she could not help but note how, despite his injuries, he did not even frown. How could he not withstand this pain? It felt like a waste of her breath.
“How are you going to roast rabbit meat later with your injuries?” she could not help but ask as she applied the medicine.
“Then I’ll have to trouble you to roast it for me,” Qian Jiyun said, smiling.
They kept the vine skin in the tent. The remaining vine piths were not discarded either. An Jiuyue stored them in her space. Wei Na said they still had a hint of vitality and could be planted.
Moreover, the things planted in her space, especially those with spiritual energy, had a high chance of mutation.
If she could successfully grow the Eternal Black Vines, they could become sharp weapons that would follow her commands obediently in the future..
