A faint fragrance wafted into the nose of Dong Fang Qing Cang and his lashes slightly moved. He opened his eyes.
In the four-squared little courtyard, there were various jubilant, thriving flowerpots. In there, the most frequent were orchids. At this time, a male with a thin figure was carrying a water basin and quietly watered an orchid pot in there with a very relaxed expression.
Dong Fang Qing Cang furrowed his brows. He wanted to move, but discovered his body cannot move. He thought that the ice crystals have covered his legs, but after lowering head to peer down, the ice crystals that covered his entire body have disappeared completely without a trace. A shining, yellow boundary was binding his movements.
Such binding action of the movements like this did not make him unhappy. The movement that did not make him happy was the current action of that person—too much of scattered, undisciplined strength. The tone of Dong Fang Qing Cang was unhappy as he said, "You still have the mood to water the flowers?" The tone can't help carry the strange energies that were still hidden in the bottom of his heart.
Dong Fang Qing Cang has exerted many efforts to bring Little Orchid in front of this person. It was not for any other matter, and was a gamble that perhaps he can save her, but at this time, this person was not in the least bit worried. On the contrary, was unrestrainedly watering the flowers?
Watering…another orchid?
Remembering Little Orchid who would often praise her master on usual days, yet at the time when one's at death's door, this person was not anxious. In contrast, was relaxingly taking care of other orchids. Temporarily the bitter energies at the bottom of the heart rolled over and over. Dong Fang Qing Cang grew angry in a way that even he did not understand.
"Siming…" Dong Fang Qing Cang called his name. The male with white robes who still was not paying attention to him has suddenly become dazed faintly and turned body around.
Seeing this face, Dong Fang Qing Cang slightly became dumbfounded. The day he came it was dark and cannot see clearly. Seeing clearly under the sunlight, Dong Fang Qing Cang understood now—it's no wonder that little flower demon was so loyal to the point….
It seemed this person has quite a good face.
He snorted coldly while heart secretly and condescendingly thought that Little Orchid was shallow. But when he tried to suppress the feeling, on the contrary, his heart incurred more weird feelings that even he did not understand clearly.
Dong Fang Qing Cang was bearing patience and attempted to speak in a cold voice, "If you do not wholeheartedly save and restore that little flower demon, today ben zuo will definitely dealt you straight…"
Chang Yuan narrowed his eyes, "How are you going to deal with me?"
"Oh?" Dong Fang Qing Cang induced a curve on his lips and color in the pupils turned ice-cold, "You dare to oppose ben zuo? Siming Xingjun really is brave." He secretly probed the energy inside body and immediately discovered that he has been unconscious for three days. The body has naturally restored quite more than a few parts. Despite not being able to dispel the cold energies temporarily, but was better than before by a lot. At this moment, he still should not exert too much strength in stirring the energies inside the body. But evidently, he does not value his body.
The raging flames surged around the body and wanted to burn the yellow boundary inside. The yellow boundary produced a crackling "kaka" sound.
Chang Yuan slightly furrowed brows and finger congregated powers…
But at this time, the room door suddenly opened. A female that could not bare it has angrily scolded, "Stop quarreling! Has not play chaotically enough?!"
Chang Yuan lost concentration and Dong Fang Qing Cang completely tore the boundary to shreds.
Chang Yuan immediately turned body to protect Siming and softly said, "Siming, go inside the room. He wants to harm you."
Dong Fang Qing Cang was currently surging with torrential hostile energies and heard this. The flames immediately extinguished. He peered at that female with narrowed eyes,"Siming?" The voice appeared to be in full disbelief.
Siming…is a female? The one master that Little Orchid was infatuated with and constantly thought of.
Unexpectedly is…a female?
Dong Fang Qing Cang was a little stupefied.
Siming shifted away from Chang Yuan's deep embrace and peered attentively at Dong Fang Qing Cang. She assessed him from top to bottom in one glance" Has awakened?" Her voice was not good, "Has awakened so attempt to tell me, this budding orchid of mine, how come she has become like this? Was it you who caused her to become like this?" Her questioning style was like a mother seeing her daughter being bullied by a treacherous lover, "You don't say clearly and I will break your hip bones!"
Dong Fang Qing Cang was dazed then became clear-headed. Hearing Siming say such, he immediately reacted, "But you can save the little flower demon?" As he spoke, he grew impatient and advanced several steps forward.
Chang Yuan obstructed the front of Siming and hand was forming a spell. It drew out a protective screen that halted him.
Dong Fang Qing Cang was impatient and also angry. He raised the raging fiery double-edge sword in hand and sliced towards Chang Yuan's boundary, but he was currently weak and cannot slice apart Chang Yuan's boundary completely with one sword.
The atmosphere was in a deadlock and Siming said, "Cannot save." Her voice cannot hide repeated dejection.
Dong Fang Qing Cang was daze. The famous fearul fiery sword from the ancient times to now have caused others to change color immediately was like a fiery flower that broke in the atmosphere into pieces and then disappeared messily.
"Can only string together her living energies." Siming peered at Dong Fang Qing Cang and solemnly said, "Therefore, I want you to let me know. In the end, how come she has turned into this? Knowing the reason behind the injuries there will perhaps be a way of saving."
The atmosphere was silent for a long time.

"Was I…" Dong Fang Qing Cang said, "Used the strength of her soul to build a body for another person, has caused her soul to disperse and scatter in that body. Only remained as these energies."
Siming heard such and was silent for a while. After that, pointed at Dong Fang Qing Cang's nose and said word by word, "Chang Yuan, beat him up for me."
Chang Yuan turned head to look at Siming and saw that her facial expression did not seem to be joking. The yellow-colored powers on the finger immediately passed through the screen in a crystal-clear yellow color in the front and directly knocked against Dong Fang Qing Cang's chest.
Dong Fang Qing Cang did not oppose at all and disregarded Chang Yuan's powers beating him that mixed with the frozen energies in the body. It caused each meridian on his body to become painful as badly as getting tear apart. The throat rolled up a mouthful of fresh sweet blood, but he has suppressed it down rigidly.
Seeing that Dong Fang Qing Cang was really not avoiding or dodging and accepted such hit, Siming and Chang Yuan were both dazed. The two people peered at one another. Siming peered into the room.
On the table, the bone orchid was placed on the side. She has used the orchid pot to replace the bone orchid. It has become a soul-dispersing place for Little Orchid to rest, and allowed Little Orchid to be at home in the dirt. At this time, the orchid leaves in the wind seemed to have carelessly swung and gently swayed as if they're trembling.
Siming closed eyes and breathed in a deep breath to stabilize the feelings. She peered at Dong Fang Qing Cang in front of the door with a pale-stricken face. The face was pale to the point of showing redness of blood. She asked, "Whether so, it's not to be concerned that you're currently coming here with what purpose. The urgent matter in front is settling the soul of Little Orchid. You come here, we can consult and find a way to save her."
Chang Yuan then withdrew the protective screen and stay guarded by Siming's side without leaving.
Dong Fang Qing Cang entered the room and saw the orchid grass inside the pot. He was a bit dazed, "The bone orchid is a magical treasure, has spiritual energies…"
"Does have spiritual energies." Siming followed and explained, "This magical treasure, its spiritual energies are prolific and rare, but it is a killing object. The astute hostile energies inside are many. To Little Orchid, that is not a good matter." Siming picked up the paintbrush from the table and drew a picture in the atmosphere. A water basin appeared in her hand, "In Wan Tian Zhi Xu, it was originally a dark place with nothing. Fortunately, a fellow friend has gifted this brush. I can draw the sky, earth, rivers, and mountains here. Can make all living things. The things created under my brush, despite missing a bit of living energies, but invaluable on the matter of pureness and cleanness. This is something that she needed the most right now."
Dong Fang Qing Cang was silent.
On the table of Siming, several papers were spread messily. On the surface that covered them were things she has written. She arbitrarily searched for a while and then brought out a piece of paper from there, "Today I have thought many methods of saving and restoring her soul, but Little Orchid is too heavily injured. Can only used the celestial powers of mine to protect her living energies and stabilize them a bit. Like so, stringing her living energies two-eight hundreds of years will not be a problem. But forever cannot repair her soul."
"Objects that can repair souls in this world have already disappeared almost completely from the ancient times." Siming bit the brush as she said, "These are various things that can repair the souls that might have remained which I've read in the ancient books previously. But these things have become legends from a long time ago. Currently, the world outside has them or not, I do not know clearly."
Dong Fang Qing Cang took the various illustrations Siming have thinly drawn. In total there were eight objects. There were five objects that he who lived during the time has known to become void and three remaining objects that he saw with his own eyes, disappeared from the world. Dong Fang Qing Cang frowned and pondered for a while. The eyes suddenly lighted up, "How come you don't draw ancient orchids?"
That question of his caused Siming to become stumped, "Ancient orchids have the ability to repair souls?"
Unexpectedly, Siming does not know.
Dong Fang Qing Cang nodded, "Yes, the original body of this little flower demon is an ancient orchid."
Siming was even more startled, "What?! The original body of Little Orchid was an ancient orchid?"
The room turned silent.
