Chapter 806: Journey to the West Sequel - Salvation Merit 32

When Sun Wukong saw Ruyi coming back, he gently wiped the sweat off his forehead, greeted her casually, and asked, "Sister, have you finished your work?"

"Well, it's done. Let's go." Looking at the corpses all over the floor of Lingxiao Palace, Ruyi's expression did not change, as if what lay in front of her were not corpses but some ordinary flowers and plants.

"Sister, wait a moment. I, Old Sun, will give them another blow, to prevent a black lotus from appearing out of nowhere and taking away their souls like last time."

"Okay, then you finish off the sticks first, I'll go for a walk outside." Ruyi saw Sun Wukong hitting the corpses on the ground with his stick. She didn't want to stay here, so she planned to go to Tianhe to talk to Ruoshui first.

It has been a long time since I last met Ruoshui. I don’t know how Ruoshui has been doing during this period, and whether Wutan’s occupation of the heaven has had any impact on her life.

Ruyi came to the Tianhe River while thinking about it. After seeing the current Tianhe River, Ruyi realized that the Tianhe River had changed a lot compared to before.

The water level of the Milky Way River, which was once crystal clear, was now half as low as before and the color of the water had also become turbid. The dark grey water glowed faintly with purple-red light under the sunlight, which was obviously poisonous. Looking at the grass on both sides of the Milky Way River, not only had it lost its original lush and vibrant appearance, it was also full of potholes polluted by the poisonous water and not even a single blade of grass grew.

"Ruoshui, Ruoshui, are you there?"

Seeing the Tianhe River like this, it was hard for Ruyi not to worry about Ruoshui. She used her spiritual sense to search for Ruoshui along the Tianhe River while trying to send a message to Ruoshui. She also thought about going into the water directly to find Ruoshui, but Ruyi just tentatively touched the Tianhe River water with her fingers, and felt a tingling pain at her fingertips.

"So poisonous?!" Ruyi didn't expect that with his quasi-saint physique, he could still be harmed by the current Tianhe water. Obviously, the current Tianhe water had long been transformed into highly toxic poisonous water.

"Damn it, what happened to Ruoshui?" There was no response to the voice transmission, and Ruoshui could not be found with her spiritual sense. Ruyi became more and more worried. She tried to circulate the power of merit to wrap her fingers and probed into the Tianhe water again. Fortunately, she did not feel any stinging this time.

"Great, it works!" Ruyi, who was worried about Ruoshui, decided to go into the water and take a look himself. Tianhe River was the main body of Ruoshui. It would definitely cause great harm to Ruoshui if it was polluted like this and so much was missing.

Ruyi used the power of merit to wrap herself up and entered the Tianhe River. The water was filled with poison and Ruyi could only see a few meters in front of her. For this reason, she could only search for Ruoshui bit by bit along the entire Tianhe River. The whole process was very slow. Until Sun Wukong completely defeated the giant scorpion and his men in the Lingxiao Palace and came to find her, she still hadn't found Ruoshui.

"Sister Ruyi, where are you? The demons in the heavens have been dealt with. It's time for us to leave."

Ruyi ignored Sun Wukong's message and stayed at the bottom of the Milky Way looking for the trace of Ruoshui. It was not until the golden light of merit on his body began to weaken and was about to break that he had to leave the Milky Way and climb onto the shore.

Seeing Ruyi climbing out of the water of the Tianhe River with his own eyes, Sun Wukong was extremely surprised. He asked Ruyi incredulously: "Sister Ruyi, this Tianhe River is Weak Water, how come you are okay?"

"Great Sage, we may have to separate for a while."

"My friend is missing, and I want to go find her! So..." Before Ruyi could finish her apology, Sun Wukong raised his hand to stop her, "Hey, sister, it's really polite for you to say that."

"You are my sister. Now that I know your friend is missing, how can I just stand by and watch?" Sun Wukong insisted on helping. Ruyi expressed her gratitude and told Sun Wukong about Ruoshui's situation.

Sun Wukong pondered for a while and said, "From my point of view, your friend Ruoshui must have been captured by the demon Wu Tian. Even if she was not captured by them, her disappearance must be related to Wu Tian and his men."

"Look at the poisonous gas in the Sky River. It is a unique poison from the Demon Realm. Apart from Wu Tian, ​​I, Old Sun, can't think of anyone else who could be the poison!"

Ruyi followed Sun Wukong's speculation and remembered a key plot in the original story - to enter the underworld, one needs to cross the Weak Water.

I have been to the underworld before. At that time, you didn’t need to cross the Weak Water to enter and exit the underworld, so Ruyi forgot about this part of the plot for a while. Now think about it, maybe the plot of the underworld being surrounded by the Weak Water will come late.

"Great Sage, I know where Ruoshui is now!"

Ruyi suddenly had an idea, "She is in the underworld. She must have been taken there by Wuta. Let's go to the underworld now!"

"Okay, since you said so, then I, Old Sun, will accompany you to the underworld. Let's go!"

As soon as the two of them arrived at the underworld, they saw the small river that encircled the entire underworld. Ruyi squatted along the river and stretched out her fingers to feel it. "Sure enough, it feels the same as the river."

"So, did Wutan simply move half of the water from the entire Tianhe River to create this 'moat'?" After confirming that the river that suddenly appeared in the underworld was the Tianhe River in the sky, everything became clear.

"So Ruoshui is most likely here." Thinking of this, Ruyi immediately jumped into the river, and soon she found Ruoshui's figure at the bottom of the river.

"Ruoshui, how are you now?" Ru asked with concern as soon as he saw Ruoshui.

"Who are you? I don't seem to know you." But Ruoshui now looks a little strange. Not only has she changed from a clear and transparent water elf to a purple-black water demon, but even her memory has some problems.

"And who is Ruoshui? I am Minghe, not Ruoshui. You've got the wrong person!"

Ruoshui not only forgot her own name, but also regarded herself as the moat of the underworld. Ruyi tried to get close to Ruoshui to check on her and find out the cause of her amnesia. However, Ruoshui thought Ruyi was going to attack her and punched Ruyi on the spot.

Ruyi was caught off guard and had been consuming the merit power in his body in order to maintain the protective shield. Ruoshui's punch really caused Ruyi to suffer serious injuries.

After beating Ruyi, Ruoshui ran away. Ruoshui was the strongest in the river. Ruyi could not keep up with her speed at all and could only watch Ruoshui disappear again.

After getting ashore, Ruyi told Sun Wukong about Ruoshui's situation. Sun Wukong had no idea what to do about it. They both knew that Wutan must be responsible for Ruoshui's becoming like this. Perhaps only by capturing and defeating Wutan could they find out how to save Ruoshui.

Fortunately, although Ruoshui's condition is not good at the moment, her life is not in danger, so Ruyi can finally feel a little relieved.
