Chapter 1214 The Protection of Venerable Guye
On the other side, Venerable Guye led Xu Changshou and the others back to his dojo in a hurry and arrived at Thunder Pool.
After glancing at the Thunder Pool, Venerable Guye explained the situation of the three-legged thunder frog.
Xu Changshou pondered for a moment, then asked, "Where is the three-legged thunder frog now?"
Venerable Guye said, "In the Demon-Locking Tower."
"Can I take a look?"
"Give!"
Xu Changshou took the Demon-Locking Tower, glanced inside, and remained silent for a long time.
"How about it?"
Venerable Guye paced anxiously nearby.
Venerable Red Lotus asked, "What is the current situation of the Three-Legged Thunder Frog?"
Xu Changshou smiled and said, "The three-legged thunder frog has some mental problems; it may be suffering from depression."
"Forehead……"
"depression?"
"Junior Brother Xu, this..."
Everyone was stunned upon hearing this.
They had never heard of any demon cultivator suffering from depression.
Venerable Guye asked with some skepticism, "Is there a way to cure this?"
"I can try!"
"How to try?"
Xu Changshou pointed to the Thunder Pool and said, "Uncle Guye, you can put the three-legged thunder frog in the Thunder Pool first."
"This……"
Venerable Guye hesitated.
Previously, the Three-Legged Thunder Frog kept harming itself, and Venerable Guye was afraid that it would harm itself, so he put it in the Demon Locking Tower. Now, Xu Changshou actually asked to release the Three-Legged Thunder Frog, which is too risky. You must know that even a drop of blood from the Three-Legged Thunder Frog is a treasure and cannot be lost.
"Are you sure there won't be any problems?" Venerable Guye asked, still feeling uneasy.
Xu Changshou nodded: "It shouldn't be a big problem."
"Row!"
Venerable Guye gritted his teeth and casually threw out the Demon-Locking Tower. The three-legged thunder frog ran out of the Demon-Locking Tower and flew towards the depths of the Thunder Pool.
Xu Changshou glanced at Venerable Guye and said, "Uncle Guye, I need to enter the Thunder Pool to provide psychological counseling to the Three-Legged Thunder Frog. During this time, no one is allowed to disturb me, and no one is allowed to use their divine sense to spy on me."
"Alright, alright, go quickly!"
Venerable Guye readily agreed.
Xu Changshou then entered the Thunder Pool and disappeared.
Soon, an hour passed, and there was still no movement in the Thunder Pool.
Venerable Guye and the others waited anxiously outside the Thunder Pool, yet dared not use their divine sense to probe the situation inside.
Another hour passed, and Xu Changshou emerged from the depths of the Thunder Pool, followed by the three-legged Thunder Frog.
At this moment, the three-legged thunder frog hopped and skipped behind Xu Changshou, looking very happy and without the slightest hint of violence.
"Huh? It's done, the three-legged thunder frog is ready."
"That's amazing! How did Junior Brother Xu manage to do that?"
"Amazing! Junior Brother Xu is truly amazing."
The disciples of Venerable Guye stared wide-eyed.
Unexpectedly, Xu Changshou was able to restore the three-legged thunder frog to its former state in just two hours.
To everyone else, this was nothing short of a miracle.
"Haha, alright, the three-legged thunder frog is ready, Junior Brother Changshou, you've really got it!" Xu Ye smiled.
Zhao Xuemei praised, "Junior Brother Xu is truly an extraordinary person."
Yang Yanjing said, "In this world, I'm afraid only Junior Brother Xu can cure the problem of the three-legged thunder frog."
"Okay, really okay, great, great, hahaha!"
Venerable Guye laughed with satisfaction. He was happier than anyone else to see the three-legged thunder frog restored to its original state.
Venerable Red Lotus looked at Xu Changshou curiously and asked, "Xu Changshou, how did you cure the three-legged thunder frog's problem?"
Xu Changshou explained with a smile, "The three-legged thunder frog had psychological trauma. After I counseled it, it temporarily stabilized its emotions and recovered."
Venerable Red Lotus praised, "You lad, you're quite a remarkable person."
"Yeah, yeah! Hahaha!"
Venerable Guye laughed loudly: "Xu Changshou, you've done me a great favor this time. Consider this a favor I owe you. If you ever need anything in the future, just come to me. I'll be the first to stand up for anyone who dares to bully you."
"Thank you very much, Uncle-Master Guye!"
Xu Changshou smiled slightly. It wasn't easy; he had finally managed to latch onto a powerful figure.
Venerable Guye is an alchemist. Any cultivator at the Mahayana realm would show him respect. If one could establish a relationship with Venerable Guye, at least within the Donghua Immortal Sect, ordinary demons and monsters would not dare to bully him.
In addition, it is easier to obtain resources.
"Uncle-Master Guye!"
Xu Changshou glanced at Gu Ye Zun Zhe and said, "At this moment, although the three-legged thunder frog's emotions have stabilized for the time being, it has not been completely cured and may relapse at any time, so we need to be careful."
"I see!"
Venerable Guye nodded solemnly and said, "Boy, you've done me a great favor this time. Tell me, what reward do you want?"
"Don't dare!"
Xu Changshou took a step back and waved his hand, saying, "This matter is nothing more than a small favor for me, and I dare not claim credit for it."
At this moment, Xu Changshou lacked nothing except the Void Spirit Pill. If he directly asked Venerable Guye for the Void Spirit Pill, the other party would definitely give it to him.
However, doing so would leave a bad impression on Venerable Guye, making him think that he was greedy.
What he wanted was to maintain a long-term relationship with Venerable Guye, so that he wouldn't be looked down upon.
"You boy!"
Venerable Guye smiled, finding Xu Changshou more and more pleasing to the eye. He laughed and said, "I'll say it again: if anyone dares to bully you in the future, just mention my name."
"Thank you for your kind words, Uncle Guye!"
"Uncle-Master Guye, I have other matters to attend to, so I'll take my leave!"
"Yes, go, Xueyi!"
"The disciple is here!"
"Go and see Xu Changshou off quickly."
"Junior Brother Xu, please!"
……
After leaving the Gu Ye Venerable's temple, Xu Changshou returned to Sima Jian.
Upon entering the Sima Supervisory Office, he encountered Yang An, who looked extremely anxious.
"Senior Brother Xu, you're finally back! Something terrible has happened."
"What's wrong, Senior Brother Yang? What happened?"
Yang An said anxiously, "Uncle Hua punished you by deducting three hundred years' worth of salary and also made you work at the Horse Breeding Bureau to groom horses!"
"What's going on?" Xu Changshou frowned.
Yang An explained the situation in general terms, and Xu Changshou finally understood what was going on.
They left in a hurry, and Hua San Niang thought she had caused trouble and that Venerable Guye had come to make things difficult for her, which was why she was punished.
Hua San Niang's move was also a sacrifice of a pawn to save the king. If she didn't punish him after he really caused trouble, it wouldn't make sense to Venerable Guye.
However, it was rather hasty for Hua San Niang to punish herself without understanding the truth of the matter.
Seemingly sensing Xu Changshou's thoughts, Yang An said, "It was Situ Xuan who suggested punishing you, which is why Uncle Hua punished you."
"Situ Xuan!"
A cold glint flashed in Xu Changshou's eyes.
This Situ Xuan has caused me trouble more than once; it seems I have no choice but to teach him a lesson.
"By the way, what does Venerable Guye want with you?"
"It's nothing, he just asked me for a small favor."
"As long as it's okay, it'll be okay!"
