Chapter 2233: Chapter 2253: Kid, you just want me to be your nanny!_1

"Thank you, Senior, I will do my utmost to guard it," Lin Chen sincerely thanked the unidentified Senior. According to Sister Xi’s words, the incident where the Yin Yang Water Fire Mirror displayed its divine might and killed eighteen Great Powers had happened countless ten thousand years ago, yet the figure before him claimed to have witnessed it personally, indicating just how ancient and powerful he truly was.

Lin Chen silently celebrated making the correct choice. Had he chosen to confront the situation head-on, the outcome might not have been the same.

Although the Senior might not necessarily kill him, he would definitely have lost the Yin Yang Water Fire Mirror, and most likely the Yin Yang Spring as well.

The middle-aged man turned to Lu Yao and said, "My name is Taixu. If you are not convinced, you can come to find me at any time."

Lu Yao nodded in agreement, without saying anything more.

He harbored his own pride. If Lin Chen managed to keep the Yin Yang Water Fire Mirror, then the matter would be dropped. If it were taken away, he would risk everything to try to help Lin Chen retrieve it.

The actual prowess of the opponent would only change the manner in which he would attempt to resolve the issue, not the outcome.

The middle-aged man nodded: "Very well then, extend your hand."

Lin Chen obediently extended his hand, and the middle-aged man raised his own, letting a streak of golden light land on the back of Lin Chen’s hand. It was a somewhat simple array emblem, with a solitary design in the middle that resembled a star.

Lin Chen flexed his fingers, clenched his fist, and felt no discomfort.

The middle-aged man smiled and said, "When you encounter danger, channel your spiritual power into it, and it will establish contact with me. Remember, this Array Formation can only withstand one projection of my strength; afterward, it will be destroyed."

Lin Chen nodded, "Understood, Senior, I’ve got it."

"I wish you luck."

The middle-aged man smiled slightly, his body instantly transforming into scattered golden particles, dancing in the air and disappearing in a moment.

With that, Lin Chen finally took a deep breath of relief, having overcome the difficult situation.

Although he’d made a bet with the Senior and might lose the Yin Yang Water Fire Mirror, there was still hope. Additionally, between saving a person and keeping a Magical Treasure, Lin Chen would definitely choose to save a person.

Allowing Lu Yao to recover, even at the cost of the Yin Yang Water Fire Mirror, was worth it.

Without comparing the values of a human life and a Magical Treasure, at the very least, Lu Yao was a Daluo Initial Immortal and a gifted individual on the Immortal Path; this alone made him worth saving.

Lu Yao looked at Lin Chen with a keen gaze: "You’re really generous. The Yin Yang Water Fire Mirror is such an impressive treasure, and you gave it away just like that, all to save me, a stranger?"

Lin Chen said with a laugh, "How can one say we’re strangers? Not to mention anything else, but you are going to teach me the Carefree Walk, which is a favor of instruction. That alone should suffice, right?"

"Besides, you’re a Daluo Initial Immortal. I am hoping you’ll look out for me in the future. The Yin Yang Water Fire Realm is indeed powerful, but it doesn’t have a controller, so it’s just so-so. How can an inanimate object be more important than a living person?"

Lu Yao couldn’t help laughing, "You kid, you always want me to babysit you every day!"

Lin Chen chuckled and repeatedly denied, "Not at all, not at all. We are friends. But deep down, I truly respect you. Having an elder is like having a treasure. Your strength, insight, experience, and so forth, they are all incredibly valuable. Who would treat you as a babysitter?"

Lu Yao sighed, "I don’t know whether it’s your good luck or mine, but we actually found the Yin Yang Spring..."

Lin Chen laughed, "Who cares whose luck is better? The important thing is we found it. Let’s go back inside the tower and get your treatment set up first."

The two returned to the Linglong Tower, back to the small house where he lived.

"Just pouring the two types of spring water together is enough?"

"Yes."

Lin Chen found a wooden tub, first pouring in the Yin Spring, and instantly there was a cold aura in the air; the surface of the wooden tub froze over instantly, and the ice was actually black.

Lin Chen then poured in the Yang Spring. The fiery Yang Spring reacted vigorously as it was added, thick white mist billowing up, the chill in the air rapidly subsiding, and a warmth filling the open space.

Soon, the Yin Spring and Yang Spring were completely mixed, all the ice on the wooden tub melted away, and the liquid in the tub steamed, but without any sense of scalding heat or biting cold.

Lu Yao stripped off his clothes and sat cross-legged in the huge wooden tub, immersing himself completely.

Lin Chen clicked his tongue, "This does seem pretty straightforward."

Lu Yao had said that soaking in the Yin Yang Spring would trigger the body’s revitalization, taking roughly ten days’ time, after which he would need to gradually recover to his peak state using medicinal pills.

Lin Chen, holding the Yin Yang Water Fire Mirror, sensed that there were still some remnants of the Yin Spring and Yang Spring left and was immediately tempted.

This Yang Spring was formed from the Yin and Yang Qi of Heaven and Earth; the Yin Spring is utmost Yin, and the Yang Spring is utmost Yang. If used to supplement cultivation, corresponding to Cultivation Techniques of utmost firmness and utmost gentleness, it could yield twice the result with half the effort.

The Yin Spring was of no use to him, but then he thought it could be saved for Chu Jiaxue. The Goddess Su Xin Sutra she was cultivating was an utmost Yin Cultivation Technique, and using it would likely have a tremendous effect.

As for the Yang Spring, wasn’t it a perfect match for the Sun Scripture he was cultivating?
