"Hey Lifen, since I'm working so hard to repay my debt, shouldn't you at least try and encourage in some way?"

"Why would I do that, when you're only doing what you are supposed to do as an honourable man?"

Shaking his head, Jian Shen shrugged his shoulders and said, "I'm not an honourable man in the slightest. So if you don't encourage me, I might give up in the middle."

Rolling her eyes and snorting, Lifen who didn't believe that anyone sane would suggest paying off debt by chopping wood pulled out an item from her spatial storage.

"Since you've asked for this, you'll owe me twice of whatever you already me. Okay?"

Smiling and nodding his head instantly, Jian Shen who chose to chop wood to get back in touch with his physical body and to stay as long as possible near Lifen stopped chopping wood and looked towards the fox tailed woman who was sitting peacefully sitting under a tree with a golden guqin in her hands.

What surprised him however wasn't that she was willing to play the guqin for him, rather it was the golden guqin.

"That.…"

Not saying anything and just smiling meaningfully, Jian Shen who never expected to find this Heavenly Creation without doing anything was truly surprised.

Though he did hear from Xifeng that one of the Heavenly Creations was inside the Black Forest, he truly didn't expect to find it even if he entered it.

But now that it was right in front of his eyes, Jian Shen felt even more sure that Xifeng was right about the Holy Guqin being impossible to be taken away.

Putting aside the capabilities of the Holy Guqin itself in the hands of someone who knew how to use it, the abilities of the Snow Tailed Fox should be more than enough to take care of any and everyone trying to take it away from her.

"You know this?"

Genuinely surprised because she had sensed that Jian Shen was someone who had ascended not too long back, Lifen was starting to feel that maybe Jian Shen wasn't as simple as he looked on the outside.

"Of course I do. Where did you find it?"

"This? I was given this by my teacher who used to rule over the entire Black Forest."

Nodding his head as these words made even more senses, Jian Shen understood how Xifeng knew where the Holy Guqin was at.

The one whom Lifen was talking about was a Heaven Shattering Apr which rarely existed outside the Dao Realm and ruled over the Black Forest.

Not saying anything else, Jian Shen stopped with the questioning to hear Lifen play the Holy Guqin and enjoy the effects it had on its listeners.

Out of all the Nine Heavenly Creations, it could be said that the Holy Guqin was the only one which was capable of healing someone and saving their life without taking anything in return.

Unlike the Hourgla.s.s of Sacrifice which needed something unique like the person's lifespan, all the Holy Guqin needed to show its power was have someone play a tune on it.

Therefore the words, a single tune to save your life or remove your existence from the world.

Of course, the tune played couldn't be something random and meaningless like just picking all the strings one after the others and needed to make sense according to what you are trying to achieve.

But, it'd be enough as long as the one who was using it possessed basic knowledge on how to play the guqin.

Not keeping Jian Shen in suspense for too long, Lifen after holding the Holy Guqin properly didn't waste any time and instantly began moving her hand.

Gracefully tugging at the strings one by one in the necessary order, she quickly created a bright and exciting melody which Jian Shen never heard before.

Along with hearing the tune, Jian Shen could feel that his mind was feeling refreshed while his soul was being healed as well.

Sensing his soul healing at a much faster rate than it did when he was eating so many herbs every day, Jian Shen after listening to the entire melody couldn't help but ask, "If you had this with you, why didn't you just play a song to help me heal right away?"

Smiling but not answering right away, Lifen looked towards Jian Shen for a while before finally saying, "If I did that, how could I be sure that you, who were the first visitor I had in a forever would not leave right away after being healed? "

A little surprised from hearing this, Jian Shen ended up chuckling as he went back to chopping wood while Lifen who was embarra.s.sed from speaking the truth hastily put the Holy Guqin away and shyly left.
