Chapter 310: The sentence is longer than his life
With the temporary defection of the parties involved, Wen Ruo and Wen Zhuoer, and Yi Chi's forced excuses for Bu Shiren, the Third Elder, who thought he had it all figured out, returned empty-handed.
Before leaving, he gave a cold look at Wen Zhuoer who suddenly changed his mind.
Yi Chi glanced coldly at the inner sect disciple who was a fence-sitter.
The latter had never expected such a reversal and felt extremely regretful, knowing that he had been too hasty in his efforts and ended up losing more than he gained, and was probably finished.
The punishment Yi Chi gave was to first be lashed with a hundred lashes and then to reflect on his mistakes facing the wall.
The inner sect disciple was stunned, and then his brows lit up with joy. Although the disciplinary whip was terrifying, compared with the expulsion from the sect or demotion to menial work that he had expected, this punishment was as light as a feather.
I always thought that Bu Shiren was vindictive and narrow-minded, but I didn't expect that he had wronged the leader.
He thanked him repeatedly, and Yi Chi added: "A thousand years."
Inner sect disciple: “!!!”
The sentence was longer than his life.
I knew it wouldn't be such a good thing. Bu Shiren really fits the stereotype that he is not a human!
……
The dispute at Ming Zhaofeng spread throughout the entire Liuyun Sect, and all the outside companions knew one thing - scumbags will not change their nature, and this is the companion who replaced the scumbag.
Then the daily lecture to be held tomorrow that "Bu Shiren" publicly mentioned is the gathering place he hinted at.
The hidden "companions" lay down peacefully.
It's good that your companions climb high, so everything goes effortlessly. Okay, no need to worry, this scene is definitely a one-day vacation.
Enjoy this unrealistic memory scene, forget about your worries, and use the day to do whatever you want!
……
To be on the safe side, Yi Chi had one more thing to do before returning to Mingzhao Peak with Wen Ruo and Wen Zhuoer, and that was about becoming the first sect leader.
She took out the Heart Sutra secret book that the previous master gave her and read it from beginning to end.
The time now is seventy years ago, which is the thirty years since Zhu Jiu died and Tian Dao came to the world.
The ancient books on Taoism that she had written as the Wuji Lingzu were dusted off and revered as the foundation of Taoism. One of her sentences, "Three thousand great ways, all lead to the same destination," became widely circulated.
Encouraged by these words, the Jiuyou monk followed the trend to find and practice his own way.
This book in my hand...explains the "ruthless way" that the author has realized...
The story begins with the killing of close relatives, but the description is rather obscure and euphemistic.
Bu Shiren is an orphan picked up by the former sect leader. How could he have such close relatives? The other party asked him to do this probably because he already knew about the affairs about Wen Ruo and Wen Zhuoer that Bu Shiren had concealed.
On the one hand, Bu Shiren was afraid that this was a warning and intimidation from the former leader, and on the other hand, he coveted the smooth road of cultivation described by the "Wuqing Dao", so he killed him.
The problem is, now that Yi Chi was not killed and a happy ending was arranged, the former leader will either suspect her or depose her in anger.
This problem must be solved.
Just as he thought of this, Yi Chi received a distant voice transmission from the former head. The three heavy words hit him like lead: "Come here."
As I said, it's time for a private trial?
Yi Chi turned around and told Wen Zhuoer about this. The latter was chatting with Wen Ruo arm in arm. She was silent for a moment after hearing what he said, "How are you going to explain it?"
After much thought, from the perspective of the former sect leader who was secretly pushing all this, given Bu Shiren's personality, he would never do such a thing in the face of such a great temptation from the "Way of Ruthlessness" and the threat to the position of sect leader.
When Yi Chi goes this time, there is a high probability that he will attract the Time-Eating Beast with just a few words.
Especially since this is a sect with tens of millions of disciples. If they all turned into time-devouring beasts... I dare not even think about it. I dare not even think about it. They would not survive at all.
What is even more unacceptable is...
Wen Zhuoer touched his bulging belly with his fingers and looked up at Wen Ruo's happy smile.
If such a scene were to be shattered in such an ugly way, how would she face the next seventy years even if she survived?
The flowers on Mingzhao Peak are in full bloom. Walking up along the beautiful mountain road, the wind blows up clothes and the flying blue Xiying flowers. Yi Chi raises his hand to catch three of them.
One was pinned on Wen Zhuoer's lapel, one was pinned on Wen Ruo's hair bun, and the last one was pinned on her own temple with a smile on her face.
While praising Wen Ruo for her beauty, she whispered to Wen Zhuoer and chuckled, "Does Zhuoer believe in me?"
Wen Zhuoer: "...Shut up."
"Call me mom, and I promise that the former leader won't cause any trouble." Yi Chi continued to seduce.
Wen Zhuoer was indifferent and didn't fall into the trap at all: "If you don't shout, then don't do it? This is not just for me. Do you want to be chased and blocked by countless time-eating beasts?"
"Okay." Yi Chi turned around and held Wen Ruo's hand, saying with a sad face: "Ruo Ruo, why didn't Zhuo Er call me? You don't dislike me, do you? Are you still blaming me for ignoring you all these years?"
Wen Zhuoer: “……!”
Wen Ruo turned to look at her and gently advised her not to bear grudges. In fact, she said in a voice transmission: "Call her Zhuo'er. In order to pave the way for your rapid rise to fame, it is necessary to do some small things to make this woman happy."
"Thinking about those secret manuals and elixirs that were out of reach before, and the endless spiritual stones, do you feel motivated?"
“……”No.
But can Wen Zhuoer refuse any request from his mother now?
Obviously not.
Taking a deep breath, she stared into Yi Chi's eyes, smiling but not smiling, her voice filled with chill as she squeezed out one word, "...Mother."
"Hey~" Yi Chi smiled and happily took out a few candies from his sleeve and stuffed them into her palm, "My baby daughter is so good, come and have some candy."
Under Wen Ruo's pleased gaze, Wen Zhuoer "gladly" accepted it, his face frozen with a smile, especially as he watched Yi Chi and her mother being so intimate, as if they were really a family of three.
She was really convinced.
"You haven't told me how you're going to explain it to the former leader." She changed the subject with a complicated tone in her mind.
Yi Chi smiled and said, "Zhuo Er still doesn't believe me?"
"Don't worry, this time we won't let the Xiying flowers on the mountain be damaged in the slightest."
Yi Chi said goodbye to Wen Ruo and left, using the excuse of dealing with the sect's internal affairs.
The latter's gaze was fixed for a long time on Yi Chi's leisurely back as he walked down the mountain, with a hint of affection in his eyes.
Wen Zhuoer felt depressed when she saw this, because Yi Chi had already told her that Bu Shiren almost killed Wen Ruo.
The reason why Wen Ruo has become what she is now is that Yi Chi gave her a strong mental suggestion, making her forget about that incident and distorting the impression of Bu Shiren in her mind.
Yi Chi woke her up, expressed his "feelings" and made their decision public, thus winning Wen Ruo's approval and allowing everything to go smoothly afterwards.
Yi Chi could have directly destroyed the body, but he still went through so much trouble.
Wen Zhuoer actually thanked her.
Since it is a memory, let’s put everything in the most beautiful place.
"Mom, I'm really tired after climbing the mountain for so long."
"Then take a break. There's no rush."
……
At the same time, on the other side, Yi Chi had already arrived at the Howling Dome, which was actually the only place to stay on a gray cliff.
Sitting at the very front, the sight was swallowed by the brown howling gale, and there was no escape.
It is two extremes compared to Mingzhao Peak, which is full of birdsong and flowers.
The former leader was like an ascetic monk, sitting cross-legged at the front, his grey robe fluttering, his white hair and beard flying, with an unsheathed grey sword stuck next to him.
It is such a lonely place without any trace of spring.
Yi Chi took a look, stepped onto the dangerous cliff, and took two or three steps to stand next to the former headmaster named Qiu Tu.
Logically, she should bow and ask for help from five steps away, and she should not stand up if the other party does not respond.
But Yi Chi considered his own purpose and felt that it was unnecessary.
Qiu Tu closed his eyes, his body firmly rooted like a rock climber. He was obviously surprised by Yi Chi's abnormal behavior. He opened his eyes and looked at Yi Chi sharply, "You are very brave today, which is unusual."
Yi Chi said: "I often see you sitting here practicing, and I want to come and see what's so wonderful about this desolate scene."
Qiu Tu looked at her coldly and moved his dry lips. "What did you see?"
"Of course." Yi Chi tapped the hilt of the knife at his waist with his right index finger and said calmly, "Blood, it's all blood."
The howling dome suddenly erupted with an extremely strong murderous intent, and the pressure of the Void Refining Stage merged into the strong wind, smashing towards Yi Chi's kneecap like a giant hammer.
If it were Bu Shiren, he would have been kneeling on the ground with his whole body prostrated.
Yi Chi naturally did not move at all. Qiu Tu's eyes were filled with suspicion, as he had already realized that his disciple with a bad character was strange.
"The blood of your parents and relatives, the blood of your disciples, isn't this the 'ruthless way' that you have been practicing?" Yi Chi said coldly, "You are destined to sit in this desolate dome. If you fail, you will die."
The cold murderous intent on the Howling Dome has become reality.
From the fact that Bu Shiren initially wanted to be with Wen Ruo but hesitated and chose to conceal the fact, we can tell what a cautious person he is.
She was very afraid of Qiu Tu because people around Qiu Tu always died inexplicably.
This panic was secretly recorded by Bu Shiren in a sealed note - she was a person who liked to talk to herself in this way.
It was not until she took over the Heart Sutra of "The Way of Ruthlessness" that she suddenly understood why all this was happening.
How could Bu Shiren have the courage to take the ruthless path? She knew Qiu Tu's secret and had to go all the way to the end. She killed Wen Ruo and the other person because she was afraid of death.
