Chapter 163 Seek the Truth, Don’t Deceive

Bai Yunshu glanced at her, was silent for a while, and decided to help her quit.

Bai Yunshu became obsessed with cooking and feeding her, and Qi Ningzhu finally quit!

But even after she quit smoking, Bai Yunshu didn't let her go.

She often said that she couldn't eat anymore, but Bai Yunshu would stare at her and ask in a cold voice with a resentful look on his face.

"Don't you like to eat it? Why don't you eat it after it's been prepared? Don't waste it. I spent a lot of time making it. Is it not delicious?"

Qi Ningzhu: "It's delicious. Nothing tastes better than what Master makes..."

She felt guilty for saying this.

In fact, Qi Ningzhu occasionally suspected that Bai Yunshu did it on purpose, but seeing Bai Yunshu's sincere look, she didn't think it was true.

It’s all tears if I talk too much.

At this moment, Bai Yunshu opened his mouth and took it, with joy in his eyes.

Seeing Bai Yunshu happy, Qi Ningzhu looked for an opportunity to ask something.

After all, I thought about it for a long time last night and was afraid of repeating the same mistake.

"Master, would you lie to me?"

Qi Ningzhu ate pastries and asked her vaguely.

Bai Yunshu was stunned and lowered his eyes.

"Xiao Ningzhu, feel free to ask whatever you want to ask. Master will answer you."

Of course there will be a response, but we don’t know whether it is true or not.

Sometimes lies are told with good intentions, but good lies are still just lies after all.

Qi Ningzhu took a deep breath and finally asked the question that he wanted to ask most.

"Master said before that it wasn't me, so who was it? Who was it that pushed me into the Demonic Abyss? Master, do you know? Please tell me, okay?"

She tried her best to pretend not to care, but the oil paper in her hand had already been crumpled into a ball.

Bai Yunshu looked at her expression and whispered, "Ningzhu, what will you do after you find out?"

Qi Ningzhu answered her without any hesitation.

"I will kill her, use all my strength, kill her, or... let her experience my pain again."

There was a scarlet light flashing in her eyes, and Bai Yunshu was silent.

The window was suddenly blown open by the wind. They looked out and found that snow was blowing in.

When Bai Yunshu went out this morning, she found the air was very cold, with mist and snow falling. She knew that early winter had finally arrived.

She quickly got up and planned to close the window to prevent the cold air from entering the house.

Although she was not cold, it would not be good if her little disciple was cold.

Qi Ningzhu stood beside her and raised her hand to interrupt her from closing the window.

"Master...answer me first."

She couldn't help but ask, letting the cold wind blow away the warmth on her face.

After Bai Yunshu's movements were stopped, he pursed his lips and looked at her.

"Ningzhu...cold."

She only said these three words. Qi Ningzhu saw her evasion and suddenly sneered.

"Master, can you feel cold too? Master, do you know that my heart is even colder now?"

When Qi Ningzhu said that, Bai Yunshu's expression became visibly flustered.

"Ningzhu...listen to what your master says."

"Master, tell me, what are you afraid of?"

Qi Ningzhu felt a lot colder in his heart, and just looked at her quietly.

Bai Yunshu had told herself before that she would be honest, but now it seems that she is planning to hide something.

Bai Yunshu was unsure and thought of Tao Yiye.

The eldest senior sister who strictly obeyed her master's orders, put the sect at the top of her heart, and was steady and indifferent throughout her life.

What to do...

Bai Yunshu gritted his teeth and took all the blame on himself.

"I'm sorry. I felt guilty and worried that you would be sad, so I chose to lie to you. It was I who did it. It was I who pushed you into the Demonic Abyss..."

Bai Yunshu's face turned extremely pale, and there was helplessness in his eyes.

Qi Ningzhu frowned, and suddenly felt that he was really stupid last night for actually planning to believe her.

"You're lying! You know the truth of that year, right? Why did you hide it from me? Is that person important to you? Who is she? That wasn't you. I chose to believe you last night! Please don't lie to me, okay?"

Although Fusheng had always said that Bai Yunshu pushed her, and she also believed in her memory, what Bai Yunshu said later made her waver.

Between herself and Bai Yunshu, she was trying her best to convince herself to choose to believe Bai Yunshu.

Bai Yunshu clenched his hands tightly in his sleeves and suddenly hugged her into his arms.

It’s important, everything is important, everyone is important.

"Master will make it up to you and protect you. What happened before will never happen again. Do you believe in Master?"

The cold wind was howling outside, but inside the house it was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.

Qi Ningzhu couldn't figure it out and began to doubt whether Bai Yunshu had really been lying to her before.

If she hadn't lied to herself, why would she protect that person so much? Who was that person?

There are too many people who care about Bai Yunshu. The first person Qi Ningzhu thought of was Geng Jihuan, but Geng Jihuan's personality is not one that can hide things, nor would he do that.

Did Nan Le know? Or Tao Yiye? Or Yue Daiyuan? Only a few elders could transform and safely enter the Demonic Abyss.

Qi Ningzhu took a deep breath, his whole body trembling, and tried to push Bai Yunshu away.

"How can you make amends? What's your excuse? You're a liar! I don't believe you."

Qi Ningzhu wanted to push away, but Bai Yunshu held her too tightly.

Although her words were meant as a reproach, Bai Yunshu felt that they were just a way of acting coquettishly.

She suddenly understood.

My little disciple deserves to know everything that happened back then, and I shouldn't keep living in her misunderstanding.

But what the senior sister did was entirely for herself. She was the one who caused the trouble and the real murderer who killed her disciple.

"Ningzhu, don't be angry. I can show you the past, but if you want to complain, you can vent it on me, okay?"

She tried to discuss it, but Qi Ningzhu remained silent. After a while, he said in a muffled voice, "Let's talk about it later."

Wait until she understands the truth, and then decide how to deal with it.

Bai Yunshu slowly let go of her, clasped his fingers with hers with one hand, and covered her eyes with the other.

"Close your eyes, calm your mind, and follow my will. I will lead you to find the truth of all those years."

Qi Ningzhu felt that everything in front of her eyes was dark, and then she saw Geng Jihuan and Bai Yunshu.

The sky was black and red at this moment, and the crows were circling for a long time, their cries were particularly sad. Bai Yunshu stood on the edge of the peak, looking at the devastated earth.

The Demon Lord is about to be born, the demon spirit is exposed, the battle between immortals and demons is about to break out, mortals are fragile and are always killed by demons, and they have already damaged themselves, with cries everywhere.

Many mortals petitioned, and the Heaven sent down an order to subdue the demon, which was accepted by Bai Yunshu.

Geng Jihuan walked forward worriedly and spoke anxiously.

"Junior sister, are you really going? I can't bear to leave you. After all, you are as righteous as Master..."

She never liked to talk about sadness, but if she didn't say it now, there would probably be no chance.

Bai Yunshu turned around, holding the glowing Demon-Subduing Order in his hand, with a smile on his lips, and he looked extremely gentle.

In fact, it was not because she was righteous, but because she had to do so.
