As soon as the Divine Lord charged forward, Ji Xiaoyao immediately leaped up to dodge, and then the black sword in his hand appeared. At the same time, he let out a roar and met the Divine Lord's attack.

Shang Lin felt a chill run down his spine upon seeing this; their General Ji was gone!

Alas, Qiu Niang was the first disciple to come into contact with me, and also the first to leave, but at least she is still alive. But Ji Xiaoyao is like this now, he will be the second to leave, and... he cannot live!

What is it like to personally end the life of your own disciple? Especially when this end isn't because the other party committed some heinous crime, and you even had a part of the reason for it.

How could she face Qiu Niang after this? This man who had waited for her for hundreds of years, searched for her for hundreds of years, was ended by her, the very benefactor she had acknowledged. How cruel!

Or perhaps we should seal him away, like the little turtle. Maybe one day Ji Xiaoyao will still be Ji Xiaoyao, remembering his centuries-old obsession, and willingly stay by Qiu Niang's side.

Thinking this way, Shang Lin felt much better, but in an instant, his mood was like a roller coaster ride. Sure enough, the longer he spent in the human world, the more he resembled an ordinary person.

The battle between the Divine Lord and Ji Xiaoyao was so intense that it attracted the attention of Lü Yao and A Chou, and even Xiao Bai was awakened, looking over with a pair of bewildered, light blue eyes.

Ah Chou hurriedly asked Shang Lin, "Sect Master, should we go and help?"

"No need." Shang Lin reached out to Ah Chou, "Let's go paint a picture."

"ah?"

Ah Chou was in a daze. The Divine Lord and Ji Xiaoyao were fighting. The Sect Master neither tried to stop the fight nor helped. Instead, he wanted to paint. What was the reason for this?

Wait a minute, are you going to draw a picture of them fighting? What for?

However, whatever the sect leader says is law, and as a servant, one must naturally obey. "Alright."

However, as soon as Ah Chou finished speaking, Xiao Bai suddenly darted out, baring its sharp teeth at Ji Xiaoyao and roaring angrily, as if it was about to rush up and tear him apart at any moment.

Shang Lin was startled. As expected, a demon beast is a demon beast. Even as a cub, even if it is seriously injured, it can still fight to the death for the people it recognizes.

The deity was also startled. He quickly retreated to Little White's side and stroked its head reassuringly. "Good boy, good boy, good boy, don't scare people with your appearance. Your childish voice has no intimidating power at all. On the contrary, it will only bring trouble upon yourself."

Shang Lin almost knelt before the God. Who would suddenly retreat to comfort a cub in the heat of battle? Was leaving his back exposed to give the opponent a chance to kill him?

And where is the babyish sound in Xiaobai's bark? Are you deaf? Or are you comparing it to your past life?

However, while inwardly cursing, Shang Lin quickly stepped in front of the unreliable Divine Lord and threw array flags at Ji Xiaoyao. Before sealing this person into the painting, he would continue to trap him with the trapping array.

However, as soon as the first array flag landed, the black sword in Ji Xiaoyao's hand vanished rapidly, and the black markings on his face also slowly disappeared, along with his deathly pale complexion...

His complexion had turned a somewhat sickly white, and his eyes no longer looked strange. Ji Xiaoyao even clasped his hands in a salute to Shang Lin, saying, "Thank you, Sect Master, for helping me advance."

Shang Lin paused as he was about to throw the battle flags. What did that mean?

After calming down Xiaobai, the Divine Lord said to Shang Lin, "Although Ji Xiaoyao has advanced, I suggest you still use a trapping formation to confine him for a while to prevent any further unforeseen events. He can also continue to stabilize his cultivation within the trapping formation, which is a win-win situation."

Hearing the God's words, Shang Lin finally came to her senses, but her eyes remained fixed on Ji Xiaoyao, and she asked him again, still unwilling to give up, "Where is Qiu Niang?"

Ji Xiaoyao paused, then looked at Shang Lin with a wry smile, and slowly said, "Qiu Niang is my wife. We were a loving couple, but we were often separated. Later, I died in battle, and she followed me in death. My obsession remained, and my soul was immortal. I searched for her while cultivating, and I have been searching for hundreds of years. Now I have finally found her, but not only has she forgotten me, she also had to reincarnate as a human. More than a year ago, we reunited because of the sect leader, but unfortunately, not long after, her soul became unstable, and the sect leader had to help her reincarnate as a human. I was by her side before, and I was only recently called back by the sect leader. He also gave me Soul Nourishing Pills and Soul Stabilizing Pills and sent me to Situ Pojun's office to eat evil spirits. Now, sect leader, do you believe that I am me?"

At this moment, Shang Lin felt a sense of relief, as if he had survived a disaster. Fortunately, he hadn't impulsively killed Ji Xiaoyao when he was "on the roller coaster," otherwise, he would definitely have developed a mental demon after regaining his senses.

That would truly destroy three people, their newly established sect would crumble, and even the Divine Lord would likely... not to mention the demon cultivators who had formed servitude contracts with him!

Shang Lin, who hadn't just fought Ji Xiaoyao, suddenly felt his legs go weak. He sat down on the ground without any regard for his image, waving his hand at General Ji who came to help him up. "It's nothing, I'm just tired from refining pills and need to rest for a while. But what the Divine Lord said is right, do you agree?" He had no choice but to agree.

Ji Xiaoyao immediately retreated to the spot where Shang Lin had just thrown down the array flag, saying, "I will follow the sect leader's arrangements."

Shang Lin immediately felt relieved. At least Ji Xiaoyao was still Ji Xiaoyao. At this moment, Lü Yao suddenly rushed in front of him and gave him a ginseng that was still dripping with water. "Eat."

Having learned from his previous experience, Shang Lin didn't even look at it this time before putting it to his lips and taking a bite. He then noticed that the ginseng had turned three times redder and was still a little moist.

Shang Lin immediately asked Lü Yao a completely unrelated question, "How did you come up with the idea of ​​cleaning the ginseng?"

Green Jade pointed with its leaf to a distant, shimmering expanse of silver, "Water."

Shang Lin knew that there was water in the Dragon Spirit Tower, but he didn't know when the water started turning into a river. Well, this must be related to his advancement.

But more than that, Shang Lin was curious about Lü Yao. "You even know to wash it with water before giving it to me?" She had been exhausted the last time, so she didn't have the energy to ask such questions.

Green Yao didn't seem to understand Shang Lin's words and just looked at him in confusion. Ah Chou hurriedly said, "I told him that the sect leader is human and has to wash everything he eats."

Oh, by the way, Green One also has a son who's taken for granted.

After eating the ginseng and resting for a while, Shang Lin finally recovered. He finished setting up the array flags that he hadn't finished, patted Xiao Bai's big head, and then said, "I'm leaving. I'll leave the follow-up matters to the Divine Lord."

You think being a hands-off manager is easy? But when he thought of Shang Lin's legs going weak and him sitting on the ground just now, the God chose to remain silent.
