Chapter 34 Yun Ning's Main Storyline. He thought, "Is it all fake?" Zhou...

Zhou Fuling had two mothers. Her elder mother was strict, and her younger mother was gentle. Her father listened to both of them.

At this moment, the young mother's eyes were filled with worry.

Zhou Fuling's heart skipped a beat.

“Let’s go. We can’t be discovered… especially your eldest mother. If she shouts, her men can kill us in an instant.” The younger mother pulled Zhou Fuling along.

She protected her; her scent was sweet, yet tinged with fear.

They were quickly captured. The young mother was pinned to the ground and whipped until her body was covered in bruises.

The eldest mother looked at them coldly.

"Mother, Mother!" Zhou Fuling couldn't bear her young mother's hoarse cries. She stood on the cliff, still struggling, but her heart felt like it was broken.

"Xiao Wu. Look, how your mother died for you."

The eldest mother laughed, "Look at her, how she was subjected to slow slicing."

The young mother was covered in blood, and was tied up to the stones, letting out a scream.

A gash was cut into her chest, and her fingernails were torn off. She screamed in agony:

"Go quickly, go quickly, Fuling!! Please go quickly!"

"What do you want?! Mother, Mother!!" Zhou Fuling roared, asking her great-grandmother.

The eldest mother: "Jump down."

Zhou Fuling turned around in disbelief.

In that abyss, there was boiling black water like magma, and the most vicious formation Zhou Fuling had ever seen.

Zhou Fuling stared silently at her great-grandmother with bloodshot eyes.

"Why are you treating me like this?"

The eldest mother remained silent.

She wondered, am I really a bad person?

Why do I love my mother so much?

She looked again at her mother's cold and ruthless eyes.

Why is she in so much pain?

She jumped down without making a sound.

The instant she descended, Zhou Fuling felt as if her entire body was being swallowed by magma. It was as if her soul had been devoured.

Her spiritual veins were also disrupted, as if sharp thorns had pierced her sea of ​​consciousness. She felt like she was being torn apart.

But she did not die; she was trapped in a painful state of being neither alive nor dead.

It hurts!

But Zhou Fuling remained silent. She thought it was worth it.

She protected the one she loved.

However, in her confusion and pain, she suddenly saw a point of light.

The light was imbued with the power of a father, and she heard the crashing waves, the wind, and the innocent laughter of her young mother, all quietly reaching her ears.

Young mother: "Sister, our children are so innocent. You've achieved your goal, can you rest easy now?"

The other party seemed to be silent.

The young mother sighed softly again: "Why do people always believe in unconditional love? Even our most wicked child thinks so. It's so disappointing... Haha."

“Enough,” the eldest mother said. “After this, she will suffer the pain of countless bones being gnawed away and her spiritual veins being shattered. She will gradually forget us. This place is her lifelong prison and is nothing to worry about. Let’s go.”

"Forget? Sigh, sigh..." The young mother sighed and chuckled softly.

Zhou Fuling sank into that sea of ​​blood, her eyes bloodshot as she stared upwards. She let herself sink.

Big Mother.

Young mother!

Father!

She grasped his hand.

...

Zhou Fuling suddenly opened her eyes.

Her chest heaved as she gasped for breath.

The cave was damp. She lay on the stone slab, drenched in cold sweat, her body huddled together with the moisture, like an infant whose embryo had been suddenly ripped from its shell.

She was trembling all over.

The Devouring God Powder... has been activated again.

The poison was administered beneath the magma, and the excruciating pain severed her spiritual veins once more, rendering her unable to fight for long.

Her hands pressed tightly against the stone, sweat trickled down her eyelashes, and hatred welled up in her eyes.

But it gradually faded away.

Her hands were convulsing, and the thought of her current situation caused her extreme pain once again.

She had been living a peaceful life away from the world, and had reintegrated herself into the safe environment of the embryonic stage.

As a result, the intrigues and conflicts within the Immortal Alliance seemed to be pushing her out again, pushing her back to the time she hated most.

A century has passed, and she is no longer the same person she once was. She doesn't want to get involved in trouble before she has enough strength.

But at that time, the only option was to kill Ning Tingyue.

She probably... guessed who the others were...

Zhou Fuling couldn't breathe.

I closed my eyes briefly.

It took her a lot of effort to stand up again.

...

"Who exactly planted this seedling next to Zou Li?" Zhou Fuling's icy voice rang out.

Inside the cave, Mr. Qing, who had been captured, knelt before Zhou Fuling, his face deathly pale, half of his body stained with blood. He shook his head.

Zhou Fuling gave a cold laugh and said in a low voice:

"I still remember the first time we met."

"Regarding the attack on the Hua family by the Immortal Fish Pond, Zou Li came to make things difficult for me and the three Hua siblings, but we encountered my senior brother, Xu Qingning. The Dragon Guards were about to persuade Zou Li to restrain himself and let the matter rest, but you said something like:"

"—This is Dragon Pool. Does Young Master intend to be bullied here? Dragon Pool has utterly disgraced itself!"

"Zou Li then took action in anger, which caused animosity with the Hua family and deepened his grudge against Xu Qingning."

“Today, when I was first captured by you, I was observing you. The Hidden Heaven Village was empty, a situation that should have made people extremely wary. Only you, with just a few words, made Zou Li abandon his unease and suspicion, and rush straight to me, just to kill me and intensify the conflict between Zou Xu and me.”

"You said you're from the Zou family?"

I don't believe it.

Mr. Qing raised his head, his eyes trembling. Zhou Fuling seemed to have used her killing intent, and Mr. Qing wailed repeatedly, his cries terrifying.

Finally, Mr. Qing uttered a name: "Kuang Yunchu".

"What?"

"It is Kuang Yunchu, the mountain chief..."

Zhou Fuling gazed silently at Mr. Qing.

"Give me the imperial genealogy," she said finally.

Mr. Qing trembled all over as Zhou Fuling snatched the jade tablet.

He fell to the ground.

Zhou Fuling left.

...

Dragon Pool, Immortal Sect.

Xu Qingning lay on the couch, her face pale, surrounded by physicians.

He, however, also fell asleep.

Eight years ago, it was snowing heavily and the sky was dark. His hands were frostbitten and sores appeared. When he stepped into the snow-covered forest, it felt like his bones were going to freeze to pieces.

He was trapped in a maze and walked around many times before he finally got out.

He breathed out the cold air, wrapped himself in a cotton-padded coat, and struggled out of the wind and snow.

Carrying their hunted prey, they finally made it back to the small earthen courtyard at the foot of the mountain.

In the courtyard sat a little girl, equally covered in dust and dirt, with her favorite pear blossom hairpin in her hair, her face pale, and wrapped in a thick cotton-padded coat.

"Fuling, why are you waiting here? Aren't you afraid of getting cold?" Xu Qingning asked in surprise.

She said gently, "I'm waiting for my senior brother."

"I will always wait for my senior brother."

Xu Qingning suddenly woke up and looked up.

The Ice Mirror Peak is currently dark and calm.

He could hear the sound of the cold wind being blocked by the barrier.

He stared upwards, but his eyes gradually filled with bloodlust, and his fingers tightened.

He thought.

Was it all fake? Zhou Fuling. Was the past ten years all a lie?

Is it possible to achieve this level of dedication just by aiming for immortality? Ten years of unwavering devotion, accompanying him and staying by his side.

Thinking about it this way, her acting skills have improved a lot.

A wave of resentment and pain surged up instantly, cutting into my heart like a knife.

Xu Qingning couldn't help but think of Zhou Fuling.

He frowned, unable to breathe for a long time.

The emotions he had ignored during the day suddenly trapped him, rendering him unable to move.

He was unwilling to accept this situation with Zhou Fuling.

Xu Qingning also wanted to get an explanation from her.

But he knew it was impossible. If this happened, as a cultivator, he was destined to be mortal enemies with Zhou Fuling.

He closed his eyes.

-

"The Immortal and the Immortal Master of the Asking Heaven Platform invite the Young Master to come over and discuss the matter of Zhou Fuling together."

Xu Qingning went to the Asking Heaven Terrace.

Zou Lanci did not provide a convincing explanation for the previous events.

Zou Li said he recognized Zhou Fuling, but no one explained what was going on. He simply gathered everyone to surround and attack Zhou Fuling.

The Immortal Alliance fell silent, trembling with fear.

"Ninety years ago, Zou Lanci suddenly sent a large number of people to Zishi Snow Mountain, which is Zishi Ravine, saying that he wanted to subdue the demon... Qingning, do you remember?" Master Xu also flipped out the records.

Xu Qingning was stunned.

He certainly remembered.

He clenched his fists so tightly that his palms were almost bloodless.

Zhou Fuling... disappeared around that time.

What exactly happened to her?

Zou Lanci also sent people to Dongzhou and Nanzhou, ostensibly to maintain peace, but they stirred up a great deal of tension.

[Host, the world line is about to enter the main story arc "The Conquest of the Cloud Tower". Please come and receive your specific mission!]

After leaving the hall, Xu Qingning suddenly opened her eyes.

...

[Host, why do you look so haggard?]

The system seemed somewhat surprised. Since parting ways with Zhou Fuling that day, Xu Qingning had become cold and thin.

Xu Qingning lowered her eyelashes, her gaze indifferent.

The system released more data.

[Host, this is the villain's current data.]
