Chapter 44



The sudden clash of swords between the two men attracted the attention of everyone present. Everyone was curious and also looked forward to their fight.

It's always fun to watch the fun.

When Lingluo and Congxiu passed by each other, she retracted her sword and walked away without changing her expression.

Congxiu was stunned for a moment, turned sideways to look at her, frowning slightly.

In his opinion, Lingluo was just provoking him.

But the powerful and domineering sword force also aroused the fighting spirit in his heart.

Lingluo just wanted to scare him.

Thinking back to the past, I always felt that this sword couldn't hurt Yue Liangze so easily.

That man is really dull and stupid.

If you don't ask, he won't tell you even if he dies. If you ask, he won't tell you and he won't explain it clearly.

She asked Yue Liangze how Congxiu won, but he didn't answer her at all and just covered her eyes.

In the end, Lingluo got angry and laughed at him, saying that he deserved to lose to Congxiu and would be laughed at by people from other immortal sects for the rest of his life.

Yue Liangze still didn't answer.

He covered Lingluo's eyes and sighed imperceptibly, "Let's talk about something else."

"What?" Lingluo asked fiercely, "What can I talk about with you?"

Her eyes were covered, so she couldn't see Yue Liangze's expression at the moment.

I only heard Yue Liangze whisper: "It was I who offended yesterday."

Ling Luo couldn't help but laugh: "You want to clear yourself of the word offense? Master Danshui, what would the twelve major sects think if they knew what you did to me last night?"

"I can guess that they will scold you for being shameless, bringing disgrace to the reputation of the Immortal Sect, being self-degrading, shameless, and unworthy of the nobleness in their hearts—"

Before she could finish her words, someone leaned over and kissed her.

Lingluo opened her eyes wide and heard Yue Liangze say in a hoarse voice: "Let them think whatever they want."

"Aren't you going to use me to practice your widow's peak? No need to use the aphrodisiac poison, I'll practice with you."

Who was the person who told her not to practice?

The pride of this immortal sect has truly fallen.

The mocking smile on Ling Luo's lips was sealed by his kiss.

At that time, she really decided to refine Yue Liangze.

But later found out:

This person is too powerful to be refined.

Yue Liangze took advantage of her inability to refine it and dared to make such a boast, but he really did whatever he wanted during those days.

Thinking about it now, Lingluo always feels that she made a wrong decision at that time.

What men say really cannot be trusted.

One second he was telling you that he would never let you master this skill as long as I was around, and the next second he was giving in to depravity and said gently, "I'll practice with you."

It's really despicable.

Lingluo was complaining in her heart and came to the aisle of the stands, but was blocked by someone.

Su Shang stood in front, biting his lip tightly, his eyes hesitant, and said timidly: "Ling, Lingluo..."

Lingluo stopped and looked up.

"Can I talk to you?" Su Shang spoke in a lower voice as he spoke. He was very nervous, with sweat on his palms.

In her previous life, Lingluo rejected her.

As a result, she missed out on learning a certain truth, and it was Yue Liangze who told her the truth a long time later.

It was this truth that made her spare Su Shang when she massacred the Xiaoyao Sect.

"Where shall we talk?" Lingluo said.

In this life, she chose to listen to Su Shang himself.

Su Shang was surprised and excited to see her agree, and said hurriedly: "It's fine over here, it won't take you long."

The two went outside the arena.

The sun was shining brightly at noon. Lingluo stood under the shade of a tree and turned around to ask, "What are you talking about?"

Su Shang grabbed his sleeve and mustered up the courage to say, "I thought you looked familiar before, so I wondered if it was you... Now that you've become very powerful, you won't be bullied anymore. If Senior Brother Chen knew, he would be very happy."

Lingluo listened in silence.

When she was fourteen years old, she and her sister Yuzhi were homeless on the streets, living in the alleys and begging for food.

My sister is frail and sickly, and cannot speak because of a knot in her heart. Lingluo was caught by Senior Brother Chen when she went out to steal buns that day, so she was spared from being beaten by the shop owner.

Senior Brother Chen helped her wipe the dirt off her face and said with a smile, "You ran so fast just now, you have a good physique."

At that time, Senior Brother Chen was just a teenager of seventeen or eighteen years old.

However, he was gifted and talented in cultivation, and had a relatively high status among the disciples of the Xiaoyao Sect.

Senior Brother Chen said that Yuzhi was like his deceased younger sister, who could not speak and was a mute.

Lingluo retorted in her heart, my sister is not mute.

Senior Brother Chen felt sorry for the two of them as they had nowhere to go, so he took them back to Xiaoyao Sect.

At the gate of Xiaoyao Sect, Lingluo saw Jinyuan for the first time.

The girl was wearing the golden dress that she had worn before. The gold ornaments hanging on her wrists and neck sparkled, and the jade hairpin in her hair was extremely valuable and rare.

"Brother, you're so slow to come back." Jin Yuan smiled at Brother Chen who had returned. When he noticed the two girls behind him, his expression immediately changed, and he showed his disdain without hiding it. "What's wrong with these two dirty country girls? Even beggars followed you to the mountain gate!"

"Jinyuan, how can you say that to someone?" Senior Brother Chen led the two little girls' hands into the mountain gate and said to Su Shang behind them, "Su Shang, take them to wash and change them into clean clothes. I've already bought them."

"Brother!" Jin Yuan said unhappily from behind, "You've never bought me any clothes!"

The days in Xiaoyao Sect were not very happy, because Jinyuan often came to cause trouble and make trouble, but at least there was no need to worry about starving or freezing, and being laughed at was fine.

Besides, Senior Brother Chen slowly recovered Yuzhi's health. She was no longer as fragile as before, and her complexion was much better.

Lingluo was truly grateful to him.

She likes her second senior brother Yu Xiu, and she also sees the shadow of senior brother Chen in Yu Xiu.

Just as gentle and kind.

Lingluo believed that after her sister recovered, she would wait for some time to resolve her emotional issues so that she could speak again.

Even if she is alone, she can protect Yuzhi.

Because of this desire to protect others, she accepted Brother Chen's suggestion to practice Taoism and swordsmanship.

Yuzhi's emotional knot made it difficult for her to speak.

Lingluo's heart knot prevented her from holding the sword again.

When she was finally able to hold the sword without shaking, and was thinking about becoming stronger to protect her sister from suffering, Yuzhi left her forever.

Lingluo couldn't accept it.

What is even more unacceptable is that Yuzhi died in such a humiliating manner.

It rained that day. Jinyuan met the dead girl in the restaurant. He was very satisfied and took a carriage back to the mountain gate.

He was stopped by Lingluo on the way.

She asked Jinyuan: "Why?"

Jin Yuan said impatiently, "Why? What I want can only be mine. No one can snatch it from me."

"It's all your fault that you two sisters are blocking my way. You are not worthy of competing with me, but you still want to get something that doesn't belong to you."

Jinyuan was in the carriage, looking at her from behind the curtain, his eyes mocking, "Who are you trying to scare with your hands that can't even hold a sword?"

Ling Luo's hands were shaking because the spiritual power that suddenly erupted in her body was surging and roaring, making her want to find an outlet to vent.

Her eyes were red and full of murderous intent.

The sword in his hand responded to the owner's heart and desires, and a passing sword wind split the carriage in half.

The horse ran away in panic, and Jinyuan fell off the cart due to carelessness and was very angry.

"You--" Before she could finish her angry words, she was frightened by the oncoming sword intent and hurriedly drew her sword to block it.

Ling Luo just wanted to kill her at that time.

She didn't even think about the moves in her hands, the power of her sword, or the consequences of offending the Xiaoyao Sect.

As long as Jinyuan dies.

Jinyuan scolded loudly, but soon began to cry and beg for mercy. Her previous arrogance was completely gone. The sharp sword cut through her flesh and pierced her skin, causing her to look ugly in pain.

"Please let me go... Lingluo, I was wrong... Please let me go, I will definitely..."

The sword cut off the girl's head.

Ling Luo was so bloodthirsty that the sudden burst of power was no longer under her control. Her body was taken over by violence and rage. She only held the sword in her hand and fought her way out of Xiaoyao Sect.

The unusual fluctuation of spiritual power made Xiaoyao Sect notice that something was wrong, and they quickly sent people to check. Rong Xian told them in tears that Jinyuan died at the hands of Lingluo.

The Great Elder was furious, and the Xiaoyao Sect sent dozens of experts to give chase.

"When Senior Brother Chen learned about Yuzhi's incident that day, he was terrified and looked for you for a long time. The Great Elder wanted to fight you to the death. He knew that you would definitely not be able to defeat the Great Elder, nor could you escape the pursuit of many masters of Xiaoyao Sect, so he went to beg the Great Elder and the Sect Master, knelt outside the temple for a whole night, and was punished with a whip."

As Su Shang said this, tears welled up in his eyes and he looked very sad.

She raised her hand to wipe her tears and choked up, "He said he was sorry for Yuzhi and for you. He was wrong and failed to protect you."

Lingluo listened with a blank expression.

That day in the Tianji interrogation hall of Dongdao Island, Rong Xian accused Brother Chen word for word, saying that he blamed himself for Jinyuan's death and finally committed suicide.

She believed it before.

Lingluo thought that she had killed Jinyuan, making it difficult for Senior Brother Chen, who had taken her and Yuzhi in, to face the Xiaoyao Sect and be unable to explain, so she ended her life.

Until that year when she went to Xiaoyao Sect with murderous intentions, she was stopped by Yue Liangze halfway up the mountain.

Ling Luo held the sword, her eyes were filled with hostility, and she said calmly, "Get out of the way."

Yue Liangze, wearing a green robe and holding a sword, also said calmly: "I'm not here to stop you."

Ling Luo raised her eyes to look at him: "Then why are you here?"

Yue Liangze said: "When the Qishan Demon Rebellion broke out, I saved a person from the Xiaoyao Sect. Her name was Su Shang."

Ling Luo curved her lips and said sarcastically, "You want to save her from me again today? Master Danshui is really gentle and affectionate."

"She told me that there was a senior brother named Chen in Xiaoyao Sect who saved you." Yue Liangze said calmly without getting angry, "When you left Xiaoyao Sect, this senior brother Chen knelt down and begged his master to let you go. He also regretted that he could not protect you and Yuzhi, and felt that all the fault was his own."

The voice in my memory from my previous life overlaps with the voice of the person in front of me at this moment.

Su Shang looked at her with tears in his eyes and said, "Senior Brother Chen really blames himself too much. He failed to protect his mute sister, and he also failed to protect Yuzhi who also lost her family and could not speak——"

"He told the Sect Master that he was willing to die to repay Jin Yuan's life for yours, and only asked him not to embarrass you again."

Yue Liangze's voice said: "Maybe others think he died of self-blame, but you should know why he really died."

"I know there is no possibility of reconciliation between you and Xiaoyao Sect, but Senior Brother Chen... at least I want you to know why he died." Su Shang wiped his tears and looked at Lingluo firmly, "He stood by your side until his death. Lingluo, maybe others may misunderstand that he did it for Jinyuan, but you must know that Senior Brother Chen wanted to protect you."

The sky that day was not as bright as it is today, but was covered with dark clouds.

After Yue Liangze finished speaking, he stepped aside.

Ling Luo clenched her sword tightly and said fiercely: "Who asked you to tell me this?"

Yue Liangze glanced at her and said, "I don't want to tell you how good other men are to you."

The dark clouds covered all the light.

It also buried many words in her heart.

Today the sun is shining brightly, the sky is blue and the clouds are white, and the breeze is gentle.

Lingluo looked into Su Shang's tearful eyes, bowed her head slightly, and said, "Thank you."
