Chapter 307
If Ji Lingwu is the most aloof peak master in the entire Tianyi Sect, then Jingyi of Danchi Peak has the most fiery temper.
To Ji Lingwu, Jingyi was merely her senior sister.
But for Jingyi, Ji Lingwu was her mortal enemy.
Having cultivated under Ji Lingwu's brilliance since childhood, she constantly compared herself to Ji Lingwu, but lost every time. What angered her most was that whenever she was defeated, Ji Lingwu always seemed calm and collected.
Lingwu knew that Ji Lingwu was not indifferent to this matter...
She had no idea about Jingyi; she was fighting against her.
Two things completely caused Jingyi to unilaterally break off relations with Ji Lingwu:
First, Jingyi, who dressed up for her lover, was told bluntly by the taciturn Ji Lingwu, "You don't look good like this," after she put on heavy makeup.
Secondly, when Jingyi later became Daoist partners with that person, everyone congratulated her on their wedding day, but Ji Lingwu coldly said, "He is not a suitable match for Senior Sister."
Later, whenever Jingyi saw Ji Lingwu, he would always exchange a few sarcastic remarks, and he never went up her Half Moon Peak again.
According to the original timeline, Ji Lingwu was still in seclusion trying to break through to the Tribulation stage, so she missed the opportunity to be taken to the door by the Jingyi.
The next time I heard about Jingyi, it was from the sect leader who said that after she drew her sword and killed her Daoist partner, she self-destructed and died.
Thinking of this, and considering Ji Lingwu's confusion and sorrow at the time, Lingwu no longer hesitated and stepped out of the cave.
It might be related to this matter.
Jingyi wore a crimson dress, her long hair tied up with a fiery red ribbon. Half Moon Peak was covered in snow all year round, and her outfit was truly eye-catching on the snow.
In the past, Jingyi would have been aloof and awkward when she saw Ji Lingwu, but today her beautiful face was filled with sorrow.
When she saw the cave dwelling open, she was stunned for a moment before taking a hesitant step forward, her head bowed the whole time.
Ling Wu took the initiative to ask, "Senior Sister, what brings you to Half Moon Peak?"
An awkward expression crossed Jing Yi's face. "Just because there's nothing wrong, does that mean I can't come to Half Moon Peak? Besides, I was just... just passing by!"
"Oh," Ling Wu replied.
Half Moon Peak and Danchi Peak are located to the south and north respectively, and I don't know how I passed by them.
“…You!” Jingyi raised her head, speechless.
The words he was about to say were swallowed back when he met Ling Wu's gaze.
Ling Wu wore an ice-blue dress, and as the cold wind blew, the lotus patterns on the dress became shimmering and colorful. Her clothes fluttered, making her look like a fairy.
The woman was as aloof and distant as ever, but a powerful aura emanated from her, making Jingyi tremble with fear and dare not act recklessly.
After forcing herself to calm down, she realized that Ji Lingwu was even more beautiful now. Even a cold gaze could make people's eyes sparkle.
"Senior Sister," Ling Wu called softly, her tone as familiar as before.
Jingyi then came to her senses, her eyes dimming.
She had competed her whole life but still couldn't compare to her, and now she even needed her help.
Thinking of what she wanted, she no longer hesitated, took off the jade bracelet magic weapon she always wore on her wrist, and handed it to Ling Wu.
Jingyi pleaded in a low voice, "In the past, I acted impulsively and often competed with you for fame and fortune. It was all my fault. Although I regret it now, I still hope you can forgive my previous willfulness."
Lingwu did not accept it, and only said, "I have never been angry with my senior sister."
Hearing her say this, Jingyi, who was previously impressed, would surely think that Lingwu was being sarcastic towards her.
But now, Jingyi has come to his senses after the sect leader's previous admonition.
—Junior Sister is just not good with words, not as complicated as she always thinks.
When she recalled how her junior sister had warned her that she had chosen the wrong person, she thought it was because her junior sister was unhappy to see her happy that she made sarcastic remarks on her wedding day.
Looking back now, I just feel stupid.
Once there is one, there will be two.
Everything in my memory has an answer.
Jingyi felt a pang of sadness, but her request was urgent and she couldn't afford to delay.
She bent her knees and was about to kneel, but just as her knees were about to touch the cold ground, she was lifted up by a warm sensation.
Before she could even feel moved, Lingwu helped her up and said, "Senior Sister's cultivation is not high. After I passed my tribulation, the spiritual energy here has not yet dissipated. Kneeling at this time will damage Senior Sister's cultivation."
"..." Words of surprise and emotion stuck in his throat.
As expected of Ji Lingwu, her words were as harsh as ever.
Seeing that she didn't speak, Lingwu said again, "Senior sister, just say what you have to say. I still need to cultivate."
Jingyi couldn't care less about anything else. "My child..." She had just started to say "child" when her throat tightened with emotion.
But she quickly composed herself and continued, "He obtained the ancient phoenix inheritance in the secret realm, but after returning, he lost consciousness, all his meridians were destroyed, his dantian was depleted, and he was on the verge of death."
"I consulted various ancient prescriptions and searched for all the world's most precious treasures, but all to no avail."
"The last method is the phoenix's rebirth, but there are also rules to follow in rebirth."
"The phoenix belongs to the fire element, which is the ice element spiritual power that is mutually reinforcing and restraining. Perhaps only this can activate the remaining phoenix bloodline in his body and thus fully unleash it, so that there is a glimmer of hope for rebirth."
"And you are the only one in the entire cultivation world with a pure ice-type spiritual root, and your cultivation is extraordinary."
After explaining the whole story, she pleaded through her tears, "Senior sister, I can only beg you, I'm really at my wit's end. If you're willing to help me this time, I'll serve you faithfully from now on!"
"Anyone whose sword you point at will be my enemy in this life!" Her eyes reddened, but she held back her tears.
As soon as Jingyi finished speaking, Lingwu nodded. Lingwu had already prepared to agree when she mentioned the phoenix bloodline, because this bloodline would become a great help to Baiyu in the future. However, Jingyi kept talking and didn't give her a chance to speak.
Upon seeing this, Jingyi was overjoyed but couldn't utter a single word. He could only reach out and grab Lingwu's arm to leave.
The moment he touched Lingwu, an extremely terrifying ice-type spiritual energy flowed into her fingertips.
Fortunately, in the next instant, the icy spiritual energy, under Ling Wu's control, turned into a cool temperature and slowly receded from her fingertips.
"Let's go, Senior Sister." Seeing Jingyi frozen in place, Lingwu finally spoke.
Jingyi suddenly came to her senses and was about to let go.
But this time, Ling Wu took the initiative to grab his hand.
"Junior nephew will surely be safe and sound." Ling Wu's voice was much gentler. Upon hearing this, she took the initiative to pull her towards Dan Chi Peak.
The anxiety and fear that had gripped me for days finally subsided with this blessing, and the tears that had been suppressed finally burst forth.
With Junior Sister being so powerful, her child will surely survive this life-or-death ordeal!
The man in the moon-white robe suddenly bleeds from his mouth while performing his calculations. He quickly adjusts his breathing to calm his internal spiritual energy.
After a long while, he opened his eyes, his gaze still filled with lingering turmoil.
Who altered the calamity that befell the Tianyi Sect?
He muttered to himself, then swallowed the metallic taste in his throat, closed his eyes again, and continued to work out the calculations in his hands. Finally, he spat out a mouthful of blood.
Only then was the person's name deduced.
Junior Sister, Ji Lingwu.
It was someone he had expected, yet also someone he hadn't.
Meanwhile, Ling Wu, who was pulling Jingyi along, glanced in that direction as the man deduced her.
Jingyi also looked over and took the initiative to answer her question: "The sect leader is currently in seclusion. If you want to find him, Junior Sister, after I finish today's business, I will guard your senior brother's cave day and night!"
"Once Senior Brother emerges from seclusion, I will immediately take him to see you. Junior Sister, you only need to focus on your cultivation!"
