Chapter 335
Lingwu's skirt swayed slightly as she put away her natal spirit sword, nodding to Jingyi, "Senior Sister."
Then he met Jing Si's gaze, but only for a moment. Jing Si then winked cleverly and smiled shyly.
Ling Wu then looked away and gazed at Song Bai and Bai Yu, who had come looking for her.
"Master!" Song Bai's voice was excited and thrilled.
"Immortal Venerable." Bai Yu lowered his head, hesitating and not daring to raise his head.
Ling Wu responded softly, "I will return home with you."
Bai Yu, with his head down, still didn't look up, but all the suffering he had endured in the secret realm for the past year and a half was wiped away by this cry of "returning home".
He nodded firmly: "Yes."
Returning home with the Immortal Venerable.
Once he left the secret realm, he would have a family and a powerful backer.
Song Bai, however, spoke affectionately: "My disciple has truly missed the snow on Half Moon Peak during these past year and a half."
The moment after the longsword flew away, a man in black robes wearing a fox mask appeared.
The group of people who mistook her for the man in the black robe immediately became alarmed.
Fu Xue couldn't find the figure she was looking for, and countless frustrations welled up inside her.
Seeing everyone staring at her, she released her oppressive aura, making it impossible for them to lift their heads, before slowly opening her lips: "Do all you ugly monsters from the lower realm enjoy staring at people like this?"
She let out another soft hum.
The rogue cultivator, with low cultivation level and no powerful backing, coughed up blood at that "humph"!
Seeing this, she withdrew her oppressive aura with satisfaction. "Next time, if any ugly monster dares to look directly at this holy maiden, I will gouge out your eyeballs and feed them to the fish!"
As soon as she finished speaking, Fuxue calmed herself down and comforted herself: "I can't get angry, getting angry will make me ugly, and if I get ugly, she will look at me even less."
After calming herself down, she asked in a composed manner, "Have you seen any other people in black robes?"
No one responded, but she wasn't annoyed. With a smirk, she muttered to herself, as if it were no surprise, "It's perfectly normal that a bunch of good-for-nothings can't see 'her'."
After speaking to herself, she scanned the sects protected by Venerables one by one, and when she met Lu Li's gaze, her eyes deepened with scrutiny.
The man's eyes seemed to see right through her, which made her somewhat wary.
Lu Li had already withdrawn his desire to catch up with Ling Wu and was now calm, not surprised by Fu Xue's appearance.
He had already anticipated the appearance of this person from the upper realm, and even had the spare energy to spare to protect the other minor sects under the Tianyi Sect.
Fu Xue calmly withdrew her gaze from Lu Li, her eyes filled with nothing but apprehension.
The man in the white robe was quite outstanding, but unfortunately, he was still far inferior to "her".
Fu Xue waved her sleeve, and demonic energy from her hand filled the entire entrance to the secret realm.
The towering black clouds pressed down on all the cultivators below, their power belonging to the upper realm, causing a few cultivators to suddenly kneel on the ground.
Seeing this, Fuxue finally opened her mouth and announced to everyone with great arrogance: "From now on, all demonic cultivators in the lower realm will be under the jurisdiction of this Holy Maiden!"
After she finished speaking, she disappeared without caring whether she had offended the sect or whether the demonic cultivators under her jurisdiction were willing.
Long after she left, a group of people came looking for Lu Li.
"Sect Master Lu, this so-called Holy Maiden is already right in front of us, are we still going to swallow our anger?"
"Yes, Sect Master Lu, the Heavenly One Sect is the head of all sects. If you also sit idly by, what will we do?"
Lu Li stood with his hands behind his back, seemingly oblivious to the scene of them lifting him onto the high stool.
After everyone finished speaking, he said, "Half a month later, you will all come to Tianyi Sect with your respective plans to find me."
After saying this, he turned and left with the Tianyi Sect without waiting for anyone to reply.
The various sects in the cultivation world operate independently, scrambling for resources, and can never unite as one.
It's not impossible to have Tianyi Sect take the lead and be the first to step forward, but the premise is that none of them can be motivated by a desire to reap the benefits without sowing the seeds of success.
He left leisurely, while the men who had spoken first gave him an awkward smile. But as they turned away, their smiles faded, and their faces turned cold.
Lu Li acted as if he couldn't understand what others were saying!
Yes! They admit that they speak in a roundabout way, but all the sect leaders speak like this, so why should Lu Li be different?
Unaware of this scene, Ling Wu returned to Half Moon Peak.
The snow was still falling on Half Moon Peak, but the silver-clad world did not feel oppressive. Especially to Bai Yu, who had just left the secret realm, it was simply a fairyland.
Half-Moon Peak and the Immortal Venerable were the only pure lands in his heart.
Lingwu first met Song Bai.
He first knelt down and said, "Disciple pays respects to the Immortal Venerable."
In a quarter of an hour, I gave a general overview of the secret realm.
Finally, he said, "This disciple has seen that man in black robes again."
Ling Wu's expression remained unchanged as she nodded and replied, "And then?"
Song Bai's expression was complicated. He scratched his head before saying, "He seems to have many admirers, and there's a female demon cultivator in black robes with him. That female demon cultivator's cultivation is profound, and I can't tell the difference."
After saying that, he seemed uneasy and added, "I think this man in black robes, who can walk through a hundred flowers without getting a single petal on him, must not be a good person!"
Ling Wu remained silent for a long time.
Song Bai, sitting below, thought Ling Wu was worried about him, and quickly added, "However, the man in black robes didn't have time to harm you, and the female demon cultivator seemed to love you so much that she said she would protect you if she met you again."
"Oh, by the way, that female demon cultivator also gave my disciple a treasure." He said, handing over the bell.
Ling Wu glanced at it, removed the traces left by Fu Xue on the bell, and then returned it to Song Bai.
After checking on Song Bai's stable cultivation level after his advancement and pointing out some potential problems in his recent cultivation, he finally let him leave.
A short while later, Bai Yu went inside as usual to prepare tea for Ling Wu.
The young man, dressed in a moon-white disciple's robe, exuded an aura as clear as the moon and gentle as a breeze, carrying with it the chill of frost and snow. He kept his head down, unwilling to raise it.
The way he served the tea was so smooth and graceful, it was quite a sight to behold.
Bai Yu on Half Moon Peak voluntarily bowed his head in humility.
"Raise your head." Ling Wu's voice was indifferent.
But Bai Yu felt a little aggrieved at the sound of the landing. He suppressed the moisture in his eyes and slowly raised his head after a long time.
But his eyes remained fixed on the icy blue skirt, not daring to meet the gaze of the woman sitting at the head of the table, who exuded an ethereal beauty.
"How did you get your eyes injured?" Ling Wu asked calmly, her tone showing a hint of concern.
Sensing this hint of concern, Bai Yu quickly lowered his head, not wanting Ling Wu to see his pitiful state, and forced a natural tone:
"Reporting to the Immortal Venerable, it was due to my incompetence that I was accidentally scratched in the eye by a demonic beast in the secret realm."
He waited a long time for the person at the head of the table to reply, and while he felt bitter, he also felt much more relaxed.
The man in black robes was his mortal enemy, and he did not want to involve the Immortal Venerable in the matter.
Moreover, he wants to avenge his family with his own hands!
Ling Wu stood up and slowly approached him. The boy's height had increased considerably, and his moon-white disciple's robe made him look like a snow lotus blooming on a mountaintop.
Unfortunately, its right eye was empty, making it difficult to look directly at.
Bai Yu felt the chill that appeared after Zi Lingwu approached, and his heart was filled with unease, so much so that his fingertips, hidden under his wide sleeves, curled up.
"Immortal Venerable," he called softly.
The woman stopped in her tracks as he had expected, but then he felt a pang of regret.
He liked her closeness, yet he dared not be alone with her in a room when she was near, but he would feel frustrated when she actually distanced herself from him.
Beside the Immortal Venerable, he always felt as insignificant as dust, unworthy of even a glance from her, yet he contradictorily craved her attention.
Ling Wu's fingertips carried icy spiritual power as she touched Bai Yu's empty right eye.
