Chapter 55: Probably because of being a lowly person
Ye Musi's original plan was to prevent Lu Lishen from participating. Lu Lishen had been possessed by a demon and it was not appropriate for him to be exposed too much in front of others.
But now the Elder Hall actually asked Lu Lishen to participate.
He naturally hoped that his Ah Li could participate, but what was the situation now? Lu Li was deeply immersed in the devil. If his devilish aura was not exposed during the competition, then everything would be over.
He calculated the time and realized that the disciple election would be held in ten days. He had originally planned to go to the West Sea after the election, but now it seemed he had no choice...
"If he can't control his demonic aura and hurts someone, the Elders' Hall will kill him." Zhu Jianye raised his voice. It was obvious that this sentence was meant for Lu Lishen to hear. He wanted Lu Lishen to give up when he realized the difficulty.
"Okay." Ye Musi couldn't refuse. After all, all the big and small matters in the valley were basically handled by the Elders' Hall. He was just a valley master with an empty title. He did his job well and attended meetings of the major sects.
After all, he was not without any rights, and they were not completely independent of him. They just didn't let him touch upon the secrets of the valley. Telling him that Hua Jin was an alien was the greatest respect for him.
Ye Musi didn't dare to ask for anything, and he didn't want to know the secrets in the valley.
"Who is Lu Limu?"
Ye Musi was thinking when Zhu Jianye suddenly asked.
"Since you already know Lu Limu, I won't hide it from you. He is A-Li's inner demon."
Zhu Jianye looked at Ye Musi deeply. "He actually has an inner demon. How can he get rid of the demonic aura? Even if he is a spirit bead, as long as the inner demon is there, he cannot completely get rid of the demonic aura in him."
"How will you explain this to the Elders then?"
"I won't bother you with that, Junior Brother. I'll be heading to the West Sea to get the Mermaid Pearl shortly."
Zhu Jianye wanted to say something else to persuade Ye Musi not to make the same mistake again, but when he looked down, he suddenly saw bloodstains on the other person's body, and blood flowing from Ye Musi's left wrist.
He frowned slightly and grabbed Ye Musi's left hand accurately, "What's wrong with your hand?"
He looked closely and saw that the place where Ye Musi's wrist was bandaged with cloth was soaked with red, and there was blood on his palm.
"you!"
"Let go, this is my business, Aye, let go."
Zhu Jianye was afraid of hurting Ye Musi, so he let go of his hand. "What are you doing? Self-harm?" He acted as if he would not give up until the other party gave him an explanation. He drew his sword and pointed it at Lu Lishen, who had his back to them. "Did he do it?"
"Neither. Don't ask. It has nothing to do with you."
Zhu Jianye was so angry that he laughed.
Ye Musi only wanted Zhu Jianye to leave quickly so that he could take Lu Lishen to the West Sea. He originally wanted Lu Lishen to stay in Xishan alone, but looking at Zhu Jianye's attitude, he was worried that if Lu Lishen stayed alone, Zhu Jianye would not let Lu Lishen go.
"Brother, do you know what you are saying? How can your safety have nothing to do with me? You and I are brothers from the same sect, and you are my brother."
Hearing this, Ye Musi felt a little guilty. Zhu Jianye had always treated him very well, but he pushed him away because of his own selfish desires. It was really wrong.
"Aye, I'm sorry."
"If you still consider me your junior apprentice brother, and if you still consider yourself the master of Hidden Valley, then go and report the truth to the Elders."
Ye Musi was in a dilemma. He was not only Zhu Jianye's junior apprentice, but also the master of Yinyou Valley and Lu Lishen's master. He also had to protect his little apprentice.
"Brother, when did you become like this? He hurt you so much, and yet you still wanted to get close to him. You! How can I say anything to you?"
Ye Musi admitted that what Zhu Jianye said was right. He was sick. He just liked to stick to Lu Lishen. Once he decided on a person, he would cling to him. Even if the other person didn't love him anymore, he would still want to be someone who could be used by the other person.
"You and I both understand, so there's no need to explain."
Zhu Jianye looked at Ye Musi, his eyes full of worry and confusion. He had no loved one, did not understand Ye Musi's emotions, and did not understand Ye Musi's obsession with Lu Lishen. Even if the other party had been possessed by a demon, even if the other party had hurt him, he would still come forward to serve him.
If he has a loved one and his loved one does not love him, he will decisively leave and not bother her anymore. He will not be like Ye Musi who is so reluctant to break up.
"Brother, why are you doing this?" Zhu Jianye sighed. "If you continue like this, it will do neither you nor Yinyou Valley any good. Why not just cut it off?"
Ye Musi listened to Zhu Jianye's words and didn't know how to describe his current mood. It's not that he hadn't thought about making a decisive move, but every time he saw Lu Lishen again, his heart would be drawn away involuntarily.
He probably really is a jerk.
"I don't want to give up on him. Since he has accepted me as his master, he will always be my disciple. I am responsible for his demonic possession."
Zhu Jianye hated Ye Musi's love-sick mind. He was speechless and left angrily.
Ye Musi also knew that Zhu Jianye was doing this for his own good, and he felt sorry for Zhu Jianye. He just finally found someone who loved him unconditionally and would always stand by his side, and he didn't want to give up.
He really wanted to stay with Lu Lishen for a long time.
He sorted out his bad mood, tidied himself up casually, and then took Lu Lishen to the West Sea.
Ten days was too short a time, so Ye Musi didn't dare to stop and went straight to the town on the west coast before landing.
He and Lu Lishen stood in a town on the west coast, the sea breeze with its salty and humid scent blowing on their clothes.
Ye Musi looked at the turbulent sea in front of him, but his heart was extremely calm.
This was his second time here. In his previous life, he came here under the pretext of sightseeing.
They originally thought that Lu Lishen would never be possessed by the devil again in this life, but they didn't expect that fate would play a trick on them and bring them here again.
"Why take the risk again? Hand me over, and they won't do anything to you." Lu Lishen stood behind Ye Musi, looking at his slightly lonely back. "If you accidentally awaken the demonic power of the mermaid pearl while taking it, who knows what the consequences will be."
Ye Musi would never know that the reason why Lu Li went deep into the devil in his previous life was because he knew his movements. He knew that Ye Musi came to find the mermaid pearl under the pretext of traveling because he was looking for the turbulent demonic energy in his body because he almost went astray.
At that time, he was very happy that Ye Musi had him in his heart, so he secretly followed Ye Musi. They bypassed the area where the mermaids lived and were almost discovered by the dragons in the abyss. Only then did they arrive at the mermaid holy land, which was also the place where the mermaid pearls were kept.
The inside of the hall was not as dark and unclear as the outside. Instead, there were many night pearls strung together to illuminate the place. On the stone pillar in the center of the hall was placed a mermaid pearl that was emitting a blue light and was more dazzling than any other night pearl here. It was the pearl they were looking for.
Lu Li was hiding in the dark and was attracted by the light, but he soon woke up because when Ye Musi was still ten feet away from the mermaid pearl, he was suddenly sucked in. He had no time to react and followed forward and was also sucked in.
Surrounded by endless water ripples, emitting a soft and mysterious light.
…………
A drop of water fell into the pool, and suddenly a person jumped out from the bottom of the water. His black hair was wet, and he walked slowly towards the shore with his bare chest.
He is Chen Lian, the leader of the Cang Qiong Sect, the leading sect in the world of cultivation. He came to this position by killing his master and brother. He can be said to be a vicious person, and he himself thinks so.
He felt that emotions were the most useless things in the world, so he chose to join the Cang Qiong Sect and took great pains to become the sect master. However, at that time the sect master already had a disciple. In order to become the sect master's chief disciple, he poisoned his senior brother and finally killed his master to become the sect master.
The Cang Qiong Sect takes the Way of Ruthlessness as the foundation of its practice, which is why he chose the Cang Qiong Sect.
He himself is a person born with a spiritual body, and he is also born to feel ruthless, so in terms of ruthlessness, he ranks second in the strength ranking of the cultivation world, and no one dares to rank first.
Chen Lian's appearance was exceptional. His features were deep and delicate, like a meticulously crafted work of art. His eyes were as deep as a cold pond, revealing a kind of indifference and alienation, as if he could see through people's hearts without being tainted by a trace of emotion.
Shen Lian's hair was black and shiny, draped over his shoulders wetly, with water droplets dripping down the ends of his hair, adding a touch of mystery and danger. He was tall and well-proportioned, with well-defined muscles but not appearing too bulky.
After Chen Lian put on the clothes hanging on the screen, he pushed open the bathroom door and walked out, running into Yu Jinlan, the female disciple he had accepted in recent days.
"Master, Master, this is terrible. There's been no news from the disciples we sent to the West Sea a few days ago. It's as if they've vanished without a trace."
Just a few days ago, villagers in the West Sea area sent out distress signals to the Cang Qiong Sect, saying that the mermaids had captured all their relatives.
Chen Lian didn't want to bother with this matter, but the villagers disturbed him many times, and he was really annoyed. He couldn't kill those mortals, so he randomly pointed at a few not-so-smart disciples to see what was going on.
But I never thought...
I think those disciples have little connection with the Cang Qiong Sect.
"Master, what should we do now? Those mortals are about to break through the threshold of the sky."
Chen Lian looked towards the West Sea and said, "You calm her down first. I will go to the West Sea myself."
"Yes!" Yu Jinlan took the order and left.
Chen Lian led a group of disciples to the West Sea and found a town to live in.
According to local villagers, mermaids mostly appear at night. Chen Lian happened to have eaten some sweets, so he thought of going out to relax and pretend to be one.
He came to the west coast, where there was no one. He walked alone, enjoying the evening breeze.
The waves gently lapped against the rocks, making a rhythmic sound. Moonlight shone on the sea, creating shimmering waves. His mood seemed to calm down with the tranquility of the night.
Suddenly he noticed a huge reef in the distance emitting a faint blue light. He slowly approached and found a blue-tailed mermaid leaning against the reef with wounds all over its body.
The moment the mermaid saw Chen Lian, she blinked her eyes, and the scales at the corners of her eyes emitted a rainbow-blue light, looking so beautiful.
