"The barrier above was not set by me." Jiang Jiulai listened to their words and explained.
The disciple was stunned when he heard him say this. He asked in disbelief, "You didn't set it up? How is that possible?"
Jiang Jiulai lowered his eyes, glanced at the woman beside him, and replied calmly, "I don't know who deliberately set up that formation to attract those of you who want to exorcise demons so that you can get rid of me. Because of the formation, I can only move in Wanhe Town."
After hearing his explanation, Zhao Yuyue suddenly remembered why this man did not attack him last night. It turned out that he just wanted to confirm the situation.
"You are a monster, how can we believe what you say?" Some disciples firmly believed that their judgment was correct.
Jiang Jiulai raised his eyes and looked directly at the other party: "Do you think you can still talk to me now if I really want to kill you?"
"you!"
Chu Yanyan listened in and saw that these young disciples were about to get angry again, so he scolded them, "That's enough. You've been trapped in the brocade bag for several days. First, report to the sect that you're safe and find an inn to rest. The incident in Wanhe Town is indeed a bit strange and requires further investigation."
The disciples opened their mouths, but finally gritted their teeth, bowed their heads and clasped their fists: "Yes, Brother Zihe."
"Yu Yue, take them to the inn." Chu Yanyan looked at Zhao Yu Yue who was standing beside him and gave the order.
Zhao Yuyue was originally sitting with his arms crossed, thinking about something, when Chu Yanyan suddenly called him over. He didn't really want to leave, but he didn't want to resist Chu Yanyan's order, so he could only accept it with a bitter smile: "Yes, Senior Brother."
After Zhao Yuyue led the five disciples out, the room became quiet again.
Qin Chunyu bent down, groped on the ground, and picked up the flute that had fallen on the ground: "Now that the matter has come to light, is there anything else, Taoist priest?"
"Do you think this matter is as simple as it seems?" Chu Yanyan did not rush to answer, but asked her back.
Qin Chunyu clutched the flute in his hand, a look of confusion on his face for a moment: "I don't know either. Alai and I just want to live ordinary lives. Why do we have to suffer those people's schemes for no reason?"
Jiang Jiulai took a moment to calm down, adjusting his own demonic power to replenish the internal injuries on his body. Then he supported the woman beside him and walked to the table to sit down. He said to Chu Yanyan with a sullen face, "Perhaps you are right. The people behind this want to get rid of me in this way. Their target is me."
"Then what is your identity?" Chu Yanyan was tired of standing, so she sat down on the original chair and asked him.
Jiang Jiulai was silent: "Chunyu, let me help you go back to the house to rest." Obviously he didn't want the woman next to him to know his identity.
Qin Chunyu shook her head: "Just tell him straight." How could he have hidden Jiang Jiulai's identity from her? He already knew it a long time ago.
"Um."
Seeing that she refused to leave, Jiang Jiulai gave up. "I am the child of a snake king and a human. Thirty years ago, the demon world broke through the barrier and came to plunder Jiangbai County. Those monsters acted recklessly. Among them, the lewd snake king took my mother by force. After the monsters were driven back, my mother became pregnant with his child. During that plunder, my grandparents were killed by those monsters."
"My mother lived alone and didn't know she was pregnant until she noticed her belly was growing bigger. Then she realized it, and she didn't want to live anymore. She didn't want to give birth to this child born from a union with a monster. But later, she gave birth to me anyway. She raised me for less than three years before she died. She told me all those things before she died."
"I didn't want to accept this fact, but the changes in my pupils and the increasingly obvious changes as I grew older told me I wasn't a normal person. Later, I walked towards the area where humans lived, preparing to return to my mother's hometown, but because of my differences, I was always rejected by those people. Then, a wandering Taoist priest sealed my cultivation meridians, making me like an ordinary person. After that, I met Chunyu, who had become blind. It was Chunyu who lifted the seal on my meridians and restored them to normal. I began to explore and cultivate, and have been doing so until now."
His tendons and meridians were sealed by a wandering Taoist priest.
Chu Yanyan raised his eyebrows slightly. For some reason, the face of his master Ling Zhenzi appeared in his mind.
"So, who wants to frame you?"
"The remnants remaining in the demon world still have connections with the demon world. Although I was born from the union of the demon king and a human, the demon power I possess makes the heirs over there wary of me. But they don't want to expose their target so quickly, so they designed to let the cultivators kill me." Jiang Jiu said with a sneer. Whoever wants to go to the demon world, those monsters must think highly of themselves.
Chu Yanyan suppressed the shock in her heart. Oh my goodness, it turned out that the demon world was trying to make a comeback again. Such an earth-shattering event. If Jiang Jiu hadn't said this, by the time they found out about it, it would have been too late. "Since you have discovered something, why don't you tell the other sects? After all, if the demons attack, your peaceful life will no longer exist."
How could Jiang Jiulai not understand what Chu Yanyan said: "But I am a person with monster blood. If I could tell you, I would be dead before I could even say it."
How could he not know the hatred that ordinary people and cultivators felt towards monsters? They plundered their resources, killed their loved ones, and destroyed their homes. However, some cultivators killed monsters with evil spirits without any discrimination. He hated those monsters, but when it came to killing himself, he also got angry.
Chu Yanyan nodded. Jiang Jiulai's words made sense. "If that's the case, then you and Pharmacist Qin are in great danger. If the demon world's conspiracy succeeds, it will be impossible for you to live a peaceful life. I think we can cooperate."
Hearing Chu Yanyan's talk of cooperation, Jiang Jiulai showed surprise on his face: "Oh? Aren't you afraid that I'm lying to you?"
Before Chu Yanyan could say anything, Qin Chunyu said, "Okay, Alai, stop joking."
"Spring rain."
Worry appeared on her face. She originally thought that he was just an ordinary enemy, but now he was involved in such a big thing.
She grabbed the man's arm and looked up at the man next to her. Although she didn't know what her Alai looked like, she could imagine him: "Alai, no matter what, I will believe you. I don't want you to leave me either."
They were trapped here by the sorcery. If it weren't for Chu Yanyan, if a cultivator with high cultivation level came here, the consequences would be disastrous.
