Chapter 78 Chapter 78 "Guess what they are doing now...
There was still a dagger stuck in Yao Ning's abdomen, and her whole body looked like she had been fished out of a pool of blood. The zombie didn't even need to activate his demonic energy, he only needed ordinary weapons to take her life in an instant.
She has not forgotten the hostility between the two.
However, what was even more embarrassing was that he not only saw the severe injuries on her body, but also the scars on her heart.
Yao Ning asked for help from Jiangcan because he didn't want Chen Qian to see his miserable state.
However, she only realized at this moment that she also didn't want to be seen by her former enemy, the silkworm.
She had been pretending to be calm, as if everything in front of her was not enough to make her sad, and she wanted to retain the last bit of dignity for herself.
However, when Jiangcan asked this question and asked her to make a decision, Yao Ning knew that her disguise was so poor and her situation was so miserable.
It’s no wonder she was afraid of being laughed at by them. Even she couldn’t help laughing at herself, wondering why she had fallen to this point.
Yao Ning's eyes were blank for a moment, and he said softly, "Protect me."
Jiangcan was a little surprised: "Your child with Shen Qian..."
"I may not mean much to him, but that doesn't affect my love for him." Yao Ning let out a long breath, his voice trembling. "I'm sorry, but I can't keep it."
"And I have more important things to do."
Jiangcan knew that Yao Ning was talking to the child she believed existed.
She did not vent her anger on it because of Shen Qian's ruthlessness, nor did she give up on herself because of blind maternal love.
Jiangcan felt that perhaps his assessment that she was indulging in love and unable to shoulder important responsibilities was too arbitrary.
His fingertips moved, and for a moment, a strange discomfort passed through his heart, making him want to tell her the truth.
But he soon made his decision.
"Okay, I'll do my best to protect you."
He is the king of the demon world. The survival of all creatures in the demon world is far more important to him than Yao Ning.
Yao Ning closed his eyes.
She knew that Jiangcan's help came at a price, but that would come after she stood up again.
Jiangcan looked at Yao Ning for a moment, reached out to pick up the mask, and was about to put it on when he stopped.
He thought of the glimmer of light that flashed in Yao Ning's lifeless eyes when the mask was removed, as if a dying kitten had seen something strange.
Jiangcan's fingers stroked the mask twice. He had worn this mask for too long, so it felt strange to reveal his true appearance.
He lowered his eyes for a moment and put the mask aside.
He used his magic energy to check Yao Ning's injuries. As soon as he probed into his tendons and veins, he frowned.
Things were much more serious than he thought.
*
A strange confrontation formed between Chen Qian and Meng Yaoguang.
In the silence, behind Meng Yaoguang, Miss Liu from the Weishui Sword Sect's wandering gaze suddenly stopped, and then she narrowed her eyes slightly.
She saw someone she knew.
Adu.
Or should I call her Du Fengyan.
On the Ice and Flame Mirror in the Demon Realm, Miss Liu had lost all face because of an argument with Yao Ning on the fairy boat. She had experienced the most terrifying scene in her life. Therefore, when the Ice and Flame Mirror trapped everyone, she was the only one who woke up early.
She saw Du Wuzhu of Taohua Temple in the demon world and called Adu "sister".
Cross the masterless, cross the wind and smoke.
Just hearing the name sounds like family.
Miss Liu has experienced so much and is no longer as impulsive as before. If she wants to make an enemy with someone, she must first measure the importance of that person.
At this moment she didn't dare to touch Shen Qian's brow.
But Du Fengyan...
Miss Liu turned her gaze to Shang Linran who was standing next to Adu. Lingfeng was just a businessman with only a few coins. He was not as noble and powerful as Meng Yaoguang.
Miss Liu immediately made up her mind, stood up and pointed at A-Du and said, "She is also colluding with the demon world. I saw it with my own eyes."
This shout stunned everyone, and many eyes turned to look at her. It was the first time that Miss Liu enjoyed the feeling of being the center of attention, and she couldn't help but straighten her chest.
Meng Yaoguang glanced at her and said, "Oh? This fellow Daoist is referring to the former Sect Leader's wife who has yet to marry?"
Adu looked over coldly.
Miss Liu was completely unaware and bowed to Meng Yaoguang: "That's right."
He immediately described in detail what he had seen on the Bingyanjian that day, and at the end he took out a photo bead, and the scene recorded on it was indeed the truth.
This immediately eased everyone's embarrassment.
They didn't dare to challenge Chen Qian, and were humiliated by the three people from the Demon Realm and Chen Qian. Now was the perfect opportunity to attack.
So there was a new round of questioning, but the target was now Adu.
From the moment Miss Liu stood up, Adu wanted to break free from Shang Linran, but Shang Linran always held her hand tightly.
At this time, Shang Linran stepped forward, blocking A'du, and said to everyone with a smile: "Anyone who dares to touch her will be an enemy of Lingfengdi and me, Shang Linran."
His tone was gentle, but this sentence was exactly the same as Shen Qian's threat, even more straightforward and merciless.
Adu's eyes fell on Shang Linran and he couldn't move away for a long time.
A moment later, amidst the clamor, she suddenly shouted, "Whatever is directed at me has nothing to do with Lingfengdi and the Supreme Sect Master."
These cultivators might have been apprehensive, but they didn't take Adu, a nobody, seriously. Someone scoffed, "You say it's irrelevant, then it's irrelevant. Since you're his wife-to-be, who knows if Lingfengdi has already betrayed the righteous path and joined the Demon Lord?"
A fierce look flashed across Adu's eyes, and he smiled softly: "What do you mean by a wife who has not yet married me? I just treat her as a furnace."
Shang turned around and said helplessly: "Adu, don't make trouble."
Ah Du ignored him and firmly broke free from his hand. He looked around and said loudly, "I am from the Peach Blossom Temple in the Demon Realm. The Sect Master, Du Wuzhu, is my elder brother. The Peach Blossom Temple practices dual cultivation and the practice of collecting and replenishing essences. Everyone, everyone is responsible for their own actions. Although I had a brief affair with the former Sect Master, the Lingfeng Land has been passed down for thousands of years and has a clean and upright tradition. Whether or not there is any collusion with the Demon Realm, you all know it well."
After saying that, she slowly retreated, intending to escape when no one was paying attention.
Shang Linran frowned and stretched out his hand——
In a flash, the alliance led by Meng Yaoguang appeared in his sight. Miss Liu from the Weishui Sword Sect stood up and pointed to the open space next to Shang Linran.
"She's also colluding with the demon world. I saw it with my own eyes..."
Miss Liu stopped talking halfway because there was nothing around Shang Linran and no sign of Adu.
She opened her mouth in shock.
Shang Linran sensed the "Years Going Back" at the moment he was distracted, and immediately became angry and furious. He used his spiritual power to fly away, but Adu was no longer in his sight.
Chen Qian was also distracted for a moment.
After being dazed, he saw the scene he had seen before being repeated. The female cultivator from the Weishui Sword Sect stood up, broke the strange silence, and said the words that she had already said once.
In March, the waves are covered with peach blossoms, and the river flows back to its old path.
Looking back over the years - the forbidden technique of Taohua An.
The time that has passed is reversed, and those who have left make their appearance again.
However, the emotions did not subside, still superimposed on the same body and soul.
This feeling of déjà vu instantly reminded Chen Qian of a scene not long ago.
On the top of Zhongze Xizhou Pavilion, when he found Yao Ning, he saw Du Wuzhu's hand on her shoulder.
Anger overwhelmed his reason, and Tingni drew his sword faster than he could think and slashed at Du Wuzhu.
He rarely takes action without weighing the pros and cons.
He kissed Yao Ning in front of Du Wuzhu.
Eager, domineering, uneasy... like a child whose treasure has been taken away, eager to declare his sovereignty.
Why was he so angry that he could no longer control himself?
Chen Qian finally remembered——
Because Du Wuzhu spent a year looking back, he saw with his own eyes twice how intimate Yao Ning was with other men.
Something broke through my chest and was about to burst out.
In the wilderness at night when he was young, he told Chu Liangxiu that he wanted to marry her.
At that time, my mother passed away and my father's spirit was attached to the Pure Heart Lock. The world was cold and the road to heaven was long and hopeless.
The only one who could accompany him was Chu Liangxiu.
The boy didn't know what that little warmth came from, but he held it tightly in his hand like a drowning man grabbing a piece of driftwood.
He never had any romantic feelings for his senior sister.
But when he realized that he liked Yao Ning, he had already fallen deeply in love with him.
He was just an ordinary despicable person. It was true that he had used Yao Ning, but it was also true that he loved her deeply.
Why didn’t you see it clearly?
That year on the banks of the Huai River, he hated Yao Ning's calculations, but the marriage lamp was made by the good karma accumulated by the monks of Brahma Temple from six reincarnations, and it was a predetermined fate that he had long seen.
Fate made Yao Ning appear, leading Chu Liangxiu away and taking over the marriage that was supposed to be between the two of them.
If it weren't for Yao Ning, Chu Liangxiu would have left too.
If Chu Liangxiu doesn't leave, the marriage lamp will only fall on Yao Ning.
Shen Qian staggered two steps and spat out a mouthful of blood.
I understand everything.
He looked up in the direction where Yao Ning left.
But it was too late. He had already pushed Yao Ning out of reach, to the enemy that made him jealous, angry, and worried.
*
The murderous and bloody atmosphere in the attic suddenly disappeared, and Du Wuzhu and Bai Su, who were guarding the door on the left and right, were both stunned.
Bai Su's face turned unhappy. He looked up at the intricately carved house and said, "It's ridiculous that there are houses like this in the Demon Realm."
Du Wuzhu didn't care about Bai Su's mood: "Your Majesty made it for her personally, so it's naturally different from other ones."
Bai Su snorted: "A beautiful girl hidden in a golden house?"
"Your Majesty is not someone who can be moved by sentimental sentiments." Du Wuzhu glanced at Bai Su, hinting, "Don't underestimate him."
Bai Su said indifferently: "You're almost dying of illness, why are you still showing off?"
Du Wuzhu didn't say anything, but Bai Su suddenly looked at him: "You always act so loyal and never make any mistakes, why do you make exceptions for her so many times?"
Du Wuzhu knew what he meant and did not explain.
Bai Su smiled: "I know that you are less likely to be trapped by love than Your Majesty, and you are more likely to be looked down upon than Your Majesty."
Du Wuzhu's eyes, which were hidden in the shadows, suddenly became stern, and then he slowly looked at the nonchalant Bai Su.
He suddenly realized that the person Jiangcan and he should not look down upon the most was Bai Su, who had always been looked down upon by them.
Bai Su didn't care what his words revealed. He always spoke recklessly like this, like a wine barrel with a leak in a sieve, not caring which leak was bigger or more fatal.
"You have a painting of her hanging in your bedroom, and you sleep with her every night. Everyone thinks the romantic and heartless Sect Master Du has fallen for her." Bai Su laughed, "Why didn't I consider that an extremely yang body is a great tonic for the natural Yin soul - you just want to use her as a cauldron?"
Du Wuzhu lowered his eyelids to cover up the strange color that flashed across his eyes.
Bai Su smiled and said, "You said I have figured it out, wouldn't Your Majesty know earlier that practicing dual cultivation with her is truly harmless?"
"Guess—" He glanced at the closed door and continued, "What are they doing now?"
