"Well," Yun Haoran sighed, "It's true that I'm blind, which makes life a little inconvenient for me. I heard that Medical Saint Bai Ziyi has superb medical skills, so I wanted to go and get my eyes cured."
Thinking that it was she who blinded Yun Haoran, Jiang Deng felt a little guilty. "Well, didn't you accept Bai Sitang as your apprentice? For his sake, Bai Ziyi should heal you for free."
Jiang Deng was not lying. In fact, apart from participating in the plan to kill her, the second disciple could be considered a good person. He used to like to heal others for free, and he has not changed this habit yet.
"What a coincidence," Yun Haoran nodded and said, "I thought so too."
Jiang Deng's mouth twitched. "Although I am very satisfied that you are not going to help Old Ancestor Xiahou, but just in case, in order to prevent you from informing on others, it is better to lock you up for a while."
"Shi Tongling, come out and help."
"Okay!"
After communicating with Shi Tongling in the Eight Gates World, Jiang Deng directly released Shi Tongling and said, "Set up a heavenly-level trapping formation that can trap the people inside for ten days."
"Okay, boss."
Without saying anything, Shi Tongling took out the formation flags and started to set up the formation.
Feeling Shi Tongling's sudden appearance, Yun Haoran frowned and became alert.
A powerful person in the Return to Void Realm!
Jiang Deng actually carries around this cheat for being a Return to Void Realm expert? Absurd!
If Jiang Deng was the only one here, he would have been confident that he could escape even if he couldn't defeat him. But now he was a bit unlucky...
Yun Haoran suppressed his panic and vaguely understood something, "Did you really kill the Sword Master?"
"Nonsense," Jiang Deng quickly denied. "You're accusing me without any evidence. This is a frame-up and a false accusation!"
Yun Haoran smiled slightly, "I really don't have any evidence, but if it was really you, Sect Master Jiang, who killed Sword Master, I would like to thank you. To express my gratitude, I can tell you something."
"What's going on?"
"About how to open the Sword Master's treasure house."
Jiang Deng's eyes lit up, "Tell me quickly!"
"Oh, it's easy to open the treasure house. The key is Sword Master's unique killing sword intent. Although there are many sword cultivators who practice the killing sword intent, only Sword Master has fully comprehended the most refined killing sword intent within the sword disk. Therefore, he is the only one in the ten domains who can open the treasure house. No one else can do it, not even the ancestor Xiahou who is at the Tribulation Realm."
Hearing this, Jiang Deng felt a little relieved.
Although she did not specifically practice the killing sword intent, it happened that she swallowed the killing sword intent in the sword plate. This sword intent had the same origin as the third disciple's sword intent, so it could also open the treasure house.
"Okay, thanks."
Jiang Deng smiled with satisfaction. Seeing that Shi Tongling had already set up the formation, he raised his hand and made a gesture of invitation to Yun Haoran, "Then please invite Master Yun to enter the formation. Don't worry, after ten days, the formation will automatically open."
"...It's hard to refuse such a kind offer, so Yun can only obey."
Yun Haoran smiled helplessly and then stepped into the formation.
"Heavenly rank low-grade trapping formation, activate!"
Shi Tongling pinched her fingers and a faint red light lit up, and the formation was activated.
Because this formation has an optical illusion, after the formation was activated, the place returned to its previous state. No matter whether with the naked eye or with spiritual consciousness, the formation could not be seen, even Yun Haoran who was inside the formation could not be seen.
This way, even if the patrol comes here, they won’t be able to find it, unless... Ancestor Xiahou comes in person.
Only after doing this did Jiang Deng feel completely relieved.
Shi Tongling returned to the Eight Gates World to practice, while Jiang Deng came down from the top of the mountain and searched everywhere on Liushui Peak, trying to find where Xiahou Qingyu was imprisoned.
Now that she knew how to open the treasure house, all she had to do was find Xiahou Qingyu. With Xiahou Qingyu's help, she would be able to sneak into Giant Sword Peak!
Hard work pays off. After working hard for a quarter of an hour, Jiang Deng finally found it.
There is a very hidden cave in front. Because of the formation arranged there, it can block the detection of the cultivator's spiritual sense.
In addition, there are several gatekeepers at the door. Three of them are in the late Nascent Soul Realm, and one is in the early Spirit Transformation Realm. With so many masters in charge of guarding the door, it can be seen how important the people imprisoned inside are.
The reason why Jiang Deng was sure that this was where Xiahou Qingyu was imprisoned was because Xiahou Yu was beaten out by the people inside, and there were still a few sword scratches on his face, which contained the breath of Xiahou Qingyu.
"aunt!"
Xia Houyu touched the wound on his face and looked angrily into the depths of the cave. "You don't want to marry Patriarch Pei, isn't it because you're still thinking about Song Yuanze? Song Yuanze knows you're going to marry Patriarch Pei, but he's already gone to siege the Nangong family. There's no way he'll come to save you. You'd better give up and marry him!"
"Oh……"
Xiahou Qingyu's slightly mocking laughter echoed from the cave. "What does it have to do with him? Is it okay for me not to marry anyone? You've betrothed me to a stranger without any consideration for my feelings?"
"Aunt, I..."
"Stop talking!" Xiahou Qingyu shouted, his tone filled with murderous intent. "If you come in again, don't blame me for killing you without regard for our blood relationship!"
“…”
Xiahou Yu wanted to go in again, but he was afraid that Xiahou Qingyu would fight with him, so he was at a loss for a moment.
A guard named Wang, who was at the early stage of the Spiritual Transformation Realm, advised: "Young Master, you should leave now. Don't do this in vain."
Xia Houyu said with a bitter face, "This young master is really doing this for Auntie's own good. Auntie is not young anymore and will need to find someone to rely on in the future. Although Patriarch Pei is old, it's undeniable that an older man will be kind and caring."
Ginger Lantern hidden behind the tree, "..."
Not to mention Xiahou Qingyu, even she wanted to beat Xiahou Yu up.
Since marrying an older man is so good, why doesn't he marry him?
"Young Master, what are you worried about?"
Wang Shouwei said firmly, "When the wedding date arrives, even if Fairy Qingyu doesn't want to, what does it matter? Marriage has always been decided by parents and matchmakers. Moreover, this is the marriage partner chosen by the ancestor. She will have to marry even if she doesn't want to."
"……you're right."
Xiahou Yu nodded and calmed down again.
Since his aunt was so ungrateful, there was no need for him to persuade her anymore. They were all thinking about his aunt anyway. After she got married, she would understand their painstaking efforts.
Thinking of this, Xiahou Yu strode away.
Seeing Xiahou Yu leaving, Jiang Deng's eyes turned, a plan came to his mind, and he immediately followed him.
When Xiahou Yu reached a secluded place where there were no Xiahou family members patrolling around, Jiang Deng jumped out and blocked Xiahou Yu's way.
With a thought, the heavy light sword appeared in his hand, with the tip of the sword pointing directly at Xiahou Yu.
Jiang Deng shook his head and said, "I opened this mountain and planted this tree. If you want to pass through here, you must leave your life behind!"
