Upon hearing Li Lianhua's question, Master Wuliao shared his information and speculations: "I have heard that Yun Biqiu has been secluded in Baichuan Courtyard for the past ten years, so I have made a hasty guess that he is the one who poisoned you with the green tea back then."
After this incident, Yun Biqiu was filled with remorse and rushed to the East Sea to search for you for several months without success. When Abbot Bai found him, he showed no intention of resisting and was pierced through the chest by Abbot Bai's sword. Fortunately, Abbot Ji found out in time that he had indeed been bewitched by villains and did not really want to harm you.
So they sent someone to rescue him and keep him there. But Yun Biqiu has been imprisoned for ten years, refusing to forgive himself. This old monk guesses again, but it's not that Benefactor Li can't let go of his grudges because of this. After all, what happened back then is all interconnected, and someone has to let go first.
Upon hearing the monk's assessment of her, Li Lianhua couldn't help but scoff. "If it were Li Lianhua five years ago, she might have truly let go, but the Li Lianhua sitting before you now is no longer the same person she was back then."
Although he said that Biqiu was misled by wicked people, so what? What's done is done, and no one can change it.
"Monk, you said he went to the East Sea to look for me for months, so why didn't you go there immediately after the battle in the East Sea? Who are you putting on this act for? How kind can someone be who would poison his friend?"
He knew who had given him the poison, and he knew that Li Xiangyi had disappeared because of him, yet he showed no desire for revenge or to reveal who had poisoned him. Instead, he confined himself to Baichuan Courtyard, pretending to be repentant.
"What kind of suffering will he endure in this Baichuan Academy? Will he, like me, lose consciousness from the pain of the deadly poison? Or will he, like me, suffer endless hardships in this vast martial world? Or will he, like me, have a home he dares not return to, and family he dares not see?"
Li Lianhua's questions stumped Master Wule. Yes, he was focused on getting Li Lianhua back to Sigumen so that they could find the antidote more quickly, but he hadn't considered what the people in Sigumen thought of him now.
He's obsessed.
Seeing that Li Lianhua was somewhat agitated, Li Lianxin immediately patted his back gently to show that she was still there. She hadn't said much since entering the room. She knew that Master Wule had much to say to Lianhua.
They spent a lot of time together, but Master Wuliao had been waiting for Li Lianhua to return while he was at Pudu Temple. Master Wuliao was also the one who had saved Li Lianhua's life.
"If you don't want to go back, then don't. However, Baichuan Academy recently acquired a new sword, so it invited its old friends from Sigu Sect to hold a sword appreciation event. This sword is the personal sword of Benefactor Li, Shaoshi."
Even if Benefactor Li is unwilling to return, this young master should still be returned to its master's hands. What do you say, Benefactor Li? The young master's master will always be only Li Lianhua.
"I will retrieve it myself, Junior Tutor."
We must get it back! We can't let those people get it so easily. If we don't get it back, they might take another cut of the Junior Tutor's profits!
"There's something else, but I'm not sure if I should say it." Master Wule glanced at Li Lianhua's side, and Li Lianhua remembered Qiao Wanmian.
"Speak, there's nothing to hide." Li Lianhua reached out and grabbed the hand beside her, looking completely indifferent. Rumors about the past relationship between Li Xiangyi and Qiao Wanmian circulated widely in the martial arts world, and Lianxin, knowing the story, was naturally aware of it.
