The two of them proposed to leave at the same time, which made Chen Guanshui feel uneasy.

What's wrong? Do you want to go back to the sect to ask for help? Will you bring a large group of my family members to come and kidnap me next time?

But he still tried to remain calm, smiled and said:

"Do I have to go back? I can ask Jing to bring the books over."

"Fellow Daoist Yao Chi also knows about casting?" Shi Liuli said in surprise, "I'm not sure what book it is. I need to read about a hundred books to confirm it. Otherwise, let fellow Daoist take a look?"

"The library of the Tiannan Xu family is blocked by numerous traps and is guarded by elders." Xu Yinglian also smiled and said, "However, Daoist Yao Chi is proficient in illusion, so I think he will be able to bypass these difficulties and find the books I want."

"Forget it." Kunlun Jing backed out immediately after hearing how troublesome it was. "Guan Shui, I think we should let them go. After all, this is about mending the sky, so we have to make sure it's foolproof."

I’m just afraid that something unexpected will happen after they go back… Chen Guanshui complained secretly.

But if you think about it carefully, although Liuli has a deep mind, she is pregnant with our child at this time, so she will definitely not betray me.

We should pity her for being aloof and proud, and she certainly would not be ashamed of doing anything two-faced.

After careful consideration, Chen Guanshui finally realized that from the moment he handed over the task of smelting the Sky-Repairing Stone to the ladies, he was destined to trust them - otherwise he would make himself look like an idiot because of the things that happened before.

"Okay." He quickly showed his "trust your employees" attitude and said readily, "I'll see you off."

After sending Xu Yinglian and Shi Liuli away, Chen Guanshui returned to the underwater cave and couldn't help but let out a long sigh.

In his original plan, as long as he could collect six pieces of the Sky-Repairing Stone, and then do this and that, and that and that, he could turn it into Sky-Repairing Stone to repair the sky.

Nowadays, it seems that “this and that” is actually quite troublesome. What’s going on?

Shouldn't the six fragments merge together after being gathered together and fly directly into the sky to patch things up?

After thinking about unrealistic ideas for a while, Chen Guanshui looked at the five-colored stone fragments in the furnace again.

Compared with the initial angular shape, the fragments in the furnace have now stuck to each other, forming a kind of "you in me, me in you" shape, it seems that the smelting is indeed coming to an end.

Just as he was thinking this, he suddenly felt something pressing against his back.

Chen Guanshui:?

"Junior brother." An Zhisu's voice sounded from behind, "I have some questions to ask you."

Chen Guanshui was suddenly frightened, and guessed that it was Senior Sister An who was holding a sword against him from behind. If his next answer was not satisfactory, she would pierce him from head to toe, and make him bleed everywhere!

"Ask, Senior Sister," he said calmly.

"You..." An Zhisu hesitated and said, only to hear Chen Guanshui suddenly say firmly:

"I did."

An Zhisu:?

“No.” She wanted to laugh a little, but soon she turned stern and said coldly, “I now know that the reason you entered Shushan under the pseudonym Lingyunpo was to seize the fragment of the Heaven-Repairing Stone from the Long-Eyebrowed Immortal.”

"Besides, it was me who personally selected you to join Qingluo Peak, and it was not you who deliberately planned to become my disciple. I don't blame you for this."

"But they..." An Zhisu's voice was not finished yet, and Chen Guanshui explained again:

"Just because Qiu Changtian and Xu Yinglian become Taoist companions doesn't mean Ling Yunpo can't have feelings for Senior Sister An. That's what I thought at first."

"It's not because I'm shameless, but as a multi-faceted spy, I have to cut my heart into... into three parts at all times. In Kunlun, I play the role of Qiu Changtian, and in Penglai, I play the role of Luo Yan. There is no way I can consider Ling Yunpo."

He sighed deeply and said:

"Senior Sister, I have failed you on this point."

An Zhisu remained silent, but his heart was shaken violently.

Of course, she knew what being a multi-faceted spy meant. If she played Ling Yunpo in Shushan, already engaged to her senior sister, and then played the role of single Luo Yan in Penglai, but rejected the girls around her who took the initiative to show their affection, and kept saying to herself "I already have a senior sister", wouldn't that be nonsense?

When playing the role of Luo Yan, one also has to consider Ling Yunpo's character, otherwise he would be seen through in minutes!

When An Zhisu recalled the fact that his junior fellow disciple already had a Taoist partner in another sect, he still felt angry, annoyed, and distressed.

She was angry that she had so many rivals in love, and she was annoyed that her junior brother had kept it a secret from her until now. However, the subtle emotion of heartache was hidden deepest, but knowing that "her junior brother was helpless", she felt pity and sympathy for his current embarrassing situation.

Others who repaired the sky ascended to heaven on the spot and were regarded as the greatest saints by later generations; but my junior brother who repaired the sky went through life and death, treading on thin ice, and in the end was deserted by everyone and even his closest people found it difficult to forgive him. What kind of logic is this!

"Even if you admit that you betrayed me, what can you do?" An Zhisu said sadly, "Now that the matter is done, can I still kill you, or kill them?"

"They are innocent, please don't hurt them." Chen Guanshui noticed that the hard object on his back had not yet left, and he immediately guessed what his sister was thinking. He said with a dead heart, "Please just kill me, sister."

"Are you willing to die on the eve of repairing the sky?" An Zhisu said in a trembling voice.

"Why would I be unwilling to accept this?" Chen Guanshui said sadly, "I only have three requests."

"First, after I die, please ask Senior Sister to help them mend the sky and share this merit. This will be my compensation to you."

"Second, when you go back, don't blame yourself or feel ashamed, and don't regret it. If I had resisted, you wouldn't have had the chance to kill me. I was willing to die, so the fault is not yours."

An Zhisu looked at him in a daze.

"Third." Chen Guanshui closed his eyes, "Apologize to Master for me."

"I became a disciple of Qingluo Peak. Although I was the master's disciple, I failed to bring honor to the master's sect. Instead, I left a mess for him when he came out of retreat."

"When he became the headmaster, I was supposed to assist my master in governing the sect, but in the end, I rebelled against Shushan in order to save the world, breaking his heart."

"Please, Senior Sister, cut off my head and bring it back to Master. Then tell him that I am the unfilial disciple Ling Yunpo. I feel that I have committed a great sin and am willing to offer my head to Master to atone for my sins!"

"Why has it come to this..." An Zhisu sighed and threw away the thing in his hand.

Chen Guanshui quickly lowered his eyes and looked at the thing on the ground.

Um, scabbard?

Isn't it a flying sword, but a scabbard? In other words, Senior Sister didn't intend to kill me from the beginning, but just to give herself courage, she raised the scabbard as if it were a sword?

Before he could even breathe a sigh of relief, An Zhisu hugged him from behind.

"Junior brother." Senior Sister An's voice was also choked with sobs, "I am sorry for you..."

Chen Guanshui: ???

Wait, what have you done to me, Senior Sister? Weren't you kept in the dark from the beginning to the end?

He was somewhat confused, and only heard An Zhisu sobbing again:

"I...actually, I have vaguely noticed in the past that Junior Brother seems to be worried, but I have never shown any concern. Instead, I only worry about trivial matters like the progress of my cultivation."

"If I had discovered earlier that my junior brother was carrying such a heavy burden, I could have thought of something to do..."

No, no, no, sister, you can't come up with a solution with your brain. What's that thing pressing on my back? Is it a bit too heavy?

Chen Guanshui was not some innocent youngster, and he soon realized what that rich, hot thing was. Just as he was about to struggle, An Zhisu hugged him tighter, sobbing and saying:

"Junior brother, you became Taoist partners with them, but you never told me your feelings. Is it because you think that Senior Sister can't help you?"

...My neck has been completely embraced by her. If she just applies a little force, she can break it immediately.

After quickly judging the current situation, Chen Guanshui did not dare to lie, but said calmly and honestly:

"I became a Taoist couple with Kunlun Qiongying because the Xu family of Tiannan acted as a matchmaker and Master arranged it personally."

"I got married to Penglai Dongyou because Elder Shiding died and Tiangong Workshop was in urgent need of support."

"But I can't lie to my senior sister. I do have real feelings for both of them... and my feelings for my senior sister are no less than my feelings for them."

"But I used to think that sooner or later I would betray the sect to repair the sky and save the world. If I became a Taoist partner with Senior Sister, where would Senior Sister's innocent reputation be? But if we didn't have a Taoist partner relationship, even if rumors spread in Shushan, Senior Sister only needed to kill me after repairing the sky, and the storm would naturally subside."

"Why are you so stupid?" An Zhisu released his neck distressedly, turned him around, held his cheek in her hands, and said with tears streaming down her face, "If I must say something, it's the sect, the master, and me who are sorry for you."

Uh... Chen Guanshui asked in confusion:

"But I betrayed my master after all..."

"We have never been an enemy of Shushan, so how can you say that we betrayed you?" An Zhisu wiped her tears, "Senior sister will not hide it from you. Shushan has only said that you went out to travel, and has not blamed you for betrayal..."

Of course, you can't just say that the Master of Taiyin Sword betrayed his sect and became a laughing stock for the whole world, right?

Chen Guanshui continued:

"I also stole the fragments of the Heaven-Repairing Stone..."

"The immortal said that if you want to repair the sky and save the world, then Shushan will not need fragments to guard the sect." An Zhisu's face was full of tears, and he just shook his head, "And you have also repaired the restrictions of the Demon Locking Tower."

Chen Guanshui became more and more confused and asked again:

"But I hid it from my senior sister and found a Taoist partner in another sect..."

"This really made Senior Sister very angry." An Zhisu gritted her teeth and closed her red eyes. "But...but what can we do? After all, you were a spy at that time, and there were some things you had to do..."

So I really have no moral faults?

Chen Guanshui even had such an illusion for a moment, but he soon realized that this was his senior sister's protective instinct breaking out again, and he began to desperately find justification for himself.

So he hugged Senior Sister An and said gently:

"Senior sister, you don't have to make excuses for me. I know exactly what I did."

"Just because Senior Sister is unwilling to kill me right now doesn't mean my actions deserve forgiveness. When I have finished mending the sky, I will spend the rest of my life atoning for these sins..."

"That is to say." An Zhisu's eyes lit up, "Junior brother, after you repair the sky, you will not ascend to heaven on the spot, right?"

Chen Guanshui was stunned.

Although he did not answer, just a moment of pause was enough to give the answer.

An Zhisu was afraid that he would regret it, so she forced a smile and interrupted him:

"Let's not talk about that. I see Qiongying and Dongyou are worried about smelting the Heaven-Repairing Stone, right? Actually, Senior Sister, I recently got the Sun True Darkness Sword. It said that if the Heaven-Repairing Stone is moved to the place where the sky leaks, it is willing to help provide heat to help it smelt..."

What? The Sun is really a sword? Chen Guanshui was shocked.

The Sun True Darkness Sword came out of An Zhisu's body, buzzing:

"That's right. Although I am the Fuxi Sword, I shouldn't help you for free, but since you have taken care of Su Ming for so many years, I will give you a hand... Wait, what is your attitude?"

Chen Guanshui did not show any surprise, but instead had an extremely uneasy look on his face, as if he had encountered some difficult problem.

What he was thinking at this moment was certainly not "Great, the last problem has been solved" or "Oh, I should have known not to let Liuli and Junior Sister leave", but "Why the hell are you here? Why are you here?"

Aren’t you the one who used true fire to seal off the natural moat in southern Xinjiang to prevent the invasion of the demons?

With Chen Guanshui's intelligence, he was stunned for only a moment before he figured out the connection:

The last Sun Sword Master had an obsession, so his heroic spirit lingered, and he trapped the Sun Sword in the southern border to block the natural barrier.

Now that the Sun Sword has escaped, it means that the last Sun Sword Master has rested in peace... How did he rest in peace? Who let him rest in peace?

His obsession was the lack of knowledge about the safety of his wife and daughter. In fact, his wife Yin Xiaojing had passed away, and his daughter, who was Longhu's mother, had also passed away long ago.

The only one who knows all this, besides me...isn't he the little fox?

The little fox is here!

Noticing that An Zhisu was still looking at him, Chen Guanshui quickly suppressed his emotions and said in a deep voice:

"Sister, the Sun Sword is the most precious treasure of the human race. How can you bring it out if you haven't refined it into a life-defining sword? Over at Shushan..."

So that's what you're worried about! Before An Zhisu could say anything, Taiyang Zhenmei Sword burst into laughter:

"That's right, but you should also know that since I am the treasure of the human race, the Shu Mountain cannot restrict my stay or departure!"

"Junior brother." An Zhisu also smiled bitterly and said, "It and the Suming Sword have a mutual induction. If I hadn't brought it here, I wouldn't have been able to find you successfully."

OK, it turns out that Su Ming had been hiding it from me!

Chen Guanshui was furious. Since Su Ming could sense the Zhenmei Sword, why didn't he tell me?

If it had told me earlier, I would have known that Zhenmei had escaped, and I would have known that the little fox had come to find me, and I would have been able to...

It seems like there is nothing we can do?

Forget it, since Su Ming knew about the situation but didn’t report it, he should be held accountable!

"Master Sword Master, this is not my fault!" Su Mingjian quickly explained, "We can only sense each other's approximate range, but not the exact distance. The closer we are, the more vague the sense is."

"So in my perception, its location has always been in the east. Who knows if it is in the southern border or has moved to the East China Sea?"

"Shut up." Chen Guanshui scolded it, "I'll settle the score with you later!"
