Chapter 79 Chapter 79 Let her never pick up the sword again
Guangxuan Peak.
Shen Ke looked coldly at Xue Wanning in front of him.
The calm and gentle smile on his face was no longer there, but was replaced by a kind of disgust spreading from his eyes.
"Why did you go to see Ji Chu?"
Xue Wanning walked past him with a faint smile on her face, ignoring his question.
Shen Ke couldn't stand it any longer, so he reached out and grabbed her:
"What exactly do you want to do by deliberately staying in Fuyu Xianzong?"
"What?"
Xue Wanning turned around and looked at him:
"Don't you know I've been possessed by a demon? Naturally, I do what a demon does. Since you can't stand me, you can report me to Immortal Huiyuan."
She pretended to be surprised.
"No way? Elder Shen of the Fuyu Immortal Sect, Immortal Lord Shen of the Immortal Sect, you are not going to protect a devil like me, are you?"
Chen Ke looked angry:
"You think I don't dare?"
Xue Wanning sneered:
"Why I think it's not important? What matters is what the world thinks."
"When my divine bones changed, you watched helplessly as I fell into the demonic abyss, yet you turned and ran. Now that I'm possessed by the devil, do you think—you're innocent?"
To this day, she still can't forget the sight of Chen Ke fleeing in panic that day.
That's ridiculous.
The lovers who were once thought to be devoted to each other, turned out to be doomed to separate when faced with danger.
Fortunately, God did not kill her. He took care of her and led her back to the human world.
But Chen Ke, out of guilty conscience and fear, used the Soul Gathering Lamp to capture her soul, causing her soul and body to separate and fall into a long sleep!
If a wisp of her soul had not accidentally escaped, allowing her to contact the Xue family, I'm afraid she would never have had a chance of resurrection!
And Chen Ke can cling to his reputation of being a bright and honest man with deep affection and unrepentant love, and continue to put on a show in this world by stepping on her corpse!
When she saw Chen Ke again, she really couldn't retain even a trace of old feelings.
Facing Xue Wanning's questioning, Chen Ke knew that he was not upright enough, but he did not feel that he was wrong:
"You are trapped in the devil's abyss, unable to escape. Do you want me to be buried with you?"
"Once you and I are both trapped in it, who will be able to bring the news back to the world of cultivation? Will the Demon Abyss then murder even more innocent people?"
"You really care about the people."
Xue Wanning smiled sarcastically:
"Whether it's to protect more people or for your selfish, cowardly heart, you know it clearly in your heart!"
Xue Wanning raised her hand and casually pushed Shen Ke's hand that was holding her arm away:
"I'm fine, but...if others knew that the upright Immortal Lord Shen was also a cowardly villain who coveted life and feared death, all the good reputation you worked so hard to build would be gone."
Chen Ke's face darkened, and for a moment his expression became ferocious.
"Do you really think I dare not kill you?"
Xue Wan Ning couldn't help laughing, her voice was like a silver bell, and her body was shaking:
"Are you threatening me?"
"You think I'll be threatened by you? You're so naive that it makes me want to laugh."
She shook her head slowly and sighed:
"But it's really funny when I think about it. Everyone says you're deeply affectionate, but you've tried to attack me time and time again, without showing any sign of deep affection. Could it be that your deep affection... is directed towards Ji Chu?"
Shen Ke's expression froze.
Xue Wanning continued:
"She's quite discerning. She saw early on that you weren't a good person. She'd rather go to someone as cold-hearted as Meng Yuci than stay with you."
Shen Ke clenched his fists.
Xue Wanning walked around him, slowly moving forward, and said slowly:
"Chen Ke, ah Chen Ke, people like you always try to control others, treating them as tools to build your reputation. You are selfish and greedy. How can you deserve the sincerity of others?"
She stood beside him, put her hand on his collar and patted him twice:
"I'm sure you've seen it too. Ji Chucai and Meng Yuci have only been together for a short time, but they've already become close friends. They exchange glances and completely disregard you, her mentor. I think they've been disrespectful to you in the past."
A faint demonic energy emanated from her fingertips and drifted into Chen Ke's seven orifices.
Chen Ke's breathing quickened, and he wanted to interrupt her, but the gentle voice continued to reach his ears, evoking the evil thoughts that always existed in his heart:
"Are you willing to accept this? She was the one you chose. You saved her from the monster and brought her into the world of cultivation. Everything she has now is due to you."
"Your cultivation has stagnated, making it difficult to make any progress. How could she betray you, abandon you, and turn to the arms of a more powerful man?"
Every time she spoke, Shen Ke's expression became uglier.
Until the last sentence, he suddenly said:
"you--"
"How should I know? Chen Ke, don't forget, it was God who saved me, and God knows everything."
Seeing that the fire was almost out, Xue Wan Ning admired his angry and resentful expression with satisfaction, let go, and turned around.
Chen Ke suddenly grabbed her wrist.
"what you up to?"
His eyes were red as he questioned her fiercely.
Xue Wanning moved closer to him and whispered in his ear:
"I'm going to kill Ji Chu."
"You dare?!"
Shen Ke suddenly became furious.
"You can't stop me."
Xue Wanning chuckled, not afraid of him:
"God wants her to die, and no one can save her."
"but……"
Xue Wanning's beautiful eyes moved, and she said:
"For the sake of our past relationship, if you really can't bear to let her go, I can spare her life."
"What conditions?"
Xue Wanning leaned close to his ear, her voice soft and graceful, but every word she said struck his heart:
"Destroy her. Cut off her arms, remove her skills, and leave her isolated and helpless, so she can never lift a sword again."
As she spoke, she stroked his cheek again:
"There is no possibility for us, so let her accompany you instead of me, look up to you, and only be controlled by you in this life."
She held a square box in her hand and handed it to Chen Ke:
"With her wings clipped, she is despised by the world. Only you can protect her. She is like a caged crane in your own private life. It suits her perfectly."
"Isn't it?"

"Did Xue Wanning really tell you that?"
Xu Ying rubbed her chin: "It's so weird..."
"Yeah, I think so too."
Ji Chu nodded:
"Why is she telling me this?"
Chen Wu guessed:
"Could it be that she wants to break up with Elder Shen? But Elder Shen disagrees, so she wants to ask you for help?"
"How is that possible?"
Xu Ying rolled her eyes at him:
"If the Soul Gathering Lamp incident was really instigated by Elder Shen, then Xue Wanning's relationship with him must be quite bad. It's definitely not something Ji Chu can interfere with."
"Besides, they are all hundreds of years old. How could they play games like children, such as "you love me, I don't love you" and so on?"
"Be more mature."
She advised Chen Wu:
"Thinking about it from a mature perspective, there must be a big problem here."
"I agree with that."
Jiang Chengxu said:
"Although no one says that people who are hundreds of years old can't be childish, it's obvious that Xue Wanning and Elder Shen are not that kind of people."
Xu Ying thought to herself:
Things are really getting more and more interesting. It seems that we really can't relax our surveillance on Xue Wanning.
Then she said to Ji Chu:
"To be on the safe side, Ji Chu, you should stay away from them for the time being."
Ji Chu naturally agreed, but she didn't want to get involved in Xue Wanning and Shen Ke's affairs at all.
Now her focus is more on the sacred bones at the top of Xuanhe Peak.
Many things have changed in this life, but the matter of "Xue Xianchen snatching the divine bone" is like a silk thread hanging in her heart. She doesn't know when it will break, and she doesn't know what the consequences will be.
When she talked about Xue Xianchen, she felt worried.
He hadn't appeared in front of her since the last Immortal Questioning Conference.
But this time when Xue Wan Ning came to Fu Yu Xian Sect, he did not follow her.
Ji Chu didn't think that he would give up the divine bone. The reason why he hadn't shown up was probably that he was planning something bigger.
A few days later, Ji Chu's bad premonitions finally came true.
The entire Wuji Sect was possessed by demons, slaughtering the surrounding villages and incorporating the area where they were located into the demon clan's territory. They worshipped the Demon King as their supreme leader and fought against the world of cultivation.
As for the demon king who suddenly appeared, as Ji Chu expected, it should be Xue Xianchen who had disappeared for a long time.
Ji Chu was very surprised.
Because according to her and Zhongli Bai's speculation, after the death of Venerable Asanga, no one could work for the Last God anymore, and this series of events should not have happened again.
But the Wuji Sect still fell into demonic possession.
This only means that, apart from Venerable Asanga, the Last God has other messengers who can continue to develop believers for it in the lower world.
Ji Chu couldn't help but start to feel anxious.
If one Asanga is gone, there will be another.
Even if she were reborn, she would not be able to know all the inside stories and prevent everything from happening.
This made her feel panicky and she dared not relax for a moment. Every time she closed her eyes, she would see the series of accidents in her previous life that caught her off guard.
She was scared.
I’m afraid that if I don’t think about it, I will repeat the mistakes of my previous life.

Immortal Huiyuan summoned a group of elders to discuss countermeasures.
As the head disciple, Ji Chu was waiting outside the main hall to be summoned at any time.
And she finally saw her senior brother again after many days.
Senior Brother was as aloof and calm as ever, with a demeanor as graceful as snow. Just standing from a distance was enough to amaze people.
Despite that unpleasant conversation, her senior brother was still the most handsome man in her mind.
However, the cold moon in the sky can only be viewed from afar and not played with.
When she was feeling emotional, her senior brother suddenly turned to her.
Ji Chu was caught off guard when he met those dark and cold eyes. Without thinking, he quickly lowered his head and began to carefully study the patterns on the floor tiles.
This cloud pattern is really cloud-like...
A snow-white hem of clothing "floated" over, bringing with it a cool breeze.
The senior brother stood beside her, his snow-white sleeves hanging naturally. Whether intentionally or unintentionally, they gently touched her cuffs and brushed across the back of her hand, bringing a cool and silky touch.
Then he lowered his head slightly and looked at the patterns on the ground with her.
Ji Chu felt uneasy.
She felt like she was back in the Zhilu Hall that day, meeting her senior brother without any preparation. She didn't know what to do, so she could only pretend to be dumb and pray in her heart that her senior brother would not speak.
But the presence of her senior brother beside her was particularly strong, and the cool aura from him gradually spread to her.
The corner of his eyes was filled with that cold white. Ji Chu endured it again and again, but could not bear it any longer. He raised his head and looked at his senior brother:
"Brother, you're here too..."
After saying that, she wanted to hit herself.
What kind of nonsense is this?
Since she is here as the head disciple, her senior brother will of course be here too!
It was as if I heard a sigh-like chuckle coming from beside me.
Ji Chu suddenly felt embarrassed and immediately turned his head back, staring at the floor tiles, and vowed never to speak again.
The senior brother next to her also calmed down and didn't bother to dwell on her "embarrassing topic".
After a while, Ji Chu felt that he was not so nervous anymore, so he couldn't help but secretly turn his head and squint one eye, thinking that he was just taking a peek.
Unexpectedly, when she looked at it, she was caught by her senior brother who was staring at her.
She suddenly shuddered and turned her head back, leaving Meng Yuci with a revealing back of her head.
Meng Yuci looked at her round head and couldn't help sighing, saying:
"Ji Chu, are you really going to stay like this and never talk to me again?"
"I don't!"
Ji Chu turned back, then quickly turned his head to look at the ground:
"I'm not talking to you, Senior Brother. I just... I just don't have anything to say."
"All right."
Meng Yuci was helpless and said:
"But I have something to say."
Ji Chu looked at him doubtfully.
He turned his head to look at Ji Chu, his long and delicate eyes staring at her for a moment, his long feathery eyelashes trembled a few times, and his black jade-like eyes flashed with a faint light.
Then he opened his thin lips and asked in a low voice:
"Have you eaten well recently?"
