Now that he had seen through her act, Qin Luo didn't want to pretend any longer.
"Then can you tell me, did he betray us or not?"
The way Wu Zhaoliang looked at her was like an eagle eyeing a rabbit in the wilderness.
"Of course not. Not only did he not betray you, he also pushed everything onto that so-called alchemist. There are actually a bunch of fools who believed him, and now they're looking for him everywhere."
As he spoke, he carefully observed the changes in Qin Luo's expression.
Seeing her brows furrow slightly and her lips pressed into a straight line
Wu Zhaoliang then guessed what she was thinking.
"You don't simply think he did this to protect you, do you?"
Qin Luo subconsciously looked up, revealing his thoughts completely.
Wu Zhaoliang, on the other hand, was already laughing so hard he was doubled over.
"Hahaha, he just wanted to protect himself and the two spirit stones he had. It's a pity that they ended up in my hands."
Upon hearing this, Qin Luo's eyes were filled with disgust.
Although the waiter was acting in self-defense, he didn't actually betray himself.
I never imagined he would lose his life so easily; in that sense, I really did cause his death.
Qin Luo's gaze grew sharper with each thought, but Wu Zhaoliang raised his hand and flicked her forehead.
"He's not that easy to die, but he absorbed the spiritual energy from the spirit stone, causing all his cultivation to vanish. He was also targeted by someone. If I hadn't intervened to save him, he would already be queuing up at the Bridge of Helplessness."
His attack was so fast that Qin Luo took a solid hit.
A large bump immediately appeared on Qin Luo's forehead, but he didn't seem to care much.
After all, her current situation and her own strength do not allow her to care.
But thinking of Xiao Er's innocent suffering, he felt really guilty, so he whispered to Wu Hua...
“Little one, those spirit stones have been purified and are full of spiritual energy, which is contrary to the resentment they had in their previous cultivation. So, in this case, it was I who harmed that waiter.”
But Wu Hua didn't listen to her at all; instead, she glared angrily at Wu Zhaoliang.
It was as if they wanted to chop him into mincemeat. Leaving aside whether Qin Luo was the person they cared about most...
Even just considering the soul contract they signed, Wu Hua couldn't just stand by and watch her be humiliated.
He immediately raised his hand and unleashed a burst of energy towards Wu Zhaoliang.
Wu Zhaoliang only meant to play a joke on Qin Luo, but he didn't expect Wu Huahui to suddenly make a move.
Even with the fastest reaction time, you can't avoid getting hit.
He knelt on the ground and wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth.
A slightly excited laugh came from his mouth.
"Hahaha, I didn't expect you to have such profound magical power at such a young age. No wonder even I couldn't see your cultivation level."
Qin Luo ignored him, because she knew Wu Hua had just given it her all.
However, Wu Zhao didn't seem to be seriously injured. She took out a medicine packet from her spatial storage.
He gave Wu Hua a hint, and she instantly understood.
The moment Wu Zhaoliang stood up, he was showered with water as if it were free.
Wu Zhaoliang probably didn't take the two of them seriously at all, and was thus unwittingly outmaneuvered by them.
Just before he collapsed, Qin Luo quickly caught him.
The two didn't plan to return to their spatial dimension; instead, they set up a barrier on the spot.
The powerful figures in the city, seeing the magical fluctuations here, originally intended to come and investigate.
But after seeing Wu Zhaoliang's back, they immediately dispersed.
It was only at this moment that Qin Luo and Wu Hua gained a deeper understanding of Wu Zhaoliang's strength.
Wu Hua rewrote a rescue story for her, and in the process, also accessed her memories.
It turns out that Wu Zhaoliang was born into a collateral branch of a once-prosperous but now impoverished family in the Central Plains. Despite his poverty, he was exceptionally gifted from a young age.
Because of his exceptional talent in cultivation, he was noticed by the clan elders.
They went to great lengths to send her to the Thousand Profound Sword Sect, the number one sect in the Central Plains, and the hardships she endured during that time were indescribable.
Having endured so much hardship until the day of ascension, he thought he could finally sever ties with the mortal world he so despised.
But little did he expect that the so-called ascension was nothing but a deception; he had just survived the tribulation lightning.
Enveloped in guiding beams, it slowly rose into the sky.
When he disappeared from everyone's sight, he thought the next step would be to step into the immortal realm and begin a new life.
Unexpectedly, instead of reaching the Immortal Realm, they were banished to the Wilderness by divine artifacts from the Heavenly Dao.
Trapped here forever, Wu Zhaoliang initially thought he had done something wrong and angered the heavens, thus suffering this fate.
But gradually he also sensed something was wrong; he felt his compassionate heart...
It's slowly disappearing, replaced by a black heart that wants everyone in the world to suffer the same fate as him.
It's unclear whether it was the voice of his heart that was heard by the Heavenly Dao.
From then on, more and more people were banished to the wilderness, to the point that he became numb to it.
Gradually, they built a city and started doing business here.
People have become increasingly greedy, treating human life as worthless.
Murder and arson were commonplace, and rape and kidnapping were even more so.
Some people have even started to eat flesh and blood.
They even gave them all sorts of nice names, like Fragrant Cake, Dewy Dew, Sacrificial Meat, and Marrow-Eating Bone...
Therefore, very few children in the city live past their first birthday, because they are targeted from the moment they are born.
Without the protection of parents with powerful cultivation, he would probably have been devoured to the bone right after birth.
In this land of sin, the most wicked thing is the already rotten human heart.
Here, from the elderly to young children, there is absolutely no kindness to be found.
They never remember kindness, only know how to take, and have no idea what giving back means.
No matter how good you are to them, they will never develop a conscience.
It's as if what flows through my body isn't blood, but evil poison.
After Qin Luo and Wu Hua read through all of Wu Zhaoliang's memories, they were filled with mixed emotions.
