Chapter 957 The Lord is Not Skilled at Spelling People's Hearts 21
Ren Nianchan was furious. How could there be such a shameless person in the world?
It was clearly his own unwillingness to acknowledge their kinship, yet he blamed her for it.
It was as if they had a very deep friendship.
The Emei Sect Leader and Madam Ren exchanged a glance. At the same time, knowing Ren Nianchan's temperament very well, the Sect Leader spoke first, before she could lose all pretense of civility, saying, "Since Xiao Mo is unwilling, let's call it quits."
Song Jinhuan bowed and said happily, "Senior Sister Ren doesn't have to be sad anymore~"
The Emei sect leader's forehead twitched, but in the end he simply waved his hand and said, "Go down."
"Yes, Master."
Song Jinhuan left as quickly as possible and returned to her residence without expression.
It wasn't that she was sensitive; after the sect competition, the senior sisters would avoid her whenever they saw her.
It's okay, she doesn't care.
Hmph, one person isolates the entire sect!
Awesome!
I don't know what Yu Sheng has been busy with these past few days; I haven't seen him during the day.
Whenever I came home late, I would often bring her something, most often martial arts manuals.
With the increase in her internal strength, coupled with her good memory, she mastered it quite quickly.
Moreover, the more techniques you've seen, the easier it is to learn them.
In short, she practiced a wide variety of things; whatever Yu Sheng gave her, she practiced.
At Elder Xichen's residence, Yu Sheng, dressed in black, stood with his hands behind his back, facing away from the elder.
Elder Xichen: "Saintess Huachan intends to take Mo Liansheng, a disciple of the Emei Sect, as her adopted daughter. The purpose of this action is obvious."
"oh?"
A cold glint flashed in the man's eyes as he suddenly remembered the substitute the girl had mentioned.
Judging from the time, it was shortly after Elder Xichen visited the Emei Sect.
As expected of his fiancée, she is incredibly insightful!
Seeing that Yu Sheng was not angry but smiling, Elder Xi Chen said with concern, "Your Majesty, the Holy Maiden Hua Chan has long betrayed the territory, yet she shows no remorse. Now she is trying to deceive the heavens by replacing her with another woman. She should be severely punished!"
Seeing that Yu Sheng's smile had only deepened, he continued earnestly, "If we let him go now, it will be difficult to convince the public."
Yu Sheng frowned, gave Elder Xi Chen a strange look, and couldn't help but chuckle, "How could I possibly let you off so easily?"
"It's fine if she's worried about her daughter, but if she's willing to accept the punishment, I'll think more highly of her."
"However, she shouldn't have taken the chance and deceived me!"
"She is utterly unworthy of being the head of the Four Holy Maidens."
Elder Xichen then realized that he had been overthinking things.
The Lord is not one to be merciful.
"My lord, why not drug her and send her back to the border to be burned at the stake?"
Given the current situation, it is extremely difficult to send able-bodied people back to the border.
It is likely that it will be intercepted by various forces.
Yu Sheng said slowly, "There's no need for such trouble."
Elder Xichen: "What are your thoughts, Venerable One?"
The man narrowed his phoenix eyes slightly. "A single spark can start a prairie fire."
"Why not let her suffer the bewitching power of fireflies under the starry sky? It would surely be comparable to being burned alive."
Even Elder Xichen, who was used to all kinds of Gu, still got goosebumps when he heard about the Firefly Gu.
Hundreds of fireflies are placed in a jar, and after forty-nine days, the surviving fireflies become the Gu Mother, who can summon fireflies within a ten-mile radius to help her accomplish great things.
All fireflies that pass by it will mutate at an extremely rapid speed and become poisonous.
They will surround their target tightly, and the faint red glow at the end of their tails will make people feel both cool and hot.
