Chapter 101 A Wasted Life
"Is this something you want to do?"
Answer the questions asked during the day.
Bu Qingjue said, "Things have come to this point, we must see it through to the end."
He has one more chance to make a wish.
Yes, he can also...
But……
Should he choose to return to reality and live his ideal life, or give the opportunity to someone he's only known for less than a year?
Jie Zhoujian reached out and rubbed the back of his head, as if seeing through him once again, and said, "Before killing Jieyou, you still have time to think about the future."
"..."
The problem now is that the cultivation world is in complete chaos, a veritable hell on earth.
Where will Jieyou, the final villain, hide?
"Do you have any ideas?" Jie Zhoujian said, "You've always had more ideas than I have in this regard."
"..."
Bu Qingjue forced himself to remain calm and assessed the situation, then said, "I guess... it's there."
As the plot unfolds naturally, Ruan Linglai and the others all die due to karma.
Now only Jieyou, who is possessing Yunyuelin's body, remains. As long as Jieyou is killed, the story will definitely be completed.
He owed Yun Yuelin a good time, and now he could finally repay that debt.
Now, all he can rely on must be that incurable Gu poison, so Bu Qingjue guessed that he must be at the bottom of that valley.
I'm not afraid, but I'm not sure if I can get through the daytime. Bu Qingjue specifically reminded me of that before I went.
“Even though the resurrection through possession will require some effort and the Gu worms are not as rampant as they were at the beginning, we still don’t know the extent of their control. So you have to listen to me completely. If I tell you not to go, you absolutely cannot go.”
"good."
Bu Qingjue prepared himself mentally, moistened his dry throat, and said, "I will definitely improve my swordsmanship when I have the chance."
Jie said softly during the day, "Then you must be better than me."
Bu Qingjue wanted to thank him for his continued support and companionship, but he was too ashamed to say it at this moment. He remained silent for a moment and then said, "Let's go."
Valley bottom.
As expected, they fell into Jieyou's trap.
The black aura of the Gu worms was significantly less than before, indicating that they had really sacrificed a lot for his possession. Jie Zhoujian could still deal with the remaining worms and escort Bu Qingjue all the way to the deepest part of the valley.
They had been sent out by Yun Yuelin from this very spot before, and their feelings upon returning were complicated.
On the way here, Bu Qingjue also witnessed a lot of bloody scenes. Jie Zhoujian's sword was ruined, and the two of them picked up two new ones by the roadside.
He did feel nauseous at first, but now he's so numb that he doesn't even gag anymore.
He had only one thought in his mind: to kill and relieve his worries.
Moreover, Jieyou, deep in the valley, was indeed severely injured. He was recuperating there when Bu Qingjue and his companion broke in, leaving him no choice but to fight.
"How did you manage to find this place?" The other person's face was covered with black lines, but this time it was different from the previous signs of poisoning; it was just that he was maintaining his soul state.
Bu Qingjue saw it at a glance and reached out to stop Xie Zhoujian.
"wait."
He lowered his hand that was holding the sword during the day.
Bu Qingjue spoke to Jieyou, "Yes, other people's bodies are very useful, aren't they? Patriarch Jie, I'm very curious how you came up with this idea."
While engaging in conversation and maneuvering, Bu Qingjue observed the positions of the Gu worms around him.
Although he couldn't see it, he always felt that there should be a connection between the Gu worms.
Okay, now calm down and think about it carefully.
I don't know if my wish will have any effect on this world, so I can't rashly let Jie take a daytime adventure.
Based on his current cultivation level, a direct confrontation is definitely not realistic. If it comes down to speed, could he cut down all the Gu worms...?
Bu Qingjue gripped the sword in his hand tightly.
We have no choice but to take a gamble.
After all, he's immune to this stuff, so only he can do this.
In Bu Qingjue's first real battle, his goal was to avoid being touched by his opponent.
With a powerful push of his foot, he sprinted forward, pinpointing several locations precisely.
Jieyou simultaneously discovered what he was about to do and drew her longsword to stop him.
Just as Jie Zhoujian was about to make a move, Bu Qingjue shouted, "Don't move!"
Swords clashed, and Jie Zhoujian gritted his teeth, staring intently at that spot.
Bu Qingjue's hand, which was gripping the sword, was throbbing with pain, but he still held on.
His speed and growth were beyond Jieyou's expectations. With a light turn, Bu Qingjue passed him, and the tip of the sword grazed a hair of Bu Qingjue's head.
"What……"
Just as Jieyou was about to continue the pursuit, the struggle of the other soul within his body gave him a splitting headache. The two souls fought in the same body, buying Bu Qingjue some time.
However, Jieyou quickly broke free. Bu Qingjue was about to kill the last Gu worm when Jieyou stepped forward to stop him, knocking Bu Qingjue away. Just as she was about to strike Bu Qingjue's right hand with her sword, she was pushed away by another great force.
Yun Yuelin's body slammed against the wall, and she spat out a mouthful of blood.
And the swift, daytime strike pierced the last insect.
The worms, now split in two, were still wriggling. This clearly didn't kill them. Bu Qingjue didn't know what could kill them, but severing their connection would be enough.
Jie said during the day, "Great job, you learn very quickly, but you lack strength."
"...I didn't mean for you not to move."
"……Feel sorry."
Bu Qingjue waved his hand, saying that since it was completed smoothly, there was nothing to complain about.
He shouted at the rising dust, "Jieyou, are you going to come out of Yun Yuelin's body on your own, or are we going to beat you out in a bit?"
A laugh suddenly came from within the smoke and dust.
"Do you still think about who you can save?" Jieyou laughed, bending down as she walked out. "If I die, Yun Yuelin will also be corrupted by the Mother Gu, riddled with holes, and rot away to death! Only if I live can he live!"
"..."
Jie Zhoujian: "Despicable and shameless."
“If you can’t bring yourself to do it,” Jieyou stepped forward, sword in hand, “then don’t blame me for being impolite!”
A sound was heard.
Bu Qingjue swung his sword, knocking the sword from Jieyou's hand.
The sword tumbled a few times in the air before embedding itself in the ground some distance away.
Jieyou stepped back and glanced at Bu Qingjue's eyes, and surprisingly felt some pressure and fear.
Bu Qingjue wanted to give it one last try.
He pointed his sword at Jieyou: "Get out here."
Just then, Jieyou coughed up another mouthful of blood.
His expression changed, and both Bu Qingjue and Xie Zhoujian were stunned.
It is the true arrival of the moon and clouds.
The sword tip, which was just inches away, suddenly stopped.
This was Bu Qingjue's first murder.
He didn't want to be Yun Yuelin.
Knowing his hesitation, Jie Zhoujian was unwilling to let things be so cruel, and drew her sword, ready to take his place at any moment.
Damn it, why did it have to happen now?
"..."
Yun Yuelin didn't speak, but turned around and walked towards the sword that had been knocked away.
"What are you all hesitating for..."
"Yun Yue Lin!" Bu Qing Jue struggled one last time: "Force him out! Don't move!"
In fact, Jieyou is right.
Without Jieyou, Yunyuelin would not survive.
He knows his own body best.
Yun Yuelin pulled the sword out of the ground.
His gift for his twentieth birthday still doesn't have a name.
"The moon and clouds descend!"
Bu Qingjue instinctively wanted to stop him; this was the only thing he could still participate in after experiencing so many casualties, and he didn't want it to end like this.
He couldn't just let it go like that.
Sending someone off on their journey personally...
There must be a way, there must be some way to save Yun Yue Lin...
Even if it's just to save one more person...!
We need to keep him calm!
"Yun Chunhua! Stop right there!"
Yun Yuelin's hand, which was holding a sword, paused for a moment: "...Damn it, what did you call me?"
"If you don't stop, you'll be called this nickname in your next life, and the life after that!"
"...Tch," Yun Yuelin said, taking a short rest before his death. His body was covered in wounds. He spat, "It sounds awful. Have you ever had a good name in your life?"
“It’s been taken,” Bu Qingjue sighed, “It’s been taken…”
Jie closed his eyes during the day, his expression filled with resentment, but he knew he was powerless to do anything about it.
Yun Yue Lin didn't respond, her mind made up.
"The moon and clouds descend...!"
"I will use this sword of wasted life to end my life, which is as light as a feather. That would make my life worthwhile. From this moment on, I, Yun Yue Lin Wen, have no regrets."
Qingjue only saw that his handsome face was covered with black lines, followed by blooming blood that stained the moonlit flower branches red.
"..."
“Qingjue…!” Jie Zhoujian supported Bu Qingjue, whose legs were weak, and slumped to the ground with him.
"Take a deep breath and look at me."
Bu Qingjue breathed heavily into the stuffy air, which was filled with the stench of blood and dust, making his eyes red.
“Qingjue,” Jie Zhoujian gritted his teeth, “this is a wish that was born from the moment he was possessed, and it is a kind of liberation for him.”
"Like me, I had thought about it before, but in the end I thought I couldn't die without knowing why, so I decided to fake my death and run away. Otherwise, you wouldn't have come to the Xie family's door and wouldn't have met me, right?"
Bu Qingjue simply couldn't bring himself to say it.
Jie Zhoujian should have died from the beginning anyway.
He should even be the one who died the most hastily.
However, they were treated as tools and bound together with themselves.
Like Yun Yuelin and the others, he probably didn't have to accept this ending. It would have been easier for him to just die. Why did he have to watch so many tragic dramas with him?
"I'm sorry..." Bu Qingjue felt a pain in her eyes, unable to shed a single tear, but her nose stung with tears. "I'm sorry..."
He wanted to say sorry rather than thank you.
He is not strong enough, not smart enough, and not capable enough.
Blindly following the tasks and thinking oneself clever led the system into a trap, resulting in this situation.
“You don’t need to, you don’t need to apologize,” Jie Zhoujian shook his head: “You’re determined to kill Jieyou, there must be some room for maneuver, I believe you.”
"..."
Yes, there is room for maneuver.
There's still room for maneuver.
They're all dead... Everyone's dead...
So, he should have completed all his tasks.
What about the system?
system!
Get out here! Stop pretending to be dead!
