Chapter 343: Sword Master in Danger
"No need to thank me, just think of a good reason to explain yourself!" Ji Junrui was not stupid. Ning Ruoxi must have left for something without reason, and it might have something to do with the Beiyin Imperial Palace...
The two of them knew each other's thoughts very well.
I won't kill you as long as you don't tell on me.
Don't kill me if I don't tell on you...
In the evening, Fu Liyang came back and when he saw Ning Ruoxi, he immediately asked her where she had been.
"Ning Baibai, where have you been these days?" Fu Liyang was a little angry. It was the first time he felt that Ning Ruoxi made him so worried.
Ning Ruoxi humbly admitted her mistake and explained, "Palace Master, I have my reasons. At that time, two peak Immortal Emperors came. They didn't look like ordinary people and attacked our flying boat."
"My disciples and others fled in all directions. I didn't know where I went. Unfortunately, I met three bandits. They attacked me for no reason. I was lucky enough to kill them, but I was also injured."
"I have been hiding in the dark to heal my wounds these past few days. I never expected that the Ancient Rhythm Realm would be so chaotic..."
Fu Liyang had already noticed that Ning Ruoxi's breathing was weak, and combined with her words, it did seem somewhat credible.
However, Ning Ruoxi's weak breath was not caused by injury, but because of the loss of her essence and blood.
Ji Junrui chimed in, "Now that the demons have invaded the fairyland, it's common for some villains to take advantage of this to make trouble and profit."
"Okay, have a good rest! When the Immortal Emperor Palace brings a new flying boat, we can go back to the fairyland." Fu Liyang did not delve into it.
Three days later, a new batch of flying boats arrived, and disciples from each hall boarded the flying boats and set off back to the fairyland.
The Beiyin Imperial Palace thus became history.
On Yunshan Mountain, disciples from each hall came down and lined up to register their names. All absent disciples were included in the death list of the Temple of Immortals and Gods.
Gui Zhixuan's face looked very unhappy because he had not found Jiang Wanyi yet, but Fu Liyang found Ning Ruoxi.
"Ning Baibai!" Gui Zhixuan's breath was icy. He asked Ning Ruoxi in a cold voice: "Where is Jiang Wanyi? Did you kill her?"
"Jiang Wanyi? Is she dead?" Ning Ruoxi didn't know anything about Jiang Wanyi.
Ji Junrui explained in a low voice: "Junior Sister Ning, Jiang Wanyi has disappeared and has not been found yet. It is very likely..."
Ning Ruoxi didn't need to hear what was said next to understand what was going on. It was simply that Gui Zhixuan suspected that she had killed Jiang Wanyi.
"Ning Baibai, stop playing dumb! It must be you!" Gui Zhixuan looked excited and was about to step forward to cause trouble for Ning Ruoxi, but Fu Liyang stepped forward in time.
"Old ghost, try to move one of us! It's just the right time to settle our old and new grudges together."
The gatekeeping disciples were stuck in the middle and didn't know what to say. No matter which hall master it was, they couldn't afford to offend him.
The other hall masters came out to act as peacemakers, "Old ghost, why are you wrongly accusing Ning Baibai without any evidence?"
"Yes! If you go back to Ancient Rhythm Realm now and look for her, you might be able to find Jiang Wanyi!"
“…”
"Old ghost, if you dare to cause trouble at the entrance of Yunshan Mountain, you will be in trouble if the news gets to the Grand Hall Master."
Gui Zhixuan's face turned pale and he immediately flew away from Yunshan. Just as the palace master said, if he went back to Guyun Tianyu to look for it now, he might be able to find some useful clues.
After returning to the Immortal God Temple, all the disciples dispersed. Ning Ruoxi took out the Heavenly Secret Pearl in the cave and asked, "Is Jiang Wanyi dead?"
"Not dead."
"Not dead? Then why didn't she go back to the Immortal Temple?" Ning Ruoxi was a little confused. At that time, the generals on both sides didn't have time to kill someone specifically.
Even if Jiang Wanyi was injured, Gui Zhixuan should have found her, so why couldn't he find her?
There is only one possibility... Jiang Wanyi herself doesn't want to be found!
Otherwise it would be hard to explain why she is still alive and doesn't return to the Immortal Temple.
"Why doesn't Jiang Wanyi return to the Immortal Temple?" Ning Ruoxi continued to ask.
"Jiang Wanyi wants to avenge her mother."
"Jiang Wanyi's mother?" Ning Ruoxi put away the Heavenly Secret Pearl, and the Heavenly Secret Pearl started again, answering only half of the questions.
Ning Ruoxi felt that there was no need to ask further about who Jiang Wanyi's mother was.
Since Jiang Wanyi is not returning to the Temple of Immortal Gods, the situation in the Temple of Immortal Gods will be much more peaceful. At least no disciples from the Fourth Temple will come to the Seventh Temple to cause trouble.
"Master probably doesn't know that something happened in the Beiyin Imperial Palace. I should think of a way to convey the message to Master..." Ning Ruoxi was also worried that Lin Shuang would lose her mind after knowing what happened to Xuanji and would directly cause trouble in the Immortal Temple. So Ning Ruoxi opened the Tianxuan Secret Realm and communicated with General Zuo at the entrance.
“General Zuo, take this Nine Palaces and Eight Diagrams card to the Shenxu Sect to find Baihun Motian, and ask them to go to the Tianshui Tavern in Yunzhong City to find my master in Room 3. Tell me about my master’s secret. Don’t let my master act impulsively.”
“Yes, Son of God!” After taking the Nine Palaces and Eight Diagrams card, General Zuo left the Tianxuan Secret Realm through the Ascension Road.
As for the matter of the Sword Master, Ning Ruoxi could only find another way.
She came to the Seventh Palace and met Fu Liyang.
Fu Liyang was a little surprised by Ning Ruoxi's arrival, "Why are you here?"
"Palace Master, I would like to ask about the Sword Master's news..." Ning Ruoxi said tentatively.
When the Sword Master was mentioned, Fu Liyang understood everything. He knew that Ning Ruoxi was worried about the Sword Master's safety.
"I know that the Sword Master has done you a favor, but the Sword Master killed a Hall Master this time. The Great Hall Master and the Second Hall Master will not let the Sword Master go easily."
Ning Ruoxi's heart sank. Sure enough, the Immortal God Temple would not let the Sword Master go.
"But the Sword Master shouldn't be in any danger in the short term. You saw what happened at the time. Even the ten of us hall masters combined were no match for the Sword Master, and he even killed one of us."
"Now there are only nine hall masters left. Gui Zhixuan is focused on finding Jiang Wanyi and has no intention of joining forces with us to deal with the Sword Master. The chances of the eight hall masters defeating the Sword Master are even smaller."
"Will the Grand Hall Master take action?"
"Won't."
Ning Ruoxi didn't know why Fu Liyang was so sure that Huang Tian would not take action. It seemed that every time she asked this, Fu Liyang said that Huang Tian would not take action. Why was that?
In Ning Ruoxi's memory, the only time she saw Huang Tian take action was when he dealt with Zhulong.
Ning Ruoxi bid farewell to Fu Liyang and left the Seventh Palace.
"Is there any restriction on Huang Tian's attack?" Ning Ruoxi guessed, "As long as Huang Tian and Cang Tian don't take action, the Sword Master will not be in any danger."
However, just in case, Ning Ruoxi still asked Tianjizhu, "Will the Sword Master be in danger?"
Tianjizhu's answer made Ning Ruoxi frown, "Yes!"
"Who wants to kill the Sword Master?" Ning Ruoxi continued to ask Tianjizhu.
"Demon King!"
