The bloodstains on her body had already darkened... and were largely covered by the snow, but they were still shocking, and her haggard face made people feel pity.
That night, Bai Yunshu actually felt extremely relaxed in his heart. He indulged himself in hugging the pile of clothes greedily and buried his face in them.
It hurts, it hurts so much, but I can't cry. My eyes are sore and my heart aches.
The wound was not a big deal. After she got there, she dug up the grave and used hemostatics to prevent the blood from staining her internal organs.
When the moon just rose, she wanted to reach out and touch the tombstone, but seeing her body covered in blood, she was afraid of dirtying it.
After she cleaned it up with magic, she touched the words Qi Ningzhu and spoke.
"My little disciple, I am here to see you. Are you doing well here alone?"
"Master misses you so much, so much...but Master is afraid, afraid that your heart has never been here for Master."
"Now, Master seems to understand something... It's really unfortunate, but what does it matter? Master wants to tie you to his side. Master will protect you well. As long as the Demon King shows up, Master will be able to fulfill your wish and repay you."
"People can change, but I am stubborn and don't want to believe it. If you were me, you wouldn't say these words, right? You like me the most, and you also said that you like Master the most. I miss you..."
As she spoke, she dug the grave little by little, wanting to be closer to her.
When she opened the coffin and saw the things she had placed inside when she built her cenotaph, she realized how close she was to Ningzhu.
Ning Zhu's natal sword was still lying there. She had gone there in a hurry that day and had not taken it with her. No one could open it except herself.
She lay down, touched the wound on her abdomen, and forced a smile.
"This is what I owe you... the price I pay for deceiving you.
This wound reminded her of what happened before, Ning Zhu asked her curiously.
"How can a person as powerful as Master get hurt?"
She thought about it and shook her head slightly.
"Generally speaking, no."
Ningzhu looked at her with admiration.
"Master is so powerful. There should be no one in this world who can hurt Master. My Master is the best in the world! From now on, I will be the second best in the world and not embarrass you."
Bai Yunshu smiled, nodded slightly, and touched Qi Ningzhu's head.
She wanted to say that it didn't exist before, but it exists now.
But she also firmly believed that Ningzhu would not hurt her.
"Of course, no one can hurt a master, unless the master is willing to be hurt."
Qi Ningzhu couldn't quite understand what was said.
“When will you voluntarily get hurt?”
Bai Yunshu was silent for a long time, and then he spoke out.
"If the person in front of me is extremely important to me and she wants my life, I will give it to her without hesitation."
“Does Master have such a person in his heart?”
Bai Yunshu thought about it and shook his head.
"no."
Even when her master asked her to prepare for the sacrifice, she hesitated and was selfishly afraid, not wanting to hand her life over to the Devil's Abyss.
Hearing Bai Yunshu's words, Qi Ningzhu silently breathed a sigh of relief, and then laughed happily.
"That's good. Even if there is, it won't work. Master won't die easily, but Master will feel pain, which is not good at all."
Bai Yunshu looked at her with a smile, and kept her concern in his heart.
But now, her eyes were filled with sorrow, and she just wanted to stay inside for a while.
No one will disturb you here, so you can express your thoughts freely.
As for this injury, let me just use it as a reminder for now.
"Master..."
This scene had such a huge impact on Qi Ningzhu that she murmured subconsciously, trying her best to suppress the heartache that welled up in her heart.
I shouldn't have any feelings for her anymore, nor should I
But after I shouted it out, I immediately regretted it.
It's over... Bai Yunshu probably doesn't know she's here, and shouting like that might wake her up.
But in such an icy and snowy environment, and still in a coffin, it was a bit abnormal.
If she were seen by ordinary people, they might beat her up as a grave robber.
His own natal sword was also held tightly by her, and he didn't know if he could still use it.
That sword can be considered a good treasure. It was given to him by Bai Yunshu himself. It has been with him for a hundred years, and Duoduo has some feelings for it.
After Qi Ningzhu called out that, Bai Yunshu frowned.
She didn't like being disturbed at this moment and even wanted to pretend that she didn't hear it.
But she was a little curious about how Qi Ningzhu would react when she saw her like this.
The call of "Master" just now didn't sound fake. Come to think of it, she was actually willing to call herself Master...
Bai Yunshu slowly opened his eyes, looked at Qi Ningzhu for a moment, and then slowly closed his eyes, as if he didn't want to see her.
"This place has nothing to do with you. What are you doing here? Go away. You are not welcome here. My disciple does not welcome you either."
She spoke with a tired look on her face and a hoarse voice.
"My grave is here, how come it has nothing to do with me? Your apprentice doesn't welcome me? How do you know your apprentice doesn't welcome me?"
Qi Ningzhu found it inexplicably funny.
Did this person become stupid after sleeping here?
Bai Yunshu, however, looked serious.
"This is not your grave. It has nothing to do with you."
Qi Ningzhu had a puzzled look on his face and spoke tentatively.
"If this isn't my grave, whose grave is it? If it isn't my grave, then why is my name on the tombstone?"
Bai Yunshu was too lazy to even glance at her and directly expressed his attitude.
"You are Yin Huan. This grave belongs to my disciple. You are not her. You should not come here. I don't want you anymore, and I don't owe you anything. In a few days I will go back to the sect to write a letter of acknowledgment and have someone send you back."
Qi Ningzhu was choked by her words and felt terrible.
What does Bai Yunshu mean by this? Is he really going to... kick her out of his sect?
If I am not Qi Ningzhu, then who am I? Bai Yunshu seemed to be hit hard by what I said before, and now she no longer wanted to recognize her.
It seems that Bai Yunshu doesn't owe me anything. The one who owes me is Tao Yiying. But Tao Yiying did it for her. After all, doesn't it still be Bai Yunshu who owes me?
"You don't owe me? Bai Yunshu, anyone can say they don't owe me, except you and Tao Yiyue. I am Moyuan, and she pushed me away for you, so you should be the one to suffer!"
Qi Ningzhu spoke with gritted teeth, but Bai Yunshu was too lazy to listen.
"Really? The one who suffered for me was my apprentice Qi Ningzhu. What does it have to do with your secret love? Didn't you say before that you are not her... I have always regarded you as her substitute, until yesterday, when I suddenly saw clearly that I was obsessed too much."
She kept talking nonsense, and her words became more and more outrageous. Qi Ningzhu was furious.
