Chapter 77 (Revealing the Truth)



Mu Ranwu looked at the pretty girl who was standing beside the tall and handsome Su Yishui in the afterglow of the setting sun, looking up and smiling sweetly. The familiar envy mixed with the hatred that wanted to replace her came over her again.

Why was she inferior to Xue Ranran in this life? Why did even fools like Wang Suizhi and Qin Xuanjiu, who were under her spell, abandon him one by one?

And Xue Ranran seemed to be calmly taking back everything that once belonged to her!

Thinking of this, Mu Ranwu's nails dug deeply into the palm of her hand again...

At this time, the Five Evils were screaming miserably. Because they had different entrances, their experiences were also different.

Yue Sheng relied on his high level of cultivation and his intelligence to follow the people from the Alien House into the West Gate. Now that I think about it, it must be dangerous...

At this time, two elders from the Feiyun Sect and Kongshan Sect of the East Gate stumbled out. However, they seemed to be poisoned, and their faces were purple and blue.

Several disciples from Xishan saw this and did not dare to help. They could only quickly hand over the medicine gourd and water bag containing the antidote pill.

After several elders took the detoxification pills, they sat in meditation on the spot and spat out a mouthful of black blood. Only then did they recover their breath and say that they had entered a formation of giant mosquitoes. The spikes of those giant mosquitoes were full of poison. They also suffered a lot of damage to their cultivation, so they barely escaped.

As for the other formations, no one was seen coming out for a long time. As for the famous Jiuhua Sect, it seemed that the entire army was wiped out and no one came out.

The Jiuhua Sect, once the leader of the three famous sects, is now on an irreversible path to decline...

At this moment, Simon also moved, and someone stumbled out.

It was actually Old Feng, whose eyes were bleeding. He seemed to be completely blind, crawling and rolling on the ground, wailing. Yue Sheng also staggered out, but his right arm was completely cut off, and he might never be able to use his wonderful sword again.

It turned out that they had entered a mirage array. When Lao Feng used his Yin-Yang eyes to look around, he didn't see any scary or evil things, so he chose this place.

His eyes were seeing correctly; there were indeed no evil creatures in this formation like in the other four formations.

But he never expected that the most terrifying thing in this formation is the person who entered the formation.

After entering the formation, the evil spirit in the formation will maximize everyone's potential and at the same time maximize people's greed. When they kill each other, they can also deprive each other of their supernatural energy and transfer it to their own bodies. If they can kill all the remaining people, then the cultivation gained in the formation for half a day will be equivalent to the cultivation gained by many powerful people for most of their lives.

The pair of yin and yang eyes that Lao Feng was proud of also became a coveted supernatural power.

In short, this mirage array is good at confusing people and instigating those who enter the array to kill each other. When they lose their most precious things, they can leave the array.

Old Feng was blinded by Yue Sheng, while Yue Sheng's face and right arm were destroyed by Old Feng.

But when they came out, the true energy they had gained in the formation suddenly disappeared like a deflated bag.

The two men suddenly woke up from a dream, and they didn't understand why they had lost all their rationality and killed each other crazily. In the end, they got nothing, and lost both their wife and their troops.

Ran Ran looked at his disfigured and disabled junior brother, who was rolling on the ground crying and wailing, and hurriedly followed the others to bandage him.

But she really couldn't feel sympathy for this junior fellow apprentice. If he hadn't been so smart and rushed into the west gate first, he wouldn't have ended up like this.

Yue Sheng would definitely not be able to move forward like this. So Shen Kuang, who was close to him, took the initiative to stay at the foot of the mountain to take care of his fellow apprentice and wait for his master and his friends to return.

After this arrangement, the only ones who stepped into the main gate of Chimen intact were Xishan's group, Mu Ranwu's group, and a few elders like Kongshan Feiyun who were able to stand.

Tu Jiuyi stood at the door early to "welcome" the distinguished guests who had come from afar.

Wei Yan actually did what he said. As long as someone passed the evil formation, he would give them a grand welcome.

After entering the Red Gate, drinks were already laid out in the lobby of the Red Gate. Wei Yan, wearing a black robe with gold sprinkled on it, sat on a high seat to welcome Xishan's group.

When the Five Evils Formation was formed just now, he sat upright on the top of the Red Flame Mountain, looking at the blazing formation below the mountain, swaying his wine glass leisurely, silently calculating the time.

The group from Xishan actually chose the North Main Gate which looked the most dangerous.

This was beyond Wei Yan's expectation. Anyone who was not stupid could see the danger of the North Gate. Unfortunately, Xue Ranran foolishly followed Su Yishui and took the risk. It was unknown whether he could get out safely.

It seems that Su Yishui has indeed lost part of his memory, otherwise he would never let Xue Ranran experience such a dangerous situation.

Thinking about how the little girl had only written one word "get lost" in the letter to him, Wei Yan felt angry every time he thought about it.

The girl who had rejected him several times was ignorant of manners and had to suffer a little! Otherwise, she really didn't know how much mercy he had shown her.

Although he felt somewhat relieved when thinking of Xue Ranran's tragic death in the battle, when he saw them coming out, Wei Yan actually breathed a sigh of relief for Xue Ranran.

Although she didn't have him in her heart, it would be a pity for Wei Yan if she died in the battle. Even if she died...she should die at his hands!

Wei Zun Shang didn't realize at all that his thoughts had become distorted beyond recognition. He just smiled sinisterly and looked at Xue Ranran, who seemed to have become much more beautiful.

Ran Ran had never expected that after a thrilling battle of the Five Evils, Wei Yan would actually hold a Hongmen Banquet. What was the purpose of this feast and entertainment?

Wei Xuan said lazily, "Before, because of the spiritual spring, Chimen and Xishan had some unpleasantness. However, now that the demons from the underworld are pouring out and the world is in chaos, Chimen naturally cannot remain immune. Although the gold-tempering fire is rumored to be on Chiyan Mountain, I have never seen it. Before, I set up the Five Evils Formation to test everyone's strength. Otherwise, if all kinds of cats and dogs entered my mountain gate, wouldn't it be too noisy?"

The elders of Feiyun Sect had already forced out most of the mosquito poison. After hearing what Wei Yan said and thinking about the several disciples who were killed in the battle, they were so angry that their teeth itched. They asked in a harsh voice: "So, Master Wei has agreed that we can take the Tempering Gold Fire away?"

A sly smile appeared on Wei Yan's feminine face: "I do agree, but the premise is that you have to find the tempered gold and have the ability to take it away!"

There was something else behind his words, which made everyone feel relaxed, but his intention to temporarily stop the war was obvious.

The people who came here thought they would have to fight another fierce battle with the people of Chimen, but they didn't expect Wei Yan to be so easy to talk to. For a moment, they were half-believing and half-doubting, wondering what the devil leader was thinking.

However, Wei Yan was very considerate and arranged rooms for them, and allowed them to go to the hottest back mountain of Chiyan Mountain on the second day to look for the gold-tempering fire.

However, those who went up the mountain were obviously unwilling to stay at the main hall of Chimen, and went directly to the back mountain to sleep. Although it was a bit hot, there was no wall to block the heat, so they formed a formation and looked out for each other, and could also guard against the people of Chimen's conspiracy.

After these people dispersed, Tu Jiuyi asked in a low voice: "Your Majesty, are you really going to let them search around Chiyan Mountain? The demons from the underworld are causing chaos in the world, what does it have to do with us?"

Wei Yan snorted coldly: "Elder Tu, what do you think of the temperature on the mountain this year?"

Tu Jiuyi thought for a moment and said, "It seems to be much hotter than last year..."

Wei Yan narrowed his eyes: "Although our Chimen belongs to the element of fire, our disciples are not barbecued meat. If the temperature of Chiyan Mountain continues to rise, our Chimen will have to give up this century-old foundation and the rare Taoist temple. If I am not mistaken, it must be this gold-quenching fire that makes the temperature of Chiyan Mountain continue to rise, so they'd better help me find this thing. Then, I will seize it. If the people of the world want to live in peace, they have to rely on us Chimen..."

When Tu Jiuyi heard this, he realized that Wei Yan was thinking of "the mantis stalks the cicada, while the oriole is behind it."

He set up the Five Evils Formation to screen for talents that can be used, and at the same time to weaken the strength of the righteous. Even if they find the gold-tempering fire, they will be outnumbered and can only be slaughtered by the Red Gate.

By then, Akamon can also reap the benefits.

However, the Xishan sect only lost one disciple and was able to return to the mountain unscathed, which was beyond Tu Jiuyi's expectations.

Thinking of Xue Ranran, Tu Jiuyi touched his chest where the internal injuries had not yet healed, and felt a mixed mood.

She was an orphan, adopted by Chimen since she was a child, and her hands were stained with countless blood. However, although she was vicious, she was unwilling to owe anyone anything. She hated debts of gratitude even more.

Back in the underworld, if Xue Ranran hadn't come to her aid, she would have died in the underworld and never been reborn.

She would have to find a chance to repay this debt of favor. Thinking of this, Tu Jiuyi left the hall, called her attendant, and ordered him to prepare more ice water to send to the group of people in Xishan in the back mountain. If she only gave it to Xue Ranran, it would be a bit eye-catching and would cause His Majesty to have unnecessary suspicion, so Tu Jiuyi simply fulfilled his duty as a host and sent all the ice water to cool them down.

Tu Jiuyi sighed. The Red Flame Mountain was indeed too hot. The seemingly fragile girl was probably not suited to the heat waves on the mountain...

Xue Ranran was indeed very hot, so she envied her fellow disciples who could go shirtless.

When she reached the back of the mountain, she had already taken off her outer clothes, leaving only a thin shirt. Even so, Ran Ran thought seriously to see if she had room to take off another piece of clothing.

But after a while, she felt a refreshing coolness, and when she turned around, she saw Su Yishui had sat down next to her at some point, and had naturally used his true energy to form a spiritual shield to block out the scorching heat outside.

He was still dressed neatly in his long gown and feather cap, without a single drop of sweat on his forehead.

Ranran didn't dare to use her true energy rashly now, and certainly wouldn't waste it so extravagantly. She wiped the sweat from her forehead and gave her master a grateful smile.

Su Yishui looked at the beads of sweat on Ran Ran's fair skin, her thin shirt was soaked, making her figure look even more slender, which suddenly made him feel irritated.

Ran Ran felt that the temperature of the spiritual shield that Master had activated suddenly rose, causing her to break out in a thin layer of sweat. So she couldn't help but say, "Master, you should put away the spiritual shield. The temperature here is not much different from the surroundings..."

After being reminded by Ranran, Su Yishui reluctantly turned his gaze away from her sweaty little face and continued to concentrate his energy, so the temperature in the spirit shield suddenly dropped a lot.

After a while, several buckets of water with ice cubes were brought in by Akamon's servants.

Wei Yan knew how to enjoy himself, and he also used the spirit shield to build an ice cave, so no matter how hot the Red Flame Mountain was, he would always have ice water to drink.

Qiu Xier didn't know that this was Tu Jiuyi's way of repaying Ran Ran's life-saving favor, and she thought that Wei Yan was being attentive to Ran Ran again.

Thinking back to the past, Wei Yan had sent many gifts to Xishan! So Qiu Xier asked Ran Ran blankly: "I thought Wei Yan had given up on you, why did he send you ice water again? You can't drink the water he sent!"

Su Yishui tilted his head slightly, lowered his head and asked Ran Ran: "What about Wei Yan pestering you?"

Ran Ran thought about it and felt that Wei Yan was not a problem. The Demon Lord was very concerned about his reputation and had hit many walls before, so he would not openly ask for trouble.

So she asked the servant who brought the water who gave the order.

The attendant said, "It was our Elder Tu who said that all who come are guests. In that case, we will prepare some ice water for you to cool down."

Sure enough, afterwards, everyone from Kongshan Sect, Feiyun Sect, and Mu Ranwu all got ice water, and they were all treated equally.

Ranran didn't ask any more questions, but she did think briefly about Tu Jiuyi in her heart.

When Ran Ran was about to leave the hall, she actually muttered that it would be nice to have some ice water. At that time, Tu Jiuyi even glanced at her... If that was true, then Tu Jiuyi was also a person of good temperament...

After Su Yishui asked the question, he waited for a while, but Ranran did not answer. He only found that she began to daydream with a slight smile on her lips.

Could it be that the thought of Wei Yan's attentiveness and consideration had aroused the girl's interest?

Thinking of how Mu Ranwu in his previous life also looked like someone who was easy to hook up with, Su Yishui's heart sank, and a strange sour smell seemed to gradually surge up.

He suddenly remembered that Ranran once mentioned that she had someone in her heart, and that the man was a petty and mean man with bad character.

At first, Su Yishui was still wondering, how could there be such an annoying man in the world?

But now, he suddenly realized something. Could it be that... the man that this girl was talking about, who everyone else thought was a bad guy... was the evil cultivator Wei Yan?

At this moment, he was not thinking about whether Ran Ran would turn against him in the battle, but a surge of anger that he could not suppress no matter how hard he tried - after all, she was still his disciple in this life, why did she look so ignorant? Anyone could be so obsessed with her!

"... Wei Yan is just good-looking, but he doesn't have any masculinity. You have met few men, so don't be fooled by his sweet words."

Thinking of this, Su Yishui rarely acted like a master and taught his apprentice in a serious manner.

Ran Ran didn't understand why Wei Yan was suddenly mentioned. She didn't dare to drink the ice water, but just moved it to her side to fan it to cool down. Suddenly she heard what her master said but didn't dare to agree. She didn't think she had seen few men, so she whispered: "Who said I have seen few men, at least you are better looking than Wei Yan..."

Su Yishui hated it most in his life when people talked about his appearance, but when this little girl raised her eyelids and said that he was better looking than Wei Yan, he suddenly felt relieved.

Then the temperature in the spirit shield became icy cold again, and there was no need to use the bucket of ice water!

Before the sun rose on the second day, the temperature of the Red Flame Mountain dropped slightly, and everyone decided to use this opportunity to look for the gold-tempering fire.

At that time, the Mighty Shield Sky fought for a long time here. The rocks here are rugged and traces of the fight can be found everywhere.

For example, the only river valley in the Red Flame Mountain looked like it was created by someone using a huge spiritual force.

When everyone started looking, Wei Yan also appeared. He stood at the edge of the cliff, silently watching the expressionless guards following Mu Ranwu for a while, and suddenly said: "She actually got involved with the Brahma Sect. She is not smart, but she wants to play with the eagle... She is not afraid of being pecked in the eye by the eagle, which is quite interesting!"

At this moment, he saw Xue Ranran standing next to Su Yishui. Xue Ranran seemed to be saying something, but the man next to her was serious and looked like he was being rejected by someone.

Seeing Ran Ran's embarrassed look, Wei Yan finally felt happy for once after all these days. In this way, it was worth his cooperation with the Brahma Sect and his exchange of the ancient book for the Wine Immortal.

The soul-cleansing talisman is truly amazing!

Wei Yan decided to add fuel to the fire and make Xue Ranran's life in Xishan more difficult, so he asked his servants to hold up a large umbrella and gracefully descend from the top of the cliff, and stood in front of Su Yishui with a smile.

"Why, you still let this girl stay with you? I remember that you hated her enough in your previous life."

Xue Ranran raised her head suddenly and immediately understood what Wei Yan was going to say.

Ranran had just had a quarrel with her master. She had clearly told him not to transfer any more true energy to her, but last night while she was sleeping, Su Yishui still transferred a lot of true energy to her.

After finishing meditation this morning, he, who usually had a strong posture, felt his legs go weak when he stood up, which made Ranran feel very distressed.

That’s why she had just solemnly “warned” her master that if he got angry again, don’t blame her for leaving without saying goodbye and finding a deserted corner to fend for herself.

Su Yishui also frowned and said coldly: "Xue Ranran, you have become more capable. You actually dare to threaten me? You have my Jindan aura on you. Even if you hide in a cesspool, I can pull you out!"

So the master and the disciple turned their faces away and ignored each other.

At this moment, Wei Yan, wearing a black robe, suddenly descended from the sky like a crow, making endless noise.

Before she could speak, Ran Ran had already stood in front of Su Yishui and said cautiously: "Master Wei, please make way. If you stand here, the compass in my hand will not move at all."

Wei Yan naturally saw that she wanted to cover his mouth. It was such a comfortable feeling to finally have the little girl under his control!

He was like a cat with its tail held down, raising his eyebrows and deliberately lowering his voice: "What's wrong? Is it the compass in your hand, or is your heart so frightened that it can't move. By the way, you don't know how much your master hated Mu Qingge! He really wanted to shoot an arrow through his heart... Oh, damn it... Su, you actually sneaked up on me!"

Wei Yan didn't know that the way he raised his eyebrows and lowered his head deliberately to intimidate Xue Ranran just now, in the eyes of the people who had the soul-cleansing talisman attached to them, was just a scoundrel molesting a beautiful and decent girl.

Wei Yan was so arrogant that he flirted with his apprentice in front of him without restraint.

Su Yishui never took Wei Yan seriously, so he raised his hand and a thunderbolt struck Wei Yan.

Wei Yan was a little arrogant in his own territory, and he had just signed a ceasefire agreement with them yesterday. He didn't expect Su Yishui to turn against him so suddenly, and he was almost struck by lightning.

"Sir, please stay away from my apprentice, or don't blame me for being rude!" After receiving the thunderbolt, Su Yishui warned him lightly.

Ran Ran saw the smile on Wei Yan's face that was twisted due to anger, and thought to herself: "Oh no, I'm afraid I can't stop this lunatic from talking this time..."

As expected, Wei Yan sneered and decided to stir up a big hornet's nest for Xishan's master and apprentice: "What apprentice? Are you stupid because of the soul-cleansing talisman? She is obviously your master! Don't you realize that Xue Ranran is the reincarnation of Mu Qingge?"

As soon as these words came out, it was like a thunderclap, and everyone present looked over in surprise.

Mu Ranwu was a little confused at first and didn't understand what was going on here, but when Wei Yan mentioned the "Soul Cleansing Talisman", she suddenly understood.

It turns out that Su Yishui was plotted against by Wei Yan before, and his memory of love for his sister was erased... She certainly knew how much Su Yishui hated her sister in the past. If Su Yishui returned to the way he was then, it would be... interesting!

Therefore, even if Wei Yan revealed the secret that she had tried so hard to hide in the Red Flame Valley, Mu Ranwu felt extremely happy. She brought people from the Brahma Sect this time, without those loyal disciples, so it didn't matter if they accepted it.

When she saw that Su Yishui didn't seem to believe Wei Yan's words, she said slowly: "Sister, why didn't you tell Yishui the truth? You are the reincarnation of Mu Qingge, but in order to stay by Su Yishui's side, you exchanged identities with me and pretended to be a naive little girl... Even I, as your younger sister, admire your infatuation and dedication!"

Ranran knew that Mu Ranwuzi was talking nonsense, but her choice of words just pricked Su Yishui's lungs.

What Su Yishui hated most in his life was Mu Qingge's "persistent and ruthless beating" of him, forcing him to take him as his disciple and teasing him from time to time.

If Su Yishui misunderstood that she was pretending to be Mu Ranwu on purpose so that she could continue to pester him... then according to Su Yishui's current ferocious temper, he would definitely tear her apart with his bare hands...

But this was not the time to yell "Please listen to my explanation" without any excuse, so Ran Ran was determined not to do that useless thing, and just stared at her simply and clearly. Su Yishui, with his eyes gradually turning red, whispered in secret: "Things have their priorities, it doesn't matter who I am. Now we have to find the Tempering Gold Fire and the Drunken Immortal first. When you have recovered your memory, I will listen to your instructions..."

Su Yishui was originally waiting for the girl's explanation. As long as she was willing to explain, no matter how outrageous her words were, he was willing to believe them temporarily.

But I didn't expect that this girl would readily agree to Wei Yan's nonsense. She said she would obey the order? It was a disguised admission that she... was the reincarnation of Mu Qingge!

The thought that he had actually fallen in love with this female demon made the former demon's eyes turn red even without the spiritual spring possessing him.
