Chapter 180: It's not unusual for pawns to be used and then discarded.



Ye Lanqiao listened, her feelings complicated.

Even if she wasn't very close to Ye Guzhou, he was still her older brother, and hearing others say that still made her feel a little uncomfortable.

However, given that his elder brother was in the wrong first, he couldn't say much.

Previously, Ye Lanqiao had personally witnessed Li He, the sect leader of the Qingtian Sect, pleading for his rebellious son, Li Si.

The head of a clan threw a tantrum and wept bitterly at the entrance of the Ministry of Justice, displaying a complete disgraceful behavior. He truly deserved it.

Others will feel good watching this.

After being rescued by his father, Li Si showed no remorse.

A few days ago, I don't know who I offended again.

He lost both legs.

Even the best medical practitioners couldn't cure him; he'll be a cripple for the rest of his life.

All the immortal cultivators clapped and cheered.

The insults they hurled were as harsh as they could possibly be.

Ye Lanqiao also cursed a couple of times at the time.

Now that your own family member has become the villain, you realize how painful it is to hear others mock you.

Zheng Nansheng noticed Ye Lanqiao's unease and naturally offered a few words of comfort: "Third Elder, there's no need to worry. The grievances have their perpetrators, and the debts have their debtors; it has nothing to do with you."

Ye Lanqiao nodded in agreement.

Zheng Nansheng spoke to comfort her and reassure her, but also to remind her not to forget her own position.

This young immortal is more suited to be a ruler than his father.

He employs both kindness and severity, demonstrating skillful and experienced tactics.

She handles interpersonal relationships and social interactions with perfect tact.

If they are enemies, then they are truly terrifying.

Ye Lanqiao disliked dealing with people like that the most.

Because you feel completely exposed in front of this kind of person.

All my thoughts were laid bare.

...

The moon sets at the bottom of the cliff.

Lu Wuyan sensed that the restriction had changed.

It's possible that someone discovered something beforehand.

Fortunately, Lin Yu is getting closer and closer.

If we can't wait another hour...

This allows the life-changing formation to be activated ahead of time.

In this way, it will take Ye Guzhou at least an hour to finish absorbing it.

In other words, we need to find a way to delay for two hours to be on the safe side.

It's quite difficult.

But it's not entirely impossible.

He has a second trump card.

The cost of using it is too high.

It's best to avoid using it if possible.

After settling Ye Guzhou in, Lu Wuyan prepared to wait for the people on top to come down.

Ye Guzhou's eyes were deep and unfathomable as he gave Lu Wuyan a mocking smile.

"What makes you so sure that as long as you follow the so-called plot, you will definitely get what you want? As a pawn, it's not unusual for you to be used and then thrown away."

Lu Wuyan said, "Thank you for reminding me, but I have no other choice. There is no other way but to do as instructed."

Ye Guzhou rested his face on his bandaged hand and laughed.

Because the face was missing, the smile looked especially sinister and terrifying.

He had not yet fully absorbed the inner core of the Crow's Cry Bird, but his cultivation had already broken through to the fifth level, and he had sensed the fluctuations of the restriction.

Someone is about to come down.

This person's aura is somewhat similar to that of the person who performed the life-changing array on him back then.

They have similarities, yet are distinctly different; they are not the same person.

The person who was looking for Ye Guzhou had an even more imposing aura and a stronger sense of pressure.

Over the years, Ye Guzhou gradually came to understand one thing.

He may have been used as a pawn.

Failure to break through to the Golden Core stage is quite common.

It was common to see that Ye Guzhou himself didn't realize anything was wrong.

If it weren't for his breakthrough today...

He then believed it was his own problem.

It went too smoothly.

The inner elixir of the Crow's Cry Bird is said to have miraculous effects, but only those who actually absorb it know its true function.

It was indeed very useful for Ye Guzhou.

His cultivation speed is astonishing.

However, it doesn't increase one's cultivation level a thousand or a hundred times as the outside world claims.

The people in Moonlit Crow Valley aren't exactly low-key, but they don't boast about how powerful a demon beast is.

They prefer action to words.

According to Luo Mingyuan, before signing a blood pact with her, the crow had been pestering Su Hanyi.

Su Hanyi was the first person under the command of the Old Ancestor of Wushan.

If the Crow Cry Bird is really as powerful as the outside world says, why would Su Hanyi ignore it?

To say he doesn't know what's good for him is simply a joke.

Ye Guzhou had only seen Su Hanyi once from afar.

But it's also certain that Su Hanyi is definitely not a fool.

It's not like he's some harmless, gentle, and kind-hearted person who appears harmless on the surface.

His nonchalant attitude might not be an act, because he simply doesn't care about things that others treasure.

Once he actually gets his hands on something he cherishes, he might just transform into a demon.

His face was like that of a Buddha, but his heart was like that of a demon.

This version of events is most likely to be close to the truth about Su Hanyi.

The fact that he didn't want the inner core of the Crow's Cry Bird, or even wanted to form a blood pact with it, only shows that in Su Hanyi's heart, the Crow's Cry Bird wasn't good enough.

The rumors about the Crow's Cry came about when Ye Guzhou was about to break through to the Golden Core stage.

Moreover, it was first spread by immortal cultivators.

Ironically, most cultivators have never seen a crow-crying bird.

Yet they were able to make the monster's abilities sound incredibly powerful and believable.

It's absolutely impossible to say that no one was pulling the strings behind the scenes.

However, the person who spoke at the time was an insignificant nobody, and Ye Guzhou didn't pay any attention to him.

I only remember that his surname was Li.

He was a subordinate of Shen Wanjing, the owner of Wanjing Manor.
