Chapter 108 The Eldest Disciple of the Joyous Union Sect VS Grandmaster Guangfeng Jiyue 25
Upon seeing Si Ye, Xu Wenye knew that Jiang Zhiyi was still alive. If she had truly died, her sword spirit would have dissipated, but Si Ye was still fine.
She must be suffering some inhuman torment, in excruciating pain, struggling on the edge of life and death, because Siye would have problems from time to time.
He must find her; if she is truly dead... he will absolutely not live on alone.
On the other side...
"What should we do?" Jiang Zhiyi sighed helplessly.
"I don't know." Tuan Tuan looked worried.
The mission is complete, but every time Jiang Zhiyi prepares to leave the dimensional world, something goes wrong on Xu Wenye's end—
He wanted to die.
If the male protagonist dies as a result, all subsequent plot lines will collapse, and the dimensional world will also collapse, so they simply cannot leave!
[Master, we can only continue to stay here as before. Although cultivators live longer than ordinary people, they are not gods and also experience birth, aging, sickness, and death. We will leave after the male protagonist dies naturally.]
"Okay." Jiang Zhiyi decided to live her life well.
...
One year later.
Xu Wenye has been traveling in the human world for a long time, searching for Jiang Zhiyi's whereabouts.
For some reason, when he woke up that day, his cultivation level had recovered considerably, and all his injuries had healed.
Perhaps some immortal saved him, or perhaps Siye saved him, but he couldn't verify it.
One night.
Xu Wenye stayed overnight in a mountain cave.
A nightmare quietly approached him.
Nightmare demons are adept at weaving dreams for people, using these dreams to kill and drain their cultivation and life force. Whether it's a pleasant dream or a nightmare, they give an incredibly realistic feeling, attacking the most vulnerable parts of their hearts.
In a dream.
"Zhizhi, you're back?!" Xu Wenye exclaimed with delight. He immediately spotted Jiang Zhiyi sitting on the osmanthus tree in Lingzhong Palace, looking around.
Jiang Zhiyi seemed quite unfamiliar with him and didn't dare to approach him.
"Grandmaster..." she called out, clearly unaware of why Xu Wenye knew her childhood nickname.
Xu Wenye frowned; it had been a long time since he had heard her call him that.
Soon, Xu Jiu brought over many files related to the sect competitions. Looking at the records in the files, Xu Wenye realized he had traveled back several years!
At this time, he and Jiang Zhiyi had not yet met.
By a stroke of luck, time was turned back, and Xu Wenye was overjoyed. This time, he would protect her well.
After dismissing the others, Xu Wenye led Jiang Zhiyi directly into the inner hall of Lingzhong Palace.
"Grandmaster, what are you doing?" Jiang Zhiyi looked bewildered and pulled his hand away.
"Do you like me?" Xu Wenye asked her.
Jiang Zhiyi looked troubled and did not answer.
"Do you like my cultivation level?" Xu Wenye asked again, condensing a ball of pure spiritual energy in his hand.
Jiang Zhiyi nodded: "Very impressive."
"Do you want to become as amazing as me?" he tempted her, like a cunning wolf catching a naive little rabbit.
"Yes!" Jiang Zhiyi's eyes sparkled with envy as she looked at him expectantly.
"I love you very much. If you agree to marry me, I will give you anything. Whether it's cultivation, rare treasures, or gold and silver, I will give you everything I have."
Jiang Zhiyi was still hesitating. Although the conditions were very tempting, she still needed to think it over carefully.
Xu Wenye wasn't in a hurry. He said softly, "I don't mean to force you. We can spend some time together first. If you're willing, we can get married."
After that, Xu Wenye clung to her every day, showing concern and taking meticulous care of her.
Except for certain occasions, the two were almost always together and never separated.
"Have you missed me?" Xu Wenye went down the mountain to handle some business today, and he hadn't seen her all day. He felt restless and anxious.
“We just met this morning…” Jiang Zhiyi was cut off midway through her sentence by him.
Jiang Zhiyi opened her clear eyes and protested silently: Xu Wenye is a bastard!
Seeing her dissatisfaction, Xu Wenye stopped what he was doing, hugged her tightly, buried his face in her neck, and said in a slightly aggrieved voice, "I missed you so much."
Jiang Zhiyi nudged him, but Xu Wenye stubbornly refused to leave. He seemed to remember something and said, "Let me tell you an interesting story from down the mountain."
Thus, Jiang Zhiyi heard a story about a wealthy businessman who was swindled out of all his wealth by a beautiful demon woman, and in a fit of rage, he tore the demon woman to pieces.
"That wealthy merchant's actions are truly gratifying. After spending so much time together, that lady has shown no affection whatsoever, only knowing how to swindle money. If she had stayed put, the wealthy merchant certainly wouldn't have made things difficult for her, and the two could have continued to live in harmony. She's really out of her mind."
"Zhizhi, what do you think?" He chuckled in her ear and kissed her cheek again.
Jiang Zhiyi didn't say anything, and looked incredibly obedient.
The two of them spent a long time being so affectionate.
Xu Wenye thought that the two of them could continue to live happily like this, but everything seemed to be slowly returning to its previous trajectory, and he couldn't control these things.
He was somewhat panicked and at a loss.
Jiang Zhiyi caused a lot of trouble. She began to frame others without restraint, not only Lingshan, but she even colluded with outsiders to do bad things.
But no matter what she did, he would handle it for her without asking a single question. He was afraid that if he questioned her, she would tell him to kill her, and he couldn't bear to face that scene.
So he killed many, many people, even innocent people, even unrelated people. He began to feel numb, and his Dao heart crumbled little by little.
Fortunately, they are getting married soon.
"You knew all along, didn't you?" On their wedding night, Jiang Zhiyi asked him this question.
Xu Wenye felt his body trembling; his whole body started shaking. He said in a shaky voice, "I don't know, I don't know!"
They are married now, they are husband and wife, and they will be together for all eternity.
Jiang Zhiyi smiled and said, "It's okay if you don't know. I can tell you that I did all those things. I'm bad, and I don't like you at all."
Xu Wenye froze, unsure how to react: "Zhizhi, you did nothing wrong. It was all their fault; they deserved to die. And I killed them. Whatever punishment there is, I should bear it. All the sins should be punished on my own body!"
"No, Xu Wenye, kill me! Kill me now!"
"You killed me once, have you forgotten?"
Xu Wenye couldn't control his sword. He hadn't given her the Three Follows Pill this time, he had already hidden the Broken Mind technique, and he had already married her, yet he still killed her with a single sword strike.
Xu Wenye saw her lying in a pool of blood, and he knelt on the ground, holding her body and weeping.
Why? Why!
Xu Wenye completely broke down!
But outside of dreams.
Seeing that the dream had taken effect, the nightmare demon tried to absorb all of Xu Wenye's cultivation.
