Chapter 111 The Eldest Disciple of the Joyous Union Sect VS Grandmaster Guangfeng Jiyue 28
Two months later.
Xu Wenye has been staying here to recuperate for two whole months, but it seems to have had no effect whatsoever.
"Tuantuan, will the male lead get into trouble? I feel like he won't live much longer."
[Master, according to the plot, the male lead has a long lifespan ahead of him; he can't die yet. It would be best if we offered him some assistance.]
...
"Why are your injuries so severe?" Jiang Zhiyi asked in confusion. She felt that, given the current situation, Xu Wenye's injuries might never heal.
"I don't know either. I suppose it's because I damaged the foundation of my cultivation that day, which is why I haven't been able to recover for so long," Xu Wenye replied calmly.
"Why don't you go back to Lingshan? You won't recover here," Jiang Zhiyi sincerely suggested.
"Then you'll come back with me, or I won't leave." Xu Wenye touched her earlobe.
"I'm not going back." Jiang Zhiyi had learned to simply ignore his little actions. These past few days he had been constantly touching her inappropriately, but no matter how much she scolded him, he wouldn't listen.
Even at night, no matter how much she tried to guard against it, Xu Wenye always managed to sneak into her room, then brazenly climb into her bed and insist on having dual cultivation with her.
“I just did the same things you did to me before, what did I do wrong?” Xu Wenye would always ask her with an innocent look on his face.
Jiang Zhiyi felt it was necessary to have a serious talk with him and to stop things from going on like this.
"Sister!"
Helian Mu brought in a jar of brittle candy and immediately spotted the two people huddled together in the room.
"You sickly brat, stay away from my sister. Don't bring your illness to her!" Helian Mu said in a harsh tone, his anger rising.
These days, Xu Wenye looks like he's half-dead. At first, I thought he was faking it, but every time Du Wan examines him, she says he is indeed injured, and it's getting worse.
"It's my fault, I didn't think of that." Xu Wenye moved a little distance away. He coughed a few times, then clutched his chest, as if his illness had flared up again.
"I'm sorry for dragging you down." Xu Wenye was extremely dejected, his previous arrogance completely gone.
"..." Helian Mu felt that something was wrong.
"..." Jiang Zhiyi felt that he was really a bit pitiful.
evening.
Xu Wenye carefully wiped the Siye sword, his movements meticulous, the sharp blade gleaming with a cold light.
"Siye, come here." Jiang Zhiyi called it back. This was clearly her sword, but now, it seemed to be more obedient to him.
"Xu Wenye, how did you find my sword?" Jiang Zhiyi remembered that the old man took her sword away, and Siye did not return to her side on his own initiative. She thought that Siye had really been subdued by someone else.
"Is it strange that I found it because its name is Siye?" Xu Wenye asked.
“I miss the teachings I have received.” He uttered these words slowly again, as if he were recalling something.
"Stop talking!" Jiang Zhiyi felt a little embarrassed, and her face turned slightly red.
"Let's go back to Lingshan." Xu Wenye put his arm around her waist and pulled her into his arms.
Jiang Zhiyi tried to pull her hand away but couldn't break free. She said, "Xu Wenye, I..."
Xu Wenye covered her mouth and whispered coldly in her ear, "We can stay here, or we can go back to Lingshan together. If you insist on separating from me, then we'll both die together."
"In the beginning, you deceived me, both physically and emotionally. I gave you all my cultivation, my treasures, and my wealth. Of course, I'm willing to give them back to you as well, but you must stay by my side."
“If we die, these spirit beasts and those people from the Hehuan Sect will be buried with us. What do you think? That way, we won’t be alone on our journey to the underworld.”
Jiang Zhiyi was very dissatisfied, but dared not say anything. She bit Xu Wenye's neck hard.
Xu Wenye just chuckled silently.
A deep forest somewhere.
"What do you want?" Helian Mu's face was full of impatience and annoyance.
Xu Wenye's attitude had changed drastically; he was surprisingly gentle at this moment. He said slowly and deliberately, "I know you and your older sister have a very good relationship, and she has always loved you dearly. However, I hope you can think of her feelings..."
"What do you mean by that?" Helian Mu asked, frowning.
“You should be well aware of the fact that she and I practiced dual cultivation before. She did this not only to improve her cultivation level, but more importantly, to save her life. I have actually been using spiritual energy to nourish her body.”
“I’ve been separated from her for a year. Her body hasn’t received the nourishment of my spiritual power for a long time, and she’s developed a lot of problems. I’ve been using my spiritual power to help her recover for the past two months, but unfortunately, I’m also injured. As you know, my injuries are getting worse and worse, and I’m afraid I won’t be able to stay here for long.”
"The only thing I can do now is to take her back to Mount Ling and form a pact with her. I have profound spiritual power, and only by binding my life with hers can she survive."
Helian Mu said incredulously, "Her body is clearly fine!"
"She deliberately hid it from you because your cultivation level couldn't save her. Even if she told you, it would only add to her troubles, so she has been struggling alone all this time."
"I just hope she can live a good life and be happy, so it's not that I can't accept your existence at all. I was thinking before that even the three of us could be together."
Xu Wenye's tone was bitter, as if he were quite helpless.
Helian Mu was utterly shocked: "You..."
“But now, because of this symbiotic contract spell, I’m afraid the three of us can’t do this. If she is half-hearted, the contract spell will fail.”
“I hope you understand that true love means learning to let go. You are her most beloved younger brother, and that position will never change. You can still stay by her side as her younger brother.”
Helian Mu pondered his words carefully.
"Think it over carefully. If you've made up your mind, come find me. But regardless of whether you're willing to help me or not, I will find a way to bring her back to Lingshan. I won't just stand by and watch her get hurt." Xu Wenye finished speaking and was about to leave.
"Wait a minute." Helian Mu called out to him, looking lost and forlorn. "I'll help you."
Xu Wenye's face showed a hint of emotion.
He lowered his eyes to hide the triumphant look in them and said loudly, "Then thank you very much, Helian Mu."
My dearest brother forever.
