Chapter 44 Spell-Making Prodigy Girl VS. The Demon Lord Who Shares Her Bed 17
"It hurts a little," she replied softly.
"Then I'll be gentler."
As he spoke, his movements became even more careful. He would gently blow on her wound from time to time to ease her discomfort.
After finally finishing applying the medicine, he got up and went to the wardrobe, which was full of dresses she had brought.
Which one do you want to wear?
"Anything is fine, just pick one."
Seemingly surprised by his behavior today, Jiang Zhiyi was a little taken aback and quickly replied.
He carefully arranged her inner garments layer by layer, then dressed her in a peach-colored brocade outer robe, and slowly helped her fasten her belt.
She let him do as he pleased, being very obedient.
He had already removed the hairpin from his head, and his thick, black hair was draped down his back.
He then fetched some clean water and used a damp cloth to wipe the dirt off her face.
After tidying up, he looked much better and was no longer in a disheveled state.
He looked at her closely and asked, "Is there anything else that's bothering you?"
Jiang Zhiyi shook her head.
He reached out and pulled her into his arms: "You can't run around like that anymore, okay?"
"I see."
"Why did you go there today?" Qi Suihuan asked, puzzled.
If he hadn't arrived in time, he couldn't imagine what would have happened. With her strength, she was no match for Lingzhen; one move would have killed her.
She's always so impulsive, always coming up with something new every day.
Every time I leave his sight, a whole bunch of trouble happens.
But something like this absolutely cannot happen again. When he saw her message, he was frantic, his only thought being to find her quickly and prevent anything from happening to her.
He was both angry and anxious the whole way, thinking that once he found her, he would definitely teach her a lesson.
But seeing her pitiful and disheveled appearance, his heart softened again. He completely forgot about scolding her and didn't even dare to speak loudly, for fear of scaring her.
"I went there by chance today. I heard some disciples from various sects say that there was an evil spirit being suppressed under the Nianfo Cliff, so I wanted to go and see."
Jiang Zhiyi thought he was trying to trick her into revealing information, so she quickly said these things.
She certainly couldn't tell him that she had read the plot and was planning to go to Nianfo Cliff to find incriminating evidence against Lingzhen.
"I'm scared."
Not wanting him to continue asking questions, Jiang Zhiyi steered the conversation back to herself.
Qi Suihuan patted her head and comforted her, "It's alright now."
"I'm still scared, it's too terrifying." Her lips trembled, and tears welled up in her eyes.
Qi Suihuan lifted her head and looked into her reddened eyes. He seemed to be breathing unsteadily.
Suddenly, he turned her head and kissed her fiercely, like a violent storm.
This was the first time he had been so proactive, and she had been forced to endure such a kiss.
He put one arm around her waist and held her head with the other, not letting her move away even a little.
The movements were very forceful... but also quite clumsy.
She didn't know how long he had kissed her before he finally let go of her. Jiang Zhiyi felt her lips and tongue were going numb.
"Zhizhi," he called her by her nickname.
Jiang Zhiyi looked at him, her face full of confusion.
...
The main hall of the immortal sect.
Sect Leader Yuan Qi stood in the center of the main hall, with a person kneeling below him, none other than Ling Zhen.
He had returned to normal and was no longer in the same ugly state as when he was possessed by evil.
Today, when he was cultivating by consuming blood, he accidentally lost control and his soul was corrupted by evil energy, which is why he became like that.
Now that the truth has been revealed, there is no chance for him to turn things around.
Yuan Qi looked at him, a hint of heartache flashing in his eyes. The sect's powerful cultivator, his proud disciple, had now fallen to this state.
"Your sins are grave, and you have committed a terrible mistake. Now the Immortal Sect must give an explanation to the entire world and to the souls in your hands!"
"Ling Zhen knows his sins."
Now all he wants is to die.
"Master!" Ruan Lingyue rushed in from outside the door.
Lingzhen ignored her and refused to look at her.
"Sect Leader, please spare Master's life!"
Ruan Lingyue knew that Lingzhen had committed a terrible mistake, but she still couldn't bear to watch him die.
"Take her away," Yun Yin said impatiently from the side.
"Junior Sister Ruan, let's go."
"Master! No!" Ruan Lingyue cried her heart out, her whole body trembling.
Su Xi stepped forward, pulled her away, forcibly knocked her unconscious, and then took her out of the main hall.
Yuan Qi raised his hand, and a long sword pierced Ling Zhen's heart. Ling Zhen knelt straight on the ground, her head drooping, and she quickly lost her breath.
"Yunyin, from now on you will take over as the sect leader of the Xiaoyao Sect. This incident has greatly affected the disciples, so you must comfort them and prevent them from developing inner demons."
"yes."
...
Half a month later.
"It's her! Her master killed so many people!"
"I never expected Lingzhen to be such a wicked person. He has completely disgraced the immortal sect and made us all the laughingstock of the world."
"She is also a menace. Her master used evil magic to harm people, and she was cruel and harmed her fellow disciples."
These days, whenever Ruan Lingyue goes out, she is met with insults and abuse everywhere she goes.
She was like a rat crossing the street.
The entire Xiaoyao Sect, and even the entire immortal sect, avoided her like the plague.
The more highly they used to praise Lingzhen Immortal, the more unpleasant the insults they now hurl at him.
With Lingzhen dead, Ruan Lingyue, as his disciple, naturally became the target of everyone's anger.
Her existence is a pillar of shame for the Free and Unfettered Sect. Just seeing her reminds one of Lingzhen's crimes.
"What are you doing? Get out of here!"
Suxi came over and chased everyone away.
"You're an idiot too. She blinded you, and you still protect her like this."
"Leave them alone; she'll get him killed sooner or later. We should stay away from this menace."
Everyone dispersed.
"Junior Sister Ruan, don't listen to their nonsense. None of this is your fault," Su Xi said anxiously, trying to comfort her.
"I know, thank you for your kindness."
Ruan Lingyue didn't have the energy to say anything to him at the moment, so she pushed him away and tried to leave.
"Junior sister!" Su Xi stopped her.
"Senior Brother Suxi, I know you mean well. But given the current situation, I don't want to say anything more. Can you leave me alone for a while?"
Su Xi hesitated for a moment, then had no choice but to let her leave.
This scene was witnessed by Jiang Zhiyi and Qi Suihuan, who were out for a walk.
They were standing by the fence not far from the courtyard, where the view was clear from a higher vantage point.
"Let's go somewhere else, it's a bit noisy here." Jiang Zhiyi got up and wanted to leave.
Qi Suihuan was pondering something when he spoke to her.
"I want to take Ruan Lingyue back to the Demon Realm."
