Chapter 9 Immortal Lord 009%
“…”
Qu Yaoyao had no idea that she was about to face a disaster.
She slept all day on Qingxi Immortal Venerable's birthday and woke up early the next morning, feeling refreshed and full of energy. She felt a little uncomfortable in the bedroom.
Seeing her staring out the window, Yunzhi suggested, "Why don't I take you around the sect?"
Ever since Qu Yaoyao lost her memory, she has become much quieter and hasn't been anywhere else except her bedroom.
"Is it okay?" Qu Yaoyao was a little excited, but also a little worried.
Yunzhi didn't know what she was worried about, so she smiled helplessly and said, "The entire Xingyang Sect belongs to you, you can go wherever you want."
Qu Yaoyao hesitated for a while, then thought that as long as she didn't leave the sect, she should be safe, so she agreed.
Despite the "yang" character in its name, the Xingyang Sect's yin and yang are imbalanced, with many female disciples and only a handful of males. The original owner, Qu Yaoyao, was extremely fond of beauty. She always wore striking clothing when visiting the sect's training grounds. Yunzhi was accustomed to dressing her, and this time was no exception.
It just so happened that Pinyi Pavilion had just delivered a batch of dresses. Yunzhi noticed that Qu Yaoyao liked plain clothes recently, so she picked out a tea-white butterfly dress.
Even though it is a plain color, the skirt is still complicated. Several butterflies of the same color are sewn on the shoulders and sleeves. Their soft wings are embroidered with light gold thread, and they move slightly in the wind, as if they are about to spread their wings and fly.
"Isn't it too plain?" Yunzhi matched her with a thin belt with hollow beads and tied a goose yellow butterfly pendant around her waist.
Just as she was about to change Qu Yaoyao's ruby ring, Qu Yaoyao covered her neck and stammered, "Don't wear it anymore. I think this is fine."
Yunzhi looked at her collar, put down the pendant and said, "I've always wanted to ask you, young lady, where did the pendant on your neck come from?"
Qu Yaoyao's food, clothing, housing and transportation, even her earrings, were all taken care of by Yunzhi herself. She didn't remember when she bought this piece of jewelry for her.
Qu Yaoyao lowered her head upon hearing this, only to see a gold pendant hanging around her neck. The pendant was in the shape of a teardrop, blood-red and lustrous, with a faint glow. Staring at it for too long would make one lose control of their thoughts.
Some extremely fragmented images flashed through her mind quickly. Qu Yaoyao shook her head and seemed to see a ball of fire vaguely.
"Girl?" Yunzhi called out.
Qu Yaoyao came back to her senses and pretended to be calm, "I don't remember."
When she first woke up from this body, she had this pendant hanging around her neck. She thought it was a personal item of the original owner, but it turned out not to be.
So where did this pendant come from?
Yunzhi didn't know, and Qu Yaoyao didn't know either. She just instinctively felt that the pendant was not an ordinary object, hiding some secrets she didn't know. So she didn't let Yunzhi take the pendant off, but instead wore it and hung the gem ring around her neck, which jingled.
"Okay." After combing Qu Yaoyao's hair into a hanging bun, Yunzhi dotted a flower ornament on her forehead.
Taking advantage of Qu Yaoyao's inattention, she inserted a few more tassel hairpins into her hair. Yunzhi said with satisfaction, "This servant will take the young lady out right away."
Qu Yaoyao had been tormented by Yunzhi for so long, just waiting for this moment.
Yunzhi opened the door before her and was about to call her daughter out when a little girl ran in from outside the courtyard, pointing outside in panic and saying, "Sister Yunzhi, something bad has happened. People from the main sect are here."
What are the people from the main sect doing here?
Yunzhi's heart skipped a beat. The main sect was the orthodox sect of the Wanmen Xianzong, and it could also be directly called the Wanmen Xianzong. The so-called six sects, four pavilions, and thirteen peaks all obeyed its orders and held the power of life and death on behalf of Xianxu.
"What are you panicking about?" Thinking that Xingyang Sect hadn't made any mistakes recently, Yunzhi quickly regained her composure and scolded, "Just treat the people from the main sect well when they come. There's nothing to panic about."
The little girl was about to cry, "This time is different."
If only one or two immortal envoys came from the main sect, it would be fine, but this time there were over a hundred, all of them carrying magical instruments and immortal swords, and occupying the four major sects of Xingyang Sect. The most important thing was -
"It was Immortal Lord Tianci who brought them here."
As soon as he finished speaking, Gu Tianci walked into Lanfang Garden with his sword in his arms. Behind him followed dozens of sword-wielding disciples, surrounding the courtyard.
Qu Yaoyao was taking off the pearl ornaments on her clothes in front of the mirror. When she heard the noise outside, she called out to Yunzhi, "What's going on outside?"
Puzzled, she walked to the door, still jumping for joy, "Can we go now?"
Yunzhi didn't answer.
Qu Yaoyao walked up to her, and when she saw the young man standing outside the door, the bright smile on her face froze.
Gu Tianci raised an eyebrow and said, "Look at Miss Qu's gorgeous attire. It seems she has guessed my intention."
"What do you mean?" Qu Yaoyao had no idea he would come.
Subconsciously hiding behind Yunzhi, she saw Gu Tianci grinning at her and bowing, saying, "I am following the order of the Immortal Venerable Qingxi to invite Miss Qu San to come to Wangxu for a chat."
"Miss Qu, please."
“…”
Qu Yaoyao was captured and taken to Wangxu.
The word "please" sounded nice, and Gu Tianci brought so many people with him that he didn't give her any chance to refuse. As soon as she said the word "no", the disciples blocking her courtyard drew their swords one after another, as if they would attack her if she dared to disobey his orders.
Qu Yaoyao had never seen such a scene before, so she was naturally scared.
The girl in the butterfly skirt with spread wings was now dejected and sandwiched between several disciples, like a butterfly with broken wings.
Yunzhi was worried and wanted to go along, but was dismissed by Gu Tianci with a single sentence, "The Immortal Venerable only invited Miss Qu."
There was no way out, Yunzhi could only watch Qu Yaoyao being taken away by Gu Tianci, and secretly stuffed the sachet left by Qu Yushu into her arms.
After entering Wangxu, Gu Tianci did not take Qu Yaoyao to see the Immortal Master Qingxi, but locked her up in the underground palace of Wangxu where prisoners were held.
The underground palace was cold and windowless. Each cell was double-barred, and no one had ever escaped. Gu Tianci chose a relatively clean cell, opened the door, and stepped aside to make way for Qu Yaoyao. He raised his chin and said, "Go in."
Qu Yaoyao stood there without moving.
Because there is a huge cage in the cell, with black iron pillars deep into the ground. In the center of the cage, there is a high-level circular magic array. The array will make people feel powerless and unable to use magic.
"Don't look at me." Facing Qu Yaoyao's misty eyes, Gu Tianci felt a little uncomfortable for a rare time.
He whispered, "I am only following orders."
Whose orders were they following? Of course, it was Immortal Qingxi.
This body itself had no cultivation. As soon as Qu Yaoyao stepped into the disc in the cage, the magic circle that was activated instantly made her collapse to the ground.
In her current condition, there was no need to tie her up with chains, but the rules of the underground palace could not be broken. After hesitating for a moment, Gu Tianci finally hung heavy chains on her feet.
It's quite bullying.
Qu Yaoyao also had chains on her wrists. She sat on the ground with a pale face and looked at Gu Tianci and asked, "Can you tell me why?"
"What did I do wrong? Why are you doing this to me?"
Gu Tianci felt more and more uncomfortable.
He hurriedly emerged from the cage, not daring to look at Qu Yaoyao's expression. He tried his best to act fierce and ferocious, "Don't you know what you've done?"
"Just wait, someone will come to interrogate you soon." They have found evidence that Qu Yaoyao killed Hua Song.
Qu Yaoyao was a little stunned when she heard this, "Huasong..."
How could Hua Song be killed by Qu Yaoyao? He was clearly killed by Qingxi Immortal Venerable!
Before Qu Yaoyao could figure out what was going on, someone came to interrogate her. It was Di Shu, the second disciple of the Immortal Master Qingxi. Di Shu was an orphan he picked up. He had a solitary and cold personality but a high level of cultivation. His methods were quite inspired by Xie Qingxun's teachings.
Before Di Shu went to the underground palace, Xie Qingxun specifically instructed: "The little girl is timid and can't help being frightened. If she refuses to confess, I will allow you to be more aggressive."
No matter what, Qu Yaoyao was still his nominal fiancée. Without his order, Di Shu really didn't dare to be too presumptuous.
With Qingxi's permission, Dishu followed the order and went to the underground palace, which really scared Qu Yaoyao.
Di Shuxi wore black. Although he had a handsome appearance, his cold expression made him look fierce. He also had two large sickles on his waist. When he saw Qu Yaoyao, his ferocious expression froze for a moment. He suddenly felt that the gap between rumors and reality was too big.
The person being held in front of him was not the arrogant and fierce young lady at all, but the little girl that his master had mentioned...
A little girl who looks soft and harmless.
"I have found evidence of Hua Song's murder in your room. What else do you have to say?"
Di Shu pulled out a large sickle and slashed it threateningly at her side, then shouted coldly, "If you don't confess, I'll chop off one of your arms!"
Qu Yaoyao curled up into a ball, scared but also stubborn. She sniffed and refused to admit it, "I didn't kill Hua Song."
"Even if you kill me, I won't admit it."
She was like this, just like when she first met the fallen Immortal Qingxi, her passion was so strong that she was willing to risk her life just to ask, "Are you the Immortal who will protect me?" Now that she has lost her most passionate love, her pride remains, and she will die with a clear conscience, not allowing others to slander her.
Being timid does not mean being cowardly and afraid of things.
Di Shu had a completely new understanding of Qu Yaoyao. The scythe brushed past her shoulder as it fell, and the sharp blade cut off a butterfly on her clothes.
Bang--
The sickle sank into the ground, but Qu Yaoyao did not let go.
Di Shu drew his sickle and this time lifted her chin with the tip of the knife. "You really don't want to plead guilty?"
"I don't admit it!" Qu Yaoyao's chin was cut by the tip of the knife, leaving a small scar.
As soon as the knife saw blood, Di Shu panicked. He was not sure how outrageous his master would allow him to be, so he could only withdraw his hand hastily.
"OK."
Di Shu said angrily, "Just wait for me."
This was the first time anyone had dared to resist his scythe. Di Shu's bloodlust was aroused, but he hadn't completely lost his mind. He went to the Immortal Venerable Qingxi, hoping to request another order to torture Qu Yaoyao.
"What kind of torture do you want to use on her?" Xie Qingxun raised his eyes and looked at him after hearing this.
Seeing that he didn't seem to care, Di Shu said boldly: "Flog her a hundred times first. If she still refuses to admit it, then..."
Xie Qingxun chuckled, "So what?"
As for the torture instruments, among the hundreds of them, there must be one that she is afraid of, which is guaranteed to make her confess her guilt.
"You don't have much time left." Xie Qingxun promised Yaowang Sect to give an explanation in three days, and tomorrow is the deadline.
Juanlan pressed his forehead, leaned back on the couch, closed his eyes and said, "No matter what method you use, you must make her confess tomorrow."
This is tacit consent to Di Shu's punishment.
Di Shu thought to himself that Qu Yaoyao really had no status in his master's heart.
Having achieved his goal, Di Shu returned to the underground palace and went to the torture chamber to select a few instruments of torture, intending to inflict some minor injuries on Qu Yaoyao. When he opened the cell, he found the cage brightly lit, with several candles suspended in mid-air.
Someone is coming.
Di Shu stood frozen in place, seeing his master, who should have been resting in his chambers, now appear in his cage. He knelt on the disc, gazing down at the sleeping 'little butterfly' for a long moment, motionless, his thoughts unseen.
Di Shu looked at his master and then at the torture instruments in his hands, slowly hiding them behind him.
The author has something to say: Xie Qingxun: The little girl is timid, just scare her, don’t use violence.
Di Shu: Okay, if you don’t want to do it with your hands, then let’s use a knife!
Let me explain the male protagonist's behavior of looking at the female protagonist's portrait~
Just because the male protagonist fell in love with Xiao Xuelian's face doesn't mean he fell in love with her. After all, he has a pretty ruthless personality, and superficial liking alone is not enough to make him show mercy. If he wants to make her heart flutter, he still needs to rely on various contacts and interactions.
But this does not prevent him from being an ls.p, who wouldn't want to take a second look at the cute little girl/狗头/
