Chapter 472: Succubus (43)
"Go now. My time has come. This tribulation is the fate I've been waiting for. If I survive it, I'll be fortunate. If I don't, it's my destiny to leave. You should understand me."
"She asked me to save you, and I will save you."
"I never expected that you cultivate the Path of Ruthlessness, so why would you have personal feelings?"
Gu Yuan: "Senior, it's best if you refrain from speaking for now."
Xiaoyao Li: "..."
Alright, he shouldn't say too much about this young man's affairs. However, he didn't think this young man could help him in any way. Soon, countless bolts of lightning struck down, with Gu Yuan standing guard on the side.
Xiaoyao Li also faced the upcoming tribulation with seriousness.
He had been hiding his strength all along. In fact, he had already recovered his strength long ago. If he wanted to leave the Bliss Sect, he could leave at any time. However, he calculated that his fate was to fall into the Bliss Sect.
So he decided to stay.
No one knew the truth would be like this. Even if it were told, probably no one would believe that he could stay in the demon realm for hundreds of years for the sake of his destiny, being tormented every day.
What else could he be but a madman?
Wen Wan hid in a corner of the safe zone and watched this scene from afar. The cat in her arms was very restless. "Your master should be alright, right? He is Immortal Venerable Gu Yuan. He is about to ascend to immortality. This is just a preliminary encounter and a sense of what's to come. It should be okay, right?"
cat:"……"
Wen Wan felt there was something wrong with what she said, but she was worried. From one worry, which was only about Senior Xiaoyao Li, she now had another worry: she was starting to worry about Gu Yuan.
The protagonist's halo should be useful at this point, right? After all, he's a protagonist who's practically invincible; he shouldn't be struck by lightning, right? That's impossible; he's God's favorite son.
Just then, someone tapped her on the shoulder, and Wen Wan looked over instinctively, "Li Sha, what are you doing here?"
"I was worried about you, I've come to save you."
"How could you..."
It was obvious that she knew her identity. Wen Wan looked at Li Sha and said, "I didn't lie to you on purpose. I just hadn't figured out how to tell you yet."
Lisa: "There's no need to explain anything. I don't care if you're human or demon. Didn't you say that there are good people and bad people among humans, and there are good demons and bad demons as well? In my heart, you are my friend, my best friend. Even if you are a demon, you are a very, very good demon."
Wen Yan: "..."
I'm so touched, truly touched. The hostess is so kind; this is practically her little angel.
Wen Wan quickly gave Li Sha a pill to disguise her aura, making her look like a demon.
"The Immortal Venerable told us to wait for him at the border between the human and demon realms."
“But…” Wen Wan hesitated. Li Sha said, “Even if you stay here, you won’t be of much help and will only distract the Immortal Venerable. It would be better for you to leave with me so that the Immortal Venerable can help you better without any worries.”
Wen Wan: That makes sense.
"Then let's go."
So Wen Wan took Li Sha away from the Execution Platform and immediately prepared to head to the rendezvous point. The demons were in chaos and no one paid any attention to Wen Wan and Li Sha. After running for a while, the two were suddenly stopped.
Wen Wan looked at Qi Feng, "Qi Feng, please let me leave, please."
Qi Feng looked at Wen Wan and said, "Why did you leave, young master? This is your home."
Wen Wan: "You know what chiffon is, right? I have to leave."
Wen Wan looked at Qi Feng with pleading eyes, while Qi Feng's eyes flashed with struggle. "Young Master, have you thought this through? If you go to Mingyuan Sect and your identity is exposed one day, what will you face? Have you thought it through? Moreover, this is a betrayal of Jile Sect, and Master will not let you off the hook."
Wen Wan: "That's my business, I'll take responsibility. Qi Feng, let me leave."
After a few minutes, Qi Feng nodded. "I can let the young master leave, but I hope he can really think clearly about what he is doing."
"Thanks."
"Your subordinate will see the young master off."
Wen Wan: No need for that.
Wen Wan wanted to refuse, but Qi Feng's eyes clearly indicated that he didn't want her to refuse, so she could only let Qi Feng follow her. When they reached the border between the human and demon realms, Qi Feng stopped.
"Young Master, are you really leaving?"
Wen Wan nodded. "I don't like it here. I won't be happy staying here."
Qi Feng: "Then I wish the young master all the best and that he never comes back."
Gu Yuan left with Li Sha, while Qi Feng remained standing in the same spot, much to Wen Wan's extreme gratitude.
Wen Wan and Li Sha found a place to stay and waited for Gu Yuan's arrival. Both of them had made sufficient disguises, but they waited for three days.
The lightning continued to strike, and everyone felt that the world was about to end. Wen Wan also felt that the lightning was lasting a little too long. How could it strike for so long? Did it have to kill people?
However, Wen Wan never expected that before Gu Yuan and Xiao Yaoli arrived, Li Sha would run into trouble first.
She started to have a persistent fever. Wen Wan initially thought it was just a fever, so she gave her some medicine. However, it got worse and worse, clearly indicating that it wasn't just a fever, and her body was also undergoing changes.
Wen Wan belatedly realized that this wasn't a fever at all; it was Meizu's heat cycle.
Wasn't Lisa's demon bloodline sealed? How could she possibly experience the heat cycle of a succubus?
Wen Wan quickly gave her a pill, but who would have thought that the effect of the pill was very short-lived, and the symptoms started to recur after only an hour. This was obviously because she was half human and half demon, which was different from the constitution of ordinary demons, such as her pure demon.
"what to do?"
Wen Wan was very worried.
So they started looking for suitable medicine for Lisa, but before they could find any, someone came knocking on their door.
The system had informed her beforehand, so Wen Wan quickly took Li Sha and hid away. According to the system, once Li Sha's seal was gone, her father would sense it and come looking for her.
Wen Wan thought to herself, "Holy crap, I didn't expect this to work."
They were hiding and almost got discovered, but Gu Yuan arrived in time to make them retreat.
Seeing Gu Yuan arrive, clean and tidy, even his hair was in perfect condition, Wen Wan quickly asked, "Master, are you alright? Are you injured?"
Gu Yuan: "No."
"Then... what about Senior Xiaoyao? Where did he go? He should have successfully transcended his tribulation, right?"
Gu Yuan: "The tribulation is over, and he is still alive."
Wen Wan breathed a sigh of relief, "That's good, so he successfully ascended?"
Gu Yuan: "No."
"What do you mean? Wasn't the tribulation over?"
Then Wen Wan learned what had happened from Gu Yuan. The tribulation had indeed ended, and Xiao Yao Li had not died, but he had not ascended to immortality; instead, he had become a cripple.
Wen Wan's eyes widened. "Master, do you mean that Senior Xiaoyao has become an ordinary person? How is that possible?"
"Is he alright? Why didn't you take him with you? What if he couldn't handle it and committed suicide?"
For someone who cultivates immortality, this must be a devastating blow! It's undoubtedly a huge blow.
Gu Yuan: "This is his fate, and I cannot stop it."
Wen Yan: "..."
However, since Senior Xiaoyao is temporarily unharmed, although he has lost his cultivation, at least his life has been saved.
But there is something more important now, and that is Riza's condition.
Wen Wan subconsciously tugged at Gu Yuan's sleeve, "Master, there's something I need to tell you. Please don't be angry."
"Um?"
Wen Wan told Li Sha about it, "Li Sha is really not a bad person. She has never known her own background. Her constitution has always been sealed. She has never hurt anyone. Master, can you please not send her away?"
Gu Yuan: "..."
"You mean, I should take two demons back to Mingyuan Sect?"
Wen Wan chuckled twice, "Master, bringing one person is the same as bringing two, right? If it's really difficult for you, Master, we can leave. I will leave with Li Sha and won't appear in front of you."
"You're leaving? Between Mingyuan Sect and her, you're choosing her?"
Gu Yuan: "..."
This sounds a bit strange.
"Then Master, take us away?" Wen Wan asked.
Gu Yuan remained silent, while Wen Wan tried to guess his thoughts and what decision he would make.
"If you join the Mingyuan Sect, will the Sect Master of the Blissful Sect let it go?"
Wen Wan: That's obviously not the case.
"How long can you keep your identity a secret?"
"Does Master mean that Lisa and I still have to leave?"
Gu Yuan nodded. "You and Li Sha must leave. Otherwise, if others find out your identity, how will you face them? How will your master and fellow disciples deal with you?"
Wen Wan knew.
There was still a sliver of hope, but now there's absolutely no hope left.
"Alright, Master, I'll leave with Li Sha. I've caused trouble for you, Master Yuan Hui, and my fellow disciples during this time. I promise I won't cause any more trouble for you. But I beg you, Master, not to tell them the real reason for my departure. Just say I'm dead. I don't want them to know that my disciple and junior sister are actually demons."
Gu Yuan: "Where are you planning to go?"
Wen Wan smiled and said, "The world is so vast, there's always a place for Li Sha and me to stay."
The next second, Wen Wan felt a blur before her eyes, "Since you don't want to leave, then don't leave."
"But my identity..."
"Just change your appearance. From now on, you'll use this face. You'll no longer be the daughter of the Blissful Sect Master, nor Wen Wan. You'll change your identity and become a disciple I picked up on the road."
Wen Yan: "!!!"
From now on, your name will be... Chu Qi.
"The seventh day of the lunar month? Why is it called that?" Wen Wan asked curiously, only to be told that there was no other reason, it was simply because today happened to be the seventh day of the lunar month.
It has to be said, this is far too perfunctory.
"What about Lisa?"
"I will remove the seal in her body. She will go back with you."
Wen Wan nodded, "Thank you, Master. I will definitely work hard to cultivate and take care of you in your old age until your death."
Gu Yuan: "..."
Gu Yuan quickly reinforced the loosened seal on Li Sha. Gu Yuan's new seal was unbreakable by anyone whose strength was below Gu Yuan's, as long as Gu Yuan was safe. It was clearly a perfect solution. Afterwards, Wen Wan and Li Sha left with Gu Yuan. Wen Wan also changed her name and became Gu Yuan's new disciple, Chu Qi.
