The Left Protector asked, "Why would Zhong Changyuan use such force against the Demon Lord?"
Previously, Zhong Changyuan had no dealings with their demon realm, but they had never been enemies either.
The cultivation world has always liked to speak sanctimoniously about valuing harmony.
It makes no sense that they would provoke the demon realm now.
The Right Protector said bitterly, "Isn't it because he saw that the Demon Lord's magic power was depleted, and deliberately seized this opportunity? It's really despicable."
"My relationship with him is a private matter and has nothing to do with the cultivation world or the demon world."
The Right Protector said angrily, "How can it be unrelated? If something happens to you, our demon realm will be leaderless, and we'll be at the mercy of the cultivation world!"
Sikong Ren waved his hand, too lazy to speak.
"You all go out first, let me have some peace and quiet."
Before the Right Protector could say anything more, he was dragged away by the Left Protector.
Sikong Ren stretched out his hand, and the secret technique Wan Kui had given him appeared in his palm.
He knew it was a trap, but he had no choice but to fall for it.
He was unwilling to accept it.
Today, he ran away like a coward.
He needs to force the woman he loves to threaten suicide in order to save her life.
This would be even more painful for Sikong Ren than simply killing him.
Sikong Ren was a demon lord, revered by thousands since birth. He had never been so humiliated.
Therefore, knowing that Wan Kui had something to ask for, Sikong Ren had no choice.
He had to take Pei Zhi back from Zhong Changyuan; he had to survive in order to protect Pei Zhi.
Although Wuwang Peak was smashed to pieces, it was almost completely repaired in just one night.
Zhong Changyuan set up a barrier around Wuwang Peak. Outsiders who approach Wuwang Peak will be repelled by the barrier.
When Pei Tianming heard the news, he smashed a teacup and cursed under his breath, but there was nothing else he could do.
It was a week later when Pei Zhi discovered that Wuwang Peak had a barrier.
Having lost his cultivation, Pei Zhi was reluctant to leave Wuwang Peak.
She kept track of the time; Gao Shijie hadn't come to see her for several days.
Pei Zhi can't use the communication talisman anymore, so she plans to go find Gao Shijie.
I want Gao Shijie to ask about Sikong Ren's current situation.
As a result, Pei Zhicai discovered that she could not leave Wuwang Peak.
Then, Pei Zhi realized why Gao Shijie hadn't come up to her.
It's not that I don't have time, it's that Gao Shijie can't come.
So, she was imprisoned?
Pei Zhi felt somewhat helpless; she had also experienced the part where the female protagonist in a tragic novel was imprisoned.
Pei Zhi didn't make a big fuss or cry and say that she wanted to go out.
Zhong Changyuan arrived on time with a food box. It seems that Zhong Changyuan has recently become a food blogger.
She prepared different delicious meals for Pei Zhi every day, and her cooking skills have become increasingly better.
Pei Zhi felt like she had gained weight.
"Try the Dongpo pork recipe you learned today and see how it tastes."
Pei Zhi took the chopsticks, tasted a bite, and then gave a thumbs-up in praise.
After they had almost finished eating, Pei Zhi finally spoke up, "I was just about to go out when I discovered that Wuwang Peak has a barrier."
Zhong Changyuan served Pei Zhi a bowl of soup. "What do you want to do outside?"
Pei Zhi rubbed her stomach. "I've been eating too well lately. I've lost my cultivation, and the body-shaping pills aren't working. My clothes are a bit tight now."
Zhong Changyuan glanced at it, though he couldn't see where the clothes were too tight.
"Then after we finish eating, I'll take you down the mountain."
Pei Zhi raised her voice slightly: "You're going too?"
Zhong Changyuan raised an eyebrow slightly. "What, can't I go?"
Pei Zhi chuckled. "What I meant was, I was afraid that you, Master, wouldn't be used to the liveliness down the mountain."
"I don't like going down the mountain just because it's unnecessary. But if I go with you, I'd probably be quite interested."
Pei Zhi took the soup and took a sip in a sullen voice.
Pei Zhi dared not refuse Zhong Changyuan, lest she lose even the chance to leave Wuwang Peak.
After the meal, Pei Zhi tidied herself up a bit and then followed Zhong Changyuan out of Wuwang Peak.
The two of them swaggered out of Wuwang Peak, and Pei Tianming, having received news of his disciple, immediately rushed over.
Zhong Changyuan reached out his hand to Pei Zhi.
Pei Zhi looked at Zhong Changyuan, puzzled.
“I remember, you and Sikong Ren used to hold hands like this.”
Pei Zhi's pupils suddenly dilated in shock. Has Zhong Changyuan gone mad?
They're not on Wuwang Peak now; it's just the two of them.
This is at the Tianyuan Sect, and how many disciples are watching?
If she were to hold Zhong Changyuan's hand, their fingers intertwined, the news would spread throughout the entire cultivation world in no time.
“Master, we…” Pei Zhi pursed her lips, pondering how to say it in a way that would make Zhong Changyuan accept it.
“Within Wuwang Peak, whatever you say goes. Outside, we are still master and disciple.”
Just as Zhong Changyuan was about to say something, Pei Tianming appeared, followed by Gao Fengzhu and Gao Shijie.
Zhong Changyuan frowned slightly, clearly somewhat unhappy.
"Changyuan, I'd like to have a quick chat with Zhizhi. Is that alright?"
Zhong Changyuan grabbed Pei Zhi's wrist, and then, right in front of Pei Tianming, he directly intertwined his fingers with Pei Zhi's.
"If you have anything to say, just tell me."
Pei Tianming's eyes widened, clearly not expecting Zhong Changyuan to be so bold.
Pei Tianming quickly waved his hand, and Gao Fengzhu, Gao Shijie, and others also gathered around.
Pei Tianming shouted sternly, "What are you doing? Let go right now!"
Pei Tianming couldn't control what Zhong Changyuan and Pei Zhi were doing on Wuwang Peak, so he pretended to be oblivious.
Now things are really messed up. Even after leaving Wuwang Peak, Zhong Changyuan still doesn't know how to restrain himself. This won't do.
Zhong Changyuan asked calmly, "I'm planning to take her down the mountain to buy some clothes. Does the sect leader want to come along?"
Pei Tianming stood in front of him, not giving an inch: "Within Wuwang Peak, I can pretend I don't know anything, but once we leave Wuwang Peak, you will be master and disciple."
This was Pei Tianming's bottom line; Zhong Changyuan was truly audacious.
"Why hide like this?" Zhong Changyuan lowered his eyes and sneered. "What's there to hide?"
Pei Tianming took a deep breath, "You two are master and disciple. If others see you holding hands, they'll drown you in spit!!!"
"Let them talk. Anyone who has the guts can come up to me and say it."
Zhong Changyuan's unyielding attitude infuriated Pei Tianming.
Pei Tianming yelled at Pei Zhi, "Say something!"
Pei Zhi was stunned by the shout. Before she could say anything, Zhong Changyuan pulled her behind him.
"If the sect leader has something to say, he can just say it to me. It has nothing to do with her."
Pei Tianming was somewhat taken aback. "She's my daughter, can't I even say a few words to her?"
Absurd, absolutely absurd.
Pei Tianming rebuked, "As your father or the head of the Tianyuan Sect, I can't control what you do behind the scenes, but I won't allow it in public."
"In that case, please, Sect Leader, draw your sword."
