"What have I done to anger the Sword Immortal so much?"
Seeing that Wan Kui was still pretending to be stupid, Zhong Changyuan swung his sword directly at him.
The sword strike, imbued with Zhong Changyuan's rage, shook the barrier of the Demon Realm.
Zhong Changyuan angrily said, "You dare to plant demonic energy in Pei Zhi's body, and you're still pretending to be innocent?"
Wan Kui's face stiffened. "What Pei Zhi said?"
Zhong Changyuan sneered: "What, you dare to do it but not to admit it?"
"Hahaha," Wan Kui laughed loudly, "Interesting, really interesting."
"Zhong Changyuan, your disciple is really interesting."
Wan Kui did not expect that Pei Zhi would return and then escape as described.
This girl pretended to be ruthless in front of him.
What? You'd die for your own life?
As soon as she got back, she confessed everything, completely deceiving him.
"Killing me now is useless. In a month, she will become a demon. At that time, the Sword Immortal will have one more demon disciple."
Wan Kui found this amusing, "How will the world view this then? I'm really looking forward to it."
"She has already lost her cultivation, so how could she become a demon?"
"What?" Wan Kui was truly shocked this time.
"She actually lost her cultivation? How is that possible?"
Wan Kui simply couldn't believe that Pei Zhi would lose her cultivation.
Without cultivation, wouldn't Pei Zhi be just like a useless person?
To go from a Golden Core cultivator to a cripple is worse than simply dying.
No wonder Zhong Changyuan was so furious.
"That girl, I'm truly impressed by her."
"Enough with the nonsense. If you don't come out today, I'll stay here and guard you. For every person from your Demon Realm who comes out, I will kill them. I'll keep killing until your Demon Realm is just a corner of the world."
Once Zhong Changyuan entered the Demon Realm, he was unable to use his full cultivation.
Even if Zhong Changyuan was furious with Wan Kui, he couldn't rush in and kill Wan Kui.
Wan Kui's expression stiffened. He knew that Zhong Changyuan meant what he said.
However, Wan Kui really couldn't bring himself to go out and fight Zhong Changyuan.
He can't beat Zhong Changyuan.
Wan Kui was no match for Zhong Changyuan, let alone Zhong Changyuan in a fit of rage.
Wan Kui changed the subject: "I planted demonic energy in your disciple and told her that if she killed you, I would remove it. Didn't she tell you?"
"What?" Now it was Zhong Changyuan's turn to be puzzled.
"It seems your apprentice is truly filial, keeping it a secret from you for fear of putting you in a difficult position." Wan Kui's words were genuinely not sarcastic.
But to Zhong Changyuan, it had a different meaning.
Zhong Changyuan remembered that he had asked Pei Zhi if Wan Kui had threatened her in any way, and Pei Zhi said no.
It turned out that Wan Kui's mission for Pei Zhi was to kill him.
Why didn't Pei Zhi tell him? Was she afraid of putting him in a difficult position?
For this reason, Pei Zhi was even willing to abandon her cultivation and become a cripple.
Wan Kui took out a pill from his pocket. "This is a health-preserving pill. Pei Zhi has lost her cultivation, so she must be physically weak. With this pill, she can be kept just like an ordinary person."
After losing their cultivation and suffering such great pain, they will be much weaker than ordinary people.
Wan Kui used magic to push the pill in front of Zhong Changyuan, saying, "Consider it my apology."
Zhong Changyuan didn't answer: "You think you can use this thing to settle this matter?"
Wan Kui shamelessly said, "Even if you kill all the demons outside the Demon Realm, I will not go out, and you can't do anything to me."
"You'd better go back and take care of your apprentice now. We'll have plenty of time in the future."
Wan Kui wasn't that stupid. Knowing that going out meant certain death, why would he still leave the Demon Realm?
Zhong Changyuan wants to kill those demons; if Zhong Changyuan likes to kill, then let him kill them.
Zhong Changyuan hesitated for a moment, but finally put away the pills. "The score between us isn't over."
Wan Kui looked in the direction where Zhong Changyuan had disappeared and laughed out loud, "Interesting, very interesting."
The Imperial Advisor wiped the sweat from his brow. "I don't understand. What's so interesting about it?"
"The master doesn't act like a master, and the disciple doesn't act like a disciple. Don't you think that's interesting?"
When will we see Zhong Changyuan so furious?
They went on a killing spree right outside the Demon Realm, slaughtering dozens of demons.
Wan Kui didn't believe this was just an ordinary master-disciple relationship.
Inside Wuwang Peak, Pei Zhi only wanted to curse her father, the heavens, and the earth.
Damn it, why didn't anyone tell her that losing cultivation would hurt so much?
She felt as if she was being torn apart; every bone in her body ached, and her body felt incredibly heavy.
When Gao Shijie saw that Pei Zhi was awake, he quickly asked, "Are you feeling better? Where does it hurt?"
Where does it hurt? Pei Zhi felt pain all over her body.
She was in so much pain that she didn't want to say a word.
Gao Shijie wiped away his tears. "It's all my fault. I didn't protect you."
"Waaaah, I'm sorry, Zhizhi, I'm so useless, it's all my fault."
Pei Zhi rolled her eyes. If Gao Shijie wants to cry, can't he go outside to cry? Is he wailing?
She's already in so much pain, does Gao Shijie still want to make noise in her ear?
Pei Zhi was too weak to shout, otherwise she would have definitely told Gao Shijie to get out.
"gun".
"Light? Light what? Tell me, what do you want?" Gao Shijie leaned closer, gesturing for Pei Zhi to be clearer.
"Cough cough cough." Pei Zhi was so angry that she kept coughing, and the cough made her whole body ache even more.
Gao Shijie quickly helped Pei Zhi up, and seeing that Pei Zhi had vomited another mouthful of blood, Gao Shijie cried out in alarm.
"Pei Zhi, don't scare me! You're not going to die, are you?"
"My God, what am I going to do? You've lost your cultivation now, so I can't heal you."
Just then, Zhong Changyuan returned with the pills.
On the way back, Zhong Changyuan had already checked the pills and found there was nothing wrong with them.
"I'll do it."
Zhong Changyuan reached out his hand, and Gao Shijie quickly handed Pei Zhi over to Zhong Changyuan.
Zhong Changyuan fed Pei Zhi the pills, and Pei Zhi immediately felt much better.
Gao Shijie asked worriedly, "Uncle-Master, will Pei Zhi be alright?"
Zhong Changyuan put his arm around Pei Zhi and said firmly, "With me here, I won't let anything happen to her."
"Oh..." Gao Shijie thought something was off, but Pei Zhi had fainted again, so he didn't think much of it.
"Uncle-Master, I'll stay here and watch over her. You can go and do your work."
Zhong Changyuan refused: "I don't need you, I'm fine here."
Gao Shijie thought for a moment and decided that since Zhong Changyuan's cultivation was profound, it would be better for him to guard Pei Zhi.
"Alright, I'll be going now. If you need anything, please feel free to call me anytime, Uncle-Master."
After Gao Shijie left, Zhong Changyuan looked at Pei Zhi in his arms and sighed deeply.
Pei Zhi is really, really stupid.
She actually kept it from him, just so as not to put him in a difficult position... she was willing to lose her cultivation and be injured like this.
Zhong Changyuan never imagined that he was so important to Pei Zhi.
He assumed that Pei Zhi's willingness to marry Sikong Ren meant she didn't care about him.
It turns out he had misunderstood.
In Pei Zhi's heart, she was willing to give up all her cultivation for him.
