"boom!"
It has been more than a month since Qin Wan returned to Phoenix Mountain with Ji Jue.
During this time, the sect leader sent her countless communication talismans, but she remained isolated outside the barrier of Phoenix Mountain.
More than a month later, the heavenly lightning struck, finally breaking the barrier surrounding Phoenix Mountain...
With just one bolt of lightning, the barrier around Phoenix Mountain shattered completely.
Inside the cultivation room, Qin Wan opened her eyes and met Ji Jue's dark eyes.
"Congratulations, Master, on your breakthrough and advancement to the Nascent Soul stage."
With a flick of her sleeve, Qin Wan created a protective barrier around him, enveloping him within it.
She summoned her natal spirit sword and flew to meet the raging lightning tribulation coming from mid-air.
"Boom boom boom!"
Qin Wan used her sword to catch the lightning tribulation, letting the lightning strike her fiercely.
"Master!"
Seeing Qin Wan use her body to withstand the lightning tribulation, Ji Jue's pupils contracted sharply, his eyes filled with disbelief.
Why did she do that?
"Body Tempering!"
"Has this girl gone mad?"
The sect leader appeared beside Ji Jue at some point, staring at the crazed Qin Wan in mid-air with a grim expression.
"Body tempering?" Ji Jue was taken aback.
"Apart from the Ancestor, no one in the cultivation world can rival her now. Why does she need to temper her body?" The sect leader stared at Ji Jue with a grim expression and asked.
Ji Jue opened her mouth, but for a moment she didn't know how to start speaking.
"What exactly happened in the Heavenly Demon Secret Realm?"
"The seal has not yet been completely broken, and the major demon kings and demon realm protectors are temporarily unable to enter the cultivation world. What is Qin girl's purpose in doing this?"
Clearly, the sect leader's suspicions still lie with the problems within the Heavenly Demon Realm.
Unexpectedly, Qin Wan's target of vigilance was none other than the rogue immortal patriarch of the Tianyun Sect.
"What happens if the lightning tribulation body tempering fails?" Ji Jue opened her mouth and asked subconsciously.
"Nothing will happen, only his dantian will be shattered, his seven meridians and eight extraordinary vessels will be destroyed, and he will be completely ruined."
Upon hearing the sect leader's words, Ji Jue's pupils trembled, and he stood frozen in place.
Dantian shattered...
The seven meridians and eight extraordinary vessels were destroyed in an instant...
Reduced to useless...
Is she crazy?
Ji Jue's favorability increased by 10, current favorability is 59.
Ji Jue remained stunned for a long time, regardless of Qin Wan's true purpose in doing so.
At that moment, his heart was filled with shock, confusion, and disbelief.
Why did she do that?
What makes him worthy of her doing this?
She had absolutely no reason to do this for a disciple who had only recently become her disciple and whose cultivation aptitude was only average!
Why?
Why is she so good to him?
Is it just out of sympathy?
Do you sympathize with his tragic experience?
Or was it out of guilt?
He felt that it was because of her that his family was destroyed and the entire Ji family was wiped out.
Can guilt and sympathy really make her go to such lengths?
A look of confusion appeared in Ji Jue's eyes.
"boom!"
"Boom!"
"Boom boom boom!"
In the sky, dark clouds gathered, lightning flashed and thunder roared, and countless blinding beams of light ripped through the sky, crashing down fiercely towards Qin Wan's location...
Her slender body trembled violently in mid-air before being swallowed up and submerged by the surging lightning.
The moment Qin Wan disappeared, Ji Jue could no longer control himself. Under the incredulous gaze of the sect leader, he quickly broke free from the barrier Qin Wan had set up and flew into the lightning tribulation...
"Master!"
In mid-air, amidst thousands of lightning bolts, Qin Wan stood there, her white clothes stained with blood, her body a mess.
Upon seeing him, Qin Wan frowned instinctively. "Leave!"
Ji Jue did not retreat but advanced, getting closer to her step by step.
"Master, I am confused. Could you please enlighten me?"
"You leave first. We can discuss any issues after the tribulation." With that, Qin Wan propped herself up and flicked her sleeve, sending a burst of spiritual energy at him.
Ji Jue neither dodged nor avoided her, but walked straight towards her.
"Why is Master so good to his disciple?"
Is it because of guilt?
"Or is it out of sympathy?"
"Or perhaps, both?"
"Ji Jue!!!"
Qin Wan frowned, staring at him with a serious expression and a cold look in her eyes.
"Master..."
"When I fell into demonic possession, I had a dream..."
"Master, would you like to know what kind of dream it was?"
Qin Wan stopped wasting words with him, directly throwing out the Immortal Binding Rope to restrain him, and then throwing the other end of the Immortal Binding Rope towards the place where the sect leader of Phoenix Mountain was standing.
Seeing this, Ji Jue remained calm and composed.
“Master, you are so good to your disciple. If anything were to happen to you, your disciple would never live on alone.”
After speaking, Ji Jue was forced to leave the area shrouded in thunderclouds under the control of the Immortal Binding Rope.
Qin Wan remained seated within the thunderclouds, letting countless bolts of lightning strike simultaneously...
Seeing Qin Wan covered in blood, the system felt a mix of emotions.
[Host, is it worth it?]
There are clearly other ways to win over Ji Jue.
But she chose the most painful and torturous way.
In a way that was extremely painful for both her and Ji Jue...
"An incestuous relationship between a master and his student."
"Furthermore, the hatred value created by the Ling family patriarch's alteration of the Three Lives Stone means that even if Ji Jue knows the original owner is innocent, the extermination of the entire Ji family is still inextricably linked to the original owner."
Even though Ji Jue is sober and knows he shouldn't involve the original owner, he will always have a knot in his heart.
"To resolve this knot in his heart, I must make certain sacrifices and choices that will move him."
As she spoke, Qin Wan calmly guided the surrounding lightning into her body, gradually forging her physical form.
Time slipped away, bit by bit...
The sect leader gripped the Immortal Binding Rope tightly, his gaze fixed on the lightning tribulation in mid-air, just like Ji Jue's.
"Crazy girl!"
"This girl is really crazy!!"
"There was a broad road she could have taken, but she insisted on finding her own way, putting herself in danger."
Thinking of this, the sect leader seemed to realize something, and suddenly turned his head, staring at Ji Jue with a furrowed brow.
Is it because of you?
Ji Jue was taken aback, the dazed look in her eyes faded slightly, and when she met the sect leader's complex and sharp eyes, Ji Jue lowered her eyes and remained silent.
"Does this girl know something?"
"The inner demon fears the tribulation of lightning the most..."
"Is she trying to help you overcome your inner demons through the tribulation of lightning?" When he asked this question, the sect leader's brows furrowed deeply, and a rare hint of displeasure appeared in his gaze as he stared at Ji Jue.
If it was because Ji Jue harmed Qin Wan...
Thinking of this, the sect leader felt a pang of regret.
If he had known that Ji Jue was such a troublesome person, he would never have allowed Qin Wan to take Ji Jue as her disciple during the personal disciple selection competition.
Absolutely not!!!
Under the sect leader's complex gaze, Ji Jue remained silent.
As the lightning tribulation dissipated, a slender figure fell from mid-air...
Ji Jue's pupils contracted sharply.
The next second, the sect leader discovered that the Immortal Binding Rope in his hand had slipped from his grasp...
In mid-air, the white figure and the blood-red figure intertwined, and a thick stench of blood spread around them...
After regaining his senses, the sect leader quickly flew over to meet him...
