Chapter 555: Weird
In the past half month.
With the support of the ten major sects and various aristocratic families, Border City successfully established the first line of defense against the demons.
The demons didn't seem to have decided when to launch the official charge.
They only organized a few small-scale attacks, but they were all repelled by the border cities.
The spirit race is indeed weak, and the demon cultivators are indeed fierce and powerful.
But the current casualty situation is not bad.
Wangxi Valley arrived especially quickly. Yuehua had already sent a message to the Valley Master long before the demons took action. Jiang Rongrong was ordered to lead a team to station here, and all the medical practitioners who could move out of the valley had left.
With sufficient medical resources, there are few deaths.
This war started quietly, but in the past half month, the news had spread to all places in Tongzhou, except for some remote corners.
Ruan Wei and the others didn’t know.
The wilderness is isolated and remote, and Ruan Wei and others hide their identities and travel thousands of miles a day to search for treasures. They usually avoid people and rarely communicate with the barbarians, so naturally they don't know the situation in the outside world.
The direct descendant teams of Wanjian Sect, Xuantian Pavilion, and Wandan Valley were aware of the situation.
However, they had already entered the wilderness at that time, and detected the spiritual fluctuations of a large secret realm near the wilderness.
After careful consideration, the sect decided to let these younger generations enter the secret realm first to sweep up some treasures.
Those who can achieve the position of direct successor in a large sect with millions of people are not necessarily the most talented, but they are definitely people who obey the sect's orders.
Ji Huaan and others are all like this.
Chi Jin didn't know that the battle between spirits and demons would break out so early.
What surprised him even more was——
In this life, Yu Qunqing actually started to attack the other three emperors at this time.
This is different.
For Chi Jin, everything in this life was different from what he remembered from his previous life. He had not practiced the art of destiny, so he could not rely on divination to calculate the time and direction of events.
But in terms of time.
It has just been a few months since the Ten Directions Competition ended. According to the time calculations from the previous life, this is indeed the time when the Four Emperors of the Demon Clan joined forces to attack the Spirit Clan.
But this life is a few months faster.
What is this sign?
As Chi Jin listened, she couldn't help but pursed her lips in thought.
After Wu Yu heard this, she first glanced cautiously at Chao Jian's face before saying, "Then... Second Uncle, why don't you let Senior Sister be confined in the sect..."
Chao Jian glanced at her.
Wu Yu shut up.
Xiao Xuanyi gritted his teeth and stood up: "Second Uncle, I will definitely keep a close eye on Weiwei this time, otherwise-"
"Forget it."
Cui Yanjun said, "Second Brother, I heard everything the children said."
Chao Jian shook his head and said, "Mr. Yan, you didn't see what happened at that time. If you had been there, you would probably be even more angry than I am now."
There is only one person in the world who is as stubborn as Ruan Wei, who knows that fate has a backup plan but still faces challenges head-on like a fool.
He even said shamelessly that he just couldn't change or learn!
Chao Jian still feels angry when he thinks about it.
How could Ruan Wei dare to gamble on that possibility when Heaven hadn't made any promises or offered any help? How could she dare to gamble with her life?!
Chao Jian said, "She just deserves to be scolded."
Ruan Wei: “…”
Second Uncle, you can say whatever you want, but personal attacks are wrong.
Ruan Wei had a lot to say, but her mouth was sealed tightly, so she could only watch the battle.
"Second Brother."
Cui Yanjun frowned and argued, "If you ask me, Weiwei can't be blamed for this."
"Ten thousand years of accumulated resentment, and the demonic cultivators are watching covetously. If she doesn't draw the lightning to strike them, the spirit race will truly be plunged into internal and external troubles."
Chao Jian also frowned: "I didn't say she did anything wrong."
Chao Jian never thought that Ruan Wei was wrong to clear his resentment in this way. He just understood Ruan Wei's inner self better than Cui Yanjun. He guessed that Ruan Wei was going for the high-voltage red line of being half-dead and half-crippled.
If you are unlucky, you will die. If you are luckier, you will have no chance of becoming an immortal for the rest of your life.
What's the difference between this and committing suicide?
Ruan Wei's current ending is the result of the accumulated blessings she has accumulated over countless lifetimes.
Chao Jian didn't want Ruan Wei to develop the crazy habit of gambling his life at the slightest disagreement. Good fortune may come once, twice, three times... but no one can be sure from which time the good fortune will disappear.
What should Ruan Wei do when that time comes?
As a senior uncle, you always have to worry more about the safety of your own children.
Especially the audience.
Chao Jian had seen Ruan Wei's death too many times, and he didn't want to see it again.
No one can bear it.
He couldn't even bear the audience.
…
"Then why are you scolding her?!"
Cui Yanjun shouted.
"Besides, it's wrong, so what?"
"It's bad enough that you, as a senior uncle, don't care about the child, but what if her treatment is delayed?" Cui Yanjun glared at Chao Jian. "She's still young and naive, don't you understand that either?"
Cui Yanjun threw the needle away in a rage and looked up at Chao Jian: "Anyway, I can't cure it!"
"If you don't want to send someone there, fine, I'll go there myself!"
Cui Yanjun is a straightforward person.
She is indeed the one who dotes on children the most among the teachers of Penglai Immortal Sect. Sometimes Feng Wuya is even worse than her.
Cui Yanjun knew that Ruan Wei must have done something wrong to anger her senior brother who practiced love spells. She suppressed the trembling in her heart and pretended to be fine.
But Cui Yanjun knew better—
Ruan Wei is a good kid.
You know your own children well, and no matter how bad or wrong they are, they won’t get into any trouble.
This is the difference between Cui Yanjun and Chaojian.
Chao Jian has seen too many bad endings. He, Ruan Wei and Chi Jin are all reincarnated people who retain their memories. Ruan Wei is arrogant and Chi Jin is absurd, so how could Chao Jian be any better?
Perhaps even Chaojian himself didn't realize it.
He had begun to fear the departure of anyone around him.
Now.
Chao Jian was almost choked to death by Cui Yanjun. He was so angry that his eyes widened and he pointed at Cui Yanjun for a long time without being able to utter a complete sentence.
Cui Yanjun still stood there with his neck stiff, threatening: "You send it off or not? If not, I will!"
Meeting: "..."
Meeting: “…………”
His face was cold and frosty: "It's up to you."
After saying these two words, he walked away in anger.
Ruan Wei looked over in surprise.
The Taoist's robe fluttered in the wind. The gray robe was thin and cold, which made people feel a sense of loneliness for no reason.
Ruan Wei's heart suddenly tightened.
For the first time in her life, she began to reflect on her choices. Did she...really do something wrong?
Unexpectedly, Ruan Wei had just begun to reflect for a short while.
Then I saw——
He turned around and walked back.
Everyone was nervous, fearing that Chao Jian would suddenly lose his temper and regret it.
Then.
Chaojian: "...I'll go see you off."
His voice was still hard, and his face looked as stinky as a stone in a toilet.
Cui Yanjun had an expression as if he had expected this.
She teased, "Oh? Not so stubborn anymore?"
Just as Chao Jian understood the several nephews he had personally raised, Cui Yanjun certainly also understood the brothers he grew up with.
Chaojian always said she was stupid, but she could see Chaojian clearly.
Cui Yanjun knew very well that his second senior brother was never someone who would let go.
Jing Gan is like this, Ruan Wei is like this, and Penglai Immortal Sect is even more so.
There is another very important reason why Chao Jian can become the actual ruler of Penglai Immortal Sect - his sense of responsibility is too heavy.
Since Chao Jian said it was up to you, it meant that he had always intended to do so.
It's just about saving face.
Meeting: "..."
His face grew even colder, but his words were appropriate: "Didn't they say that the thunder tribulation is coming soon? You should stay still and prepare to overcome it."
Cui Yanjun: "Yes, yes, yes."
Chaojian: "...I'm talking to you because it's inconvenient for you to go out."
Cui Yanjun narrowed his eyes and smiled: "Ah, yes, yes, it's because of me, it's all because of me. Anyway, it's definitely not because you are worried about Weiwei, okay?"
Meeting: "..."
He gritted his teeth and said, "Yan Jun, shut up."
Cui Yanjun nodded obediently, "Okay."
The corners of Ruan Wei's mouth twitched.
She seemed to understand a little bit why Second Uncle had a relationship with Fairy Jinggan.
It’s really fun to tease the weirdos!!
