Chapter 152 Lu Ziting expresses his disappointment with Su Ying'er and questions her.
Zhao Yaoguang laughed loudly, looking up at the sky.
She stared at Ye Li, "I know you won't let me go, but you think I'll betray him? Dream on!"
As soon as she finished speaking, her body stiffened, and she instantly stopped breathing.
He actually committed suicide.
"Yaoguang!"
As they were friends of many years, Lu Miaoyan rushed over and wept bitterly upon seeing her pass away.
Ye Li seemed to be deep in thought.
Zhao Yaoguang, like Qiu Zhiyuan, was clearly misled and worked for Ghost Face.
It seems that the Ghost Face's conspiracy is far more intricate and complex than she imagined, like an invisible giant net that has drawn in all forces, with hidden secrets at every turn.
What kind of game is he playing?
Lu Miaoyan suppressed her grief, wiped away her tears, and said, "May I take Yaoguang's body back with me?"
Ye Li looked at Chu Wei, her eyes questioning.
Chu Wei didn't speak; he simply watched her silently from beginning to end.
Ye Li could only make the decision on her own, "Okay, but before that, could we examine her body?"
Lu Miaoyan nodded repeatedly, "Okay, Senior Sister, please go ahead."
Ye Li made this request because of Chu Wei's earlier statement that "there is a problem with the spiritual herb."
Therefore, Zhao Yaoguang must have received some information and made a plan before they came in.
Ye Li searched around and found nothing suspicious except for some unused spiritual herbs.
Just before she was about to give up, a faint, elusive fragrance suddenly wafted past her nose.
The smell was incredibly familiar; she felt like she had smelled it somewhere before.
His gaze fell on the sachet at Zhao Yaoguang's waist.
She reached out and picked it up. "This sachet, is it something she always wore?"
Lu Miaoyan looked at it carefully and recalled, "I remember it was a few years ago, she embroidered it herself, and she embroidered two of them. I even asked her who they were for, but she didn't say."
two……
Thinking about Zhao Yaoguang's decisiveness when she committed suicide, it was all to protect the people behind her.
Is it a demon mask?
She felt it was impossible; vaguely, she sensed that she had missed some clue.
-
When they parted, Lu Miaoyan gave a deep bow.
"I cannot express my gratitude in words. Once Miaoyan returns to Taixu Sect and informs her master, she will personally visit to express her thanks."
Ye Li returned the greeting, "Take care on the road."
What a coincidence.
They had just left the Mirage Zone when they encountered Feng Jingxuan and his group.
They had just come out of the Golden Desert, accompanied by a spirit beast in a cage.
Pheasant feathers are dazzling, with primary feathers being a deep sapphire blue that shimmers with a metallic sheen, and long, ornate tail feathers that are interwoven with several colors, swaying gently with its movements like a flowing rainbow.
Upon seeing the spirit beast, Su Ying'er instantly became excited.
"Mirage Pheasant!"
Feng Jingxuan waved his folding fan. "That's right, it's the Mirage Pheasant."
It turns out that when they were searching for information about the Celestial Pivot Spirit Lord in the golden desert, they encountered this spirit beast and subdued it.
Su Ying'er was extremely excited. She thought it was hopeless, but she actually met him!
However, Lu Ziting hadn't woken up yet and couldn't ask for a spirit beast on her behalf, so she could only keep quiet about it for the time being.
Seeing that they were all injured or maimed, Feng Jingxuan asked in surprise, "What happened to you?"
Chu Wei seemed unwilling to say more, only leaving out the words, "We'll talk about it when we get back."
-
Back at the inn, the elder frowned deeply upon hearing about their ordeal in the mirage of the desert.
"I never imagined that such a place was hidden in the Golden Sands Illusionary Realm. No wonder people often go missing. If you hadn't destroyed it, many more people would probably have suffered. Thank you for your hard work."
Su Ying'er said sweetly, "It doesn't matter how many injuries we suffer, as long as we don't bring shame to the Tianmen Sect."
The Grand Elder nodded, a hint of satisfaction on his face. "The younger generation is truly formidable."
"It's all thanks to the Elder's excellent teaching."
Just as Su Ying'er was about to seize the opportunity to claim credit, the Grand Elder had already turned his attention to Ye Li.
"Jiang Li, I heard you put in a lot of effort this time. Is there anything you want?"
Su Ying'er's smile froze on her face, clearly feeling indignant that the Grand Elder had singled out Ye Li.
But since no one spoke up for her at that moment, she could only keep quiet about it.
Ye Li did indeed want something, so she cupped her hands in greeting, "I want the Mirage Fox..."
The Grand Elder waved his hand and said, "Alright, here you go."
Ye Li: ...hair.
Although it would make it easier for her to pluck the fur, she already has Big Black. With Big Black's temper, if it knew she had another spirit beast, it would be so angry that it would die.
"Actually, what I meant was..."
Ye Li was about to refuse when Su Ying'er interrupted her.
"Absolutely not!"
Her shrill voice instantly drew the attention of everyone in the room.
Even Feng Jingxuan, who was fanning himself, stopped.
The Grand Elder frowned. "Why not?"
Normally, Su Ying'er might have been able to tolerate it, but seeing that something that belonged to her was about to be taken away by "Jiang Li", she simply couldn't stand it anymore.
With tears welling up in her eyes, she knelt down and said, "Ying'er feels that this spirit beast was living peacefully in the golden desert, but we captured it. How unfair is that to it? Perhaps it has family and friends just like us. We are being too cruel."
As she spoke, tears streamed down her face; she cried so pitifully, her face streaked with tears.
Ye Li originally didn't want the spirit beast, but seeing that Su Ying'er was putting all her effort into taking it back, she didn't want to let her have her way.
She glanced at Su Ying'er and said, "I remember, last time when we went to Moon White Lake, Junior Sister Ying'er asked everyone to help you catch spirit beasts. Even this time in the Sand Sea Mirage, you went to look for spirit beasts with Senior Brother Lu many times. How come you said the spirit beasts were pitiful after you found them? Are the spirit beasts pitiful, or are they only not pitiful when they are in your hands?"
"I……"
Su Ying'er was speechless.
"alright!"
The First Elder was annoyed by Su Ying'er's crying and whining. He simply couldn't understand why Master Qingyu would accept such a lowly disciple. He waved his hand impatiently, "This is none of your business. You may leave."
Su Ying'er was unwilling, but since the Grand Elder had spoken, she had no choice but to go out.
Fortunately, as soon as she stepped outside, she heard from a disciple that Lu Ziting had woken up.
Su Ying'er was overjoyed. Her senior brother had woken up, and he would definitely help her get the spirit beast back!
She hurried back to her room.
Lu Ziting was leaning against the headboard, slightly out of breath, when she exclaimed, "Senior Brother!"
As she spoke, she threw herself onto his lap, looked up at him with a face full of heartache, and said, "Senior Brother, you're finally awake. Are you feeling alright anywhere? Senior Brother, you don't know, when you were unconscious, Ying'er couldn't eat or sleep. If anything happened to you, Ying'er would have gone with you."
Her beautiful face was full of concern, and that fragile voice, tinged with tears, always softened Lu Ziting's heart whenever he heard it.
But at this moment, he merely tugged at his lips and said, "Really?"
Su Ying'er had never seen Lu Ziting like this before. Her sobbing stopped. "What?"
Lu Ziting said, enunciating each word clearly, "You said that if I died, you would come with me, is that true?"
