Chapter 196 He was seen naked
Ye Li was still somewhat uneasy because of Chu Wei's words.
No sooner had Xie Sixing stepped out of the empty mountain gate than he mimicked Chu Wei's words, exclaiming in an exaggerated tone, "Master~ I'll do anything you want~"
Ye Li got goosebumps from his tone and rubbed her arms a couple of times before saying, "Do you think he's noticed something?"
"Perhaps~"
As Xie Sixing spoke, he counted on his fingers, “My fiancé senior brother who started a relationship and then abandoned me, my unlucky master who was my lover in my past life, my junior brother who has been secretly in love with me for many years, and now there’s another disciple from my past life. Little Taoist priest, your love life is really getting better and better.”
Ye Li had gotten used to his occasional nonsensical ramblings and stopped paying attention to him.
Today, Ye Li finally dealt with Su Ying'er. Back at her residence, she planned to take a bath to relax her tense nerves from the past few days.
From now on, she no longer needs to focus her energy on the Lotus Sect, and can concentrate on finding out the truth and avenging herself and her disciples.
Ye Li now has a water spirit root, making bathing very convenient for her.
Just as she entered the bathtub and closed her eyes to rest, Xie Sixing's annoying voice rang in her ears again, "Daoist Master, did I forget to tell you? After forming a bond, I can sense your five senses."
Ye Li paused in wiping her arms. "Wh-what-does-it-means?"
"It means -"
Xie Sixing drawled, his tone laced with a mocking laugh, "I can see it, and I can touch it."
"Thank you, Sixing!!!"
Xie Sixing smiled without a trace of remorse, "Who told you not to ask me?"
Why didn't you tell me?!
"Didn't I already tell you?"
"..."
-
For the next month, apart from the occasional arguments with Xie Sixing, Ye Li's life was peaceful and uneventful.
She visited Abi several times; Abi's condition was deteriorating, but she clung to life, clearly waiting for Elder Ge to bring Cao Yong'an back.
Ye Li would send her some spiritual energy every time she went there. Although Cao Yong'an was not coming back, she hoped that Abi could survive.
Besides this, she cultivated day and night, hoping to reach the Foundation Establishment stage before going to Twilight Cloud Island, so as not to be too restricted at that time.
Before setting off, Ye Li broke through to the late stage of Qi Refining. Although it was a little worse than she had expected, at least she could use more spiritual power in front of others.
...
The day before the trip, Ye Li once again went to Su Ying'er's room in her soul form.
Thinking of trying my luck again, I wondered if I could use the Shadow Token to open the entrance here.
But after searching around, she found nothing, and even the chilling feeling behind the wall had vanished without a trace.
Ye Li looked at the wall thoughtfully; it seemed that the entrance here had been closed.
That masked man must have known that Su Ying'er had been imprisoned in the Discipline Hall and had abandoned her as a pawn.
So, he was at the Tianmen Sect, watching her every move from a place she couldn't see.
That feeling of being spied on came over me again.
Ye Li's expression was solemn. To reclaim her physical body, she would need to find another opportunity to enter the Dark Realm.
The Lotus Sect members were also searching for Ye Li's body.
Ever since Su Ying'er, in a fit of rage, publicly exposed their indifference to Ye Li's death, rumors have been rampant throughout the sect.
Everyone says that Ye Li has worked hard for more than ten years, but she is no match for Su Ying'er, who has a bad character.
Her fellow disciples refused to help her in her time of need, her fiancé fell in love with someone else, and even her master, who had always been devoted to her, treated her as nothing.
Not only that, the fact that Ye Li had sent out a help talisman before her death was also spread, which sparked a lot of gossip.
When Ye Li came out of Su Ying'er's courtyard, several disciples of the Lotus Sect who were responsible for sweeping were huddled together and whispering.
"Good heavens, seven help talismans, and not a single one of them came to her rescue. Forget about her senior sister whom she sees every day, she should at least ask a fellow disciple she doesn't know well."
"Who can argue with that? Senior Sister Ye Li's body is barely cold, and Lu Ziting has already hooked up with Su Ying'er. He keeps calling himself a gentleman, but he's just a lecherous devil."
"Senior Sister Ye Li has been dead for half a year, and no one has gone to look for her. It's truly disheartening."
"That's right. In the years I've been cleaning and sweeping the Lotus Gate, I've seen it all clearly. Senior Sister Ye Li has been running the Lotus Gate from top to bottom, but what about them? They're all ungrateful and heartless."
"Sh-"
The older disciple pointed to the lotus pavilion where candles were still burning, "Keep your voice down, or your senior brothers will hear you."
"..."
At the pavilion.
Lu Ziting, who had already overheard their discussion, turned ashen-faced. "These people who twist the truth, I will report to my master tomorrow and expel them from the Tianmen Sect!"
"They weren't wrong."
Sitting at the table, Wen Yao slowly looked at him and said, "You really have wronged A-Li."
Lu Ziting was furious. "It's not your place to stand up for A-Li! Don't forget, I am A-Li's husband now!"
"Oh."
Wen Yao gave a mocking smile, "Do you think Ah Li would still be willing to marry you if she were still alive?"
"you!"
Seeing the atmosphere between the two growing increasingly tense, Mo Hannian, who had remained silent all along, angrily swept the teacups and teapot off the table. "Enough! Instead of wasting time on this, we should be thinking about how to find Senior Sister's body and give her a proper burial as soon as possible! What's the point of arguing like this!"
After saying that, he strode away.
He walked very fast.
When they reached a dark place where they couldn't see him, Mo Hannian leaned against a tree, coughing so hard he couldn't straighten up.
He actually coughed up a mouthful of blood.
He didn't wipe it away, letting the blood flow down his lips.
"Senior sister, I will return it to you, I will return everything to you."
Ye Li frowned as she looked at his stubborn and obstinate appearance. Mo Hannian looked even worse than when he was poisoned by the Gu.
But she didn't care about any of that at the moment.
Seeing that it was getting late, she went back to pack her luggage for her trip to Twilight Cloud Island the next day.
-
early morning.
The disciples who were going to the Twilight Cloud Island for the trial were all ready to go.
All the attendees this time were inner disciples, making Ye Li stand out as the only outer disciple.
Fortunately, her cultivation level was not low, so everyone just regarded this as her training before entering the inner sect.
With everyone present, they were just waiting for Chu Wei, the team leader, to arrive so they could set off.
Strangely, Chu Wei, who was always punctual, was almost half an hour late.
Even Mu Chen, who went to call for help, never returned.
Just as Mu Xi was about to go and call for help, the person finally arrived.
Everyone assumed it was Chu Wei.
However, when that splash of red caught her eye, Ye Li's gaze darkened.
It wasn't Chu Wei who arrived, but Feng Jingxuan.
Upon seeing him, one of the female disciples exclaimed with delight, "It's Sect Master Feng!"
Feng Jingxuan arrived gracefully, waving a folding fan and smiling charmingly, "I feel so bad for making such a beautiful girl wait for me. Are you tired?"
The female disciple was completely captivated and shook her head repeatedly, saying, "Not tired at all!"
Just as Feng Jingxuan was about to say something, a cold voice rang out from the crowd.
"Wasn't Sect Leader Chu supposed to take us to Twilight Cloud Island? Why is Sect Leader Feng here?"
