Chapter 77 Will Master Qingyu regret it after he wakes up?
On the steps, the woman wore a Taoist robe, her gaze aloof and cold, as if she cared nothing for the mundane affairs of the world.
Why do those eyes look so much like Ye Li's?
A strange feeling rose in Su Ying'er's heart. She had only known that Jiang Li looked somewhat similar to Ye Li, but now she realized that their expressions were also so similar.
You see, what she hated most was Ye Li's eyes and that aloof, arrogant demeanor; she was absolutely certain she hadn't misjudged him.
Could it really be Ye Li who has returned?
No, that's impossible.
Others may not know, but she knows perfectly well that Ye Li is not only dead, but her soul has also been scattered, making it impossible for her to have any chance of possessing another body.
That was because Jiang Li deliberately imitated Ye Li in order to seduce Wen Yao.
However, even Ye Li herself couldn't beat her, let alone an imposter.
Faced with Ye Li's questioning, Su Ying'er's delicate body went limp, and she collapsed to the ground, crying out to the sky.
“It’s all Ying’er’s fault. Ying’er couldn’t stop her senior sister from going astray, and now she can’t even fulfill her senior sister’s last wish. Ying’er has no face to live in this world.”
"Senior sister! I'm coming to find you right now!"
After shouting that, she stumbled and bumped into the edge of the steps.
"Ying'er!"
Having lost Ye Li, Lu Ziting saw that Su Ying'er was also in a daze, and stumbled over to her.
Fortunately, Su Ying'er only had a minor scrape on her forehead. The slight blush on her fair face made her look quite pitiful.
Even so, Lu Ziting remained extremely angry.
Turning to look at Ye Li, he was furious. "Jiang Li! If anything happens to Ying'er, you'll be sorry!"
"You have to hand over this spiritual root today, whether you like it or not! It's not up to you!"
Enraged, Lu Ziting resorted to force, raising his hand to form a hand seal and lock it towards Ye Li.
He wanted to take Ye Li back and remove her spiritual root to replace it with one for his Ying'er!
Ye Li never expected that Lu Ziting could be so unable to distinguish right from wrong, and she felt increasingly disgusted with his character.
The difference in their cultivation levels allowed her to easily dodge Lu Ziting's thunderous attack by slightly shifting her body to the side.
Not only was she unharmed, but her contemptuous gaze seemed to transport Lu Ziting back to the time when he was dueling with Ye Li, and his anger erupted instantly.
"A mere trick! Take this!"
However, no matter how hard he tried to attack Ye Li, he was always one step behind her.
In the end, the scene even became somewhat comical.
Lu Ziting was panting heavily, while Ye Li was not only unharmed, but hadn't even left the steps.
The disciples wanted to laugh but dared not because of Lu Ziting's face, so they could only wipe their faces repeatedly.
Lu Ziting felt the mocking gazes around him, and anger surged in his chest.
He gathered his energy in both hands, clasped them together, and then opened them again. Spiritual energy swirled in his palms, continuously accumulating power.
A full-force attack from a Golden Core cultivator!
This is no longer just a simple arrest. If Ye Li is actually hit, given her current Qi Refining stage body, she will undoubtedly die.
Ye Li narrowed her eyes.
Actually, it wasn't that she couldn't handle the attack, but she had to use her soul cultivation technique to receive it, and she didn't want to expose her soul cultivation secrets unless absolutely necessary.
The fluctuations of spiritual energy around Lu Ziting stirred up dust and stones, and the tree branches rustled as they vibrated.
In the blink of an eye, he suddenly unleashed his power and attacked Ye Li!
Many disciples felt that Ye Li was doomed this time.
The situation was critical, and Ye Li couldn't care less about anything else.
Just as she was about to retaliate, a surge of spiritual energy suddenly appeared and deflected Lu Ziting's killing move.
A dignified voice rang out, "Who dares to cause trouble in my outer sect!"
Ye Li looked towards the door and saw that it was Elder Song from the outer sect.
When Ye Li's gaze met that of Sang Sang, who was next to Elder Song and was giving her all sorts of meaningful glances, she guessed that Sang Sang had gone to fetch reinforcements.
A feeling of warmth inexplicably welled up in my heart.
As a direct disciple of the Lotus Sect, Lu Ziting only symbolically clasped his hands in greeting when he met the outer sect elder.
"Elder, I have Lotus Sect internal affairs to attend to today, and I need to take Jiang Li with me."
Elder Song frowned and looked at Lu Ziting. "Jiang Li is my outer disciple. How can you just take her away like that? What do you want with her?"
"It's because Jiang Li tricked my Lotus Sect out of the Marrow Cleansing Pill. This disciple wants to dig out her Water Spirit Root and return it to Ying'er."
"absurd!"
Elder Song scolded, "Although my outer disciples are not as valuable as your direct disciples, they are not worthless cabbages for you to pick and choose! Besides, I have already heard that Wen Yao gave the Marrow Cleansing Pill to Jiang Li. If you don't want to, you should go and dig out Wen Yao's spiritual root. What are you doing in the outer sect!"
Upon hearing this, Ye Li almost wanted to applaud Elder Song.
Everyone knows that Elder Song has a bad temper, but everyone respects her, not only because she is decisive and impartial, but also because of one of her characteristics.
Protective parent.
Whether they are from the inner sect, the outer sect, or her direct disciples, she will not let anyone who bullies her get away with it.
Elder Song's impolite tone displeased Lu Ziting. In order to take Ye Li away, he brought up Master Qingyu.
"Elder, before Master fell into a deep sleep, he gave us orders to cleanse Junior Sister's marrow. Now that the pills have been stolen by Jiang Li, Elder, you won't let us arrest her. If Master wakes up and wants to ask about related matters, I'm afraid Elder won't be able to stop us."
As the highest-ranking inner sect of the Heavenly Gate Sect, the Lotus Sect's master, True Person Qingyu, possessed immense magical power and held a lofty position, to the point that Lu Ziting completely disregarded Elder Song.
"Are you threatening me?"
Elder Song immediately saw through his thoughts. She sneered, "Don't even mention True Person Qingyu, even if the sect leader came, I would only say this: I am in charge of how my outer disciples are treated, and I don't need anyone else."
Lu Ziting looked displeased and was about to say something when a junior disciple from the Lotus Sect responsible for sweeping stumbled in and whispered a few words to Lu Ziting.
Lu Ziting was overjoyed upon hearing this, "Are you serious! He's really awake!"
"Absolutely true!"
He stopped fighting and helped Su Ying'er up. "Since the elder insists, then let's wait for Master to come and negotiate with you."
Judging from his confident and fearless tone, Ye Li guessed that Master Qingyu had woken up.
Speaking of which, ever since the day the misty camphor forest collapsed and Qingyu Zhenren was seriously injured and fell into a coma after being defeated by Guimian, she has never seen Qingyu Zhenren again.
In the illusion, Master Qingyu had already witnessed her tragic death. She was curious about how Master Qingyu would react knowing that she had died because of his cold-heartedness.

Lotus Gate
"Master! You're finally awake! If you hadn't woken up, Ying'er would have gone with you..."
As soon as Su Ying'er entered Qingyu Zhenren's cave, she knelt down beside his bed and sobbed.
Unusually, Master Qingyu ignored her. He slowly raised his hand, as if checking his spiritual veins, or as if confirming whether everything before was a dream.
Suddenly, he looked at Lu Ziting, who had come in with Su Ying'er, and asked, "Where is A-Li?"
Lu Ziting was taken aback, his tone hesitant, "Are you asking about her body?"
