Chapter 89



◎My mind is full of love.◎

[Pei Ji's favorability towards you +10, currently 85. ]

The system sound suddenly rang in his mind, and An Jiu was stunned for a moment before he came back to his senses.

Only then did she have time to look around, and immediately discovered a circle of people lying around her, each with countless silver needles sticking out of their bodies.

There were no scars on their bodies, nor signs of fighting, but they had all died quietly. Their faces were dark blue, and it was obvious that they had been poisoned.

Judging from the silver needles all over the ground, Pei Ji may have used an extremely powerful hidden weapon, which could send out tens of millions of extremely poisonous silver needles in an instant, covering the sky and the sun and making it impossible to defend against. This is why the ten great demons of the Demon Cult died in an instant.

Looking further into the distance, Protector Mei had already fled even further away, and there was no trace of blood on her charming and beautiful face.

She did not run away, but stood in the distance and watched, looking at Pei Ji with a very strange look, as if she was looking at a monster.

An Jiu looked at her, and the next second, his cheek was gently touched by hot fingers.

"Are you scared?" A gentle voice asked from behind.

An Jiu turned away and said subconsciously: "Don't be afraid, you are here to save me."

If she was afraid, she would have been afraid a long time ago. Why would she be afraid now?

That's why she answered this question with extra sincerity, which made Pei Ji curl his thin lips and smile slightly.

He always smiles, as if he is wearing a smiling mask, but nothing is as bright as this faint smile.

Even though she only slightly raised the corners of her lips and curved the corners of her eyes slightly downward, An Jiu was startled.

She pursed her lips, smiled, and said happily: "Pei Ji, your leg is healed!"

The girl's tone was extremely happy, and anyone who heard this could feel the happiness in her voice.

It seemed that it was not his legs that were good, but her legs in general.

The smile on the young man in white faded slightly, and he thought of the things he had forgotten. Or maybe it wasn't forgotten, but in a hurry, he had thrown them all behind his mind.

His leg was indeed healed, but how could he explain the fact that he had pretended to be lame all the way?

And how do we explain those hidden weapons and poison techniques?

It’s easy to deal with other people. If you are not familiar with it, just ignore it and others will not get to the bottom of it.

The only ones who need explanation are the two "friends" Lin Qingyan and He Ziqing.

Having lived his life over again, Pei Ji understood better than anyone else the incredible luck that He Ziqing had.

He was able to turn misfortune into fortune and disaster into blessing, as if he was God's own son. Those who went against him met a miserable end, while those who were on good terms with him were all honored.

He had gone against He Ziqing once in his previous life, but he didn't want to repeat the same mistake this time.

Just as he was thinking this, he heard the girl lean over to his ear and whispered, "You've been pretending for so long, do you want to give me a surprise?"

Pei Ji's eyes flashed, his narrow black eyes narrowed slightly, and his gaze fell lightly on the girl.

The girl's cheeks had turned red without her noticing. She rolled her big dark eyes, with a cunning light between her brows.

"Humph, I won't be fooled. You said before that I couldn't practice that skill, but you were also lying to me, right?" She pursed her lips tightly, but her rosy little mouth kept curling up, unable to hide her little pride, "What is there to hide? You've been pretending for so long, but you still failed. But I have to say, I'm still quite surprised. I don't mind being lied to~"

The girl couldn't hide her feelings, and whatever she was thinking showed on her face.

With just one glance, Pei Ji understood what she was thinking.

He had just used all his tricks to save her, and she was a vain and shallow woman. How could she not be proud of a man who had spent all his time and effort to save her?

Thinking of this, Pei Ji suddenly withdrew his hand and let her go, taking a step back to put some distance between them.

He said nothing and sat back in his wheelchair.

"Hey hey hey? Pei Ji, what's wrong with you?"

Pei Ji sat in a wheelchair, his eyelashes drooping and his eyes slightly closed, and said lightly: "I feel a little unwell, let me rest for a while."

As soon as these words came out, An Jiu quickly shut his mouth.

What Pei Ji said was not false, he did feel very uncomfortable.

However, this discomfort not only came from the restless internal force in his body, but also from his heart.

He just realized that he might like this woman, and his mind was in a mess, but now he fell into deeper confusion.

Pei Ji couldn't understand why he liked An Jiu.

What's so good about this woman? She has no merits other than her beautiful appearance.

He originally thought that he liked Lin Qingyan, at least he thought so in his previous life.

Lin Qingyan is beautiful, intelligent, kind, gentle, well-educated, and considerate. She is a perfect woman in the public sense.

So in the last moments of his life, he imprisoned Lin Qingyan and forced her to marry him.

Pei Ji didn’t understand love. He just felt that dying with the person he loved might make him happier.

But in the end, he did not find happiness.

He didn't mind that Lin Qingyan didn't love him. He had no fun marrying Lin Qingyan. He didn't feel betrayed when he died at Lin Qingyan's hands.

After his rebirth, he understood that perhaps his feelings for Lin Qingyan were not

?

Not like.

Pei Ji didn’t understand what love was. He was still that emotionless, cold-blooded monster.

Until just now, when the girl in red was held hostage and looked at him, Pei Ji was shocked for a moment.

Intense fear, panic, dread and other emotions grabbed his heart like a big hand, followed by raging rage, making him want to kill the man on the spot.

Pei Ji had never experienced such strong and urgent emotions.

He forgot his reason, his plan, and everything. All he saw were the girl's tearful eyes, and he just wanted to take her back.

At that moment, he even forgot that she was just a vessel for his detoxification.

It was also at that moment that Pei Ji understood his own feelings.

He actually likes her!

How could he like her?! Like that good-for-nothing woman?

Thinking of the men An Jiu had hooked up with, Feiyi was one, and there was also the Prince of Ming Wang, Ming Yi, then Feichen, and He Ziqing... Why would he like such a fickle woman?

[Pei Ji's favorability towards you -5, currently 80. ]

[Pei Ji's favorability towards you +5, currently 85. ]

【……】

Here it comes, the familiar screen swiping is here again.

An Jiu glanced at the man in the wheelchair and saw that his face was pale and his brows were slightly furrowed. Under the bright sunlight, his entire body was flawless snow-white, like a man carved out of white jade.

Who could have thought that this gentleman, as pure as white jade and otherworldly, would be so obsessed with love in such an occasion?

An Jiu sighed, endured the discomfort of the screen being refreshed, and turned to look at Protector Mei in the distance.

Because Pei Ji destroyed the Ten Heavenly Luos of the Demon Cult with one move, there was now an empty space around them and no one dared to step forward to try out the strange hidden weapon.

Of course, this is the territory of the Demon Cult after all.

So the current situation is that An Jiu and Pei Ji are left alone in the open space in front of the hall, with a circle of people surrounding them from a distance, preventing them from escaping.

While An Jiu was observing Protector Mei and others, Protector Mei was also observing them.

"That is the hidden weapon of the Tianji Pavilion." A man appeared silently beside Protector Mei and said in a deep voice.

Mei Guardian turned around and asked, "Tianji Pavilion?"

The person next to her was wearing a Taoist robe, his hair and beard were all white, and there was a auspicious cloud wooden hairpin in his hair, which gave him a rather free and unrestrained air.

This person is none other than Lan, the most mysterious and least seen guardian of the Demon Cult.

Guardian Lan raised his hand and stroked his beard. He looked at the young man in white in the wheelchair and the girl in red standing behind him. He said calmly, "The Tianji Pavilion was a famous underworld force a hundred years ago. The people in the pavilion were proficient in hidden weapons. Many martial arts masters fell under the hidden weapons of the Tianji Pavilion. Later, they were wiped out because they offended a major sect. I don't know where this person got the inheritance of the Tianji Pavilion, and he also has poison skills. We can't deal with him."

As soon as Guardian Lan finished speaking, the group of people from the Demon Cult who were watching from afar gave up the idea of ​​a forceful attack.

At this moment, there was a sound of wind in the hall, and then a man flew out from the hall and fell heavily to the ground.

It’s Ah Qi.

Ah Qi had several wounds on his body. He was half lying on the ground, covering his chest and suddenly spurting out a mouthful of blood.

An Jiu was startled and quickly stepped forward to help the man up.

"Thank you Miss An."

After Ah Qi stood up, he came to Pei Ji's side and said with his head down, "Sir, the evil ghost mask is too strong, and he has a red gauze in his hand, I dare not get too close."

Although Hua Mei was taken away by Pei Zhou, the red gauze she left behind was still in Hua Xuan's hands.

Ah Qi and He Ziqing are both good at martial arts and should be able to defeat Hua Xuan. However, they are outmatched because they are concerned about the poisonous red gauze in Hua Xuan's hand.

He Ziqing took the detoxification pill and the impact was not significant.

Pei Ji opened his eyes silently, took out the black gold folding fan from his sleeve, handed it to Ah Qi, and said, "Use this."

Ah Qi took the folding fan with great care and rushed into the hall again.

This time there was no delay for too long, and soon An Jiu saw the people from the Demon Sect who were surrounding them also rushed into the hall.

Hua Xuan couldn't hold on any longer and called his subordinates to join in the fight.

However, the protagonist is invincible. No matter how powerful the villain is, the protagonist will win in the end.

Even if you can't, you can still have an epiphany and breakthrough in the face of danger, and achieve the achievement of challenging opponents of higher levels and defeating ten thousand enemies alone.

An Jiu was not in the hall, so he didn't know what was happening inside and had no interest in watching the murder scenes.

Anyway, all I heard was a burst of shouting and some faint conversations, then there was the sound of ping-pong swords clashing, and finally a few people from the Demon Cult ran out of the hall, looking like they were fleeing in panic.

When someone saw An Jiu and Pei Ji, his eyes lit up and he seemed to want to do something. However, just as he rushed over here, he was pierced in the middle of his eyebrows by a silver needle and fell from mid-air, landing on his face.

Dharma Protectors Mei and Ju did not participate in the battle. They realized that the situation was not good and quietly retreated down the mountain.

On the mountain path, there was no worry on the faces of the two men, only a look of indifference and calmness.

Mei Hufa said, "We two old guys need to stay dormant for a few more years. Mr. Lan, I wonder which seedling you picked this time?"

Guardian Lan stroked his beard and said, "The one I picked up five years ago, although his physique is not as good as Hua Xuan's, his character is much stronger. If he takes the position, the Demon Cult can also maintain peace for decades."

Not everyone wants to live in turmoil all the time, not even those who are members of the evil cult.

Every few decades, people from the Central Plains would come to fight against the Demon Sect, and Dharma Protector Lan had experienced this three times.

The reason why the Demon Cult cannot be wiped out is because there are people like Protector Lan guarding the rear.

The leaders of the cult may change, but the cult remains forever.

The death of the leader will not shake the position of the Demon Cult. As long as the foundation is preserved, the Demon Cult will never perish.

There are many orphans in the northern border. In a few years, a new batch of cult members will emerge.

Mei said, "It's a pity that Old Ju has stumbled."

Dharma Protector Lan said: "Pick another one from among his disciples to inherit his position as Dharma Protector."

As the two of them were talking, their figures disappeared from the mountain path.

At the same time, in the main hall on the top of Mingguang Mountain, Hua Xuan was pierced through the heart by He Ziqing's sword.

This campaign against the Demon Cult finally came to an end.
