Chapter 49 Chapter 49 You have measured it with your tongue...

The room was completely silent, with only the crisp sound of the spirit stones trembling. The spiritual energy in the formation was absorbed by the two spiritual powers and penetrated into the body.

Wei Xin realized that his external injuries had almost healed, so he opened his eyes.

Yun Du on the opposite side was still meditating to gather his luck. He had consumed a large amount of spiritual energy, so it would take him even longer.

Wei Xin left the room quietly.

The internal strife caused heavy casualties this time. Three out of the four hall masters were injured, and only five of the sixteen sect masters remained. The other disciples were either dead or injured, and a large number of people were imprisoned for rebellion.

He arrived at Xique's residence, where several injured people were lying. Dongying was busy treating these people and also had to take care of the placement of other disciples. It was a very stressful time, but he couldn't find anyone to discuss things with.

Just today, he continued to ask several other people who had awakened how to deal with the rebellious disciples.

Nan Huang: “Skin them and pull out their tendons!”

Beigu: "Refine the medicine and test the poison."

Xique: "Ah? What happened outside?"

"My Lord!" Dong Ying was like seeing a savior when he saw Wei Xin coming, and he quickly asked him for instructions, "What should we do with the people in the dungeon?"

"Continue to detain them, but don't be too harsh. Send them some spirit stones regularly so that they can cultivate well." Wei Xin said.

Dong Ying was a little surprised. He thought the Lord would use some drastic measures, but he didn't expect it to be just a small punishment and he would help them continue their cultivation.

After being surprised, he found the most reasonable explanation - the Lord and Yun Du had been together for a long time, and through what they saw and heard, they had learned Qingguan Zong Renzhi's ways.

In fact, he was completely wrong.

Wei Xin had no idea that there were so many twists and turns in his straightforward mind. He just wanted to preserve his fighting power just in case.

As early as when Yin Changming mentioned several times that he had survived many disasters and attributed it to the Red Blood Pearl, he had another guess in his mind - maybe it was God who would not allow him to die?

Although the Red Blood Pearl is powerful, his father had not suffered as much injuries as he did, so why did he still die so early?

So he was more inclined to believe that it was due to the will of heaven, or rather, the book.

Judging from the ending, no matter how many twists and turns he experienced before, he would eventually die at the hands of Xu Shunyun and Jin.

Up to now, although he has changed some of the processes in the middle, the key plot still corresponds to the content of the book, and it seems that it is still heading towards that dead end.

“My Lord, I’m almost recovered.” Nan Huang stood up and came to him.

Wei Xin was stunned for a moment and stared at her intently.

Nan Huang saw that he seemed to have discovered something extraordinary, and his eyes gradually became heated, which made her feel shy. When she felt shy, she wanted to hit him: "My Lord, I want to go to the dungeon to play!"

Wei Xin looked at her back as she walked away. This time, Nan Huang did not betray him, nor did she fall in love with Xu Shun. So what would the ending be? Did this change the ending a little?

“Stop, come back.” Wei Xin spoke lightly, and the next moment, Nan Huang flashed back.

"My Lord, do you have any other instructions?"

"Do you like Xu Shun?"

“???” Nan Huang was confused, “My Lord, you are not planning to send me to marry a foreign prince, are you?!”

“…” That’s a nice thought.

"No, I don't want a little disciple! If you must give someone away, then give it to the leader of Qingguan Sect. He may be a little old, but being the leader's wife seems to be quite fun!" Nan Huang took stock of the talents of Qingguan Sect in her mind and found that Yun Du seemed to be the only handsome man with high status and strength who met the requirements. Unfortunately, she was already the wife of the leader.

If you have to choose, choose one with a higher status!

“When I get married, I will torture that leader to death first, and then I can take the throne, hehe!” The more Nan Huang thought about it, the better it seemed. She had already begun to imagine her own heroic deeds.

"......" Wei Xin looked at her strangely, "Have you ever thought about killing me and taking over?"

“No!!!” Nan Huang shook her head like a wave drum, “At most, I thought about killing Yin Changming and usurping his throne!”

This look of being in love made Wei Xin quite satisfied.

After a few more days, the surviving disciples were counted. Wei Xin summoned everyone and redeployed the personnel. Four hall masters were all promoted to elders, and the remaining five sect masters were directly promoted to hall masters. The remaining position was left vacant for the time being, and would be appointed based on the performance of the others. For a moment, everyone was excited and wanted to perform.

After being promoted to elder, Nan Huang was very proud.

On the contrary, Bei Ou had a sad face. She found Wei Xin privately and said, "After Zhong Lang wakes up, I still want to go back to Lin City with him and take care of him until he dies. Only then can I return to the clan."

"...Are you sure he really needs you to see him off to the end?" Wei Xin pondered.

Perhaps Beiou was injured at the time and was too emotional, so he didn't think much about it even when he saw Zhongxiang holding the sword.

But Wei Xin saw clearly that the light from the jade pendant was integrated into Zhong Xiang's body, in exactly the same way as Yun Du had urgently transferred spiritual power to him when he rushed into the secret room.

Furthermore, the sword that could block Yin Changming must be of extraordinary quality.

The jade pendant was given by Yundu. The person who could make Yundu, who lives a secluded life, give him such a large gift must not be an acquaintance.

He already had a guess in his mind and was just waiting for Yundu and Zhongxiang to wake up to confirm it. Although he was almost sure of the answer, he still wanted to know the inside story.

"Master, people from the Qingguan Sect are here!" a disciple came to report.

At the same time, another disciple came running over from the other side: "Master, the... uh... guest in your room has woken up and is looking for you!"

Wei Xin hesitated for a moment, and Bei Ou said with interest: "I will go meet the people of Qingguan Sect."

Wei Xin nodded, turned and walked towards the bedroom, but the room was empty.

He looked around and finally found a white figure in the back mountain - Yun Du was squatting under a tree, holding a branch in his hand and digging the soil.

"What are you doing?"

"This tree is so strong. I want to see if there are any treasures buried underneath."

Wei Xin looked up at the big tree in front of him. It blocked a large part of his view. It was indeed very thick, but he had never paid attention to observe any signs of its growth.

He lowered his head and looked at the robe dragging on the ground, which was covered with dirt and dust. He was very annoyed: "Don't dig it out. What treasure can there be here?"

Yun Du said nothing, but just kept taking.

"Let's go. Someone from the Qingguan Sect has come. They are either here to take advantage of your misfortune or to look for you." Wei Xin reached out and grabbed his arm.

"Wait, I found it." Yun Du said.

Wei Xin looked over with doubt and actually found a bag of something buried in the soil. He squatted beside it curiously and asked, "What is it?"

Yundu took it out and opened the tattered bag, revealing a dozen perfectly round stones.

"It's a spiritual stone. It has no spiritual power anymore." Yun Du said.

Spiritual stones come in all shapes and sizes, and it's amazing to find such a round stone. Wei Xin said disdainfully, "Who is so bored that he buried these things here?"

"Maybe it was some bored ghost who wanted to use the spirit stones to make the tree grow taller and thicker." Yun Du smiled softly, tied the bag and buried it again.

Wei Xin said with a smile: "Who would be so stupid?"

"How can I be stupid? She's so cute." Yun Du covered the dirt, got up and walked outside, "Let's go and see who's here."

Wei Xin fell behind him, looked down at the small mound, kicked the dirt off, and muttered, "Cute bullshit, you idiot, everyone is cute!"

Yundu turned around and asked, "What are you mumbling about?"

"They say you have high eyebrows, lame eyes and a crooked mouth!"

Yun Du laughed out loud, and when he came closer, he said, "Don't you know whether my mouth is crooked or not? You have measured it with your tongue."

"Get out!!!" Wei Xin jumped up and kicked.

When Nan Huang heard that people from the Qingguan Sect were coming, he immediately led his men down the mountain to attack them. However, as soon as he walked out of the hall, he saw Bei Ou coming back with two people.

Yep, old acquaintance.

"What are you doing here?" she asked, standing outside the door with her arms folded.

"I made an appointment with my senior brother. If he doesn't come back within ten days, I will come here to look for him." Yun Jin said, "Where is my senior brother? Is he okay?"

"He was slightly injured, but has woken up now." Beiou answered before Nanhuang opened his poisonous mouth.

These two people were obviously here to pick someone up, so it was better not to be hostile. And this time, thanks to Yun Du's help, we were able to resolve this crisis, so naturally we had to give Yun Jin and the others some face.

Yun Jin was still a little worried because he hadn’t seen the person in person. “Where is my senior brother? I want to see him.”

"He...he is coming." Beiou looked behind her and saw the Lord sneaking up on Yundu from behind and grabbing Yundu's hair.

At that moment, Beiou just wanted to cover Yunjin's eyes.

Fortunately, when Yun Jin looked over, the Lord had already let go of his hand, and put his hands behind his back with a very righteous look on his face.

"Brother! Are you okay?" Yun Jin ran over with a worried look on his face.

"It's okay. Thank you for the trip." Yun Duqian said with a smile.

"I'm glad you're okay. Is everything resolved?"

"Almost."

"Then let's go down the mountain." Yun Jin said anxiously.

"Wait, I have one more thing to do."

"What?"

Yun Du walked towards Beiou: "Is Zhongxiang still not awake?"

"Well, I've tried spiritual power and herbs, but there's no improvement." Beigu's brows were filled with worry, and he pleaded, "The master said that there might be a way when you wake up. Can you save him?"

Yun Du glanced at Wei Xin with a faint smile and said, "Take me there."

The northern gull immediately led the way.

Yun Chen followed his senior brother in the mist, secretly observing the situation inside the Xuanji Sect.

"What are you looking at?" Nan Huang noticed her furtive look.

"It's so depressing here, grey and gloomy." Yun Jin blurted out.

Nan Huang looked at her in shock. She actually found someone who shared the same opinion as her. "Is that so? I told you that this place is not suitable for weddings. I'm going to replace all of this with mahogany. Do you have any ideas?"

"What's the good news?"

"Of course it belongs to the Lord and your brother. We have almost decided on it."

"What?!"

Yun Jin looked at the senior brother walking in front of him in disbelief, thinking: You are taking so long to come down the mountain, are you planning a wedding? !

Wei Xin who fell behind: "......"

I really wanted to dispel the rumor, but seeing her and Xu Shun looking frightened, I felt inexplicably happy.

"We're here." Beiou pushed open the door, looked inside, and said in surprise, "Husband, you're awake?!"

Several people walked in one after another and found that Zhong Xiang had aged a lot. His hair was gray and his face was wrinkled. He didn't even have the strength to speak, and could only blink weakly.

Beiou quickly felt his pulse, put a hand on her shoulder and patted her.

"Let me do it." Yun Du said.

Bei Ou raised his head, his eyes were filled with tears, he was speechless, and fell to the side in pain - next to him was Wei Xin, which was inappropriate.

Then she fell to the other side, leaned on Nan Huang, and sobbed softly.

Nan Huang looked up to the sky helplessly: "......"

Yun Jin was somewhat moved when she saw Beiou crying so sadly. She was used to seeing the cold-blooded and ruthless people of the Demon Sect, and this was the first time she saw such a scene and she was deeply moved.

She walked behind Yun Du, glanced at the person on the bed, and after a moment, she was stunned.

"You, you are..." She slowly leaned over and looked down at the old face.

He forced a weak smile and silently called her name.

"Second Brother?!" She held his hand with tears of joy and trembled, "Second Brother, is it really you? Are you still alive?"

"Second Brother?!"

The others said in unison, each one more surprised than the last. Beigu even forgot to cry. He was so shocked that he was stunned and didn't know how to react.

Only Wei Xin was not surprised at all and accepted it well.

"Everyone, please go out and wait. We need to treat Zhong Xiang's injuries." Yun Du said slowly, "Yun Jin, stop crying. Save people first."

"Okay!" Yun Jin wiped away his tears with a smile, sent the others out, and then closed the door.

Several people were standing outside the door, and before they could come to terms with the reality, they could hear Dongying's footsteps nearby.

"My Lord, everything has been arranged in the dungeon." Dongying said, and then he looked at Beiyu who was leaning on Nanhuang, looking like he was about to die, and asked, "What happened to Beiyu?"

"Beiou hid her identity from her powerless husband, only to find out that her husband is an old boss and a mortal enemy," Nanhuang explained.

Dongying: “?”

I just went out for a while, how come I can't understand what people say?

"Dong Ying, check something for me." Wei Xin suddenly said.

Dong Ying saw his solemn expression and couldn't help but ask: "What do you want to find out, Lord?"

"Go check who secretly buried the spiritual stone under the tree in the back mountain."

How dare you dig in his territory? You must be tired of living like this!

"???"

Is this some kind of emergency?

Dongying was confused, but he didn't dare to ask more questions. He just followed the instructions and said, "What should we do after we find out?"

"Hit his mouth!"
