Chapter 1250 A Defeated General
"Do you... do you really think you can succeed?"
Bai Lu raised his hand, and the sword he used most often appeared in his palm. The sword was cold and murderous, just like his own style.
"You'll know if it works if you try. Didn't you want to attack me in the first place? That's perfect."
"White Egret, you traitor!"
On the top floor of Xichuan Building, the moment Ye Linglong hugged Pei Luobai, she felt an unprecedented sense of security.
Although the senior brother in front of her was strong, he was also very weak. He was so weak that he couldn't withstand her palm in his current state.
"Junior sister, you are not dead, you are back, I finally see you!"
Pei Luobai hugged Ye Linglong tightly with his backhand, feeling her breath and warmth, and the news he had heard over the years kept flashing through his mind.
She was forced by the seven major sects to jump into the Nine Netherworlds and Eighteen Abysses, and from then on, there was no possibility of returning.
Pei Luobai's body was shaking a little and his voice was choked. He had experienced hope, despair, regret and self-blame over the years.
If he had worked harder and gained freedom and fled to Central Plains earlier, perhaps his junior sister and the others would not have encountered those things.
Even if he couldn't change the past, he would at least stay with her and wouldn't let her jump into the underworld alone.
He hated himself for more than a hundred years, and kept thinking over and over again, what should he do if all this was irreversible and his junior sister really died in the Nine Netherworlds and Eighteen Abysses.
But all the hatred and pain were released the moment he saw his junior sister.
He had a lot to say and a lot to do. He was more excited and overwhelmed than when he recognized her last night, but now was not the time.
The moment Shen Lixian and the other three flew over, he controlled all his emotions.
He patted Ye Linglong on the shoulder.
"This is not the place to talk. Let's leave first."
"Then this Xichuanlou..."
"It has nothing to do with me. I took action because I finally waited for you. Now that you are here, I will solve these problems myself and no longer have to worry about them."
Pei Luobai let go of Ye Linglong and patted Shen Lixian and Mu Xiaoran on the shoulders.
"Walk."
Pei Luobai brought Ye Linglong and the others back to the flying boat that originally belonged to Xichuanlou.
Before he drove away in the flying boat, he took a look behind the boat. After making sure that he did not see the flying boat of Dongwang Palace, he drove away without looking back.
As soon as Pei Luobai left, the killers who had seen the host's body being thrown down were all confused.
"Why is Nightingale gone? Where did he go? Why doesn't he say a word?"
"Yeah, if he killed the host, wouldn't he be the host? If he doesn't stay to clean up the mess, where will he go?"
"He really knew these passers-by. The OP didn't wrongly accuse him!"
"Does it matter whether it's unfair or not? The winner has been decided, and the host is no match for Nightingale anymore."
"Then what should we do? We still have Xichuanlou's Zizhu on us! In this case, aren't we all doomed?"
As soon as these words were spoken, all the killers in the Xichuan Building who witnessed this scene panicked, and at this moment, someone turned over the body of the building owner.
"The mother pig is still alive! Nightingale has protected it in a pig box!"
"What?! Then...how should we deal with this?"
All the killers in Xichuanlou were in chaos in an instant, with panic, excitement, confusion, and worry all mixed together.
The future path and where to go become unpredictable at this moment.
Pei Luobai drove the flying boat to a stop on a solitary mountain. There was a waterfall on the mountain, and under the waterfall there was a small manor.
The manor is simple, but looks clean and comfortable.
"Brother, this isn't your home, is it?"
Ye Linglong pushed open the fence door and looked inside curiously.
"Not really. It's just a place where I usually rest. Go in. This is probably the last time I'll come here in my life."
"Eh? Why is there a chessboard in this yard, Senior Brother? Who are you playing chess with?" Mu Xiaoran asked.
"A defeated general."
"Oh?" Shen Lixian asked with his soul.
Pei Luobai walked into one of the rooms, sat down, took out medicine from the ring, and prepared to heal himself.
Seeing how badly he was injured, Ye Linglong and Hua Shiqing hurried forward, one of them took the medicine and the other treated him, and they soon got busy.
Mu Xiaoran and Shen Lixian were waiting in the yard, and continued playing chess on the board when they had nothing to do.
Pei Luobai's injuries were very serious, but he managed to keep it under control very well.
All his actions and decisions were at the most dangerous point. Whether it was having his heart bitten by locusts or cutting open his body to catch insects with his bare hands, he would be dead if he was not careful.
But he really dared. After not seeing him for many years, he had become ruthless and did not hesitate to attack his opponents.
Ye Linglong and Hua Shiqing felt heavy in their hearts when they were treating his shocking wounds. It really wasn't easy for Senior Brother to come this far.
But he came, and when they came, he had settled all his affairs, without worrying anybody.
This is the senior brother.
"Don't be so serious, you two. You won't die." Pei Luobai said with a smile.
"Brother, you are really scary like this."
Hua Shiqing didn't see with her own eyes how he did it, but the wound could not deceive anyone. What she could imagine was horrifying enough.
"Does Junior Sister also find this scary?"
Ye Linglong nodded without hesitation.
“Of course it’s scary.”
"Is there anything scarier than you sending everyone away and resolutely jumping off the Nine Hells and Eighteen Abysses?"
Ye Linglong was stunned, and Hua Shiqing's mind suddenly turned.
"Junior sister, what is Nine Hells and Eighteen Abysses? You jumped down? You...you didn't tell me!"
"First of all, I didn't jump down alone. Even though Dayezi has no spiritual power and Heilong is not a human, you can't just ignore them."
"Junior sister!"
Ye Linglong raised his eyes and looked towards Pei Luobai.
"That's all in the past, isn't it?"
Pei Luobai looked at her eyes which were more determined than before, and recalled her calm look when he seriously injured her in Qiyang City, and her murderous look when he intercepted her outside the City Lord's Mansion.
The little junior sister has grown a lot compared to before.
The process was difficult, but she got through it, so she could easily say to him, "It's all over."
"Just like our senior brother, he clearly recognized us that night, but he didn't acknowledge us directly. Instead, he turned around and cut off the grudges that had lasted for more than a hundred years with a single sword, not wanting us to get involved. Only then was he willing to take off the mask on his face."
Ye Linglong smiled slightly, and her smile was very bright.
"The hundred years that belonged to you are all gone, aren't they?"
Pei Luobai smiled with mixed emotions.
"If Junior Sister says yes, then it is."
