Liu Yunqing did not linger at Tu Feng Cave. After providing two treatment plans, she quickly left.
Seeing that she was about to leave, Tu Feng panicked for a moment and hurriedly called out to Liu Yunqing, saying that he had not yet told her what he had found out.
Liu Yunqing noticed the dependence Tu Feng had developed on her amidst his panic, and smiled to comfort him:
"Don't worry, I'm not leaving Red Moon City. I have an appointment to meet someone and need to take care of some other things first. As for the information you found out, we can talk about it when I get back."
Tu Feng was naturally grateful and thanked him.
Watching Liu Yunqing's fleeting figure disappear into the distance, Tan Wu, the lackey by Tu Feng's bedside, glanced at Tu Feng's expression and cautiously said:
"Boss... you got injured while doing things for her, it's only right that she treats you..."
Before Tan Wu could finish speaking, Tu Feng stopped him with a glare that made Tan Wu feel extremely uncomfortable. Tan Wu then sighed and said:
There are so many things in this world that should be done, but have you seen anyone actually do them?
"Besides, my gathering information for Fellow Daoist Zhenru was part of a pre-arranged deal. The fact that things haven't been fully completed is my problem, so what does it have to do with her?"
The unspoken part of Tu Feng's sentence was that, given Liu Yuqing's current strength, there was no question of right or wrong; her willingness to get involved in his affairs was out of loyalty and affection.
After all, the cultivation world is all about who has the strongest fist.
Under such a rule, once a person in a high position is willing to show favoritism, it becomes the perfect choice for someone who wants to rely on them.
Tu Feng naturally felt some affection for those who depended on him for survival, but he wouldn't openly share these thoughts with them.
In the end, Tu Feng only gave one last piece of advice:
"Don't talk about what you should or shouldn't say anymore..."
...
Liu Yunqing, who left in a hurry, was unaware that she had received a sincere heart of submission. Her statement that she had made an appointment with someone was indeed not meant to be perfunctory with Tu Feng.
In fact, she received a message from Liu Yunzhao as soon as she arrived at Tu Feng Cave.
When she finished dealing with the matters at Tu Feng Cave and arrived at the agreed location, Liu Yunzhao had already been waiting for quite a while.
This gave Liu Yunzhao enough time to understand clearly that Liu Yunqing had singled out the Qiu family for a deal.
Leaning against the edge of the building, watching Liu Yunqing walk up to him step by step, completely unharmed and even more composed, Liu Yunzhao couldn't help but show some admiration as he looked her up and down.
"Fellow Daoist Zhenru is truly impressive. Now, everyone in Red Moon City is talking about the news of you taking on the Qiu family's Nascent Soul cultivator all by yourself."
Liu Yunqing gave a perfunctory smirk, her face devoid of any real smile. Ignoring Liu Yunzhao's words, she cut to the chase:
"We have no idle chatter between us. So, tell me, what do you want from me?"
Liu Yunzhao dropped his polite demeanor and looked at Liu Yunqing with a strange scrutiny.
Just as Liu Yunqing was about to lose his patience, Liu Yunzhao suddenly chuckled softly, flipped his hand, took out a box, and gently pushed it towards Liu Yunqing, saying:
Let me give you a gift first.
"Open it and take a look, you'll definitely like it."
When Liu Yunzhao said this, his expression carried a strange mix of anticipation and excitement.
Looking at Liu Yunzhao in this state, Liu Yunqing felt that the Liu Yunzhao in her memory, who always maintained a "divine" demeanor, was almost completely forgotten.
"A gift? Then please, Fairy Yun Zhao, demonstrate it yourself."
Liu Yunqing didn't touch the box. He gently flicked his palm towards the other party, and the opening of the box was once again facing Liu Yunzhao.
Liu Yunzhao didn't push the box forward again. Instead, he smiled meaningfully, then opened the box without hesitation and showed its contents to Liu Yunqing:
"This contains the souls of the entire Liu family, over a thousand people. Don't you like it?"
Liu Yunqing, who had been nonchalant, suddenly felt a jolt in his brow upon hearing this, and finally understood the reason for the strange look in Liu Yunzhao's eyes.
Liu Yunqing glanced at the divine souls that had condensed into transparent beads, and anger and resentment rose in her heart, but her expression returned to calm, making it impossible to tell whether she was happy or angry.
"Ha, you finally recognized me. You were much slower than I expected."
Liu Yunzhao recognizing Liu Yunqing was not unexpected; it was just a matter of time.
Putting aside the fact that Liu Yunqing and Zhenru have too many similarities, and that the two have never appeared at the same time.
Since Xiaohe Secret Realm, "Liu Yunqing" has never appeared again, which is very suspicious. With the increase in cultivation level and strength, the fire spirit root blessed by the Golden Crow essence blood, and all the other things about Liu Yunqing, it is actually difficult to dispel the suspicion just because the two look different.
This is the world of cultivation; changing one's appearance and becoming unrecognizable is not considered an extremely difficult task.
Liu Yunqing knew this well. After discovering his true appearance, he simply stopped wearing the Faceless Mask and let whoever was meant to discover it find out the truth.
Unexpectedly, after so many years, it was revealed on the spot that Liu Yunqing and the rogue cultivator Zhenru were the same person.
Seeing that Liu Yunqing remained unmoved, Liu Yunzhao's excitement and anticipation faded, but he still couldn't give up and said:
"Don't you want to know how I found out?"
Liu Yunqing waved his hand.
"I didn't expect that it took me so long to recognize myself after I showed my true self. It's not exactly clever of me."
"Compared to recognizing me, which is not a very technical thing, I admire Fairy Yun Zhao more for her ruthlessness in killing her own family members."
As Liu Yunqing spoke, her gaze lazily swept over the box of souls.
This truly alarmed Liu Yunqing.
When cultivators embark on the path of cultivation, what they seek is nothing more than power and immortality.
However, both of these, to a certain extent, involve cause and effect.
If Liu Yunqing takes action, it can still be said to be for revenge, and there is no blood or karmic connection between her and the Liu family.
Liu Yunzhao is a true member of the Liu family. Not only is she bound by blood, but the years of support the Liu family has provided for her have also deepened their bond.
Liu Yunqing felt that this person had lost her mind by ending the Liu family's life without regard for cause and effect.
Liu Yunzhao burst into laughter.
Liu Yunzhao, who always presented a calm and gentle image, had never laughed so wildly before.
What followed made Liu Yunqing realize that it wasn't that Liu Yunzhao was abnormal, but rather that she herself was too much of a person.
"Liu Yunqing... Oh, you're not surnamed Liu, so you probably don't bother calling people from the Liu family by their names. I should just call you Zhenru."
"Fellow Daoist Zhenru is still so kind and benevolent. I only took away their physical bodies, but did not destroy their souls. So it can be considered that I did not kill them."
"Moreover, only in this way can we ensure that they will not reveal any secrets when Fellow Daoist Zhenru comes to our door."
Liu Yunqing, no, now she should be called Zhenru in a completely formal way.
Zhenru's eyes widened suddenly, and she finally understood Liu Yunzhao's true purpose in doing so.
Liu Yunzhao didn't care about the life or death of the Liu family members at all. He was holding their souls captive in order to obtain the secrets he wanted to learn from them!
Clues about her background and where she came from!
