Sang Yi, the adopted son lying on the ground, was also stunned for a moment. He had never thought of such a thing. After Xu Yuehuai said these words, he smiled, with a bitter expression on his face. "I know I haven't been a good enough master. I'm about to die, so whatever you say goes. From now on, we will have no master-disciple relationship. Qingtao Valley will be inherited by the Grand Elder. She has always treated you well, so you don't have to worry about her mistreating you. As for anything else, I have no regrets."
As the saying goes, the more you talk, the more mistakes you make. If Zisang Yimei had said so much nonsense, like her dying wish for her disciple, she probably wouldn't have noticed Zisang Yi's abnormality. What she noticed was precisely those strange things Zisang Yi said. She knew very well that Zisang Yi wouldn't say such things, so the moment he uttered them, she had a little understanding of what kind of person this was.
However, there was still a slight uncertainty, but this slight uncertainty would not affect her judgment and decision on this matter at all. Until just now, when he said he had no regrets, he had never mentioned Sect Master Wei Sheng Liu, but Xu Yuehuai knew very well what Sect Master Wei Sheng Liu meant to him, and if it really came to this point, he would not not mention it.
When Zisangyi saw Xu Yuehuai through the screen, she looked at her serious and earnest face and instantly understood what she was thinking. She smiled and realized that they were indeed in sync.
How could he not mention Wei Shengliu? Those words he just spoke should have been addressed to Wei Shengliu. But this man from the ancient clan was too arrogant and got all these things wrong. He misunderstood who Zisangyi loved and how these things originated from the very beginning, and he made one mistake after another.
This scene puzzled the Dugu tribesman standing nearby. He frowned and asked, "Why? Is there some kind of secret code between you? How did she realize that the person was fake?"
"Why? I think this is obvious. What is fake can never become real. Even if it is disguised very closely, it can never become real. Do I need to tell you such a simple truth?" Zisangyi relaxed immediately. In the end, she had nothing to be afraid of now.
After realizing that the person in front of her was an imposter, Xu Yuehuai began to re-examine the place. What exactly did the person behind this want? That person had wanted her to go to the place where the black hole was discovered earlier... Could it be...?
Xu Yuehuai changed direction and immediately headed towards the black hole. After she left, the fake Zisangyi behind her died completely and returned to his original form, which was the ancient clan disciple who had just brought him in. The ancient clan disciple had never been able to gain control of his body until his death. He always listened to the command of the person behind him and had to obey unconditionally whatever the other party asked him to do.
He watched Xu Yuehuai's departing figure and revealed a bitter smile, as if mocking his own ridiculous life, or as if mocking his own delusional attempt to shake the unshakeable heavens and earth with his meager strength.
Xu Yuehuai made her way through a maze of twists and turns to the place where the black hole had been discovered earlier. She didn't approach easily. Since the people behind this already knew of her existence, and were still using someone like this to toy with her, they must have been prepared. It wouldn't be a wise choice for her to approach rashly now. She stood there, looking ahead with worry, her eyes fixed on the scene before her. The next second, she sneered and said, "I'm already here. Are you still going to hide behind the scenes and act like a coward?"
"Where did you take my master?" Xu Yuehuai knew perfectly well who was responsible for everything. She stared at the black hole in front of her, surrounded only by the sound of the wind and the two black-cloaked figures guarding the front of the black hole.
They were all surprised by Xu Yuehuai's sudden intrusion. Pointing their weapons at Xu Yuehuai, they said with hostility, "Who goes there! This is a forbidden area of our ancient clan. If you want to live, leave now! Otherwise, don't blame me for being impolite."
The woman in the black cloak looked at Xu Yuehuai warily. She was clearly no ordinary person, having arrived here unimpeded. "If you don't hand over my master, then I'm here to take your lives!"
Xu Yuehuai knew that there was no way to make peace with Shan in front of her today. Her silver sword appeared in her hand, pointing at the black-cloaked man standing opposite her.
She had seen these two people before, and now it was the same two people who appeared here. One of them, the man in the black cloak, looked hesitantly at the big boss standing next to him. He stammered, "Boss, what do we do now? This person seems to be quite strong. If we fight her, neither of us will likely gain any advantage."
"Useless! Don't say such discouraging things at a time like this. Have you forgotten what the adults told you? What are you trying to do by saying these things? Do you want to run away? You should know that the consequences of running away are worse than fighting to the death with this person in front of you!" Another person in a black cloak interrupted him immediately after he spoke, looking at him with a hint of disappointment in his eyes.
He immediately shut up, but when he saw what Xu Yuehuai looked like, he choked, "No, boss, the two of us can't beat him. What I meant was, can we go and get reinforcements? There's no need to fight to the death. Can't we just survive? Am I so heinous that I have to die?"
The man's face showed some confusion and grievance. He was still so young, while the person in front of him was the one who had defeated the Demon Lord. Even if he risked his life, he might not be able to exchange more than a few blows with this person. He didn't want to make such a pointless sacrifice.
Xu Yuehuai didn't intend to target the two of them, but things had come to this point, and someone always had to make a sacrifice to pave the way for what was to come.
"How dare you say you want to kill both of us! You're incredibly arrogant!" The man in the black cloak, who was called the leader, hesitated for a moment after considering the opinions of the people around him.
He winked at his underling, signaling him to go ahead and get reinforcements. The underling was worried about his boss and didn't want to leave, but the situation left them no choice: either die here together or leave to get reinforcements.
He pursed his lips, turned around and left through the back road. Xu Yuehuai didn't try to stop him at all. She was still afraid that the person behind the scenes was unwilling to come out. With their help, why should she worry about this matter?
