Chapter 57: The chaos wasn't enough, more than that, he wanted more and more...
Hearing this, Luo Chuan remained calm and composed. He lowered his eyes and let the poison in his heart spread freely.
This spiritual beast is rare in a thousand years, but his real purpose of coming here is not entirely for this.
Of course, if his goal cannot be achieved, he can just take the beast away.
But he also knew that if he revealed his intentions and tried his best to achieve them, he would probably get nothing, especially since this special spiritual beast, which was rare in a thousand years, was the natal spiritual beast of the daughter of Xu Yi, the head of Kunlun.
Xu Yi's daughter, Xu Xing'er, is the savior predicted by Tianji Pavilion.
He is the only combined cultivator in this world besides him.
Thinking of this, his throat felt dry and he licked his lips with his tongue.
The woman's voice came from the formation. Among the cultivators present, she was the only one whose cultivation level he could not identify. It must be Xu Xing'er without a doubt.
But Luo Chuan acted oblivious, remaining calm and composed. "Unfounded words are like thorns on the tip of the tongue. Distorting the facts invites trouble. Everyone knows that the disciples of Yuqiu are all law-abiding and diligent in their cultivation. Who would be so unscrupulous as to speak so falsely? Aren't you afraid of getting into trouble by twisting right and wrong like this?"
Xu Xingxing's words were definitely not without reason.
She was anxious to find the spiritual beast and went to many places. Once, she heard Yuqiu and the Book of Beasts responded, telling her that there was a spiritual beast here.
Based on Qingzhou's experience, there should be more than just one or two places that can be described in this way by the Book of Beasts.
But Yuqiu was too far away, and she was alone, so she didn't dare to go there rashly, so she asked Gu Nuo about the place.
After hearing this, Gu Nuo stopped her directly.
Tell her that this place is not like before. There are all kinds of people there, including evil cultivators. It is common to trap people and use them as furnaces. She should not go there without permission.
She said she was a combination.
Gu Nuo was very contemptuous: Your realm is high, but you have a pig brain. The evil cultivators have many tricks. Once they poison you, you will become a cauldron whose magic power is extracted. By then, you won’t even remember your own name, and you still want to go looking for beasts?
She felt insulted and self-aware, and she wilted, so she flatteringly invited him to go with her, but Gu Nuo decisively refused on the grounds that he was busy.
Xu Xingxing has always been good at making up stories based on hearsay, and she is also good at making trouble and making unreasonable demands. She will never lack excuses to accuse someone of a crime.
What's more, she was holding a card in her hand.
"Follow the rules and practice diligently?"
Xu Xingxing laughed heartily. "Aren't you afraid of being struck by lightning for speaking so bluntly? If Yuqiu is truly as rigid as you claim, then its master should be a righteous and kind person. But that's just baffling to me. Putting aside your cowardice and fear before battle, how could Luo Quanci, a descendant of the Luo family under your care, do such a ruthless act right under your nose?"
As soon as she finished speaking, she heard Xiao Hei's breathing stop. Before the spiritual power in his body lost control, she reached back and accurately grabbed his hand. She gently hooked his little finger with her finger and comforted him in her heart:
"Don't be afraid, I lied to him. Everything I said later about Luo Quanci was a lie. Don't believe a single word of it."
The warm and soft touch of his palm softened Yuan's heart for the first time in a long time. He was a little dazed, afraid that it was a dream, so he held the hand tighter.
The owner of the hand seemed to sense his uneasiness and scratched his palm again, then turned his hand restlessly several times in his palm. After finding the right position, he inserted his jade-like fingers into his fingers one by one. Then, the two hands, one big and one small, were clasped together tightly, palms against palms, as if they could never be separated.
Fingers clasped together.
It seemed as if Wei Yuan had forgotten how to breathe, and his heart began to jump with joy.
His expression was dull, his limbs were stiff, he was completely unaware of the severe pain in his body, and had completely forgotten the tearing headache. Only the touch in his hands was alive, and it became clearer and clearer.
We have held hands like this before, why is the feeling so strong now?
It was so strong that he didn't know what to do and his mind was in turmoil.
It was so strong that he could hardly control himself and wanted to hold the woman in his arms again.
Just hugging?
It’s not enough, it’s not enough, he wants more and more.
He wanted to lock her up tightly and not let her leave at all, so even clothes would become an obstacle.
He wanted to see her naked, to be closely connected with her, to kiss her lips, to bite her tongue, to lick every inch of her skin, to fill every gap in her body, to let her be covered with his scent, to possess her completely, to invade her totally, forever and ever, and never to be separated again.
His stars belong only to him.
He looked at the woman's profile, her hair, her eyelashes, her nose, her red lips, every inch, every millimeter, until his eyes ached, but he was reluctant to blink.
Stars, stars.
My star.
My star.
When he suddenly heard the name Luo Quanci, a hint of viciousness finally flashed in Luo Chuan's calm eyes.
This brat, it would be fine if he just played with those mortals on weekdays, but he was so ignorant that he reached out to the female cultivators of Kunlun. If he hadn't seen how much suffering Luo Quanci suffered in his childhood, he would have killed him long ago.
Fortunately, because he intervened in time, Kunlun didn't find any evidence. So he said in a deep voice, "The Immortal Lord has not only tarnished the reputation of my Yuqiu, but also destroyed my second son's reputation after his death. He is already dead, reduced to ashes. Doesn't the Immortal Lord know the principle of respecting the dead?"
"Haha," Xu Xingxing tightened his grip on Xiao Hei's hand. "Ruining Luo Quanci's reputation? As the leader of Yuqiu, you don't manage your sect very well, but you're a master at lying. Aren't you disgusted by what you said?"
Luo Yuancheng broke free and rushed out of the carriage, pointing at her from a distance and cursing, "You bitch! How dare you insult my son like that? You're so cruel! I think you're in cahoots with that vicious dog!"
"You're the cheap one! You're the cheap one, and your whole family is cheap. It's because of a father like you that they raised a scum like Luo Quanci!" When it came to scolding people, Xu Xingxing rarely lost. Then, she took a deep breath and shouted, "If it weren't for my higher realm, Luo Quanci wouldn't be able to do anything to me. I would have been tortured to death by now!"
As soon as these words were spoken, not only Luo Yuancheng, but also Xu Yi and Luo Chuan were stunned on the ground. All the cultivators present were silent, looking at the woman in the field.
Luo Chuan cast a look at Luo Yuancheng, murderous intent flashed in his eyes, but was immediately suppressed.
Without caring about the stunned expressions of the crowd, Xu Xingxing only felt the pain of Xiao Hei holding her hand. She comforted them again in her heart: "I lied to them. I will explain it to you later. Don't worry and don't say anything."
Wei Yuan suppressed the worries and doubts in his heart and just looked at her quietly, looking quite obedient.
Xu Xingxing's heart was inexplicably poked, and she secretly scratched the back of his hand with her fingertips.
Yuan's hands trembled due to the sudden itch, and his heart also began to itch. He felt that even in this killing formation, he was very happy and comfortable.
Why, why is it so easy to be happy as long as she is around?
Xu Yi spoke, breaking the silence: "Xing'er, what nonsense are you talking about!"
"I'm not talking nonsense, ask Fang Zhiming!" Xu Xingxing said seriously.
Fang Zhiming was stunned for a moment when his name was suddenly called.
?????
? ? Who am I and where am I?
Seeing everyone looking at him, he quickly recalled what Xu Xingxing had just said in the sound transmission talisman. He glanced at the woman in the formation, who was staring at him with a serious look. He shuddered, then inexplicably understood. He cleared his throat and began to make up a story, "It really happened. It happened a few days ago... My senior sister told me. She was too flustered at the time, so her account wasn't clear. After she finished, she specifically told me not to reveal anything... That's why I kept my mouth shut."
After saying that, he looked at Xu Xingxing, and when he saw her blink affirmatively, he breathed a sigh of relief.
He met Xu Yi's cold eyes again and shrank his neck in fear.
Qin Feng beside him suddenly said with a fierce look on his face, "How dare this pervert attack Senior Sister? If I had known this would happen, I would have killed him with my sword when I investigated!"
Xu Yi's face was also slightly angry, but after suppressing it for a moment, he asked in a deep voice, "You should know that my sect is investigating this matter, why didn't you tell me?"
Xu Xingxing had been feeling unhappy since she arrived here, but now that she had the chance, she immediately burst into tears, her sincerity so deep that she almost believed it was true.
"As a woman, I was molested like this by a villain. What can I say? How dare I say anything? If Zhiming hadn't just happened to tell me, I would have taken this matter to my grave rather than tell anyone else a word."
"Then why did you say it in front of so many people?" Monk Yi Yuqiu questioned, "Are you making it up again?"
"again?"
Xu Xingxing wiped away her tears fiercely. "Putting aside the fact that I'm a woman and my reputation is so important, which of my previous statements was fabricated? Are you, Yuqiu, afraid of death, or are you using humans as cauldrons? You didn't come when the Ten Thousand Demon Cave was disturbed, and you ignored the demons that secretly gathered. Now that the spirit beasts are being punished, you run away faster than anyone else. What else could this be if not harbouring evil intentions? Don't tell me you came all the way here just to see Kunlun strangle the demons! If that were the case, why did you bring so many people? What's the purpose? Are you here to challenge Kunlun's authority? To seize the top spot in this immortal land?"
"I'm speaking out this story today to tear the hypocritical face of your Lord of Jade Hill apart! It's not your turn to witness this excitement. Even if Xiao Hei is an unforgivable criminal, it's not your turn to shout for justice here!"
Luo Chuan, who had been silent the entire time, suddenly caught on to something wrong: "So, Xu Xianjun is saying that you were the one who ordered this beast?"
Xu Xingxing expected him to ask this question and sneered: "Lord Luoqiu has not been to the Central Plains for a long time and he must not understand what people say. What I mean is,
"All of this was started by Luo Quanci. As the lord of Yuqiu and the ancestor of the Luo family, shouldn't Lord Luoqiu also bear some responsibility?"
Luo Chuan was silent, his face covered by a thin veil, and his expression could not be seen clearly. After a long moment, he seemed to chuckle:
"This is all your one-sided account, even if it's true. Now you're alive and well, and Ci'er is dead. What responsibility do you want me to bear? The tens of thousands of people in Guicheng didn't die because of me, nor were they killed by Ci'er. It was your spirit beast Huo Dou who did it. You're being so passionate here, but you're actually helping Huo Dou escape responsibility."
"I am alive, but so many people were tortured to death by you that time."
Xu Xingxing looked at Xu Yi with a sad face. "This has happened, the sin has been committed. I am not trying to absolve Xiao Hei of his guilt. Xiao Hei was plotting against me when he was venting his anger. He lost his mind and committed such a serious mistake. I am willing to bear the punishment today with Xiao Hei! But!"
She changed her mind and said, "Now that the Lord of Yuqiu doesn't admit his crime of shielding and protecting others, can't I just ask him to get out of here right away? Even if I have to be punished, I don't want to be watched by such a disgusting person!"
