Hearing Su Youzhi say this, Tu Nian put away her sword and promised him that she would not ask for treasures nor take radical revenge.
She lowered her eyes to see the unwillingness on Su Youzhi's face. After a moment, she slowly said, "I want you to remember that from now on, you owe me a sword."
Tu Nian's words, neither light nor heavy, weighed a thousand pounds on Su Youzhi's heart.
If she agreed to this, she would have to be inferior to Tu Nian from then on.
Seeing that his fellow brothers and sisters behind him were still trapped under Chu Qiurong's pressure and unable to move, Su Youzhi was certainly unwilling to accept this, but he also knew that nothing could be accomplished in the current situation.
After several rounds of deliberation, under Tu Nian's cold gaze, she finally gritted her teeth and said, "Okay."
Tu Nian smiled meaningfully and placed a few healing pills in front of her. "We have a gentleman's agreement, Brother Su. Don't break your promise."
Majestic and powerful, Su Youzhi had never seen Tu Nian like this before. His half-open eyes looked at her coldly, making her feel as if she was being stared at by a wild beast.
After they finished speaking, Tu Nian and Chu Qiurong left slowly, leaving Su Youzhi and the people from Yuqing Sect standing there, panicking and at a loss as to what to do.
After a while, a questioner emerged from the crowd. He approached cautiously and whispered, "Junior Sister Youzhi...are we just going to let them go like this?"
"What else can we do if we don't let him go? With our cultivation levels, trying to get an explanation for Senior Brother Song from that person is like hitting a rock with an egg. It's a waste of effort."
Hatefully pushing away the high-quality elixirs left by Tu Nian, Su Youzhi took out a few lower-quality pills from his bag and fed them to Senior Brother Song. He then looked in the direction the two men left, his eyes dark, "But I will not let this matter go like this."
"Since Monk said so, do you have any plans at the moment?"
From a distance, a woman's voice was heard behind him. Su Youzhi turned around and saw two women wearing the Taoist uniforms of Jixuegu walking towards them.
After quickly putting Song An down, she stood up and looked at the two women. Her right hand rested on the hilt of her sword, and she frowned and said, "Why are you two cultivators eavesdropping here instead of going out to train?"
These two people were Lin Qingqing and Ding Rong, who witnessed the whole process in secret. They recognized the position of Yuqing Sect. Lin Qingqing was in a very good mood at the moment.
"You don't need to be so nervous. Even if I did hear something, I would definitely not cause any trouble in front of Master Yuzhe's disciples. The most important thing is."
Taking off the sword from her waist and handing it to Ding Rong, Lin Qingqing stepped forward and said, "If you want to get rid of Tu Nian, I can help you."
For a sword cultivator, a sword is the greatest guarantee of personal safety. Lin Qingqing's removal of her sword at this moment was a sign of great sincerity. Seeing the other party actively show weakness, the hostility of the Yuqing Sect towards them indeed eased considerably.
"We appreciate the monk's kindness, but this is a private matter between my sect and Tu Nian, so it's better not to escalate it to the level of our other sects."
Su Youzhi's attitude softened somewhat, but it was limited to taking her hand off the hilt of the sword. She still did not trust the people of Snow Valley.
After she finished speaking, she called on her fellow disciples to leave. Lin Qingqing watched with a smirk, but didn't try to stop her. She simply said leisurely, "If you can all support yourselves and save me the trouble, that would be great."
"But there's one thing I must inform you of in advance. The man next to her is my second senior brother from the inner sect, a Nascent Soul cultivator. As long as he's around, you won't be able to accomplish anything."
Everyone in Yuqing Sect was suddenly in an uproar.
For most cultivators, the Nascent Soul stage is a level that is unattainable in their lifetime, and the person they saw was only in his early twenties at most, yet he had already reached the Nascent Soul stage?
Su Youzhi had never imagined that Tu Nian, a mere useless spiritual root, could actually reach the level of a powerful Yuanying cultivator. Hiding her shock, she snorted softly and looked at Lin Qingqing, "If what you said is true, your senior brother is already a Yuanying cultivator, how can you help me?"
"As disciples of the Snow Valley, if we encounter danger, Senior Brother will not ignore us."
Ding Rong said this behind Lin Qingqing. Su Youzhi looked over and saw that she was an unremarkable female cultivator with average strength. However, she hit the nail on the head and he understood her meaning immediately.
After pondering for a moment, Su Youzhi looked at the two of them intently, "Why are you helping me?"
Lin Qingqing snorted coldly, "She not only took your things, but also mine. This person is so eloquent and arrogant. We really shouldn't let her back into our sect and corrupt our morals."
At this point, her eyes sternly said, "Brother Su, don't be indecisive."
Clearly seeing the murderous intent flashing across her eyes, Su Youzhi no longer had any concerns. "Since she has already disregarded our old friendship, this is as it should be."
Looking up, the two girls smiled at each other, and everything was said without words.
At the same time, outside the Fushan Cave, in front of a three-meter-long mirror, layers of earth waves suddenly rose up. In the dust, Xiao Yunxiang and Jin Nanfeng stood facing each other, the former with his hair standing on end in anger, and the latter with his hands behind his back, looking calm.
"Master Xiao, you've overstepped your bounds."
Anyone who enters the cave will get more if they are capable. They can compete and learn from each other. Strength is the most important thing.
Unless the person is in mortal danger, he cannot be rescued. This is the rule for entering the Fushan Cave.
The Red Dust Mirror in front of the two was originally used to ensure the safety of the disciples in training. Xiao Yunxiang saw that Su Youzhi was humiliated by Tu Nian, and he said he would seek justice for him no matter what. Jin Nanfeng naturally refused, and took a punch from Xiao Yunxiang.
Seeing that his punch was easily taken by him, Xiao Yunxiang was shocked and even more annoyed. He waved his sleeves and said sternly: "Jin Nanfeng, I am giving you face and only respectfully addressing you as Brother Nanfeng. Don't be so arrogant. If you block me again, I will tear my relationship with Yuqing Sect apart!"
Jin Nanfeng stood at the cave entrance without changing his expression, and said without moving, "Rules are rules. Master Xiao, the disciples of the two sects are still training, so you and I should focus on the business first."
"Don't mention the rules to me!"
Xiao Yunxiang pointed at Chu Qiurong in the Red Dust Mirror and said angrily, "The rules of this trip state that only those with a cultivation level below the Golden Core stage are allowed to enter the cave, yet your sect secretly let people in. Is this considered abiding by the rules?"
Facing his blazing eyes, Jin Nanfeng said calmly, "Qiu Rong was arranged by Master to enter the cave to protect my Fourth Junior Sister. It's a purpose, not a violation of the rules."
"you!"
Xiao Yunxiang saw that he would not be allowed to go on this trip today, so he had no choice but to stand back in front of the Red Dust Mirror. After a while, he pointed at Jin Nanfeng's face and said fiercely: "Junior Sister Youzhi is the only disciple under the tutelage of our sect's Master Yuzhe. If anything goes wrong because of Tu Nian, I will make her pay with her life!"
"If the headmaster is really interested in my fourth junior sister, you might as well come to the sect and have a short visit next time. My master will chat with you."
A foolproof retreat.
After these words were spoken, no matter how resentful Xiao Yunxiang was, his words would be a dud.
The two of them were silent. Jin Nanfeng still had that expression of neither happy nor sad. While looking at the dozen or so disciples of his own sect in the mirror, his eyes kept returning to one place.
Looking at Tu Nian's heartless appearance, he wondered what was going on in his mind.
