Chapter 57
It’s Jiang Li.
Seeing Jiang Li, the several Zuiyin Sect disciples who were originally chattering around Yu Tai suddenly seemed to be poisoned and silenced, and all stepped aside.
Yu Tai raised her eyebrows.
Interesting, it seems Jiang Li doesn't have a very good relationship with the disciples of his own sect.
Jiang Li walked in front of Yu Tai without looking around, as if he didn't see the disciple of Zuiyin Sect at all.
Although they are from the same sect, he seems to be more familiar with Yu Tai.
"The taste is much lighter." Jiang Li said.
Everyone else was puzzled by his words, but Yu Tai seemed to suddenly understand what he was saying.
When Jiang Li first met her, he said she smelled good, but when he saw Shu Li later, he said that his scent was stronger.
This time when we met, he said that the smell on his body had faded.
The only possible reason is...
She hasn't replenished her vital energy in the past few days.
Jiang Li, can actually smell the scent of righteousness?
Although Yu Tai's mind was in a state of confusion, she remained expressionless. She simply said indifferently, "Tomorrow it will be you and me fighting. Are you 'ready'?"
Jiang Li nodded: "You are quite skilled, I am looking forward to it."
Just as he finished speaking, someone called Jiang Li's name not far away, and Xiao Xin ran over.
When she saw Yu Tai, she froze noticeably for a moment before greeting her, "Sister Yu Tai."
Hearing this name, Jiang Li raised his eyebrows.
This should be the first time that Jiang Li looked down at Xiao Xin seriously since he met her.
Looking at the handsome face so close to her, she didn't know why she felt a little dizzy but also a little resistant.
Ah, Sister Yutai wouldn't misunderstand anything, right?
"Jiang... Jiang Li, what's wrong?" She forced a smile that she thought was very obedient.
Jiang Li said, "You are the same age as her, and your birthday is even older than hers. Why do you call her sister?"
Xiao Xin: “…?”
Was I blind before? Who is this straight guy in front of me?
At this moment, the image of Jiang Li in Xiao Xin's mind, who was cold and taciturn but gentle at heart, collapsed in an instant.
Yu Taigao glanced at Jiang Li.
This person actually knows my birthday?
"Something happened, the elder is calling you..." Xiao Xin's face darkened.
There were faint sounds of sneers coming from all around. It turned out that Jiang Li from Zuiyin Sect usually spoke to female cultivators like this.
Hearing the elder's name, Jiang Li frowned slightly, said to Yu Tai, "See you tomorrow," and turned and left.
Xiao Xin said goodbye to Yu Tai awkwardly and left in a hurry. She seemed to want to say hello, but something important held her back.
When the other Zuiyin Sect disciples heard the word "accident", they hurriedly followed, but each of them remembered to say goodbye to Yu Tai before leaving.
Yu Tai was like a kindergarten teacher, sending these problem children away one by one.
The way the onlookers looked at her changed again.
Seriously, Sister Tai, are you really not a spy sent from the upper realm to the middle realm?
It's okay for other people, but why does Jiang Li seem to be very familiar with you?!
...
Jiang Li thought that the 'accident' the elder was talking about was probably some boring thing, but the moment he saw the other's expression, he suddenly realized something.
"Something happened in the sect?"
Although he really wanted to praise Jiang Li's sharpness, the elder was in no mood to do so.
He turned his gaze to Li You, who was still confused about what was happening in the crowd: "Li You, Elder Li is in trouble."
Li You was stunned for a moment when his name was called. He understood every word the elder said, but his brain seemed unable to keep up with the reaction speed.
It was not until his companion's unskilled words of comfort rang in his ears that he finally digested those words.
The name Elder Li was not unfamiliar to him, but the name he was more familiar with was—
'Father'.
The monks of Zuiyin Sect seldom say the word "death". They usually say it means something happened to someone.
That's probably because the person is gone.
The disciples present were basically all Li You’s friends, and were also very familiar with Elder Li.
It was not the first time for the young boys and girls to come into contact with death, but the paleness and powerlessness of the living monks around them who suddenly died were unfamiliar and terrifying to them.
Jiang Li should be the calmest among the group.
Considering Li You's feelings, the elder took Jiang Li aside and said, "Someone died in the sect. It was done by a demon cultivator."
Hearing the word "within the sect", Jiang Li raised his eyebrows, and the first thing that came to his mind was: "There are demon cultivators lurking in the Zuiyin Sect."
The elder said with a complicated expression, "We can't rule out this possibility, but according to the news, Elder Li was playing chess with the Sect Leader the night he was in trouble. The Sect Leader was simply out handling an important matter, and upon his return, Elder Li was in trouble."
Jiang Li became interested: "Did Elder Li have an accident with the Sect Master?"
This is even more incredible.
This evil cultivator chose to attack Elder Li right under the nose of the Sect Leader. What's the difference between this and giving the Zuiyin Sect a hard slap in the face?
"This matter has been kept secret, but there is a risk of it leaking out. Tomorrow, after the duel ends, you will quickly return to the upper realm."
"The situation is so serious, is tomorrow's fight still necessary?" Jiang Li asked.
The elder looked at Jiang Li for a long time, his eyes flashing with sharpness: "Yes."
Jiang Li sneered in his heart, but nodded: "Got it."
Before taking the dazed Li You and the others away, the elder said one last thing to Jiang Li: "Jiang Li, it was the sect that found you."
So you'd better be obedient and repay the kindness.
Jiang Li, who understood these words, stood where he was and watched them leave.
Xiao Xin did not follow them, but stayed here.
"Tomorrow, could you please not attack Yu Tai?" Xiao Xin said gritting his teeth.
Jiang Li glanced at her in surprise: "Aren't you deeply in love with me?"
Xiao Xin widened his eyes.
This person actually knows everything!
"You...you...you" Xiao Xin stuttered and said "you" three times in a row, and couldn't say a complete sentence for a long time.
Jiang Li gave her an impatient look, then turned and walked away ruthlessly.
Looking at his back, Xiao Xin suddenly felt dizzy.
I didn’t notice it before, but just now, why did I feel that Jiang Li’s back looked a bit like Sister Yu Tai?
It's also strange. Putting aside the difference in gender, there is no similarity between the two people at all.
Thinking that he might have fainted from anger, Xiao Xin stomped his feet and bit his lip.
Should I go and remind Sister Yu Tai?
Jiang Li has a fickle personality. He doesn't seem to have any bad intentions towards Sister Yu Tai, but who knows what he's really thinking.
Not long ago, Xiao Xin, who thought Jiang Li was cold on the outside but gentle on the inside, had completely become biased towards him without realizing it.
