Chapter 75 A Fool Finds a Fool
Ye Wuluo's red robes were stained with even deeper layers of blood, making his face appear even paler.
"That's not what I meant..."
His voice was hoarse and weak, even carrying a hint of inexplicable prayer.
"Then what do you mean?" Mu Jianjian slowly recalled what happened at the cliff, a mocking smile appearing on her face. "Leaving aside the fact that you had Lan Yi kill me, after all, you were eager to avenge Tao Xian—"
She was angry; he was willing to avenge the brainless Tao Xian, but he was unwilling to reach out and save Yueyue.
"Jianjian, I didn't!" Ye Wuluo's hand subconsciously tugged at the girl's sleeve, but she shook him off. The corner of her clothes scraped against his wound, causing a painful friction.
Mu Jianjian looked at the man who was clearly injured but refused to take the medicine, and had no intention of persuading him.
"At that time, Tao Xian asked the Grand Elder to send the message into the secret realm. I didn't want to get involved. Jianjian, can you believe me? As soon as I leave the secret realm, I will kill them and avenge you."
Ye Wuluo's fragile, low-pitched voice echoed in the dark room. Her black hair, which had been tied up with a hairpin, was now disheveled from the fight. With her misty peach blossom eyes, she looked even more enchanting.
“No need. I just want to tell you that Yueyue has suffered a lot,” Mu Jianjian said earnestly. “You remember, when Yueyue was with you in the outer layer of the secret realm, she used a secret technique and lost a finger.”
This is the original plot of the book. At that time, she had not yet met the two of them, so she should not have changed the plot.
"I remember." Ye Wulu lowered his head, a flash of pain in his eyes.
That was the second time the two met in the secret realm. Sang Wanyue, who had just entered the Foundation Establishment stage, was facing a demon beast whose cultivation was close to that of a Core Formation cultivator. He was very curious about how this woman, whose true energy was about to be exhausted, would deal with it.
Then I saw her resolutely twist off the fingers of her left hand, use a secret technique to kill the monster, and finally fall into the long river and fall into a coma.
"She broke three fingers when she hit Cai Chu." Mu Jianjian's voice drifted into Ye Wuluo's ears, and he even felt a little dazed.
Three fingers?
How much pain will the baby experience...?
An overwhelming sense of suffocation washed over him, and Ye Wulu forced a smile that looked more like a grimace. "Then... Jianjian, what about you?"
"Me?" Mu Jianjian noticed the thoughtful expression on the man's face and a mischievous glint appeared in her eye. "Do you really want to know?"
Ye Wulu nodded stiffly.
"Back then, when I faced Lan Yi at the cliff, my injured right arm was already in a lot of pain. Later, when I went to the cave to find Yueyue and faced Cai Chu, I was almost devoured by the humanoid Gu he had made. My right arm was crippled, my whole body was poisoned, and I went blind."
The more casually Mu Jianjian spoke, the deeper Ye Wuluo's regret and pain became.
That's all.
He strode after the girl.
No wonder...
Why would Xiaoyue say that about him? Besides his physical condition and identity, what else does he have?
The honors and accolades he had received since childhood had blinded him, making him believe he could see everything clearly. However, he became impatient and stubborn, and he couldn't understand his own heart.
Mu Jianjian added, "The higher one's cultivation level is in the inner layer of the secret realm, the greater the pressure on the cultivator. Yueyue carried me to the Zhu Pavilion step by step like this."
At the beginning, the sandstorm was raging and the noise was deafening. The most memorable time was when we encountered a demon beast halfway through our journey. Yueyue had just taken out the demon beast's core when a group of cultivators arrived.
Knowing that their cultivation was no match for Yueyue, the three of them grabbed her, who was already unable to move her limbs, and used her to threaten her.
You must choose between beast pills and your life.
At that time, Mu Jianjian was in a daze and couldn't breathe because her neck was being choked. She saw the woman get up and cleanly flick the arms of the two of them until they were numb, then landed beside her, cut off the hand that was holding her, and then hugged her.
I want them all.
Sang Wanyue said this, her hand holding her trembling but not shaking.
Mu Jianjian snapped out of her reverie, her gaze toward Ye Wuluo growing increasingly disdainful.
Without comparison, there is no harm.
Her words contained many loopholes regarding her identity and the reason for coming to the secret realm, but judging from Ye Wuluo's stiff walking posture and lifeless expression, it was clear that she was too preoccupied to think about it carefully.
It's pretty good.
As the two hurried deeper into the dark palace, one after the other, they finally caught a glimpse of a woman's back.
Mu Jianjian instinctively waved with delight, "Yueyue!"
——
At the very front of the last hall of the Dark Palace, a groove runs horizontally through a stone door covered with runes, shimmering with dark purple light.
A handsome man dressed in a black robe stood in front of the recess, about to put the hidden scroll he was holding into it, seemingly unaware of the grappling hooks that were rapidly approaching him from behind.
Just a second before the grappling hook was about to pierce the back of his neck, the man in white casually raised his hand and pinched the hook in mid-air, then slowly turned around to look at the man in dark blue in front of him and chuckled.
“If Master Jin wants something, he can just say it directly instead of doing these shady things.”
The man was dressed in dark blue clothes, with a strip of cloth covering half of his face, revealing only his eyes. He had only a small braid hanging down his chest. His hands were bound with heavy chains. He tried to pull back the chain after it was blocked by a hook, but found that the other side was not giving him a chance.
Upon hearing the other person's words, a look of surprise flashed across his eyes, but he quickly regained his composure. "Chi Wenqing, what do you know?"
Why was he able to easily break the array of the pavilion in the middle of the lake, and also know his own identity?
Logically speaking, only that person should know his identity!
“Master Jin, it’s not a good habit to be so defiant in questioning others when you’re being held hostage,” Chi Wenqing said slowly and deliberately.
Jinluo Fan, seeing that his identity had been exposed, naturally made no further attempt to hide it. He sneered, "I never expected that a remnant of Yingzhou would have kept a low profile for over a decade. What would your master think if he knew about your current cultivation level?"
He'll probably get another layer of bad reputation on him!
"Master Jin should think carefully about how to get back from here safely."
Chi Wenqing thought of his junior sister's smiling face and turned his gaze to the man's dark, endless back.
His Jianjian is really disobedient; not only did she risk her life alone again, but she also got together with that Ye Wuluo.
Even knowing that Mu Jianjian's body had long since been replaced by a different soul and that she was no longer Ye Wuluo's childhood sweetheart, Chi Wenqing still couldn't help but feel a pang of sadness, and his seemingly gentle eyes flashed with endless killing intent.
"Hahahaha," Jinluo Fan laughed loudly, completely oblivious to the awkward atmosphere. "Since you know my identity, why don't you understand soul swapping? And if you know about soul swapping, how could you possibly harm me?"
Chi Wenqing remained silent, but still wore a faint smile.
Jinluo Fan actually saw mockery in his expression. He said angrily, "Aren't you afraid that the first thing my original self will do after I get out and regain my identity is to expose your deeds and turn you into a Buddhist dust after your reputation is ruined?"
The evil deeds of the former Demon Lord Chi Qiong of Yingzhou are known throughout the world. There is no need for him to smear him further. He can easily put him in a position of being unrighteous and immoral with just a few words.
After the disciples in the same shrine swapped souls, he entered the secret realm with a body of lower cultivation level. Although there were some limitations, even if this body died, it would not affect the fate of his soul.
The more Jinluo Fan looked at the man in front of him, the more he felt that he was a very good material for making Buddhist dust. After killing the man, he would burn him into ashes in a specially made furnace of the Golden Crow Temple, and then grind him into Buddhist dust. This would be a superior end for this remnant of Yingzhou.
Chi Wenqing sighed helplessly, "I thought Qu You would find someone smart."
He should have known that a fool would only find fools.
