The top of Yunwen Mountain.

On a cliff shaped like a spear, the mountain wind was howling with a faint whimpering sound, like crying and complaining.

No Regrets Cliff, where the legend of the origin of the Cloud Pattern Tribe is passed down, is the sacred place of Cloud Pattern Mountain.

At this moment, the two women were standing on the edge of the No Regrets Cliff, side by side, quietly looking at the bottomless valley below.

"Fellow Daoist Qiu, what do you want to tell me?"

The tall woman in a plain white robe with an orchid embroidered on her left shoulder spoke to the petite, cool and beautiful woman beside her.

There were complex emotions in her eyes, including envy, confusion and worry.

She and Qin Gengyun met when they were in the most difficult times. They were not only close friends who helped and supported each other, but also soul mates who supported each other through thick and thin.

But her heart was set on the Great Dao, and Qin Gengyun respected her choice and had never asked her for help when he was looking for a Taoist partner.

But the woman in front of her became Qin Gengyun's wife. They were very loving and affectionate, so she was naturally envious.

Although I am envious, I am not jealous.

Qin Gengyun and I are not destined to be together. Fellow Daoist Qiu is the most suitable person for him. I am happy for both of them.

However, when facing Qiu Zhihe, Mo Xiaolan always felt a little at a loss.

She actually knew that Qiu Zhihe didn't like her. Mo Xiaolan could understand that. Which wife would like her husband's confidante?

This is also what Mo Xiaolan is confused and worried about.

Why did Qiu Zhihe want to talk to her alone? And her shaky appearance at this time always made Mo Xiaolan have a bad feeling.

"Friend Mo."

Mo Xiaolan was in a complicated mood when Qiu Zhihe suddenly said:

"Do you like my husband?"

Mo Xiaolan was stunned, and sighed after a moment:

"Fellow Daoist Qiu, don't worry. Qin Gengyun and I have been close friends for life. I will not do anything that goes beyond the line."

Qiu Zhihe said calmly: "Then can you help me take care of him?"

"ah?"

Mo Xiaolan was startled, but heard Qiu Zhihe continue:

"I'm afraid I can't accompany him in this state. However, he has karmic connections with Zhenyang Sect, Thunder Sword City, Spirit Corpse Mountain, and West Palace. There are countless obstacles ahead. I'm worried that he won't be able to make it."

Mo Xiaolan was silent for a moment, then suddenly smiled:

"It turns out that he went through so many things during the time I was away."

Qiu Zhihe turned to look at her and said seriously: "I have been with him through all these things. There will be many more things and difficulties ahead. I would like to ask you to accompany him and help him through them one by one."

Mo Xiaolan was puzzled: "Fellow Daoist Qiu, with your background, you can always stay with him after your injury is healed. Why did you look for me?"

After the battle with the Chang family and the battle that just forced Ye Xiyue to retreat, Qiu Zhihe has already demonstrated his powerful strength.

This kind of strength is naturally not something that an ordinary cultivator can possess.

Her background must be not ordinary, and having her accompany Qin Gengyun is obviously the best choice.

Qiu Zhihe did not explain and continued, "I accompanied him to the Northern Wasteland. In addition to helping him eradicate the poison, there is another more important thing."

The mountain wind was whimpering, but Qiu Zhihe's light voice went straight into Mo Xiaolan's ears, making her scalp numb:

"I want to help him seize Ye Xiyue and Su Hongling's top-grade spiritual roots!"

Mo Xiaolan stared at Qiu Zhihe blankly, speechless for a long time.

What the other party said was beyond her understanding.

Can spiritual roots be taken away?

Even if you can, Ye Xiyue and Su Hongling are top geniuses and fairies of the world. They have Zhenyang Sect and Leijian City behind them. Can you just take away their spiritual roots?

Suddenly, Mo Xiaolan opened her eyes wide: "So you deliberately lured Ye Xiyue here?"

Qiu Zhihe said calmly: "Ye Xiyue has repeatedly sent people to investigate me and my husband. In addition, Si Minglan and Xiaoxue have turned against her. It is only a matter of time before she comes to Beihuang in person. I just didn't expect her to come so soon."

"What about Su Hongling?"

"You'll know when the time comes." Qiu Zhihe smiled.

Mo Xiaolan felt her breathing quicken a little. This matter was really too unbelievable.

"If Qin Gengyun really took away Ye Xiyue and Su Hongling's spiritual roots, the two of them..."

Qiu Zhihe said in a cold voice: "They will die in the Northern Wasteland."

"Friend Mo Dao, I will take care of this matter, you don't have to worry about it. Are you willing to do what I just said?"

The two of them fell into silence. Strong winds blew from the No Regrets Cliff, picking up dead leaves that fluttered between the two women, as if to disturb the girls' thoughts.

After a long while, Noila Mo said seriously: “I can’t do it.”

This time it was Qiu Zhihe's turn to be stunned: "Why?"

Mo Xiaolan smiled bitterly: "Fellow Daoist Qiu, do you know the way Qin Gengyun looks at you? I have never seen that before. He loves you so deeply. If you really disappeared suddenly, he would not go anywhere but desperately look for you. I can't replace you, and I don't want to replace you."

Qiu Zhihe looked at her with a hint of appreciation in her eyes and a smile on her lips:

"I will give him a perfect excuse and a reasonable farewell. My path is difficult, and I don't want to drag him down. His personality is suitable for quiet cultivation, not for fleeing with me. You are devoted to the Tao, and you two can go further together."

In fact, even if the injuries in her body did not flare up, after eradicating the poison from Qin Gengyun, Qiu Zhihe would find an excuse to leave so that Qin Gengyun would forget about her.

Then, according to her arrangement, he entered Zhenyang Sect. By that time, Ye Xiyue had died. With his strength, he should be able to quickly replace Ye Xiyue and become an important figure in Zhenyang Sect.

After she recovers her power and kills all three sects to take revenge, she will let Qin Gengyun kill her.

In this way, he will be able to ascend to the position of the head of the Zhenyang Sect, gain control of sufficient resources, and have the hope of ascending to become an immortal in the future.

But she has never thought about ascending to heaven. The eighteen levels of hell are her destination.

During this process, Qin Gengyun naturally needs a loyal and powerful partner, and Mo Xiaolan is the best candidate.

I always felt that I could still spend some time with him, but now we suddenly have to separate. For a moment, I always feel that my arrangements were not detailed enough and my thoughts were not thorough enough.

Just find enough help for him.

Even if she was really no longer alive, Mo Xiaolan would be the most suitable person to be his wife.

More suitable than tassels.

"Fellow Daoist Qiu."

Mo Xiaolan's clear voice interrupted Qiu Zhihe's thoughts.

"I promise you, I will stay with him, but..."

Noila Mo's eyes were clear, calm and firm: "Just as a confidant and friend, nothing else. I will stay with him until you come back."

Qiu Zhihe looked at her and suddenly smiled: "I understand why my husband became a close friend with you."

Noila Mo also smiled: "I also understand why Qin Gengyun is so devoted to you."

"It's just that, Fellow Daoist Qiu, how are you going to say goodbye to him so that he won't be sad and obsessed?"

Qiu Zhihe was silent for a moment and looked down at the bottomless cliff.

"I will give him hope so that he can move forward with peace of mind."
