"Impossible, how could Liuli possibly force out someone's soul?" Dai Xingyu stepped forward to speak with Wei Qinghe.
Wei Qinghe frowned and glanced at Dai Xingyu. When Dai Xingyu met Wei Qinghe's cool eyes, his heart started beating faster than when they first met.
"What do you mean 'impossible'? I didn't say that Liuli forced out Xinghui Daozun's soul."
Dai Xingyu thought for a moment, "You mean, that old thief Xinghui's soul left his body, and then Liuli took him with her to escape?"
Upon hearing this, his fellow disciples lowered their eyes and began to recall what had happened before.
The fourth senior brother stepped forward and said, "Liuli gave Xinghui the old thief so many pills that he may have already woken up. He was just pretending to be asleep because we were there, and then he and Liuli plotted to escape when we weren't paying attention."
Wei Qinghe thought so too, but she didn't expect that Xinghui Daozun's disciples would now call him "Old Thief Xinghui" so often, as if they hadn't retained any of the master-disciple relationship they once had.
When Xinghui Daozun searched the soul that day, he must have retained a trace of his consciousness. Everyone underestimated Xinghui Daozun.
The other fellow disciples also said angrily, "That's right, it must be like that. So many pills, they were all given to that old thief Xinghui as if they were free. Even if he was about to die, he could be saved."
For a moment, no one could understand why they were upset about the loss of the pills, or whether they were angry that Xinghui Daozun and Liuli had escaped.
Wei Qinghe immediately took out a talisman and folded it into a paper crane. Dai Xingyu suddenly thought of something and awkwardly called out, "Wei Qinghe, I think I might know where they are."
“I will lead you to them, to lessen my sins and set me free.”
Wei Qinghe merely curled her lips slightly. What Dai Xingyu could think of, she could naturally think of as well, and might even think of it before Dai Xingyu.
"No need."
Seeing Wei Qinghe about to leave, Dai Xingyu shouted, "Wei Qinghe, are you really going to hold a grudge about what happened back then? I was just misled by Liuli and her father. Now I know I was wrong. Can't you forgive me just this once?"
"After everything we've been through, I know I was wrong. Once I get out, we'll make up, we'll finish our wedding, and from now on, we'll live a good life together every day..."
Wei Qinghe rolled her eyes at Dai Xingyu with annoyance. "Shut up, you idiot. Don't pollute my ears with your delusions."
"I have no relation to you whatsoever. It was just a joke made by an elder back then. Dai Xingyu, wake up! If you dare to pester me again, I will show no mercy!"
After Wei Qinghe finished speaking, she flicked her finger, and a stream of spiritual energy flew out and hit Dai Xingyu's chest directly. After passing through his body, the spiritual energy did not stop and continued to penetrate into the wall, spreading rapidly from the hole.
Dai Xingyu staggered backward and fell to the ground, blood streaming from his mouth.
The nimble figure gradually moved away, soon becoming blurry and disappearing from sight.
At this moment, Dai Xingyu felt a sharp pain in his heart. Although the wounds that pierced his body hurt, they were nothing compared to the pain in his heart.
It was a joke made by an elder back then.
That's right. That's exactly what he said to Wei Qinghe when he went back so smugly.
Why does it seem so ridiculous now?
Perhaps he always had Wei Qinghe in his heart, but he was blinded by the uncertain future before him at the time.
But Wei Qinghe, I can't forget you at all.
He dared not say it.
After watching them leave, the fourth senior brother pulled a few junior brothers aside and whispered, "Could it be that Liuli took the soul of that old thief Xinghui to the Nanfeng Sect?"
The few of them knew that the Nanfeng Sect represented a spiritual vein.
They clearly all had a share in the spiritual vein, but now they're locked up here while Liuli and that old thief Xinghui are digging for spirit stones.
The more he thought about it, the more frustrated and angry he became, wishing they would also go to the Nanfeng Sect immediately.
They wanted to tell the people in the city lord's mansion this news, but they were afraid that the matter of the spiritual vein would be leaked.
The fewer people who know about it, the more spirit stones will be left behind; if too many people know, they won't see a trace of it when they leave.
...
At that time!
Inside the cave next to the Nanfeng Sect.
Dai Xingyue's body crashed heavily to the ground, her head hitting a rock and immediately creating a bloody hole from which blood flowed freely.
"Liuli, you shameless woman, how dare you show your face here..."
Dai Xingyue covered her bleeding wound and let out a sharp scream.
"You slut, I'll fight you to the death! You shameless whore who sleeps with anyone..."
Liuli's expression was strange. She snorted coldly, making a sound that was both male and female.
It turns out that Xinghui Daozun's soul has been attached to Liuli's body.
However, it did not devour or force Liuli's soul to a certain place, allowing him to control his body alone.
Liuli gripped the neck of the increasingly weakened sect leader's wife with one hand.
"Dai Xingyue, do you think you're anything good? Look at your ugly face, how dare you covet the Moon-Touching Daoist."
"And what kind of law-abiding person are you? Even after coming to my Azure Sword Sect, you're still flirting with everyone, not even sparing the kitchen helpers."
The sect leader's wife slapped Liuli's hand hard, even leaving a bloody wound on the back of Liuli's hand.
"You monster, let me go, let me go!"
Hearing two voices startled Dai Xingyue, as she had never encountered anything like this before.
She hurriedly headed deeper into the cave.
"My dear daughter, come back, come back, you can't..."
The sect leader's wife and Dai Xingyue have been here for several months, searching for the spiritual vein every day, but they have not found it yet.
