Minghua remained silent, and Long Yunzhi almost forgot about the existence of this terrifying person covered in wormholes.
Upon hearing the sound, I turned around abruptly. Now that I was close enough, I could see countless worms wriggling in the numerous wormholes on her exposed skin.
This kind of person still likes someone and hopes to receive Qing Xuanzi's love.
Let alone Qing Xuanzi, even a blind person would find it hard to speak or lay a hand on such a person.
"I am the daughter of Immortal Venerable Yinghui, how dare you disobey me!"
Long Yunzhi wouldn't listen to her. "I can't interfere in matters concerning the steward."
"How are you? Do you need any help?"
He suddenly remembered Wei Qinghe's instructions, and he looked at Qian with concern, wanting to help Minghua up.
In reality, a tampered talisman was silently affixed to Minghua's back.
The talisman flashed with a faint light, then the runes disappeared, and the talisman paper floated down, vanishing naturally before hitting the ground.
Everything happened so fast that not only Minghua couldn't notice it, but even Long Yunzhi hadn't seen it clearly yet.
He even doubted that the talisman was effective.
"Aren't you afraid of me?" Minghua looked at Long Yunzhi with a surprised expression.
Those around her were terrified when they saw her like this.
Actually, she disliked her appearance very much, but there was nothing she could do. She had a special constitution and had started cultivating Gu techniques when she was a child and didn't understand anything.
By the time she felt regret and fear, it was already too late.
During that dark period of her life, she was with Qing Xuanzi, who was being groomed to be the successor to the sect leader.
One keeps company with insects, the other with corpses.
The two could be said to have grown up together since childhood. She originally thought that Qing Xuanzi understood her and knew her hardships and helplessness.
But Qing Xuanzi's attitude towards her was always so cold, and she knew all too well that Qing Xuanzi disliked her.
However, her father needs her offspring as a new heir, so she needs to choose a trustworthy person as her husband within the Jade Palace.
Qing Xuanzi became the only choice in her mind.
But at this moment, she saw Long Yunzhi's worry and his lack of disdain, and it was as if a string in her heart suddenly snapped.
She suddenly stopped using her powers, and her exposed skin gradually improved.
Long Yunzhi watched Minghua change as if by magic, and thought the illusion was wonderful.
"Since you're working so hard, why force yourself? I don't think the sect leader cares about you much at all."
Minghua's already red eyes were filled with tears.
“How could I not know that he doesn’t care about me? Even if he reluctantly pays attention to me, it’s all for a purpose. He won’t even fool my father.” Minghua let Long Yunzhi help her up.
...
Wei Qinghe followed Qing Xuanzi into his palace.
It was still bustling, but it seemed lifeless.
The yin energy is heavier than anywhere else.
Qing Xuanzi clutched his chest and sat down on the stone bench, pouring himself a cup of tea.
"Did you enjoy today's joke? Now, say what you have to say."
Wei Qinghe played with the hairpin in her hand. "Actually, there's not much to say. Although I don't like you, I can help you."
Qing Xuanzi seemed not to believe him and quickly poured himself another cup of tea and drank it down.
“Qing Xuanzi, I will not compete with you for the position of Palace Master. I can even help you overthrow the Ancestor and give you true freedom.”
Wei Qinghe lifted his robe and sat up.
Click!
Qing Xuanzi crushed the teacup in his hand.
A look of fear flashed in his eyes, and his face was full of doubt.
How could he possibly believe such words coming from Qingyao's mouth?
“All along, neither you nor Minghua wanted to follow his plan. Although you are the head of Qingyu Palace, you spend your days with corpses, practicing techniques that you yourself despise, and you still have to do whatever he wants you to do.”
Wei Qinghe previously thought that Qing Xuanzi's attitude towards Minghua might be because Minghua practiced Gu techniques.
Qing Xuanzi's indifference just now might mean he didn't want Minghua to find Yongnian Tianzun at all.
If she doesn't look for anyone, she won't be distracted.
It would be difficult for one person to overthrow Qingyu Palace; it would take a long time.
However, if Qing Xuanzi is persuaded to defect, things will become much simpler.
As for Qing Xuanzi, without Immortal Venerable Yinghui, Qing Xuanzi would naturally be easier to deal with.
"You are not Qingyao!"
Just then, Qing Xuanzi's longsword, imbued with yin energy, suddenly thrust towards Wei Qinghe.
Wei Qinghe frowned, stomped her foot hard, and moved rapidly backward with her toes touching the ground.
The sword energy, shrouded in yin energy, hurtled straight at Wei Qinghe's face, but Wei Qinghe was quite fast.
