Although Yu Jiuxu is not a know-it-all, when working for Guan Yubai, it is indispensable to be well-informed. In this continent, there is no Taoist cultivator at the level of the Patriarch Immortal, or even a slightly famous Taoist friend. She hadn't heard of it.
But the people she met tonight could tell at a glance that they were not ordinary people, and they were not just fellow Taoists from that party. However, she had no impression at all, which inevitably made Yu Jiuxu a little bit. Suspicious.
Although Wan Chuyue said she didn't know, the heaviness and worry vaguely revealed in her eyes were not hidden from Yu Jiuxu's eyes.
Back at the Demon Palace, Wan Chuyue sent Yu Jiuxu back to the room, "In the recent period, it's best for you to stay here and not go out."
"..." As soon as Yu Jiuxu stepped across the threshold, he heard Wan Chuyue's voice behind him. Yu Jiuxu paused slightly and looked back. Their eyes met.
After a brief silence, Yu Jiuxu opened his mouth, wanting to ask something, but after thinking for a moment, he chose to nod silently, and a voice sounded in his heart: She must have her reasons for asking me to do this.
The night passed without incident, and the sun rose in the east.
In the towering attic, Guan Yubai stood in front of the railing, looking into the distance with cold eyes. He listened to Wan Chuyue reporting last night's discovery, but he remained silent.
Until Wan Chuyue asked softly, "Master, during this period, do you want to stop Zaizai from going, in case..."
Guan Yubai raised her hand to interrupt Wan Chuyue's words. Wan Chuyue's heart sank. Even though he hadn't spoken yet, Wan Chuyue had already guessed the result.
Sure enough, the next moment, he said: "It doesn't matter, let her go, you follow her, take Bai Qingqing with you, let her block Zaizai if necessary."
"But……"
"No buts."
Guan Yubai's eyes darkened, and when he turned his head, he was so angry that Wan Chuyue swallowed back the unfinished words. In the end, he could only answer in a flash: "Yes."
Guan Yubai didn't explain anything, only waved her hand again and asked her to leave. Although Wan Chuyue was worried, she didn't dare to disobey, so she could only obey the order and turned around to leave.
On the other hand, Guan Yubai was not worried at all, and there was even a hint of amusement in his expression. He knew that Su Luochen was neither a heavenly king nor an immortal. There was only one thing that could happen to him when he came back. , that is sensing Yu Jiuxu.
The old man's proud disciple is not that good at all. He is just a woman and cannot let go. For him, this is an opportunity, an opportunity to completely reduce the Immortal Sect to a plaything of demon cultivators...
At the same time, inside the inn.
Su Luochen stood outside the large floor-to-ceiling window, looking up at the rising sun in the sky.
"Master," Feng Yunshu stood behind him with helpless eyes: "Are you really not going back? Everyone... misses you very much."
Su Luochen didn't reply, only shook his head silently. He knew that after the disaster, except for a few of them, probably no one would miss him.
Seeing this, Fengyun Shu didn't try to persuade him any more. He only lowered his head in disappointment, and then listened to Su Luochen: "Don't publicize my return to the outside world for the time being. The fewer people know about it, the better."
He guessed that the demon cultivator had many spies and even though he was vigilant and careful when he came back, he tried his best to avoid being discovered. If Yu Jiuxu was still alive, they must know that he came for her.
If the other party becomes wary, it will be almost impossible for him to see her in a short time.
But Fengyun Shu didn't know what he was thinking. Although he had doubts, he didn't ask anything and just nodded in agreement.
Outside town.
Yu Jiuxu was lying on the lawn bored, counting the white clouds passing by in the sky. Suddenly, a shadow fell in front of her eyes. She raised her head and saw Wan Chuyue.
So, she turned over and sat up: "Are you going to take out the soul?"
Wan Chuyue looked at her, shook her head, landed lightly on the ground, squatted down, and said seriously: "You don't need to go today, Shen Jingzi and Bai Qingqing will send the extracted souls over, you just need to send them Just collect them.”
Yu Jiuxu blinked, with a look of confusion on her face, but she still didn't ask anything, just nodded, and Wan Chuyue said again: "Remember, stay away from the people of the Xianzong, and leave without confrontation. Confrontation.”
This time Yu Jiuxu no longer nodded obediently, but tilted his head and said, "You have become so strange. You were never like this before."
Wan Chuyue was startled, and before she had time to react, Yu Jiuxu continued: "You used to tell me that you would kill people who meet the Immortal Sect directly. There is nothing to say, but now you have to I'm avoiding them because I'm afraid I won't be able to defeat them?"
Listening to Yu Jiuxu's sincere questions and meeting her sincere eyes, Wan Chuyue didn't know how to answer for a while. After being silent for a long time, she finally sighed: "Anyway, just remember what I said. If you can't avoid meeting them, try not to."
After finishing her words, she paused slightly and added: "Anyway, I won't harm you."
Seeing her serious tone, Yu Jiuxu seemed to be vaguely aware of something. He just nodded doubtfully and said nothing more.
Not long after, Shen Jingzi led Bai Qingqing out of the dense forest behind him. Bai Qingqing glanced at Yu Jiuxu who stood up beside him. He was a little reluctant, but still threw the bag containing the soul in his hand to her.
Shen Jingzi frowned deeply: "Let's go quickly. The people from the Immortal Sect have already discovered it. Now we are divided into two groups and will meet again in the Demon City."
"Okay." Wan Chuyue nodded, her luck increased, and she dragged Yu Jiuxu away. Shen Jingzi also led Bai Qingqing in the opposite direction. The main purpose was to lure away the people from the Immortal Sect and help Yu Jiuxu. Buy more time.
Here, Yu Jiuxu and Wan Chuyue quickly walked through the woods, heading towards the Magic City.
Everything was going well at first, but I don't know when it started. There were two figures around me, then three, and then more.
He is from the Immortal Sect.
Realizing this, they both stopped on their own initiative. Almost at the same time, Wan Chuyue raised her hand and pulled up the gauze scarf Yu Jiuxu had put on her neck to block her appearance.
The moment she stopped, she stood in front of Yu Jiuxu. The two took a closer look and saw that they were surrounded by people from the Xianmen, led by Mu Wenlan and Fengyun Shu.
"As expected, it's you, Wan Chuyue!"
When she called out her name, Mu Wenlan almost squeezed out the three words from between her teeth.
Wan Chuyue stood in front of Yu Jiuxu and sneered lightly: "Yes, little girl, long time no see." After saying that, she glanced at the disciples around her with cold eyes, paused, and then said: "You are Do you think you can take me down with just these people? Do you underestimate your sister and me too much?"
Mul Wenlan lowered her eyes, full of vigilance: "Stop trying to get married! Who is your sister! The person behind you is the demon cultivator who dug out the heart that night! What's the background! Let her out! Stop pretending to be a ghost here!"
Wan Chuyue smiled and said calmly: "I'm afraid I can't do this~"
As she spoke, she smiled perversely, and just as she raised her hand, the surrounding vines suddenly sprang up, entangling the people surrounding them one by one in the blink of an eye, and the situation was instantly reversed.
"I said it before," Wan Chuyue's eyes were slightly cold, and the cruel look in her eyes had not faded, mixed with a trace of leaked demonic energy. She looked at the two uncontrolled people in front of her and sneered: "With you people, If you want to catch me, you still have a long way to go.”
After saying that, she turned her head slightly and looked at Yu Jiuxu behind her: "Go back to the Magic City first and hand the things to the director."
Yu Jiuxu nodded, but couldn't help but glance curiously at the people aside. With just a quick glance, she turned and left.
Mu Wenlan and Fengyun Shu naturally refused. When they saw her leaving, they wanted to run after her, but unexpectedly Wan Chuyue refused.
