Luo Linlang saw Lu Sangjiu's hidden gaze, and although she was still a little confused, she still said nothing.
At this time, other people also noticed that something was wrong here and rushed here one after another.
When Lu Sangjiu saw the battle, he hurriedly said to the referee before there were too many people, "Senior, I'm really fine. Vomiting blood is an old illness, it's just a minor injury."
After a pause, he added, "And senior can rest assured that even if something happens later, senior will definitely not be implicated."
"Although there is one last match left in my arena match, I think it won't go on anymore, right? If nothing goes wrong, I'll go back and rest first."
The inclusion of evil cultivators in the Sword Seizing Tournament was in itself a mistake of the Gold and Silver Sect, and Miao Rui was probably a clone of a higher-level cultivator, which was very unfair to Lu Sangjiu.
In this case, Lu Sangjiu had won but was still attacked. It would be too bullying if he had to play the last game to advance.
Seeing that Lu Sangjiu persisted and said that he would not be implicated, the referee could not say anything more.
He just nodded and said, "Your competition is temporarily suspended. We will contact you again to determine the outcome."
"I still have a lot of things to deal with here, so just go back and rest with your friend. If anything goes wrong, contact the medical practitioner immediately. Don't be brave."
Lu Sangjiu agreed and immediately left with Luo Linlang and others.
As for what kind of disturbance this incident will cause and what impact it will have on the Gold and Silver Sect, that is not Lu Sangjiu's business.
Far away from the place of right and wrong, everyone couldn't help but ask, "Fellow Daoist Lu, are you really okay?"
Lu Sangjiu shook his head, "I'm really fine, you don't have to worry about me."
She said, "I'll be fine if I go back and take a rest. You don't have to accompany me. Senior sister will take care of me."
"I will tell you as soon as possible when the results are available."
Everyone could tell that Lu Sangjiu seemed to be hiding something, but if she didn't say anything, it would be hard to ask further questions.
So he could only nod his head and said, "If you need help, please feel free to contact us."
"nature."
After appeasing everyone and seeing them all leaving, Lu Sangjiu couldn't help but cough a few more times and spit out a few mouthfuls of blood again.
Luo Linlang's heart ached when she saw it, "You're like this and you still say it's okay? What on earth are you thinking about?"
Lu Sangjiu raised his head and tried his best to smile at her, "Sister, you don't know about my old illness. I have to cough up a few mouthfuls of blood even if I have nothing to do. How normal is that."
"I promise, that Miao Rui really didn't hurt me, so don't worry, eh?"
Seeing her like this, Luo Linlang felt extremely distressed, and her tears kept falling.
"Hmph, you always have the best ideas, and I won't listen to you even if I say so."
She wiped away her tears and said, "Anyway, you just need to know what's going on. Don't let me and my master and senior brother worry."
"Well, let's go back."
Because Lu Sangjiu had cultivated her demonic energy, the demonic energy and spiritual energy in her body together exerted some suppression on the power of heavenly punishment, so after coming out of the secret realm, her problem of vomiting blood was much better.
But this time the power of the curse triggered the power of heavenly punishment, causing the aura in her body to become chaotic and her blood to surge, which also made her very uncomfortable.
She said she wanted to go back and rest. On the one hand, she wanted to leave that place of right and wrong as soon as possible. On the other hand, she really needed to rest.
Luo Linlang helped her back to the inn, and Lu Sangjiu immediately took some elixirs and began to meditate and regulate her breathing.
Luo Linlang was worried about her, so naturally she didn't want to leave, so she stayed in the house.
Lu Sangjiu meditated until the afternoon of the next day, when the turbulent breath in his body finally calmed down.
Then when he opened his eyes, what he saw was not Luo Linlang, but Xie Ningyuan.
There was a hint of surprise in Lu Sangjiu's eyes, "Why are you here? Where is my senior sister?"
"Today's competition has entered the next round, and your senior sister is going to compete."
Lu Sangjiu frowned immediately, "So, how did you convince her to agree to you staying here and watching me?"
Based on the situation last time, the senior sister is probably hoping that Xie Ningyuan will stay far away from her.
Xie Ningyuan spread her hands, "Because I didn't convince her. I sneaked in after she left."
Lu Sangjiu: "..."
Is this inn too negligent in terms of security? Why do you have the nerve to accept ten middle-grade spiritual stones from her a day? Pooh!
Seeing that she didn't speak, Xie Ningyuan thought she was angry again, and immediately said: "I didn't intentionally violate the agreement. I just heard that I just listened to your words and didn't appear in front of you, so you fell into the trap of the Qilin Sect."
"Judging from the current situation of our cooperation against the Qilin Sect, I think you might have something you want to discuss with me right now, so that's why I'm here."
Looking at his serious explanation, Lu Sangjiu still felt a little guilty... Well, he was so angry that he told him not to appear in front of him until the sword seizing competition was over, but he didn't expect that he was quite serious about it.
She never expected that she would be the one to suffer the consequences.
Of course, even if Xie Ningyuan was present at the time, he wouldn't be able to stop Miao Rui now even with his strength.
And he probably couldn't trace any other clues from the self-destructed puppet.
Thinking of this, Lu Sangjiu suddenly felt much more at ease.
"You came just in time. I really have something to discuss with you."
Lu Sangjiu told Xie Ningyuan everything that happened at that time, and Xie Ningyuan's face darkened, "Were you under her curse?"
Lu Sangjiu was about to shake her head when she suddenly thought of something. She was slightly troubled in her heart, but she still didn't say that the curse spell didn't work on her.
After all, it was difficult for her to explain to him why she had the power in her body to swallow the curse easily.
As smart as Xie Ningyuan, once she said something, she would easily make him suspicious.
So she nodded and said, "Yes, so I must find her within a month."
When she said these words, Lu Sangjiu felt guilty... because she knew that she had the intention of deceiving and taking advantage of Xie Ningyuan.
She didn't say that her curse had been removed, not only because she was afraid of his suspicion, but also because she knew very well that Xie Ningyuan didn't want her to die.
In this way, he should be more attentive in helping her find the person behind the Qilin Sect.
Although she felt guilty, Lu Sangjiu didn't feel too guilty, because she and Xie Ningyuan had always wanted to take advantage of each other, and they could never be said to be sincere partners.
So Xie Ningyuan would intervene in her and Gu Jue's affairs first and then in order to keep her mind occupied.
And she would hide something even though she knew Xie Ningyuan would help her, just to make him do his best.
Just... everyone is not a good person, so it's even!
Xie Ningyuan did not doubt Lu Sangjiu's words, and before the curse took effect, external forces could not detect it. Only the person who was cursed could vaguely notice the strangeness in the body.
So he didn't ask any more questions. He just nodded solemnly and said, "I understand. When the Sword Seizing Conference is over, I will accompany you to Qingyun Prefecture."
As he lowered his eyes, murderous intent emerged in his eyes, "At that time, they will pay a heavy price for what they did today."
I created the character cards of Gu Jue and Xie Ningyuan on Dream Building Island. It was quite interesting to play with them for a while, haha. My settings are public. If you are interested, you can search them and chat with them~
