They returned to the square where they had left.
Qing'er and Ye Baiyu were both extremely weak at the moment, and they were slowly helped to a resting place by Yunzhi and Xiewei.
At this time, several teams had returned to the square one after another. Judging by the time, they were all teams that had withdrawn early, like the Lishan Sect.
Naturally, the Lishan Sect's mission failed, and the other teams didn't fare much better.
Yunzhi looked around and found that all the returning teams were disgraced and suffered heavy injuries. In comparison, the injuries of Qing'er and Ye Baiyu seemed relatively minor. At least they did not have broken arms or legs, and blood was flowing all over the ground.
Yunzhi frowned, this was very abnormal.
When she was still practicing in the Beizhen Sect, she had attended several Immortal Sect Competitions, and almost no teams had withdrawn from the competition. Even if there is a team that withdraws from the competition, it is like the Lishan faction who withdraws early simply because they do not want to participate. This kind of team will withdraw directly as soon as the time comes, and will not be injured at all because they are not completing the task.
However, any team that has started the mission will not easily withdraw from the competition. They will often stay in the trial land for more than a month.
Unless...these injured teams are now the same as the Lishan Sect. Although they retired early, they were ambushed during the exit process and were injured as a result.
Yunzhi's eyes turned cold, and she secretly remembered the names of these sects. After completing the withdrawal procedures, she took Qing'er and Bai Yu back to their residence to rest.
...
Yunzhi was busy taking care of the two of them until late at night, and finally got some time to rest.
But she only took a nap for half an hour and then continued to prepare for practice.
The Beizhen sect is indeed the Beizhen sect, and the purchase from Dijie is really good. There is abundant spiritual energy here, which is very helpful for cultivation. With this thought in mind, she chose a good spot in the yard, closed her eyes and adjusted her breathing.
A familiar step came from far away and then stopped in front of Yunzhi.
Jie Wei's voice came, "Master...is Senior Sister going to start practicing?"
Yunzhi thought that he must have something to do with her, so she opened her eyes and looked at him, "Not yet, do you have something to do with me?"
Jie Wei lifted the food box in his hand with a smile on his face, "I remember that Senior Sister has not eaten since she came back. I went to the kitchen to make this specially for Senior Sister. I don't know if Senior Sister has time to eat."
He placed the food box on the table in the middle of the yard and took out the meals one by one. The table was filled with food, with as many as 6 dishes.
Suddenly, the aroma of the food filled the entire courtyard.
Yunzhi suddenly felt hungry.
She stood up and walked to the table, took a look at the delicious dishes on the table, and smiled at Jie Wei, "I didn't expect A Wei to have such superb cooking skills. I guess you haven't eaten either, come on, let's eat together." "
Jie Wei handed the chopsticks to Yunzhi and watched Yunzhi eat a large piece of braised pork belly with a satisfied smile before he moved his chopsticks with satisfaction.
After Yunzhi took a few bites of meat, he showed a thoughtful expression. This expression was seen by Jie Wei, and he didn't ask any more questions. He just took out a jug of wine and two wine cups from the empty food box like a magic trick.
He shook the wine bottle towards Yunzhi, then filled Yunzhi with wine and handed it to Yunzhi.
A long-lost smile appeared on Yunzhi's face, and her tone was full of surprise, "I didn't expect A Wei to specially prepare wine. She is really thoughtful."
Jie Wei just smiled and said, "If these delicacies are not paired with wine, it always feels like something is missing."
Yunzhi agreed very much. But she looked at the wine in front of her and struggled in her heart. She still clearly remembered the last time she lost her temper after being drunk, "But I..."
Jie Weidao said, "Who in the Lishan Sect doesn't know that senior sister can't drink alcohol, so I only prepared this small pot of sake. Senior sister, please rest assured, with this amount, a child of several years old will not get drunk after drinking it."
Yunzhi took a sip and found that the wine was indeed as Jie Wei said. The alcohol content was very low and difficult to be intoxicating, so he drank it boldly.
After a few glasses of wine, Yunzhi let out a long sigh, as if he wanted to sigh out all the pain and sorrow he had endured before.
She looked up at the moon. Today is the fifteenth day, and the full moon is in the night sky. The moonlight is like water, gentle and quiet.
It's a pity that he can never see such a beautiful moon again.
Jie Wei watched Yunzhi's originally smiling expression gradually become lonely, and guessed that she was thinking about the trial place again.
When he was in heaven, he checked Yunzhi's past experiences and knew that she had never suffered such a painful change like today, so he softly advised, "Senior sister, if you are still sad, let it out. I will accompany you. You, I will listen to whatever you want to say."
Yunzhi was a little surprised. She originally thought that Jie Wei would persuade her not to be too sad, but she didn't expect that he would just let her vent it out.
Now she really doesn't need any comfort, but needs to vent.
Yunzhi looked at the young man pouring wine for him in front of him. The jade earring on his right ear shone brightly in the moonlight, like a star falling in the dust.
She felt that the young man in front of her was far more mature than he looked.
Yunzhi picked up a glass of wine and drank it in one gulp, "But I don't know what I should say."
"Some things have happened and I can't change them anymore. I have no other choice but to accept them. I just feel so powerless..."
Unable to force Lishan Sect to participate in the Immortal Competition, unable to watch others die in front of him, his favorite disciple could only sacrifice himself...
Jie Wei squeezed the wine glass tightly, trying his best to restrain his urge to hug her tightly.
Yunzhi didn't notice these tiny movements and continued to talk to himself, "I always thought that Qing'er and Bai Yu had simple personalities, but I didn't realize that I was the same. The Immortal Sect Grand Competition is the highest level in the Immortal League. In the competition, how many sects fought openly and secretly in order to participate in the Immortal Sect Competition. The matter of Lishan Sect entering the competition was already strange, but as the leader of the sect, I was unsuspecting. Treating this matter so casually resulted in what is happening now. I am negligent..."
Jie Wei was speechless for a moment. He knew very well in his heart that all this was destined. It was Yunzhi's fate in this life, and it was also the calamity she would go through when she came to earth this time.
He knew that the moment the divine order to raise the giant butterfly beast was given to the Lishan Sect, it was the beginning of Yunzhi's disaster in this life.
Even without him, Yunzhi would still encounter the seven-tailed cat demon and successfully conquer it, then participate in the Immortal Sect Competition, and finally experience this moment.
Jie Wei felt that he was weaker than Yunzhi at this moment, so he also picked up the wine glass and drank it all.
The two looked at each other in silence, just drinking in silence.
Yunzhi drank another glass of wine and was about to speak when he heard footsteps suddenly coming from outside the courtyard, followed by a slight knock on the door, "Dong, dong, dong."
"Who?" Yunzhi asked warily.
The person outside chuckled, "I am the leader of Beizhen Sect's Aoki Peak, Shen Zijin."
