As the Universe Turns - Chapter 703
Chapter 703 Ruoshui
It rained continuously outside until evening when the rain gradually stopped. A middle-aged man in black stuck his head out and looked outside. Seeing that the rain had stopped, he said, “Big brother, the rain has stopped. Do you want to go into the mountain?”
“It’s getting late today. Why don’t we stay for the night and leave after dawn tomorrow morning?” Old man Qingyi sat cross-legged and said slowly.
“Alright, alright.”
The red-clothed girl looked very happy and looked at the black-clothed middle-aged man who had spoken to her earlier. “Uncle, you said that ten years ago. Were you there at that time?”
“No …”
The black-clothed middle-aged man shook his head and said, “I wasn’t there at that time. I just heard people say that Ling Yin wanted to kill him at that time, but for some reason, the last palm didn’t land …”
Hearing this, the smile on the girl’s face gradually disappeared. Instead, it was replaced by an inexplicable complicated expression. When the middle-aged man saw that she was absent-minded, he asked, “What? The girl seems to be very interested in these things?”
“Ah …”
Only then did the girl regain her senses and say, “No … no, then, did he … enter the devil realm in the end?”
“Humph!”
Suddenly, the leader, Old man Qingyi, let out a cold snort. The black-clothed middle-aged man beside him whispered, “What happened to Big Brother?”
Old man Qingyi said coldly, “What does it mean to be enchanted? At that time, everyone wanted to kill him. Even his most respected master wanted to kill him. As long as he resisted, would he be enchanted? Then what was it like to kill someone on the Righteous path?”
“Ah, I…”
The girl stared at him blankly. She didn’t know if the words “enter the devil” just now had made him unhappy. At this moment, another old man beside her sighed and said, “In the past, there were no righteous devils in this world. Everything in his heart was the Dao, and he once wholeheartedly went for the Dao. However, what was the final result? They were all forced by the world …”
“To be enchanted is to be enchanted. How can there be so many excuses!”
At this moment, a cold voice suddenly came from outside. Everyone in the room was shocked. Who was approaching, yet they didn’t notice at all?
“Who is it!”
The two black-clothed middle-aged men who were sitting by the door flew out first. On the muddy mountain road, there were actually more than twenty figures standing. On the left were two abbess masters, and on the right were two old men. From the looks of it, these people did not seem to be from the same sect, but from two sects. As for the person who had just spoken, he was the abbess dressed in a cyan Daoist robe on the left.
“Who are you? You’re lying here!” A black-clothed middle-aged man immediately took out his magic treasure and looked coldly at Aunt Qingyi.
“Nonsense?”
“That person first betrayed the sect, had an affair with the Qingyi witch, and then killed people from all sects. In the past ten years, he had killed countless people. Could it be that he was not going to enter the Devil Realm?” The Martial Aunt Diabolism snorted coldly as she cast a sidelong glance at him.
“Countless killings? These past few years, you so-called Righteous path, you have killed fewer people!”
The black-clothed middle-aged man was impatient. Before he could finish his words, he waved his hand and the black-fog magic treasure flew towards Grand Master Qingyi.
Seeing the Demon Cult magic treasure coming, Aunt Qingyi’s expression did not change. She waved her hand and a powerful force shot out. With a “bang”, the magic treasure was sent flying back.
“Demon Cult demon, you’re arrogant!”
A purple-robed abbess flew up from behind, and the rest of the people in the hut also came out. Seeing the two empress dowagers, the red-robed girl covered her mouth and cried out in alarm, “Martial Uncle Xian Qing, Martial Uncle Yi Zhi!”
It turned out that these two abbesses were Qinghong Sect and Yizhi from Abbess Xian Qing, while the person on the right was someone from Cangfeng Valley. The two old men leading them were Xu Taichang and Xiao Chen, who were chasing after He Chongtian in the Dongjie Mountains.
Obviously, the few of them also recognized the red-clothed girl immediately. Abbess Xian Qing’s expression was slightly shocked. He never expected that this girl would actually be here. She was also with the 36 Devil Religions and demons and asked, “Ruoshui, why are you here? Where is your master?”
“Ah …”
The young girl was at a loss. This time, she had sneaked down the mountain. How could she dare to let Master know? She muttered, “Master, Master …”
Before she could finish her sentence, Aunt Yi Zhi suddenly scolded the seven people from the 36 sects, “You guys are so bold. Do you know who her master is? You even dare to make a move on her!”
“Ah, no, no, no. I want to be with Uncle and the others, not …”
Seeing that there was a misunderstanding, the young girl shook her hand continuously, wanting to explain, but at this moment, how could she explain it clearly?
Abbess Xian Qing said, “Ruoshui! Hurry up and come over. Don’t you know that these people are all devils who kill without blinking an eye?”
“Ah … no, no, no, uncle and the others …”
The girl kept shaking her hand, wanting to explain. Old man Qingyi, who was beside her, had a keen mind. He had long sensed that this girl’s background was extraordinary, but he had never asked her anything. At this moment, he asked, “Young lady, can you tell me which sect you are from?”
“I…”
“Hmph! Her master is Fairy Miaoyin. Are you really blind? You even dare to make a move on her?” Said Grand Master Yi Zhi before the young girl could say anything, “Hmph! Her master is Fairy Miaoyin.”
Upon hearing that it was actually a disciple that Fairy Miaoyin had accepted ten years ago, the seven of them were shocked. At this moment, Abbess Xian Qing suddenly attacked. With a whisk of dust, she brought Ruoshui to a safe place and immediately fought with the seven people from the 36 sects.
On the other side, Xu Taichang and He Chongtian were still wondering why Ling Yin’s disciple was here with the demons of the 36 sects. Seeing that the two sides were already fighting, they immediately attacked.
Both sides had some Dao Cultivators, and the battle was so dark that it was hard to determine the outcome. Ruoshui stood in the distance, his face anxious, and he continuously shouted, “You guys don’t have to fight anymore …”
However, in these ten years, the two powers of the Righteous and the Devil had been like fire and water. When they met, they would fight to the death. Who would listen to her?
Right at this moment, a hundred zhang sword light suddenly slashed over from afar. With a “boom” sound, the seven people from the 36 sects were sent flying. Two of them were even shaken to the point of vomiting blood. Ruoshui was so frightened that his face turned pale. Looking back, he saw an old man in a green robe flying over. He had a cold gaze and was holding an immortal sword. It was Cangfeng Valley, the Second Valley Master of Liu Xuanyang.
Ten years had passed, and his cultivation was far from what it had been back then. Seeing him here, the thirty-six sects immediately knew that it was no longer appropriate to fight. A middle-aged man in black said, “Big brother, hurry up and leave!”
Old man Qingyi no longer hesitated. The seven of them immediately cast their escape spells and turned into seven streaks of black mist, heading towards the Xiqi Mountain Range.
Just as Abbess Xian Qing and Aunt Yizhi were about to chase after him, Liu Xuanyang stretched out his hand and shouted, “Aunt Yizhi, there’s no need to chase after me.”
Upon hearing this, the two abbesses stopped. Aunt Yi Zhi looked in the direction where the few of them had fled and coldly snorted, “Those people are lucky. Next time we meet, we will definitely slay them by the sword!”
At this time, Liu Xuanyang looked at Ruoshui and asked with a frown, “Miss Ruoshui, why are you here?”
“Ah, I…”
Ruoshui still hadn’t recovered from that scene. It turned out that she was the girl who had joined Ling Yin ten years ago. Originally, Ling Yin didn’t plan to accept any more disciples, but after Yi Huanzhen persuaded her, she still accepted this girl into the sect. However, she was accepted as the nineteenth generation disciple of Purple Night Peak, and Xiao Chen was the eighteenth generation disciple.
