She is Jianxiu

Three days ago?

Zhao Yu could not help but be a little surprised, because the timing was just a coincidence. It was about the day after she wrote to Shi Xiangyuan that the other party came directly to Chi Wei and asked for Jueluo Water. Although this item was not very useful, it was indispensable if one wanted to remove metal and iron and extract evil spirits. She could not determine whether the person really needed this item. If it was a coincidence, it would be a pity.

Chi Yao saw her eyes move slightly, and after a moment of silence, he directly asked: "May I ask, elder, do you know the name of the disciple who took away the Jueluo Water?"

I did begin to doubt the other party's true intentions.

Chi Wei raised his eyebrows upon hearing this and sneered, "That man claimed to be a true disciple, and his name was Yuan Donglai. I thought he had decent aptitude, and he was sincere in asking for it, so I simply gave him all the remaining Jueluo water from that year. It's a lot, and I'm afraid he can't use it all by himself. If you go and discuss it with him, maybe you can get him to share some with you."

He also knew that after Zhao Yu came back from the lower realm, all the disciples in the sect complained about her monopolizing the opportunity, especially the true disciples. Since these cultivators have reached their current positions, their aptitude and understanding are naturally not bad, and they are more proud and arrogant than others. In this case, how can they be willing to be inferior to others and watch this great opportunity being taken away by others?

Not to mention others, even Chi Yu himself couldn't help but secretly complain a few words. He never thought that the head immortal would be so biased and go against everyone's opinion and only let Zhao Yu go.

However, the leader's words were like the law of heaven, and he had no room to interfere. Therefore, although everyone had complaints in their hearts, they did not dare to blame the immortal for it, so they could only start with Zhao Yu.

When Zhao Yu heard the name, it seemed familiar. After thinking about it, he remembered who Yuan Donglai was.

Before this, she had just returned to the sect from the Sun Island, and there were rumors circulating in the sect that the sect wanted to select disciples from the Dragon and Tiger Tower to go down to the human world. At that time, the disciples did not know the origin of the demon species, and they were all excited about the great opportunity mentioned in the rumors. It was at that time that Yuan Donglai asked someone to send a letter to her, saying that he was willing to give up his position in the Dragon and Tiger Tower in exchange for a grain of Xitu from Zhao Yu.

Zhao Yu naturally did not agree to this matter. Firstly, she did not have any Xitu in her hands, and she did not think that the two were of equal value. Secondly, the head of the sect summoned her not long after, and decided that she would go alone to eradicate the root of the demon species.

From then on, she and Yuan Donglai had no more contact. Except for a letter, they had never met each other and had no grudges against each other.

But now it seems that this idea of ​​not interfering with each other seems to be just Zhao Yu's wishful thinking.

Since there were hidden secrets from the past, Zhao Yu did not think that what happened today was just a coincidence. After all, when Yuan Donglai sent the message, he was already only one step away from the spiritual realm. He was willing to give up the position of the true disciple of the Dragon and Tiger Tower to Zhao Yu because he had already had the idea of ​​abdicating. All these things showed that Yuan Donglai was trying his best to prepare for a breakthrough, so how could he have the time to absorb any golden evil energy.

It can be seen that there are other intentions.

Zhao Yu lowered her eyes silently, not taking Chi Wei's words seriously. If Yuan Donglai had taken the Jueluo Water just to embarrass her, how could he have given it to her just because she asked for it? If he had taken the thing first, it wouldn't have been a big deal. He might have had a backup plan, and he wanted to have another encounter with her in the future with this thing.

Not knowing what Yuan Donglai was planning in his mind, Zhao Yu felt a little unhappy, so he said goodbye to Chi Wei and went back to the cave.

Since this route was not feasible, she could only wait for the news from the Weapon Making Department. She suppressed her distracting thoughts and put away all the things she had used to refine the Three Yang Sword Evils. Fortunately, her practice in the way of swordsmanship had encountered a blockage, but her own cultivation realm could continue to advance. She had now opened up the spiritual gates of the two paths of spirit and spirit, and had truly entered the late stage of externalization. Only the spiritual gate of the Qi Path remained a barrier, which she had to work hard to slowly eliminate. Because there was no shortcut on this path, only diligent practice could make up for it. Zhao Yu thought about refining the Yin Yang Sword Evil first, making progress in the way of swordsmanship earlier, and then it would not be too late to improve her cultivation.

It’s a pity that we encountered such obstacles.

Zhao Yu suppressed his thoughts and stopped thinking about other things. He turned around, walked into the quiet room and sat down cross-legged. After just a few breaths, he had already concentrated his mind into a state of meditation. No sound could be heard except for his gentle breathing.

Qiu Shuze, Chengyuan Island.

This cave is covered with swamps and has thirty-six islands of different sizes, which are distributed like astrology, which is in line with the omen of heaven. It is not a place for ordinary disciples to live, but a body of water in the mysterious world. Disciples from this lineage choose it as their residence for cultivation. Judging from the density of spiritual energy, it is not inferior to ordinary blessed places.

For a disciple like Yuan Donglai, who came from an obscure background and had to plan carefully to get to where he is today, it is naturally a great blessing to be able to possess this cave. However, what is truly enviable is not how the residence looks like, but the confidence behind it.

Xiangxuan Cave Heaven is one of the Eighteen Cave Heavens of Zhaoyan. The owner of this place is the immortal Lu Wang from Yuanzhi. All his disciples follow him to practice and move around in this cave heaven. They claim to be disciples of the Xiangxuan lineage to the outside world. Their status is indeed different from that of ordinary people. The sect is as prosperous as a towering tree. He can call his friends and have someone to rely on wherever he goes.

Yuan Donglai followed the boy all the way inside. Although he had seen countless differences and biases over the years, he still felt a little confused.

Unlike Xiang Xuan's lineage, his master had long since fallen. Not to mention the immortals and the great powers, even the immortal monks were only his mentor, who could not provide much help on weekdays. Now he had to rely on his own planning. He did not feel any obstacles before, but only at this breakthrough moment did he realize that he was no different from the wandering dead leaf. With his comprehension, he had already surpassed his master, so even his mentor could not give him any advice.

How can it be like the mysterious cave heaven, where it is passed down from generation to generation, with deep roots and lush leaves?

He slowly walked into the island's temple, where a thin Taoist was waiting. The Taoist was about twenty-five or twenty-six years old, with a handsome face and a tall stature. His eyes were full of spirit and he seemed quite arrogant and ostentatious. When he saw Yuan Donglai stepping in, he quickly waved to him to take a seat and stared at his sleeves. It was obvious what he meant.

Yuan Donglai raised his sleeves and bowed, then said solemnly, "Senior Brother Hang, I am honored."

Then, under the gaze of the thin Taoist priest, he shook out a smoky green porcelain bottle, pointed to the belly of the bottle and said, "All the Jueluo water obtained from Elder Chi Wei is inside. Fortunately, we got there before Zhao Yu did, so she didn't get what she wanted."

Hang Shubai smiled when he heard this, waved his hand and took the porcelain bottle over, then gave him an admiring look and said, "Junior Brother Yuan has always been thorough in his work, so I am naturally relieved." (End of this chapter)
