Don't be afraid, fairy, I'm blind

Chapter 169 The bet with Ji Xueruo

Ji Xueruo looked closely and found that the lotus root on the left had a very slight crack in its heart.

Although the lotus root heart is a holy treasure of healing, if it cannot be taken away, it will lose all value to Ji Xueruo.

According to rumors, the reason why the Jinpeng clan is in urgent need of Lotus Root Heart is because the holy son of the Jinpeng clan had a dispute with the first genius of the Shenshan Lingbao Sect when he was hunting for treasure in a secret place. The two fought hard and both suffered extremely serious injuries.

Therefore, with the presence of the Lingbao Sect, it is impossible for the Jinpeng clan to freely set foot on the land of Zhongyuan Continent. Therefore, the Jinpeng clan will not hesitate to issue tasks in the form of a sacred mountain trial, but even so, no demon has succeeded.

"If you can't take it away, then you can only let in those who need it?"

You Su frowned, asking the master's wife to leave the Liansheng Pond at Lotus Peak and come so far away, I'm afraid the losses would be greater than the benefits.

"Theoretically, it is true." Venerable Chengtao took two steps and stood in front of the invisible and colorless water curtain. "I think Mr. You and Miss Ji are seeking the lotus root heart to save people. . I will not ask you who you are, and I can even assure you that the identity of the person who comes to Yuhuan Pool for treatment will be kept secret. So I can only work hard to decide who gets this intact lotus root heart."

Ji Xueruo glanced at You Su and found that You Su was also looking at her apologetically. She knew the answer in her heart. It seemed that they all had reasons why they could not let the seriously injured person come to Yuhuan Pond in person.

She pursed her thin red lips, suddenly lightened her body, and said calmly:

"Two days at most. Young Master You wants to return to the Holy Mountain?"

Venerable Chengtao stared at You Su's eyebrows. Invisible under You Su's skin and bones, a lotus-like fairy seed shone brightly.

Venerable Chengtao made no secret of the admiration in his eyes. His only son, who was corrupted by the evil god, was also extremely talented, but compared to Yu Su, he pales in comparison.

You Su was silent when he heard this. His promise to Shen Xi before was just a delaying tactic, because he could not watch Yudie die in front of him for the sake of Lotus Root, but now he could no longer agree.

Lord Chengtao could not hear the girl's thoughts. His gentle eyes flickered back and forth on the faces of Ji Xueruo and You Su, and he understood the girl's determination.

Caught between the two, he was indeed in trouble.

"It seems that Mr. You really has no idea of ​​his own strength."

"How long can I preserve such a false Ningshui Realm?" You Su asked with concern. Even if he borrowed his green boat from the Third Elder, it would still take him four days to get back to Xuanxiao Sect.

After saying this, the girl pretended to smile lightly.

"I think Shenxi should have told you that Venerable Lianjian has a very high affinity with Yuhuan Pond. The Xuanqi water in her spiritual platform is fully capable of preserving the lotus root heart. So the only way is to let Venerable Lianjian "

"Young Master You has a unique Lotus Immortal Seed, and it stands to reason that he has a very high affinity with Yuhuanchi. Maybe you... also have a chance to take away the Lotus Root Heart."

"Master is still in retreat, but the person who needs Lotus Root Heart is in danger. I'm afraid Master can't help."

"Although you are in the middle level of the Lingtai, the Xuan Qi in your body is more than that of the average Lingtai. What's more, you also have an immortal seed that is equivalent to the second Lingtai. The total of these Xuan Qi is enough to equal a touch. A monk who has reached the threshold of the Condensing Water Realm.”

Ji Xueruo's beautiful eyes shone, You Su was indeed stronger than she expected. Perhaps there was such a group of people in this world who would always stand out among their peers. But Ji Xueruo will not feel inferior, because she must be one of them.

"and many more!"

You Su lamented, the more Ji Xueruo gave up to him, the more he blamed himself. If it was a stranger, that would be fine. You Su might really accept it shamelessly for the sake of his wife, but the other party happened to be the one he was in an awkward situation with. Ji Xueruo.

For this boy, since she could do this to this extent...why should she break off the relationship with him?
He grinned and glanced at Venerable Cui He on the side. Even if you live hundreds of years, you still can’t figure out a woman’s thoughts...

Ji Xueruo saw his tangled look and was about to persuade him again, but was interrupted by Venerable Chengtao.

"I don't need to save anyone, I just want to give myself a chance to survive in a desperate situation. In this case, I will give this intact lotus root heart to You Gongzi. Someday I will be seriously injured and unable to recover, and I will climb to the Yuhuan. When I was at the entrance of the pool, I hoped that Venerable Chengtao could save my life."

You Su suddenly interrupted sternly. He didn't believe that if Ji Xue didn't have an ulterior motive, if it was just to find a trump card for herself, how could she even risk her life? Isn’t this putting the cart before the horse?
"Your Majesty only said that this is the theory. It seems that there are other ways. Your Majesty might as well listen to it."

"Me? But I am only in the middle realm of Lingtai. My Xuan Qi is not enough, right?" You Su did not lose his thoughts because of the turn of events.

You Su nodded.

"Then what Mr. You should be worried about is not this, but whether your spiritual platform can hold the lotus root heart. I need to report the situation to the Demonic Protection Department of the Holy Mountain, so I will personally send you back to the Holy Mountain. Two days is enough."

"What will happen if you can't let go?"

"The effect may be greatly reduced, or it may be completely destroyed. Although the Lotus Root Heart is a spiritual thing, spiritual things have spirits and are very picky about their living environment. Whether Mr. You can be accepted by it is uncertain. So how to choose , you still need to make your own decision. If you fail, I guarantee you that the next batch of lotus root hearts in a hundred years will still have a share of You Gongzi. "

Venerable Chengtao actually didn't want to take this risk, but there was no other way. He really couldn't bear to let these two young people who made outstanding contributions to Yuhuan Pond come back disappointed.

You Su lowered his head and hesitated. He didn't dare to bet. If he made the wrong bet, the master's wife's realm would be gone forever, but he couldn't bear that Ji Xueruo would give up her goal and give it to him. She can persist until now, and there must be a reason why she has to get Lotus Root Heart.

And just when he was about to give up, suddenly, the little white fish that had disappeared suddenly appeared in the dark sight!
It hovered next to the cracked lotus root heart, but the strange thing was that the two surrounding sages didn't even notice its existence!

You know, the little white fish is an evil spirit belonging to the dream master! It is impossible for these two Venerable Dongxu from the Evil Dispelling Department to allow an evil spirit to survive in the Yuhuan Pond!

Only then did You Su remember a key point. The little white fish was not hidden deep in the lake bottom like the earth. Its activity range was in the water, but even so, it was not discovered by the venerables...

Doesn't this mean that its level is so high that it can't even be seen in the Cave Void Realm if it doesn't take the initiative to show up?
You Su looked at the little white fish in shock, and the little white fish spit out a bubble and wrapped the heart of the lotus root in it, and then nodded towards You Su like a chicken pecking at rice, as if to say to him: Don't worry, I am a god. I'll help you sort it out.

Then, the little white fish happily drew circles and swam away.

"Don't think about it. I'll give it to you as promised. If you keep grinding, the people you want to save will die."

Ji Xueruo curled her lips. The last thing she wanted to see was You Su struggling like this.

"No." You Su took a step forward firmly, "I'm willing to give it a try."

……

The autumn breeze is refreshing and the forest is surging, but the water of Yuhuan Lake next to the port is still.

You Su and Ji Xueruo stood on Lao Yu's fishing boat. They came on this boat and were going to go on this boat now.

It's just that Lao Yu seems to be in poor health and is still recuperating under Xiao Yu's care. However, they don't need to paddle on their own on the way out of the lake.

The dock was filled with people from the Jade tribe who came to see him off. They were led by the two venerables, followed naturally by Yu Mengyu and other maids. At this time, they all had tears in their eyes and waved their hands at You Su reluctantly. The colorful scarf is like a vast expanse of colorful clouds in the sky.

"Young Master You! Remember to go back to Yuhuan Pond more often!"

Yu Long made a trumpet shape with his hands and shouted vigorously, as if this was Yu Su's hometown.

You Su smiled and waved goodbye to the sisters.

Ji Xueruo glanced at him, then turned to Venerable Cuihe and said coldly: "Aunt Yuhe, it's getting late, so Xueruo will leave first." Venerable Yuhe covered his face and smiled lightly: "Yes, that's right, it's time. Let's go. I won't send you to Yongning Port. Remember to write a letter to report that it's safe. As long as it's for business, Shenhanzhou will send you. Master You, the ship is about to start, so be careful!"

She seemed to be reminding Yusu that the boat was about to start, but in fact she was reminding Yusu that he should be careful about women's jealousy.

She also wanted to send Ji Xueruo to the port to take a boat, but a holy land cannot be left without the presence of Lord Dongxu.

"Thank you, Auntie, for reminding me." You Su turned around and sat down thoughtfully on the boat.

Ji Xueruo raised her head slightly and sat down while stroking her skirt.

This ancient fishing boat slowly disappeared from everyone's sight under the operation of the underwater magic circle.

"Didn't Venerable Chengtao send you there? Why didn't you come together?" Ji Xueruo asked curiously. Of course, she would not feel that Yuhuanchi's treatment of the two of her was unfair because of this.

"He said he still needs to tell the tribe a few words. After we get out of the lake, he will come out to look for me."

You Su knew very well that Venerable Chengtao actually wanted to get on the boat together, but was held back by Venerable Cuihe. Presumably, that gentle and beautiful woman wanted to give the two people who were about to separate one last moment alone together.

Ji Xueruo put her hands between her legs to suppress the black skirt that was raised by the lake breeze. The smooth and delicate legs under the skirt were like jade pillars, shining brightly.

"Hey, how are you?"

Ji Xueruo asked coldly, as if she didn't care about it and just asked casually.

"good."

You Su could feel that a spiritual bead in his spiritual platform was slowly spinning, sucking in the Xuan Qi he had stored in the spiritual platform.

Ji Xueruo rolled her eyes prettyly, "You are from the Little White Fish Gang, right?"

"How did Miss Ji know?"

In You Su's view, Ji Xueruo shouldn't have seen the little white fish. The little white fish should be of a higher rank than Zang Tu, so even the venerables who had seen Zang Tu couldn't see it. And he must have seen the dream eater, so he could see the little white fish.

"You can guess it. You have to thank it for giving you the opportunity to show yourself personally. You didn't see how shocked Venerable Chengtao was when he found out that you really put the lotus root heart into the spiritual altar. I saw He can’t wait to make you the new eldest son of Yuhuanchi.”

You Su reflected habitually, "I don't know what the purpose of the little white fish is."

"She came to see me last night."

Ji Xueruo moved her gaze to Yuhuan Lake, seeming to be looking for the figure of the little white fish:

"Zang Shui is dead, and she has become the new water god of Yuhuan Pond as she wished. It is a creature bred by Yuhuan Pond itself, and it was born to guard this place. Putting aside Zang Shui's ancient and heavy memories, she is just a naughty It's just a little girl who likes to talk nonsense. If you are really worried about her having evil thoughts, come back and check on her from time to time. Anyway, I can't even play with you, let alone a little girl... "

"Besides what?"

"Besides, aren't there a pair of sisters waiting for you here?"

When You Su heard this, he didn't feel embarrassed at all. He didn't even have the slightest thought of explaining. He just sat quietly and couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth.

Ji Xueruo felt strange when she saw this, and felt that You Su's smile was disgusting:

"Why are you laughing?! I, I'm not jealous!"

You Su replied as if he was holding a grudge: "But I didn't say you were jealous either."

Ji Xueruo remembered that she had teased him like this in the morning, and secretly felt that this man was really a coward. She wanted to scold the blind man, but suddenly she saw the lakeshore not far away.

This trip to Yuhuan Pond is really coming to an end...

She had already decided that she would leave without hesitation after landing. She was afraid that if she stayed any longer, she would change her mind.

In this last moment, she shouldn't tell any more unintentional jokes.

The lake breeze blew away her black hair, revealing her facial features that were extremely beautiful, but also had a fierce heroic spirit, which was the temperament unique to this snake girl.

"Yusu."

You Su was stunned for a moment, then sat upright.

In his mind, this was the first time that Ji Xueruo called out his full name in reality, and it was no longer Hey or the estranged Mr. You.

"I admit, I have probably fallen in love with you, of course, just a little bit. Once upon a time, I hated all human male cultivators, but now I have fallen in love with the man my sister has fallen in love with. Looking back on the experience of the past half month , I really don’t think it’s true. All the fate seems to be pushing us together, as if we are destined to fall in love. But I don’t believe in fate. I have so much more than this sudden love. There are still too many worries to consider, and they all seem to be more important than the love between children. So, I want to make a bet with you."

"What bet?"

"When I have finished everything, if I still like you, then what if I accept this fate and let you enjoy the blessings of this group of people?"

You Su remained silent.

"Are you so unsure of yourself?"

Ji Xueruo glanced at You Su disdainfully.

"I'll bet you."

Yousu stood up, as firm as a rock.

Ji Xueruo also stood up, with crooked eyes and a bright smile.

Like a dragonfly touching water, the lips parted at the first touch.

She jumped to the shore, her black skirt swaying in the green reeds, like a black snake leaving gracefully.

"gone."

You Su opened his dark eyes and took in the girl's back, filled with endless thoughts about the future.

Ji Xueruo only said that he would wait for her to finish everything, but did not say that he could not help her.

Maybe there are some things that you don't have to hold in your hands right away. You Su believes that with the passage of time, this feeling will not cool down, but will become more mellow.
