Unparalleled Evildoer

Chapter 212 Three Questions
The sun rises, the morning mist is vast, the mountains are undulating, the red forests are in bloom, and Lingkongzi is flying rapidly at low altitude without any obstacles, breaking through the fog.

The clothes painted with "Qingxie Powder" have been changed. Jin Xingzi took the clothes and went to the other side. Now even the Taoist priest can't find them.

……

A familiar yet unfamiliar place, with steep cliffs, sandalwood forests, waterfalls and clear ponds. He had been here for eight years and had just left here less than a year ago.

The banyan tree is still the same banyan tree, standing alone in the forest. It once hugged her tightly and spent the coldest night with her.

"Ding-dong-dong..." The sound of wind chimes rang out.

"She should be here!" Wuzhan's heart rarely felt so happy. Perhaps he could let go of everything just to find her.

As soon as Lingkongzi landed steadily, Wuzhan couldn't wait to shout: "Wanjiao!"

"Ding-ding-dang-dang..." The only answer he got was the sound of wind chimes.

Wuzhan reached out and stroked the fluttering wind chimes, whispering, "She shouldn't have gone far!"

"Young Master, there are a lot of footprints on the ground!" Ling Kongzi looked at the ground in surprise.

Wuzhan then discovered that there were many footprints on the ground, and most of them were heading into the valley. Wuzhan's heart trembled, and he felt that something big was going to happen.

He hurriedly took Lingkongzi and searched along the footprints. They quickly walked out of the sandalwood forest and came to the clear pool of water. It was the most beautiful scenery Wuzhan had ever seen.

But at this moment, there was another beauty standing by the pool. The lace skirt was gone, replaced by a brown robe. She had lost the purity of that time and gained a sense of grace. She had the dignity that a head of a family should have, and was staring at the steep cliff.

Not far away, there was a tall, handsome man. He was none other than Yu Guizhou, the chief disciple of Mount Lu. Next to him was his junior fellow apprentice, the slightly thin Wei Ziyou. There were a dozen Emei disciples around them, searching for something.

The beauty seemed to sense someone behind her. She turned around and looked. Her delicate body trembled, her eyes moved with surprise and worry. She said in a lost voice, "It's you!"

Wuzhan stepped forward and bowed, saying calmly, "Greetings, Sect Leader Qin!"

Qin Moyao had never expected that the person who made her feel ashamed and miss him, who she resented and loved, would use such plain words, yet like a sharp knife, to pierce deep into her heart. In fact, she should have thought of this sentence a long time ago.

A flash of resentment from that time passed through Qin Moyao's eyes, and then he said calmly: "Sir, why are you here?" Wuzhan's deeds had long been known to everyone, and every incident was incredible to him.

Wuzhan said, "I once lived here with my master. My master's remains are buried in this mountain. I wonder why Master Qin came here?"

After seeing Wuzhan, Yu Guizhou was jealous, but he walked to Qin Moyao with a smile and said to Wuzhan: "Master Qin and I heard a rumor that a fox demon stole Master Ye Yi's "Nine Turns Soul Restoring Pill" and fled to this area. Now many people are searching here after hearing the news. Since you are familiar with this place, take us to search!"

Wuzhan was struck by lightning when he heard this. He should have expected this consequence. Even if he knew that the elixir was eaten by Fusu, how could Ye Yi let her go? He forced himself to remain calm and asked, "How did you know that the fox demon came to this area?"

Yu Guizhou said, "The villagers in this area have seen it. Besides, the fox demon has stolen elixirs from many sects, so they are familiar with its smell. The smell is very strong around here, so it's obvious that it left not long ago."

Wuzhan looked at the steep cliffs in the distance, his heart was in a mess. These people were all trying to get the magical elixir, and they would not give up until they found Wanjiao. Since they had come here, they must have surrounded this place. How could he find Wanjiao and get rid of so many people? He kept thinking, "Wanjiao, Wanjiao! I really owe you too much!"

Ling Kongzi said angrily: "I am a demon, what do you smell on me?"

Yu Guizhou heard this, looked at Ling Kongzi and said with a smile: "Brother, you are joking. You are not a monster at all. You just smell a little bit sweaty. You haven't showered in a few days!"

Ling Kongzi glared at Yu Guizhou and said, "You can't tell it!" Before he finished speaking, he spread his wings with a "teng" and made a ferocious face. Yu Guizhou was so scared that he almost fell to the ground and shouted, "It's really a monster!" Everyone around was shocked and their weapons were revealed.

Wuzhan scolded Lingkongzi, "Stop causing me trouble!"

Ling Kongzi muttered, "I just don't like him and want to scare him for fun!"

“Shut up!” Wuzhan turned to Yu Guizhou and apologized, “I am sorry to have disturbed you, Brother Yu. I hope you can forgive me!”

Yu Guizhou was not actually afraid of any monsters, but he was caught off guard by the sudden shock. He quickly said, "It's okay. I never thought that the master would accept a monster as his apprentice."

Qin Moyao noticed the rare trance in Wuzhan's eyes and asked softly, "Is your Excellency feeling unwell?"

Ling Kongzi said: "Little Master, you only have three days to live!"

"If you say anything more, get out of here!" Wuzhan was really angry. Now was the time when he needed Lingkongzi, so how could he drive him away?

After being scolded, Ling Kongzi dared not say anything and hung his head in dejection.

Qin Moyao's body trembled, her eyes widened, and she cried out: "What!" This day has finally come. The person who once saved her but made her hate him is about to leave this world.

Yu Guizhou saw Qin Moyao's sad expression, and felt jealous but secretly happy at the same time, because no matter how he tried to please her, he could not stir up any waves in her heart. She rejected him thousands of miles away, while Wuzhan, a dying man, occupied her entire sky. Now, in three days, that sky will disappear.

Qin Moyao suddenly said anxiously: "Then go find the fox demon quickly. As long as you get the elixir, there may be hope!" Because she came here to take the 'Nine-turn Soul-Restoring Pill' and give it to Wuzhan. Wuzhan shook his head and sighed: "Master Qin, don't worry. The elixir can't save me, and the elixir is gone. None of you can get it."

"How does your Excellency know?" Yu Guizhou asked. He knew that Qin Moyao came here to take the medicine to give to Wuzhan, but he still followed her.

Wuzhan looked at Yu Guizhou and said, "Because I gave the elixir to someone else."

"How did you get that pill?" Qin Moyao asked.

Wuzhan said: "I don't want to talk about the details, but it is confirmed that it is gone. You should leave here. I have things to do, so I won't keep you company!" Then he walked towards the cliff in the distance.

Qin Moyao shouted from behind: "Wu Zhan!" She didn't expect that Wu Zhan was about to die, and he didn't even want to look at her. Did she really have no place in his heart? She really couldn't accept it.

Wuzhan turned around and asked, "Master Qin, is there anything else?"

Qin Moyao's eyes shook as she cupped her hands in thanks, "Thank you, sir, for sending someone to deliver my father's belongings to me over a thousand miles away!"

Wuzhan returned the greeting and said, "It's just a small favor, Master Qin, you don't have to be polite!" After saying that, he continued walking.

"No obstacles!" Qin Moyao shouted again.

Wuzhan stopped and asked without looking back, "Master Qin, is there anything else?"

Qin Moyao's eyes were filled with tears, and she asked solemnly, "What else did my biological father say?"

"I wrote down everything he said in the letter, that's all." Then he continued walking forward.

“No obstacles!”…

"Is there anything else you want to say?" Wuzhan stopped and asked.

"This is what Mo Yao wants to ask you?"

Wuzhan grabbed the hair on his forehead, feeling upset and about to yell. He closed his eyes and gritted his teeth, "Wuzhan, please don't ask!"

"He's here, it's him!" A voice came from the woods behind, and then more than a dozen figures flew out of the woods, all wearing white Taoist robes, led by a skinny old Taoist.

When Lingkongzi saw these people rushing over, he hurriedly shouted, "Hurry up, they are from Kunlun!" He picked up Wuzhan and flew up.

Before everyone could react, the group rushed in front of Qin Moyao and others. Although the old Taoist was thin, he ran like lightning. He stood up, stepped into the air, and swung out two crescent-shaped axes that were almost the same size as him with both hands.

"Swoosh, swoosh" two light wheels as big as millstones swept towards Lingkongzi at an incredibly fast speed.

Seeing that the halo had blocked the way above, Ling Kongzi leaned over and made an emergency landing, barely avoiding the halo that flew past. The strong wind left two bloody marks on his wings.

Lingkongzi felt a pain in his wings and nearly fell. Just as he steadied himself, the light wheel that he had dodged in front of him came back again, and with a "swish" it split into four wheels, forming a "井" shape, coming with even greater force, blocking all of Lingkongzi's escape routes. Lingkongzi was horrified. Even if he sent out his Qi sword, he would not be able to resist such a force. Was he going to die here? But then he heard Wuzhan shouting, "Go through the middle!"

Lingkongzi hurriedly retracted his wings, hugged Wuzhan, and flew through the center of the "well" like a silver carp. Feathers fluttered, blood splattered, and two more bloodstains appeared on Lingkongzi's wings, deep enough to see the bone. He fell down with severe pain.

Lingkongzi let out a long roar, spread his golden wings and flapped them vigorously, lifting his body up again and flying towards the cliff where Wuzhan had lived.

The old Taoist in white robe retracted his two axes that were like a pair of silver wings, flew to the ground, and shouted, "They can't escape far, chase them!" More than a dozen people kept running, chasing Lingkongzi from below.

Qin Moyao didn't know why Ye Yi wanted to chase Wuzhan, so she shouted to the Emei disciples, "Let's follow him!" Yu Guizhou and Wei Ziyou followed closely behind Qin Moyao and chased towards the steep cliff.

Seeing that he was about to reach the middle of the cliff, Ling Kongzi almost lost consciousness in his wings and panted: "Little Master, I can't hold on any longer!"

If Ling Kongzi was injured and couldn't fly far, then Wanjiao would have no chance of escaping. Wuzhan said, "Put me on the cliff, I'll hold them back first, you go find Wanjiao!"

Before he finished speaking, several hidden weapons flew over from below. Wuzhan looked down and saw a group of people in strange clothes. The hidden weapons were thrown by them. They must be here to steal the pills.

Lingkongzi shouted loudly and blew out a breath wave, knocking down all the hidden weapons. He sank his wings and fell towards the rocks. Knowing that Wuzhan’s orders could not be disobeyed at this time, he put Wuzhan down and said, "What should I do if I find my little master's wife?"

Wuzhan grabbed the rock, his bones felt like they were pierced by a spike, and he gritted his teeth and shouted, "Take her away!"

Lingkongzi responded, flew away from the cliff and climbed to a higher place.

Wuzhan sighed in his heart: "Am I going to be buried here with Wanjiao?"
