A life of clearness

Chapter 610 Not Against My Will
Rong Qing pursed her lips and raised her hand to take the jade slip in front of her.

A ray of spiritual consciousness immediately penetrated into the jade slip and took a quick look through it.

Upon seeing this, a strange look appeared on his face.

"Do you understand?" Daojun Yanlu asked with a smile.

Rong Qing nodded.

"In that case, your two princes should go back and make good preparations." said Yanlu Daojun.

The teapot on each person's table was automatically lifted up and a line of tea was poured into the cup until it was full.

This visit was not in vain as they were able to obtain such important information as the jade slip, so the Donglin Sect's trip was not in vain, so everyone said nothing more and drank the cup to their heart's content.

……

After returning, Yuan Cheng and others read the contents of the black jade slip.

Only then did I understand why Taoist Yan Lu was so sure that Rong Qing would be the first one.

Donglin Zong Xingxing whispered: "Haijiu is indeed a genius, but he is also of low character. It's a pity to waste such a good talent."

He shook his head.

According to the jade slip, Haijiu is of royal bloodline of the demon clan, with a strong body made of steel and iron, and rare innate magical powers. He ranks among the top ten in terms of combat power among the demon cultivators in the East Heaven. But at the same time, he is extremely lustful and likes married women the most. Most of the wives in his harem are wives he plundered from others.

"This monster loves to humiliate female cultivators during battles. If there are monsters present who love this female cultivator, Haijiu will be even more excited..." Donglin Sect's walker glanced at Yuan Cheng obscurely. He didn't know how much Haijiu knew about Beitian's prodigy, but Yuan Cheng's thoughts were probably completely exposed to this monster.

But thinking about it the other way around, maybe it can help...

Rong Qing supported her chin with one hand and turned the black jade slip with the other, a little puzzled: "Lord Dongchen actually sent such an evil demon here, what is his plan?"

The more Rong Qing thought about it, the more strange it became.

Beitian would never allow Dongtian's prodigy to shine in the sequence battle. Even if Dongtian sent the strongest demon cultivator or devil cultivator in the God Transformation Realm, the result would be the same. So it was normal to send the Sea Eagle, who had some strength but was not the top one. However, this demon might be remarkable in terms of combat power, but his behavior was completely unbearable. Sending him here would simply create a disaster.

As for Beitian... Lord Futu appointed Taoist Wansheng as the team leader, which seemed to mean that all the princes should take Prince Jin as the leader.

Although the character of King Jin is acceptable, he always does things his own way and does not care about what others think.

The thought of the King of Jin and the Sea Eagle colliding with each other made people's scalps numb. Especially since His Highness Yu Yu was also here, the Sea Eagle would definitely reveal its true nature and cause a dispute, and how could the King of Jin sit back and watch!

Rong Qing really doubted: What on earth do the two lords want to do? !

"No matter what Lord Dongchen is planning, we must not act rashly without his clear instructions." Donglin Sect's Xingxing said, "That is to say, we must save his life while defeating him, and we must not even damage his foundation."

Donglin Zong walked and looked at Yuan Cheng.

Among the twelve geniuses who came here, he believed that Yuan Cheng was the most confident in fulfilling the above requirements. This was because Yuan Cheng's understanding of the origin of the Tao far surpassed his peers, and he also comprehended the most profound avenue of time and space.

Although there will be many Daojuns protecting the geniuses of both sides during the battle, Beitian always wants to see their own geniuses win quickly rather than letting the Daojuns take action.

Yuan Cheng nodded silently, understanding what Dong Linzong meant.

Rong Qing thought to herself that if I were really the first one to fight against the Sea Eagle, I would have at least a 70% chance of defeating the opponent in the first round.

However, on the surface, she seemed to be relieved, and smiled at Yuan Cheng, "With Your Highness here, the burden on my shoulders instantly dissipated."

Hearing this, the young man in white's eyelashes trembled slightly, and he turned his head slightly unnaturally: "You are from my Donglin Sect, and helping you is my duty."

Rong Qing smiled.

She naturally wouldn't take Yuan Cheng's words seriously. Helping you is a favor, not helping is my duty. She wasn't so shameless as to team up with the big guys and really lie down and do nothing. If she performed poorly in the first battle, even with Yuan Cheng's back, Rong Qing would feel ashamed.

Dong Lin Zong Xing's eyes wandered between the young man and woman, and suddenly said, "Since Daojun Yanlu said that you are very likely to be the first to fight, why don't you two have a good discussion and see how you can complete the first and second battles and completely cut off the challenge of Hai Jiu before King Jin."

interesting.

Upon hearing this, the couple of Daozun from Donglin Sect couldn't help but curl their lips. They didn't need to think too much and said directly: "We are looking forward to seeing what kind of expression Wansheng will have when we win the victory first. But it's useless for us to think too much now. We still have to see the layout and arrangements of the two princes."

"That's right." Donglin Sect's walking official said, "In order to avoid you feeling constrained, we old guys won't sit around doing nothing. Let's go get together with those old guys and ask about their plans. Anyway, don't worry, we'll take care of everything."

"It's extreme, it's extreme."

Rong Qing: ???
Rong Qing was simply stunned as she watched the three seniors leave in a hurry, talking to themselves, as if they were afraid that she would ask them to stay.

As for that. She didn't feel constrained in discussing countermeasures. On the contrary, she felt stressed when the three seniors who provided advice suddenly disappeared.

There is no one else who is good-looking now, Rong Qing can only look at Yuan Cheng.

She thought for a moment and said, "If I want Haijiu to be willing to fight with Your Highness immediately even though he has exhausted all his energy in a battle with me, I have to start with his personality and make Haijiu think that I am the one Your Highness loves. In this way, even if Your Highness wants to replace me in the middle of the battle, he will not refuse... but will be more interested."

Yuan Cheng turned his head back in surprise, facing Rong Qing. His eyes, like cold stars, reflected her figure.

Without any external distractions, Rong Qing carefully looked at Yuan Cheng's face and had to admit that Yuan Cheng's beauty was extremely striking and could easily make people fall in love with her. Her naturally cold temperament made ordinary people even more eager to make a move.

"But now the King of Jin has made no secret of his closeness to Yu Yu, so I think what Daojun Yanlu said is not absolute. It is possible that Hai Jiu will choose to challenge Yu Yu to start a dispute. The strength of each prince is not that different. Princess Yu Yu must be sure of defeating Hai Jiu. If she really wins, Yu Yu's side will come out on top." Rong Qing said slowly: "So in order to make Hai Jiu take our bait, the only way is for the princess to use the marriage contract with me as bait."

Yuan Cheng's heart suddenly jumped.

But Rong Qing hadn't finished her words yet: "But your highness's marriage is such a big deal. It's ridiculous to sacrifice Donglin Sect and your highness's reputation just for a challenge. In addition, no matter how well you cover up your actions, there will always be clues. Therefore, this plan is simply the worst option. It's better for me to take the initiative to challenge him when he speaks rudely. With the jade slip given by the Lord, I am 100% sure if nothing unexpected happens."

At this time, even if it is only seven or eight points, you have to ensure it becomes ten points.

Being the first to fight was very stressful. If she didn't fight well, not only would the morale of the Donglin Sect be ruined, especially since she was the one who took the initiative to challenge the enemy. But while Rong Qing felt the pressure, she was also secretly excited.

The last time she fought with Zi Cheyue, she didn't enjoy the fight enough. This time, she met a demon cultivator from the East Heaven. Not only was his combat power amazing, but his fighting style was also significantly different from that of the North Heaven. Even though the jade slips provided a lot of information, there were still a lot of unknowns and dangers that Rong Qing had to challenge and overcome on her own. How could she not be eager to fight?

Even though Rong Qing said a lot, there is actually only one core idea: let me go first!
Rong Qing looked at Yuan Cheng expectantly, but the other party remained silent for a long while.

"Your Highness?" Rong Qing asked in confusion.

There seemed to be a thousand words in Yuan Cheng's beautiful eyes, but he finally closed his eyes and said, "Alright. Daoyou has a prosperous martial arts fortune, but it has not been long since he broke through the ninth level. Compared to me, he needs this battle to consolidate his cultivation. I have no doubt that Daoyou can win. As for the ranking issue you are worried about... you can rest assured that Donglin Sect will definitely do its best to facilitate the first battle and calm the gossips of those villains."

It seems that Yuan Cheng believed that the reason why Rong Qing was so anxious was that he wanted to gain a foothold in Donglin Sect through military achievements as soon as possible.

Rong Qing did not deny it, because there are indeed benefits in this regard.

"Your Highness, your words are enough." Rong Qing stood up and bowed to Yuan Cheng.

The young man in white also stood up to return the greeting.

Now that the matter was settled, Rong Qing felt that there was nothing to chat about with Yuan Cheng about family matters, so she used the excuse of retreating to say goodbye and leave.

However, at the moment she stepped out of the door, the young man in white who was left behind by her suddenly said, "You are wrong in just one point, fellow Taoist."

Yuan Cheng's voice is clear and like broken jade.

“It’s not against my will.”
