Why do you always want to be my Taoist partner?

"Why is it late?" Youhuang asked in a deep voice.

"Why didn't you send Youlan away earlier?" Jiang Li asked.

"If possible, I would have wanted to send Youlan to the Eastern Region a long time ago, but firstly, Youlan is alone there and has only a vague understanding of the outside world. Secondly, due to some special reasons in the sect, I may not be able to really send her out of Zhongzhou."

"Because of the Dark Moon Blood Demon Sect?" Jiang Li asked.

Youhuang's eyebrows jumped suddenly, he looked up, and now his eyes looked at Jiang Li more seriously, "What do you know?"

"The Blood Soul Sect is colluding with the Dark Moon Blood Demon Sect. Every year, they send them a lot of Blood Soul Orbs for Jiang Xing and Jiang Mian to practice. Jiang Xing and Jiang Mian want to rely on the evil cultivation secrets to reach the Supreme Saint stage. Their plan has come to an end. You are also betting with them. If they win, the Blood Soul Sect can continue to exist. If they lose, not only you, but the entire Blood Soul Sect will be liquidated together, and few people will be able to escape."

What Jiang Li said were all reasonable inferences. If Jiang Xing and Jiang Mian's plans failed, the Xuepo Sect would definitely be destroyed. Not only the two major sects, but all the sects in the entire Zhongzhou would take action. This was inevitable.

"Jiang Xing and Jiang Mian are both at the tenth level of Mahayana. In the entire Zhongzhou, Mu Xuezhi and Ye Chen's cultivation is not as high as theirs. Even though they had heard the news, they never thought that the plan had come to an end. The situation in Zhongzhou was already settled. Why did Jiang Xing and Jiang Mian lose?"

"There is a change."

"Who?"

Jiang Li didn't say anything. "If I say yes, then of course there is. It's up to you whether you believe it or not. Jiang Xing and Jiang Mian will both die before the New Year, and the facts won't change at all."

Youhuang fell silent.

He picked up the teapot on the table, first added a bowl for Jiang Li, then added a bowl for himself. He was silent for a long time, "How do you know?"

"Knowing is knowing."

"Then why did you tell me?"

"I think I should come to see you, because I don't want Youlan to die here. I said, she is quite cute, and she is clean."

"But you just said it was too late."

"If she is to live, someone has to die."

Youhuang's emotions suddenly became a little agitated. He couldn't explain why the young man in front of him could make him so frightened. It was obvious that he had just released all his blood and energy, but Jiang Li in front of him did not show any fear or terror, as if he knew very well in his heart what he could rely on.

"I'm not afraid of death, but why should I believe you?"

"You will know the result tomorrow. It's too late to escape now." Jiang Li was silent for a moment, but still said this.

Youhuang's pupils dilated a little, "Mu Xuezhi has broken through to the Saint level? No... Impossible. If she breaks through to the Saint level, the whole Zhongzhou will feel it."

"The Lords of other domains are interfering in this matter?"

"Or has Ye Chen's formation reached the holy level? What on earth do you know... Tell me!!"

You Huang in front of him no longer had the calm and elegant demeanor he had before, and seemed a little crazy, but soon his expression gradually returned to normal. He hurriedly picked up the tea on the table and took a sip, smiling bitterly, "I lost my composure a little. The poisonous insect will make people more emotional."

"You will know the reason at the Blood Spirit Sect Conference tomorrow."

"Aren't you afraid that if you tell me in advance, I will take Youlan and escape first?"

"Where can you escape to? If you could escape, you would have left with Youlan long ago. Jiang Xing and Jiang Mian will not let you leave because you know their secrets. So you can only stay in the Blood Soul Sect. Jiang Xing must have left a mark on you long ago. The entire Zhongzhou can sense your presence. You have nowhere to escape."

Jiang Li guessed everything You Huang was thinking. You Huang in front of him seemed to be getting a little tired. He poured himself another cup of tea, raised his head, and his expression became a little ferocious, "Why should I believe you?"

"Whether you believe it or not, I am only giving you a choice. Actually... even if everything goes well tomorrow, when Jiang Xing and Jiang Mian are both dead, Youlan may not be able to escape from the Blood Soul Sect. By then, the Blood Soul Sect will appear in everyone's sight again, and her situation in Zhongzhou will become very dangerous. So I hope to send her out before that."

"Are you sure you can send Youlan to Zhongzhou safely?"

"I promise."

"what are you up to?"

"We'll see at noon tomorrow."

Youhuang remained silent, staring at Jiang Li in front of him. After a long time, he smiled bitterly and made a guess that even he himself could not believe.

"That so-called variable, is it you?"

................................................

Youlan waited outside the door for a long time.

Although she also wanted to stick to the door and eavesdrop, her father deliberately used a soundproofing formation so that she could not hear anything. She had no choice but to sit alone on the steps by the door, hugging her knees and waiting silently.

The snow was almost covering her ankles. Jiang Li finally walked out of the courtyard. He glanced at Youlan, who was sitting on the steps and seemed to be still angry. He reached out and rubbed her head. "Your father wants you to come over. He has something to tell you."

Youlan stood up and shook off the snow on her body. "What were you talking about just now? Why can't I listen?"

"Let's talk about something very important." Jiang Li's eyes were a little complicated.

Youlan glared at him, knowing that he would probably still say nothing, so she simply turned around and walked into the courtyard. Youhuang was still sitting there in the courtyard. When he saw her coming, he added a new cup of hot tea to her teapot.

"After tomorrow's Spirit Refining Conference, you will follow Jiang Li to the Eastern Region. He will take you to the Eastern Region to find a sect, and you will practice there. If you don't want to join a sect, then you can just be a casual cultivator."

Youhuang took out a storage ring and moved things into it little by little from another storage ring.

"Here are tens of millions of spirit stones. This is a heavenly-grade array disk, which is very easy to use. This piece of talisman paper is for saving your life. Put it together with these ones, don't mix them up. This pill can cure all kinds of poisons. This pill can improve your cultivation in a short period of time. Don't use it unless it's absolutely necessary..."

You Huang packed money for You Lan one by one. You Lan stared blankly at the man in front of her. Boundless fear suddenly enveloped her. Her tears suddenly couldn't stop falling from the corners of her eyes. She stared straight at her father, "I don't want to leave!"

You Huang raised You Lan from childhood, but he had never seen her cry. Every time he saw her crying, he would immediately and anxiously think of ways to cheer her up. But this time, You Huang's expression was very serious. He hesitated for a while, but finally just said, "Daddy is doing this for your own good, be obedient."

"What will happen to Daddy if I leave?"

The proud girl's cheeks were now covered with tear marks, and she looked as fragile as crystal that would shatter at the slightest touch.

You Huang did not sigh, but reached out his hand and gently rubbed her head. "Daddy has lived for nearly a thousand years, and has long disregarded life and death. All these years, Daddy's only wish to live is to raise you well. But more than ten years ago, because of the existence of Jiang Xing and Jiang Mian, Daddy had to continue to be the leader of the Blood Soul Sect, and was threatened by them, so that you would follow my old path and become an evil cultivator that everyone can kill."

"Now this opportunity is in front of me, I absolutely cannot miss it. I have already made an appointment with Jiang Li. Tomorrow... no matter what happens, after everything is over, he will take you away. After you go to the Eastern Region, never come back."

"I don't...I don't want to..."

"When you were little, didn't you always tell Daddy that you wanted to go out and play? But Daddy always controlled you and didn't let you go. Now that you've grown up and can go out and play by yourself, why are you disobeying him again?"

Youhuang sighed softly and looked gently at his only daughter in front of him.

Whenever he saw Youlan, he would always recall her mother. The day he was expelled from the sect, the delicate appearance of that bright and pretty girl in a red dress sitting on the bluestone was still engraved in his mind today and would not fade away for a long time.

Youlan could only sit there at this moment, her shoulders trembling, but she had gradually realized that no matter what she said, it was meaningless. Youhuang had already made up his mind. No matter how much she cried or begged, Youhuang would not let her stay.

Youhuang put the storage ring on Youlan's hand, and at this moment his words inevitably became nagging.

"The monks in the Eastern Region are more gentle. You must not become bloodthirsty there..."

"Not all people in the outside world will coax you like they do in the Blood Soul Sect. Some people may greet you with a smile, but they may be full of trouble. You have to open your eyes and watch carefully."

"You must keep the secret that you are a Chaos Body well hidden. You must never tell anyone else. Do you understand?"

Youhuang talked a lot, but Youlan just sat there blankly, as if she didn't listen at all. Youhuang's expression softened a little, "Sending you away from Zhongzhou and getting rid of your identity as an evil cultivator is your father's greatest wish in his life. You must be obedient and don't be so willful as before."

Youlan suddenly felt very cold. She looked up blankly, her eyes already red. Her dark eyes looked at Youhuang in front of her. She already had an answer in her heart that made her tremble with fear.

"What about you, Daddy?"

You Huang poured the last cup of tea in the teapot to the two of them.

"This wish has been fulfilled. Daddy wants to go see your mother."

His eyes turned to the boiling hot tea on the table.

In fact, he has never liked drinking tea. Compared to drinking tea, he prefers drinking alcohol. But Luo Qingyan is addicted to tea. He has been drinking with her for hundreds of years and gradually fell in love with it.

The snowflakes in front of him drifted into the tea bowl, and his hesitation did not stop him. He suddenly recalled that a long time ago, he was woken up early in the morning by a pretty girl in a red dress, who pulled his arm and asked him to accompany her to collect every piece of first snow that fell on the grass and trees to make tea.

Chapter 252: Chapter Two Swords

Jiang Li sat alone on the steps for a long time, until the snowflakes almost buried his calves, and then he heard Youlan's footsteps.

Youlan's eyes were fixed on his face.

"What did you tell my dad?"

"I told him that the Dark Moon Blood Evil Sect's plan would definitely fail, and the Blood Soul Sect would be doomed, so he wanted to send you to the East Region first."

"What will happen tomorrow?"

"You'll find out tomorrow."

"Tell me!" Youlan bit her lips tightly and once again activated the heart-eating poison in Jiang Li's body.

She thought she would never be able to urge it again in her life. Jiang Li in front of her began to tremble, but he still didn't say a word. Youlan just stared at him, watching his facial features twisted, his body curled up, and he fell in the snow.

But he still didn't make any sound.

She finally got rid of the heart-eating poison. She looked at Jiang Li who was slowly getting up from the ground in front of her, and two lines of tears rolled down from the corners of her eyes.

"why?"

....................................

Youlan finally returned to the courtyard with Jiang Li.

Youlan ignored him and went back to her room, locking herself inside. Jiang Li stood under a tree in the courtyard and silently built a snowman.

He also liked snowy days. He remembered that Youlan used the formation to create the snow in order to make a snowman, but now he was the only one left making the snowman.

But he still worked hard on the snowman for a long time. After he finished building the snowman, Dabai lay on his shoulders. He walked out of the courtyard and began to move among the mountains. Soon he came to the dungeon of the Blood Soul Sect. He was holding Youhuang's identity jade card, so no one stopped him. He came in front of Jiang Huanyang, and Jiang Huanyang slowly stood up.

"Give."

Jiang Li handed the purple flower to Jiang Huanyang.

This purple ghost flower was obtained in the Wanhua Valley. After eating it, even if one is in the initial stage of foundation building, his cultivation will directly jump to the tenth level of fusion. However, the only side effect is that one will forget his lover. This purple ghost flower is of no use to Jiang Li. What he needs now is not cultivation, but the strength of his soul and the understanding of sword power. These two things are what suppress the Dark Moon Immortal. On the contrary, the higher his cultivation, the easier it is for him to be backlashed by the Dark Moon Immortal.

"Just eat it."

Jiang Huanyang took the flower and put it into his mouth and chewed it slowly. The purple flower contained the spiritual energy and power of rules that were enough for him to break through, so it did not cause any disturbance in the world. Jiang Huanyang could feel that his cultivation was rising steadily. He looked at Jiang Li in front of him in a daze, "What about you?"

"Of course I have a way. You don't have to worry about me. The only thing you have to do tomorrow is to contain those elders in the Fusion Stage. Don't think about killing them. No one will be able to escape tomorrow."

Jiang Huanyang nodded.

"understood."

Jiang Li turned around and walked out of the dungeon, but Jiang Huanyang suddenly called him, "Brother Jiang."

"Huh?" Jiang Li turned his head and looked at him in confusion.

Jiang Huanyang's face showed a bit of confusion. He hesitated for a long time and finally asked, "Brother Jiang, what do you think... I should do?"

"It's a bit ridiculous, right? I hesitated for a long time and couldn't make a decision, and finally came to ask others." Jiang Huanyang slowly lowered his head, seeming a little ashamed.

Jiang Li stopped and thought seriously, "It's useless to ask me this question. I'm on a different side from you, but what I'm going to do next is to save Jiang Chuyue. I'll kill anyone who stands in my way."

After Jiang Li finished speaking, he left the dungeon, walked through the wind and snow, and returned to the courtyard. In the courtyard, a girl in a black dress was staring at the snowman in a daze.

Jiang Li walked to her side and said, "It's cold outside, go back to bed early."

"Get out of here." Youlan said coldly.

Jiang Li was speechless, so he had to sit back under the tree. But after a while, You Huang came to him again, her eyes red, "I will give you everything I have, and I will be your puppy from now on. Please, please... spare my father, okay?"

Jiang Li was silent for a while, "I'm sorry."

"Please... please... Jiang Li... please... I don't want my father to die..."

Jiang Li heard the girl crying, her voice trembling. The next second, Jiang Li saw her knees soften and she knelt in front of him. Her tears were burning and her beautiful eyes were filled with the humblest plea.

"Perhaps this is the best ending. For your father, it has always been his lifelong wish that you can get rid of your identity as an evil cultivator and live a good life. And in order to fulfill this wish, he has to pay something."

"I don't want to...I don't want this..."

Jiang Li didn't say anything else. The heavy snow drifted past the two of them. Youlan just knelt down in front of him. Her pride, contempt, and playfulness were completely shattered at this moment. Her body was so thin that it seemed like it would be buried by the snow at any time.

Jiang Li looked at her cheek, but in the end he couldn't say anything.

His purpose in coming to the Blood Soul Sect was to kill Youhuang, and then use the memory images in Youhuang's blood soul bead as ironclad evidence of the collusion between the Dark Moon Blood Evil Sect and the Blood Soul Sect. But in fact, Jiang Li was shaken for a moment. He could ignore everything in the Blood Soul Sect, he could let go of the justice in his heart, because he was a selfish person, but he would still take action against the Dark Moon Blood Evil Sect. After the destruction of the Dark Moon Blood Evil Sect, the Blood Soul Sect would also be divided up by a group of righteous monks. As the saint of the Blood Soul Sect, Youlan would never have a chance to leave Zhongzhou alive.

So, he made a deal with Youhuang.

He swore a vow that after the Soul Refining Conference ended tomorrow, he would take Youlan and leave the Blood Soul Sect.

Youhuang then refined his own soul into his soul flag, which would then become irrefutable evidence to prove that the Dark Moon Blood Evil Sect was in collusion with him.

And tomorrow, he will perform a play with Youhuang.

Although this was the best outcome, he really couldn't deny that he was the indirect culprit who caused Youhuang's death. Because he wanted to save Jiang Chuyue, Youhuang would definitely die, Jiang Xing would also die, and Jiang Mian would also die. Many people would die in this simple plan of his.
