There are always fairies plotting against me

Zhu Nanzhi thought silently that she could take Xiao Li away today, and then return to the sect as quickly as possible to investigate her husband's identity, and then give him a surprise.

If my husband knew that I was the Saint of Qingmiao Palace, he would definitely be very happy. After all, he personally caused the Saint to fall for more than half a year. My husband must have felt a sense of excitement in his heart...

"Well, as a saint, I have to be a little reserved when I meet my husband. By creating a sense of contrast, I can make him think that I am the saint who has fallen. This will definitely arouse his animal desires and make him... "

Zhu Nanzhi smiled foolishly, and wondered what to do if her husband came first?

After all, she didn't even hide her body from her husband, let alone her name.

In addition, since she will return to inherit the position of the Saint and will no longer practice in seclusion, it is more likely that her husband will understand her first.

While thinking, Han Wu suddenly said, "Li Huangquan had one arm cut off."

"It's over?" Zhu Nanzhi's eyes lit up. Can he take Xiao Li back to the palace?

"not yet……"

"Tsk."

Zhu Nanzhi looked into the distance with a lack of interest. Has her husband left Nanzhuo Territory now?

Chapter 18 "Huh? Husband!?"

Blood Emperor Sect, meeting hall.

Lu Jinan, who was sitting in the first seat, was playing with the short sword engraved with blood-red patterns in his hand, and his eyes were calm as he watched the rain outside which had subsided a little.

Sitting on the steps below with his chin propped up by his hands, Xia Ming yawned. "Big Brother, who do you think will win?"

"It's obvious." Lu Jin'an lowered his eyelids slightly, looking at the eyes reflected in the dagger. "Lin Mu's luck has grown as the Blood Emperor Sect repeatedly targeted him and escaped danger. On the contrary, every time the Blood Emperor Sect failed, they lost some manpower and resources, resulting in Lin Mu taking all the benefits, and his luck has declined instead of increased.

Talent and hard work are your own, and luck and strength will expand with experience and vision. As long as you don't slack off, winning is just a matter of time."

"Luck..." Xia Ming turned his head to look at Lu Jinan: "Big Brother, do you think luck or talent is more important?"

"Reincarnation is a skill." Lu Jinan jokingly continued, "But talent and hard work are more important, especially in the world of immortal cultivation. After all, most cultivators have similar luck.

The higher your talent and the harder you work, the wider the world you can explore, the more powerful people you can meet, the richer your experiences, the more you will understand, and the more confident you will be in yourself. Only then does luck become the decisive factor besides talent and hard work."

"I understand." Xia Ming nodded quickly. "Although the ability to reincarnate is important, most cultivators have similar backgrounds. No matter how hard they try, they are limited by their talents and can only be trapped in one place for their entire lives, let alone meet more powerful cultivators. Is that what you mean?"

"Yeah." Lu Jinan smiled. "Even our Wandao Sect wouldn't come here to recruit disciples. It can only be that talented and hardworking cultivators here will one day leave here on their own and at some point in the future either join on their own or be spotted by the elders of the sect and brought back."

"Just like Lin Mu, who came from a small town and gradually became famous in Nanzhuo Domain." Xia Ming patted his knees: "If he didn't have talent and didn't work hard, he would still be mediocre no matter how lucky he was, right?"

"Ah."

"No wonder many of the great families I've come into contact with along with the deputy clan leader dislike useless individuals within their clan. Some families even directly remove them from their family tree... Although they may have good luck and a good reincarnation, without talent, they are nothing."

"After all, the world of immortal cultivation is based on individual strength." Lu Jinan looked outside again: "Besides, no matter how useless the so-called useless people from the big families are, they can't reach the bottom of the world of immortal cultivation, and..."

"what--"

A shrill scream rang out from outside. Xia Ming hurried out to investigate, but returned moments later: "The blood of the Blood Emperor Sect's elderly, weak, women, and children has been drained, and has flown far away."

click!

Lu Jinan inserted the dagger into the armrest, and spiritual energy surged around him. A hint of coldness appeared in his eyes. "Also, some people in the upper realm have found a way to prevent useless people from appearing in their descendants."

Xia Ming realized that the senior brother was continuing what he had just said, and saw that the senior brother was holding a short sword with a bloody glow on the sword body, shooting out and disappearing in the rain.

Lu Jinan said quietly, "They use secret methods to allow the 'useless' in the clan to possess the bodies of those with good fortune, thus turning the 'useless' into 'geniuses'. If the 'genius' they cultivate is stronger than the geniuses cultivated by the clan, they will make a lot of money. If they just break even, they won't lose money either..."

Even if it doesn't grow, it doesn't matter, because all they lose is a piece of waste material."

······

Above the ancient tomb, the blood balls formed by the condensation of blood energy turned the sky and the earth into a scarlet color, showing a gloomy and terrifying look.

A blood-qi formation covering hundreds of kilometers covered the earth. On the earth, the evil cultivators of the Blood Emperor Sect and its affiliated forces had their blood drained and turned into mummies, with the fear of death still on their shriveled faces.

Not only the demon cultivators, but even the cultivators of the [Nanzhuo Alliance] were killed in this formation by Li Huangquan, and about 50% to 60% of them were sacrificed in blood.

Lin Mu stared at Li Huangquan, who only had one arm left, with a grim expression: "You didn't even let your subordinates and relatives go?"

"Those who achieve great things don't care about trivial matters. They died for me, and their deaths were worthy!" Li Huangquan wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and grinned: "As long as I am here, the Blood Emperor Sect will always be here, and the entire Nanzhuo Region will become my disciples!"

"You are truly cruel and ruthless, worthy of the word beast!"

"It's just a matter of victors and losers!" Li Huangquan looked up at the blood-red ball of light formed by the blood sacrifice, his spiritual power supporting this last trump card. "If you die today, you and the Nanzhuo Alliance behind you will be infamous!"

After saying that, he looked at Lin Mu again: "I just didn't expect that after I got all the benefits in the ancient tomb, you could still break through to the Zuozhao realm!"

Lin Mu took a deep breath and said, "Although you took away most of the treasures in the ancient tomb, you certainly didn't expect that the best treasure was on the bones of the tomb owner!"

Hearing this, Li Huangquan's expression darkened. "I see. But it doesn't matter. No matter what you get, don't even think about blocking this move of mine... ahem!"

Lin Mu's eyes were sharp: "With your current spiritual power, can you support this magic? And you are not the only one with a trump card!"

Li Huangquan's pupils shrank. He didn't know whether Lin Mu was bluffing, but now that things had come to this, he couldn't give the other party any more chances.

He raised his only remaining right hand and shouted fiercely: "Blood Emperor Great Law!"

Boom boom boom——

The blood ball hovering in the sky released an astonishing pressure, but it only rolled forward a little. The next second, it seemed to be pulled by an invisible force and flew towards the back.

Li Huangquan's expression changed: "What's going on?!"

But at this moment, he didn't care why his magic was out of his control, and he immediately followed the trajectory of the blood ball.

Lin Mu frowned, but chased after him without much hesitation. He must kill this demon today and restore order to Nanzhuo Territory!

"Brother Lin..." Xiao Li's face changed slightly. Worried that it was Li Huangquan's trick, the others couldn't help but chase after him.

"Xiao Li ran away with Lin Mu." Han Wu quickly reminded Zhu Nanzhi who was distracted.

Zhu Nanzhi came back to his senses and frowned: "What a hassle."

I was thinking that I could separate Xiao Li and the guy surnamed Lin here and take him away directly, but in the end I had to run.

Zhu Nanzhi controlled the flying sword without saying a word and chased after him. Because of the "Taishang Wangqing Xianjue", he really couldn't let Xiao Li take away without saying goodbye to that person surnamed Lin. It would be bad if something happened to his Taoism.

Above the Blood Emperor Sect, the blood ball stopped.

Li Huangquan, who had been chasing all the way, had no time to catch his breath before he felt himself being pulled into the meeting hall by a tremendous power the next second.

"Who is that... Immortal?!"

Li Huangquan, filled with shock and anger, saw the figure sitting in the first seat. His expression was filled with ecstasy, and he immediately crawled over and said, "Immortal, save me!"

Lin Mu, who followed closely and stepped into the threshold, listened to Li Huangquan's excited voice, and looked forward with a slightly changed expression.

In the sight, the young man sitting in the first seat of the Blood Emperor Sect waited until Li Huangquan came over, then slowly pulled out the dagger on the armrest and stabbed it directly into Li Huangquan's crown.

Watching the wailing Li Huangquan being drained of blood and turned into a dried corpse, and listening to the joyful sound of the dagger, Lin Mu felt a chill all over his body.

When did the Blood Emperor Sect rely on such a demonic cultivator?

Lu Jinan, holding the sword, shook off the corpse and looked down at Lin Mu: "You..."

"Huh? Husband!?"

······

Chapter 19 The husband sings and the wife follows

"Huh? Husband!?"

A gentle tone mixed with surprise and joy rang out in the rain and fell in the hall.

A figure in fluttering clothes rushed into the hall, instantly adding a touch of brightness to the gloomy atmosphere.

The moment Zhu Nanzhi saw Lu Jinan, her originally cold face that was about to bloom became like a blooming plum blossom on a snowy mountain. Although she was wearing light makeup and plain clothes, she was as poetic as a painting.

Her dark blue hair was as light as flowing clouds, and her steps were equally brisk. In the blink of an eye, she was in front of Lu Jinan, sitting on his thighs naturally, her arms wrapped around his neck, her eyebrows curved, and her voice was like a gurgling stream: "Why is my husband here?"

Lu Jinan was not surprised by Zhu Nanzhi's arrival. He had originally thought that if Zhu Nanzhi came here to recruit disciples for Qingmiao Palace, then maybe they would meet and he could give her another surprise.

Facing Zhu Nanzhi, who had only been apart for one night but acted like they had been apart for a long time, Lu Jinan put his arm around her waist and asked in surprise, "Why are you here too?"

"Of course I was attracted to you, my husband." Zhu Nanzhi's sky-blue eyes were filled with joy. She leaned softly into Lu Jinan's arms, her breath sweet as orchid: "Your husband and I are truly destined to be together~"

Listening to her coquettish words, smelling the fragrance from her hair, and feeling the touch of her soft body under her clothes, Lu Jinan's body instinctively went beyond the control of his brain.

Zhu Nanzhi's eyebrows curved, and the shallow breathing at the tip of her nose gradually became disordered: "Appearance..."

"Be good!" Lu Jinan quickly raised his hand and covered her delicate face: "I still have things to take care of."

"Hmph~" Zhu Nanzhi snorted softly and sniffed the scent on his neck in fascination. Although she stopped acting coquettishly, she did not move away from Lu Jinan's thigh: "I will not disturb my husband~"

"Wasn't it Mr. Lu last night?" Lu Jinan joked.

"How can a habit formed in a year and a half be easily broken?" Zhu Nanzhi glared at him. "Unlike you, you can only call me 'wife' a few times~"

"The main reason is that I didn't expect to meet you again so soon." Lu Jinan smiled and turned to look at Lin Mu and the girl who walked to his side.

This girl is most likely the purpose of Zhu Nanzhi's trip, otherwise she would not come.

"Concubine..." Zhu Nanzhi paused and changed her address. After all, seeing each other so soon, her husband must still be worried about the "wife poisoning" incident in his heart: "I didn't expect to see Master Lu again so soon."

"That's good." Lu Jinan said softly, "I can see you again before I leave."

Zhu Nanzhi's eyes were a little misty, her husband's words were so nice~

"Let's talk about this first." Lu Jinan patted Zhu Nanzhi's soft waist and motioned her to stand up.

Zhu Nanzhi left obediently, and when Lu Jinan stood up and took a step, she followed him closely, her eyes full of him.

At this moment, Han Wu, standing at the door of the hall, stared blankly at Lu Jinan, feeling that his mind was a little confused.

Wasn't this guy transformed into a sword spirit? Why is he here?

Since he hadn't been refined into a sword spirit, why didn't he go back with the Saint Lady last night? And why didn't the Saint Lady mention him last night?

She had always thought she was in a bad mood because the Saint Lady had transformed her lover into a sword spirit, but...what was going on now?!

What happened last night?

Hanwu couldn't figure it out, and then he felt a pair of eyes looking at him. He turned his head and saw that the eyes of a girl about his age met his, and then he also looked at her.

Lu Jinan came to a stop in front of Lin Mu, and Zhu Nanzhi also stopped. At this time, he pointed and whispered, "I came here because of this girl named Xiao Li."

Lu Jinan looked at her in surprise and said, "It's because of Lin Mu."

Upon hearing this, Zhu Nanzhi's eyes lit up. Are she and her husband so destined to be together?

I came here first to enter the world, and second to bring Xiao Li back. I didn't expect that the reason why my husband came here could be related to me... Wait!

Could it be that my husband came to Nanzhuoyu to enter the world, so he didn't refuse my marriage?

Plus, he also wants to refine himself into a sword spirit, so it is very likely that he is the saint son of another sect who practices the way of forgetfulness... It's simply a match made in heaven!

Zhu Nanzhi's voice was filled with joy: "Are you recruiting disciples, sir?"

After hearing this, Lin Mu and Xiao Li looked at each other. Although they were still nervous about the two strangers in front of them, they relaxed a little.

"No." Lu Jinan shook his head: "I wanted to kill him."

As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Mu's face changed immediately. Without any hesitation, he pulled Xiao Li and flew backwards.

However, the state of sitting meditation is nothing compared to the state of enlightenment.

Lu Jinan paused, and within a few inches he had already reached out to break Lin Mu's spiritual defense, grabbed the other's neck and threw him to the ground.

boom!

The powerful stranglehold caused spider-web-like cracks to appear on the floor beneath Lin Mu's back. Lin Mu even vomited blood, his expression instantly becoming ferocious due to the pain. He grabbed Lu Jinan's wrists tightly with both hands, but to no avail.

"Are you afraid that I will kill you..." Lu Jinan looked down at Lin Mu calmly: "Or are you afraid of something else, huh?"

"Brother Lin!!!" Xiao Li screamed and rushed forward. Even when facing Zhu Nanzhi who took a step forward to block her way, she attacked without holding back.

However, the gap between Xiao Li and Zhu Nanzhi is greater than the gap between Lin Mu and Lu Jinan, because she is only in the Yun Dao realm... Even if she awakened the flawless immortal body in her anger at this moment, she is still only in the Yun Dao realm.

Zhu Nanzhi only gave Xiao Li an indifferent look, and she fell to her knees on the floor uncontrollably. Every bone in her body was groaning under the weight. She tried hard to reach out, but could only utter a painful but worried sound: "Lin, Brother Lin..."

Han Wu's face changed as she watched this scene from a distance. The Palace Master meant to bring back Xiao Li, who possessed a flawless immortal body. What the Saint Lady was doing now...
