"You're Bao 'er, right? You're so powerful at such a young age. You're a rare talent. "
"The Hermit Peak has treated you well. Why do you want our treasure?" The Head Master looked at Bao 'er.
"Cut the crap. Let me go or I'll kill him." Bao 'er's eyes were filled with murderous intent.
"Is there no room for negotiation? Or, explain to me your real identity and the force behind you, "the Head Master pressed.
"I'll say it again. Let me go."
"Ah ~ ~ ~"
Bao 'er didn't answer. Instead, she intensified her attack on Xing Jue's spirit and spirit. Xing Jue cried out in pain again.
"Head Master!!!!" Seeing this, Elder Zhuge was so anxious that he broke out in a cold sweat. He was really afraid that his proud disciple would be killed just like that.
"Sigh ~ ~" Seeing that Bao'er refused to back down, the Sect Leader shook his head helplessly. He then raised his head and said to the pagoda,
He looked up and said, "Grandma Silkworm, as you can see, your disciple is so stubborn. Do you want to do it yourself or do you want me to do it?"
"I'll deal with my disciple myself!!!" An old lady's voice came from the tower.
"Phew ~ ~ ~"
At the same time, a majestic aura swept down like a storm, like a shapeless tidal wave. It was so swift that it instantly swallowed Xing Jue and Xing Jue.
"Ah ~ ~ ~"
At that moment, Xing Jue felt his vision blur. He didn't know if the powerful force had knocked him out, or if his Sea of Energy and Origin of Soul had been damaged. However, he could vaguely hear the noise around him.
"Asshole, let me go, you old lady. Let me go …"
"Xing Jue, Xing Jue, don't be afraid. I'm here. I'll protect you and your life …"
"Grandma Silkworm, your disciple has committed a serious crime. I think we have to …"
"Idiot, I'm sorry …"
…
Several days had passed since the incident at the Tower. Executioner was lying in his room at the moment. He was much better than before, but his face was still pale. He was in a deep sleep.
"Bao Er ~ ~ ~ ~ ~"
Suddenly, Xing Jue sat up and shouted as if he had just woken up from a horrible nightmare.
During the few days that Xing Jue was unconscious, there were only five words lingering in his mind, "Idiot, I'm sorry …"
These five words were like a curse, lingering and lingering in Xing Jue's ears and mind.
"Wu ~ ~ ~" However, when he woke up, a sharp pain came from his chest, causing him to be unable to endure it, and his body twitched.
"Xing Jue, don't move. The pill has not completely fused with your body." At this moment, Elder Zhuge suddenly appeared in the room and hurriedly supported Xing Jue.
At this moment, Xing Jue realized that his Sea of Energy and Soul Source, which had been destroyed by Bao'er that day, had mostly recovered. It was just that they had not fully recovered yet. She must have consumed some precious medicinal pills.
"Master, where's Bao 'er? How is she? What are you going to do with her? " However, at this moment, Xing Jue was not concerned about his own injuries. What he cared about the most was Bao'er's safety.
"Alas, she has hurt you to this extent, why do you still care about her so much? Haven't you found out that you have been used by her?" Elder Zhuge sighed. There was a trace of helplessness on his old face, as if he had expected better from Elder Zhuge.
"How is she?" Xing Jue continued to ask, completely ignoring what Elder Zhuge was saying.
"Don't ask!!! You will not see her in the future. "
"Also, don't mention this name again. Don't mention this to anyone."
"You have to know how much effort I have put in to wash away the suspicion of you from the Supreme Headmaster so that you will not be implicated by her."
"This matter is now a secret. If it were to be spread, even I would not be able to protect you." Seeing that Xing Jue insisted on asking, Elder Zhuge's face was filled with displeasure. Then, he waved his sleeve and left the room.
"Bao'er is not using me. I have no value for her to use. She is saving me and helping me clear my name."
"Damn it, where did I go wrong? Why did Master and the Supreme Headmaster arrive so quickly? Is there a barrier that I can't detect? "
At this moment, Xing Jue was very uneasy. He knew that Bao'er had done that to save him. In order to make the act more real, she had hurt him. It was because Bao'er would not be able to escape in front of experts like the Supreme Headmaster and Granny Celestial Silkworm.
Therefore, no matter how others understood or said, he would not believe that Bao'er was using him. She was nice to Xing Jue just to use Xing Jue to threaten the Hermit Peak at a critical moment. This was too absurd.
At least, this was the case for Xing Jue. After all, only Xing Jue knew what Bao'er had done for him.
However, Xing Jue was also unwilling to accept this failure. He could feel that even if the Supreme Headmaster and the others had come a little later, the door would definitely have been opened. Perhaps he and Bao'er would have been able to get the Rakshasa Stone and escape.
Logically speaking, even if Bao'er had crippled the disciple's cultivation and a disciple had informed the elder, it would not have alerted people like the Supreme Headmaster and his Master. Even Granny Celestial Silkworm had come. After all, people like them were all busy dealing with Mount Wu.
Therefore, Xing Jue felt that something must have gone wrong. Either someone was secretly monitoring their every move.
Or, there was a mechanism outside the Rakshasa Forbidden Ground that he could not detect. As long as he touched it, it could inform the leaders of the Hermit Peak.
"Bao'er, you must be alright. As long as you don't die, I will definitely save you."
Suddenly, Xing Jue clenched his fists and his eyes flickered. He was really worried that Bao'er would be sentenced to death by the Hermit Peak. Even so, with his current strength, there was nothing he could do.
Therefore, he could only pray silently. He prayed that the Supreme Headmaster and Granny Celestial Silkworm would spare Bao'er's life on account of her talent and extraordinary strength. They would choose to enlighten her instead of punishing her.
Later on, Xing Jue realized that it was just as his Master had said. The other disciples and elders of the Hermit Peak did not know what had happened that day at all.
They only knew that Bao'er had crippled a disciple's cultivation and was now locked up by Granny Celestial Silkworm. As for Xing Jue, he could only hope that she was really just locked up.
In the following days, Xing Jue did not go out again. He began to cultivate and condense the Power of Asura. He used the fifth-grade Body Refining Essence to temper his body. After completing his daily cultivation, he continued to refine elixirs according to the Book of Immortal Herbs to improve his alchemy skills.
Under Xing Jue's cultivation, a month passed quietly in the blink of an eye. During this month, Xing Jue's cultivation and alchemy level had made great progress, but there was still a long way to go before he could make a breakthrough.
Many things happened in this month. Mount Wuzhi officially declared war on Mount Wu and swore to destroy Mount Wu.
During this period of time, other than important figures like the Supreme Headmaster, almost all the elders of Mount Wuzhi were mobilized to search for Mount Wu's lair all over the world.
Although they did not find Mount Wu's lair, they had clashed with Mount Wu several times. As for who won, naturally, Mount Wuzhi won.
However, only Mount Wuzhi itself knew the exact extent of the damage. After all, Mount Wu was very cautious and despicable.
The true disciples did not participate in this war. As the future successors of Mount Wuzhi, Mount Wuzhi protected their true disciples very well. During this period of time, they almost prohibited their true disciples from going out and leaving the territory of Hermit Peak.
Similarly, Bao 'er did not show up during this month. Xing Jue asked Elder Zhuge more than once about Bao' er's whereabouts. However, Elder Zhuge strictly reprimanded him and refused to mention a word about Bao 'er. He only said that Xing Jue would never see Bao' er again.
Elder Zhuge's words made Xing Jue feel even more uneasy. He had even searched for Granny Celestial Silkworm, wanting to ask her about Bao 'er, but he couldn't find her at all.
Just like that, another month passed quietly. Xing Jue's alchemy skills had improved greatly. He had vaguely reached the level of a fifth-grade alchemist. However, although his cultivation had improved greatly, Xing Jue felt that he still needed an opportunity to break through.
"Junior Brother Xing Jue, are you still cultivating?"
Until one day, an uninvited guest came and broke Xing Jue's cycle of life.
"Senior Brother Zhou, what a rare guest." The guest was none other than Zhou Buran.
Zhou Buran was also Elder Zhuge's disciple. Not only was his strength extraordinary, but he also had the strength of a high-level Asura Wu Zun. He was also easy-going and gave Xing Jue a good impression.
"Junior Brother Xing Jue's aura has strengthened again. It seems that a breakthrough is just around the corner." Zhou Buran observed Xing Jue's aura and said with a smile, full of surprise.
"No, it will at least take another three months." Xing Jue shook his head.
"In three months, it seems that Junior Brother Xing Jue has been in the Hermit Peak for a year?"
"Within a year, he advanced three ranks from a beginner Asura Martial Master to a beginner Asura Wu Zun. This kind of cultivation speed is really embarrassing."
"Junior Brother Xing Jue's cultivation talent, in the whole world, only the number one true disciple of the Heaven Dao Peak, Yuwen Junhao, can be compared to you."
"Junior Brother Xing Jue, you must continue to work hard. I believe that as long as you continue to work hard, there will be a day when you can surpass Lu Yuan and become the successor of the Hermit Peak. At that time, Master will also be proud." Zhou Buran was very optimistic about Xing Jue.
"Senior Brother Zhou, you are flattering me. I was just lucky. If it wasn't for the Rank Five Body Refining Essence that Elder Lei Dong gave me, how could I have such a cultivation speed? Speaking of cultivation talent, Bao 'er is the one who is truly extraordinary."
Xing Jue smiled bitterly. Every time someone praised his cultivation talent, he would think of Bao 'er. When he thought of her, he would feel an inexplicable sourness in his heart.
"Eh, Junior Sister Bao 'er's strength is indeed terrifying. However, I suspect that her true age should be more than that." Zhou Buran seemed to be very suspicious of Bao' er's true age.
After all, when one reached the level of the Asura Martial God, their lifespan was greatly increased. At the very least, they could live for a few hundred years. For those with similar physiques, if they had the help of elixirs, it was not impossible for them to live for a thousand years.
For example, the five Supreme Elders of Mount Wuzhi, the Sect Leaders of Mount Wu, Dragon Sect, and Flower Valley had all lived for a thousand years. They were true old monsters. With their strength, it was very easy for them to change their appearance. Those who were weak could not even tell their true age.
Therefore, Zhou Buran had always suspected that Bao 'er was such an old monster. It was just that no one knew her specific identity.
"Heh …"
Xing Jue did not answer Zhou Buran's suspicion. In the beginning, he was also suspicious of Bao 'er's true age like Zhou Buran.
After all, based on her appearance, she was still a young girl. If she really had the strength of a Beginner Level Asura Martial God, it would be too terrifying.
However, the more Xing Jue spent time with her, the more he felt that this girl's age did not seem to be fake. Because everything she showed was just a pure, romantic, and playful young girl.
"Ah, the topic is off topic. Today, I have something to tell Junior Brother Xing Jue." Zhou Buran said with a smile.
"Oh? Senior Brother Zhou, please speak. "
"Junior Brother Xing Jue, you should have heard of Old Man Yun Gui, right?!"
