"Junior-martial brother Jiang, Junior-martial brother Jiang!" Zhu Yao was suddenly pushed by the person next to her, and only then did she regain her senses.
"Ah?"
"What ah? It's your turn, hurry and take it out."
Zhu Yao was startled, and asked reflexively. "Take what out?"
Zi Dan laughed, patted on his shoulder, and teased. "You couldn't have left in such a hurry that you forgot to bring a greeting gift for your little niece, right?"
Only then did Zhu Yao realize, every single person present, had either taken out a mystic artifact or a spiritual pellet, and handed it to the child's mother, as a greeting gift. Even Wang Xuzhi had handed over a spiritual sword.
Except for her!
Zhu Yao was embarrassed. She really did not know she had to give gifts. She turned to look at the baby girl who was still being carried in someone's embrace, and the three letters on her face still made her feel pain. Suddenly, she had an idea.
She turned to look at Zi Mo, and said. "Hoho, senior-martial brother, I really forgot to bring a gift. However, the moment I saw this little niece, I especially … like her. Why don't I take her in as my disciple? "
No matter what kind of bug this child was, she was still a newborn baby. The reason why Xiao Yi took away the five spirits, causing the world to end, was because of his experiences when he was young, which caused his three views to be distorted, and he could not change them. However, this child was still young. She could completely guide her from a young age, and make her become a kind person.
"Uh, this …" Zi Mo was a little hesitant.
"You sure have thought it through!" Hong Chou at the side suddenly interrupted, and lightly snorted. "You don't even have a gift, and you still want to kidnap my daughter. Senior-martial brother, don't listen to him. I see that your daughter and I are more compatible, why don't you become my disciple? "
Zhu Yao turned to glare at her: You evil lolicon.
Hong Chou returned her glare: A miser who did not even bring a gift.
Zi Mo looked back and forth at the two people who were determined to win, and was in a dilemma. He did not plan to let his daughter take him as her master. Furthermore, he and his wife were both Nascent Soul practitioners, why did his daughter have to take someone else as her master!?
In the end, Zi Mo could only give an excuse, saying that the child was still young, and that they could talk about it after she grew older, chasing the two back.
After returning. Zhu Yao, however, could not calm down. She had yet to deal with Xiao Yi, and now, another one popped out. There were so many loopholes, how could she fill them all?
After that day, Zhu Yao went to the Sword Mountain to visit that baby girl a few more times. Although she would still encounter Hong Chou, this lolicon, every single time, she had confirmed, that child's face really had the exact same 'bug' word as Xiao Yi's written on it. The difference was, in the past, she had seen it more deeply on Xiao Yi's body. And there was no yellow exclamation mark above the little girl's head. Did that mean that there was still room for redemption?
She believes that no one is born bad. But the key was how to salvage the situation.
"Big sis Zhu Yao, are you there?" Little wimp's voice could be heard from afar.
When she opened the door, he came in with a large stack of pamphlets. After knowing that she wanted to take his daughter as her disciple, Zi Mo felt even more justified in enslaving her.
Thus, it was even more logical for her to enslave little wimp.
Wang Xuzhi seemed to be born to do big things. She had a headache just looking at all the big and small matters between the various peaks, but he was able to handle them properly.
He had to give him a thumbs up for this.
"Why did you come here in the middle of the night?" Zhu Yao took the booklet from his hands, and placed it on the table. "You can just send it over tomorrow."
"I was afraid that you would be in a hurry to get it." The child smiled. With great familiarity, he poured a cup of tea for her, and then poured a cup for himself. "Big sis Zhu Yao, have you just returned from the Sword Mountain?"
"Yes."
He shook his head. "Big sis Zhu Yao, just give up. Master only had this one precious daughter after so many years, and master's wife even risked her cultivation to give birth to little junior-martial sister. How could he possibly let his own daughter take someone else as her master?"
Zhu Yao rolled her eyes at him. What did little wimp know? She didn't want to be a babysitter. Wasn't there nothing she could do? And, what she was even more worried about was, after seeing Xiao Yi's bug back then. That was why he had that precognitive dream. Even though he was sleeping every night, he was still able to feel it. However, he couldn't think of anything about the Sect Leader's daughter.
Seeing that she was still unwilling to give up, Wang Xuzhi sighed. Drinking a mouthful of tea, he recalled something and asked. "Oh right, big sis Zhu Yao, why did you deactivate all of the restrictive formations at the entrance? Is there something wrong? "
"Restriction? I didn't. "Zhu Yao was startled, as she exchanged glances with him.
Then who was the one who deactivated it?
Her heart clenched. Just as she was about to stand up and take a look, she saw a cloud of black smoke flying towards them. Zhu Yao hurriedly activated a defensive formation, however, she was still a step late, and was struck by the black smoke.
Wang Xuzhi fainted instantly.
"Little wimp!" She grew anxious. Just as she was about to circulate her energy, she felt a pain in her chest. The mystic energy in her entire body seemed to have been sealed, and she was unable to use it.
"We meet again." A sinister female voice resounded next to her ears, and she was struck by a palm on her back.
In the next instant, she fainted.
It was Rui Yu!
— — — — —
When Zhu Yao woke up, she was in a dusky place. Her four limbs were bound by chains that were engraved with talismans, and she was hung above a gigantic black pond. That pond was exactly the same as the one she saw in the underground city back then, the one used to refine demonic beasts. The only difference was, the thing in the pond back then was the remains of demonic beasts, while the thing floating in the pond now were human bones.
Zhu Yao instantly felt a chill run down her spine. Just as she was about to struggle, she realized that the mystic energy in her entire body was sealed, and even her four limbs were strangely stiff. It seemed like someone had cast a spell on her.
"Yo, it seems like you're awake?" Rui Yu suddenly appeared in front of her. Standing in midair, her smile was extremely bewitching. She pointed to the surroundings and said. "This is the cage I specially set up for you. How about it?"
"It's you!" Rui Yu? Why did she want to capture her?
"It seems like you still remember me."
"Why did you capture me?"
Rui Yu smiled. Suddenly, she raised her hand and gave her a slap. "Why? You schemed against my Xiao Lang in such a manner, shouldn't I capture you? "
Schemed? She was talking about matchmaking for Xiao Yi?
"I helped him find a good marriage, how can you say that I schemed against him?" The hell, she captured the wrong person, right? If she had to capture someone, she should capture Xiao Yi instead.
Rui Yu's expression turned cold, as she raised her hand and gave her another slap. "Don't play tricks with me, I won't believe you. I have never doubted Xiao Lang's feelings for me. If you know what's good for you, then take out your treasure. Otherwise … "
Zhu Yao was startled. "What treasure?"
Rui Yu frowned, and reached out her hand to cast an art. Zhu Yao instantly felt as though she was placed in a blazing inferno, and her entire body began to twitch from the pain.
"It's fine if you don't speak." Rui Yu coldly laughed. "In any case, I have all the time in the world to make you speak."
After saying that, she disappeared, while Zhu Yao fainted from the pain.
Ever since then, she would come and ask this question every single day. If she could not get an answer, she would torture her. Sometimes, she would burn her, sometimes, she would be electrocuted, and sometimes, she would be frozen. Every single day, there would be no repetition.
Yet, her cultivation was completely suppressed, and she was completely unable to resist. If not because she had once experienced the pain of having her Azoth Core shattered, she would have long gone insane from the torture.
When Rui Yu appeared in front of her for the eleventh time, and was about to torture her, she finally could not help but curse out.
"Xiao Yi, you motherf * cking coward. You have the guts to capture me, but don't you have the guts to come out and see me?"
Rui Yu paused for a moment, a hint of panic flashed past her face, but she immediately recovered. "What nonsense are you spouting? I'm the one who captured you, what does this have to do with him? "
"Do you think I'm a motherf * cking idiot!?" Zhu Yao rolled her eyes. "With just a heretic practitioner like you, without any informants, you dare to barge into Ancient Hill Sect alone?" In these ten days, she finally understood why the formation in her courtyard would close by itself, and coincidentally, Rui Yu would suddenly appear in her room.
"Hmph, you sure are smart." A white figure appeared next to Rui Yu. As expected, it was Xiao Yi. "It's no wonder you're able to scheme against me."
"Are you crazy? What did I scheme against you?" Zhu Yao really wanted to curse out. She had saved him time and time again, how did it turn into schemes?
"Stop pretending!" Xiao Yi's expression turned cold, and said with emphasis on every single word. "Junior. Martial. Aunt. Zhu. Yao."
Zhu Yao was startled. The hell, how did he know?
"Do you find it strange that I know?" Xiao Yi coldly snorted. "If I had not heard Wang Xuzhi call out your name by chance, I really would not have known that you're actually Sovereign Yu Yan's personal succeeding disciple, Zhu Yao, who should have died a hundred years ago."
Zhu Yao sank into silence. If she had known, she would not have told little wimp the truth. Although he would always call her 'Elder' in front of outsiders, in private, he had always called her big sis Zhu Yao. But just when did Xiao Yi hear it?
"The matter of you taking over my body isn't related to me in the first place, but you shouldn't have schemed against me time and time again."
"Stop!" Zhu Yao became even more confused the more she heard. "I'm heavy … What does my taking over have to do with scheming against you?"
The hatred in Xiao Yi's eyes sank even deeper. "Do you think I don't know how you despicably snatched the Wood Spirit and Water Spirit from my hands?"
Zhu Yao frowned. As expected, he already knew about the matter regarding the Wood Spirit and Water Spirit. However …
"Wait a minute, snatched from your hands?" Where did these words come from?
"Do you think you can do it flawlessly?" Xiao Yi's face was filled with indignation. "That old man who saved me from the Secret Realm, had long told me about your matter. However, my cultivation back then was shallow, so I did not know that the girl was actually transformed by you as well."
"Then did he tell you that I was the one who suppressed your Azoth Core's rampage back then? Otherwise, you would have long been stuffed to death by your Azoth Core." Zhu Yao instantly chuckled. "Also, you said that I snatched them from your hands. Did the Wood Spirit and Water Spirit land in your hands? Or was your name written on them? "
Xiao Yi was speechless for a moment, and then said angrily from embarrassment. "Stop quibbling. In any case, I won't let you go no matter what."
"Just who's quibbling? Xiao Yi, do you even have a brain? Do you even know how to think normally!?"
"Shut up." Xiao Yi once again used torture on her to stop her from speaking. "There's no point in speaking anymore. Today, if you don't hand over the Wood Spirit, Water Spirit, and the mystic treasure you took over, I will definitely not let you go."
