Yu Shangrong maintained his posture and did not move.
This kind of thing, if it happened to anyone, they would have to think it over carefully.
Putting aside the possibility of death, even if one was told that one could save one's life by severing one's legs, would one dare to do it? Would one have the courage to do so?
Yu Shangrong was faced with such a choice.
Although it was not as cruel as severing one's legs, severing one's Golden Lotus was still difficult to accept.
For cultivators, cultivation base was another life.
Without cultivation base, one would be a cripple. It was no different from death.
…
Night fell.
There was no light.
In the pitch-black Melilot Graveyard.
Yu Shangrong gripped his scabbard as he occasionally pushed his Longevity Sword up with his thumb.
The sound of the Longevity Sword scraping against the scabbard was exceptionally clear and piercing.
It sounded like a butcher sharpening his knife.
This went on for almost the entire night.
When a faint light appeared above him again …
Yu Shangrong did not push his thumb up.
Everything was predestined … Perhaps when he left Wuxian Mountain when he was young, all the endings had already been written.
Was death that terrifying?
Without cultivation base, one would die sooner or later.
Zing!
Yu Shangrong pushed his Longevity Sword up with all his might.
This time, it was more forceful than before. The Longevity Sword rose into the air.
Yu Shangrong's expression was grim as he stood up and grabbed his Longevity Sword.
At the same time, his Hundred Tribulations Insight avatar illuminated the Melilot Graveyard.
He did not even look as he swung his Longevity Sword.
Swish!
Sometimes, swinging a sword was not just about killing one's opponent.
Yu Shangrong swung his sword.
Then, he looked at his Hundred Tribulations Insight avatar indifferently.
The purple Golden Lotus and the upper half of the avatar were split in half.
Half was up while the other half was down!
Although it was an occasion like this, Yu Shangrong did not want to be in a sorry state. He raised his hand and struck a few of his meridian points.
He sat down with his legs crossed.
As soon as he sat down, his face was ghastly pale, and he was drenched in sweat.
The lower half of the avatar fell to the ground and vanished.
The upper half had entered his body.
Shortly after, his dantian's sea of Qi changed abruptly like a tsunami.
How powerful could a person be?
Even when he was so close to death, he could still maintain his composure.
His expression did not change, he was firm and indomitable.
Just like that, his entire body felt like it was being roasted in a volcano. All of his vital energy seemed to be unable to find a place to reside, and was scattered everywhere.
He was as still as a mountain, bitterly holding on.
Time flew by.
After what felt like hours, Yu Shangrong felt that he was still conscious. He opened his eyes abruptly.
His cultivation level began to drop.
It dropped from the Eight-leaf stage to the Seven-leaf stage, then to the Six-leaf stage.
The Primal Qi stored in his dantian's sea of qi slowly leaked out.
Five-leaf, Four-leaf, Three-leaf … Two-leaf … One-leaf.
A trickle of blood finally flowed from the corner of his mouth.
However, Yu Shangrong was not dejected by this.
On the contrary, his lips curled into a satisfied smile.
Even if he was severely injured, even if the lotus leaf disappeared, at the very least, he was still alive.
Without the Golden Lotus, there would naturally be no Ye Shu. This was to be expected.
"It's just sprouting leaves again."
His voice sounded confident and powerful in the Melilot Graveyard.
All the glory had become a memory.
Success or failure in life is just a matter of starting over again.
…
Meanwhile, Great Yan's Liang Province and Yi Province were undergoing drastic changes as well.
In the Evil Sky Pavilion.
He looked at his master who was seated in the great hall and said, "Master, Jiang Aijian's letter says that the Imperial family has sent an army to Liang Province … The cultivators from Lou Lan and Rouli are on their way as well. With Si Wuya's intelligence, it's impossible for him not to have foreseen this. We'll just have to wait patiently. "
Lu Zhou remained silent. He looked at the merit points on the dashboard, wondering how he should spend them.
Indeed, if they wanted to capture Si Wuya and Yu Zhenghai, they had to wait and see.
Merit points: 17900
Perhaps, he was used to the system's tricks, Lu Zhou had long since lost his temper. He was rather calm.
It was just 100,000 merit points. He could just slowly accumulate them.
Seeing that his master did not respond …
Mingshi Yin left the great hall respectfully.
The next day, Mingshi Yin brought Jiang Aijian's letter to the great hall again.
When he saw that his master was painting, it meant that his master was in a good mood. Mingshi Yin grew bolder.
He walked up to them and said,
"Master, Jiang Aijian's letter says that the Imperial family has purposely given up on Yi Province and has sent the Fourth Prince, Liu Bing, to Liang Province to quell the rebellion … However, Si Wuya seems to have expected this. The Nether Sect in Great Yan's nine provinces is deliberately stirring up trouble. Now … now, the world is in chaos. "
Lu Zhou stopped what he was doing.
These two rascals really wanted to cause chaos in the world and become enemies with the Divine Capital.
Could he do it?
No one knew.
If they only relied on Yu Zhenghai, it would not work.
However, with Si Wuya's help, the situation would change. Si Wuya's Darknet was unbelievably vast. Even Jiang Aijian had to be wary of him. Who would not be afraid of him?
He pondered for a moment.
Lu Zhou said, "Didn't Jiang Aijian mention anything about the Imperial family researching the Nine-leaf stage?"
"I didn't say."
"Then I'll remind you."
"Your disciple understands."
Lu Zhou was not concerned about the uproar in Yi Province and Liang Province. He did not want to know either.
Even if the world was in chaos, it was merely the Nether Sect's doing.
Lu Zhou would not make a move without definite information.
Therefore, Lu Zhou had to be patient. This was what the original owner, Ji Tiandao, lacked the most.
Before that, it would be better for him to investigate the Nine-leaf stage.
On the third day …
Mingshi Yin's walking speed was much faster than before.
This time, he was not the only one. Little Yuan 'er and Duanmu Sheng entered the great hall as well.
"Master, there's a letter from Jiang Aijian."
"Get to the point," Lu Zhou said.
"Jiang Aijian said that Princess Yong Ning went to Liang Province with the Fourth Prince … The Nether Sect was attacked from both sides, and I don't think they managed to escape," Mingshi Yin said with a hint of disbelief.
Lu Zhou was slightly taken aback. He stopped writing.
He waved his hand.
The letter in Mingshi Yin's hand flew into his hand.
Lu Zhou read it and frowned slightly. "With Si Wuya's abilities, he shouldn't have been taken in so easily … Princess Yong Ning?"
"Princess Yong Ning is but a woman. Why would she go to Liang Province with Liu Bing?" Mingshi Yin was puzzled.
At this moment …
Zhu Honggong's voice rang from outside. It was extremely loud.
"Greetings, master!"
When he heard this fellow's voice, he could not help but feel irritated.
"Eighth Junior Brother, spit it out if you have something to say," Mingshi Yin said threateningly.
Zhu Honggong chuckled and said, "Master, I know this Princess Yong Ning."
"Continue." Lu Zhou sat down.
"Princess Yong Ning likes Seventh Senior Brother … I've only heard him mention it once. I don't know anything else," Zhu Honggong replied.
"Old flame?"
Mingshi Yin's eyes widened. "No wonder he was able to escape from Han Yuyuan. No wonder he knows so much about the palace. No wonder he was able to force Han Aijian into hiding in the Evil Sky Pavilion … As it turns out, he has the support of a princess! I didn't expect that Old Seven, who looks so refined, is actually a sanctimonious beast! "
"…"
These words sounded sour, a little like the roar of a single dog.
Duanmu Sheng glanced at Mingshi Yin before he went to polish his Overlord Spear.
Little Yuan 'er said with a smile.
"Is Sister Yong Ning pretty?"
"I've never seen him before," Zhu Honggong said.
Mingshi Yin said, "Little Junior Sister, don't interrupt. Master, this isn't as simple as it seems … It must be a trap that Old Seven left behind. "
Little Yuan 'er nodded like a chick pecking at grains.
Lu Zhou stroked his beard as he nodded in thought.
He still had two Strengthened Binding Cage Cards and one Deadly Strike Card. He had enough extraordinary power.
Lu Zhou now had enough capital to capture Si Wuya and Yu Zhenghai.
The question was, where would they appear?
After mulling over it for a moment, Lu Zhou slowly rose to his feet. He looked at Mingshi Yin and asked, "If you're Si Wuya, what would you do?"
PS: I sent it through my phone. It's in my hometown. I might update it later tonight. I'm sorry, but don't forget to vote. Thank you.
