Everyone was shocked when they heard this. Ba Jie even screamed at Yu Luocha, "Have you gone mad?"
With his back facing her, Miao Yi said in a deep voice, "Speak!"
Yu Luocha said firmly, "Even if Pigsy and I can't be husband and wife, I won't help anyone else. I want Big Brother to promise me that Pigsy will never marry another woman from now on, and will never touch another woman!"
Everyone was speechless. To think that he would ask for such a guarantee. Logically speaking, a monk like Ba Jie was unlikely to get married. As for whether he would touch other women, that was hard to say. After all, Ba Jie had already done such a thing.
Ba Jie was a little flustered and exasperated. "What kind of logic is this? You're having fun with other people, so what right do you have to control me?"
Yu Luocha: "You once said to me that you don't care about the karma of the past, so I can give you a guarantee now. From now on, I will keep my chastity for you, on the condition that you do the same."
Ba Jie said angrily, "Yu Luocha, don't go too far!"
Yu Luocha said, "You are the child's father, and I am the child's mother. I have the right to raise this condition, because whether it is in terms of power, status, or cultivation, you are inferior to me, and the price I am about to pay is far greater than yours. Don't blame me for going overboard, because you're a person who doesn't know yourself. If you want to make yourself feel that you're too unreliable, I can only forcefully restrain you! "
With his back facing her, Miao Yi said, "This is a private matter between the two of you. I can't give you any guarantees, and I won't give you any!"
Yu Luocha replied, "Then why don't you just kill me now? Otherwise, I won't let a single one of you off!" She glared at Ba Jie and spat out each word, "I can't possibly give birth to someone else's child for no reason!"
Blood Demon and Grandmaster Qi Jie stared blankly at Ba Jie. Ba Jie was fuming with rage as he glared at Yu Luocha.
Miao Yi waited for a while, but when Ba Jie didn't reply, he slowly reached out to grab the hilt of the sword artifact stuck in the ground.
Ba Jie shot him a sideways glance as his expression twitched. In the end, he waved his hands frantically and said, "Alright, alright, I'll agree to it."
Yu Luocha's eyes lit up. She stared at Ba Jie and said, "Good! I also promise that I will keep my chastity for you and will never let you down. If you can't do it, don't blame me for being impolite. No matter which woman you have an affair with, I will kill every single one of them! "
Ba Jie snorted coldly, but did not object. He finally understood why Yu Luocha wanted him to cooperate with her. It seemed like this was the reason.
Having obtained what she wanted, Yu Luocha didn't waste any more words. Ignoring the blood flowing down her neck, she impatiently took the crying child back from Grandmaster Qi Jie's arms and pacified him before quickly returning to the wooden hut to feed him.
The matter was temporarily settled, and everyone present heaved a sigh of relief.
Ba Jie was the only one who stood there with his head lowered. He couldn't bring himself to be happy at all. It wasn't because he had agreed to Yu Luocha's conditions. In his opinion, Yu Luocha's request at this time was more likely to reassure Miao Yi and temporarily calm him down. It was precisely because of this that he knew how much risk Miao Yi was taking by giving up on killing Yu Luocha. It was just as his Big Brother had said. Someone of Yu Luocha's status would not be easily threatened by some small fry. Concealing the demonic monk Nan Bo's location and not reporting it to the higher-ups was the greatest threat to Yu Luocha. His Big Brother was taking revenge for the evil that Ba Jie had done. He was gambling with the lives of his entire family. As his Big Brother, he could only feel a deep sense of shame for doing such a thing.
"Big Brother, I'm sorry!" Ba Jie apologized softly from behind Miao Yi.
"Scram!" Miao Yi barked, then ignored him. He drew his sword and slowly walked to the lakeside. He stood by the lakeside, facing the blue waves with his sword.
Ba Jie clasped his hands together and bowed, then slowly backed away.
The Blood Demon couldn't help but sigh at the sight. Grandmaster Qi Jie gazed at Miao Yi's bleak back and clasped his hands together again, "Amitabha. Good indeed, good indeed!"
Gazing into the distance, Miao Yi's mood was no better than Ba Jie's. Was he worried that Yu Luocha would betray him?
Of course not! Rather, it was because he felt a deep sense of regret for using Ba Jie.
Ever since he found out that Yu Luocha was pregnant, he knew he couldn't bring himself to do it. If he really killed Yu Luocha, how would he face Ba Jie and his child in the future?
Ever since Yu Luocha became pregnant, he had given up on killing her. Instead, he made preparations to protect himself.
He wasn't afraid that Yu Luocha would betray him after crossing the river, because he still had a trump card in his hand — the Nameless School's treasure vault!
If Yu Luocha decided to betray him after crossing the river, he would immediately reveal this trump card and say that he knew where the Nameless School's treasure vault was. If Yu Luocha didn't believe him, he could describe the situation inside the treasure vault. As a Buddhist, she would surely be able to tell whether he was telling the truth or not.
Since Yu Luocha coveted the treasure vault, she definitely wouldn't kill him before she obtained it. As long as he could keep her from revealing the location of the demonic monk Nan Bo's seal, then he would truly be able to use it against her. If she hid something like this from him, neither Lord Qing nor the Buddhist Master would let her go. If he could use the Nameless School's treasure vault to restrain Yu Luocha once, then he would be able to restrain her a second time.
However, using the treasure vault to protect himself was a double-edged sword. If he could hurt Yu Luocha, then he could also hurt himself. If Yu Luocha was really willing to give up her Buddhist throne for the sake of obtaining the treasure, then he, Miao Yi, would definitely suffer a terrible fate. Thus, he wouldn't reveal this trump card until the very end.
He didn't dare to reveal this trump card carelessly either. If Yu Luocha was sincere, then this trump card would be too tempting for her. He couldn't guarantee that it would incite her wild ambitions. That would be asking for trouble.
Everything he did just now was to test Yu Luocha. Now that things had come to this, he wanted to turn a bad situation into a good one. If he could hold Yu Luocha back, then he would be able to obtain a great help in the Western Paradise Realm. Yu Luocha would then be an important trump card for him.
To achieve this goal, he had undoubtedly used Ba Jie to some extent. Initially, he wanted to be honest with Ba Jie and obtain his assistance. However, he couldn't bring himself to ask Ba Jie to do such a thing. Moreover, Ba Jie was simply too unreliable. He was too reckless. Even though he could stand firmly by Miao Yi's side, he wouldn't be able to achieve great things!
He was also afraid that Ba Jie would find out that he was using him. Ba Jie would leave a thorn in Ba Jie's heart and hurt their brotherly relationship.
Thus, he would bury this matter deep in his heart and never mention it to anyone, not even Yun Zhiqiu!
It was precisely because of this that he was depressed. He didn't know how he had become like this. In the past, he would never have used something like this to his advantage.
The most worrisome moment had finally arrived.
Outside the stilted house by the lake, several people were gathered together, staring at Yu Luocha nervously.
It was only at this moment that the others finally understood how necessary Miao Yi's previous worries were. If anything happened to Yu Luocha, everyone present would instantly die. No one would be able to escape from Yu Luocha's vicious hands. A strong sense of danger filled everyone's hearts.
Even Miao Yi himself was starting to feel a little regretful. He was truly gambling with his entire family's life. If he had misjudged her and found out that Yu Luocha had been putting on an act all along, the consequences would have been unimaginable. He was a little regretful that he hadn't insisted on his initial decision. Getting rid of Yu Luocha right away would have been the safest solution.
At this moment, the words' I know where the treasure is hidden 'were already in Miao Yi's mouth. He was prepared to say it at any moment.
Yu Luocha, on the other hand, appeared very calm. Her gaze was fixed on the infant in her arms, who was currently sleeping soundly after eating his fill.
'Boom!'
All of a sudden, an inexplicable rumble resounded between heaven and earth. The earth shook, causing everyone to lose their footing. The surface of the lake rose and fell, creating a large number of bubbles. In the distance, a cloud of smoke and dust rose up. To be more precise, the entire planet was covered in a layer of smoke and dust. Birds and beasts scattered in all directions in a panic.
At this moment, everyone felt as though the invisible shackles that had been placed on them had suddenly disappeared. The transcendence energy that was brimming from their art source once again filled their bodies. This kind of steadiness was something that those who had never experienced it would never understand.
As the earth shook, Yu Luocha suddenly steadied herself. She closed her eyes, and a strong self-confidence gradually appeared on her face. That self-confidence even made others feel that her expression was a little cold. It was the coldness that belonged to the high and mighty jade-faced Buddha, causing Miao Yi and the others to feel their hearts palpitate.
Fortunately, the sudden change startled the child who was sleeping soundly, and the child began to cry "wah wah".
Opening her eyes, Yu Luocha's expression quickly became gentle again. She hugged the infant and gently patted him, softly muttering words like 'good boy'.
The earth stopped shaking, and the stilt house by the lake had already collapsed. The threat that everyone was worried about from Yu Luocha did not appear either.
Not now, and no one could guarantee that Yu Luocha wouldn't change her attitude later on. More importantly, Yu Luocha didn't mention anything about restraining her anymore. At this point, all the decisions were in Yu Luocha's hands. Everyone's life and death rested in her hands. Anyone who dared to say something like that again would be a joke.
"Ba Jie, are you sure you're sincere about what you promised me earlier?" Yu Luocha suddenly asked as she comforted the infant.
Even though she was currently looking at the infant with a motherly expression on her face, her words still sent chills down everyone's spines.
Ba Jie finally realized how terrifying this woman was. He deeply regretted not listening to his Big Brother and killing this woman earlier. It was too late to say anything now.
Ba Jie had always been a tactful person. He quickly nodded and said, "Of course! A man of character will never go back on his words! "
Yu Luocha lifted her head and smiled at him. "Good! I'll remember this. Don't ever lie to me. Otherwise, you'll have to bear the consequences alone. I'm a man of my word! "
Ba Jie nodded again. "I'm not lying. This humble monk definitely won't lie to you."
Grandmaster Qi Jie understood this disciple of his best. He sighed inwardly, hoping that Ba Jie would keep his word and not cause any more trouble in the future. He clasped his hands together and said, "Everyone, we must leave quickly. The formation will only go out of control for a quarter of an hour. If we're late, we won't be able to leave."
Yu Luocha said, "Master, let's make a trip to the planet Ba Jie mentioned first. Let's see if it's suitable for a child to live on."
Qi Jie smiled bitterly. It seemed like no one could refuse this woman at a time like this, so he could only nod.
Yu Luocha covered the infant in her arms with a flick of her sleeves and took the lead to take to the skies. The others followed behind her.
The group quickly left the planet. Looking down from the starry sky, the entire planet seemed to be shrouded in a dense fog.
Ba Jie led the way after determining the direction, and the group followed behind him.
Just as Ba Jie said, the planet wasn't too far away. In less than an hour, they saw a planet brimming with life. One by one, they broke through the air barrier and entered the planet.
