Of course, Bai Zao wouldn't believe what Lo Huainan had just said.
If he could get out of here alive, he would probably make up a particularly beautiful story that would move anyone who heard it and make them shed tears like rain. But he would never tell anyone where he was …
He would hope that he would die here, unable to tell anyone this secret.
Oh, no, perhaps after he had recovered some of his power, he would personally kill her before he left.
Having thought this, she calmed down, but she felt very apologetic toward Jing Jiu, who had accompanied her here.
Seeing her expression, Lo Huainan knew what she was thinking. "No matter what you think, you are my most beloved Junior Sister," she said. "I won't kill you."
"Is that so?" Bai Zao asked with a smile.
Perhaps provoked by the mockery in her smile, Lo Huainan's expression turned cold. "Perhaps I can't be considered a pure good person, but I really do adhere to the path of Xianxia. When Tong Lu was in danger, it was I who saved him. Otherwise, how could I have fallen into such a dangerous situation? Junior Sister, you really have to believe me … "
Bai Zao looked at her in Silence.
Lo Huainan gradually fell silent. She took out an elixir and swallowed it, beginning to regulate her breathing and dissolve its power.
Bai Zao asked, "In the long life of Cultivation from now on, can you convince yourself?"
For a Cultivation sect of the Orthodox Path like Zhongzhou School, it was very important for one's Dao Heart not to be swayed.
"Perhaps everything I've said is true, that I have the courage and will to sacrifice for the Orthodox Path, and I've already proved this point, but …"
Looking at the corpse of the snow worm, Lo Huainan said after a moment of silence, "I didn't expect that after being swallowed by this snow worm, I didn't die immediately, and that it actually brought me here. Death was right in front of me, but it refused to show its true face. The process was so long, and I don't want to experience that again. A long life of Cultivation? No, after this experience, I don't think there's anything longer than this. "
Bai Zao said, "So your courage and willpower have been worn down."
Lo Huainan looked at her and said seriously, "Yes, I don't want to die. I still have a lot of things to do, a lot of scenery to see. In the belly of the snow worm, I swore to myself that if I could survive, I would live at all costs."
"I believe what you said," said Bai Zao. "It's because I received your distress signal a bit late."
For Lo Huainan, getting her approval seemed to be a very important thing, and her expression became a little more relaxed.
"Junior Sister, I am very grateful that you came to save me, but I know that if there is only one choice in the end, you will definitely not sacrifice yourself to let me live."
"So you decided to snatch the Ten-Thousand Mile Seal from me."
Bai Zao looked at him and said, "If we don't talk about you and me, do you think you're worthy of my parents?"
After a moment of silence, Lo Huainan said, "Master and Masteress have been very kind to me … right? Then why did you bring a magic treasure like the Ten-Thousand Mile Seal with you when you participated in the Cultivation tournament, while I have participated in so many Cultivation tournaments, but I have never taken one. If the Cultivation tournament is a test of life and death, why can you stay out of it? Why should I be the one to die? After all, there is a difference between those who are close to me and those who are distant. They treated me coldly, so don't blame me for being cruel. "
Bai Zao was very angry and said, "Don't you feel guilty saying such things?"
Lo Huainan said with an indifferent expression, "Master and Masteress have fought for a lifetime, until we are in this generation. Master wants me to marry you, and Masteress wants Tong Yan to marry you. To be able to marry a woman like you, no matter how you look at it, is the best thing. Then do you know why Tong Yan and I didn't agree immediately? Because we all know that Master and Masteress just want to find a Cultivation partner for you, a sickly person, to help you make up for the inborn debt. No matter how hard Tong Yan and I cultivate, it is just a wedding gown for you. "
Hearing this, Bai Zao was a little startled. She really didn't know about this.
"Tong Yan is the smartest guy in the world. How could he not see it? So he thought of a very clever way, which is to use me as an excuse."
Lo Huainan smiled bitterly and said, "He retreated so quickly, so where could I retreat to? I had to make a great wish that after I reached the Cultivation state, I would come to the snowland to watch the night for the human race and become the second Broadsword Saint. Who would be willing to stay in the snowland for hundreds of years like that idiot? It was just a choice I had to make to avoid this marriage. I wanted to see how Tong Yan could retreat, but I didn't expect this matter to bring me a lot of fame. "
Bai Zao was silent and didn't say anything.
"But it's good now. I probably don't have to come to the north anymore."
Lo Huainan didn't finish her words.
If Bai Zao died here, he naturally didn't have to come to the snowland to avoid this marriage and imitate the Broadsword Saint.
"What about the great wish you once made? The whole cultivation world knows about it. Aren't you afraid of being laughed at? "
Bai Zao said, looking into his eyes.
Lo Huainan said, "Time can make people forget all their promises, and what is said to others is not important, just like what you once said to me, Tong Yan, and Nanshan. The future of the human race, the threat of the Snowy Kingdom, the peace of the Underworld, the conservatism of the elders, these are just the imagination of a little girl. Do you really think I believe what you said and am willing to help you lead the younger generation of Cultivation practitioners to accomplish the great cause that all the predecessors couldn't accomplish? "
"So what you said before was all false?"
"Of course it was false. I just played with you for a while because you like me and respect me."
"Just like when we played house when we were young?"
Lo Huainan said after a moment of silence, "I was much older than you. At that time, it was Tong Yan who played with you most of the time."
Bai Zao raised his head proudly like a princess and said, "I did respect you before, but you are wrong about one thing. I have never liked you."
Lo Huainan smiled and didn't say anything.
Just like the Big Brother on the Cloud-Dream Mountain, who looked at his Little Sister who lied out of anger with a doting expression.
Bai Zao continued, "The one I like is Jing Jiu. Even Big Brother Tong Yan is much better than you."
"I know you are not happy at this time, but you don't have to make yourself suffer."
Lo Huainan raised her eyebrows slightly and said, "That disciple of Aoyama named Jing Jiu is nothing. What makes him qualified for you to use as an excuse?"
Bai Zao said with a smile, "I am telling the truth. It is because you are really not good-looking."
Lo Huainan was the strongest of the young generation in the orthodox Cultivation world. He was tall, majestic, and had an extraordinary temperament.
But his appearance was not good-looking. He was just ordinary.
Tong Yan was born with a childish face and eyes as white as snow, far better than him.
Not to mention Jing Jiu.
"Little Sister, you are really amazing."
Lo Huainan forcibly suppressed the anger in her heart and said indifferently, "Under such circumstances, you can still easily irritate me."
"I am not lying. Jing Jiu and I are really in love. Otherwise, how could I come to the cold north by myself? He did not hesitate to consume Zhen Yuan and destroyed several magic weapons of Aoyama to send me here. "
As she spoke, Bai Zao's face was full of tenderness. It was very real and definitely not fake.
Because that was what she thought in her heart.
Lo Huainan was startled and said with a slightly cold expression, "Is that so? Then where is he? "
Bai Zao said, "We encountered a snow worm. It was not convenient for him to bring me to fight, so he sent me into the cave first and then went to fight with the snow worm. I think he will be there in a moment."
If she did not say this, Lo Huainan might have believed her a little. But now she judged that she was lying and said, "In that case, I have to hurry."
Having said this, he closed his eyes and began to adjust his breath.
Bai Zao also closed his eyes.
She did not intend to use Jing Jiu to scare him. She just wanted to plant a trace of doubt in his Taoist heart and at the same time, not to let him pay too much attention to her.
Lo Huainan must have suffered a great injury in the belly of the snow worm. She used Zhen Yuan for a long time in the sneak attack. If she wanted to recover to the state where she could use the Seal of Ten Thousand Miles, it would take some time. Moreover, he did not know that she had mastered the Hidden Scroll. In this case, she might really recover faster.
The chill seeped through the collapsed stones and came to the cave.
The Nanping Bell and the North Time Bell lay on the ground in Silence.
Time passed slowly.
Her eyelashes blinked and frost fell.
Lo Huainan opened her eyes, stood up and walked to Bai Zao.
"I did not expect that you have mastered the Hidden Scroll."
Bai Zao opened his eyes. He looked a little tired, as if he had given up.
Among the Seventeen Mysteries of Zhongzhou School, the Hidden Scroll was a higher level Jindan method than the Chaoyuan Formula. It was extremely difficult to practice, even more difficult than the Escape Method of Heaven and Earth.
Lo Huainan said, "Sister, I don't want to humiliate you. Hand it over yourself."
They were both disciples of Zhongzhou School. Even if Bai Zao would rather die than hand over the Seal of Ten Thousand Miles, he still had a way to break her instrument, and it would be very cruel.
Bai Zao took out the Seal of Ten Thousand Miles and threw it to her.
She did not expect that Lo Huainan had also mastered the Hidden Scroll, but she still did not give up hope. She did not reveal anything when she spoke before.
Sure enough, Lo Huainan did not leave immediately. He flicked his sleeves and walked to the entrance of the cave. He looked out of the cliff.
He thought that Bai Zao was lying. But what if what she said was true?
If the disciple of Aoyama named Jing Jiu was really here, and if he could leave alive, what would he do?
Looking at Lo Huainan's back, Bai Zao's eyes turned cold. He was ready to mobilize the Zhen Yuan accumulated by the Hidden Scroll to launch the final attack.
She did not think that she could defeat Lo Huainan. She only hoped to use the method of mutual destruction to bring her into the terrible snowstorm outside the cliff.
All of a sudden, Luo Huainan uttered a faint "ah", seeming to be surprised.
Bai Zao thought of a possibility. He became nervous and could not attack anymore.
…
…
A figure appeared on the cliff, climbing up slowly in the snowstorm.
The snowstorm was like a knife, and the temperature was unimaginably low. The cliff was polished until it was smoother than ice.
But the person's hand was still tightly attached to the cliff, and was not taken away by the great force of the snowstorm.
As if he had sensed something, he lifted his head and looked up, staring at Luo Huainan quietly.
