Seeing Niu Youdao dejectedly running away with his tail between his legs, Chu Fengping looked happy, as if he had vented his anger. However, his heart was still ashamed. His most important purpose was not achieved, so it was hard for him to be happy.
He also didn't expect that he had grasped Niu Youdao's weakness. He thought that at this time, Niu Youdao would have no choice but to yield. He thought that it was in the bag, but who knew that Niu Youdao would refuse his request. How could he endure this?
Similarly, he also knew that it was not a glorious thing to send away his female disciple. If he succeeded, it could be said that it was a good marriage, and the disgrace would be over. But if he failed, he would feel ashamed for the rest of his life. How could he not be angry?
How could he just banish Niu Youdao and force Niu Youdao into a dead end?
"Stop!" Suddenly, someone beside him shouted. It was a woman's voice.
He turned around and couldn't help but frown. It was his female disciple, Xiao Ruying, who he was going to marry Niu Youdao. Now that she had appeared, it seemed like she couldn't bear it any longer. He immediately warned, "Ruying!"
This time, Xiao Ruying ignored his Master.
Hearing the voice, Niu Youdao stopped. When he turned around, he saw a woman with a pretty good appearance. It was just that, from her pink face, it was obvious that she did not come with good intentions.
He didn't know this woman, but he had seen her before. He knew that she was one of the cultivators that came with Yan Li. Judging from her attire, she was a disciple of Spirit Sword Mountain.
Niu Youdao slowly turned around. "Miss, what can I do for you?"
Xiao Ruying slowly walked over and stood in front of him. Her bright eyes were filled with bone-chilling coldness. She coldly stared at Niu Youdao and said word by word, "Niu Youdao, remember my name. I am Xiao Ruying!"
Yan Li and Shan Hai looked at each other. One winked while the other raised his eyebrows. Both of them seemed to have guessed something.
Niu Youdao looked at Chu Fengping's reaction and could roughly guess who this woman was. He smiled faintly and said, "Why should I remember your name?"
Xiao Ruying: "You better stay alive!"
Niu Youdao shrugged his shoulders. "There is no need for Miss Xiao to worry about me, and there is no need for Miss Xiao to remind me. Even ants are greedy for life. I will naturally try my best to live well."
Xiao Ruying's tone was extremely cold, "The humiliation you gave me today, I will definitely repay it in the future!"
Other people might not know what she meant by this. In fact, even in Spirit Sword Mountain, only she and Chu Fengping knew about this.
Again, this wasn't something to be proud of, and it also involved the competition between the three major sects, so they wouldn't make it public.
In fact, she had always been a very virtuous person in Spirit Sword Mountain. She really didn't like ordinary men.
Therefore, in the beginning, she didn't agree to this matter. Later, after being persuaded by Chu Fengping, she also collected information about Niu Youdao and carefully learned about him.
Previously, she had only heard about Niu Youdao, but she didn't know about him in detail. Now that she knew about him, she found out that he was a real person. Moreover, he was a rare talent in the Immortal Cultivation World. She found out that he was worthy of her. Marrying him and becoming the mistress of the Thatched Cottage Villa wouldn't be a disgrace to her.
Considering the sect's interest, as well as her Master's repeated persuasion, she neither agreed nor refused. However, she still followed her Master to Heaven Capital Secret Territory.
This was tantamount to agreeing. Chu Fengping was well aware of this, but he didn't say anything to avoid embarrassment. He just followed the plan.
Xiao Ruying naturally wanted to see what Niu Youdao looked like. When they first met in Heaven Valley, Niu Youdao ignored the Misty Pavilion and went on a killing spree, which really amazed her!
When they first met, Niu Youdao's feat made her dumbfounded, which shocked her. Who in Spirit Sword Mountain dared to do that? Who had the guts to do that?
Seeing that scene again, her heart palpitated with excitement. She felt that this was the man that she, Xiao Ruying, was looking for!
After that, Xiao Ruying has been quietly observing Niu Youdao.
Niu Youdao's appearance couldn't be said to be very good, but it was definitely not bad. He also had a different temperament, a kind of flavor that ordinary people couldn't see.
With that in mind, the more she looked at him, the more satisfied she was. She had to admit that among her peers in Spirit Sword Mountain, no one could compare to him.
Later, Chu Fengping found Niu Youdao and brought up the matter. Niu Youdao said that he needed to think about it, so Chu Fengping let him think about it.
Chu Fengping thought that this matter was already set in stone. It was impossible for a person like Niu Youdao not to know what's good for him, so he would certainly agree. In short, he didn't think that Niu Youdao would refuse. Therefore, after bringing up the matter with Niu Youdao, he immediately went to find Xiao Ruying, hoping that Xiao Ruying could give him a definite answer. He couldn't be secretive anymore, lest when the time comes, Niu Youdao would agree, and this person would start to make trouble again.
Being asked again, Xiao Ruying found it a bit difficult to answer. She only asked if Niu Youdao would agree. What else could Chu Fengping say? The result could be imagined.
After that day, Xiao Ruying naturally thought that she and Niu Youdao were destined to be husband and wife.
She began to think about how to get along with Niu Youdao in the future. After she got pregnant, should she go back to Spirit Sword Mountain, or should she go back to Thatched Cottage Villa with Niu Youdao? She thought about how to deal with Qi Capital's Matchmaker after she became the mistress of Thatched Cottage Villa. Through her understanding, she knew that there was a woman called Matchmaker by Niu Youdao's side, and their relationship was well-known.
In short, she thought about a lot of things. Who knew that today, it turned out to be her own wishful thinking, her warm face was met with cold buttocks.
She even promised her master that, for the sake of the sect's interest, she would get pregnant with Niu Youdao as soon as possible.
Now that he thought about it, how could she endure the fact that he had let her go?
She was a very virtuous woman, so it was not easy for her to let go of such a promise. For her, this was a great humiliation, which led to the scene in front of her.
"…" Niu Youdao was speechless. He didn't know what happened, so he couldn't understand. How could this be a humiliation?
He was stunned for a moment, then calmly said, "Miss Xiao, you're thinking too much. Whether you believe it or not, I'm doing this for your own good!"
Regarding Yan Li and Shan Hai's plot, it wasn't good for him to expose it now.
There was nothing more to say to this kind of woman, so Niu Youdao turned and left after saying those words.
Situ yao shouted, "Brother, take care of yourself on the way!"
Niu Youdao didn't turn back. Only Wu Zhaoxing, Yun Ji and her son followed him.
Situ Yao's mood was very complicated, and so were the people from Ten Thousand Grotto Mansion. They all knew that they had let down Niu Youdao this time. If it wasn't for the fact that they were in the Heaven Capital Secret Realm, and Niu Youdao could control the life and death of Ten Thousand Grotto Mansion, they wouldn't have dared to do this. This could be considered as them seeing that Niu Youdao was easy to bully.
The people from Great Zen Mountain were gloating. They thought that once Niu Youdao died here, there might be a bright future in Southern State.
Yan Baoru's eyes flickered.
Xiao Ruying sent them off with a cold expression. The resentment in her eyes couldn't be concealed.
Chu Fengping was also speechless. He didn't expose this disciple from the start because he wanted to save some face for him. He didn't expect this disciple to take the initiative to reveal himself.
"Sigh!" Yan Li sighed. He turned around and saw the three trembling women huddled together. He couldn't help but ask, "Aren't the three of you Niu Youdao's subordinates?"
Dong Jinhuan, An Miao 'er, and Lin Feiyan looked at each other. This question was embarrassing.
But to Yan Li, did he care whether they were embarrassed or not?
Dong Jinhuan answered again, "We're not his subordinates. We're disciples from Immortal Retaining Sect, Lingxiu Mountain, and Fuyun Sect."
Yan Li raised his brows, "Aren't Immortal Retaining Sect, Lingxiu Mountain, and Fuyun Sect Niu Youdao's subordinates? If you betray him now, aren't you afraid that you won't be able to answer to your sects when you return? "
Dong Jinhuan mumbled, "With our cultivation, it's difficult for us to take on such a big responsibility. It's not our turn this time. It's Niu Youdao who chose the three of us." She tilted her head and said to the other two, as if asking if they were right.
An Miao 'er hurriedly nodded and added, "Niu Youdao has been plotting against the three of us ever since we were at Thatched Cottage Villa. We've been avoiding him all this time."
Dong Jinhuan continued, "This time, Niu Youdao chose the three of us, and we couldn't refuse. Actually, we're very afraid that we won't be able to escape from him. We didn't think that we'd have a chance to do so."
Anyone who wasn't stupid would know what she meant.
Right now, they were terrified. They knew that what they'd done wasn't right, but they were also afraid that a group of people would hate them for doing this, and that they'd be willing to trample on Niu Youdao's reputation to prove that they weren't traitors. They were just trying to protect themselves by slandering Niu Youdao.
This was the so-called hitting a man when he was down, beating a broken drum when it was raining, and pushing a man when he was down. Seeing that Niu Youdao had lost his power, she immediately wanted to draw a clear line between herself and Niu Youdao.
Lin Feiyan knew the truth, but she didn't say anything and just lowered her head.
Everyone suddenly understood. No wonder the three sects of Immortal Retaining Sect would send three young and beautiful women. It turned out that Niu Youdao had such dirty thoughts. Naturally, some people would feel ashamed and sympathize with the three women …
After distancing themselves from Yan's group, Niu Youdao and the rest stopped on a mountain. They couldn't run around blindly, so they had to make a new plan.
Looking at the people around him, only Yun Ji, her son, and the Sorcerer were left.
With regards to this, it was impossible for Niu Youdao not to feel a little emotional.
Right now, Yun Ji and her son didn't dare to betray him because their weakness was in his hands.
The Sorcerer had no other choice. He had threatened the Devil Sect. If he couldn't return alive, the Sorcerer's hidden identity would be exposed.
Hence, he was very clear that if it weren't for these reasons, the three of them wouldn't have left with him. Yun Huan's so-called sworn brotherhood with him wasn't reliable in this situation.
He suddenly thought of Wei Duo. That stutterer was really annoying. He wondered how he was doing now.
"What's going on? Why did he have to fall out with Chu Fengping?"
They couldn't figure this out. They didn't believe that Niu Youdao didn't know the consequences. Now that they stopped, Yun Ji couldn't help but ask.
"You all saw that Xiao Ruying just now. Chu Fengping wants me to marry her …" Niu Youdao told them the whole story.
There were only these few people around him, so it wasn't good to be suspicious of each other. In order to unite, Niu Youdao didn't hide it from them and told them the reason.
The three of them looked at each other. No one expected this to be the reason.
