Chapter 169: You have to give up something in life to gain something
Chapter 169: You have to give up something in life to gain something
Did you win? Not necessarily!
Zhuque sighed quietly, "It's a pity that you gave up the sword."
The opponent's talent in swordsmanship is truly unique!
If I continue to practice swordsmanship, I will never be her opponent.
But no one knows why she gave up the sword.
"In life, you have to give up something in order to gain something."
Saint Bai Lian smiled faintly, "It's just like you gave up the Dragon God Temple and joined my Yunxi Sect, isn't it?"
Suzaku nodded, not quite understanding.
"Then...Master Brother, elders, if there is nothing else, we will leave first."
Seeing the two preparing to leave, several elders who had already expressed their opposition spoke out again to dissuade them:
"Saint Aunt, you have to think carefully. Since she can betray the Dragon God Temple, she can also betray our Yunxi Sect!"
"Yes! The Hundred Sects Competition will be held in March. The one representing our Yunxi Sect this time is Tianchi Peak! She joined Tianchi Peak at this critical moment, obviously she has other intentions!"
"Confused!"
"Haha~" Saint Lady Bai Lian sneered, brushed her hair that was messed up by the wind, and said in a deep voice, "Although I am not a man, I also know what it means to keep a promise!"
Then he looked at Yue Wuhen, "Master Brother, do you also want me to be a person who goes back on my words?"
"Of course not."
Yue Wuhen shook his head and said slowly: "I can let her join the Yunxi Sect, but..."
At this point, he looked at Suzaku and said, "Before I can completely trust you, you need to hand over a wisp of your life spirit to me for safekeeping. Are you willing to do that?"
"If you don't want to, you can just leave. My Yunxi Sect will never make it difficult for you!"
If one's own soul is injured, one's own vitality will be greatly damaged.
Handing it over is like handing half of your life into the hands of others.
However, Zhuque smiled faintly: "I'll give it to you."
After saying that, he touched the center of his eyebrows with his right hand, and a wisp of his life spirit was forcibly drawn out.
"very good!"
Yue Wuhen waved his right hand and grabbed it firmly, "Then, from now on, you are the guest elder of my Yunxi Sect... Oh no, Tianchi Peak."
"let's go."
The White Lotus Saint turned around first, followed closely by the Vermillion Bird.
Looking at the two people's departing backs, a sinister look flashed in the eyes of the great elder Lei Badao.

"Do you think I have hostility towards you?"
In response to the question from the White Lotus Saint, Zhuque did not answer.
She could indeed feel that there was resentment in the other person's eyes when he looked at her.
"You'll know in a moment." Saint Bai Lian did not explain and quickened her pace.
After a while.
The two arrived at Tiandan Peak.
"Please wait here for a moment." After saying that, Saint Bai Lian entered the cave first.
Soon, she appeared in front of Suzaku, pushing Liu Wuji.
"Senior, you..." Looking at Liu Wuji sitting in a wheelchair, Zhuque's pupils shrank, and he vaguely realized something in his heart.
"Don't think too much about it. It's just a recurrence of an old injury. It's nothing serious."
Liu Wuji had a faint smile on his face and pointed to the stone bench next to him. "Tell me, what happened? I knew you would come, but I didn't expect you to come so soon."
"Sigh..." Suzaku sighed and recounted what had happened during this period.
He glanced at Liu Wuji again and lowered his head guiltily: "Sorry, I really don't know..."
"Don't blame yourself. I've already said that this matter has nothing to do with you."
Liu Wuji waved his hand nonchalantly and changed the subject, "You came at the right time. I will be in seclusion in a few days to refine the Ice Soul Spirit Crystal. Tianchi Peak will be temporarily handed over to you and Junior Sister to take care of..."
"I will do my best!" Zhuque bit his red lips, his eyes looking extremely determined.
"Look at you, why are you so reserved?"
Liu Wuji shook his head helplessly, looked at the small tree next to him, and said to himself, "Come to think of it, I once met your father..."
"My father?" Zhuque was stunned. "Senior, do you know him?"
"Haha~ The spear pacifies the four seas, the flame sweeps across the eight wastelands, who doesn't know the name of Tyrant Spear?
When I first saw you, I only felt that your eyes were similar. It was not until I saw the prairie fire spear in your hand and his famous stunt that day that I was sure that you were his daughter. "
Zhuque suddenly realized, no wonder he showed mercy to his men!
"Then do you know how he fell?"
When the family was destroyed, Zhuque thought that his father would appear to turn the tide, but he never expected that the one who came in the end was the old Dragon King Ye Xiao.
Later, she asked around and learned that her father had died long before the clan was exterminated, and the specific reason was unknown.
"I'm not sure about that."
Liu Wuji shook his head regretfully, but there were some words he didn't say - this matter might be related to the old dragon, and even the hidden family was involved.
It was not yet time to tell her.
Seeing that it was getting dark, Liu Wuji turned to look at Saint Bai Lian and said, "Junior sister, I will start my retreat in three days. Please take me to see them."
They, of course, refer to the several major traitors.

The forbidden area of Yunxi Sect.
Chi Yu and his six fellow apprentices were sitting around a campfire. On the rack in front of them, two spirit-tailed turtles were roasting, sizzling with oil.
"Little Potato, is it really okay for us to eat this?"
This is the tenth time that Senior Brother Shi Yun has asked the same question.
He vaguely remembered that the sect leader bought this spirit-tailed turtle from outside at a high price.
"You're so fat, aren't you just eating it?"
As she spoke, Bai Xue had already reached out, pulled off a turtle's leg and started chewing on it.
"That's right. It would be a shame not to eat it." The second brother, Zhai Lei, also joined in.
In the end, Shi Yun couldn't resist the temptation and joined the barbecue party.
As the competition approaches, everyone, human or ghost, is involved.
Only the Six Heavenly Kings of Tianchi Peak did not take this matter to heart at all.
They gathered around the campfire, eating meat and chatting and laughing.
He didn't realize that an old man with a sullen face appeared behind him.
He is the sect leader Yue Wuhen.
The night was long and he had no intention of meditating, but somehow he came to the forbidden area.
From a distance, I could hear some cheerful laughter coming from inside, and an ominous premonition suddenly arose in my heart.
He immediately flashed behind them and when he saw the pile of bones on the ground, he felt a slight pain in his heart.
damned!
This spirit-tailed turtle costs ten thousand spirit stones each!
Just eat it, but at least eat it cleanly, right?
Especially that turtle shell, doesn’t it even spit on it?
"Strange, why do I feel a little chilly?" Feeling a chill coming from behind him, Chi Yu muttered and rubbed his arms.
He turned his head subconsciously and happened to meet Yue Wuhen's eyes.
"Mom!"
Under the dim moonlight, that wrinkled old face was really scary.
"Die to me!!"
Chi Yu couldn't help but punched him.
