Refuse to trample on the pride of heaven

Chapter 371 OOC apologizes again

When Shi Yubai stepped over the threshold, Liu Jiqian was wrapping his fingertips with an ice silk handkerchief and tapping the jade mirror on the table. The golden pupils reflected in the mirror were sparkling and polished to the point of being reflective.

He shouldn't have stayed here, he should have gone to report to Min Xiao.

But when I saw the man holding the pen through the carved window lattice, it seemed as if his steps were entangled by something.

"This mirror is stained with demonic energy." The Immortal King frowned, as if he was appreciating a snow lotus that had wilted in the rain. His look clearly deserved pity, but his words made several demon cultivators look as if the sky had fallen and their hearts were dead.

"No wonder. The jade mirror is a spiritual object after all. It is naturally affected by the evil spirit. I was slower when communicating with Wen Sheng - what if I caused Ah Sheng to misunderstand?!"

The scene of the whole hall being tossed about in chaos reminded him of the story of the phoenix bestowing blessings in the book - the divine bird was the same, holding its neck high and picking out all kinds of treasures, turning them into worthless ones.

Even Shi Yubai, who had put eight hundred layers of filters on Liu Jiqian, had to rub his eyes. He had to admit that the delicate ancestor in front of him did not have the cold and noble appearance of Liu Jiqian at all.

It was as if the indifferent and distant politeness was torn off, releasing all the restrained edge and arrogance.

What a cold and aloof immortal sect Mingyue, it is clearly a poisonous spider covered in moonlight, who is using the most elegant posture to weave the Xuanyin Sect into a web that traps everyone.

However, no matter how much his temperament changed, he became more and more passionate towards Lu Wensheng - Shi Yubai always felt a little unwilling.

Shi Yubai looked at the silver tassels swaying in the man's hair, and suddenly remembered that when Liu Jiqian picked him up and brought him back to the Xianzong, the beast tide he escaped from was in a cold place. Liu Jiqian also frowned and gently pushed away the hand warmer he held up: "No, I don't need it."

The rejection at that time was gentle and frosty, but now the almost spoiled pickiness hides a blatant preference for Lu Wensheng.

He looked at Liu Jiqian casually stroking the jade mirror, and suddenly realized that even unhappiness was pleasing to this man - the coldness and aloofness engraved in his bones turned into a sharp edge hidden in cotton at this moment.

Just like at this moment, Liu Jiqian would rather be gentle and caring in front of a broken mirror than give him any sincere gaze.

He was willing to disguise himself to encircle the purity of the bright moon, but this moon just wanted to give all its broken light to others.

Suddenly, he wanted to crush Lu Wensheng's bones inch by inch - why did that person get such an honor? Why could Shi Yubai only go crazy towards the people of Xuanyin Sect who had ulterior motives?

"Master Xuandu is so arrogant." He deliberately increased the volume of his footsteps, watching the chains on the man's body jingle as he turned around. "If you don't know, you would think that the Xuanyin Sect has invited a Buddha back to worship."

Liu Jiqian sneered, his eyes fell over lightly, and Shi Yubai seemed to be no different from the furnishings next to him.

Shi Yubai's face twisted instantly. He hated Liu Jiqian's eyes the most - as if they were worlds apart. But now, the bright moon would rather fall into the mud and chase Lu Wensheng, and would not even give him a bit of its light.

"What's so good about Lu Wensheng? He's just as hypocritical, but he's managed to fool you around."

"hypocritical?"

The two words "light and fluttering" wrapped in frost fell in the hall. Shi Yubai had never heard Liu Jiqian speak in this tone - it was like a cold spring that had been frozen for thousands of years deep in the snow-capped mountains suddenly gushed out, and every word was filled with a chill that could cut the soul apart.

He suddenly laughed softly, and countless ice blades were suspended in the air as his wide sleeves fluttered. "Before you slander others... you'd better hide your jealous face first."

He dodged subconsciously, but the ice blade still brushed past Shi Yubai's ear, cutting off half a strand of his hair. He touched the neatly shaved hair and actually laughed out of anger.

He was actually forced to retreat half a step by the person trapped by the chains he had forged with his own hands. What was even more hateful was the look in Liu Jiqian's eyes at this moment - as if the mention of the three words "Lu Wensheng" had touched his reverse scale, and even the disguised gentleness was torn apart, revealing the madness inside that was determined to destroy everything together with him.

"Do you think he really cares about you?" Shi Yubai's demonic energy surged, and the dark mist devoured the ice crystals on the ground. "You are trapped here but he doesn't seem to be worried. I just met him and he didn't mention you at all!"

"You saw him?!" The ice blade was suspended in the air. Liu Jiqian, who was so aggressive just now, relaxed his brows slightly. His hostility suddenly dissipated. His eyes were sparkling and his golden pupils were filled with ripples of light, like a cat hearing snacks.

Shi Yubai paused and said, "So what? He was quite excited to see me, and he cursed me harshly, but he never mentioned you." Isn't this focus wrong?

"Why are you?!"

"???"

He wiped the jade mirror every day in this devil's cave just to wait for a reply. The pain of missing Ah Sheng was hard to understand even though they were thousands of miles apart. But Shi Yubai could see Ah Sheng alive with his own eyes. Why? !

Bitterness mixed with jealousy rushed through his spirit veins. He knew that Ah Sheng was cursing, and his Ah Sheng's words were full of wit. I'm afraid that the words he said to Yu Bai when he cursed were more than what he said through the jade mirror...

All those thousands of words written in sleepless nights are in the end not as valuable as a speck of dust on the sleeve of your enemy.

With Liu Jiqian's current level of cultivation, an attack only takes a moment. Even though Shi Yubai was in excruciating pain from the ice cone piercing his lungs, he was actually smiling.

How ridiculous it was that he actually trembled at Liu Jiqian's vivid expression at this moment - the bright moon finally looked at him straight in the eye, even if it was with hatred.

The blood flowed down his face, making Liu Jiqian look as seductive as a Shura.

It doesn't look like the bright moon falling into the mud. It's clearly an evil star coming to the world, and it's using the name of the moon to bring disaster to the world.

As soon as Zhou Yuan came over, he saw his own demon rolling to his feet like a ball, stabbed through and through, looking so embarrassed. He also heard their entire conversation and knew exactly what happened. He was scared to death - he suddenly felt that his path to promotion was worrying.

No, are these two people sick? !

When Shi Yubai was "talking nonsense", those demon cultivators who were good at observing people's words and expressions had already retreated early to avoid hurting innocent people.

Zhou Yuan was busy dragging Shi Yubai away, so he naturally had no time to care whether these demon cultivators were still in place.

On their way back, several demon cultivators couldn't help but whisper to each other.

"That demon is at least a little bit ill."

"Don't we all have some problems here?"

"But I think serving Liu Jiqian is better than engaging in intrigues with those people in the sect. I can be picky, but I won't risk my life."

"That is, those high-ranking seniors can't stand it, so it's a good thing for us."

"You've heard, right? The spy that the Great Elder sent to ask about the Immortal Sect has turned against us."

"Duan Jiashu? Of course I know. The Great Elder was furious about this and forbade us to mention it. He even took out his anger on the disciples who had a good relationship with him. They were all assigned the hardest and most tiring work."

"Tell me, given the Great Elder's vindictive nature, why didn't he punish all the disciples involved?"

"It's different now than before. We, the waste, need to die meaningfully. It's best if we only have bones, skin and flesh. Don't waste anything inside or outside."

"...I'm actually quite envious of Duan Jiashu."

"Who among us low-level disciples is willing to do this? Wouldn't it be better to go to a low-level immortal sect? We are called disciples, but we are just human beasts bought by them. If it were me, I would make the same choice as Duan Jiashu."

"It seems that you are all very self-aware. Do you want to go to the Immortal Gate?"

The sudden voice made several people stiffen. When they saw the person coming, their faces turned pale - it was Qu Yanhui! They were going to lose their lives for discussing it in private, and he caught them!

However, Qu Yanhui's eyes were obscure, and his voice was bewitching: "Since you are going to die anyway, why don't you die meaningfully and live for yourself?"
