Chapter 215 Leaving the Church
So Liu Ruxuan's nimble tongue hooked back!
Dugu Juechen was stunned for a moment, then became even more frantic.
A moment later, Dugu Juechen released Liu Ruxuan, who took deep breaths of fresh air, her face flushed.
Dugu Juechen smiled wickedly: "Xuan girl..."
Liu Ruxuan turned to the side, no longer looking at Dugu Juechen.
Inside the Floating Duckweed Palace, Yin Hongxue sat blankly in a chair, unable to understand how Liu Ruxuan had managed to save Lu Zhengyi.
Bu Yuzhen knelt before Yin Hongxue, trembling. Yin Hongxue had been thinking about it all night, and Bu Yuzhen had been kneeling there all night.
"Master..." Bu Yuzhen's legs were so numb from kneeling that she called out pitifully to Yin Hongxue.
Yin Hongxue's vacant gaze returned to her: "You still have the nerve to call me master?!"
Bu Yuzhen confessed everything, and Yin Hongxue was extremely disappointed in her.
"I will keep you alive, but our master-disciple relationship will come to an end." The most Yin Hongxue could bear was to send Bu Yuzhen down the mountain, after all, she was also a disciple he had taught.
"No, Master, Yuzhen won't leave. Master, Yuzhen really only wanted to help Miss Ruxuan kill the Gale Wolf. She didn't mean to kill her." Bu Yuzhen tried her best to save her fate. She didn't want to leave. If she left, she would lose completely.
Upon hearing Bu Yuzhen's explanation, Yin Hongxue's eyes lit up: "Bu Yuzhen, remember what you just said, stick to it, and don't give in no matter who asks you."
“Yes, it’s Master.” Bu Yuzhen knew that Yin Hongxue had already thought of a way to save her.
The next day, Tianling Sect disciples Liu Ruxuan, Bu Yuzhen, He Qiuman, and the four underlings that Lu Zhengyi brought that day knelt in the main hall, while the sect leader and three elders sat high above.
"Tell me, what exactly happened?" Zhiyuan asked.
...Everyone remained silent, and no one spoke first.
"He Qiuman, you speak," Zhiyuan called on her.
"Ah? I, I just ran away... I don't know anything." He Qiuman was very nervous in front of the cult leader and the Grand Elder.
"Bu Yuzhen, why did your sword pierce Lu Zhengyi's body?" Zhiyuan stared intently at Bu Yuzhen.
Bu Yuzhen calmly said, "Elder, when I saw that Ruxuan's spiritual power was exhausted, I wanted to help her, but Lu Zhengyi suddenly appeared, so I accidentally injured him."
"Is that really true?" Zhiyuan asked in return.
“Elder, Yuzhen would never dare to deceive you. Moreover, I am engaged to Lu Zhengyi, how could I possibly kill him? I beg the Elder to investigate thoroughly,” Bu Yuzhen argued.
“Senior brother, I know Yuzhen’s personality best. She has no reason to assassinate her fiancé. How about this: punish Yuzhen by sending her down the mountain with Lu Zhengyi to recuperate. We’ll see how she behaves in a year and then decide whether to convert her to Christianity. What do you think?” Yin Hongxue defended Bu Yuzhen.
Zhiyuan looked troubled, unsure of making a decision on his own. He turned to look at Dugu Juechen, only to see that Dugu Juechen's eyes were only on Liu Ruxuan. Zhiyuan took a deep breath and said, "Alright, let's do as the Third Elder says."
“Liu Ruxuan, you flew on your sword within the sect without permission and trespassed into the sect leader’s Cloud Spirit Hall. Although you violated the sect’s rules, you also saved Lu Zhengyi’s life. To make amends, you will become Lu Zhengyi’s personal pharmacist and accompany him down the mountain to recuperate until he recovers.” Zhiyuan felt that Liu Ruxuan had to be sent away from the Heavenly Spirit Sect.
“Senior brother, is it inappropriate to let Ruxuan go down the mountain as well?” Yunhan said.
"What's wrong with that? The whole thing started because of those two. Am I wrong to do this?" Zhiyuan had already made up his mind.
Dugu Juechen remained silent, and Liu Ruxuan didn't offer any opinion either. Wherever she was, Dugu Juechen was there too.
