Chapter 144 If I can't have it, I'll destroy it
Wu You rubbed his hands together. "Palace Master, why go through all this trouble? I'll just kill him directly."
Yun Zhao waved his hand, "No, no, he is the head of the Song family and has a soul lamp. If he dies, the soul lamp will go out."
"We still need to go to the demon realm, so let's avoid causing trouble."
Utopia: "Oh."
He took out a tower-shaped magical artifact and put Song Qinghua inside it.
"Palace Master, this spirit tower can only hold him for one month. He must come out after one month, or he will die inside."
"Okay, we should be able to find Senior Sister Bai within a month."
After erasing their traces, Yun Zhao and Qi Yan sneaked out of the Song family under the cover of night and waited at the inn for the Spirit of Extinction to meet them.
That night, after the spirits of extinction returned, they disguised themselves and followed the flow of people out of the Demon-Slaying City, heading straight for the Demon Realm.
Song family.
Song Qingyang swirled the wine in his glass and drank it all in one gulp. The Grand Elder and the others prostrated themselves on the ground, their foreheads touching the ground, not daring to lift their heads at all.
"What is the Grand Elder doing? Is he trying to force the patriarch's hand?"
Song Qingyang looked at the humble elder with amusement, beckoned with his hand, and signaled the dancers to continue playing music and dancing.
The elder lowered his head, a flash of resentment in his eyes, but he concealed it well and Song Qingyang did not notice.
He said in a trembling voice, "Master, let the old man out. You have something on him that you can use against him, so don't be afraid of him."
“In a few days, the four major sects of the cultivation world and various forces will come to Demon Subduing City to resist the demon race. If you don’t show up, the young master… no, I’m afraid Young Master Zhiyuan will become suspicious.”
"So the Grand Elder was thinking of me," Song Qingyang smiled gently. "I thought the Grand Elder was just pretending to side with me, but in reality he was still my elder brother's man."
"Patriarch," the First Elder kowtowed through gritted teeth, "This subordinate dares not. This subordinate has already pledged allegiance to the Patriarch, how could I dare to be such a traitor who betrays his master?!"
"Please trust your subordinate, Master!"
The Grand Elder's words imply that he is acknowledging Song Qingyang as his master!
I don't know if it's genuine or not.
Behind him, the other elders each had their own thoughts.
“Of course I trust the Grand Elder,” Song Qingyang waved his hand, and several servants stepped forward to help the elders up. “However, these are turbulent times, and the recent events that have happened to our Song family are of great importance. I was really worried, so I tested them.”
Song Qingyang smiled and said, "You are all quite good. You have all passed my test. As long as you do not betray me in the future, you will have your own benefits."
As he spoke, a wisp of gray mist appeared in his hand. "Such power, don't you... want it?"
His voice was full of seduction, and the elders and others stared at the thing in his hand.
They knelt down simultaneously: "Your subordinates are at the master's command!"
Song Qingyang casually tossed the mist to several elders, and seeing them frantically scrambling for it, Song Qingyang's expression gradually turned frenzied.
Yes, yes, that's it, go for it!
Song Qingyang was supposed to be a promising young man, a key member of his family, destined for greatness and a bright future...
But all of these... are destroyed!
Even those who have benefited from the situation may try to erase his existence in order to remove the shackles of gratitude they feel attached to him.
Since I can't get anything, not even save my life, then I might as well destroy it all!
Song Qingyang closed his eyes. If he could do it all over again, he would never save him again.
……
After entering the demon realm, Bai Lingxiao found a quiet town to cultivate in. The town was not far from the demon realm's imperial city.
"Senior sister!"
"Zhao Zhao!"
Two girls who hadn't seen each other for a long time hugged each other, and it was only after a very long time that they were willing to separate.
Sitting on the stone bench in the courtyard, Yun Zhao chattered on and on about Bai Lingxiao's recent situation and her cultivation level.
Once Bai Lingxiao reaches the Nascent Soul stage, even if he still can't contend with Hu Guichen, at least the danger will be reduced.
"I'm doing well. The demons here are very friendly. I don't go out much and haven't encountered any danger..."
"I am currently at the ninth level of the Golden Core stage, but it seems I have reached a bottleneck and have not yet reached the threshold of the Nascent Soul stage."
Bai Lingxiao talked a lot and asked about Gu Dinghan and Meng Wenchang. The two of them took her to the border between the human and demon realms and were reluctant to leave. Bai Lingxiao had to persuade them a lot before they finally went home, looking back every few steps.
Yun Zhao said, "I knew Senior Sister would ask about Senior Brother Meng and Senior Brother Gu. I sent them a message talisman when I came."
"They missed the Spirit Void Secret Realm. As soon as they returned, the two sect leaders forced them into seclusion, saying that they wouldn't be allowed to come out until they reached the Nascent Soul stage."
"That's good," Bai Lingxiao breathed a sigh of relief. "I was really afraid they would be punished because of me."
"They're both younger than me, but they treat me like a child, it's really..."
Bai Lingxiao sighed, "It feels like I've gained two more older brothers."
Yun Zhao was puzzled by the implication in Bai Lingxiao's words. She tentatively asked, "Senior Sister, do you treat your two senior brothers as your elder brothers?"
“Mhm,” Bai Lingxiao nodded, “What else can we do? They don’t want to be treated like younger brothers.”
"I had even considered becoming sworn siblings with them, but they weren't willing, so it didn't happen."
Yun Zhao: "..."
Is it possible that they want to be your Daoist partner?
It's obvious that Bai Lingxiao is clueless; all she cares about is cultivation. Romantic feelings probably don't even occupy a tiny space in her heart.
When it comes to matters of the heart, it's something that the people involved need to experience for themselves; it's not appropriate for outsiders to interfere.
Having been through it myself, Yun Zhao deeply understands this.
So, Bai Lingxiao saw Yun Zhao nod and shake his head inexplicably, as if he were dumbfounded.
Fortunately, Qi Yan called for dinner in time, so she didn't have to ask Yun Zhao what was wrong.
The two sisters had finally reunited, so of course they had to have a good meal to celebrate. As soon as Qi Yan arrived, she went into the kitchen, picked up the iron wok, and swung the spatula until it was smoking, cooking a whole table of dishes.
He also thoughtfully paired it with fruit wine, which had a mellow taste and was not intoxicating.
Qi Yan smiled and said, "Zhao Zhao, you two chat, I'll eat with them in that room."
Having said that, Qi Yan grabbed the Cold Wood Dragon, who was drooling over the delicious food, with one hand, and Wu You, whose big head had popped out, with the other. With Fu Guang and Yin Xue tucked under his arm, he left without looking back.
Bai Lingxiao gave a thumbs up, "Zhaozhao, your husband is amazing! So virtuous!"
Before Yun Zhao could say anything, he caught a glimpse of Qi Yan's even more upright posture.
Yes, it made my wife proud!
"That's right," Yun Zhao said with a smile, not hesitating to praise, "My Ayan is the best, no one can compare to him!"
The scene shifts to Qi Yan's face, and Wu You says disdainfully, "Hey, stop with that worthless smile of yours."
It's in my way!
Han Mujiao scoffed, "So what if I just got a compliment? Is it really that big of a deal?"
Qi Yan was in a good mood and didn't take the sarcastic remarks to heart. "I'm happy because my wife praised me!"
"People who don't have wives won't understand~"
Wu sighed, "Forget it, he's right, let's not argue with him."
Consider that he, the dignified Right Protector of Lingxu Palace, has been single for ten thousand years!
Han Mujiao snorted coldly, "Who are you talking to? I'm not like you, I have a wife."
