"Is it so serious? But I think that if your disciples survived a great disaster, they will have good fortune in the future. The same is true for Yang Jing."

Emperor Chu said calmly, his fingertips tightly gripping the armrest of the dragon throne beside him.

All these little actions were seen by the head of Changqing Sect. He didn't say anything, and his eyes became even colder.

Some small sects at the back also came forward to complain. Their disciples were even weaker, and many had already died in the secret realm. However, they were powerless and Emperor Chu's attitude towards them was even more perfunctory.

The hall returned to silence. The Emperor of Chu still sat high up, indifferent to the chattering below.

"May I ask, Your Majesty, can you give us an explanation now?"

Qin Qing snorted coldly. He really didn't want to give any good face to the man on the throne.

"Why do you need to explain? Didn't my offspring also go into the cave with your disciples? Didn't my children also suffer the same pain your disciples suffered?"

Emperor Chu was no less powerful, the aura emanating from his body was full of that of an immortal spirit. The heavy pressure made it hard for the leaders of the small sects to breathe.

"Besides, this is the remains of my Chu family. I allowed your disciples to explore for resources, which is a great favor. But you, the leaders, are making a scene in the main hall. Don't you think highly of me?"

"Your Majesty seems to be a little confused."

A powerful aura burst out from Qin Qing's body, and the pressure directly overwhelmed Emperor Chu. His blood surged and he almost vomited blood.

"Our cultivation world has nothing to do with your empire. You are the emperor of the Holy Xuan Empire, not the emperor of our cultivation world."

.........

"you are leaving?"

Jiang Jingmo looked at Shen Shuli, somewhat surprised.

"Is there something important?"

The man nodded. Under the moonlight, his hair was as black as a waterfall, and his deep eyes were like a deep spring, hiding emotions that Jiang Jingmo could not understand.

"The day you saved me, you should have guessed that I was being hunted."

Jiang Jingmo was silent.

"Are they going to find you?"

"Ah."

"Is it because of the power you used that day?"

Jiang Jingmo naturally thought of the strange power that Shen Shuli used to save her that day. Although he only had the power of the fairy realm after being injured, he was still able to trap Chu, who was in the divine realm.

Shen Shuli did not deny it, but just looked at her quietly.

"But... you clearly used it during the sect admission trial..." Jiang Jingmo was puzzled.

"It's different. At that time, I used your body and your strength."

Shen Shuli smiled at her, stretched out his hand and gently pinched her face twice. Jiang Jingmo rarely did not slap his hand away, but just lowered his eyes, not knowing what he was thinking.

"Don't think about it. I don't blame you. Even if it weren't for this, they would have found me sooner or later."

"Who is chasing you?"

Jiang Jingmo hesitated for a moment, but still asked, why would they discover Shen Shuli once he used that power?

“…It’s my father.”

Shen Shuli's tone was so light, so light that it seemed to be dissipated in the air.

The air became quiet again. A trace of guilt flashed in Jiang Jingmo's eyes. Just as he was about to say a few words of comfort, he heard Shen Shuli's chuckle again.

"It doesn't matter. I no longer consider him my father... As for that power, I don't know what's going on..."

"But sooner or later, I think I will know the answers to all this."

Jiang Jingmo nodded, and when she looked up, she saw Shen Shuli walking towards her.

The man's shadow cast a shadow on Jiang Jingmo's face. Her eyelashes trembled and she looked at Shen Shuli in confusion, but the latter just looked at her seriously.

"You said in that cave that you considered Chu Yao a friend... Then what about me? Am I your friend?"

Jiang Jingmo was stunned. He never expected that Shen Shuli wanted to ask this.

"Of course, besides, you've saved me so many times, I can hardly repay the favor."

"Why do I want you to repay me for my kindness? I just want to know, what if one day you find out that I was a bad person?"

"Evil? What kind of evil?"

"Probably... the kind that is hated by all gods and ghosts."

Shen Shuli thought about the world's evaluation of him thousands of years ago.

Jiang Jingmo smiled, and she suddenly remembered the evaluation of Shen Shuli in the original book.

[He was born with an evil curse, destined to bring disaster to the world.]

When she saw it at that time, she wondered how terrifying this villain boss must be to have received such evaluation, but now that he was standing in front of her, she understood that rumors could not be trusted.

At least the Shen Shuli she knew was not like this. He was a flesh-and-blood person and was no longer synonymous with evil.

"What are you laughing at?" Shen Shuli wondered.

"I just think people's words are scary."

Jiang Jingmo shrugged.

"Ok?"

"You see, there are so many rumors in the world, and you yourself believe that you are that kind of person."

"Maybe I am that kind of person?"

Shen Shuli also smiled, his brows and eyes relaxed.

"At least the Shen Shuli I know is not like this."

Jiang Jingmo shook his head, and his beautiful eyes just looked at you quietly, with only his figure reflected in them.

At this moment, Shen Shuli felt his heart stop for a moment, and he heard himself speak.

"What's that like?"

"Flesh and blood, affection and justice."

This was what Jiang Jingmo really thought and it was the truth, but it sounded different to Shen Shuli's ears.

The night wind blew in from the window, into the room, ruffling the girl's hair, and also blowing her words into Shen Shuli's ears. After a brief pause in her heart, her heartbeat quickened.

"If those people heard what you said, they would probably say that you don't know people well."

"Oh? Are they still alive now?"

Jiang Jingmo didn't care at all and spoke in a light tone, not noticing anything unusual about Shen Shuli at all.

"The bones have turned to dust."

"Then I guess they can't hear it."

Shen Shuli was suddenly amused by Jiang Jingmo's words, and her usual sense of alienation faded away.

"As expected of you, well, now that I'm leaving, I'll give you something."

"what?"

Jiang Jingmo leaned over curiously and saw Shen Shuli opening his arms towards her, with an exquisite porcelain bottle lying in his palm.

"What is this?" Jiang Jingmo picked up the porcelain bottle and looked at it.

"The antidote to the poison in your body." Shen Shuli raised his eyebrows.

"!? You really poisoned me."

Jiang Jingmo looked at the porcelain bottle and sighed. The reluctance to part with Shen Shuli that had just risen up in his heart disappeared at this moment.

Shen Shuli is really not a good person!!!

At this moment, Shen Shuli was already standing by the window. He turned around and saw the girl's indignant expression, and couldn't help but laugh.

"I hope that next time I see you, you will be stronger."

"Yeah, of course I will. When I get stronger and see you, I will definitely give you the poison back."

Jiang Jingmo smiled kindly at Shen Shuli.

"Then I'll wait." Shen Shuli smiled and disappeared into the night sky.

Jiang Jingmo looked at the man's disappearing back, unable to tell what he felt. However, thinking of the remaining poison in his body, he angrily opened the porcelain bottle, and poured out a few light pink pills.

She threw it into her mouth without thinking much, and immediately felt the sweet and sour taste on the tip of her tongue.

Jiang Jingmo was stunned for a moment, then he understood something. He raised his eyes and looked in the direction where Shen Shuli left, with a smile on his lips.

fraud.

You didn't poison me at all.
