Dusk Returns to the Ruined Building

Chapter 704: Agreement not to snatch from each other

It was already very difficult for the two of them to meet Jian Ying in the city, but in the end they always got separated!

Murong Ruoxi is a person of temperament. At the same time, she is also a young lady from Youzhou who has not experienced much in the martial arts world. It is normal for her to cry when something happens and to be obsessed with love. But one thing is that she is also growing up.

Apart from anything else, without Qian'er to take care of her, Murong Ruoxi would have to continue to wander the world alone.

Murong Ruoxi has always thought that since she practiced the skills of two saintly masters, she should be considered a very powerful person in the martial arts world. But today, when she met the Black-Faced Judge again, she realized that there are always people better than you!

Helian Xiaoyue's cultivation should be similar to that of his master, but he was defeated in today's battle. Murong Ruoxi didn't know how the Black-Faced Judge could suddenly become so strong. She remembered that it was not like this in the vast desert.

Murong Ruoxi originally wanted to use the Black-faced Judge to try out the technique taught by the Painting Sage, but the result was, oh! It's really hard to describe, I regret it so much!

Murong Ruoxi didn't know that the Black-Faced Judge came for her Qiankun Jade Pendant, and that the Black-Faced Judge was also in Yaoyu Pavilion at the time.

After leaving Ouyang Zhiqing, Murong Ruoxi quickly took Helian Xiaoyue into a villa, a villa with no lights. She couldn't care less and had to wake Helian Xiaoyue up first.

Murong Ruoxi and Helian Xiaoyue's martial arts were of the same origin. She used her remaining internal strength to awaken the vitality of Helian Xiaoyue's body. After Helian Xiaoyue woke up, she fell directly to the ground and fainted.

Murong Ruoxi herself was also seriously injured!

Helian Xiaoyue looked at the unconscious Murong Ruoxi and smiled, with a hint of relief in his bitterness. He was the king of killing, and there were very few people in his life who risked their lives to save him. He had even forgotten the last time he was rescued.

But Helian Xiaoyue still made a joke!

"You little bastard, you are so lucky. Your master said he would die. Did you do that? Even I was almost killed by you!"

Helian Xiaoyue took out two pills, ate one himself, fed one to Murong Ruoxi, and then began to practice his internal energy. The danger was not over, but now was not the time for him to worry!

Murong Ruoxi woke up at dawn.

Helian Xiaoyue was still practicing internal energy to heal his wounds. He was seriously injured this time, and he also had to refine the remaining ghost vein energy in his body, which was the most dangerous.

If Murong Ruoxi had not risked her life to wake Helian Xiaoyue up and had allowed him to remain unconscious, Helian Xiaoyue might have really been invaded by the power of the ghost vein, so in a sense, Murong Ruoxi saved Helian Xiaoyue's life.

Murong Ruoxi did not disturb Helian Xiaoyue, she also used her internal energy to heal her injuries.

The clouds cover the sun and the north wind brings a cold chill.

When Helian Xiaoyue woke up, her first reaction was to smell the aroma of wine, and the first thing she saw was Murong Ruoxi drinking, and drinking in big gulps.

"Stinky girl, why did you choose Jiu Xiaoyao as your master?"

When Murong Ruoxi saw that Helian Xiaoyue had woken up, her heart finally settled down. She smiled and said:

"Because I'm a stinky girl!"

Helian Xiaoyue was stunned for a moment, then burst into laughter. Maybe she was too excited, and then she started coughing, and even coughed up blood!

Murong Ruoxi was shocked!

"Master, you, you are not well yet?"

"Hey, little girl, my injury is not so easy to heal. You shouldn't have bid for the Qiankun Jade Pendant at Yaoyu Auction House. No, I shouldn't have met you!"

Murong Ruoxi smiled upon hearing this and said softly:

"You can still joke. This proves that you can't die. Next time you can't beat me, don't try to be brave. I'll die if I want to. Anyway, it will make my master sad!"

Helian Xiaoyue shook her head, stood up and said:

"Girl, you only suffer when you're with that idiot!"

After Helian Xiaoyue finished speaking, he felt a little regretful and glanced at Murong Ruoxi.

Sure enough, Murong Ruoxi was drinking in big gulps, but her eyes were wet and she was trying hard not to cry.

"Cry if you want to. Just think of it as a farewell to those who are still alive. Everyone is going to die anyway!"

"I won't cry, the idiot won't die, I'll let him cry for me!"

Murong Ruoxi said this as she turned around and wiped away her tears. When she looked back again, she really stopped crying and was still drinking.

"Come on, let's go ask around. If he's dead, you can give him a ride!"

"Uncle Master, it seems that Shadow Hall has done a lot of things that hurt the Ji family. Why do you want the fool to die so much? You wanted to kill me the first time we met in Wenglixie. Don't think I don't know!"

Helian Xiaoyue, who was walking forward, was startled when he heard this. He really didn't expect that Murong Ruoxi had noticed it at that time!

"Don't worry, little girl. I will do what I promised you. However, there are many people in Jianying City who want to kill him. How about we stay away from him?"

Murong Ruoxi was very distressed and drank by herself. After a long time, she responded softly:

"Maybe I should really stay away from idiots!"

Helian Xiaoyue looked at Murong Ruoxi who was feeling a little depressed. Of course he understood what Murong Ruoxi meant!

"You little bastard, you are the descendant of two saints. If you practice diligently, you will be able to help him soon. Besides, you are a young man, and your cultivation is not weak. It's just that the two monsters you encountered were old monsters. I was defeated as well, and I was seriously injured!"

Murong Ruoxi drank it all in one gulp and took out another pot of wine!

"Uncle Master, you don't need to comfort me. When I first met Idiot, he was not as good as me. This time we met again, he has surpassed me by a lot. No, I must work hard to catch up with him. I don't want to be a burden to him. I don't want him to protect me every time. I also want to protect him!"

Murong Ruoxi did not mention another reason, which was that she wanted to go back to Youzhou. It would not work like this now, she had to get the Purple Jade Mysterious Ring.

Murong Ruoxi did not realize that her current problem was cultivation. She was different from Shen Yichen. If she did not practice, her cultivation would not improve on its own. However, Shen Yichen had a technique that operated automatically in his body.

In fact, Murong Ruoxi also has a method that does not involve cultivation, which is drinking. However, she has to practice to continuously increase the storage space of the true essence in her meridians and dantian, so that she can drink more and more!"

"Little girl, training is very hard, you must be mentally prepared!"

"Uncle Master, I am not afraid of hardship. I have enjoyed all the happiness I deserve, and it is time for me to suffer!"

Helian Xiaoyue glanced at Murong Ruoxi. He was really interested in this young lady from Youzhou. After thinking for a moment, he smiled and said:

"The sword is ready. You can come to the Shadow Hall to practice. The Dark Wind Valley and Evil Water Peak in the Shadow Hall are very suitable for practice!"

"Besides, I don't know where to go!"

Murong Ruoxi told Helian Xiaoyue what was in her heart. She herself felt it was strange because the Shadow Hall had been chasing her.

Maybe Murong Ruoxi trusted her master too much. The Painting Saint told her that he couldn't let go of her and Helian Xiaoyue. The meaning was very clear. He entrusted her to Helian Xiaoyue.

When Murong Ruoxi called him "Uncle Master", Helian Xiaoyue knew what the Painting Saint meant, but he didn't know what Murong Ruoxi herself was thinking.

After spending a few days together, it was found that Murong Ruoxi was indeed a nice girl, but she was the eldest daughter of the Youzhou Murong family after all, and there were some things that Helian Xiaoyue could not open her heart to.

The Shadow Hall does not have a good reputation in the martial arts world, and Helian Xiaoyue does not want to put Murong Ruoxi in a dilemma.

"Uncle Master, why is Shadow Hall looking for the Purple Jade Mysterious Ring?"

Murong Ruoxi has wanted to ask this question for a long time!

After pondering for a long time, Helian Xiaoyue responded:

"I've been entrusted with this!"

Of course Helian Xiaoyue would not tell anyone about the affairs of Xuantian Pavilion.

"Uncle Master, if you find the Purple Jade Mysterious Ring, will you fight with me for it?"

Murong Ruoxi's question touched Helian Xiaoyue's sore spot, because he would snatch it, he would definitely snatch it!

"Let's find it first!"

Murong Ruoxi turned her head and glanced at Helian Xiaoyue. She knew the answer, so she handed Helian Xiaoyue a pot of wine, pondered for a moment, and said softly:

"Uncle Master, let's make a pact! If the Mysterious Purple Jade Ring falls into your hands, I will not try to snatch it away. If it falls into the hands of someone else in the Shadow Hall, I will try to snatch it away until the Mysterious Purple Jade Ring falls into your hands!"

Helian Xiaoyue raised his head and took a big sip of wine. He understood what Murong Ruoxi meant, but...

"Uncle Master, you don't want my master to see us killing each other, right?"

"Okay, little girl, I promise you! If the Purple Jade Mysterious Ring falls into your hands, I will not try to snatch it away. The rest of the Shadow Hall can do it on their own!"

Murong Ruoxi was delighted when she heard this. She clinked the wine pot with Helian Xiaoyue and said with a smile:

"Thank you, uncle!"

"Little girl, let me remind you that I may not rob you, but I cannot control the people behind me. The Mysterious Purple Jade Ring may bring you death!"

Murong Ruoxi was not stupid. She did not ask who was behind the Shadow Hall. Instead, she drank and said:

"Uncle Master, as long as you don't make a move, if someone comes to rob me, I will kill them. They are not my uncle master!"

Helian Xiaoyue laughed when she heard that!

"You, hey! If you want to kill someone, drinking alone won't work. Practice hard!"

"Okay, listen to Uncle Master. Let's find a place to heal our wounds and practice. Let's not look for the idiot first, or we'll have to trick him again!"

Helian Xiaoyue didn't want to look for her, so he found a carriage and prepared to take Murong Ruoxi to the hiding place of the Shadow Hall.

The two of them did a very strange thing on the road, which was to buy wine for Murong Ruoxi, and they bought a lot of wine. Helian Xiaoyue had only met Jiu Xiaoyao a few times and was not very familiar with him, so she did not quite understand Murong Ruoxi's behavior. Jiu Xiaoyao's apprentice loved to drink, so there was nothing wrong with that, but the car full of wine was really a bit too exaggerated!

Two people sat outside the carriage, drinking and driving.

Murong Ruoxi talked about her past with Dai Zi. Although the story was short, it was really nostalgic and interesting. The two laughed from time to time.

Murong Ruoxi originally wanted Helian Xiaoyue to talk about his past with the Painting Saint, but Helian Xiaoyue did not say anything. Instead, he told Murong Ruoxi about a woman.

The woman was about the same age as Murong Ruoxi, and her name was Ying Er.

Ying'er has been pestering the Painting Saint for five years, but the Painting Saint refuses to accept her as his disciple. Murong Ruoxi can hear that Helian Xiaoyue feels sorry for Ying'er, and at the same time seems a little unconvinced. There is also another meaning, that Ying'er might cause trouble for Murong Ruoxi in the future!

When Helian Xiaoyue talked about Ying Er's appearance, Murong Ruoxi found it more and more incredible!

"Uncle Master, has Ying'er ever been to the Hanhai Desert?"

"Yes, she has been there. She even saved your life. The Shadow Order that forced everyone in the Shadow Hall to retreat was issued by her!"

Only then did Murong Ruoxi realize that the person who saved her in the ancient desert city was actually the charming woman she hated so much!
