Fate of the Immortals and Demons

Aunt Li was even more suspicious and asked indifferently, "Am I talking nonsense?"

"Yup!"

Xuanji still argued stubbornly:

"You didn't see it with your own eyes, so what else can you say if not nonsense?"

Upon hearing this question, Li Guzi was furious and gnashed her teeth:

"I didn't see it with my own eyes. If I had, I would have cut this shameless, ugly bastard into pieces and then tortured him to death."

Xuan Ji almost blurted out the question:

"Isn't he your elder uncle?"

"Elder uncle? This shameless ugly freak is worthy of this!"

Li Guzi obviously hated Wei Heizi to the core. If she didn't tear him into pieces, she would never be able to sleep or eat in peace for the rest of her life. She turned and asked coldly:

"From the tone of Junior Sister Xuanji's voice, it seems she's really trying to protect this ugly bastard. Aren't you afraid of disobeying Master's orders?"

Xuanji did not deny it, and answered as a matter of course:

"The reason I protected him was naturally to repay his kindness in not killing me. As for your claim of disobeying Master's orders, we'll discuss it when we see him again."

"Is that so?"

After hearing Xuanji's explanation, Li Gu Zi became skeptical.

Otherwise, no matter how hard Li Guzi racked her brains, she would never have figured out that the reason Xuan Ji protected this ugly monster was that she actually had a good impression of this ugly monster in her heart and secretly liked this ugly monster.

However, as Nun Miejue watched quietly from the side, she was already certain that Xuan Ji had most likely developed feelings for Wei Heizi.

Otherwise, it would not be as simple as just repaying the favor of not killing me.

However, after this, Li Gu Zi stood in the center of the deep valley, speaking righteously and loudly:

"My fellow Taoists, please listen. I, Li Gu Zi, hereby guarantee with my personal integrity that the thousand-year-old medicinal herbs in this valley were dug up prematurely by the ugly and ferocious Wei Heizi.

I, Li Gu Zi, am ashamed to be associated with such an elder. I hereby solemnly declare that I will join all of you in the fight to defeat and kill this despicable and shameless person."

"What!? What does Li'er mean by suddenly saying this? Could it really be that fellow Daoist Wei Heizi's doing? Or is Li'er framing him for personal gain?"

Wuhen, who was picking a five-hundred-year-old medicinal herb, stopped and was stunned when he heard this.

"I wonder how Fairy Li Guzi knew this was the work of this Wei Heizi?"

However, before everyone could finish hearing this, they believed it to be true and became indignant. Xiong Batian from Wan Yao City was the first to ask.

"Exactly. May I ask Fairy Li Guzi, what evidence do you have to prove this? Only then will we be convinced, right?"

Ning Changxing from the Mieqing Dao was also very smart and echoed the sentiment.

"Indeed, although Wei Heizi is said to be extremely ugly, we can't let this ugly guy take the blame just because of that, right?"

"Besides, this Wei Heizi is, after all, a senior master of the Shushan Sword Sect, of the Wei generation. He is of the same generation as the current head of the Shushan Sword Sect, Wei Yangzi!"

"..."

After hearing this question, although these people also hated it, who was this person?

But we must understand it thoroughly, otherwise it would be too foolish to just believe one side of the story.

"Humph! Now it depends on how you produce the evidence."

Xuan Ji, who was originally a little worried, immediately became gloating after hearing and seeing this, and watched with a joking attitude as if she was enjoying a show.

However, before Xuanji could show her joy, she saw that Li Guzi was actually calm and composed. She raised her hand and pointed at her and said:

"The evidence is Junior Sister Xuanji from the Yaochi Sect."

"What? You... you're talking nonsense..."

Xuan Ji, who was originally watching the fun, didn't expect that she would be the one being eaten. She immediately became furious, pointing fingers and stamping her feet in anger.

"Xuanji."

Seeing Xuan Ji lose her composure like this, Master Miejue could only remain calm and scold her.

However, facing Xuanji's attitude, Li Guzi smiled contemptuously and said:

"The evidence is that Junior Sister Xuanji herself admitted that she was knocked unconscious by Wei Heizi and thrown into this valley.

This is enough to prove that it was Wei Heizi who arrived at the valley first.

Otherwise, how could he have knocked Junior Sister Xuanji unconscious right under our noses without us noticing? Junior Sister Xuanji, do you think I am right?

Faced with such words, Xuanji could only cross her arms across her chest in anger and refused to admit it.

"Humph! So what? I was knocked unconscious anyway, and I didn't see anything. How can I know if it was Wei Heizi? You might be deliberately smearing him!"

After hearing Xuan Ji's frank admission, the more than one hundred geniuses present, all of whom were extremely intelligent, agreed with her.

With just a little thought, one can find clues and prove that it was indeed the work of Wei Heizi.

"Could it really be this Wei Heizi?"

"It seems to be him. Since he arrived in the valley first, he must be the most suspicious person."

"I think so. After all, it's really inconvenient for people to know about this kind of thing. But why did you just knock the girl unconscious? Why not just kill her directly and save trouble?"

"I get it. The reason Wei Heizi knocked me unconscious was definitely because he wanted to molest me. If I kill him directly, he will immediately turn into a ball of light and leave the secret realm to search for treasure. How can he vent his molestation then?"

"That's definitely the case. This ugly guy definitely doesn't have such kind intentions. He must have seen us coming and was afraid that his plan would be exposed, so he simply pulled up his pants and fled into the valley."

"Yes, it's true that ugly people are more likely to do bad things. This ugly guy probably has no women who like him, so he is so despicable and dirty. It's a good thing that we arrived in this valley in time."

"No more talking, hurry up and chase him into the valley. We must not let this ugly monster escape."

"This ugly bastard is truly devoid of conscience. He actually did something so outrageous that both humans and gods would despise him. Killing him would be considered as enforcing justice for the heavens."

"Don't argue with me. I've already made it clear. If Ning Changxing knew who did this despicable thing, I'd either beat the shit out of him or he'd just pooped clean!"

"Hurry up! It's almost dark. If we don't find this ugly bastard, it will be really hard to find him."

"..."

Amidst the noise and clamor, more than 200 people, all filled with righteous indignation, rushed into the depths of the valley, most of them chasing after the ugly monster for the thousand-year-old herbs he had picked.

It's just because this ugly thing is too unauthentic and unrefined. Not a single thousand-year-old herb was left. All of them were hundred-year-old herbs. Are they leaving them to feed beggars?

"Ouch!"

At the same time, as night fell, countless demons and monsters appeared and wandered around, especially with this valley as the center, gradually moving closer.

"Let's go, we'll follow too. I hope Xuanyao can live up to my trust and track down this Wei Heizi."

Seeing this, Master Miejue gave an order and led five disciples including Xuanji straight into the depths of the valley.

Since many monsters and demons have appeared inside and outside the valley, most people now go deeper into the valley.

Those geniuses who were still lingering in this valley and picking century-old herbs were forced to go with the flow and head deeper into the valley.

“Mo Hei, you must be careful and don’t get caught by Xuan Yao.”

Xuan Ji could only follow behind Master Miejue and pray silently in her heart.

However, Xuanji turned a deaf ear to Ye Wuque's repeated questions and developed a dislike for him. She just wanted to stay away from him, and her dislike for him was even greater than when she first met Mo Hei.

"Oh my god! What kind of cave is this?"

"Such a huge cave, could it be the lair of some monsters or demons?"

"There are so many of us, what is there to be afraid of? Let's go in and take a look first!"

"..."

Before Xuanji followed her master to the depths of the valley, she heard screams.

"Xuanji, can you sense that Xuanyao is in this cave?"

As Xuanji looked into the distance, she suddenly saw that at the end of the valley was a huge cave, just like an ancient giant beast with its bloody mouth wide open, waiting for its prey to be delivered into its mouth.

Facing this question from her master, Xuanji was stunned for a long time before nodding and saying:

"Xuan Yao is indeed inside."

"Xuan Ji, Xuan Yao's path is in your hands. You don't want her to be in danger or be defiled by that ugly and lustful Wei Heizi, do you?"

Nun Miejue seemed to have seen through Xuan Ji's little thoughts and didn't want herself and others to track down Wei Heizi, so she deliberately reminded her.

When Xuanji heard this, she shook her head and denied it:

"Master, don't worry, this is impossible. Xuanyao is at least at the Xiantian level, and Wei Heizi is only at the Tian level. Even if Xuanyao can't defeat him, she is more than capable of protecting herself."

"You still don't understand Xuan Yao very well. She wouldn't kill someone just out of a momentary rage."

Nun Miejue obviously had a much more profound vision. After saying this with profound meaning, she flew straight into the cave, leaving Xuanji to experience it herself.

"If this Wei Heizi really dares to do anything inappropriate to Yao'er, I, Ye Wuque, will swear to kill him!"

However, Ye Wuque, who was following beside him, immediately spoke his mind and decided to kill Wei Heizi. It was obvious that he regarded Xuan Ji and Xuan Yao as his forbidden delicacy.

Hearing this, Xuan Ji seemed to have been enlightened. She had no choice but to follow in, hoping that Xuan Yao would not do anything stupid.

If Mo Hei really wants to molest her, she must not give in and be willing to have her innocence tarnished.

However, when Xuanji entered the cave with a worried look on her face, she was stunned. How could this be a cave? This was simply a karst cave.

Fortunately, there were glittering stalactites in this cave, so it wasn't completely dark. In the dim light, I could see that the cave was like a heart, with blood vessels connecting it in all directions...
