Chapter 49 Returning the Gift
When Yun Fuzhao woke up again, he was in an unfamiliar place.
Incense burned in the room, its fragrance calming and soothing. The walls were adorned with screens embroidered with beautiful landscapes, and soft light streamed through small windows onto the sandalwood floors.
Something cold brushed against her wrist.
Yun Fuzhao lowered her head, and Jiaoyu lazily curled up beside her.
"Creak" sound.
Someone came in from outside.
Yun Fuzhao's heart tightened, and he placed his hand on the hilt of his sword.
The situation was critical at that time, and before Yun Fuzhao lost consciousness, all she could hear were Meng Cier and Wen Yan mocking each other.
Logically speaking, she should be completely dead.
But she is fine now, and Jiaoyu was not taken away.
Nothing feels right no matter how you think about it.
A man walked in from outside, his tall figure blocking out half the light and shadow. He was dressed in a black robe and wore a bamboo hat.
Just as Yun Fuzhao was about to speak, the other party took off his bamboo hat, revealing a pair of calm, still black eyes.
Yuze.
Yun Fuzhao felt half relieved and glanced at him.
Hmm, something's off about this aura.
Previously, although Yu Ze's spiritual energy was weak, he could still sense that Yu Ze was a cultivator. But now, the ferocious aura emanating from him was almost suffocating.
Has he awakened his demonic bloodline?
Yu Ze looked at her for a while and saw that her complexion was rosy and she was alright, so he took the initiative to speak: "Meng Ci'er has already issued a warrant for our arrest throughout the entire cultivation world."
Yun Fuzhao was not surprised. "On what charge?"
“Harming fellow disciples,” Yu Ze paused, his fingers hanging at his sides slowly tightening, his voice hoarse as he spoke, “colluding with the demons.”
Yun Fuzhao responded with an "Oh".
That's all there is to it. What she's more curious about now is how Yu Ze awakened his demon bloodline and escaped from Meng Ci'er's clutches.
Yu Ze stared at her, "Aren't you surprised?"
"Unexpectedly..." Oh no.
She was so calm that she almost forgot that Yu Ze had never revealed his identity.
He changed the subject at the last minute, saying, "It was unexpected, but in my principles, there is no distinction between races, only between friend and foe. You saved me, and since you are a demon, I have no urge to act against you."
After saying this, Yun Fuzhao gave himself a thumbs up.
What a clever little devil.
Yu Ze was not so easily fooled. "You already knew I was a demon."
Affirmative sentence.
Since he had already said that, Yun Fuzhao simply stopped pretending. "I have just as many secrets as you do, so it's not surprising that I know them."
Yun Fuzhao's throat was still a little sore, and the suffocating feeling lingered in her mind from Meng Ci'er's move lingered for a long time.
To be honest, even a salted fish like her wanted to turn things around back then, and she slapped Meng Ci'er across the face with her tail.
Yu Ze didn't ask about it again. After a long while, he said, "Yun Fuzhao, I didn't poison him."
"I know."
If it were really poison, Yun Fuzhao would have been poisoned when he ate with him that time.
She said it without any emotion, but Yu Ze heard it differently.
His heart pounded at her words, just as it had at the trial. She seemed to trust him completely.
An unfamiliar feeling filled his chest like an inflating balloon, and he awkwardly pulled his robes back, his throat feeling dry.
Yun Fuzhao asked, somewhat puzzled, "Why is your face so red?"
Yu Ze: "...It's hot."
Yun Fuzhao didn't take it to heart. "Speaking of which, how did you manage to save me from Meng Ci'er?"
She clearly heard the sound of flesh being pierced at that time.
"I don't know either, I just felt my blood suddenly boil at that moment."
Is that so strange?
[Yun Family Brigade 2nd Seat Mu Zhe: Yu Ze has half demon blood flowing through his veins, which will awaken when his life is on the verge of death.]
Yun Fuzhao nodded. That made sense.
But when did his level become 2?
System 001: [Given the streamer's unconsciousness, this is an announcement of the points reward. Congratulations, host, you have earned 1300 points.]
Huh? So many?
[He Yu, 3rd Guard of Yun Family Brigade: Look at the light board.]
[Yun Family Brigade 3, Ziqian: Look.]
[Yun Family Team 2, Hong Ziqing: Well, you two really managed to pull it off.]
[Haha, I must say, the level 3 light boards do look better.]
Yun Fuzhao: [Interested? Then join us!]
[I'll definitely do it next time.]
OK OK.
"Where are we now?"
Yu Ze replied, “Xiwu Town. One of the towns under the jurisdiction of the Xuantian Sect.”
To get to the Demon Realm, one must pass through the Xuantian Sect. However, Yun Fuzhao is not familiar with the layout of the Six Realms and does not know how long it will take to get to the Demon Realm from there.
Given the current situation, it's best to leave the cultivation world as soon as possible.
Seemingly sensing her doubt, Yu Ze took out a piece of parchment. "This is a map of the Six Realms."
He spread the parchment on the table. "We're here now. In less than two days, we'll reach the Demon Realm."
Yun Fuzhao now had a general idea of what was going on. After a moment's thought, she asked, "Song Ying and the others weren't affected, were they?"
"..."
His silence made Yun Fuzhao uneasy. "What's wrong with them?"
"I heard from the rogue cultivators that they were stripped of their inner disciple status and are now doing menial tasks."
"How could that be?!" Yun Fuzhao's voice rose. "They clearly have nothing to do with this."
"They intervened to stop Meng Ci'er that day, after you left the Judge's place on your sword."
"..."
Yun Fuzhao was so angry that she lost her mind, but at the same time she was moved, she felt endless regret and guilt.
She never imagined she would involve them. Yun Fuzhao knew better than anyone how much effort they had put in to become inner disciples.
Overwhelmed with rage, Yun Fuzhao felt a surge of murderous intent for the first time.
She was a time traveler who lived in a society governed by the rule of law before coming here, so she was tolerant in her dealings with others. But this place is different; this is the world of cultivation.
Life and death are separated by a single thought.
"I heard that they were originally going to be expelled from the sect, but the Fifth Elder intervened and took them in as servants."
When Yu Ze spoke of the Fifth Elder, his tone unconsciously softened.
The Fifth Elder, she wanted to become an elder under his tutelage.
“They’ll be safe with him, at least.” Yu Ze looked at her. “Yun Fuzhao, you’re not strong enough to deal with Meng Ci’er right now.”
Yun Fuzhao certainly knew.
The only way for Song Ying and the others to turn the tables is for her to improve her cultivation and force Meng Ci'er to step down.
"What are you doing, gentlemen?"
"Enough with the nonsense, we're here to arrest people! Get everyone downstairs down to cooperate with our search!"
A heated argument could be heard downstairs.
Yun Fuzhao and Yu Ze exchanged a glance. "They've come looking for us."
"Meng Ci'er has offered a reward of ten thousand high-grade spirit stones. The entire cultivation world is now looking for us."
Ten thousand high-grade spirit stones, that's quite a generous offer.
Yu Ze pointed to the small window, "Let's go first. After all, this place is right under the feet of the Xuan Tian Sect."
Given Wen Yan's protective nature, he will definitely avenge Yu Nian'er.
He handed over the straw hat.
Yun Fuzhao shook his head. "It's too obvious."
She bought two masks from the system store, which allowed her to change her appearance.
"Are our bounty posters plastered everywhere now?"
Yu Ze nodded, "Mm."
“The ancients valued reciprocity,” Yun Fuzhao said, her eyes crinkling. “Naturally, we should also prepare a return gift for Meng Ci’er.”
