Fellow Daoist! That scoundrel has written a new book again.

Despite many questions, Zhu Wuyao has come to understand Gu Yiguan's intentions now.

When faced with the conflict between humans and demons, everyone will inevitably choose to fight alongside Gu Yiguan.

But after Adie died—

The old stories it brought up, however, would become a point of attack for other sects against the Star-Picking Tower.

Without a common enemy, everyone will return to their own positions and demand an explanation.

Gu Yiguan will be thrust into the spotlight.

Ah Die will definitely die.

She may have been aware of this all along.

Therefore, she was scheming about what would happen after her death, wanting to use this conflict to cause trouble for Gu Yiguan as revenge.

Therefore, what Gu Yiguan wanted to avoid was settling scores afterward.

What she wanted was to get away unscathed and not cause any trouble for Zhaixinglou.

Although he has reached the Nascent Soul stage, there are Nascent Soul stage cultivators in various sects. The current strength and foundation of the Star-Picking Tower are not enough to support Gu Yiguan's unbridled actions.

Therefore, she needs to gain Ruan Ayao's trust.

The Zhaixing Tower and the Taibai Sect were already on good terms, and as the weakest of the four sects, they had a mutual support intention.

But humans are not entirely rational.

Gu Yiguan had seen too many people who, after acting impulsively and getting carried away with their passion, would disregard everything else.

As she once said, she could also take "loyalty" into consideration if necessary.

She had to take into account Ruan Ayao's emotional inclinations.

Now that Ruan Ayao has witnessed the existence of the Blood Erosion Curse firsthand and made her stance clear, she will naturally speak up for her as someone who experienced it firsthand.

Then there's no need to stop anymore.

After many years.

Gu Yiguan's momentum grew stronger.

Ruan Ayao silently watched her back, looking at the unstoppable halberd and the terrifying lightning that blotted out the sky, which would destroy everything.

During those vibrant, passionate, and unrestrained years, Gu Yiguan always appeared silent.

She and Ah Die once tricked Gu Yiguan into going to the mountains to see fireflies under the pretext of having important business.

They chatted about many things.

Unfortunately, she remembered the rare beauty of the night and the fluttering of butterflies, but Gu Yiguan remembered "rotten grass turning into fireflies," remembering that such demons could scatter their cultivation in the mountains and fields to prolong their lives.

When the halberd pierced through Adie's body without hesitation, Ruan Ayao gasped for breath.

"You petty scoundrels, spreading rumors and trouble!"

Gu Yiguan's voice rang in my ears.

She belatedly realized that the scattered, firefly-like points of light were dissipating and disappearing.

Knowing that humans and demons are different and that principles must take precedence over morality, she couldn't let her emotions cloud her judgment. But when this scene actually happened, it still gave her a feeling of waking up from a dream.

"Fellow Daoist Ruan, are you alright?"

Zhu Wuyao carried Luo Budao, who had been knocked unconscious by her palm, back to Ruan Ayao's side.

Let alone Ruan Ayao.

Even she was somewhat surprised that the matter was resolved so easily.

It's a waste of her time to live in fear.

The gap between small sects and large sects is indeed enormous. Two Nascent Soul stage cultivators joining forces could be a catastrophe for the Seven Illusions Sect.

It's unclear what's wrong with that sorcerer from Tongzhou and Luo Budao.

That girl, Ah Die, actually rushed in this direction even at such a critical moment.

Pity.

Ah Die discovered her true identity.

In the end, he didn't ask what the clues were about the "place of chaotic fate," but since the Seven Illusions Sect of Star Pointing had been destroyed, he might be able to find some clues by carefully reviewing the records afterward.

There's another regrettable thing—

Zhu Wuyao overestimated the troublesome nature of this matter.

She had prepared a backup plan, but she didn't have to use it!

If she had known Gu Yiguan would act so decisively, why would she have bothered? The event is already over, and she still hasn't made it... That's just too unreliable!

Just as Zhu Wuyao was feeling heartbroken, he suddenly felt a lightness on his back.

Behind him, Luo Budao, even while unconscious, began to circulate his internal energy on his own.

Zhu Wuyao still remembers what Luo Budao once said—

"The cultivation method I practice is rather unstable, and it often leaks out, and I don't know how to solve it."

But here and now, in this situation!

This is obviously wrong!

The vanished light spots and butterfly shadows reunited. Ah Die's cultivation level was not high, but she was superior because she was invisible, elusive, and immortal.

It seems that they need to rely on the Taoist magic practiced by Luo Budao to regain their breath!

Gu Yiguan never let his guard down. As soon as the strange phenomenon appeared, he immediately looked up and found the root of the problem.

Zhu Wuyao was constantly circulating his spiritual power and setting up a barrier in an attempt to stop the strange phenomenon.

Suddenly, I noticed a gaze.

She looked up and met Gu Yiguan's eyes, immediately realizing something. She turned and ran, carrying Luo Budao on her back, not forgetting to say while still wearing her disguise:

"Fellow Daoist Gu! Enough people have died today. This little demon looks exceptionally nourishing. Why don't you give it to me to make soup!"

She didn't want to cause trouble for Gu Yiguan.

But she didn't want Luo Budao to lose his life just to get rid of the trouble!

The familiar voice rang out again, as if it wanted to stir up trouble, echoing through the valleys and forests—

"Hahahaha, seeing you go on a killing spree that day, I thought you were someone who only respected heaven and earth and disregarded human ethics, but I never expected... you are still much stronger than her..."

I wish I could get a chill down my spine.

I felt that my online persona was in grave danger.

A massacre is about to begin?

Was his entire behavior under Adie's watchful eye from beginning to end?

Gu Yiguan struck down from behind with lightning. Although he held back, he was still forcing her to put down Luo Budao behind her, wanting to completely eliminate the threat and resolve this strange phenomenon.

Fortunately, Elder Liao could see that Ah Die was nearing the end of her life and was merely clinging to life. He stopped Gu Yiguan and also wanted to hear what was going on.

No, this isn't good either!

If she reveals it, not only will her true identity be exposed, but Gu Yiguan's secrets might also be revealed. Wouldn't that be the end of her?

"Fellow Daoist Wu, your poetry is poor, but your conduct is admirable. Let me uncover the past and give you a chance before I die. You should run away first; this little demon will be fine."

Looks like my disguise won't be exposed...

but!

Can I refuse this opportunity? You should shut up.

Zhu Wuyao was chased by Gu Yiguan in front of everyone, running away with his head in his hands, looking quite disheveled.

"Fellow Daoist Gu, why not listen to what this little demon has to say? Besides, she said she wanted to give Fellow Daoist Wu a chance opportunity; are you going to ruin it for him?"

Elder Liao, while trying to stop Gu Yiguan's pursuit, added fuel to the fire.

He wasn't deliberately adding fuel to the fire, but he genuinely wanted to hear what was going on, since what A-Die said also involved his Qingyun Sect disciples.

Upon hearing these words, Zhu Wuyao was utterly speechless.

This would make it seem like I was deliberately going against Gu Yiguan for the sake of an opportunity!

Just as she was caught in a dilemma, a scene slowly took shape in mid-air, like a projection of the past.

"Ah Guan, if you're not going, you'd better take good care of our belongings!"

In the video, Ruan Ayao's voice can be heard.
