Until the end, Jun Linxuan still did not give a positive or negative reply to Jun Xiaomo's suggestion of establishing another sect, but his attitude was obviously not as repulsive and firm as before.
In the final analysis, he still cared more about the safety and future of the disciples of Lintian Peak than the Xuyang Sect, and the sect's pressing step by step made his heart grow colder and colder.
After Jun Xiaomo and Jun Linxuan left, the fifth elder of Xuyang Sect sneered coldly and said, "Like father, like daughter. Jun Xiaomo's bad temper is even tougher than her father's. How dare you contradict us elders, it’s really lawless.”
The second elder took a sip of tea and said calmly: "A newborn calf is not afraid of tigers. She has never experienced strong winds and waves, and she thought her parents could protect her for the rest of her life. Naturally, no one will notice her. Sooner or later, she will have to fall down hard."
"I'm afraid, it won't take too long for you to fall down, right? Humph, don't the people from Lintian Peak pride themselves on their outstanding abilities? Let them all participate in the team battle this time to see if they have the ability to come back with a ranking! "The peak master of Danding Peak said with a sneer.
As the master of a peak, he has long disliked Jun Linxuan - every time he mentions Xuyang Sect, the first thing that comes to mind is Lintian Peak. Under the light of Lintian Peak, his Danding Peak looks like As a foil, the sense of existence is extremely weak.
This made the master of Danding Peak gnash his teeth secretly for a long time.
This time, it was good. All the disciples from Lintian Peak were driven away from the qualifying team battle. Whether they could come out alive was still unknown. The peak master of Danding Peak was naturally happy to see this happen.
He could almost foresee a future in which most of Jun Linxuan's disciples would be lost in team battles.
In fact, no one present did not think so, it was just that everyone tacitly understood each other and did not express this idea directly.
Some of them want to assassinate Jun Linxuan and get the resources in Jun Linxuan's hands, some simply dislike Jun Linxuan, and the more unlucky he is, the happier he will be, and some want to protect themselves wisely, even though they have no enmity with Jun Linxuan. But he didn't intend to stand up and speak for the other party, lest he get burned.
He Zhang pretended to sigh and said: "Actually, we all have good intentions. I didn't expect that Junior Brother Jun would be so impulsive and actually bring up the matter of leaving the sect."
"Ha, no matter whether he leaves or not, we won't suffer anyway. In any case, Lintian Peak is also a part of our Xuyang Sect. Is it possible that he can take the entire peak away?" The fifth elder sneered, "Yes. It’s okay to leave the sect, he just leaves Lintian Peak’s resources to us and leaves cleanly.”
What's more, after this team battle, Lintian Peak will definitely be severely weakened. By then, only Jun Linxuan and his wife will be left struggling to support them. What big waves can they make
Others were also silently agreeing with what the fifth elder said, and the corners of their lips slowly raised a smile that seemed both mocking and expectant.
The return of Jun Xiaomo and Jun Linxuan caused the entire Lintian Peak to be shrouded in gloom and gloom. Wei Gaolang's baby face turned red with anger, he clenched his fists and cursed angrily: "These old turtles! Old guys! Old bastards! They are simply bullying others too much!!!"
This bunch of curse words... Chen Feiyu gave him a hammer on the forehead helplessly, causing Wei Gaolang to reflexively hold his head and mutter: "Senior Brother Chen bullied me again..."
Jun Xiaomo was also very angry, but the matter was at this point, and no amount of anger and complaints would help. Just like those old guys said, the list of team battles has been handed in, and the competition organizing committee will no longer allow changes, let alone withdraw from the competition. These are all regulations.
It can only be said that she still underestimated the hatefulness of He Zhang's group of people.
"For the current plan, we can only think carefully about how we want to compete." Jun Xiaomo sighed and said.
Everyone felt that what Jun Xiaomo said was reasonable, so they sat together and discussed specific plans to deal with the competition.
The night is as cold as water, and the cool moonlight replaces the warmth of the sun, washing away all the impetuousness of the whole day. There was a competition the next day, but Jun Xiaomo tossed and turned in bed, unable to fall asleep no matter what, so he had to get out of bed and go to the window, staring at the deserted street and emptying his messy and heavy thoughts.
The dim candlelight cast a long and narrow silhouette on the window sill and on the door curtain, silent and lonely, making people feel for no reason that the shadow was filled with heavy thoughts and desolate emotions.
"Dudu." Two deep knocks sounded outside the door.
Jun Xiaomo was stunned for a moment, and when he came back from his complicated thoughts, he couldn't help but frown -
It's so late, why would anyone look for me
"Who?" Jun Xiaomo asked warily without opening the door.
There is a formation on her door. As long as the door is not opened, her room will have an extra layer of security.
"It's me." A low and steady voice came from the door.
Brother Rong? Jun Xiaomo put down his worries, walked to the door, and opened the door.
Rong Ruihan stood at the door, his clothes neatly dressed and smelling of travel dust. It was obvious that he had just returned here not long ago.
"I went back to Lieyan Country to deal with some things a few days ago, and I just came back tonight. I didn't expect to see you still awake, so I came here to take a look." Rong Ruihan said warmly.
Jun Xiaomo smiled and said, "Brother Rong is really thoughtful."
In fact, there was no need for Rong Ruihan to rush back so quickly. After all, this game had little to do with Rong Ruihan. But Jun Xiaomo knew that there was no need to say such words, because the reason why Rong Ruihan rushed back was, She understands too.
"If you can't sleep, why don't you go for a walk?" Rong Ruihan glanced at Jun Xiaomo's bed. The quilt on it was still neatly folded.
"Okay, I was just about to go out and get some fresh air." Jun Xiaomo said with a smile.
Rong Ruihan walked to the corridor and leaned against the railing.
"Why, have you encountered anything troublesome? You haven't slept for so long."
Jun Xiaomo sighed lightly and said with a wry smile: "Brother Rong, nothing can be hidden from your eyes."
"Then would you like to talk to Brother Rong? If you have troubles, it will make you feel better if you talk about it."
Jun Xiaomo shook his head and said, "It's really hard to explain in words. I don't know where to start."
Rong Ruihan raised his eyebrows and said, "Then tell me slowly?"
"Let's put it this way, I will participate in a team battle tomorrow. Brother Rong, please wish me good luck." Jun Xiaomo pretended to be relaxed and showed a smile, but it looked more like he curled his lips helplessly.
"Team fight? Why do you need to play in the team fight?" Rong Ruihan frowned.
"Besides those people, who else could be the masterpiece?" Jun Xiaomo shrugged, "Those old guys in the sect got anxious and tampered with the team battle list. Haha, we were stunned. Everyone from Tianfeng has been put on board, they really think highly of us."
Rong Ruihan felt a raging anger in his heart. If possible, he really wanted to kill the group of people from the Xuyang Sect directly!
"Then what do you do?"
"What else can we do? We can only bite the bullet." Jun Xiaomo said, his eyes suddenly turned cold, "However, if they think this will make us unable to do anything, then they have thought wrong. We are so cold." People from Tianfeng will never be defeated so easily."
"Well, I believe in Xiaomo's ability." Rong Ruihan patted Jun Xiaomo on the shoulder and said, "However, I think the best way is to find a way to leave the Xuyang Sect and let Senior Jun establish a sect on his own. "
"I mentioned this matter to my father today. He seems to have loosened up a bit and is no longer so insistent on staying in this ghost place of Xuyang Sect."
"That's for sure, it would be chilling for anyone to encounter something like this."
Jun Xiaomo lowered his eyes and stopped talking - in fact, why wasn't she the same? If she hadn't experienced some things in her past life and this life, how could she have completely lost any nostalgia for the Xuyang Sect
After all, she grew up in this place...
Jun Xiaomo's lonely look made Rong Ruihan feel a little distressed. He thought for a while, walked behind Jun Xiaomo, and seemed to be half-hugging Jun Xiaomo.
"Brother Rong, what are you doing?!" Jun Xiaomo's whole body suddenly became tense.
It was not that she was on guard against Rong Ruihan, but that she felt that this behavior was too ambiguous and made her feel extremely embarrassed. The word "uncomfortable" could be seen in every part of her body.
"Don't be nervous." Rong Ruihan whispered, his voice penetrating into Jun Xiaomo's eardrums at a very close distance.
Immediately, his fingers pinched the... earring on Jun Xiaomo's earlobe.
Earrings? Jun Xiaomo suddenly remembered that this earring was given by Rong Ruihan. It contained a trace of the energy he input and had a certain protective effect.
Some red light came out of Rong Ruihan's hand, and Jun Xiaomo felt that his earlobes were slightly hot.
Of course, this was not her imagination.
After a moment, Rong Ruihan took a step back, patted Jun Xiaomo on the shoulder and said, "Okay."
Jun Xiaomo touched his earlobe and felt as if there was still warmth left on it.
"This is… "
"I have increased the power contained in your earrings, which can improve its defensive capabilities. In this case, the game will have an extra layer of protection." Rong Ruihan explained in a calm voice.
Jun Xiaomo looked up at Rong Ruihan, not noticing anything strange in his expression.
It seems that he was too sensitive, Jun Xiaomo thought awkwardly, and at the same time, he felt guilty for misunderstanding Rong Ruihan's behavior for a moment.
"Thank you, Brother Rong." Jun Xiaomo smiled and showed a sincere and bright smile to Rong Ruihan.
Being interrupted by Rong Ruihan, the heaviness in her heart also disappeared a lot.
At least, with her experiences in her previous life, she believed that He Zhang's group would not be so easy to succeed.
Rong Ruihan's eyes dimmed for a moment. He really wanted to hold Jun Xiaomo in his arms just now and tell her not to worry, but Jun Xiaomo's resistance in words and his reason made him suppress his response. down behavior.
Fortunately, there is still the earring in Jun Xiaomo's ear...
"You're welcome. It seems that you can sleep now, right?" Rong Ruihan calmed down and teased Jun Xiaomo.
"Yes, it's all thanks to you, Brother Rong~" Jun Xiaomo gave Rong Ruihan a friendly blow on the shoulder, "That's it. I have to get up early to prepare for the team battle tomorrow. I have to go and have a good sleep. Go to sleep, Brother Rong is tired today, so go to bed early."
"Well, okay, good night."
"Good night, Brother Rong."
After Jun Xiaomo said goodbye to Rong Ruihan, he turned and walked back to the room. Before closing the door, she waved to Rong Ruihan and asked Rong Ruihan to go back.
Rong Ruihan nodded, and after Jun Xiaomo closed the door, he stayed outside for a while.
It wasn't until the moonlight stretched the shadow of the tree longer that he turned around and walked to his room.
Under the shadow of the tree, two people walked out, a man and a woman.
"I didn't expect that, I didn't expect that there will be a team battle tomorrow, and Jun Xiaomo is still thinking about meeting her lover at night." Yu Wanrou said softly, but her eyes fell from the railing on the third floor, and fell lightly on the onto Qin Lingyu beside him.
Since they did not need to participate in tomorrow's team battle, Yu Wan, who had been lonely for a long time, begged Qin Lingyu for a long time and asked him to accompany her on a night tour of Xianhe Peak to enjoy the beautiful scenery on Xianhe Peak.
As for whether it was a pure "night tour" or another "activity", only the two of them knew.
What they didn't expect was that after the night outing, they could actually watch a "good show". From their point of view, Rong Ruihan had just held Jun Xiaomo in his arms.
Yu Wanrou felt that it was very stupid for Jun Xiaomo to give up Qin Lingyu and choose Rong Ruihan instead. No matter how powerful Rong Ruihan was, he was a demon cultivator and was mixed up with demon cultivators. Cultivators will definitely not end well in the future.
Therefore, she would not be jealous that Jun Xiaomo could win the favor of Rong Ruihan, the eldest prince of Lieyan Kingdom. In her opinion, firmly grasping Qin Lingyu's heart is the most important thing at this stage.
She just said this specifically to test Qin Lingyu's reaction.
She always felt that when Jun Xiaomo appeared in seclusion for a whole year, Qin Lingyu's attitude towards Jun Xiaomo changed a lot.
Are you kidding me? Did Qin Lingyu come to express that she "likes her ex even more" after she spent so much effort to win over Qin Lingyu
This is absolutely not allowed! She doesn't allow anyone she likes to have another woman in his heart!
Qin Lingyu is He Zhang's proud disciple and has long since become a human spirit under He Zhang's guidance. How could he not see the little ones in Yu Wanrou's heart
To be honest, the moment he saw Jun Xiaomo and Rong Ruihan, he did feel an inexplicable anger in his heart.
This kind of anger came and went quickly. When he remembered that he and Jun Xiaomo had long ceased to have a nominal "unmarried couple" relationship, it seemed as if a hammer had hit him hard in the heart, and he was also stunned. A wake up call.
At first, he felt that Jun Xiaomo loved him so much that he would not fall in love with someone else so easily. Even if Jun Xiaomo proposed to cancel the engagement, he would have to suffer psychological torture.
Unexpectedly, Jun Xiaomo is living happily now and has not been affected at all. I am afraid that he has forgotten the existence of the engagement a long time ago, right
This gave Qin Lingyu an embarrassing feeling of being rejected by others.
Yes, it must be because of this that he feels angry, Qin Lingyu thought with a deep and uncertain look in his eyes. As the proud son of heaven, how have he ever been disliked by others? Jun Xiaomo is still the first!
Qin Lingyu couldn't describe what this felt like, but it made him very unhappy anyway.
Forget it, after tomorrow, it is still unknown whether this woman will be alive or not, Qin Lingyu squinted his eyes and thought to himself.
"It's getting late, let's go back." Qin Lingyu collected his thoughts and said to Yu Wanrou.
Yu Wan softly hugged his hand, smiled softly and said, "Okay," but she felt very uninterested in her heart.
Qin Lingyu just now was obviously distracted and didn't notice what she said at all.
Yu Wanrou hoped more and more that Jun Xiaomo would die in the team battle.
