"Stop!" Two voices rang out one after the other. Before Jun Xiaomo could free herself from the dizzy state of severe pain, a blue figure walked quickly to her side and helped her up.
"Cough..." Jun Xiaomo coughed, and the smell of blood filled his throat again. The figures in front of her were sometimes clear and sometimes blurry. It took Jun Xiaomo a while to barely recognize who was supporting her: "Elder Yu..."
Yu Zhuolian is the seventh elder of Xuyang Sect and the only female cultivator among the top ten elders of Xuyang Sect.
"Don't talk yet." Yu Zhuolian pressed Jun Xiaomo's shoulder, then took out a bottle of pills from her arms, poured two pills out, and quickly stuffed them into Jun Xiaomo's mouth. Jun Xiaomo's mouth was full of the smell of blood, and the taste of the pills made her feel sick, but she still frowned and chewed a few times before swallowing it.
Not long after the elixir entered his stomach, a burst of warmth rose up and flowed into his limbs. The pain in Jun Xiaomo's back was relieved a lot, and the dizziness slowly disappeared.
After finally recovering her body, she unexpectedly got injured again. She was really in trouble. Jun Xiaomo thought with a wry smile. Fortunately, she met Elder Yu Zhuolian. If she had met anyone else, she would still have been in trouble. It may not be possible to take the elixir to suppress the injury so quickly.
The relationship between Yu Zhuolian and Jun Xiaomo's parents can only be regarded as average, but she has her own set of principles in life and will never do anything to add insult to injury. Therefore, after Jun Xiaomo was imprisoned due to the outbreak of demonic energy and the death of his parents in his previous life, although she did not take more care of Jun Xiaomo, she would not stare greedily at Lintian Peak like other elders of the sect. Find a way to get those spiritual weapons and elixirs into your hands.
"Thank you, Elder Yu." Jun Xiaomo solemnly thanked Yu Zhuolian. Unfortunately, his hands and feet had little strength, and his whole body was limp and light, so he felt weak to express his thanks.
"Yes." Yu Zhuolian just responded to Jun Xiaomo lightly, then her face darkened, she raised her head and said to her friend standing not far away, "Laifeng, your daughter is responsible for this matter. She is Shouldn’t we, the disciples of the Xuyang Sect, give an explanation?”
Yu Zhuolian was usually a very serious person, but now he had a completely straight face and glanced coldly at Dai Yue who was next to Qiu Laifeng, making Dai Yue feel uneasy knowing that he had gotten into trouble.
Qiu Laifeng sighed and said to Dai Yue: "Dai Yue, apologize to this sister."
Dai Yue is two years older than Jun Xiaomo, so it is normal for her to call Jun Xiaomo "sister".
Dai Yue's lips moved, and after struggling with her expression, she reluctantly muttered: "I'm sorry."
The moment she saw Jun Xiaomo flying out, she felt a little regretful.
Dai Yue and Qiu Laifeng came over today to see if they could meet Qin Lingyu. However, Qin Lingyu didn't meet her, but she met Jun Xiaomo, who was engaged to Qin Lingyu. Dai Yue was annoyed by Jun Xiaomo's attitude. He completely forgot that the opponent's cultivation had dropped to the level of Qi training, and he acted without any sense of measure.
Dai Yue was impulsive, but she was not a fool. She severely injured the other party on their territory. If people from the Xuyang Sect pursued her, it would be a question whether she and her mother could leave.
However, when her mother really asked her to apologize to her love rival, Dai Yue felt awkward and suffocated, so the tone of her apology was not very pleasant.
Yu Zhuolian's face darkened: "Laifeng, you and I are friends, and I have watched Dai Yue grow up, but I cannot give in on this matter. If it is left to the sect, I cannot guarantee that Dai Yue will Yue can step out from here safely and unharmed!"
Although Yu Zhuolian and Qiu Laifeng have a very good relationship in private, the relationship between the Xuyang Sect and the Hengyue Sect is on the same level. Knowing that a disciple of the Hengyue Sect hurt someone on their own territory, the Xuyang Sect may not In this way, Heng Yuezong was threatened and forced to scrape off a layer of skin.
Qiu Laifeng also thought of this, her face paled slightly, and her tone towards Dai Yue suddenly became much harsher: "Dai Yue, apologize!"
Dai Yue originally wanted to be tough, but when Yu Zhuolian brushed her off coldly, she instantly became weak.
"Jun Xiaomo, I'm sorry." This time, Dai Yue's tone was much more truthful.
Qiu Laifeng felt that her daughter was enough like this. She looked at Jun Xiaomo, who was half lying on the ground and seemed less weak after taking medicine, and added: "I will add three more fifth-grade Yuan Yuan Dan. How about just letting it go?"
A fifth-grade high-grade Yuan Yuan Dan is very tempting to a cultivator. For an injury like Jun Xiaomo's, one fifth-grade high-grade Yuan Yuan Dan can completely heal her, let alone three.
Qiu Laifeng felt that Jun Xiaomo would not refuse this tempting offer, so she calmly waited for Jun Xiaomo to nod.
Jun Xiaomo squinted at the expressions of Qiu Laifeng and Dai Yue. The former seemed to be giving alms to a beggar, while the latter was leaning against her mother's side, looking at Jun Xiaomo with only resentment in her eyes. , and the occasional glance at Yu Zhuolian contained a hint of fear.
Oh, there are all kinds of expressions, but there is no trace of guilt in it. Is it because of the few pills in Qiu Laifeng's hand that she was injured? ! Jun Xiaomo suddenly felt angry in his heart.
This anger was not only caused by Qiu Laifeng and Dai Yue, mother and daughter, but also by the anger towards her current situation where she could only be manipulated by others.
If she was still at the peak of her previous life, how could these people dare to look at her like this!
The unwillingness in Jun Xiaomo's heart gradually swelled. He was not willing to be defeated so easily, and he was not willing to be chased and beaten forever!
The frost in Jun Xiaomo's eyes grew deeper and deeper. She was extremely angry, but her heart calmed down.
With the corner of his lips raised, Jun Xiaomo said slowly: "Dai Yue, I would rather not apologize sincerely."
"You!" Dai Yue opened her eyes angrily, feeling that Jun Xiaomo was deliberately trying to find fault.
"Then what does this little fellow Taoist want? You might as well tell me." Qiu Laifeng's tone was slightly dissatisfied, and the look he looked at Jun Xiaomo was a little more unkind.
Yu Zhuolian raised her eyebrows. For the first time, she realized that her friend's character seemed not to be very good either. At least, Dai Yue was wrong. What did she mean by this attitude? This is not how you pamper your daughter.
"Jun Xiaomo's father is the peak master of Lintian Peak." Yu Zhuolian reminded Qiu Laifeng in a nonchalant manner.
Qiu Laifeng's face darkened. She knew that the master of Xuyang Sect's Lintian Peak had a daughter, and that he had stolen Yueyue's sweetheart. She didn't expect that it was the little girl in front of her.
Seeing Jun Xiaomo's fragile appearance, Qiu Laifeng felt even more contemptuous: What about the daughter of the Lord of the Peak? It's not as powerful as her daughter. That person named Qin Lingyu is blind because he didn't choose Yueyue but the little girl in front of him who couldn't take an attack!
Although she thought so, Qiu Laifeng would still give some face to Jun Xiaomo's father: "Since she is the daughter of the master of a peak, it is no wonder that she does not like the fifth-grade high-grade elixir. This little Taoist friend Tell me, how can you be willing not to pursue what just happened? However, you should keep a thin line in your life so that we can meet each other easily in the future. I believe that fellow Taoists have also heard this sentence. I hope that fellow Taoists will not be too greedy. "
How could Jun Xiaomo not see the contempt in Qiu Laifeng's eyes? What's more, Qiu Laifeng's tone is really not the attitude that a fault party should adopt, as if she is the one occupying the commanding heights of the negotiation.
"Ha." Jun Xiaomo sneered and said slowly, "It's the same sentence. I don't need an apology that is not sincere."
"You!" Dai Yue was about to yell, but Qiu Laifeng stopped him with a hand.
Qiu Laifeng said in a cold tone: "I think I should also remind my little fellow Taoist that my husband is the great elder of Heng Yue Sect."
In other words, in terms of status, Qiu Laifeng's husband does not belong to Jun Xiaomo's father at all, and is even slightly higher - because the master of a peak is only a powerful master, while the elder can hold the real power of the sect. , if there is a real confrontation, Jun Xiaomo's father will definitely not be able to get a favor, unless he can get the support of the entire sect.
Jun Xiaomo narrowed her eyes, hiding the coldness in her eyes.
After being silent for a while, Jun Xiaomo said to Qiu Laifeng and Dai Yue: "The year after next will be the intermediate sect qualifying competition held every five years. I originally made an agreement with Dai Yue, whoever wins the qualifying competition." Whoever has the other party is qualified to pursue Qin Lingyu, and the other party withdraws unconditionally, but now I am really not interested in this kind of condition, how about I decide to change the condition? "
"In exchange for what?" Dai Yue asked angrily, glaring at Jun Xiaomo several times.
Qin Lingyu has already made an engagement with you, so of course that condition cannot count. I’m so angry! Dai Yue thought angrily.
Jun Xiaomo raised his lips and smiled: "I decided to change it... If I win you, then you will apologize to me in front of everyone, and make me feel that your attitude is sincere enough until I am satisfied. How? Sample?"
Dai Yue was slightly stunned. She originally thought Jun Xiaomo would make some difficult request, but she didn't expect that she would be asked to apologize in front of everyone.
"That's it?" Dai Yue asked in disbelief.
"That's it, but you have to pay attention to the premise, it's 'until I'm satisfied', that is to say, if your expression, movement and tone of apology are not in place, I will let you keep apologizing." Jun Xiaomo was not worried. Said slowly.
"Ha, you think you can win me now? What a joke! Okay, Jun Xiaomo, I promise you. However, if I win, you will break off your engagement with brother Ling Yu. How about that?" Dai Yue Smiling evilly, she felt that Jun Xiaomo would hesitate.
"Okay." Jun Xiaomo said with a smile, stroking his hands, "It's a pretty good bet, I'll accept it."
She originally wanted to terminate her engagement with Qin Lingyu. This would be better, and she would not suffer any loss whether she won or lost.
"You..." Dai Yue didn't expect Jun Xiaomo to agree without thinking. He looked at Jun Xiaomo suspiciously, wondering if she had any conspiracy.
Jun Xiaomo looked at her openly. Although she was still half lying on the ground, the calmness on his face remained unchanged.
Qiu Laifeng also felt that Jun Xiaomo agreed too quickly. She had experienced many more things than Dai Yue, so she would naturally think about problems more convolutedly. Her mind turned around, and she realized that she had grasped the key point and said: "This little Taoist friend's marriage contract was made by the head of the Xuyang Sect, right? I'm afraid that even if the bet is established, your marriage contract will not be so easy to dissolve. In the end, It’s me, Yueyue, who suffers.”
Jun Xiaomo almost laughed out loud at Qiu Laifeng: Her daughter suffered a loss? Are you kidding me? Who was it that Yiling belt beat her to serious injuries? The fact that she chose a bet instead of directly triggering a fight between the two sects was considered "good" on her part! This woman actually goes even further? !
"Then what kind of bet do you want?" The person who spoke this time was Yu Zhuolian. She was completely disappointed in her friend Qiu Laifeng. She was not able to accept the unprincipled behavior of doting on her daughter. She disagreed. We are cooperating with each other. After sending them away from the sect this time, there will be no need to communicate with each other.
Qiu Laifeng also heard the coldness in Yu Zhuolian's words, but she didn't think there was anything wrong in defending her daughter. Her daughter is the child of the great elder of Heng Yue Sect and should not be embarrassed and wronged in front of outsiders.
Qiu Laifeng thought for a while and said to Jun Xiaomo: "How about this. Let's each change it to a condition. This condition does not limit the content, but it must not harm lives, neither sects, nor harm the laws of nature. How about it?"
"That is to say, if I win Dai Yue in two years, she will have to agree to a condition for me. This condition can be an apology or something else?" Jun Xiaomo asked with raised eyebrows.
"Yes, and vice versa. If Yueyue wins you, you have to agree to one of her conditions." Qiu Laifeng felt that this bet was the fairest.
Jun Xiaomo pointed his fingers and glanced sideways at the two mother and daughter opposite, which elicited a sneer from Dai Yue - she knew that this Jun Xiaomo was a strong man. look! Don't you dare agree to this bet? A person who is at the first level of Qi training wants to beat himself who is at the eighth level of Qi training within two years? What a joke!
When Dai Yue's patience was about to be worn out, Jun Xiaomo nodded slowly and said, "Okay, the bet is established."
"Xiaomo!" Yu Zhuolian spoke out, wanting to express her objection - this bet is too unfair to Jun Xiaomo! She really regretted bringing Qiu Laifeng and her daughter back to the sect as guests today.
"Elder Yu, there is no need to persuade me, I have made up my mind." Jun Xiaomo waved his hand, then said with a smile, "Although the chance of winning is not high, this is exciting enough, isn't it?"
She never minds challenges. Only when there are challenges can she be motivated. This is the characteristic of a demon cultivator.
"Hey, just know that you can't win, you're a first-level qi-training waste!" Dai Yue whispered, her eyes flickered, and then she said to Jun Xiaomo, "I also agree to this bet, I agree You can’t change it after you come down.”
"I will never change it. By the way, how about Elder Yu being the certifier?" Jun Xiaomo turned around and asked.
Yu Zhuolian was silent for a moment. Seeing that Jun Xiaomo had no intention of changing her mind, she could only nod her head and said, "Okay."
Qiu Laifeng was relieved, while Dai Yue showed a confident smile and mouthed to Jun Xiaomo: You are dead!
Jun Xiaomo smiled calmly—it was still unclear who would win.
