This woman, in terms of appearance, personality and temperament, was completely different from the two generations of Suzaku that she remembered.
She must have been so eager for those people to come back that she mistook strangers for those who had left twice in a row.
Zhuque looked at the shock and expectation in the girl's eyes, which slowly turned into disappointment, and couldn't help but ask, "Girl, do you know me?"
Xi Yue shook her head and remained silent.
Zhuque looked at the loneliness and sadness in her eyes, and for some reason he felt a surge of pity for her. Even his voice softened a bit, "Girl, no matter how you have suffered in the past, as long as you follow our master, your future will be bright. Even if we use elixirs to raise your cultivation to the Kongming stage, it will be a piece of cake."
The Kongming Stage represents a lifespan of a thousand years, and is also the dividing line between warriors and cultivators. Reaching the Kongming Stage means being able to attain the realm of living as long as the heaven and earth.
For an ordinary warrior, such a promise would definitely make him ecstatic. Not to mention sacrificing his life, he would even be willing to work like a slave.
But Xi Yue didn't feel anything. She had advanced from a mortal with no talent for cultivation to the peak of the Golden Core Stage in less than two years. Although the Void Stage was far away for others, she firmly believed that she would reach it one day.
So she said calmly: "What if I don't want it and insist on leaving?"
Zhuque frowned and his voice became cold. "If you want to die, you can leave the temple. There is evil spirit everywhere on the Biluo Peak, and there are defensive barriers. You have no spiritual power now. If you go out, you will be completely devoured by the evil spirit and not even your bones will be left."
Xi Yue's expression became even colder, with anger gushing out of her eyes. "So, you're going to imprison me in this room?"
"How could that be?" Zhuque immediately smiled and said in a soft and charming voice, "I have asked people to prepare various clothes for you. After you take a bath and change into them, you can go out for a walk. It doesn't matter if you want to take a bath in the Wuqing Lingquan. Just remember not to leave the temple."
"The master will visit you tonight. As long as you serve him well, he may take you back to the temple and let you stay with him forever. By then, you will become the most supreme being in the Siamese continent. This is an opportunity that many people cannot even dream of!"
Serve you sister! Opportunity you sister! Even though Xi Yue was calm, she couldn't help but swear at this moment.
So she was still under house arrest! And she was asked to serve that bastard at night? Dream on!
Xi Yue exhaled slowly, suppressed the coldness in her eyes, and looked like a simple and harmless little girl with her drooping eyebrows.

Zhuque arranged clothes and food for Xi Yue, and after confirming that she had no intention of escaping again, he arranged for two maids in the Spirit Severing Stage to serve Xi Yue as she left.
Ji Mingyu had just woken up, and many of the forces under his command heard the news and came to pay their respects to him. There were also matters that had been piling up for five years that needed to be dealt with, so Qinglong, Suzaku and the other seven were all very busy.
The only one who is sneaky and runs away every time when it comes to doing serious work is probably the glutton who only knows how to eat.
As soon as Baihu entered the room, he couldn't help but yelled, "I heard that the master personally brought back a woman. Zhuque, tell me, is it true? This is a rumor, right? It must be a rumor, right?" (To be continued)
