Chapter 207 I will never be your enemy
Things seem to be getting more and more complicated. Could it be that there are still some remnants in the Demon Realm that he has not completely tamed, who are secretly manipulating this matter in order to sabotage the cooperation between the Boundless Sword Sect and the Demon Realm?
But the timeline doesn't make sense either. If it was meant to be sabotaged, it should have happened the first time they cooperated...
Yun Fuzhao couldn't figure it out for the moment. She stepped forward to check Qi Ming's breathing and, after confirming that he was still alive, she breathed a sigh of relief.
"Let's stop the bleeding first."
Just as Yun Fuzhao was about to take out a hemostatic pill from his storage bag to feed him, Yu Ze grabbed his wrist.
"what happened?"
Yu Ze, expressionless, snatched the hemostatic pill from her hand and casually and roughly stuffed it into Qi Ming's mouth.
The movements were so brutal that Qi Ming, who was on the shelf, started coughing, his brows furrowing deeply.
Yun Fuzhao: "..."
The other person gradually woke up because of the noise. He opened his eyes and saw Yu Ze's cold and gloomy face. His heart skipped a beat and he almost thought he had met a demon from hell.
It took him a long time to realize that this was his own master.
"woke up?"
Qi Ming's voice was hoarse, "Your Excellency."
He glanced around and determined that he was in the Endless Prison. Seeing himself there, a fleeting look of surprise crossed his face. "What mistake have I made?"
Yun Fuzhao and Yu Ze exchanged a glance, and then she asked, "You don't remember anything?"
Qi Ming then noticed that there was a woman next to the Venerable One. After seeing her face clearly, he recognized her as the Venerable One's beloved.
He respectfully greeted, "Sect Master Yun."
Qi Ming asked, puzzled, "What should I remember?"
Yu Ze briefly recounted what had happened, and Qi Ming became increasingly surprised as he listened. "This subordinate has absolutely no recollection of this."
This is going to be difficult.
Some are dead, others have amnesia. There's simply no way to investigate.
However, according to what the female disciple said earlier, it was Lü Siyuan who started the trouble first, so maybe we can start with him.
The mishap during their one-day trip to the Demon Realm has other sects eagerly awaiting their downfall, especially the Xuan Tian Sect. The fact that it happened right after they organized their Ghost Realm trip has ironically reversed the Ghost Realm's reputation and reinforced the Demon Realm's negative image.
Yun Fuzhao didn't care what others thought about their cooperation; what she cared more about was how her sect's disciples and the demons viewed each other.
If internal problems arise, how can this cooperation continue?
Yu Ze looked at Yun Fuzhao and said, "I will investigate his matter. That disciple is probably not simple either."
Yun Fuzhao nodded. "I will return to the sect to investigate that person's background."
"Ah."
Yu Ze naturally understood the urgency of the matter, but she was only there for a short while before leaving...
His gaze remained fixed on her, unwilling to leave her for even a moment, filled with an almost imperceptible tenderness. After a long while, he suddenly asked, "Yun Fuzhao, if your sect becomes wary of the Demon Realm because of this, or if you decide to never come to the Demon Realm again, what will you do?"
Yun Fuzhao thought about it carefully, "To be honest, the Demon Clan is my biggest support. If it weren't for you, we wouldn't have been able to defeat the Xuantian Sect so easily."
She blinked. "I hope you won't stop cooperating with me because of this. As for the rest, at least I'm still in charge of the Boundless Sword Sect. Their dissatisfaction is useless."
With a smile playing on his lips, Yu Ze clenched his right fist and pressed it against his chest, leaning slightly forward. He was serious and solemn, as if making a promise, "As long as I, Yu Ze, am alive, the Demon Realm will never be your enemy."
Yun Fuzhao felt a warmth in her heart; she hadn't expected Yu Ze to be such a loyal and righteous villain. She decided to award him the top prize of this year's "Ten People Who Moved Yun Fuzhao" award.
The other disciples had already arrived at the Boundless Sword Sect.
They recounted everything they had encountered in the Demon Realm to the other disciples.
The newly arrived disciples were terrified and swore one after another that they would never go to the Demon Realm again.
Those disciples who had stayed at the Boundless Sword Sect for a longer period were noticeably calmer.
"Everyone, don't forget that if it weren't for the help of the Demon Lord and the demons, the Boundless Sword Sect would have been destroyed long ago."
“That’s right. We can’t generalize. At least the demons I’ve encountered have all been gentle and friendly.”
The outer disciple muttered, "Back then, we hadn't even joined the sect yet, so there's no need for moral blackmail, right? Besides, the demons really went too far this time. They knew we were partners, yet they still attacked us so ruthlessly. Who knows if they've been holding a grudge for a long time..."
Seeing that the two groups were about to start arguing again, Dai Junde's expression hardened, and he said coldly, "If you say anything more that is not conducive to the unity of the sect, get out!"
Upon hearing this, all the disciples fell silent.
"Elder," Yun Fuzhao rushed back, "Are Mingzhu and the other disciples alright?"
“Mingzhu’s situation is not good,” Dai Junde said. “She is one of the most severely affected.”
Yun Fuzhao sighed and pulled him toward the council hall. "The most urgent matter is the hearts of our sect's disciples. If they no longer trust the demon race, how can we fight together against the enemy in the future?"
Dai Junde nodded. "What's your plan?"
"Get this sorted out. The last time, the Gokui incident was left unresolved; we absolutely cannot let that happen again this time."
Yun Fuzhao flicked Jiaoyu's dragon horns, "I want to find out who's behind this."
There's no third chance. Yun Fuzhao has fallen for her tricks twice already, and she won't give her a third chance.
"I need all the information about that disciple named Lü Siyuan."
Dai Junde nodded. "No problem."
As the two were talking, a strange phenomenon suddenly appeared on the horizon.
Yun Fuzhao looked out and saw that the sky was full of colorful lights, and something was surging and flowing in the clouds.
Upon closer inspection, she realized that those things were galloping, spirited horses, leaving behind beautiful trails in their wake.
Dai Junde murmured, "Someone has awakened an ancient bloodline..."
Yun Fuzhao's eyelids twitched. "Ancient bloodline?"
"Yes. It's the bloodline of those ancient true gods since the beginning of time." Dai Junde paused. "That direction seems to be the Xuantian Sect..."
Upon hearing this name, Yun Fuzhao felt extremely uneasy. Could it be that Wen Yan had awakened an ancient bloodline?
This is really bad; the male lead is about to embark on his extraordinary journey.
People say good things come in pairs, but why do bad things seem to double for her?
Yun Fuzhao sighed, "I'll go find Que Chi first and ask him if I can perform spirit summoning."
Although people die, their souls remain, and this is something the ghost race excels at.
However, as soon as she stepped out of the main hall, she bumped into Qi Huai, who had come looking for her. The two met face to face.
"You've already learned to throw yourself into my arms after just a few days?"
Qi Huai smiled, his fluffy tail brushing against her palm. He looked down at her and added to himself, "Not bad, I like it."
