Chapter 142: Fatal Loophole

Qin Xiyao turned out to be the little girl who brought her to the Immortal Peak at the beginning?

Kanto looked at Duan Ganmu in disbelief, and his mind came to mind that snowy night ten years ago.

That snow, it was big, it was big.

In his memory, there had never been such a heavy snowfall, such a bitter cold weather.

"Why do you want to live here?" he was only eight years old at the time, and his voice was immature, but he always liked to pretend to be a little adult.

The weather was so cold that his hands and feet were frostbitten, and he had no choice but to hide in a broken cave, where he happened to meet the timid and dirty little girl.

"My parents are dead, and none of my relatives are alive in this world. This is my home. The little girl's eyes widened, looked at him, and said seriously.

Her face was dirty, but she had big eyes. These eyes look extremely delicate, with smart eyeballs, neat eyelashes, and no blemishes. I'm afraid that women all over the world, as long as they have such a pair of perfect eyes, they are enough to be proud of their lives.

It's hard to imagine that such a pair of beautiful eyes would grow on a dirty little beggar.

"You take the broken cave as your home? Instead of being cold and starving here, you might as well come with me!" said Kanto Adult.

"Where are you going?" the little girl asked, puzzled.

"Go to the Immortal Peak and be a god. "Kanto is a matter of course.

In fact, at that time, he was the kind of immortal who could fly to the sky and the earth and be omnipotent. It is said that there are countless such immortals on the Peak of the Immortals.

"What if people don't want us?" the little girl was visibly lacking in confidence.

"With me, I am gifted and intelligent, and I am a genius who has been rare for thousands of years. When the time comes, I will be in front of the gods. Say a few kind words for you, no matter how bad your qualifications are. For my sake, the gods will take you as well. Kanto said unashamedly.

"Ahh Really, big brother, you're so nice. The little girl believed it and looked at Kanto with a look of adoration.

......

The goose feather snow fell more quickly and densely.

In the vast sea of snow, the little boy held the little girl's hand and walked forward with difficulty. The snow was already thick, and when you stepped on it, you didn't reach your knees. The bitter cold wind almost blew through the thin clothes of the two people. Nearly scraped them away. But the hands of the two of them were so tight.

It seems that these two little hands together are enough to fight the whole winter.

"How far is the Immortal Cave Mansion?" the little girl asked with a red face.

"It's not far away, it's right in front of you. The boy said.

"But why can't I see it?" the little girl's big eyes looked ahead, and all she saw was a vast snowy scene.

"Trust me. The boy said.

"Oh. The little girl nodded, fell silent, and moved on.

......

"Am I dying?" asked the little girl weakly.

"I said I would take you to be a fairy, a manly man, and I will do what I say. The boy lifted the little woman on his back. Every step you take leaves behind a deep pit of snow.

"I'm the one who dragged you down. The little girl said apologetically.

"We live together and die together. The boy replied.

_____________________________________________________

Life is always unpredictable and full of uncertainties. Who would have thought. A little beggar back then was able to become the first of the top ten beauties of the One Sword Lingxiao Sect, and he was also a generation of Tianjiao.

Kanto remembered. In the Xuanling Cave, Qin Xiyao looked at her eyes. It's filled with a kind of trust, no. It's dependency. Although she was already high at that time, no matter her status was far beyond her ability. But she still simply retains that dependence, just like she did in that snowy weather.

Kanto has mixed feelings. If it weren't for Duan Ganmu's rehash of the past, he would almost not remember the little girl back then.

But she never forgot it.

"If you're worried about Xi Yao's safety, you don't have to. Because I had already tested Wu Botai's tone in advance, even if I was gone, Xi Yao's position in the entire One Sword Lingxiao Sect was still as stable as Mount Tai. Duan Ganmu interrupted Kanto's thoughts.

"No way. If Wu Botai wants to kill you, there is no reason to let your descendants go. Kanto immediately denied.

"The reason why you think this way is because you don't know Wu Botai as a person. Duan Ganmu's eyes were deep and penetrating.

"Oh, what kind of person is he?" Kanto asked suspiciously.

"In fact, he, like me, is a crazy obsession with power and status. He killed me because of power and status, and he left Qin Xiyao for power and status. Duan Ganmu said.

"Now that he has become the new Great Elder of the One Sword Ling Xiao Sect, what power and status do he need?"

"Higher power and status!" Duan Ganmu sighed lightly, as if he was talking about Wu Botai and as if he was talking about himself, "People's desires are always endless. Once you sit in this position, you will never be in a corner. That Wu Botai is also an ambitious person, and he will not be willing to succumb to the Golden Sword Gate. Therefore, he had to make the One Sword Lingxiao Sect continue to grow bigger and stronger. And Qin Xiyao, whether it is talent or potential, is unmatched by the disciples of the whole sect, so he will also become the target of Wu Botai's great efforts. ”

"You may be right. But if Qin Xiyao doesn't cooperate with him, sooner or later he will become a thorn in his side. After all, there is a limit to a person's patience, let alone a character like Wu Botai?" Kanto sneered.

"She's a smart child, how can she not recognize the form?" Duan Ganmu didn't think it was a problem.

"But she's also a woman. Kanto's tone became cold.

Duan Ganmu's whole body suddenly tightened, and an icy cold current rose from behind him, causing his whole person to be in a state of stiffness.

Because he found that his logic, although very thorough, still ignored a key issue.

Qin Xiyao is a woman.

As long as it's a woman, it's emotional.

Even if it's a sane woman. Once there is a conflict with the relationship, when faced with a choice, he will not hesitate to choose the latter.

He is Qin Xiyao's master. And she has been trained by heart for eight years. This feeling is irreplaceable by others. Although they were also because of the Kanto incident. There were some arguments, but those were over.

Once Qin Xiyao learned that it was Wu Botai who calculated to kill his master, I am afraid that even if he didn't turn his face with him on the spot, he would never have any loyalty to him. Even in the face of Wu Botai's powerful threat, she may not compromise.

And if things come to this point, wouldn't Qin Xiyao be in danger?

Duan Ganmu felt great regret in his heart.

It must be known that in the entire One Sword Ling Xiao Sect, every elder controls the inheritance of one immortal art. And Duan Ganmu's vein is completely pinned on Qin Xiyao. If something happens to her, it means that the inheritance of this vein is severed.

For any monk, it is better to die than to have such a thing happen in front of his eyes. Because the inheritance of Taoism is often the lifelong pursuit of some people. Even if they can't reach the Heavenly Dao because of their limited qualifications, they hope that their descendants can follow this path and go all the way. Go to the top.

This is a kind of spiritual sustenance, and it is also the core interest of immortal cultivators.

What a fatal vulnerability!

"I finally know now why you were toyed with by Wu Botai and ended up in such a field. For though thou art equally good at calculation. But he has never seen the world as deeply and thoroughly. So, it's you who loses in the end. And not him. Kanto slowly got up, his eyes shining with wisdom.

"Maybe you're right. But that's it. Even if you repent of breaking your intestines, it's useless. "Duan Gan's wood is like dead ashes.

"Who's to say it's useless, as long as there's even a glimmer of hope. I will do my best to remedy it. Kanto smiled coldly.

"What, you have a way, but we are prisoners now......" Duan Ganmu couldn't believe it.

Kanto unceremoniously interrupted him and waved his sleeves, "That's enough! For the sake of you being Master Qin Xiyao, I won't kill you. But whether you can continue to live in this ancient demon city depends on your own ability. Where is the southern heaven of Hebei?"

"The old man is here, what does the Marquis of Kanto command?" Ji Nantian was already waiting outside the main hall, and when he heard Kanto's words, he immediately pushed the door in, bowed and replied.

"You prepare a fine house in the Ancient Demon City, settle this person, and don't worry about other things. Kanto said without thinking.

"This is a trivial matter, and it doesn't bother the Kanto Hou. Ji Nantian hurriedly said attentively.

"Hmm. You've done a great job this time. So what I promised you last time, I won't break my promise. In the entire Ancient Demon City, who are the people who can threaten your status? After I dispose of these people, you will be the new city lord of the Ancient Demon City. "Although Kanto is concerned about Qin Xiyao's safety, since so many days have passed, he is not in a hurry at this time. After arranging the affairs of the Ancient Demon City, it is not too late to leave.

"Donghou personally took action, so he was naturally very relieved. You can rest assured that as long as you solve these troubles, I will definitely look forward to the future of the Kanto Houma. Ji Nantian was overjoyed, and hurriedly patted his chest and reassured.

In his opinion, the reason why Kanto wants to support him to take the position is just to be a person who manipulates him behind the scenes. And he Ji Nantian is just a puppet he chose.

Ji Nantian has been crawling and rolling in the immortal cultivation world for hundreds of years, and he still doesn't know the truth. If he is an obedient puppet, he will naturally be safe, but if he is rebellious, what awaits him will be a ruthless butcher's knife.

I have to say that he thought crookedly this time. It's just an ancient demon city, Kanto didn't pay attention to it, and the reason why he did it was just because he didn't want to break his word and fatten himself, so as to affect the Dao heart.

"Okay, you don't need to put any loyalty in front of me, I only have three days to settle this situation for you. After three days, I will not be responsible for any unexpected circumstances. Kanto said irresponsibly.

"Three days, that's enough. Ji Nantian thought that Kanto was testing his ability, and immediately replied confidently. (To be continued......)
