Volume 1 The Wind Rises in Lingzhou Chapter 113 Results
Lotus Sect.
Zhou Xian and the others, who had returned to the sect about seven days in advance, did not say anything during this time, just quietly waited for the final end of this spring hunt, but as the time got closer to the end, he, who already knew some of the insiders, also began to fidget.
Although he had already known that Bai Bing was from the Bai family in the same city, he was not sure whether she could kill Xu Yan in the end. In addition to Zhou Xian, Chen Qinghe and the others also kept silent about what happened in the spring hunt according to Han Yu's previous instructions to them, but through the resentful gaze when they looked at Zhou Xian in the past few days, anyone who has a heart is enough to figure out some meaning inadvertently.
Thankfully, Chen Qingshan had already survived the previous crisis, but due to the loss of his sword-wielding right arm, his future cultivation path would undoubtedly become very difficult, unless he could continue to cultivate the left-handed sword through a lot of hardships.
Compared with Zhou Xian, Chen Qinghe and others, among the disciples who also participated, only Wu Hao seemed to be relatively relaxed, but it was obvious that he also attached great importance to the results of this spring hunt, after all, this would involve whether their Chenyang Sect finally received the rich remuneration that was originally discussed, or whether it was just a bamboo basket and a blank drain, and the lives of more than 20 disciples were lost in vain.
Today is the twenty-ninth day since the start of the spring hunt, that is, the penultimate day from the real end of this spring hunt.
In the afternoon, the sun was shining, and only a slight breeze was blowing through the air, and since it was now the middle of midsummer, even the weather in the Lotus Sect, which was relatively high, was already extremely hot. However, as cultivators, especially those who have reached the level of the heads of the major sects, the scorching heat is not harmful to them, besides, they are sitting here, almost all their thoughts are focused on the Guiren who will appear on the descending path next, and they don't care whether the weather is hot or not.
Although in the past few days, Zhou Xian, Chen Qinghe and others, who have returned ahead of schedule, have not publicly talked about anything in the spring hunt, but in private, the people who should know those processes undoubtedly already know it clearly, but before the final outcome can be confirmed, they will not come out for public negotiations.
In several tents placed in the center of the Lotus Sect's Lianwu Square, the heads of the major sects had different faces.
Chenyang Sect Master Wu Shixing still looked like a cold-eyed bystander, but in his eyes, some uncertain and complicated colors flashed from time to time. And Ye Jiawen, who was sitting in another tent on the same side of him, looked a little dignified on his ordinary face, because on the surface, this spring hunt had nothing to do with his Yunlan Sect, the reason was that he had already learned from Zhou Xian's mouth that the twenty inner disciples brought by their Yunlan Sect this time had already died, even if it was Zhou Yu, the second young master from the Zhou family, he had not escaped the fate of death.
However, he still has to wait, the reason is not only for Zhou Xian, who survived by luck, but also for a miracle, after all, Zhou Xian in this spring hunt, he and Wu Hao together also harvested three third-level spirit beast inner pills (two of which were obtained on the way to escape after being defeated by Xu Yan), as long as the disciple of the Lotus Sect named Xu Yan could not come back alive, then they could still rely on these three inner pills to defeat the Lotus Sect.
If it is said that in the tent at this moment, who has the most ugly face, there is no doubt that it is Bai Haijing of the White Crane Sword Village, and in addition to her, it is the daughter Bai Yulin who is following her, because among the six disciples who came back before, none of them are from their White Crane Sword Village, so even today, they still have no idea about the development trend of this spring hunt.
In the past few days, Bai Haijing has not gone to Ye Jiawen and Wu Shixing in private to ask about the results, but the answer she finally got was the various reasons for prevarication given to her by their coincidence, which couldn't help but make her feel very unhappy in her heart, after all, they were allies in the same position before, but now, they gave her a feeling of kicking her away from her original camp, intentionally or unintentionally.
However, how could Bai Haijing know that in fact, the Yunlan Sect and the Chenyang Sect had long been colluding in private to unite against their White Crane Sword Village and the Lotus Sect, and even the disciples of the Chenyang Sect headed by Wu Hao were the first to attack their disciples of the White Crane Sword Village.
Among all the leaders present, only Lotus Sect Master Zhao Bailian always maintained a calm face, because he had already learned from Han Yu that in this spring hunt, there were only two disciples left who survived and never returned, and it was that Bai Bing and Xu Yan. It's just that what the latter didn't know was that after learning the news, Zhao Bailian didn't feel the slightest joy at all, but in her heart, she had a strong melancholy that no one else could understand.
In the past few days, Zhao Bailian would have doubts about himself in the dead of night, he wondered whether he was looking forward to Bai Bing's coming back alive, or looking forward to his own disciple coming back alive?
However, when the result never came, he could not find the answer to this question after all.
However, doubts are doubts, in Zhao Bailian's heart, he is still more inclined to the sect, because when he took the initiative to choose to sit in this position, he knew what his fate would be for the rest of his life, so he planned like this for more than ten years, and he could only get such a great opportunity for a counterattack.
The capital is that since ancient times, loyalty and righteousness have been in a dilemma, even if they are too old, Zhao Bailian still feels a trace of pain that is difficult to let go at this moment, and this kind of pain, he can only show it in his heart, but he can't show it on that elegant face.
Time passed slowly, and the scorching sun inadvertently approached the top of the West Mountain from above everyone's heads, leaving only a sunset afterglow full of golden light and a little warmth, but at this moment, it made whether it was the mountains and rivers, the pavilions, or the 'mountain people' with complex thoughts, it seemed to have a rare sense of holiness.
In the end, it was Wu Shixing, who had been silent for almost a whole day, smiled extremely reluctantly, and took the lead in getting up and speaking: "It seems that we have been waiting for another day in vain, but it seems that it is the first time that the answer can be revealed until the last day of the spring hunt." ”
When the host Zhao Bailian heard this, he didn't care about the sarcasm in his words, but just stood up and said in a calm tone: "Youlao sect masters are waiting hard again, since it is getting late, then go back to rest as usual, and we will meet again tomorrow." ”
However, before Zhao Bailian's words fell, in the sky full of golden light, there was a very dazzling purple rainbow, from far to near, in the blink of an eye.
In the end, a stunning woman wearing a lilac Luo skirt landed steadily on the Lotus Sect's martial arts practice square from the flying sword, but when everyone present recognized her identity, the audience was silent, except for Bai Haijing and Bai Yulin, who had gloomy faces, Huo Ran stood up from his seat.
She ...... She's Senior Brother Bai?"
"What nonsense, didn't you see that she was a daughter?"
"Oh my God, Senior Brother Bai turned out to be a woman, and I have been a disciple of the Qiuzi Sect with her for so many years, so I don't know the secret at all. ”
"This ...... This Senior Brother Bai, no, this Senior Sister Bai is too stunning, no wonder I thought she looked like a woman before, after all, how can a man in the world be so delicate and lovely? It turns out that she is a woman, according to this view, it makes sense. ”
"You can pull it down, you said that you knew that Senior Sister Bai was a woman before. ”
......
For a while, among the disciples of the four sects of the Lotus Sect, they were undoubtedly caught in a battle of opinions, and the reason was very simple, that is, none of them expected that Bai Bing would finally appear in front of everyone's eyes with such an appearance.
However, compared to these disciples who were just caught up in Bai Bing's daughter, Chen Qinghe and Gu Xueqing, who were also participating disciples, and even Zhou Xian, Wu Hao and others, were even more surprised that she could step on a sword and fly a sword.
You must know that there is only one explanation for wanting to reach this level, and that is that she has already stepped into the six-story cultivation.
"I didn't expect Bai Shi to ...... Senior Sister Bai's cultivation has reached this level. Gu Xueqing, who was sitting with Chen Qinghe, hesitated for a long time, but only held back such a sentence.
Chen Qinghe's very upright face showed a very rare trace of solemnity, he raised his eyebrows, and then said, "Since Senior Sister Bai has returned, what about the others of Little Senior Brother?"
......
After the audience was silent, the square fell into a noisy discussion again, but Bai Bing ignored these fingers, she put away her real name flying sword, and walked straight to the middle of the five tents, and then suddenly knelt on her knees to Zhao Bailian, who was sitting on it, and said in a deep voice: "Disciple to meet the sect master." ”
Zhao Bailian saw her kowtow to herself, but her face was expressionless, and even a trace of coldness flashed in her eyes.
From the moment he saw her appear in front of him as a woman, he had roughly guessed the final trend of this spring hunt, and after a moment of silence, he said, "It's good to come back alive." ”
Among the people present, few people could understand the meaning of his words, but only he and Bai Bing could truly understand the meaning of this sentence.
Seeing that the other party gave her such an answer, Bai Bing couldn't help but sigh in her heart, but when she stood up, she said without being shocked: "You don't have to wait any longer, I am the last survivor in this spring hunt." ”
Hearing this sentence, which was equivalent to the dust settled, there was an exclamation in the entire square, except for Zhao Bailian, who was next to the main seat, but had already stood up, her eyes became even colder.
Without waiting for everyone to speak, Chen Qinghe asked directly: "Isn't the little junior brother with Master Bai...... Did Senior Sister Bai go looking for Baiguo together, and why didn't he come back with Senior Sister Bai?"
After Bai Bing heard Chen Qinghe's words, she didn't choose to hide it, she replied in an indifferent tone: "Xu Yan, he is dead. ”
Hearing this answer, Chen Qinghe, who recalled Xu Yan's profound cultivation, was in disbelief, and immediately asked: "How is this possible, you and I have seen the strength of the little junior brother, and he is even slightly better than Wu Hao, how can he die easily?"
Wu Hao, who heard this statement on the side, his face immediately sank, this was undoubtedly his most unbearable experience in the past thirty years, but in this situation at this moment, it was not his turn to interject, so he just snorted coldly and waited for Bai Bing's next words.
Bai Bing heard Chen Qinghe's questioning, took a deep breath, and said in a surprising voice again: "Because I killed him with my own hands." ”
After a word, there was silence.
This answer was almost unexpected by everyone, but there were also people who were secretly happy with this answer, including Zhou Xian.
Seeing that his sect master never spoke, after Chen Qinghe came back to his senses, even though he tried very hard to restrain the anger in his chest, he still couldn't hide the coldness in his tone, and asked, "You, why did you want to kill the little junior brother?"
Hearing that the other party quietly replaced the original Senior Sister Bai with 'you', Bai Bing could clearly feel how angry the other party was now, however, she was too lazy to answer this question, because she knew that maybe Chen Qinghe and the others couldn't understand why she appeared as a woman, but the major sects present must have known it to themselves.
Ye Jiawen, who had a very gloomy face, finally stood up from his seat at this moment, but he didn't look at Bai Bing, but directly said to Bai Haijing: "I didn't expect that in the end, Bai Zhuang's main skills were superior, and I admired them." ”
When Bai Haijing heard him say this, her face was cold and abnormal, but since the matter had reached this point where the coffin could be closed, she no longer pretended to be mysterious, and immediately said to the people present: "Since the disciples who should come back have already returned, let them take out the results of the spring hunt to determine the victory." ”
Hearing Bai Haijing speak, Bai Bing directly took out the inner pills of all the spirit beasts from the storage bag, there were six in total, lined up, five of them were the inner pills of third-level spirit beasts, and one was the inner pill of fourth-level spirit beasts.
Seeing that it was finally the time for the showdown at this time, Zhou Xian, who had already sat on pins and needles, did not hesitate, and immediately took out three Neidan from the storage bag and put them aside, but he couldn't help but be happy in his heart, he didn't expect that at the last moment, he really waited for the opportunity to win in this spring hunt.
Seeing that Bai Bing and Zhou Xian took out the results of this spring hunt from the storage bag one after another, everyone undoubtedly looked at Wu Hao, Chen Qinghe and the others again.
However, Wu Hao spread his hands indifferently and replied bluntly: "It's unfortunate that I didn't get anything." ”
For his frank answer, everyone present was unimpressed, after all, Chenyang Sect's position in the spring hunt of the hundred mountains was very ambiguous and special, even if they did not come to participate in the spring hunt, it was actually understandable, therefore, in the eyes of some outsiders, they were simply full of food and had nothing to do.
So, after seeing that everyone was looking at him, Chen Qinghe, who was in the square, finally walked up with a heart full of resentment, and then took out two third-level inner pills from his storage bag, which were the fruits he had harvested when he traveled with Bai Bing before.
But if you really want to talk about it, one of them belongs to the Nedan of the wildebeest, but in fact, Bai Bing was in a hurry at the time and asked him to take it in his pocket.
Bai Bing didn't care when he saw that he took out the Nedan of the wildebeest, after all, in her opinion, it didn't matter if this Nedan was not returned to herself.
However, at this moment, Chen Qinghe, who finally realized that Bai Bing was a disciple of the White Crane Sword Village, directly handed the Nedan of the wildebeest to her, and said to her coldly: "I didn't expect that you were also a traitor planted in my Lotus Sect by another sect, and it really made us so bitter, but even so, you should never have killed the little junior brother, but he saved your life with his own hands." The ancients said that the grace of a drop of water should be reciprocated by a spring, how can you do such an ungrateful thing?"
When Bai Bing saw the other party handing over the Nedan of the wildebeest, her face was expressionless, but when she heard Chen Qinghe's words, she couldn't help but flash a trace of pain in her beautiful eyes.
In fact, as far as she was concerned, if there was another choice, she would never want to do so, because after she came to her senses, she didn't feel a trace of guilt about it? Even in addition to guilt, she also found that her heart was also aching faintly. However, what is all this in the face of the fact that she has completely lost her childhood and has to shoulder such a heavy burden and responsibility?
Bai Bing opened her mouth, a little ready to speak, but in the end, she still didn't make any rebuttal, because when she chose to tell the truth about this matter, she had already decided to face all this, and only in this way could she feel better.
Seeing that Bai Bing was speechless and acquiesced in all this, Chen Qinghe was not the kind of person who liked to use words too much, so he left another sentence, "That wildebeest died in your hands, and this inner pill will be returned to you since then, and from now on, my Lotus Sect will have nothing to do with you", and then stopped talking.
After hearing this, a crystal teardrop finally couldn't help but roll down from Bai Bing's eyes.
However, Bai Haijing, who was on the side, saw this scene, and immediately said in a cold voice: "If this virtuous nephew has no other achievements, shouldn't Sect Master Zhao pronounce the final result of this spring hunt? I have been waiting here for a month, but I am not here to listen to the complaints of the disciples of your sect. ”
"Of course it doesn't stop there. ”
Without waiting for Zhao Bailian to speak, Chen Qinghe, who had long been unable to care about the elders at this moment, took out another storage bag from his waist, and then took out three third-level spirit beast inner pills and a fourth-level inner pill from it, and put them on the table.
Seeing that Chen Qinghe suddenly took out so many Inner Pills, a trace of surprise immediately flashed in Bai Bing's red eyes.
"Why, this virtuous nephew shouldn't think that you can compare with Bing'er if you take out these Inner Dans, don't forget, our White Crane Sword Village has six third-level Inner Dans and one fourth-level Inner Dan, and you are two less than us. Bai Haijing saw that the other party took out these, and immediately let out a sneer.
When Chen Qinghe heard this, he no longer hesitated, and took out the last two golden hairpin stone orchids from the storage bag Xu Yan had given him before.
