Unparalleled Evildoer

Chapter 56 Tell the truth to Bei Ye

The breeze blew, the hair fluttered, the two looked at each other, the figure became thinner, and a trace of despair flashed in Qin Moyao's eyes, "It's good this way, we won't be lonely either."

Xiao Yuzhen came to Wuzhan, threw Qin Moyao to his side, and giggled, "The little lover you let go is back again. She can't escape from my grasp. But I wonder where she got the antidote."

Wuzhan didn't look at Qin Moyao beside him, and said calmly: "You gave it to me."

"How could I give her the antidote? Besides, I have plenty of antidotes."

"If it's not the Virgin Mary's antidote, then how can we cure her poison?"

Xiao Yuzhen was conceited. She knew that there was no one else in the world who could cure the poison of Huaqi Softening Powder except her. She thought with a cold brow, and it must be related to the bottle of medicine falling into the fire that night. She suspected that it was her disciple who cheated the antidote and gave it to Qin Moyao because she was not poisoned that night. But she changed her mind and thought that she had taken it at that time, and her disciples would not dare to do such an unmotivated behavior. Could it be that there was someone she knew among the disciples and was secretly helping her? Thinking of this, she asked, "Tell me quickly, which disciple gave her the antidote?"

Wuzhan said: "That is the matter of the Holy Mother Gate, you should check it yourself."

Xun Qingrou smiled and said, "I didn't expect such a gentle and handsome man to have such a hard temper. Sister, why don't you hand him over to me? I will make sure he can be as soft as possible."

Xiao Yuzhen squinted her eyes and said with contempt, "It's hard for this kid to survive, how can he stand your shameful behavior? If you do anything to him, don't blame me for turning my face against you. We can't be sisters anymore!"

Xun Qingrou smiled timidly and said, "Oh, it seems that my sister really likes this little boy. Then I dare not do that!"

After hearing what she said, Xiao Yuzhen's cold face turned slightly red, which then disappeared. She said to the four disciples, "Take them away!"

……

They came to a big river with relatively calm water. The Cangshan disciples had been waiting by the river for a long time. There was an open rocky plain on the inner side of the river with sparse weeds and no trees. It was the result of scouring when the river flooded.

The disciple was relieved to see Xiao Yuzhen had captured Qin Moyao again. He stepped forward to greet her. Xiao Yuzhen asked directly, "Who took my antidote last night? Come out and fight for me!"

The disciples didn't know why Xiao Yuzhen asked about this. At this time, the disciples who had taken the antidote came out in a panic. There were twelve of them in total. The other four had died yesterday. Xiao Yuzhen glanced at each disciple. No matter how he looked at them, they didn't look like the kind of people who would dare to cheat for the antidote. After a long while, he said in a deep voice, "Who of you didn't take the antidote that night and gave it to the little bitch?"

The twelve disciples knelt on the ground and said anxiously, "Disciples have eaten! Disciples have eaten!..."

Xiao Yuzhen said with a cold look: "If you can't confess, I will give you to Sister Xun!"

When the disciples heard this, they were immediately terrified and their faces turned pale. They all knew Xun Qingrou's evil deeds. If they fell into her hands, they would rather die directly. They cried and begged: "Axue can testify for the disciples that she took the medicine for them personally!" "Yes!" "Master, please check carefully!"...

Wuzhan stood aside and looked at the disciples kneeling on the ground. He thought of Ah Jiao by the pond. If he didn't speak up today, he would probably end up like Ah Jiao and it would be difficult for him to survive. These disciples were kind to her and took good care of her along the way. He couldn't bear to see them being wronged. Besides, it was over. It didn't matter whether they knew about it or not. Thinking of this, he said to Xiao Yuzhen, "Don't embarrass them. I didn't take the antidote. I gave it to her!"

When the disciple kneeling on the ground heard Wuzhan’s words, it was like he had found a life-saving straw in his desperate situation. He looked at Wuzhan with tears in his eyes.

Xiao Yuzhen giggled and said, "It seems that you are really a sentimental person. You don't have to help them get rid of their emotions. I personally gave you the antidote. If I hadn't saved you, how could you have woken up!"

Wuzhan said softly, "I was not poisoned. I held the antidote given by the Virgin Mary in my mouth and did not swallow it."

When Xiao Yuzhen heard Wuzhan say this, she immediately understood everything and said with an even colder expression, "Nonsense! You were already unconscious at the time and your breath was very weak after being poisoned. How could you have fooled me!"

Wuzhan already understood Xiao Yuzhen's intention. She didn't want these dozen or so disciples of hers anymore, and gave them to Xun Qingrou. There was no point in him explaining it. Although he didn't know Xun Qingrou's background or what they said, he could guess roughly from her appearance and her familiarity with Xiao Yuzhen. In order to exchange for Qin Moyao, Xiao Yuzhen even gave up her disciples, which showed how cold-blooded she was.

Seeing that Xiao Yuzhen didn't believe it was Wuzhan and still thought it was done by one of them, the dozen disciples looked around and said, "Whoever it is, please step forward on your own initiative, so that the sisters won't be implicated!"

Seeing that no one stepped forward, Xiao Yuzhen said to Xun Qingrou, whose eyes were still fixed on Wu Yu, "Leave them to my sister. You take them away!"

Upon hearing this, the disciples cried out, "Master, we are loyal to her, how dare we give her the antidote!" "Please believe us, don't chase us away!" "We are all wronged!" "If Master doesn't believe us, we can only die as a witness!"... Xun Qing said softly, "Didn't sister say that you can choose whatever you want? Why did you give it to twelve people so casually? And they seem very reluctant!"

Xiao Yuzhen giggled and said, "It would be best if you don't want it!" She immediately said to the disciples kneeling on the ground, "You all should get up. My sister doesn't want you yet. You are not to her taste!" After hearing this, the disciples thanked her one after another and felt like they were reborn.

Wuzhan breathed a sigh of relief and thought to himself, "It seems that I have misjudged her. I was overthinking and ended up telling the truth."

Xun Qingrou said in surprise: "When did my sister say she didn't want it anymore? I just..." Before she could finish her words, she understood why Xiao Yuzhen would be willing to give up so many disciples she had trained with great effort. She was seriously injured. If she hadn't said that at the time, it would have been hard to predict who would win or lose if they started fighting. And now that she had so many disciples here, she didn't need to take action. If these disciples attacked together, she would have no choice but to escape.

"When I said I would give them to my sister, I was just trying to scare them and teach them a lesson, princess!"

Xun Qingrou smiled at Wuzhan, "Sister, you have learned a lot today. We will meet again later. But I forgot to tell you, there are many people outside the Cliff of Love, and they seem to be looking for this beauty of yours!" After saying that, she jumped up on one foot, like a kingfisher, skimmed across the water, and disappeared at the end of the water.

The Cliff of Love is the only way for Xiao Yuzhen to return to Cangshan. After the Cliff of Love, there are Shiwan Mountains. There was once a love-struck couple who jumped off the cliff, hence the name. There is a trade road outside the mountain and a mountain village called Jiuxiang nearby. Cangshan is only a day's journey away from there.

After Xun Qingrou left, Xiao Yuzhen's eyes became solemn. She didn't know how many people were waiting outside. In the past, she would not have taken it seriously, but now she was seriously injured. If they joined forces, it would be troublesome. She was most familiar with the rules of the cultivation world. Once someone found an opportunity, no one would show mercy. However, she was rebellious by nature, and she had forced her way through any storm, otherwise she would not be in this situation today.

Wuzhan said calmly, "If the Holy Mother is in trouble, you can hand me over to them!"

Xiao Yuzhen snorted coldly and said, "You brat, there's no need to provoke me. I would rather kill you than hand you over!" Then she ordered her disciples, "Rest here tonight. We will go out tomorrow. I want to see who dares to snatch my people." She also sent four disciples back to Cangshan to summon the best men from the Baiyue Gang to meet them at the Cliff of Love. After explaining some things, she went to meditate and recover from her injuries.

The moon was like a silver hook, a line of floating clouds, the mountains disappeared, the shadows of the trees swayed, and the river sparkled. With a criminal record, Wuzhan's hands were tied behind his back, and he was tied back to back with Qin Moyao, surrounded by disciples. There was absolutely no possibility of escape.

Qin Moyao could feel the slight body temperature on Wuzhan's back, and a hint of warmth. Even if she fell into Xiao Yuzhen's hands again and was tortured for no reason, she didn't want to think about whether she could survive tomorrow. She just hoped that the sun would not come out tomorrow, and it would be like this forever.

Wuzhan took advantage of the disciples falling asleep and whispered, "Why did you fall into that woman's hands?"

Qin Moyao's mute point had been untied, and she whispered, "If I tell you that I have been worried about you and didn't notice her, would you believe it?" Her face immediately turned red, she lowered her head, her heart pounding. These were the most shameful words she had ever said in her life.

Wuzhan sighed and asked instead of answering: "Are you running away?" "You don't cherish the opportunity I created for you. Now you can only leave it to fate. I can't help you."

Qin Moyao said shyly: "I don't need your help. This is my fate. I am destined to die with you like this."

Wuzhe was silent for a long time, then asked, "Do you have any family?"

"Yes! They live at the foot of Mount Emei. My mother is not Leng Muxue at all. When I was ten years old, my master took me to the mountain to practice. They were all very kind to me."

"Since it's not her, you shouldn't be tortured by her for this. You weren't this confused when I first met you."

Qin Moyao knew what Wuzhan meant. It was meaningless to have feelings for him. But when she heard Wuzhan say that, she felt even more reluctant. She whispered, "Whether I am confused or sober, I can't escape now. If I run away, I will regret it in the future. But now that I am with you, I don't have to think about anything."

Wuzhan said sadly: "You are so lucky, you have a family and a master, you should cherish them. I am different from you. My parents and brother were killed by traitors, and my master was killed by Qingyang, leaving only me. But I can't practice and can't avenge them. I am a useless person who will not live long, and it is difficult for me to take a step forward."

Qin Moyao didn't expect Wuzhan's life experience and experience to be so pitiful. For a moment, she didn't know what words to use to comfort Wuzhan. She could only look at the crescent moon and feel heartbroken.

Wuzhan continued, "It's like I was cursed by God. I came into this world as a monster. Those who care about me have no good ending. I helped you escape only because you helped me before. Other than that, I have no other intentions!"

"Other than that, there is no other intention!" Qin Moyao whispered, and her heart suddenly turned cold. She had been waiting for such a sentence for the past few days. Although she knew that Wuzhan might not be sincere in saying this, it sounded particularly harsh. Now that things have come to this, it would be nice to say something nice, but when she thought about it carefully, Wuzhan had never revealed his true feelings to him. This was just her wishful thinking. Her heart felt like it was pierced by a needle, and the moonlight gradually became colder.
