Ich bin ein Gott in der Chatgruppe aller Reiche

Kapitel 133

Lian Junchu's eyes dimmed slightly. "Ruzheng, he murdered my eldest sister... You mean I shouldn't seek revenge? And instead leave this matter to your master to handle?"

"I think if this can be verified, Master won't be unable to distinguish right from wrong." Yue Ruzheng tried to make her tone firm.

Lian Junchu gave a wry smile and looked at her, saying, "What if she secretly releases Yu Hezhi?"

"No, I won't." Yue Ruzheng lowered her eyes and thought for a moment, then resolutely said, "If it really comes to that, I'd rather take action myself than have you commit a massacre in front of Master."

Chapter 82

When they arrived at Mount Da Shu, the sun was still hidden behind the clouds. The carriage stopped in front of Merlin. Yue Ruzheng stood by the roadside, gazing at Yinxi Xiaozhu not far away. From that direction came bursts of voices, which should be the disciples of the sect busy preparing for the sacrificial ceremony.

"Let's go." Lian Junchu walked to her side and looked ahead. Yue Ruzheng nodded slightly and walked with him toward Yinxi Xiaozhu.

Just as she approached the gate, a junior disciple on guard spotted Yue Ruzheng and exclaimed with delight, "Senior Sister Yue! I'll go and inform Master for you!" Without entering, he ran down the foot of Mount Da Shu.

Yue Ruzheng stepped forward, gesturing for him to stop, and asked, "Is Master not in the courtyard?"

"She went down the mountain to Merlin..." The young disciple kept looking at Lian Junchu as he spoke. Perhaps because he had never met him before, he was full of curiosity about him. However, because Yue Ruzheng was beside him, he did not ask any questions.

Yue Ruzheng said, "You don't need to go and inform them, I'll go myself..." She thought for a moment, then asked, "Is Uncle-Master Yu also there?"

The young disciple shook his head and said, "They haven't arrived yet. Master has already sent Qian'er to pick them up, so they should be here soon."

Yue Ruzheng had hoped to tell her master the truth before Yu Hezhi arrived, so upon hearing this, she immediately pulled Lian Junchu and hurried toward Merlin.

The path winds its way through the trees, with several plum trees planted on both sides. In early spring, the red plum blossoms bloom in profusion, their branches dotting the branches with delicate beauty.

Before Yue Ruzheng and Lian Junchu arrived at Merlin, she stopped and turned to Lian Junchu, saying, "Little Tang, can I go and talk to Master for a while?"

Lian Jun knew that if Jiang Shuying saw him, she might be furious and wouldn't listen to Ru Zheng's explanation, so she said, "That's fine, I'll wait for you here."

"If Master Yu arrives, you must remain calm!" Yue Ruzheng said, then quickly ran into Merlin.

Her figure gradually disappeared among the plum trees. Lian Junchu looked up into the distance. On that day, he had confronted Jiang Shuying and others here with his men. Now, although the surroundings were quiet, there were still heavy dark clouds in the depths of his heart that were difficult to dispel.

Yue Ruzheng walked along the forest path until she reached the vicinity of the Qin Terrace. In the distance, she saw Jiang Shuying holding incense and praying, her eyes hidden among the shadows of the flowers. Not daring to disturb her, she stopped at a distance. By then, Jiang Shuying had heard the noise, slowly stood up, and turned her face.

"Master..." Yue Ruzheng still felt a sense of awe when she saw Jiang Shuying again.

Upon seeing Yue Ruzheng, Jiang Shuying was initially surprised and delighted, but a hint of anger quickly flashed in her eyes. She flicked her sleeve and said, "Do you still consider me your master?"

Yue Ruzheng had anticipated this scene before coming, but being reprimanded by her master to her face still made her feel wronged. She stood under the plum tree with her head bowed and said, "Master, please forgive me. I was so anxious last time that I left Yinxi Cottage with Wei Heng..."

Jiang Shuying sighed, "In your eyes, am I an inflexible person? Even though I'm doing all this for your sake, you still prioritize others, disregard my words, and even refuse to say goodbye to me in person, just running away on your own!"

"Master, I know this is my fault. But I also understand that if I bid you farewell, I will definitely not be able to leave..." Yue Ruzheng took a deep breath, looked up at Jiang Shuying, and said solemnly, "If you want to punish me, I am willing to accept it, but before that, I want to tell you something... Do you know that the lost Junlei Heart Sutra was not actually taken by Lian Haichao!"

Jiang Shuying raised an eyebrow, took a few steps forward, and said, "What did you say?"

"That cultivation manual should be in my master's hands now. It was also his conspiracy with Mo Li that forced us to hand over the Divine Pearl of Youth three years ago!" Yue Ruzheng gritted her teeth and finally said the words that had troubled her for so long.

Jiang Shuying's eyes widened in disbelief, her brows furrowed, and she said unhappily, "Ruzheng, what nonsense are you spouting?!"

Yue Ruzheng said urgently, "Master, I couldn't believe it at first, but it's all true! Su Muchen from Bliss Valley told me himself..."

"Su Muchen?" Jiang Shuying sneered, her face full of disdain. "You actually believe him? Ruzheng, I think you're completely bewitched!" She glanced at Yue Ruzheng a few times, and seeing that she had returned alone, she couldn't help but feel a little surprised. "Weren't you going to find Lian Junchu? Did you run into Su Muchen on the way?"

"I..." Yue Ruzheng's heart skipped a beat when she heard Lian Junchu mentioned, and her gaze involuntarily darkened. She whispered, "Master, I found Xiao Tang... This time, he came back with me too."

Jiang Shuying had originally thought that Lian Junchu had given up and would no longer entangle with Ruzheng, but now, upon hearing this, her already unsettled heart was filled with even more anger.

"Ruzheng! I truly don't understand, why did you turn out like this?! Don't you want to live a peaceful life in Yinxi Xiaozhu, instead of throwing your whole life into this mess, only to end up with both of you losing?!"

Yue Ruzheng stared blankly at her master, not quite understanding what "mutual destruction" meant. Jiang Shuying suddenly recalled what Lin Bizhi had said that day. For the past few days, she had refused to believe that Ruzheng might actually come from Seven Star Island, but now she couldn't help but suppress her resentment. She walked up to Yue Ruzheng and said, word by word, "Ruzheng, do you know…"

Jiang Shuying was about to tell Yue Ruzheng about Yingluo's background when she suddenly heard light footsteps not far away, followed by an exclamation: "Ruzheng? I didn't expect you to come back!"

Upon hearing the voice, Yue Ruzheng stiffened and slowly turned around, only to see Yu Hezhi, dressed in plain clothes, approaching slowly, his robes fluttering. He had come from the path Yue Ruzheng had just walked along, and logically he should have encountered Lian Junchu, but his clothes were neat and his appearance was composed, showing no signs of anything amiss.

Yu Hezhi approached her step by step with a smile. Yue Ruzheng's heart was pounding, but she couldn't confront him on the spot. Involuntarily, she moved closer to Jiang Shuying.

Jiang Shuying stopped what she was about to say, glanced at Yue Ruzheng with her bright phoenix eyes, then looked at Yu Hezhi, her expression still calm. "Senior brother, the disciples should be almost ready with the offerings for the sacrifice. We'll return to Xiaozhu shortly."

Yu Hezhi nodded. "Alright, after paying respects to our grandmaster, I must also set off for my return. I've rested enough these past few days... Ruzheng, I heard you secretly ran away a few days ago. Did you apologize to your master?"

Yue Ruzheng pursed her lips tightly and remained silent. Jiang Shuying tugged at her sleeve and scolded in a low voice, "Don't you dare show any more disrespect to your elders!"

Yue Ruzheng lowered her head, suppressing her anger. Yu Hezhi frowned and said, "Could it be that you scolded her, Junior Sister, that's why she's so silent?"

Jiang Shuying hesitated for a moment before saying, "Senior brother, let's go back to Yinxi Xiaozhu first, and we can talk about other things later."

Yu Hezhi nodded in agreement, and Jiang Shuying put her hand on Yue Ruzheng's waist, urging her to walk back. Yue Ruzheng was extremely anxious because she could not see Lian Junchu. Just then, a whistling sound suddenly came, and a crossbow bolt shot out from outside the forest, carrying a biting cold wind and heading straight for Yu Hezhi, who was walking in the lead.

Yu Hezhi's expression changed, and he immediately swung his palm to exert his strength. His long sleeves suddenly surged, creating several whirlwinds that sent the crossbow bolts that had been closing in on him flying away.

"Who goes there?!" Jiang Shuying stepped forward and shouted sharply in the direction from which the crossbow bolts were fired.

"Yu Hezhi, you fickle scoundrel!" A dark shadow moved outside the woods, and the voice was hoarse and deep, sounding somewhat familiar to Jiang Shuying.

Yue Ruzheng, standing to the side, was stunned for a moment, then blurted out, "Su Mucheng?!"

A figure flashed into view, and Su Muchen leaped onto the plum tree opposite. Jiang Shuying glared at him and said angrily, "The Valley of Bliss has already scattered like birds and beasts. What are you trying to do here?!"

Su Muchen stared at Yu Hezhi and smiled coldly: "I still need to find an acquaintance to have a good talk with!" With that, he raised his hands, and two cold lights flew out from under his palms.

Yu Hezhi rolled up his sleeves and drew his longsword from behind his waist. With a seemingly casual flick, he struck the two hidden weapons. His sword trembled, and he leaped towards Su Muchen's direction. Unexpectedly, the hidden weapons, which had already been knocked down, suddenly hissed in mid-air. Yu Hezhi frowned and hurriedly held his breath and covered his nose. But the hidden weapons had already exploded, scattering fragments of all sizes in all directions. Su Muchen, with his curved blade in hand, created a whirlwind, and all the fragments flew towards Yu Hezhi's face.

Yu Hezhi shouted, shielding his face with his robe sleeve. His longsword trembled violently, radiating countless silver rays, like a giant net gathering all the fragments within. At this moment, Jiang Shuying also flew over, her slender hand swiftly striking Su Mucheng's vital points.
