Chapter 422: Fuyu’s Discovery, Baili Tusu’s Conspiracy Revealed!
The poisonous insects in the jar were hungry and thirsty.
Though they had devoured each other, they were far hungrier when faced with humans who couldn’t struggle.
Baili Tusu watched the disciple writhe in pain and finally faint, a charming smile spreading across his face. Only this could calm his heart.
Enjoy a moment of comfort.
"Hate me, hate me to your heart’s content... just as I hated others... Only in this way will Fen Ji’s power grow stronger..."
Baili Tusu gazed at the other party’s contorted face, smiling more and more brilliantly.
Because the hungry Fen Ji Sword had begun to feast again.
Strength grew stronger still.
Ah... what a wonderful feeling.
Baili Tusu did not go out that night.
Instead, he stayed in the secret room, savoring the delicious meal before him.
Whenever the other party fainted from pain, he would pry open their mouth and pour in a special medicine.
This was poison.
But it was also an elixir.
While having a powerful healing effect, it also made the poisonous insects more powerful.
The swallowed skin constantly itched.
Poisonous insects lived in the intestines.
The disciple hung his head in a daze—there was no way to die. He could only resent in his heart: why did True Person Ziyin bring this demon back?
The next day.
The sky brightened.
Baili Tusu used magic to put all the poisonous insects to sleep. He straightened his clothes and began practicing swordsmanship as always.
It had to be said—he did possess a certain feminine temperament.
And he was very handsome.
Coupled with Fen Ji’s foil—
Although he looked colder now—
He was truly handsome.
A group of female disciples admired Baili Tusu’s appearance greatly.
On the other hand, whenever Fu Hua saw Baili Tusu, she instinctively dodged and didn’t dare even show her head.
"Little Junior Brother is truly getting more and more handsome. When True Person Ziyin was here before, he always had a gloomy face. But now he even smiles at us!"
"Yeah, yeah... I heard many seniors have gotten close to him lately, and even Senior Brother Ling Yue praised Baili Tusu for making great progress."
"Seems he was too standoffish before, but now that he’s warmed up, he’ll accept everyone gradually. I thought that, as fellow brothers, Ling Yue bullied him cruelly."
...
Listening to everyone’s praise—
Baili Tusu showed disdain, held the sword, and danced swiftly until the end of a set of sword techniques.
Then he stopped, turned, and left.
Fu Hua was a calm and generous person with a keen mind.
She had different views on recent events—even an inexplicable fear.
Every time she saw Baili Tusu, she felt the other party was as terrible as a monster.
For example, she had once discussed with Ling Yue, her senior brother, that she wanted to give Baili Tusu a hard lesson.
Now not only did he not find her to play with every day—
Instead, he stayed on that mountain and didn’t come down.
Even when she went to the other party for answers, the latter would actually say that the master wasn’t there, and that he would naturally appear more composed—otherwise it would be unconvincing.
This was something Senior Brother Ling Yue would say?
He loved to play very much.
Moreover, based on her own understanding of him—even if Baili Tusu had been harshly disciplined, he would have shown some attitude in public.
As a result, the two now praised each other.
This was wrong... very wrong.
Everyone was strange.
Fu Hua returned to her residence with the female disciples and began to contemplate what had happened over the past two months.
Calling it "strange" was somewhat inaccurate.
Where did the awkwardness come from?
Yes.
Whenever she met certain people, she felt awkward subconsciously. Except for Senior Brother Ling Yue, everyone else seemed to have one thing in common.
Fu Hua knew many people.
When she thought about a certain question, a flash of lightning shot across her heart.
It was Baili Tusu!
Those who felt strange were all people who had gone out with him to perform tasks.
Whether it was capturing monsters or investigating problems somewhere—
It was all arranged by Senior Brother Ling Yue, and Baili Tusu went along. She had once asked why he had to go every time.
Was he being bullied?
At the time, Senior Brother Ling Yue’s answer was that it would exercise Baili Tusu’s social skills.
Later, the effect was indeed good.
Fu Hua naturally forgot about it.
"Could it be that..."
The girl’s face instantly went pale. She recalled the missing disciple—it wasn’t long ago, from the Baili Tusu school sect at that time.
The person who had cursed the other’s parents.
Only he had disappeared.
If Baili Tusu really had a problem—
Then this person became the key piece of evidence.
Thinking of this, Fu Hua’s breathing quickened. She wanted to find someone for help, but was afraid of falling into Baili Tusu’s trap.
The girl’s heart was extremely worried.
Her final decision was to report to the sect head Han Su Zhenren tomorrow.
Otherwise, the martial arts sect was in danger!
Because of True Person Ziyin’s power, Tianyong City would grow. For this reason, True Person Hansu had given up most of his rights.
He belonged to an existence that didn’t concern himself with matters inside the sect.
Beyond occasionally teaching disciples, he meditated in the blessed land within the gate.
To see him, one had to report first.
It was already too late today to arrange a meeting.
Feeling aggrieved, Fu Hua turned and headed outside the sect to relax.
"I wonder when True Person Ziyin will come back... or if not, let Sister Hongyu come back..."
0.....
The girl in a purple dress strolled through the bamboo forest.
Her entire spirit seemed somewhat decadent.
She walked quickly and descended the mountain in less than half an hour.
And Wu Xian, who had just escaped from the Eternal God Cult, appeared here.
The two eyes met quickly.
When Fu Hua saw the other party’s clothing wasn’t local, she immediately became vigilant.
Her long sword left its sheath and pointed directly at Wu Xian.
"Who are you? Why didn’t you come to Tianyong City through the front entrance? What are you sneaking in the back mountain for!!!"
"I... I’m Wu Xian from Nuwa Temple. I heard something is about to happen in Tianyong City, so I’ve come to take a look. May I ask if there have been any unusual events in the martial arts sect recently?"
Hearing this stranger’s words—
Fu Hua was stunned.
How did he know that something strange was happening inside the sect?
Without time to investigate further, she asked directly: "Where did you hear that our sect is about to have an accident?"
"I came from the Eternal God Cult. The chief priest there imprisoned Elder Ziyin and said that Baili Tusu, who is in charge of the Fen Ji Sword, would give me a surprise..."
After Wu Xian finished speaking—
Fu Hua finally understood what was happening now.
True Person Ziyin went to the Eternal God Cult to inquire about sins, but was arrested.
Baili Tusu killed Feng Guangmo, but was brought back to the sect by True Person Ziyin.
More than that—Baili Tusu was not a good person at all, but an evil demon who slaughtered his parents and an entire village of people!
Wu Xian looked at the shocked expression of the girl before him and finally realized something was wrong.
He tentatively asked: "May I ask if something bad happened to Tianyong City?"
"This... I just think something is wrong with the martial arts sect, especially with Baili Tusu... that person who came into contact with Han Yunxi—there is something wrong!"
Fu Hua told the Nuwa Temple messenger everything that had happened recently.
The latter was shocked and exclaimed: "So the chief priest of the Eternal God Cult was right! These people must be controlled by Fen Ji!"
"Then what should we do? Shall we go to the sect head for help?"
Although Fu Hua was quick-minded, she was still just a little girl.
She panicked and her mind went blank.
Wu Xian thought for a while and said: "We have two paths now. One is to find the head of Tianyong City and have him destroy Baili Tusu directly; the other is to return to the Eternal God Cult and seek their help.
To be honest, the power of the Eternal Religion is terrifying..."
In truth, following his thinking—
Naturally, it was best to seek the head of Tianyong City to handle it. After all, the Eternal Church was an outsider.
Someone came to a lion to open his mouth—
It felt uncomfortable.
However, now that Baili Tusu had a problem, he understood the fact that Feng Guangmo had been killed.
It was all his fault this time.
Ugh...
Wu Xian couldn’t help but sigh when he thought of this.
