The immortal energy outside dissipated, and I let out a long breath. When I turned back, I saw the phosphorescent light floating ahead, which startled me.
“Divine Lord, I’m truly sorry for causing you to fall into demonic state today,” Xiao Er said with a frown. “Is there something weighing on the Divine Lord’s mind? If your heart were as clear as a mirror, you wouldn’t be enticed by my flute.”
“I paused briefly, changing the subject: ‘You haven’t finished telling me about Liu Banxia and Bai Qianshang.’
Xiao Er nodded, glanced at the already sleeping person, then floated outside. After basking in the pure moonlight for a while, he said: ‘When Qu Yimo appeared outside the Liu family’s door, he was severely wounded. The master rescued him and kept him at the Liu family, revealing nothing about his identity. That year, the master was fourteen, at the age of first love, and they were together for three years, reaching the point of marriage.’
‘At this time, the master was already the Liu family head, insisting on marrying Qu Yimo despite public criticism. But on their wedding night, Qu Yimo disappeared, and the Liu family’s generations-old martial arts secret manual vanished as well.’
‘Although outsiders claimed Qu Yimo stole the manual, the master didn’t believe it. Around this time, rumors spread about the revival of the Mojie Sect, causing widespread panic. The three major families discussed gathering righteous sects to completely eliminate the Mojie Sect. During the master’s hesitation, Bai Qianshang appeared.’
Xiao Er’s breathing became heavy, and after a long pause, he said: ‘Bai Qianshang told the master she was now the Mojie Sect leader and would not harm the martial arts world, asking her not to pursue further. The master didn’t suspect anything, and Bai Qianshang left quickly after saying this.'”
“
Later, the master argued with everyone and temporarily calmed the situation. But half a month later, news came that the three major families were suddenly attacked by the Mojie Sect. When the master was shocked, Bai Qianshang appeared again, telling her the Mojie Sect planned to destroy the righteous sects and asking her to go with her.
