Chapter 1364

Seeing Qiu Baiyi so virtuous, Ye Zhangqing felt helpless, saying with a heart full of complexity.

You don't need to be like that.

I'm back.

Hearing the sound, Qiu Baiyi turned her head, gave a gentle smile, like a virtuous wife and good mother.

But the more she was like that, the more complicated Ye Zhangqing felt inside.

Only after Qiu Baiyi finished, when the two sat in the courtyard drinking, did Ye Zhangqing speak earnestly.

Actually, you really don't need to be like that.

Why?

Qiu Baiyi said with a serious face, she had tried every means, wanting to prove her sincerity to Ye Zhangqing.

To let him know her feelings, but Ye Zhangqing always evaded, never facing it directly.

Qiu Baiyi didn't understand, wondering if she had done something not good enough.

Facing Qiu Baiyi's gaze, Ye Zhangqing also spoke his answer.

Maybe it was wrong from the moment we met; if circumstances were different, perhaps it could have been otherwise.

I never told you, I was born in a sealed world; my family is neither big nor small. I grew up and joined the Dao Yi Sect, and my cooking skills gradually came to prominence...................

The fellow disciples and elders in the sect were all very kind to me....................

Later, because the Viper forcibly opened a spatial passage, though they couldn't match the ancestors, in the end it was because of me that the Viper and they managed to escape....................

So, when I met you, I was merely a captive, thinking only of preserving my life and escaping; even after you brought me to Bai Song Gu, it was the same thought.

You say, in such a situation, do I have the mood to think about lovey-dovey matters?

Ye Zhangqing also thought a lot today; at this moment, what he says to Qiu Baiyi are his sincere words.

It's not that Qiu Baiyi is lacking; it's that we were wrong from the start. Ye Zhangqing now has no mood to talk about that damn bullshit love story; he just wants to run.

He honestly told Qiu Baiyi his past and everything he experienced being captured by the Viper.

After hearing Ye Zhangqing's words, Qiu Baiyi fell into silence.

Seeing this, Ye Zhangqing thought there was a chance, finally having persuaded this woman; but the next second, the ever-silent Qiu Baiyi suddenly lifted her head and gave Ye Zhangqing a gentle smile, saying.

It's getting late; let's rest early.

Huh???

I'm talking serious business with you.

I'm also talking serious business.

Do you mean what I just said to you was all playing music to a cow?

I listened.

Fine, fine, fine; if we're resting, you still have to return to your own Dong Fu.

From today on, I'll be living here.

You.............

During the day I'll listen to you; at night you have to listen to me.

You........... holy shit, let go of me.

Ye Zhangqing still wanted to say something, but as a pressure descended, his body was instantly immobilized, and then the courtyard was once again enveloped by a formation.

Qiu Baiyi rose, stretched, and carried Ye Zhangqing toward the room.

And Ye Zhangqing howled, wanting to cry but with no tears.

You're acting weird; something will go wrong.

I want there to be a problem; I don't believe you can even abandon your own bloodline.

You damn............

The door slammed shut, and another long night awaited Ye Zhangqing.

Just as Ye Zhangqing cried to heaven and earth with no response, in the Tianwu Realm, no one noticed the Viper and the Blood God silently appearing in Ling Tian Pavilion, the Dong Fu of Old Man Ling.

Their arrival was unknown even to the elders of Ling Tian Pavilion; only the three of them knew about each other.

Inside a secret chamber of the Dong Fu, Old Man Ling looked at the Blood God and the Viper before him, smiling kindly.

You two come so mysteriously to my Ling Tian Pavilion; what urgent matter do you have?

The Blood God's face was extremely grim; these days he's practically been driven mad by the Viper's torment.

This guy seems off in every way; the Blood God even suspects that this fellow has secretly considered destroying his Blood King Palace and then going to Qiu Baiyi to exchange for Ye Zhangqing.

Thus the Blood God must carefully watch the Viper's every move each day, fearing it might suddenly go berserk.

These days are truly unbearable; otherwise the Blood God wouldn't have agreed to such an absurd demand, nor would he be here.

Upon hearing Old Man Ling's words, the Viper spoke first.

We've come to cooperate with you.

Cooperation? How would this old man know what we have to cooperate on?

The Blood King Palace and Ling Tian Pavilion are mortal enemies; let alone cooperating, even not fighting when they meet counts as restraint.

However, the Viper didn't care about this and immediately continued.

Bai Song Gu, let's join forces and destroy Bai Song Gu together.

This is the purpose of the Viper and the Blood God coming here; hearing this, Old Man Ling's smile didn't diminish, and his expression didn't change.

Instead, he spoke slowly.

The tripartite stalemate in the Tianwu Realm has lasted for hundreds of years; although our three major sects have been constantly at war, it is precisely because of this tripartite stalemate that this delicate balance has been maintained.

You want to join forces to destroy Bai Song Gu with me, Blood God Brother; do you think I would agree?

In Old Man Ling's heart, he naturally is unwilling to break this balance; otherwise, last time he wouldn't have intervened to help Qiu Baiyi.

Now, if the balance among the three major sects is broken, then once Bai Song Gu is gone, the Blood King Palace can just focus all its efforts on dealing with the Heaven-Suppressing Pavilion.

Add a Viper to that, and Ling Lao Tou doesn't want to create such a situation.

Speaking, his gaze naturally fell on Li Xue; as for the Heavenly Martial Realm, the Viper has always been an outsider.

So even though just now he had been the one speaking, Li Xue remained silent, but Ling Lao Tou was well aware that the person who ultimately makes the decision still has to be Li Xue.

Moreover, seeing Li Xue's expression as if he had eaten a fly, Ling Lao Tou had long guessed that this time, Li Xue is probably unwilling to come.

So, in Ling Lao Tou's view, this cooperation is pure nonsense.

But the next second, Li Xue's answer directly left Ling Lao Tou stunned on the spot, the smile on his face freezing.

"Before coming, I knew you wouldn't agree."

"However, this time you have no reason to refuse."

"We join forces, destroy Bai Song Gu, all spoils split 3-7, you Heaven-Suppressing Pavilion take the seven."

Huh???

Upon saying that, Ling Lao Tou froze, looking at Li Xue with some disbelief, as if trying to confirm whether he had been possessed or was just joking.

Joining forces to deal with Bai Song Gu, the final spoils split 3-7, he, Heaven-Suppressing Pavilion, takes the seven.

What does that mean? Don't underestimate this two percent gain—given Bai Song Gu's enormous base, you wouldn't even say it's two percent, even one percent; normally, Li Xue would never allow that.

If it's less by one percent, that difference would be too obvious; moreover, with such a harvest, what it represents for the sect's development is self-evident—could Li Xue not know these things?

So Ling Lao Tou finds it unbelievable.
