Chapter 203 Destined
This teaching has lasted for ten thousand years.
He stayed behind, remaining by her side, and never returned to Longyu again.
I watched the sunset and the stars with her, accompanied her on her campaigns, and spent every day and every year with her. Before I knew it, tens of thousands of years had passed.
But his position never changed; he always stood below the altar, peering at the gods on it.
The four seas are at peace, only the realm of gods remains.
I thought that the long years to come would be peaceful and stable, but who knew that this would happen.
Looking at the lush Floating Tree, Geng Wuji wept blood tears for the third time.
The gods will eventually return to their altars; they will no longer be gods to him alone.
"I'm sorry, but this time, I have to disobey you."
……
(Uncle-Master is available)
Liu Jun stopped feeding the spirit beasts, which was a pastime, and looked up into the distance.
It's been so long since I've seen him that I almost forgot there was such a person in the Xuanshan Sect.
(What is it?)
(Upon hearing that his martial uncle had returned, he thought he should come and see him.)
Liu Jun remained silent for a while, then raised his hand to remove the restriction and let people in. Instead of returning to the courtyard to receive them, he continued feeding the spirit beasts.
A moment later, another person appeared behind him; it was Xuanwu, whom he hadn't seen for a long time.
"Is my martial uncle alright?"
"I heard that my uncle had returned some time ago, so I came to look for you. But unfortunately, my uncle went on a journey again. Today I had nothing to do, so I came out for a stroll. But then I heard that my uncle had returned, so I came to look for you. My uncle seems to have a lot of free time, coming to take care of these little spirit beasts."
Liu Jun put down the grass in his hand, clapped his hands, and then looked at the person behind him and teased, "Nephew, you seem to be having a lot of free time. Haven't you gone to comprehend the Dao again?"
Xuanwu smiled and said, "Uncle, you are joking. It is austere on Shuilin Peak, unlike the lively atmosphere here. I haven't been here for a long time, and there seem to be a few unfamiliar faces on the mountain. I almost thought that you had started taking on disciples."
As soon as he entered, Xuanwu sensed another extremely powerful aura, almost equal to his own. He wondered what extraordinary person his junior uncle had brought back this time.
Liu Jun sensed that he had something else in mind, and didn't intend to hide anything: "You mean Wuji? He's my new servant, and he takes care of the daily life in the mountains now."
“Your senior uncle has a good eye for people. Although I have never met the person you mentioned, I noticed his presence just now.”
Liu Jun stopped in his tracks: "Oh? I didn't know he was so capable that you noticed him?"
"Uncle-Master, please don't tease me."
Having reached their level, they are quite aware of certain things.
The two then headed toward the courtyard, chatting casually like friends along the way.
As soon as she stepped into the courtyard, she saw Geng Wuji waiting for her to return, silently observing Xuanwu beside her.
"Sir, who is this gentleman?"
“Oh, this is Xuanwu, he is… my junior nephew, this is the Wuji I was talking about.”
Xuanwu looked warmly at the tall and imposing Geng Wuji in front of him and nodded in acknowledgment: "Fellow Immortal Wuji, your bearing is as majestic as a dragon and as graceful as a phoenix, you are clearly extraordinary."
Geng Wuji smiled and said, "Your junior disciple has good taste."
The situation suddenly became awkward. Liu Jun looked at Geng Wuji, puzzled. When would he say something like that? He usually spoke very tactfully.
"Please come in and sit down, Wuji. Go and have some tea."
Geng Wuji remained silent for a moment before replying in a deep voice, "Yes."
Xuanwu followed Liu Jun to the front hall at a leisurely pace, pondering the origins of this person named Wuji.
The person that my uncle brought back had her reasons, but he felt that this person was dangerous, and there was something inexplicable about him. He was neither human, nor demon, nor ghost or evil spirit.
"Fellow Immortal Wuji... from where did you first meet my Martial Uncle?"
After taking their seats in the hall, Xuanwu tentatively asked.
Liu Jun looked at him and smiled, "Interested in him?"
Xuanwu composed himself and looked towards the door: "I suppose so. Fellow Immortal Wuji gives me a very strange feeling."
Then he turned to look at Liu Jun: "Uncle-Master, do you know anything about his background?"
Liu Jun looked at him with an ambiguous expression: "If I said I knew, what would you do then?"
"If my uncle knows, then I'll consider myself to have overstepped my bounds. I'm just afraid..."
"I know."
Liu Jun replied calmly, "But you also know who I am now. If there were any hidden dangers, how could I keep him?"
Xuanwu smiled warmly: "Uncle, you're overthinking it."
The two chatted about other things, and before long, Geng Wuji brought in some spiritual tea.
Xuanwu's visit this time seemed to be purely spontaneous; he only stayed for half an hour before leaving.
As dusk approached, Liu Jun didn't think much of it and went back to his room to rest after everyone left.
As the long night stretched on, Xuanwu leisurely walked to the foot of Shuilin Peak, and a hint of confusion finally appeared on his usually emotionless face.
"Why is he here...?"
……
"How can it be!!!"
A voice suddenly rang out from the Hall of Inquiry, piquing the curiosity of the disciples passing by outside. They came over in twos and threes to watch.
Inside the Hall of Inquiry, Chai Yuanman stood to one side, looking incredulously at the elders at the head of the hall and at Wei Qiushuang, who had been weakened by the Soul-Enlightening Technique.
"Wei Qiushuang has repeatedly used improper means to persecute fellow disciples, and her Dao heart is unstable. She has acted improperly and has secretly used forbidden techniques to improve her cultivation. All of this has been confirmed."
"Impossible, impossible! Junior Sister would never do such a thing! Senior Brother, say something! You can't take advantage of Master's seclusion to frame Junior Sister like this!"
Chai Yuan's eyes were bloodshot, and he still wanted to explain for Wei Qiushuang, but no one present spoke up for him. Even their senior brother, who usually protected them, remained silent.
"It's her! It must be her who framed our junior sister! Elders, it's this woman who couldn't stand Su Jiangling being nice to our junior sister, so she used this trick to frame her. All of you have been deceived by this woman!"
Lu Xihan, standing to the side, simply watched Chai Yuan go mad.
When had his beloved junior sister ever looked so disheveled? And he, like a mad dog that had lost its mind, dared to say anything, even questioning the elders who had been in charge of the Heart-Questioning Hall for many years.
“Chai Yuan, stop making excuses for this person. The Minghun Technique has never made a mistake, and everything she did was true.”
The leading elder spoke angrily: "Hmph! Using forbidden techniques should be severely punished in any sect or school. Canceling her cultivation and expelling her from the sect is already too lenient. Don't make a fuss about it any further!"
Chai Yuanmeng knelt down and said fiercely, "If you're going to cripple someone, cripple me too! Junior Sister has been exceptionally talented since childhood. It's better to kill her than cripple her. Why are you so heartless!"
Chai Yuan pointed at Zhao Shi with disgust: "And you! What did Master tell you before he went into seclusion! Ha, you always pretend to be protective of your own, but now look at you, you good-for-nothing! Even with Junior Sister in this state, you won't even say a word to plead for her! What use are you!"
Everyone present watched him go mad with cold eyes. He had offended so many people. Even if the Xuanshan Sect kept him, judging from his appearance, he probably wouldn't go far.
"Chai Yuan, are you really going to protect this criminal?"
Chai Yuan chuckled and slowly moved to Wei Qiushuang's side to help her up.
Without uttering a single word, everything was conveyed.
"Very well! Wei Qiushuang has used forbidden techniques without authorization, so her cultivation has been crippled. Chai Yuan has acted recklessly to protect the criminal, so both of them are expelled from the sect! Does anyone here have any objections?"
Several people in the hall bowed to him, saying, "Elder Zhang's decisions are fair and just; we are no different."
"Then execute it immediately!"
Wei Qiushuang was pulled away from Chai Yuan's arms, while he was frozen in place and watched helplessly as she was crippled.
“No, no, no!!!”
Still weak, Wei Qiushuang felt her spiritual energy draining away little by little until the area in her dantian darkened and died, leaving no trace of life.
That suffocating despair made her feel like she was living a life worse than death.
"thump"
She fell to the ground like a piece of trash, waving her hands wildly in the air as if she were a madwoman, desperately trying to hold onto the dissipating spiritual energy.
"No, no!"
"No, my spiritual power! I don't want to become a useless person! My spiritual power! My spiritual power, my spiritual power, my spiritual power..."
The light in her eyes gradually faded, her waving arms slowly stopped, and she seemed to have lost all her strength, leaving only muttering to herself.
Lu Xihan watched all of this unfold and come to an end, but she didn't feel much joy. She only felt that her life was ultimately in her own hands.
