Chapter 110 Su Lingyue Makes a Vow, Uninvited Guest Arrives
As soon as Xin Yuan finished speaking, Shou Jing, who was shaken, subconsciously activated the jade ruyi to protect himself and his party.
next moment
A loud shout rang out: "Give it to me!"
Shoujing felt his hands suddenly go empty.
Suddenly, the restless monkey reached into the void, stretched out in front of itself, and snatched away the jade ruyi.
"My Ruyi! Give it back to me, you monkey demon!"
The restless monkey toyed with the white jade ruyi, then looked at Shoujing with a cold smile: "What, your ruyi? If you call him, will he answer?"
"My master's name, Xuanxiao, is inscribed on the handle of that ruyi scepter!"
"Huh? What right do you have to carve your master's name on my ruyi scepter? You're incredibly audacious!"
Shoujing was furious: "Utterly shameless! You clearly took this from me! You demon monkey, if you return my Ruyi and the Dragon-Binding Rope, I will leave on the spot and never steal anything from you again!"
The Monkey King scoffed, "Tch~ Do you think this is child's play? If you want it, you'll have to show some real skill!"
Seeing that the Mind Monkey was determined not to return, Shoujing steeled his resolve and roared at his disciples, "Form the formation! Today we will fight this demon monkey to the death!"
After saying this, thirty-six battle flags flew out, completely surrounding the Monkey King.
Xin Yuan looked at the array flags with disdain; entering and leaving Qingming was like an instinct to him.
With just one step, the Mind Monkey stepped out of the formation.
When Shoujing saw that even the formation couldn't contain his restless mind, he instantly sensed something was wrong.
Without further hesitation, he took out the Heaven-Opening Pearl and hurled it at the demon monkey.
When Xin Yuan saw that Shou Jing had taken out another magical treasure, he was not surprised but delighted.
He is currently lacking in resources, so he gave the Dragon Binding Rope to Chen Yunling.
These two magical artifacts, one for offense and one for defense, are quite suitable for my use.
He immediately summoned his golden cudgel, which transformed into a bowl, and covered the bead inside.
Seeing Lingbao still jumping around and acting restlessly, Xin Yuan had a thought, and the Golden Cudgel transformed again.
They directly bound the bead to one end of the golden cudgel.
He then casually swung the stick at Shoujing.
Shoujing's vision blurred, and then a black staff shadow descended upon him.
The defensive magic weapon on his head shattered instantly, like a glass plate that had been struck.
The stick, undiminished in power, continued to smash towards Shoujing's head.
Shoujing's mind went blank, only one thought echoing in his mind: "My life is over!"
𪠽~
With a clang of metal, a long, emerald-green flute blocked the monkey's blow.
Upon seeing the person before him, Xin Yuan's heart tightened: "Su Daozi!"
Xin Yuan's words awakened Shou Jing, who had been waiting for death with his eyes closed. When he opened his eyes, he was surprised to find that it was indeed Dao Zi who had saved him.
"Michiko!"
Shoujing was almost moved to tears.
Seeing Shoujing's demeanor, Su Lingyue frowned instantly and immediately shouted in a deep voice, "Calm your mind!"
Upon hearing this, Shoujing quickly composed himself and said with remorse, "Daoist Master, I have brought shame upon our sect. Not only did I fail to subdue this demonic monkey, but I also lost three of our sect's most precious treasures. I beg you, Daoist Master, to avenge me!"
Su Lingyue frowned and looked at Xin Yuan: "Fellow Daoist, could you please return this disciple's sect treasure? I can vouch for them so they won't bother you again."
Having witnessed Su Lingyue's abilities, Xin Yuan knew that even if he himself were to join forces with her, he would be no match for this woman.
After weighing the options carefully, Xin Yuan said, "It's not difficult to return them, but I can only return these two items. I broke the rope, so I can't return it now."
Su Lingyue did not see Xin Yuan give away the Dragon-Binding Rope; by the time she arrived, Xin Yuan had already escaped.
He nodded and said, "Two pieces are fine too. If the rope breaks, so be it."
"Hey, wait a minute, I, Old Sun, have one more condition!"
Su Lingyue frowned slightly: "What are the conditions?"
"This return of the treasure is entirely out of respect for Daozi. I need Daozi to grant me, Old Sun, one condition: regarding the previous matter, Daozi, please leave it for the next six months. You should understand what I mean. What do you say?"
After saying this, Xin Yuan stared at Su Lingyue. If this woman didn't agree, he definitely wouldn't return it. He could just run back to Yunyang Ridge again.
If she agrees, this deal will be very worthwhile.
Su Lingyue naturally knew what "Heart Monkey" referred to.
This demonic monkey is that person's incarnation, two bodies with one mind; presumably, this was also that person's intention.
I had always intended to be on good terms with him, and keeping quiet about it was also my own choice. Agreeing to this request would not cause me any loss.
After thinking it over, Su Lingyue immediately said, "Alright! I, Su Lingyue, swear by the heavens that I will not tell a third person about what happened today for at least six months!"
The vow was made, and then a bolt from the blue struck.
Seeing that she had directly made a vow to the Heavenly Dao, Xin Yuan's expression immediately turned solemn: "Su Daozi is truly a man of integrity! I, Old Sun, will offer this treasure..."
After saying this, Xin Yuan took out two treasures and presented them with both hands.
Su Lingyue smiled slightly, then took out a gleaming golden rope from her storage ring and handed it to Shoujing.
"I've replenished your three treasures. Take them with you and you can set off back to your sect! If True Lord Xuanxiao questions you, just blame it on me!"
Shoujing's initial unease about not being able to retract the Dragon-Binding Rope instantly subsided.
He immediately prostrated himself before Su Lingyue, saying, "This disciple thanks you for saving me, Daoist. I also swear an oath to Heaven that I will do my utmost to repay your kindness today!"
Su Lingyue nodded, feeling grateful and reciprocating the favor; this was a fair exchange for her help.
After Shoujing finished performing the grand ceremony, he led his disciples westward.
After watching the disciples disappear from sight, Su Lingyue said, "I have agreed to your request. You should be able to see that I came with the intention of making friends. I hope you can put aside past grievances and reconcile."
"I, Old Sun, have felt your sincerity, but in the end, it is up to me to decide. Why don't you leave a token? If I am interested, I can invite you."
Su Lingyue's expression brightened: "That's perfect. This is the 'Ten Thousand Miles of Cloud Light Flying Scroll,' which can transmit sound ten times. If you change your mind, you can use this to summon me~"
"good!"
……
Watching Su Lingyue leave, Xin Yuan couldn't help but shake his head: "I originally wanted to get myself a couple of spiritual treasures, but now I've ended up giving away a small favor. Sigh!"
After Xin Yuan finished his reflections, just as he was about to send a telepathic message to Chen Chunan, he saw an extremely flamboyant carriage coming from the east.
Two strongmen at the front of the chariot each carried a large flag with a huge character "孔" (Kong) written on it.
This group was extraordinary, even the flag bearer had the cultivation level of the late Golden Core stage.
His sweeping movements to the left and right exuded a powerful Nascent Soul aura.
Looking in the direction the group was heading, Xin Yuan sensed something: "This group seems to be heading towards Jiangzhou! Could it be another calamity? Is the path of inner alchemy really this perilous? Is every step a calamity?"
……
Pingjiang Water Mansion
Chi Mianxi paced back and forth, holding a golden invitation in her hand.
Her usually cheerful face was now filled with panic: "They haven't come looking for me for so many years, why are they suddenly here again? What should I do? What should I do? I finally became the ruler of Pingjiang, and now they're taking me away, I'll be at a huge loss!"
After making several trips back and forth, Chi Mianxi gritted her teeth and said, "I'll go find Chen Chunan. He's full of bad ideas; he'll definitely have a way!"
Having said that, Chi Mianxi revealed her true form, burst out of the river, and flew directly towards Yunyang Ridge.
