Chapter 2105: Can’t Die Now
Why could she feel the air of cultivators from Gu Ning’s body after so long? Why was Gu Ning able to release stronger magical energy when she seemed to be at the same level as her?
All of a sudden, Baili Zongxue thought of Shangguan Yang’s female disciple, Qing He.
Gu Ning was in the exact same situation as Qing He.
Thinking of that, an idea dawned on Baili Zongxue. Could Qing He be Gu Ning?
Although they had two different faces, it was easy to change one’s appearance. After all, if Gu Ning was really Qing He and Shangguan Yang was her master, she could change her appearance as she liked. In addition, she also felt Qing He looked familiar and Qing He had saved her twice.
She used to think that they might have known each other when they were kids, but now she felt it was impossible.
Moreover, Gu Ning had power crystals with her. She said a master gave them to her, but if Gu Ning was Qing He, it would make sense. The power crystals were given to her by Shangguan Yang.
It was just a guess, but she couldn’t ignore the possibility.
Anyway, since she agreed to keep what had happened today a secret, she wouldn’t tell other people.
Before Leng Shaoting and Jing Yunyao came, the evil cultivator tried to escape many times, but failed.
Shortly after Baili Zongxue left, Gu Ning hid her level as a cultivator and became an ordinary mortal.
The evil cultivator was surprised and curious, so she asked, “How did you do it?”
“Can’t tell you.” Gu Ning said the same sentence. She wouldn’t tell an outsider her secret.
After half an hour, Leng Shaoting and Jing Yunyao came. Because they needed to punish the evil cultivator, they didn’t need to avoid Jing Yunyao. However, when the evil cultivator saw Jing Yunyao, she was surprised. “A-Are you Jing Yunyao? Aren’t you already dead?”
Obviously, the evil cultivator recognized Jing Yunyao, so she knew that Jing Yunyao was “dead”.
After so many years, it was indeed shocking when a “dead” person suddenly showed up in front of her. Besides, she couldn’t see Jing Yunyao’s level and felt stressed in front of her, which meant that Jing Yunyao was stronger than her.
Hearing that, Jing Yunyao observed the evil cultivator for a while and soon recognized her. “Miao Jingjing? How come it’s you? When did you join the Evil Practice?”
“I…” Miao Jingjing looked upset at once, showing sadness and hatred. It was obvious that she became an evil cultivator after experiencing something terrible.
“Yunyao, could you please let me go once for the sake of the deadly experience we’ve been through together? I promise I won’t attack cultivators and girls born in the lunar year again.” Miao Jingjing begged Jing Yunyao. She was unwilling to be killed just like that. She still needed to take revenge!
Miao Jingjing and Jing Yunyao had been through something deadly together before?
Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting exchanged a glance, then stopped. They wanted to know what Jing Yunyao wanted to do.
Although the evil cultivators weren’t welcome everywhere, they didn’t need to be killed. Therefore, if Jing Yunyao was willing to let her go, Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting could help her.
“You’re an evil cultivator now. I can’t trust you,” said Jing Yunyao, because the evil cultivators couldn’t control themselves sometimes. She couldn’t take the risk.
“Yunyao, I’m sorry. I’ve never really hurt cultivators and girls born in a lunar year until this time. I’ve only done it once. Please…” Miao Jingjing knelt down before Jing Yunyao and begged her.
She didn’t expect to be caught when she tried to hurt cultivators and girls born in a lunar year for the first time.
With a frown, Jing Yunyao stared at her without a word. In fact, she believed Miao Jingjing’s words, but she was an evil cultivator after all. She didn’t hurt innocent people before, but she might do it in the future.
“Yunyao, please forgive me this time. I haven’t taken revenge yet. I can’t die now!”
Saying that, Miao Jingjing showed strong hatred and reluctance with a distorted expression. Her eyes became red too. If it weren’t for revenge, she wouldn’t have joined the Evil Practice.
“Revenge?” Jing Yunyao slightly frowned and felt touched because she felt for it. She had worked so hard in order to take revenge too, but she didn’t walk on the wrong path.
Although they didn’t have a close relationship, they had experienced deadly situations together before. If they hadn’t helped each other, they might have been dead already. Therefore, they were grateful to one another.
All in all, she didn’t have the heart to let Leng Shaoting kill Miao Jingjing.
“I understand your feelings, but we can’t let you go without a punishment. You don’t need to be killed, but we’ll deprive you of your level,” said Jing Yunyao. As long as Miao Jingjing lost her level as a cultivator, she would become a mortal or a disabled person.
“No, if so, I can’t take revenge.” Miao Jingjing struggled once she heard that she would be deprived of her level. Without the abilities as a cultivator, she wouldn’t be able to take revenge. Actually, her current level wasn’t enough for her to take revenge.
“Who’s your enemy? Perhaps I can help you,” asked Jing Yunyao. She would help her, but wouldn’t do it for her.
“What?” Miao Jingjing’s face lit up once she heard that. She knew it was very difficult for her to take revenge alone, so she didn’t care who helped her as long as her enemy could be killed.
“I need to know who your enemy is first, but we can’t talk about that here. Leave with us. We can talk on our way back,” said Jing Yunyao.
“No problem.” Miao Jingjing agreed without hesitation because it was impossible for her to run away now, and she might survive if she left with them.
As long as she could take revenge, she wouldn’t mind becoming a mortal without any magical skills. She lived to take revenge.
After that, Miao Jingjing left with Jing Yunyao and the others.
“To Huafu Hills, or the siheyuan?” Leng Shaoting asked Jing Yunyao.
“Let’s go to the siheyuan!” said Jing Yunyao. It was safer there. If they were going to deprive Miao Jingjing of her level as a cultivator, it would surely make loud sounds. Only in the siheyuan would they not be found out by other people.
Therefore, Leng Shaoting drove to the siheyuan.
After that, Miao Jingjing told her story. “My enemy is Wei Xian’s disciple, Hong Yifeng. Ten years ago, he killed my husband and raped me. He even wanted to kill me afterwards. I survived because I wasn’t fated to die. However, I was seriously hurt. I can’t accept it, so I want to take revenge. I absorbed monsters’ energy to recover, then joined the Evil Practice. I wanted to improve and take revenge as soon as possible, so I don’t mind taking a shortcut…”
