Volume 2 Chapter 128 A Woman Like Water

  Zhao Zhuo, hiding in the dark, saw this situation and couldn't help but feel a surge of impulse to rush out and kill Cheng Chi, after all, this was probably Cheng Chi's weakest moment. If he could take advantage of it and kill him, not only would he get the Da Jiu Tian Sword Box, but also the corpses of the two Qing Luan birds.

  However, despite the great temptation, Zhao Zhuo was not a impulsive person and suppressed the temptation. Without mentioning whether he and Bai Jing had the ability to kill Cheng Chi or not, even if they killed Cheng Chi, what benefits could they gain?

  Perhaps the Da Jiutian Sword Box and the Qing Luan Bird were excellent spoils of war, but Zhao Zhuo wasn't someone who would go to great lengths to obtain them. What had sparked unusual thoughts in his mind was actually Cheng Chi's boastful words from earlier.

  Just by looking at Cheng Chi's actions, it's clear that he was blinded by his sudden good fortune and became arrogant to the point of wanting to compete with Luo Kai Shan for the position of sect leader.

  Although Cheng Chi may not have succeeded, he will definitely cause a huge impact on Zhong Yu.

  Believe that once Cheng Chi launches a coup, someone will definitely respond. After all, even in the most united sects, there are contradictions within, and Cheng Chi is the one who triggers these contradictions.

  It can be foreseen that Chong Xiao Zong might be the biggest winner of this Fuyou Cave Heaven opening, but the subsequent turmoil has already laid down the roots of disaster.

  Ji Hongri died at the hands of Cheng Chi, and the root cause was the uneven distribution of spoils. The people who came from Chongxiao Sect were not just one or two individuals, but a group after group of people. There must be contradictions among these people due to the allocation of treasures, and as long as one person takes the lead, it will definitely trigger the dissatisfaction in the hearts of many people. It is unknown whether Chongxiao Sect will be reborn from the ashes or decline at that time.

  If there are people who think that Chongxiang Zong is not doing well, others may not know, but he is one of them. As long as he can add trouble to Chongxiang Zong, he will be very happy.

  After thinking of these things, Zhao Zhuo's face revealed a strange smile, and at a glance, it was clear that Zhao Zhuo didn't have any good intentions at the moment.

  Bai Jing saw the expression on Zhao Zhuang's face and frowned, saying: "Zhao Zhuang, with that sinister look on your face, who are you plotting against again?"

  Zhao Duo awkwardly smiled and said: "I'm such a good person, how could I possibly be calculating?"

  "Believe you? Don't be ridiculous!"

  Zhao Duo chuckled and said: "Actually, I was thinking of taking advantage of the situation to kill Cheng Chi."

  Bai Jingjing's eyes widened slightly, and a thoughtful expression appeared on her face, clearly thinking about the benefits she would gain if she killed Cheng Chi.

  However, Bai Jingying was somewhat hesitant, after all, Cheng Chi had just shown such ferocity, and even if he was now lacking in strength, with a little carelessness, Cheng Chi could completely turn the tables and kill them.

  Shaking her head slowly, Bai Jing said: "I don't agree"

  As for the opinions of Bai Jingjing, Zhao Shuo was not surprised. Even if he were to say it himself, from a safe perspective, killing Cheng Chi would be a suicidal move.

  Fortunately, Zhao Zhuo himself did not have the motivation to kill Cheng Chi, so Zhao Zhuo smiled in the worried gaze of Bai Jing: "Well, I just wanted to think about it, I still have a good life, and I don't want to die so early"

  She stretched out her hand and pushed Zhao Zhuo away, and Bai Jing said with a sigh of relief: "You scared me to death!"

  Looking at Bai Jing's worried appearance, Zhao Suo's heart moved, and a familiar figure emerged from the depths of his mind.

  Su Qingyan, a woman as gentle as water, I don't know what has become of her after she went missing.

  A thick thought arose in his heart, a thread of pain came, Zhao Zhuo's expression was somewhat unnatural, Bai Jing was startled and anxiously said: "Zhao Zhuo, what's wrong with you? Don't scare me!"

  As he heard the sound of the white reeds, Zhao Zhuo slowly came back to his senses and steeled himself to suppress all thoughts of Su Qingyan deep within his heart.

  Taking a deep breath, Zhao Zhuo's face revealed a hint of a smile as he said, "Don't worry about me, I'm fine."

  Bai Jing's face showed some disbelief, after all, this was not the first time something like this had happened to Zhao Suo. She had seen him several times before, lost in thought with a gentle and nostalgic expression on his face.

  At first, Bai Jing thought Zhao Shuo was thinking of a certain woman. However, after seeing Zhao Luan, Bai Jing had privately asked him about it, and from the information he got from Zhao Luan, it turned out that Zhao Shuo had never been moved by any woman, even if there was one, she would be the first.

  Sometimes Bai Jingjing herself doubted whether she was thinking too much, but Zhao Shuo's abnormality made her inevitably raise her curiosity and doubts.

  Zhao Duo didn't know what Bai Jingrui was thinking in her heart, but after suppressing his thoughts of Su Qingyan, the intense sadness on Zhao Duo's body also disappeared. He reached out and held Bai Jingrui's small hand, with a warm smile on his face.

  Led by Zhao Shuo's hand, Bai Jingjian put down the doubts in her heart, and for a moment, a strong warmth filled the air between them.

  Suddenly a strange wave of fluctuations came, Zhao Zhuo and Bai Jing hurriedly shifted their attention to the direction where the fluctuations were coming from.

  At a glance, Zhao Shuo and Bai Jing looked at each other in surprise, only to see that the place where Cheng Chi was injured had turned into a huge pit, while Cheng Chi himself was floating in mid-air with an angry face, exuding a fierce killing aura.

  Across from Cheng Chi, it was one of the four teams that had previously entered the Jing Tian Mu to search for the Qing Luan bird. This team consisted of five people, with the highest cultivation being a Gui Yi period early-stage cultivator, and the remaining four also having Shen Tong period cultivation.

  It was unlikely that these people would have found this place, but perhaps because they were advancing at a slower speed, they happened to notice the fluctuations in the law of Qi that Cheng Chi had not retracted when he killed the Qing Luan bird.

  Since there is fluctuation of Fa, it means that someone must be fighting. In the Fowu Cave Heaven, wherever there is a fight, there will definitely be all kinds of treasures. If not for the treasure, who would risk their lives to fight with others?

  Following the fluctuation, a group of people rushed over just in time to see Cheng Chi sitting there with a pale face, nursing his wounds. The surroundings were in disarray, with signs of a fierce battle everywhere.

  Several loose cultivators still had discerning eyes, and soon judged Chong Xiao's identity from the bodies of several beheaded Chong Xiao Sect disciples, of course, there were also marks on Chong Xiao's clothes.

  When they saw that so many people had died at once when they met Zhong Chong, several loose cultivators were still greatly shocked. However, when they saw the two Qing Luan birds lying on the ground, the doubts in the hearts of several loose cultivators disappeared.

  It's no wonder that they died because of the two Azure Swallow birds. With the strength of the two Azure Swallow birds, it's normal to take down a few elders from the Chong Xiao Sect.

  Some people even whispered: "What a pity, it's really too bad that one of them is still alive. If both sides had perished together, that would have been great."

  Although the person's muttering was very low, everyone's cultivation base was high, and even a slight movement of the wind could not escape the ears and eyes of both parties. This guy was good, his muttering was basically no different from shouting loudly.

  However, this person also spoke out the hearts of several scattered cultivators. They didn't mention how disappointed they were. If even Cheng Chi died, then they would have gained two corpses of Qing Luan birds for nothing. This gain was indeed great.

  But now it's different, Cheng Chi is still there. If they have their sights set on the two Azure Phoenix birds, then it's clear that the He family is going against the Chuangxiu Sect. Although scattered cultivators don't particularly fear the Chuangxiu Sect, its power is evident and not everyone is as bold as Zhao Suo.

  However, wealth and power can move people's hearts at any time, let alone when what attracts them is not just wealth but the precious body of a Qing Luan bird. Not to mention the people of Chong Xiao Sect, even if it were the Heavenly King himself, they would be killed without batting an eyelid if they dared to ruin their good fortune.

  It's also unknown who made the first move, but by the time Chong Chi was left hanging in mid-air, the place where he had been healing his wounds had already become a huge pit.

  Duan Fengye was one of the five people in the line who had reached the initial stage of returning to one, and the higher the cultivation, the more worries there were. However, if there were benefits to be gained, their speed of action was also the fastest.

  Duan Fengye didn't know Cheng Chi, but he knew that the emblem on his clothes symbolized Cheng Chi's identity as an elder of Chong Xiao Sect.

  Since he is an elder, it means that Cheng Chi is a cultivator with a cultivation level of at least the initial stage of Returning to One, and his cultivation is not inferior to his own, and may even be much stronger.

  However, after seeing the almost lifeless bodies of Qing Que Lao Lao and Ji Hong Ri Lao Lao, Duan Feng Ye's worries were alleviated. If Cheng Chi's cultivation was really that high, then killing only two Qing Juan birds would not have come at such a great cost.

  So through meticulous analysis, Duan Fengye was quite certain that Cheng Chi's cultivation was only at the initial stage of Returning to One, and even if it was higher, it wouldn't be much higher.

  Duan Fengye, who had always been cautious and careful, finally steeled himself to decide to kill Cheng Chi on the spot. As long as he did it cleanly, he believed that even if the people from Chong Xiao Zong arrived, they wouldn't suspect him, after all, there were too many loose cultivators who entered the Funiu Cave Heaven.

  As soon as Duan Fengye made his move, he went all out, and as a result, Cheng Chi, who was exhausted, spent a great deal of effort to barely block Duan Fengye's attack, and gradually stabilized the situation, even starting to kill the other scattered cultivators one by one.

  In a short while, the other four scattered cultivators died under the Da Jiu Tian Jian Xiang, in a manner not much different from those few Chong Xiao Zong disciples, all under the disbelieving gaze of Duan Feng Ye.

  Only then did Hong Ye ask in surprise: "How is this possible? Are you saying that those Chongxiao Sect disciples were killed by you?"
