Marry the Demon Sect Girl with No Bride Price-Chapter 331 - 136: Doing Our Best, Righteous Path for All
"Xiaowu?"
Qin Gengyun was stunned, and Mo Xiaolan and Si Minglan both looked at Yun Wu in astonishment.
Yun Zhen instead smiled, "I can understand Xiaowu. To us, you are lifelong benefactors; we would not refuse anything you ask of us."
Si Minglan giggled, "Qin Gengyun, doesn’t your beautiful master want the Pure Spirit Body to follow you? She must be happy now, right?"
Mo Xiaolan sat down next to Yun Wu, holding her hand and gently said:
"Xiaowu, in this world, whether mortal or cultivator, regardless of the level of cultivation, everyone should have the right to live freely. You need not sacrifice a lifetime of freedom to repay a favor."
Qin Gengyun smiled, "Mo Xiaolan is right, Xiaowu. Your wish isn’t to be anyone’s tool, is it? What do you truly want to do in the future?"
Mo Xiaolan turned back, and the two exchanged a knowing smile, reminiscent of the understanding they had back in Narrow Rain Lane, when he didn’t speak, yet she knew his thoughts.
Yun Wu looked at Qin Gengyun and Mo Xiaolan blankly, her beautiful eyes slightly downcast. After a long while, she finally said softly:
"I want to take Yun Xing, Yun Yan, and Yun Yu away from Cloud Bamboo Mountain to see the outside world, but I’m afraid I won’t be able to protect them."
"Also, my father wants me to go to the Zhenyang Sect, but I’m worried there are many bad people there too."
After seeing Sheng Tanglian’s tragic death at the hands of Zhenyang, and witnessing the so-called fairy Ye Xiyue, Yun Wu naturally had no good impression of the Zhenyang Sect.
Everyone fell silent.
Mo Xiaolan suddenly asked Qin Gengyun, "What’s your plan next?"
Qin Gengyun replied, "Before my wife went into seclusion, she wanted me to go to the Zhenyang Sect."
Mo Xiaolan asked, "So, do you want to follow her arrangements?"
Qin Gengyun was silent for a moment, then said solemnly, "Five hundred years ago, Zhenyang killed his wife, the True Yang Sect usurped the Cyan Lotus Sect’s position. Now, in the Zhenyang Sect, Ye Xiyue, for her own selfish desires, betrayed her junior sister to her senior uncle."
"And the Guardian Array of Cloud Bamboo Mountain should only be accessible by the Xiyue Peak Master with a Spirit Key, yet Spirit Corpse Mountain opened it easily. I don’t believe this has nothing to do with the Zhenyang Sect."
"As the leading sect of the Righteous Path, it is rife with injustice and corruption. So, I want to go to Zhenyang Mountain to see if it’s all filled with hypocrisy and malice."
"Is so-called righteousness merely a facade?"
"Also, Sheng Tanglian died so tragically, and the Cyan Lotus Sect was wrongly labeled as the Demon Sect. Surely, there’s more to the events of five hundred years ago. I want to uncover the truth of those days and bring justice to the innocent victims."
"If it’s the Righteous Path, it should walk the right path. Even though it’s the Demon Sect, it might not truly be evil!"
His words stunned everyone, and a smile appeared at the corner of Mo Xiaolan’s mouth. She applauded and laughed:
"I benefited from the Colorful Bone, which gave me my cultivation. Although I don’t know if it’s Sheng Tanglian’s remains, I also want to clear her name and rectify the injustice of those times."
"Moreover, I promised Taoist Friend Qiu to accompany you to Zhenyang Mountain. Since you are also interested, we can go together."
Mo Xiaolan continued, "We can first escort Yun Wu and the children to a safe place, let the children settle down, and then head to the Zhenyang Sect together."
Qin Gengyun laughed heartily, "Great, you and I once pledged to drink together upon Foundation Establishment. Our wish can be fulfilled in Zhenyang City!"
The two looked at each other and laughed joyously.
Yun Wu watched them from the side, her face showing envy and yearning:
"Brother Qin, Sister Xiaolan, I want to go to the Zhenyang Sect with you too!"
Mo Xiaolan asked her, "Aren’t you afraid?"
Yun Wu widened her beautiful eyes and said seriously, "With you here, I’m not afraid!"
Qin Gengyun nodded with a smile, "Mountain Master Yun originally entrusted us to take you to the Zhenyang Sect. Now we’re not only taking you but also going to Zhenyang Mountain together to see what’s inside!"
"Alright, it’s settled then. Brother Qin, Sister Xiaolan, you mustn’t leave me behind!"
Yun Wu’s tear-streaked face once again broke into a pure and stunning smile, stretching out her little finger:
"Let’s make a pinky promise!"
Qin Gengyun was slightly taken aback, suddenly recalling the scene on Cloud Pattern Mountain when Xiaoque’Er, he, and Qiu Zhihe made a pinky promise.
Just then, Mo Xiaolan had already extended her little finger, linking it with Yun Wu’s, both girls’ faces displaying flower-like adorable and pure smiles.
It was only then Qin Gengyun remembered, not only was Yun Wu young, but even Mo Xiaolan was only nineteen.
"Still children, after all."
Qin Gengyun shook his head with a smile, extending his little finger to link with the two girls.
"The three of us must clean up the Zhenyang Sect, fight the bad guys, and help the good ones!"
Yun Wu’s voice was clear and unknowing of the vastness of the world, causing amusement but so earnest that Qin Gengyun and Mo Xiaolan exchanged a glance and said in unison:
"Together we will enter the Zhenyang Sect, doing our best to uphold righteousness in the world!"
"Naive!"
A cold voice sounded above their heads. They looked up to see Niantang standing on top of a Firebird, leaving behind these words before the Firebird spread its wings and flew away.
The three exchanged glances, and Yun Wu suddenly laughed:
"Brother Qin, Sister Nian is very fond of you!"
Mo Xiaolan looked at the flaming figure in front, lost in thought.
Qin Gengyun was silent for a moment, then smiled and suddenly asked Si Minglan:
"Taoist Friend Si, will you and Xiaoxue return to the Zhenyang Sect with us?"
Si Minglan chuckled, "You wish to uphold righteousness in the world, but have you thought that Ye Xiyue has been so miserably handled by you? She is the new Xiyue Peak Master. Having offended her, even entering the Zhenyang Sect is questionable, let alone if you can survive, or..."
Her seductive eyes glanced at Qin Gengyun, "Are you really planning to use the Soul-devouring Pill to make Ye Xiyue your servant, to help you enter the Zhenyang Sect?"
Qin Gengyun was momentarily speechless. During the crisis, he hadn’t thought much before throwing the Soul-devouring Pill into Ye Xiyue’s mouth, just to prevent her from causing trouble at the time.
He never intended to truly make Ye Xiyue a servant.
But at this point, Si Minglan’s suggestion was indeed the simplest and most effective way for them to enter the Zhenyang Sect.
Yet Qin Gengyun really disliked Ye Xiyue, fearing that even as a servant, she wouldn’t harbor good intentions.
Si Minglan smiled coquettishly, "What, is having the current fairy warming your bed not to your liking?"
Qin Gengyun quickly said, "Taoist Friend Si, please don’t joke. I have nothing to do with Ye Xiyue!"
Si Minglan giggled, "During that month in the relic, Ye Xiyue entered your room daily, whispering close by. What does that count as?"
Qin Gengyun sighed, "That was due to circumstances beyond our control. We didn’t know it was part of my master’s... design then."
Si Minglan snorted, "Being intimate with two current-day fairies is a dream for many men, yet you act like you’re at a loss."
Yun Wu suddenly said, "By the way, aside from Ye Xiyue and Su Hongling, Sister Si and Sister Xiaolan, did you two also enter that little black room?"
