The Immortal Wife Is Like A Cloud

“Girl, you might not want to hear my explanation anymore.”

“But I still want to explain myself.”

“I truly appreciate that young man.”

“From the moment I attacked him until now, I never intended to kill him.”

“Otherwise, do you think with my strength, he could have escaped this far?”

As he spoke, the black-clothed man scratched his head.

He continued, “I just overlooked the existence of this gorge and didn’t expect him to be so tenacious, able to make it here.”

“But even if he jumped down from here, it doesn’t necessarily mean he’s dead.”

“Maybe he’s hiding in a place I couldn’t find.”

As he spoke, the black-clothed man was clearly trying to please Luo Yuebai.

Hearing this, Luo Yuebai’s heart wavered slightly.

She slowly released his collar.

She suddenly remembered a peculiar place at the bottom of the gorge where Su Jingzhen could be.

That place was real, and even Luo Yuebai herself had difficulty finding it, so it was normal that the black-clothed man couldn’t find it.

However, the small joy in her heart didn’t show on her face.

Luo Yuebai’s face remained filled with anger.

She looked at the black-clothed man with a pained expression and said,

“Third Grandpa, if Su Jingzhen really dies this time, then perhaps this is the last time I’ll call you that.”

“Yuebai knows that you just don’t trust the decisions I make, hence you don’t trust the people I appoint.””

Luo Yuebai’s tone was extremely low.

“I understand this. It’s your right to question my abilities and judgment.”

“But whether to acknowledge someone or not should be my right as well.”

Luo Yuebai’s words were flawless.

Upon hearing this, the black-clothed man’s expression turned anxious.

“No, no, girl.”

“Third Grandpa really didn’t mean it.”

“Third Grandpa just wanted to see how capable the person you chose was.”

“I just went a little overboard when I attacked, that’s all.”

After a pause, he continued, “And it’s all that guy Minglong’s fault. Last time, in the academy on Peach Blossom Alley, Su Jingzhen broke his arm.”

“He came back and exaggerated Su Jingzhen’s strength, so Third Grandpa was just curious.”

These words made Luo Yuebai’s heart stir again.

She knew that the Evil Moon Sect had sent someone to test Su Jingzhen before.

But she didn’t know who made the move, let alone that Su Jingzhen had broken the other party’s arm.

Her heart was increasingly surprised.

Luo Yuebai’s beautiful face remained stern: “In any case, I’ve already said before.”

“If Su Jingzhen dies, then I will no longer call you Grandpa.”

“Leave. I don’t need you to help me search.”

Even though she had her suspicions, she maintained her attitude.

“Girl… you… sigh…”

“Can’t Third Grandpa help you search?”

The old man became anxious immediately.

Before he finished speaking, he flew down the gorge on his sword again.

Clearly, Luo Yuebai knew how to threaten.

Seeing his anxious figure, a cunning glint appeared in Luo Yuebai’s eyes.

As she listened to the black-clothed man say that there was no sign of Su Jingzhen’s body at the bottom of the gorge, Luo Yuebai was almost certain that Su Jingzhen had entered that mysterious domain.

She was putting on this act to show the old man how much she valued Su Jingzhen.

In a way, it was to solidify Su Jingzhen’s future position within the Evil Moon Sect.

By making a fuss, once Su Jingzhen returned, the old man would inevitably compensate him.

Luo Yuebai knew that as long as this old man acknowledged Su Jingzhen, his position in the Evil Moon Sect, at least in the Linjiang branch, would be unshakable.

The situation had already unfolded, and this was the only way Luo Yuebai could make amends for Su Jingzhen.

She took another look at the brutal battlefield and the large patch of blood on the cliffside.

Her heart filled with worry.

She descended into the gorge on her fan to search.

From the battle scars, it was clear that even if Su Jingzhen wasn’t dead, he was likely severely injured by this old man.

What if he hadn’t managed to enter that mysterious domain?

After all, for a cultivator who couldn’t fly on a magical instrument, the chances of falling to their death from such a height were quite high.

…

In the peculiar space filled with endless thick fog,

Su Jingzhen lay there motionless, like a dead body.

He let the dense spiritual energy of the place continuously permeate and nourish his body.

At this moment, his body was covered in wounds, the blood oozing from them had already soaked him, turning him into a man of blood.

Several of his wounds were still emitting green smoke, with a burnt smell lingering.

Such a state could only be described as tragic.

It was almost as bad as the first time he saw Shuang Jiang.

He was in a state of unconsciousness.

Jumping off the cliff had only aggravated his injuries.

Barely holding onto a breath, he managed to escape to this place and then collapsed.

As time passed, the blood from Su Jingzhen’s wounds congealed, forming scabs.

Meanwhile, Luo Yuebai and the black-clothed man she called Third Grandpa searched the gorge inside and out several times.

Ultimately, they couldn’t find any trace of Su Jingzhen.

“Girl, Third Grandpa really made a mistake this time.”

“Don’t be mad…”

“It’s actually a good thing that we didn’t find his body.”

“It means there’s still a chance he might return.”

“Third Grandpa promises you, if that kid survives and returns one day, I will personally take him as my disciple.”

“I will be the first to recognize his position as the Chief Acolyte of the Linjiang branch.”

“Even if you want to make him the Chief Acolyte of the main sect, Third Grandpa will fight for it and make it happen!”

“For this, I swear by the heavens!”

As he spoke, the black-clothed man pointed one hand to the sky and the other to the ground, making an oath.

He kept mumbling to Luo Yuebai, and it was obvious that he really repented sincerely, and he even felt a little aggrieved.

This man was once one of the most notorious demons in Qingzhou.

He killed without reason, and the number of sects he destroyed was not few.

Yet now, unsure if he had accidentally killed a junior, he found himself in such a passive situation.

Only Luo Yuebai could put him in such a position.

If Su Jingzhen or Feng Qingya saw this scene, they would surely be astonished and realize they had underestimated Luo Yuebai’s true identity.

Hearing his various promises, Luo Yuebai scoffed.

“We’ll talk about these things when Su Jingzhen returns.”

“If he doesn’t come back, then what I said before still stands…”

She continued speaking in an emotionless tone.

As her words fell, she immediately took off on her fan.

Handling these old fellows within the sect was something she was very adept at.

Of course, this time she was genuinely a bit angry.
