Chapter 288 Are You Still Going to Pretend?
After Dai Junde finished speaking, he told his disciples to get ready, "After you open the sect's protective formation, you will fire arrows to attack any spirit beasts that try to run in."
The disciples responded in unison, "Yes!"
Yu Zhiyue and the others were almost at their limit; if they delayed any longer, their lives would be in danger.
Dai Junde dared not hesitate. He made a hand seal, and the great formation descended. He shouted, "Come in quickly!"
Yu Zhiyue and the others quickly moved towards the sect, where the sect's disciples frantically shot and slashed at the endless stream of ghost jackals.
After some twists and turns, and confirming that they had all entered, Dai Junde was about to close the sect's protective formation when he caught a glimpse of a white figure rushing towards him.
Que Chi: "That is..."
Song Ying recognized him at a glance, "It's Qi Huai! Senior Sister Yun is back too?"
She looked behind the white figure, but didn't see the familiar figure, and her joyful mood quickly turned sour.
When Dai Junde saw that Qi Huai was seriously injured, his heart sank, and he immediately flew out of the sect to meet him.
Que Chi gritted his teeth and said to Song Ying, "Clear the way for us."
"it is good!"
With everyone's help, Qi Huai finally entered the Boundless Sword Sect without any major incidents.
Dai Junde immediately set up the sect's protective formation.
Qi Huai was covered in blood; he was so badly injured that he couldn't even maintain his human form.
"Fox Lord, why hasn't our Senior Sister Yun returned?"
Upon hearing this, Qi Huai struggled to open his eyes, his throat choked with emotion, his voice hoarse, "She...she's in trouble..."
Everyone's face paled several shades upon hearing this. "What exactly happened?"
Dai Junde could see that his injuries were too severe and stopped him, saying, "Don't rush, stop the bleeding first."
Qi Huai was seriously injured; one of the nine tails behind him was cut off, and he was so weak that he could not even stand up.
It took Zhan Miaoyan a full two hours to barely preserve his foundation.
With Qi Huai so badly injured, the sect leader's fate uncertain, and a group of menacing ghost jackals outside, everyone thought it was all over.
The morale of the Wuya Sword Sect was once low.
"Elder, what should we do? Qi Huai's return means they didn't obtain the power of inheritance, so they can't seal the four ferocious beasts..."
The more the disciple spoke, the more frustrated he became. "If we can't even handle these black spirit beasts, what if they are ferocious beasts? Wouldn't we just have to wait to die?"
Dai Junde was also very troubled, and he didn't know what to do in the current situation.
Perhaps the only hope is that those sects can summon all their patriarchs who are in charge.
However, since they didn't participate in the last crackdown, Dai Junde was somewhat lacking in confidence.
He sent Xie Wan a text message: Does your sect have any plans to have the ancestor in charge come forward?
Xie Wan replied quickly: Our ancestor, who was stationed there, hasn't returned since he went out last time. He's probably plotting something with the Xuan Tian Sect and the other sects.
Didn't they come back?
Dai Junde was somewhat puzzled, but he didn't see them make any moves.
They didn't even try to protect the human world.
He felt inexplicably uneasy, especially after hearing Qi Huai's story the next day, this unease was amplified.
"You mean, Que Yu betrayed his side at the last minute?"
Qi Huai shook his head.
He couldn't transform yet, lying on the bed, his voice still hoarse and dry, "It's not that he switched sides at the last minute, it's that he was never on our side from the very beginning."
"How could that be? Didn't he swear an oath to the death?"
Breaking a vow to die will bring divine punishment.
"I don't know the specifics. At the time, he came out with only one unfamiliar man. From his words, I learned that the man was Chaos."
Dai Junde had a look of sudden realization on his face. "No wonder the Ghost Realm has been colluding with ferocious beasts for so long."
After a moment of silence, Dai Junde couldn't help but ask cautiously, "What about Yun Fuzhao?"
He didn't ask her right away at first, partly because he was avoiding the question, afraid of hearing an unacceptable answer.
Qi Huai lowered his head, his fox ears drooping, as if he were afraid of something, and said in a very soft voice: "Que Yu said that Chaos killed her..."
"..."
Dai Junde staggered back half a step, his face turning deathly pale in an instant. He asked incredulously, "He's lying, isn't he?"
"I don't believe it either."
Qi Huai raised his head and looked at Dai Junde. "She's so capable, how could she just die like that? She'll definitely make a comeback, right? She's always been like that."
Dai Junde pursed his lips, as if his spine had been bent under the weight of the weight, and he visibly aged several years. "Yes, yes, that girl Yun Fuzhao has the most tricks up her sleeve, she'll definitely be safe and sound!"
Suddenly realizing something, Dai Junde exclaimed, "She can't die! She can't die! She took the Nine-Turn Resurrection Pill!"
Qi Huai's eyes lit up. "Really?"
"That's right, this pill will save her life, even if she's completely dead!"
Qi Huai's tense nerves finally relaxed, and he kept praying in his heart that she would be alright.
"Once I'm healed, I want to go to the miracle again."
"what?"
Qi Huai said firmly, "Go and bring her back."

ghost world.
"Is this the power of inheritance?"
Taotie examined the thing closely, "It looks pretty delicious."
Taotie punched him expressionlessly, "Eat, eat, all you ever think about is eating!"
Taotie covered its head, looking defiant. "If you hit me again, I won't be so polite!"
"Oh ho, you've gotten bold, daring to talk to your elder brother like that?"
Seeing that the two were about to fight, Shang Ji quickly intervened to smooth things over, "Alright, we're all brothers. Let's think about how to deal with this."
Qiongqi: "Is there any need to discuss it? Of course, we should just destroy it. Otherwise, why would we wait for those cultivators to use it to seal us?"
Taotie disagreed, "Why destroy it? This is the power of an ancient true god. Tell me, can we use this to go to the upper realm?"
Shang Ji was very interested. "There might still be some bad guys up there who reinforced our seal."
Just then, Que Yu, who had been ignored, spoke up with a smile: "My lords, didn't we agree that if I helped you obtain the power of inheritance, I would get half of it?"
Taotie glanced at him lightly, "You little ghost, you dare to negotiate with us?"
Shang Ji laughed, "You know, we ferocious beasts are never the kind of people who keep their promises."
Que Yu's smile gradually froze, but he quickly composed himself and said respectfully, "I have spoken too much."
He paused, as if curious, and asked, "What do the adults plan to do with that dragon?"
Shang Ji said nonchalantly, "Of course, we'll pluck the dragon's scales, extract its tendons, and drink its blood. His ancestors have oppressed us for centuries, so we naturally have to take it back from them."
Que Yu calmly drank a cup of tea. "In that case, he has only himself to blame."
After seeing off the four plague gods, Que Yu strolled leisurely towards his bedroom. He turned a mechanism on the bookshelf, and another wall began to rotate.
He walked into the pitch-black tunnel.
After walking for a while, the view suddenly became bright and open. In the very center of the secret room stood a huge jade bed.
On the jade bed, which was emitting a chill, lay a woman quietly.
Que Yu looked down at her, “They said they would pull out the dragon scales, extract the dragon tendons, and drink the dragon blood. How could they treat your precious spirit beast like this, Yun Fuzhao…”
A smile played on his lips as he slowly leaned down, his voice soft: "Are you still planning to pretend to be unconscious?"
