"Go in!"

"Slam!" Under the escort of several strong men from the War Mansion, Lu Tianyu was roughly thrown into the dark and damp dungeon.

"Ah!" Already severely injured, Lu Tianyu couldn't help but let out a painful cry. Looking around, he found that the dungeon where he was imprisoned was extremely small, only a few square meters, making it difficult even to turn around.

"Alas, I never thought that just after becoming an inner disciple of the Flowing Cloud Sect, I would suffer such a disaster. Who could it be? Who used such despicable and shameless means to harm me?" Lu Tianyu inwardly lamented his bad luck, and two figures quickly flashed through his mind: Wang Aotian and Li Xiao.

Apart from these two, Lu Tianyu could not think of anyone else who would want to kill him.

"If I find out who did this, I will tear you to pieces!" Lu Tianyu gritted his teeth and muttered, then slowly closed his eyes, beginning to cultivate and recover in the dark dungeon.

...

With the help of her master Hu Lijuan, Xiaoyu slowly returned to her room.

But the pain in her lower body still lingered, and a trickle of blood slowly flowed down her leg, soaking her newly changed clothes.

"Xiaoyu, quickly lie down and rest. You shouldn't get out of bed for the next few days. If you need anything, just let your master do it for you," Hu Lijuan said with concern, helping Xiaoyu slowly lie down on the bed.

"I understand, Master," Xiaoyu nodded, her eyebrows slightly furrowed.

"Xiaoyu, Grandfather will immediately send people to capture Xiaoyue. You rest well. Sister, I'll trouble you," Zhan Longxing stood by the bed, staring at Xiaoyu with pain for a moment, then slowly said.

"Okay, go, Senior Brother. I'll take care of Xiaoyu, don't worry," Hu Lijuan nodded.

Zhan Longxing moved and quickly left the room, closing the door behind him. Seeing him leave, Hu Lijuan quickly ordered a maid to bring a basin of water and carefully helped Xiaoyu wash up.

After washing, Xiaoyu changed into a clean dress. Seeing her still pale face, Hu Lijuan couldn't help but sigh with pain. She had heard from Zhan Longxing about Xiaoyu's condition with the Nine Yin Meridian, and never expected this poor girl to suffer such a disaster.

Time passed quickly, and it was already noon the next day. After a day and a half of careful treatment, Xiaoyu's complexion had become much rosier, and the pain in her body had gradually disappeared, allowing her to勉强下床活动了。

“师父，请问陆天羽现在怎么样了？”小玉终于按捺不住，望向坐在床边照顾自己的师傅缓缓问道。

“哎，玉儿，你这傻丫头，那小子到底有什么好的，他都这么伤害你了，你还惦记着他？”胡丽娟当然知道玉儿说的是谁，立刻幽幽一叹。

“师父，我想了很久，昨日之事，不怨他，应该是丫鬟笑儿在糕点内做了手脚，才使得他那般对我的，所以，此事不能完全怪他的。”小玉立刻解释道。

“到底是不是笑儿做了手脚，此事尚不可知，还是等你爷爷抓住笑儿再下定论吧。”胡丽娟立刻道，她要的不是猜测之词，而是事实真相。

“恩，也只好如此了。”小玉闻言点了点头，神色疲惫地将头靠在了枕头上，准备再闭目休息一会。

可还未等她的眼睛闭上，外面突然传来一阵急促的敲门声。

胡丽娟迅速从椅子上站起，奔至门前将房门开启，见到来人正是战龙星。

“师兄，怎么样？抓到人了吗？”胡丽娟立刻急促地问道。

“笑儿已经被人杀死了！”战龙星闻言，顿时脸色阴沉地答了句，缓缓走进了房间。

“爷爷，笑儿是被谁杀死的？”善良的小玉听到这个消息，双目立刻睁得老大，不敢置信地追问起来。

“我不知道，听守护后门的护院说，昨天笑儿去了一趟府后的树林，便再也没有出来。爷爷去了后面树林仔细搜索了一遍，只见到地上一滩血水，利用神念探查一遍后，其内隐隐有着笑儿生前的气息，由此可见，她应该被人杀人灭口了。”战龙星闻言，顿时详细地解释道。

“这么说，师兄你已经相信是笑儿那丫鬟在糕点内做了手脚，这才导致昨天的悲剧发生了？”胡丽娟立刻反问道。

“恩，我已相信六成，但如今笑儿已死，可谓是死无对证，想要弄清事情真相，那就更难了。”战龙星不由长叹了口气。

“爷爷，若是笑儿被人杀了灭口，那绝对可以证明，天……天羽哥哥是被人阴谋陷害的，你快放了他吧。”小玉思索片刻，立刻斩钉截铁地说道，不知为何，她就是相信陆天羽，不会无故伤害她，现在听到丫鬟笑儿被人杀死灭口之事，就更为确信自己的想法了。

“不能放。”谁料胡丽娟闻言，却是立刻提出了反对意见。

“为什么啊？师父，虽然笑儿已死，无法找她查问真相，但种种事迹无不证明，天羽哥哥是被人陷害的，为何不能放他？”小玉闻言，顿时焦急地说道。

“玉儿，你傻啊，你是女孩子，如今吃了这么大的亏，若是就这般轻易将陆天羽放了，那你日后还如何见人？所以，依我之见，现在最好的办法，便是将陆天羽带来，给他两个选择，一是要他负责，娶你为妻，若是他不答应的话，那么，此人绝不能留，要立刻将其杀死，方能保全你的名节！”胡丽娟闻言，立刻目露杀机地厉声道。

“这对他不公平……”小玉立刻大声辩解起来。

“不必说了，玉儿，你师父的话很对，爷爷这就去将陆天羽带来，让他做出选择。”战龙星闻言，顿时毫不犹豫地打断了小玉的话，唰的一下子离开了房间，迅速向地牢方向奔去。

不久，全身仍带血迹的陆天羽，被战龙星夹在腋下，迅速带到了小玉的房间，啪的一声将其丢到了地上。

“呃……”陆天羽原本正在地牢中修炼恢复，根本不知道发生了什么事情，便被战龙星带来此地，此刻眼中仍然带着深深的迷惘之色，望向了房中三人。

见到躺在床上的小玉，陆天羽不由心中一痛，愧疚地别过脸，不敢再看。虽说自己是被人陷害，才对小玉做出那等禽兽之事，但事实就是事实，自己还是对小玉造成了极大的伤害，这是无法改变的。

“小玉，对不起……”思索片刻，陆天羽终于鼓起勇气，重新抬头望向小玉，真诚地道歉起来。他知道，有些事，无法躲避，必须面对才行。

“行了，老夫将你带来，并非听你的道歉之词的，现在，我给你两个选择，想活，你就必须对小玉负责，娶她为妻，若是想死，很简单，你直接拒绝就是。”战龙星阴沉着脸，猛的打断了陆天羽的话，厉声喝道。

在他心里，对陆天羽仍存有几分怀疑，因此，说话自是毫不客气。

陆天羽闻言，不由深深地皱起了眉头，他的性子便是这样，吃软不吃硬，听到战龙星此等威胁话语，心里自是极不痛快。

“爷爷，您别逼他了，这件事错不在他。”小玉见陆天羽神色不悦，立刻望向爷爷哀求道。

“玉儿，你就别插嘴了，此事让你爷爷处理吧。”胡丽娟闻言，顿时抓住小玉的手，安慰道。

“老夫将孙女嫁给你，乃是瞧得起你，你别不识好歹，若是你答应此事，那往昔之事老夫便不再追究了，你，仍然是老夫的好徒儿，老夫会将衣钵尽数传授于你，如若不然，那就休怪老夫对你不客气了，怎么做，你自己好好考虑下吧。”战龙星白眉一掀，沉着脸再次重申了一遍。

“就算要让我娶玉儿，也须得我心甘情愿才行，你若如此逼我，那对不起，我不答应。”陆天羽思索片刻，立刻抬头坚定地说道。

“你说什么？混账东西，莫非你以为我真的不敢杀你不成？”战龙星闻言，顿时气得须发直抖，猛然扬起右拳，就欲向着陆天羽脑门顶砸落。

“爷爷，不要……”小玉见状，立刻唰的一下从床上跳下，迅速奔至战龙星面前，拼命地抓住了他的拳头。

“玉儿，这混账东西如此对你，你为何还要护着他？”战龙星虽然气得浑身发抖，但却不敢使力，免得震伤了小玉，只能义愤填膺地怒声咆哮起来。

“爷爷，这件事真的不能怪他，他不答应，也是有道理的，求求您，别再逼他了好吗？您若继续逼他，我就立刻死在你的面前。”话落，小玉立刻松开了爷爷的手，闪电般抓下别在头顶的一支朱钗，顶在了自己的脖子上。

朱钗尖端锋利无比，迅速在小玉那细腻白皙的脖子上刺出一个小小的血洞，鲜血缓缓溢出，沿着她的脖子滑落，瞬间染红了衣领。

“傻丫头，你这是何苦啊？爷爷不逼他就是了，你快放下朱钗，千万别做傻事，爷爷就你这么一个宝贝孙女，你若有个什么三长两短的，那你让爷爷还怎么活啊？”战龙星见状，眼角瞬间滑下两滴老泪，整个人瞬间像是苍老了十岁般，显得异常的憔悴不堪。

“爷爷……”小玉见状，亦是心中剧痛，手中朱钗啪的一声掉落在地，泪眼朦胧地扑进了爷爷的怀中，祖孙俩相拥痛哭失声。

“哎，孽缘啊！”胡丽娟见状，眼中亦是不由泛起一阵水花，暗暗地长叹了口气。
