White Tiger Sect mentioned marriage again

The next morning, all the leaders of the sixteen peaks of the Vermillion Bird Sect sat in Vermillion Bird Terrace. Zhou Yinyu held a cup of tea in his hand and looked down, considering if he wanted to drink it or not. The whole crowd was silent, no one spoke, and everyone looked at Zhou Yinyu.

Zhou Yinyu held the cup lid in his hand and gently swirled the water in the cup, seemingly not disturbed by the gazes of so many people. After a while, he spoke softly, “I have no objection to the Vermillion Bird Sect marriage with the White Tiger Sect. But I am not interested in participating.” There was no emotion in his words, but his voice was clear and resounding.

“Heh, I have heard that Elder Zhou is devoted to cultivation and not interested in love. I really admire you. But regardless, the fact is that it was you Vermillion Bird Sect who proposed the marriage between the two sects first, let’s talk about that. Although the demon clan’s nest has been destroyed, the demon lord is still on the run. The various forces of the demon clan have also taken the opportunity to rise up and wantonly invade our immortal clan’s territory. You Vermillion Bird Sect are the first to bear the brunt. Apart from anything else, we White Tiger Sect have helped you repel the attacking demon clan recently.”

White Tiger Sect leader Shang Yang was so angry that he blew his beard and glared after hearing Zhou Yinyu’s straightforward refusal. His words were full of threats.

The four major immortal sects of Azure Dragon, White Tiger, Vermillion Bird and Black Tortoise divided the four directions according to the four cardinal directions. The Vermillion Bird was in charge of fire and was located in the south. The White Tiger was in charge of gold and was located in the west. The Azure Dragon was in charge of wood and was located in the east. The Black Tortoise was in charge of water and was located in the north. Since the disappearance of the demon lord, the arrogant demon forces had headed north from the Nether Mountain in the southwest. Vermillion Bird Sect had indeed been frequently disturbed recently. This was a fact.

Zhou Yinyu was too impatient to deal with such things, and he did not fall for Shang Yang’s threats. He glanced at Bai Xiyue who was sitting next to Shang Yang and looking at him. Obviously, she had no objection.

Before he could say no again, Li Yuan interrupted him, “Yinyu, I did not discuss this matter with you in advance. It is indeed that I, as the eldest shixiong, who did not consider it carefully. But now the demons are rampant. The two sects that went to the River of Immortal Souls to find the artifact not only suffered heavy casualties but also returned empty-handed. The Immortal Sects are facing unprecedented challenges. We must now face the outside world in unison.”

Zhou Yinyu rested his arm on the armrest on one side. After hearing what Li Yuan said, he could not help but sneer in his heart. Previously in Spirit Mountain, the two men were testing each other, and Zhou Yinyu did not say anything. Now, the White Tiger Sect people came directly to the Vermillion Bird Sect, and Li Yuan said this in front of so many peak masters.

“The headmaster said that the four sects should be united in this situation. But I don’t think marriage is necessary to fight against the demons. There is no connection.” Zhou Yinyu said softly without giving any face.

He really didn’t understand what the two were doing. Not to mention that marriage was not necessary to fight against the demons, why did Li Yuan have to pick him? He didn’t ask anyone else through the sixteen peaks and directly pointed him out.

Zhou Yinyu didn’t understand, and the other peak masters were naturally also confused. They frowned and talked, and were very unhappy with what the White Tiger Sect said just now.

Kui Budu couldn’t hold it back any longer and said directly, “Fifth Junior Brother is right. I don’t understand why we have to have a marriage. There has been no such thing since the establishment of the four sects for thousands of years. There is only voluntary marriage. Shidi is unwilling, so whoever is willing can marry.”

Nan Ziqi laughed suddenly. Seeing that the two leaders and Bai Xiyue on the high platform looked unhappy, he quickly said, “Sorry, I couldn’t help it. You continue.”

Bai Xiyue observed the reactions of the crowd from the side. Seeing that they were so ruthless, he couldn’t help but cover his face and ran out. Vermillion Bird Terrace had so many people, but no one spoke to stop them.

Shang Yang looked at Zhou Yinyu’s face with a hawk-like gaze, and was so annoyed that he repeatedly rubbed his face.

Zhou Yinyu raised his eyebrows and looked at Shang Yang with amusement. It seemed that Duan Jiuqing’s attack was not heavy enough at that time, and he didn’t beat him to the point of being unable to get out of bed.

“Master Shang, I am not talented, and I really haven’t reached the state of transformation yet. Why don’t you teach me a few moves?”

Shang Yang was suddenly choked by Zhou Yinyu. Zhou Yinyu really hadn’t reached the state of transformation yet, but he had seen Zhou Yinyu’s strength. Not everyone could kill two demon lords in a row. Even at his peak, he might not be able to beat Zhou Yinyu.

But being said like that by a junior in public, he was a little embarrassed, and his beard was shaking with anger. “You, you” he kept saying “you” for a long time without saying a word.

“Enough!” Li Yuan shouted angrily, and Shang Yang stopped talking immediately. “White Tiger Sect has come from afar, and my Vermillion Bird Sect sect competition is about to begin. Why don’t you stay in my sect for a couple of days. After the competition is over, we can go to the River of Immortal Souls together.”

Shang Yang cleared his throat, looked at Zhou Yinyu again, and said fine twice. Zhou Yinyu lowered his eyes and had already withdrawn his gaze from the high platform. He was a little curious. Shang Yang and Li Yuan were both the heads of immortal sects. Why did these two seem to be led by Li Yuan? Zhou Yinyu always felt that there was something off everywhere.

As he was thinking with his head lowered, he vaguely heard the sound of a disciple exclaiming outside. Everyone got up and walked out the door in curiosity. Several peak masters were still whispering as they walked whether the demons had attacked, but it didn’t seem like it. The Vermillion Bird Exquisite Formation was not activated.

As soon as Zhou Yinyu walked outside Vermillion Bird Terrace, he saw the scene clearly and his eyelids jumped.

Bai Xiyue was sitting on the ground with her face up in fear, supporting her body with her hands and trembling. In front of her, a big black dragon was slowly approaching her with its head raised and tongue spitting.

Many Vermillion Bird Sect disciples were around, and they all drew their swords to stab the black dragon. But its scales were very hard, so many people couldn’t leave a mark on it. The dragon suddenly appeared in the sect and went straight towards the distinguished guest. The disciples guarding Vermillion Bird Terrace were all panicked.

Li Yuan was faster than Shang Yang, and a palm wind slashed at the black dragon. Zhou Yinyu thought this was not good! He quickly flew forward and dodged with the black dragon.

Duan Jiuqing stared at the woman on the ground with red eyes, and opened his mouth to make an attacking gesture. He didn’t come back to his senses until Zhou Yinyu flew over. His tail quickly wrapped around Zhou Yinyu’s waist, his body coiled around from behind, and his head rested on his right shoulder, still spitting out its tongue in a show of strength, hissing non-stop.

Not to mention Bai Xiyue, even he himself was a little afraid of this guy. Probably because of excessive fright, Bai Xiyue’s eyes rolled up and she fainted.

Zhou Yinyu couldn’t bear it anymore, raised his left hand and slapped the big mouth. Duan Jiuqing immediately calmed down, rubbed in a flattering way, and closed his mouth.

“Close your eyes, don’t open them without my order.” Zhou Yinyu whispered. Duan Jiuqing didn’t understand, moved closer to his shoulder, then closed his red eyes and began to take a nap.

Zhou Yinyu ordered the two attending maids next to Bai Xiyue to help her up and send her to the Yaolao Peak. Turning to explain to everyone, he said, “I’m really sorry for scaring you all. This black dragon is my new spirit pet, and it’s not yet gained sentience. It’s my fault for disturbing you all today. I’ll send it away soon. As for Miss Bai, I’ll go and apologize in person when she wakes up.”

Zhou Yinyu’s words were sincere and he handled the situation very well, leaving no room for criticism.

Li Yuan was a little unhappy that Zhou Yinyu dared to stop him, but seeing him explain and apologize like this, he couldn’t get angry anymore. Shang Yang just stared at Zhou Yinyu’s waist that was entangled by the dragon, changed his aggressive attitude, and said, “It’s okay.” As for the others, there was nothing to say.

Zhou Yinyu bowed and saluted, then left with the black dragon. Kui Budu approached Nan Ziqi and asked quietly, “Ziqi, when did Yinyu like to raise snakes? It’s even so thick!” Nan Ziqi looked forward and shook his head gently. He felt that Zhou Yinyu had changed a lot recently.

Late at night, in a guest building of the Vermillion Bird Sect, there were bursts of tragic sounds from time to time, but they were all blocked by a barrier. There were two pale bodies curled up on the ground, struggling slightly. As the blood on the ground became more and more, one of the bodies finally stopped moving and lost its voice.

The other man knelt on the ground naked, with his fingers digging into his skin. His butt was lifted high, and a man was stepping on his head, sitting on his buttocks and fiddling with his anus that had already turned outward.

Every time it was stirred, he trembled all over and sweated coldly. His eyes faced the corpse that had just died, and he saw a small black and red snake crawling out of the corpse’s back. And in his anus, in addition to a limp penis, there were more than a dozen snake eggs that had been poked into it by a wooden stick.

The young cultivator never figured out how he came here from when he opened his eyes to when he died, and he never had the chance to know more…

Zhou Yinyu went back to Fuyun Hall and found out that there was a hole in the corner of the study. Duan Jiuqing likely escaped from there. It was also his carelessness that he only put up the barrier between the study and the bedroom last night and did not set up a barrier outside. He got up in such a hurry that he forgot to let him out.

Zhou Yinyu turned around and looked at the black dragon coiled on the ground, sighed and said, “Duan Jiuqing, you are so brave. You dare to go to Vermillion Bird Terrace. Have you forgotten how you became like this?”

The black dragon raised his head from the coils, still remembering what Zhou Yinyu had said before, keeping his eyes closed and gently hissed twice. Zhou Yinyu didn’t understand what he meant, but felt that he seemed to be accusing himself.

“I’m going out for a while. You stay here and don’t run around anymore. If someone recognizes you, I can’t save you.” Zhou Yinyu tore away the hem of the clothes that was bitten by him and went out. Duan Jiuqing coiled on the ground and crawled to the door and then stopped moving.

On Yaolao Peak, Bai Xiyue had woken up. Her little face was still pale. The black dragon was too scary, especially the pair of red eyes looking at her with anger. They frightened her, a golden core cultivator, into forgetting to take action.

Zhou Yinyu walked in at this time, “Miss Bai, it was my pet’s fault that you experienced a fright earlier. Here is a bottle of “Rejuvenation Pill”, I hope Miss Bai will accept it.” Speaking of which, this Rejuvenation Pill was also obtained by chance and had been set aside for a long time without being used.

Bai Xiyue’s cheeks were slightly red, looking at the pill in his hand. Female cultivators all knew the effect of this Rejuvenation Pill, which could keep them young and beautiful. A top-grade Rejuvenation Pill was even more rare. The pill bottle had yet to be opened but the fragrance could be smelled.

Bai Xiyue thanked him softly, and then a maid accepted it. Zhou Yinyu saw that she was fine, and was about to turn around and leave, but Bai Xiyue pulled his sleeve and dismissed the maid beside her.

Zhou Yinyu frowned slightly, struggled a little and took two steps back.

“Miss Bai, it is a big deal for female cultivators to form a cultivation bond, and this Zhou is not a good match. I don’t know why Master Shang wants to match the two sects together?” He said, looking at Bai Xiyue with a heavy look.

Bai Xiyue was a female cultivator with a thin face, and she didn’t look good when she heard Zhou Yinyu speak so bluntly. She suddenly began to sob and suddenly knelt on the ground and tried to pull Zhou Yinyu’s clothes, but he cleverly dodged her.

Zhou Yinyu didn’t understand what she was doing, and her brows frowned even deeper when she heard the crying. He was about to reach out his hand to help her, but she begged with tears in her eyes, “Xian-jun, Xiyue knows that you are a good person. Can’t you, can’t you agree to him?”

“Why?” Zhou Yinyu was curious why Bai Xiyue said “him” instead of “father”.

Bai Xiyue just knelt on the ground and shook her head while crying. She couldn’t say anything.

“Miss Bai, if you have some difficulty, then speak. If you don’t say it, no one can help you. This Zhou is even less likely to agree to such a thing based on your tears. If you think it through one day, you can come to me again.”

After Zhou Yinyu finished speaking, he glanced at her, and seeing that she had no intention of speaking, he walked out of the room. He ordered the two maids outside to go in and look after her. Zhou Yinyu walked more than 20 meters away and could still vaguely hear the sobbing behind him. He was even more curious about what unknown secrets were wrapped up in this sect marriage alliance.
