Chapter 121 Leave your life behind! Xie Wanning!
Xie Wanning wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth and saw Si Jinchuan and Qin Muyang lying on the ground with their brows furrowed. Without hesitation, she walked towards Qin Muyang.
Although Xie Wanning really wanted to know if Si Jinchuan had tried to assassinate her, she still felt that Qin Muyang's safety was more important.
She connected their consciousness spaces together.
Upon entering Qin Muyang's consciousness space, Xie Wanning recognized that this was the secret chamber where the Pavilion Master of the Black Market resided.
Qin Muyang was sitting at the table with a cup of tea in his hand. When he saw Xie Wanning coming over, he raised his hand and invited, "Miss Xu, would you like a cup of tea as well?"
Xie Wanning cautiously looked around and saw that there were only her and Qin Muyang in the space, and no one else was there.
She asked in bewilderment, "Sect Master Qin, where is your inner demon? I discovered in the magic array that you are trapped by your inner demon."
Qin Muyang had already poured a cup of tea and handed it to Xie Wanning. He chuckled softly, "Miss Xu, look at the room we're in. It's the same place where my curse took effect earlier. My inner demon is simple: it's the thing I've always found hard to let go of the curse."
Xie Wanning took the tea, found a seat, and advised, "Sect Master Qin, the curse has been resolved. You will catch the one who cast the curse sooner or later. At that time, I can help you take revenge. So, put this matter aside for now and don't let your inner demons affect your mind."
Qin Muyang nodded, slowly sipping his tea, but his gaze remained fixed on Xie Wanning.
Xie Wanning sipped the tea slowly. The aroma of the tea filled the air, making one feel as if they were on a misty mountain, feeling the freshness in the air and sweeping away the fatigue in their body.
Qin Muyang was so engrossed in watching that he put down the teacup in his hand.
"Since Pavilion Master Qin is alright, I shall take my leave now," Xie Wanning said, rising to her feet and bowing.
Qin Muyang responded as if waking from a dream, "Okay."
Once Xie Wanning disappeared from Qin Muyang's sight, his eyes gradually turned cold. He looked at a corner of the space and said in a sharp tone, "There's no need to hide. She's gone. You can come out now."
"Oh? Qin Muyang, who's hiding, you or me? Don't get the wrong person." The figure that flashed out from the corner was none other than "Qin Muyang," the "Qin Muyang" who had already fallen into demonic possession.
Qin Muyang paused slightly, then said angrily, "I didn't..."
"No! You are the one who refuses to acknowledge yourself. The once majestic Pavilion Master Qin has always taken what he wanted by force, even if it meant using violence and committing murder."
"Qin Muyang, you should know that you are not a good person. Back then, in order to take over the black market, you wiped out the fourteen friends who had helped you create it, instead of relying on your status as the chief disciple of the Heavenly Mystery Pavilion."
"To be honest, you are not the most suitable candidate to be the first disciple of the Heavenly Mystery Pavilion. You personally killed the disciple who was more talented and from a better family, and took his place to become the senior disciple of the Heavenly Mystery Pavilion."
The inner demon smiled as he watched Qin Muyang's face gradually turn red. He opened his fan and fanned himself slowly, continuing, "Of course, that's not important. What's important is that you've changed. For a woman, you clearly admire her so much, so why are you hesitant to take that step?"
Qin Muyang's eyes dimmed, and he said self-deprecatingly, "She shouldn't be limited to love. She has a more important mission to complete, and I won't become a stumbling block on her path."
Suddenly, Qin Muyang's neck was grabbed, and his inner demon glared with scarlet eyes, which seemed to flicker with fire: "Do you even believe what you say? You just went to the Tower of Destiny, how come you can't even recognize your own heart?"
Qin Muyang's thoughts drifted back to a few days ago.
Before participating in the sect competition, he went to the Heavenly Fate Tower to resolve his doubts.
The Heavenly Destiny Tower is the most mysterious place in the Heavenly Mystery Pavilion. It is said that the Heavenly Destiny Tower was built by the founder of the Heavenly Mystery Pavilion, and it will issue instructions whenever the world is about to face a crisis.
The Heavenly Fate Tower has issued five commands over tens of thousands of years, each of which coincided with future events. Therefore, the Heavenly Mystery Pavilion has always regarded the Heavenly Fate Tower as the most important place, and other sects also pay attention to any news about the Heavenly Fate Tower.
Only the sect leader and his personal disciples can enter the Heavenly Destiny Tower. As long as a certain price is paid, the Heavenly Destiny Tower will answer the questioner's doubts.
Qin Muyang went inside and, after expending all his spiritual energy, asked the question that had been troubling him: "If he were to be with Xu Weilin, would it be good or bad for Xu Weilin?"
The Tower of Destiny responded: Extremely bad!
After receiving the response, Qin Muyang couldn't believe it for a long time, wondering why he couldn't be with Xu Weilin.
However, going against the prophecy of the Heavenly Fate Tower will inevitably lead to terrible consequences. This is the tradition of the Heavenly Mystery Pavilion and the result of practice by hundreds of sect leaders and their disciples over the past ten thousand years.
Ultimately, he and Xu Weilin were not meant to be; it would be better for them to remain friends.
The inner demon looked at the dejected Qin Muyang, punched him hard, and shouted, "Coward!"
Qin Muyang did not resist. He returned to the table, picked up the unfinished cup of tea, and drank it all in one gulp, only to find it bitter.
What exactly is he going to do?
Xie Wanning returned to the magic array, and instead of the expected headache, she felt refreshed and relaxed.
She instantly understood that she would be rejected if she forcibly entered other people's consciousness spaces, but Qin Muyang's consciousness space did not prevent her from entering at all, which was why she did not feel uncomfortable.
Thinking of this, Xie Wanning glanced gratefully at Qin Muyang, only to see Qin Muyang's face grow even paler.
Still can't figure it out? The curse incident had a huge impact on him, and Xie Wanning planned to find another time to counsel him.
Now, Xie Wanning approached Si Jinchuan and connected their consciousness spaces.
Upon entering Si Jinchuan's consciousness space, Xie Wanning saw the tall figure.
The man turned around; it was Si Jinchuan, but he wasn't wearing a blindfold, and his scarlet eyes were fixed on Xie Wanning.
Xie Wanning had seen Si Jinchuan's true face in the Void Secret Realm. Although his eyes, which were the same color as those of a demonic cultivator, startled her, Xie Wanning was certain that Si Jinchuan had not fallen into demonic possession.
She walked over naturally, met Si Jinchuan's gaze, and asked, "Fellow Daoist Si, did you attempt to assassinate 'me' that night?"
Si Jinchuan smirked and raised his voice: "I killed you, so what?"
Xie Wanning was stunned for a moment. She thought it was Ye Qianqian who had attacked her, but she didn't expect it to be Si Jinchuan.
Before Xie Wanning could react, Si Jinchuan suddenly stepped forward, grabbed Xie Wanning by the neck, and lifted her up: "Since you already know that I was the one who assassinated you, I won't pretend anymore."
"Your consciousness has now entered my consciousness space. I can sense that your consciousness is very fragile. If I kill you now, your physical body will surely die as well."
"Since you're here, leave your life behind, Xie Wanning!"
