Don't let Yu Ding take on any more disciples.

Chapter 565 You don't know if Yu Ding is someone you've never been beaten up for...

Shangying, a deserted corner.

boom--

A waterfall cascaded down from the night sky, its cascading waters shimmering with a pure white light under the moonlight. The sparkling water created a magnificent spectacle, like a silver river falling from the heavens, drawing countless soldiers who watched in awe.

No one could see that the waterfall was pouring from a jade bottle that emitted a rosy glow.

In addition, the view from the bottom of the waterfall was not so beautiful, because it all disappeared into a person's mouth.

"Splash... Ugh... Ugh..."

Before long, Tianxu's eyes suddenly bulged out, and he lowered his head, spitting out a puddle of green liquid along with white mucus.

Qiongxiao, that bitch, is serious... Tianxu quickly vomited until his face turned pale. He felt like he was about to throw up his stomach and couldn't hold it in any longer.

Finally, he forced his weak body to walk to a tree for support, his face looking extremely pale. He had initially thought Qiongxiao was joking to scare him, but his body quickly reacted, telling him that this was no joke.

Luckily, he had water he'd brought from the immortal spring on Jade Spring Mountain, which could cure all poisons, otherwise...

"Ok?"

Tianxu was suddenly startled, but he saw that the lawn where he had spat out the water was now radiating emerald green light and full of vitality.

The weeds that had been trampled by the soldiers were now standing upright as if they had been given a magic potion, and they began to spread and grow at an astonishing rate.

"Hey, junior brother, you've got some ideas!"

Qiongxiao walked over with a smile, but was somewhat surprised by the scene before her, knowing that Tianxu had already been dealt with.

Tianxu paused for a moment before saying, "This is not poison!"

Qiongxiao smiled slyly, "Of course not, Senior Sister was just joking with you. This is just a Qingyu Hundred Gallbladder Pill that I carefully concocted. Although it has some side effects similar to poisoning, it also has many benefits..."

She looked at the water on the ground with a regretful expression and said, "What a pity."

"Azure Jade Hundred Gallbladder Pill?"

Tianxu had a bad feeling: "May I ask which one of the hundred courages is it?"

Qiongxiao's eyes lit up as she counted, "Peacock gall, scorpion gall, silkworm gall, six-winged silver centipede gall..."

"That's enough, that's enough. It seems I'm not fortunate enough to enjoy my senior sister's masterpiece."

Tianxu's face turned pale upon hearing this, and he quickly called for a stop. Fortunately, he had previously held a tiny bit of hope for that pill.

At this moment, he was extremely grateful for his decision to have his stomach pumped.

Upon hearing this, Qiongxiao looked at Tianxu and the light in her eyes went out. She sighed with a hint of disappointment.

It seems that even this junior brother doesn't understand her. In the current prehistoric world, only Brother Yu Ding can be considered her true 'fellow Daoist'.

"My older sister told us about what happened a few days ago."

Qiongxiao looked towards Xiqi and said with a smile, "I was right about you back then."

"You've already said it?" Tianxu's mind stirred, wondering how much Senior Sister Yunxiao had said.

Qiongxiao suddenly turned around and asked, "Hey, junior brother, why do you think Yuding is helping us?"

That's a good question... Tianxu raised an eyebrow, a 'wicked' smile flashing across his face.

Immediately, he activated the Azure Sword within his body, forming a cyan barrier around him.

Although a strange look flashed in Qiongxiao's eyes when she saw this, she did not stop him. In her heart, she praised the boy for his thoughtful actions.

Tianxu coughed lightly and said, "Brother Yuding told me that our two sects originated from the same source, and he couldn't bear to see us kill each other. In addition, he greatly admires Senior Brother Zhao's righteousness and couldn't bear to see him suffer. And..."

He seemed hesitant to speak.

Qiongxiao smiled and said, "Hehe, that really sounds like something he would say. What else?"

Tianxu said, "Brother Yuding also said that Senior Sister Qiongxiao is not only of high moral character, but also exceptionally talented, with ideas as boundless as the heavens and the earth, and has made great contributions to the medicine of the prehistoric world."

His admiration for his senior sister—I mean, his adoration—was like a surging river, endless and unstoppable, like the Yellow River overflowing its banks.

Having already said it once, he spoke with even more fluency this time, delivering his lines without batting an eye.

Upon hearing this, Qiongxiao's smile froze, and her narrowed eyes widened in surprise: "What comes before 'admiration'?"

Because Tianxu spoke too fast, she didn't hear him clearly.

Tianxu spread his hands helplessly and said, "That's what Brother Yuding said. I didn't hear it clearly, so I just followed suit. I think it's admiration, or maybe even adoration."

Qiongxiao retorted, dissatisfied, "What do you mean by 'possibly'?"

Tianxu analyzed, "Senior Sister, even if Brother Yuding said he admires you, I think that besides admiration, he might also have some feelings of affection for you. Otherwise, why would he take such a big risk to deal with their people?"

If he had a hat, he would feel like a cunning strategist from a movie.

Qiongxiao stood there stunned, and two peach blossoms immediately appeared on her cheeks.

Tianxu couldn't help but chuckle inwardly when he saw this. Qiongxiao noticed his gaze and her expression tightened. She flicked her sleeve, turned around, and snorted, "Brother Yuding and I are fellow Daoists who have become friends because we share similar interests. Don't talk nonsense."

Tianxu honestly said "Oh".

Qiongxiao was about to leave when she suddenly stopped after taking a few steps. Without turning her head, she said, "You are not allowed to say a word of what you just said to anyone else, or your senior sister will have something really good for you to try."

Upon hearing this, Tianxu almost vomited again, and quickly said with a blank expression, "What did we just talk about? No one came looking for me tonight!"

Clever... Qiongxiao was about to leave when she was blocked by the barrier. Just as she was about to speak, Tianxu wisely dispelled the barrier.

Tianxu revealed a subtle smile as he watched Qiongxiao's retreating figure as if she were fleeing.

You're a liar! Ugh, you help me, I'll help you, Yu Ding, this is all I can do to help you.

Qiongxiao walked quickly until she was far away before slowing down. She breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that no one was around. For the first time, she, who was usually very clever, lost her composure.

As she said, Yu Ding had always been a fellow Daoist she considered to be of similar interests. Their relationship was simple, and she had never thought of anything else.

"Tianxu must have misheard. Yes, that must be it."

A glint of light flashed in Qiongxiao's narrowed eyes: "Brother Yuding is a renowned sword immortal who is famous throughout the prehistoric world. How could he say such a thing?"

She composed herself before heading to the large tent where she was resting, but her previously calm state of mind seemed to be slightly disturbed.

Originally, Wen Zhong had hosted a banquet for the six female immortals to welcome them and wash away the dust of their journey, which lasted until late at night.

At this time, the large tent was used for Yunxiao and the other six female immortals to rest.

"Second Sister, how is that kid Tianxu doing? Is he in a terrible state?" Bixiao asked with a smile.

Qiongxiao smiled and looked at everyone: "This kid is indeed worthy of being Master's last disciple. He has some skills. When I arrived, he mistakenly thought he was poisoned, but he had already used the Immortal Spring water to wash his stomach and remove the effects of the medicine. He is already fine."

"Flushing and purging the stomach..."

Bixiao was stunned, and even Shiji and the others exchanged bewildered glances. This was the first time they had ever heard of such a method.

The next day, the six female immortals left the camp together. Grand Tutor Wen and Qiu Shou Xian were in charge of the procession. They also ordered Deng, Xin, Zhang, Tao, and Zhao Gongming's disciple Chen Jiugong Yao Shaosi and his own disciple Ji Liyu Qing to protect them from the front and back.

The Three Immortals rode divine birds into the sky, and Yunxiao called out loudly, "Where is Fellow Daoist Yuxu? Come and see me!"

On the reed hut, all the immortals had heard the sound and exchanged glances.

Ran Deng stood up and said, "I'll go take a look."

His sika deer was cut in two by Zhao Gongming with his golden dragon scissors, so he had no choice but to ride the clouds to the reed hut and bow in respect.

Bixiao rebuked, "Randeng, I, Biyou, and you, Yuxu, are of the same lineage. Why did you collude with the demon Lu Ya and use the Seven Arrows of Nailhead to almost kill my brother?"

“Your words are incorrect, fairy. The phoenix sings in Qishan, and the mandate of heaven returns to Zhou. Ziya follows the mandate of heaven and assists the true lord. Zhao Gongming does not understand the will of heaven and goes against the heavens. He relies on his Taoist arts to come to Xiqi to show off his strength and make things difficult for Ziya. He has injured eleven people, including Guangchengzi.”

Ran Deng said, "Those who defy Heaven have always perished. Fortunately, Fellow Daoist Lu Ya offered his skills to help us. Even if he dies, it is Heaven's will. Why should we blame anyone? We cannot be blamed for his current retribution."

He glanced at the three immortals and said, "Furthermore, this place has now become a land of war and violence, and it is not advisable to stay for long. I think you have not been here long, so you might as well leave as soon as possible to avoid any misfortune."

Bixiao sneered, "Absurd! I knew you, Randeng, were a silver-tongued man. Seeing you today, I can confirm it's true. You say my brother is just showing off, but now he's on the verge of death. Wasn't it you who first bullied our Jie Sect?"

Yunxiao stopped Bixiao, staring at Randeng and said, "We've come here today for nothing more than to demand the Arrow Book and the straw effigy to revive my brother. If you return it, we'll leave now and won't cause you any more trouble after saving my brother. If you don't..."

She didn't say anything more, but everyone understood.

After a moment's thought, Ran Deng said, "Please forgive me for not being able to agree. Zhao Gongming went against the will of Heaven and injured my Yuxu disciples. He has suffered this calamity because his fate has run out. He has only himself to blame and has no one else to blame!"

It was very annoying. When He saw that his treasure for achieving enlightenment was in Zhao Gongming's hands, He knew that he had become a part of the Heavenly Dao's scheme.

There was no other way; the struggle for enlightenment was one that could not be compromised. Now that things had come to this point, neither He could allow Zhao Gongming to live, neither for the public good nor for personal reasons.

Upon hearing this, Bixiao was furious. With a wave of her hand, a celestial sword with a green bamboo hilt appeared in her hand and she charged toward Randeng.

Ran Deng didn't take Bi Xiao seriously, but Yun Xiao was watching from above. Not daring to be careless, he extended his right index and middle fingers together and touched the immortal sword in Bi Xiao's hand, producing a metallic clang and easily deflecting the immortal sword.

In less than three rounds, Bixiao's eyes suddenly flashed, and she pushed her hand towards the sky. A golden light flew into the sky, and as it was raised by the wind, the golden light surged and shone as brightly as the sun, making it difficult to look directly at it.

"The Primordial Golden Cauldron?!"

Ran Deng had already seen the treasure ascending into the sky when Bi Xiao sacrificed it. He cried out in surprise, knowing the power of this treasure. Without further ado, he turned around and transformed into a streak of light, arriving on the reed hut before the treasure could display its power.

Seeing that Randeng had run away, Bixiao raised her hand to put away her magic weapon and gritted her teeth, saying, "That cunning old fox, he ran fast."

This was the first time she had failed since she began using her treasure to fight the enemy.

Yunxiao stared at Lu Peng and said, "I'll say it again: we've come here today for nothing else but to ask for the Arrow Book and the straw man to save my brother. If you return it, we'll leave now and won't make things difficult for you after saving my brother. If you don't return it, we definitely won't let this go."

Ran Deng came to the awning to meet everyone.

Cihang frowned and said, "What a magnificent Hunyuan Golden Cauldron! Even the teacher almost got into danger."

To avoid affecting morale, Randeng, who had safely 'evacuated,' said indifferently, 'That's all!'

However, He was also relieved that it was a close call. If He had been even a little slower, He might have been taken away by the Hunyuan Golden Cauldron.

Apart from Yu Ding and Huang Long, everyone else frowned.

Guang Chengzi frowned and said, "Teacher, now the Three Immortals are blocking the pavilion demanding the Arrow Book, what should we do?"

Ran Deng pondered for a long time without speaking, inwardly cursing Lu Ya for being such a scoundrel.

They promised to come and kill Zhao Gongming on the 21st, but it's already the 23rd, where is he?

Just then, a voice suddenly rang out: "Then why don't you just return it?"

Everyone looked and saw that these words came from Yu Ding.

Randeng frowned, but before he could speak, Julusun said in a deep voice, "What else? You saved Zhao Gongming and now you're our enemy? You want to beat us up again? Yuding, did you not know how humiliating it was to be beaten down last time because you hadn't been beaten before?"

Uh, I really don't know... Yu Ding pondered in silence, after all, he had never been defeated by Lao Zhao.

Upon hearing Ju Liusun's words, everyone's expressions turned rather unpleasant.

Guang Chengzi's face darkened: "Junior Brother Ju Liusun is right, we cannot return it!"

Then, Chi Jingzi, Cihang, Grand Master Lingbao, and others all spoke up, saying, "We cannot return it!"

They were utterly humiliated by Zhao Gongming, who had defeated eleven of them in one fell swoop, causing them, their sect, and their master to lose face. At this moment, they all wished Zhao Gongming were dead.

In the end, only Taiyi and Huanglong remained.

Taiyi looked at the jade cauldron and pondered, then said, "Junior brother, I know you always have your own ideas, but this time I can't listen to you. This really can't be returned."

When Randeng saw Taiyi speak, he breathed a sigh of relief. Taiyi had always been on good terms with Yuding, and even Taiyi said so, which showed that Zhao Gongming was hated by many.

Yu Ding shook his head and insisted, "This can really be repaid, Senior Brother, you have to believe me."

Returning the arrow letter means that even if you can't escape the Nine Turns Yellow River Formation, at least the Three Immortals will go easy on you.

Taiyi remained silent and looked at Huanglong, and everyone's gaze fell on Huanglong.

Huang Long glanced at everyone and then at Yu Ding. He was also indignant because he had been beaten by Zhao Gongming and wanted to kill that bastard Zhao Gongming.

But seeing Yu Ding still insisting, the words caught in her throat, and she tentatively suggested, "Why don't we listen to Yu Ding and return it?"

Taiyi frowned and said, "If Zhao Gongming comes again then, will you be able to deal with him?"

Huang Long shrank back and looked at Yu Ding. He really couldn't beat Zhao Gongming.

Yu Ding said, "Just now, Fairy Yunxiao said that she would leave after returning the money and would not make things difficult for us in the future."

Taiyi frowned and said, "Her words contain a trap; they only represent them, not Zhao Gongming..."

Everyone nodded in agreement; Taiyi's analysis was indeed reasonable.

Yu Ding stopped talking and simply walked to the side, worthy of having to go through the Nine-Bend Yellow River Formation.

He didn't take Taiyi's words to heart.

Firstly, it's understandable that Taiyi only considered Zhao Gongming's difficulty without having a god-like perspective. In a battle between two armies, it's reasonable to have doubts about the opponent's words.

The only thing the old lady didn't expect was that after dealing with Zhao Gongming, there was an even more terrifying and difficult-to-deal-with Nine-Bend Yellow River Formation.

Secondly, even without using the Chaos Bell to open his eyes, he knew that Taiyi and the others were all burdened with heavy tribulation energy. Now that their tribulation had arrived, they were bound to be affected, and it was not surprising that they would become less intelligent, impulsive, and easily angered.

time!

Time will tell, proving right and wrong.

The only thing he didn't expect was that Huanglong would still stand with him under such circumstances. He really did have some luck. He could survive until the end of the Investiture of the Gods without any disciples, magic weapons, or battle achievements.

After a brief consideration, Ran Deng immediately ordered Jiang Ziya to lead his disciples to fight against the Three Immortals.
