Chapter 623 No Benefit
"Wait a minute?" The Saint Girl raised her eyebrows and looked at Xuan Yuan Zhenren, "Do you know the inside story?"
"Yes, the other half of the jade is in your hands. You are much older than Shen Yanwen, so you should know more than him."
The Saint Girl tilted her head and stared into Xuan Yuan Zhenren's eyes. "Your superiors probably also have a master who raised you and let you go down the mountain with the jade pendant."
The words were spoken lightly, even like a funny joke, but Ranran knew that the matter about Yujue was very important.
With the Saint's strength and confidence, she never showed fear even when facing Xuanyuan Zhenren. But when she encountered Yu Jue suddenly, the Saint was not only injured, but also uttered the four words "how powerful".
These four words... To be honest, before the incident with Yu Jue, Ran Ran would never have thought that these four words would come out of the mouth of the Saint.
Xuan Yuan Zhenren said with difficulty: "Saint girl, please allow me to take a breath for a moment..."
Ran Ran was even more shocked. The jade pendant caused Xuan Yuan Zhenren to be seriously injured. The injury was so serious that he could hardly even speak!
The Saint Girl laughed out loud, "Look at you, you are so embarrassed."
"You really don't know what your cultivation is like. You just led a large number of people to Wushan. Didn't you ever think about the possibility of losing?"
The Saint Girl put her hands behind her back and said slowly in front of Xuan Yuan Zhenren: "It is said that the older a person gets, the wiser he becomes. Why don't I see this in you, Xuan Yuan Zhenren?"
"How do you manage to be old and stupid?"
The saint girl stopped in front of Master Xuanyuan, leaned forward, and stared at him carefully.
Ran Ran couldn't bear to listen to it anymore in her virtual soul. No one could stand this kind of ridicule. It was too heartbreaking!
Besides, what Master Xuanyuan didn't understand was his own cultivation level, but he was clearly not clear about the Saint Girl's cultivation level.
Zhenren Xuanyuan was the most powerful person in the world in Zhongzhou. Even if he racked his brains, he would never have imagined that a young girl who was still growing up in the Demon Realm had surpassed him quietly.
Even Ranran, an outsider, thought so, not to mention Shen Yanwen who had some understanding of Zhongzhou.
He had heard of Xuanyuan Zhenren's reputation long before he was officially adopted by his master.
The meaning of these four words "leader of the righteous path" has never been limited to cultivation and status, but also symbolizes fame and people's hearts.
Just from the Luo family, it can be seen that the fighting among the seven major sects is definitely fierce.
Madam Hong, with her illegitimate son Luo Pingyang, could actually dominate Luo Jinghua, the legitimate son, in everything in the Luo family. At the same time, Luo Haocang had to continue to train Luo Jinghua as the successor of the Luo family, no matter how much he doted on Luo Pingyang.
Such a contradictory point is enough to give us a glimpse into the struggle between Luo Haocang, the then head of the Luo family, and the entire Luo family.
No matter how much Luo Haocang favors her, the recognized next heir to the Luo family will only be Luo Jinghua, not Luo Haocang;
At the same time, no matter how Luo Jinghua is considered by other members of the Luo family and the outside world to be the worthy heir, it cannot change the fact that Luo Pingyang relies on Luo Haocang's favor to do whatever he wants and even step on Luo Jinghua's head.
Things that seem contradictory actually have their own game plan.
Ranran can also feel the fierceness of the Yun family's struggle from other people's brief descriptions of the Yun family.
However, unlike the Luo family, the Yun family’s struggle is probably an outward struggle because of the special nature of the family being headed by a woman.
As a result, there will be no shortage of open and covert struggles among the seven major sects and even the entire host alliance.
Yes, the Host Alliance is not like the Demon Realm. It has already occupied the high ground of public opinion and is regarded as a reputable and upright sect in people's eyes. It does not have to worry about its reputation at all, so naturally it has more time to engage in these meaningless struggles.
But even in such a turbulent undercurrent, Master Xuanyuan has always firmly held the position of the leader of the righteous path.
At this time, the meaning of the words "leader of the righteous path" is no longer limited to being the best in the world.
Master Xuanyuan at least convinced many people in the seven major sects and even the entire Host Alliance.
Although Shen Yanwen wanted to argue for Xuanyuan Zhenren, what the Saint said seemed reasonable. After all, it was Xuanyuan Zhenren who was wrong to bring a large group of people to Wushan. At the same time, he didn't understand the problem that troubled him:
Why is the saint's cultivation so contrary to common sense?
Shen Yanwen also heard the saint's words about being sick when he was in the virtual soul. To be honest, he didn't believe it.
It’s not that he doesn’t believe the saint or thinks she is lying, but that he feels that these remarks are fundamentally untrue.
Maybe the saint didn't know what was going on, after all, she was so young when it happened.
Did she really define the concept of "sickness" herself? Or was it instilled in her by someone, intentionally or unintentionally, like...
Demon Lord.
Shen Yanwen didn't want to doubt this famous Demon Lord at all. The Demon Lord could be said to be the most human-like leader since the emergence of the Demon Realm, a normal person.
Before him, the Demon Lord of the Demon Realm was a true heretic.
But it was he who brought the saint back from the Wuyuan forbidden area, and it was he who raised the saint.
To say that he had no idea what was happening to the Saint? Shen Yanwen felt that was impossible.
The Demon Lord may know the Saint better than she knows herself.
It was rare for Ranran to have a telepathic connection with Shen Yanwen, but the saint suddenly grabbed Xuanyuan Zhenren's white beard.
"Old man, do you know who you should blame for your current situation?"
Master Xuanyuan was panting weakly, and it seemed that just forcing himself to stand had exhausted all his energy and strength. Even though the saint grabbed his beard and he looked so undignified, and the demeanor of a righteous leader was completely lost, Master Xuanyuan didn't care.
Or rather, he couldn't care.
"…Saint, this will not do you any good."
The Saint was dissatisfied and curled her lips, "Of course I know it's not good for me."
When Shen Yanwen and Ranran heard this suddenly, they thought that the two were talking about the fact that the saint girl had rejected Master Xuanyuan's face in public despite so many people.
Unexpectedly, the next second, the Saint sneered and said, "If you are defeated, don't even think about controlling me."
Only then did Shen Yanwen see that the hand of the saintly lady that was grabbing Xuan Yuan Zhenren's beard was emitting a soft white light, and spiritual power was continuously being transported into Xuan Yuan Zhenren's body like a trickle, repairing his body that was severely injured by the jade ornament.
"If I wasn't curious about what nonsense you could say about Yujue, I wouldn't bother saving you."
The Saint's expression was indifferent, as if saving the opponent was something that did not require any hesitation or consideration.
Taoist Xuanyuan lowered his head with a complicated expression.
Shen Yanwen found it hard to understand, but Ranran once again managed to communicate with the saint.
The saint is just like that, she acts according to her own will.
She could be determined to go against Master Xuanyuan and even the entire Host Alliance because she dislikes him, or she could rescue him because she wants to hear news about Yu Jue from him.
"If you want to live, shut up."
The saint said with a pale face: "Do you know that your body now is no different from a sieve?"
"It's a delicate job to give you spiritual power."
Ranran blinked in her virtual soul.
The difficulty of this should be no less than that of the Saint giving Qin Siyi and Ling.
