Chapter 465 Severing Relationships
Chapter 465 Severing Relationships
After Qingyun left, Bailu couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
Although she and Qingyun came from the same year of the sword selection, the pressure Qingyun put on her was no less than that of some seniors who had been famous for many years.
"So this is the real Qingyun!" Thinking of the frail girl in the ancient forest, Bai Lu couldn't help but smile bitterly.
Just then, someone hurried up to his side and whispered in his ear, "Guanbi is back."
"What! Where is she now? Take me there quickly!" Bai Lu was overwhelmed with excitement.
She was prepared to never see Guanbi again, but Shen Xu actually brought Guanbi back to her.
But the thought of the constantly breaking and reconnecting star thread between him and Shen Xu filled her with endless worry.
Tianhe Sword Pavilion.
Guan Bi looked around and saw that all the Tianhe Elders were present. He immediately bowed and said, "Greetings, Sect Master and Elders. I would like to ask if Shen Xu has returned?"
Guan Bi asked impatiently.
"We also want to ask you this question: why didn't Shen Xu come back with you?" Deng Yi asked back, frowning.
"What!!"
Guan Bi's face turned deathly pale instantly, and he staggered, almost falling backward to the ground.
“Jiaojiao! Yes! Jiaojiao! Where is Jiaojiao?” Guanbi asked immediately.
Seeing Guan Bi's condition, everyone immediately had a bad feeling.
"Jiaojiao went to the Feather Clan Temple shortly after you went to Thunder Pool, and she hasn't woken up yet, so we can't determine Shen Xu's condition through Jiaojiao."
"Guanbi, tell us, what exactly did Shen Xu encounter in the Thunder Pool Secret Realm?"
"You're all lying to me! I'm going to see Jiaojiao in person!" Guan Bi shouted hysterically.
"Guanbi!!"
"I can assure you that Shen Xu is still alive!" At this moment, Bai Lu slowly walked in from outside the door and hugged Guan Bi.
"Miss!" Guan Bi's vision blurred.
"Please tell me what happened."
Feeling the warmth of Guan Bi, Bai Lu immediately felt at ease. No matter what happened to Shen Xu, all she wanted was for Guan Bi to come back.
"Miss, is Shen Xu really still alive?" Guan Bi asked, her voice choked with emotion.
“I have practiced the cultivation technique left by my mother, and the connection between him and me in terms of destiny has always been there,” Bai Lu comforted softly.
"Then why can't I find him?"
“You know him, he must be hiding somewhere, somewhere, and doesn’t want to have anything to do with us anymore. Shall we go find him together?” Bai Lu gently patted Guan Bi’s back.
"Really?" Guan Bi broke free from Bai Lu's embrace and looked into Bai Lu's eyes.
"Of course, I lied to you when."
"I must find him." Guan Bi said, as if making a promise to Bai Lu, or as if making a guarantee to himself.
"Okay!" Bai Lu said with a smile.
……
"You mean the Ling family went to fake Thunder Pools before, so they all fell into them?"
"Shen Xu entered the True Thunder Pool from the beginning and cleared the way for you, so you were able to enter the True Thunder Pool unharmed to subdue Xuan Ting," Deng Yi said, his words filled with astonishment.
He never expected things to develop in such a bizarre and unexpected way.
“I did not subdue Xuan Ting, but killed it,” Guan Bi said coldly.
Upon hearing this, no one was particularly surprised; no one would keep an enemy by their side.
“Xuanting deserved to die, but what about Tianhe after…” Deng Yi asked cautiously.
"I will leave the Thunder Pool Secret Realm in the Milky Way. The Milky Way will not change after that, except that the Dragon Soul Tide will probably no longer exist."
"It's alright, it's alright!" The elders all laughed and tacitly avoided mentioning the ownership of the Thunder Pool Secret Realm.
"By the way, the Sword Master told you to go see her immediately after you return."
"I think you and Bai Lu should set off soon, otherwise Sword Master will blame us for not doing things well," Deng Yi reminded him.
"Sect Master, Lord Qingmu has already left the Tianhe Sword Sect," Bai Lu said.
"I see.
Don't forget to take Jiaojiao with you; it might reveal Shen Xu's whereabouts after it returns.
"Then, Sect Master, I'll return to the Sword Alliance with Guan Bi."
Also, please ask Elder Jiang to tell Qi Qi for me that I will definitely bring Shen Xu back to her side safely.
"Okay! Remember to be careful on your journey." Jiang Xunxue nodded slightly.
After the two left, an elder immediately asked, "Judging from what Guan Bi said, she seems to have the ability to take the Thunder Pool Secret Realm away. Is she really alright?"
"The Thunder Pool Secret Realm was never something left to the Tianhe Sword Sect by our ancestor. Guan Bi's willingness to leave it behind is already a way of repaying us."
From this day forward, no one is allowed to mention this matter.
"Don't forget how we treated the Ling family back then," Deng Yi said coldly.
……
"Guanbi, you have completely surpassed me now." Bailu smiled as she felt Guanbi's solid aura and the slight pressure it exerted on her.
"With your talent, Miss, you will surpass me sooner or later."
“You don’t need to be modest. Although I don’t know what your family has been pursuing in the Thunder Pool Secret Realm, Guanbi, you are now far beyond what I can compare to.”
"Miss!
It's unbelievable that Ling Hai's descendants have fallen so low as to serve as slaves. I wonder if Ling Hai himself would be so enraged if he knew this he'd crawl out of his coffin.
The skull floated out of the crown-green ring and mocked.
"Where did this evil spirit come from!" Bai Lu took a step back and immediately became alert.
“Miss, Senior Lei is a friend of our ancestor. Without him, I would never have been able to obtain our ancestor’s legacy,” Guan Bi immediately explained, stepping between the two.
“Senior, without Miss’s family, I would not have been able to survive. I am very grateful to Miss and took care of her voluntarily.”
"What did you say! How could Linghai have such a spineless descendant like you? It would have been better to let Jielong Thorn perish in the Thunder Pool than to give him to a servant!"
"Are you even going to give away the Dragon Thorn to someone else?" the skull said coldly.
"Senior, that's not how it is, I..."
"I have never treated Guanbi as a servant, much less tried to take her things. Don't try to sow discord between me and Guanbi!"
She has always been free.
"If Guanbi is willing, she can leave me and live on her own right now." Bai Lu glared at the skull.
“That would be perfect. I will never allow Guanbi to be your servant.”
"I couldn't ask for more!" Bai Lu said coldly.
“Senior, I will not leave Miss.” Guan Bi shook her head.
"Who told you to leave her? I just didn't want you to be this brat's maid, otherwise I would have left with the Dragon-Slaying Thorn." The skull's soul fire was full of seriousness.
"Guanbi, I don't know what the Dragon Thorn is, but it must be very important to you."
I've said it so many times, I don't want to be your mistress, I want to be your friend.
"Do you still want to be my maid in this situation?" Bai Lu stared into Guan Bi's eyes, keenly sensing that this was an excellent opportunity to sever ties with Guan Bi as master and servant.
“Miss, your word doesn’t count. I hope the Sword Master will be the witness.” Guan Bi looked into Bai Lu’s eyes and then took out a transparent crystal ball.
Bai Lu took the crystal ball in a daze, staring at the illusory figure of the young man inside, and murmured in disbelief, "Father..."
