Chapter 1234 You really want this?
"Sister Baizhuo..."
Li Yuan's lips twitched.
He swallowed back the words that filled him with emotion.
Bai Zhuo, supported by him, turned her head to look at Ning Ruan, who was still holding a painting scroll not far away.
With her injuries mostly healed and her consciousness returning, she naturally knew clearly what had just happened.
"That fellow Daoist... was he the helper you found?"
“Sister Bai Zhuo, she is also my savior.” Li Yuan did not reveal Ning Ruan’s identity.
Although I subconsciously felt that Ning Ruan didn't seem to care about her identity being exposed at all.
But even if it is necessary to expose it, it should be done by the person involved.
Instead of him saying it.
Bai Zhuo didn't ask any further questions and nodded.
"Hel me over."
Li Yuan had no choice but to comply.
In the brief moment she flew over, Ning Ruan had already put the scroll back into her storage ring.
"Thank you for saving my life, fellow Daoist."
Bai Zhuo's voice was still somewhat weak.
But it's basically fine now.
The next step is to cultivate self-restraint.
Her injuries were actually less severe than those of the nine-tailed female cultivator before her.
Ning Ruan nodded. "You seem to have a companion, right?"
Bai Zhuo said, "He'll be fine."
The one most likely to get into trouble is Ri Yuan.
But ironically, he seemed to have the best luck.
Not only did he survive, but he also brought people to rescue her.
"I will remember your great kindness today, fellow Daoist. As long as I am alive, I will repay it at any time."
After a pause, perhaps finding the words somewhat ridiculous, she first tugged at the corner of her lips, "However, fellow Daoist should also know the current situation of our Hundred Flowers Clan. Even if the Hundred Flowers Clan had not encountered any misfortune, the things you gave me, as well as the life-saving grace, are beyond my ability to repay."
She said, "The only thing I can repay is this life. If you need it, fellow Daoist, I can repay it at any time, provided that it does not harm the Hundred Flowers Clan."
"If I asked you to kill the Shadow Clan's king, would you go?" Ning Ruan looked up at her.
Bai Zhuo thought for a moment and then nodded and said, "I will go. However, with my current cultivation level, I cannot give you the result you want for the time being. But if you let me go, I will go even if I cannot kill him."
Their attitude was so sincere that they were practically swearing an oath to the heavens on the spot.
Ning Ruan just had an idea.
Bai Zhuo, who was opposite him, said, "If you don't believe me, I can make a vow to Heaven right now."
Ning Ruan: "..."
"No need."
They really do come from the same clan; they both love to swear oaths.
Moreover, they readily give their lives to others.
“If you really want to repay this kindness, you can do so right now.”
Ning Ruan just finished speaking.
Bai Zhuo then asked, "Who do you want to kill?"
Ning Ruan: "..."
Li Yuan instantly understood, fearing that Bai Zhuo would say something that would kill again, and quickly said, "What our benefactor wants most is our Hundred Flower Soul Essence."
"Sister Baizhuo, if you have any of these, you can give this to me first."
Bai Zhuo: "?"
She didn't really believe that at first.
The essence of a hundred flowers is indeed a good thing, but in terms of value, how could it possibly compare to what was used to save her?
But she still took it out.
The quantity is much greater than that of Liyuan.
"You really want this?"
Even after she took it out, she still couldn't believe it.
I'm even starting to feel a bit disoriented about the world.
When did their Hundred Flower Soul Essence become so popular?
Ning Ruan demonstrated through her actions that she really wanted it.
They carefully placed the essence of a hundred flowers, which was mixed with the fragrance of peonies, into a jade bottle.
Looking up at Bai Zhuo, who was slightly taken aback, he said earnestly, "I really want it. If it's convenient, your people can also trade with me."
"Of course, I won't go with you to the Hui ethnic group. I'll leave it to Li Yuan for now."
She herself was also embroiled in trouble, and although she didn't care, she had to consider the current situation of the Hundred Flowers Clan.
"My benefactor, are you... are you going back to the Eternal Realm now?"
Li Yuan looked at her, slightly hesitant, "Wouldn't it be dangerous to go back now?"
Ning Ruan had already put away the jade bottle filled with the essence of a hundred flowers. "What danger?"
"Are you referring to the ten major races, or the Flame Spider Clan?"
Li Yuan: "..." Oh right, my benefactor isn't just a human.
It's still the rumored Ningruan.
Only now did he understand why his benefactor could leave unharmed after severely injuring Long Lingzhu.
She is Ning Ruan!
Then everything makes sense.
“Our benefactor is waiting for us in the Eternal Realm. I will come to find you as soon as possible.”
"No rush, you can have someone bring it to me."
Someone who hasn't been home for a long time, and finally returns only to find their home gone, would definitely want to stay home a little longer at this moment.
Ning Ruan expressed her understanding.
After reaching an agreement, Ning Ruan looked at Bai Zhuo and asked, "That Flame Spider Clan member just said that you are not their target. Do you believe that?"
Bai Zhuo was surprised that Ning Ruan would suddenly ask such a question.
But these words also reignited her almost uncontrollable, overwhelming hatred for the Flame Spider Clan.
What he said might be true.
Bai Zhuo spoke in a hoarse voice, enunciating each word clearly.
"They launched their attack suddenly, without any warning, and without any intention of negotiating with us."
"Before their complete defeat, the elders of our clan tried to negotiate with the Flame Spider Clan, even offering to hand over cultivation resources and the small world, but they refused to agree to a truce and instead..."
Bai Zhuo slowly closed his eyes, his tone slightly somber, "They killed the elder who went to negotiate."
Li Yuan clenched her fists, her whole body trembling as she listened. "They've gone too far."
Bai Zhuo scoffed, "Yeah, who told us to be weak? Even with the Phoenix Clan around, we could still be wiped out so easily."
“Li Yuan, there is no justice or rules in this world. Right now, it is the Flame Spider Clan that is bullying us, and we are powerless to resist. What if it is the Ten Great Races that are bullying us?”
“…” Li Yuan opened her mouth, “The Phoenix Clan…”
"You mean the Phoenix Clan will intervene?" Bai Zhuo's smile grew even more piercing. "The ten races are evenly matched. Would the Phoenix Clan stand against the other nine races for our sake?"
Li Yuan: "..."
Bai Zhuo looked at Ning Ruan and slowly opened his lips, "Does Fellow Daoist have any old grudges with the Flame Spider Clan?"
"No," Ning Ruan said, "I was just asking out of curiosity."
Bai Zhuo: "..." I am indeed very curious.
Don't understand.
But she still said solemnly:
"If there is no old grudge, fellow Daoist, please try not to get involved in this matter."
"In fact, the elders in the clan had long suspected that something was wrong with the Flame Spider Clan. They came with great force, and it is indeed unreasonable to say that our target was us."
"But if it weren't for us, the ambitions of the Flame Spider Clan would be terrifyingly large."
"Although our clan is not good at fighting, due to the distance between the two clans, we dare not say that we know everything about the Flame Spider clan, but we certainly know seven or eight parts."
"It is unusual in itself that they suddenly possess strength that can overwhelm our race."
"Unfortunately..." Bai Zhuo's still pale face was filled with grief and hatred, "Even if we knew it was unusual, my clan was no longer able to investigate."
"A loss is a loss. We're barely able to take care of ourselves right now, and we have to hide when we go out, for fear of running into the enemy who wiped out our clan..."
