Chapter 32 Shooting yourself in the foot
Lu Sangjiu's words somehow touched the cold-faced male cultivator. He finally turned his head and looked at her seriously.
She couldn't help but feel happy, thinking that she finally had a reaction, and her hard work was not in vain!
Then, with Lu Sangjiu's eyes full of anticipation, he said the first words he said to Lu Sangjiu: "Ling Jian Zong, you can tell everything clearly."
Lu Sangjiu: "...?"
Her smile froze...what? It turns out that he was not moved by her righteousness, but was trying to rectify the name of Ling Jian Sect?
Good guy, such a good guy, you really deserve to be the first genius of the Lingjian Sect, and you will not forget to protect your sect at times like this!
Hmm...yes, Lu Sangjiu already knows who this person is.
Just now she recognized the sword in this man's hand.
The gods and ghosts gave way, and Feng Changming... One of the four immortal weapons, the Fengming Sword.
Lu Sangjiu had been lucky enough to see this Fengming Sword, so even though it was mostly sealed and still unsheathed, she still recognized it.
A hundred years ago, Lu Sangjiu watched it fall into the hands of Jian Bugui, a disciple of Lingjian Sect.
Now...she, who is familiar with the plot, also knows very well that this sword has been given to his proud disciple by Jian Bugui.
That is, Gu Jue, the most talented person of the Ling Jian Sect in his generation, who was born with a sword heart.
In addition, Gu Jue has another identity, well... he is the male protagonist in Ye Zhiyao's novel.
He and Ye Zhiyao met for the first time in the Qingyu Secret Realm, experienced various emotional entanglements, and finally ascended to the fairy world together.
Apart from Ye Zhiyao, he is the only person in this world who has the luck to ascend.
But compared to Ye Zhiyao, a true son of luck, Gu Jue's luck is more likely to be because Ye Zhiyao chose him.
If Ye Zhiyao is Tiandao's biological daughter, then Gu Jue is just a son-in-law and an outsider after all.
When Ye Zhiyao likes him, everything goes smoothly for him.
When you don't like him, he is no different from other living beings.
This is the tragedy of being manipulated by heaven... as if they are not living people, but only exist to serve Ye Zhiyao.
Because of this, Lu Sangjiu always only regarded Ye Zhiyao as his enemy.
She didn't have any ill intentions toward Gu Jue, but she didn't have the leisure to change his fate.
After all, she could hardly take care of all the villains and cannon fodder in her sect, so how could she have the time to worry about the lives of others?
It was only now that Lu Sangjiu had come across a ready-made opportunity, that Lu Sangjiu felt that he could make a presence felt in Gu Jue's place in advance.
Now Gu Jue would be arrested simply because he was not wearing Ling Jian Sect's uniform, and the law enforcement team did not recognize him because his rank was too low.
Nothing will happen to him when his identity is revealed, and nothing will happen to Lu Sangjiu who helped him.
Therefore, Lu Sangjiu's move was purely a waste of money. He didn't have to pay anything, and he could still owe him a favor.
In the future dealings with Ye Zhiyao, there is no telling when Gu Jue will be used.
Based on his character, he would definitely be willing to return Lu Sangjiu's favor as long as it was not excessive.
Lu Sangjiu's little calculation clicked, but he never expected that... this Gu Jue would be so difficult to get along with.
At this moment, Lu Sangjiu couldn't help but doubt Ye Zhiyao's vision.
She doesn't like the master who is partial to her to the core, and she doesn't like the gentle senior brother who silently protects her. Why would she like such a taciturn straight man?
Is it because he looks cooler when he doesn't speak?
Lu Sangjiu thought about this question all the way until he was imprisoned in the prison of Tianmu City.
Seeing that the members of the law enforcement team who escorted them were all gone, Lu Sangjiu finally couldn't help but look at Gu Jue, who was locked in the same cell with her.
There is no one else here, isn't he ready to reveal his identity and scare them to death?
"Fellow Taoist..." Lu Sangjiu walked up to Gu Jue and lowered his voice to tactfully remind him, "The secret realm is about to open. If we waste time here, we may miss it."
"I see that you have an extraordinary temperament. You have never been afraid of facing the law enforcement team. I guess you come from a well-known sect. How about... can you think of a way?"
Gu Jue frowned slightly and said to her very seriously: "You should be punished if you do something wrong. It is not the behavior of a gentleman to try to take advantage of others."
Lu Sangjiu:? ? ?
She was a little confused immediately. What do you mean? Are you going to be punished here?
Doesn't it matter even if you miss the opening of Qingyu Secret Realm? Is your brain flooded? ? ?
With a series of question marks in his head, Lu Sangjiu had difficulty understanding Gu Jue's brain circuit.
Because he was so pretentious before, it wasn't because he was confident, but because he was prepared to go to jail honestly from the beginning?
Lu Sangjiu's expression was hard to describe. Seeing Gu Jue's serious look, he almost couldn't help but go up to Bang Bang and punch him twice.
If you wanted to go to jail obediently, you should have said it earlier, otherwise she wouldn't be acting here with him!
He could miss the secret realm without any worries, but she couldn't.
Otherwise, Ye Zhiyao would get the inheritance step by step, and Li Qiancheng would probably die in the secret realm.
Thinking of this, she couldn't hold her breath any longer and took out the messenger talisman, ready to call the leader to come and get the person.
After all, this is not a trivial matter. Li Qiancheng and the others may not have the face to do so, so they can only risk their dignity and ask the leader for help.
But she never expected that even though she was so shameless, the communication talisman would not work!
Seeing the unresponsive communication talisman, Lu Sangjiu looked confused, and then continued to try without giving up.
Gu Jue, who was meditating on the side, opened his eyes at some point and said, "It's useless. There is a magic circle set up in the dungeon, and any communication talisman will be ineffective."
Lu Sangjiu: "..."
She asked incomprehensibly, "Why?"
Gu Jue: "The Lingjian Sect hates people who use the back door the most, but sometimes they are approached by other sects, and it is difficult to enforce the law impartially due to human feelings."
"That's why I specially set up a magic circle here. No matter what your identity is, once you enter the dungeon, you will have no chance to call for help. Everyone will be treated equally."
Lu Sangjiu:! ! !
Is this something a normal person would think of? It’s so heartbreaking!
He cursed in his heart, but Lu Sangjiu still tried hard to maintain his image in front of Gu Jue.
She took a deep breath and asked, "Then... how long will we stay here?"
Gu Jue: "I hurt someone, at least half a month. If you obstruct law enforcement and you are guilty of the same crime as me, it will also be half a month."
Lu Sangjiu: "..."
She couldn't help it anymore. Now she not only wanted to curse people, she also wanted to hit them!
You are such a good person, but why is your brain so clueless?
It's also her fault for shooting herself in the foot, but who would have thought that Gu Jue, a man with too much integrity, could be so old-fashioned at such a young age?
Lu Sangjiu was heartbroken, and then thought about the possibility of escaping from prison with her current cultivation level, and the possibility that she would be released if she revealed Gu Jue's identity.
In the end...she felt that neither possibility was very high.
With Gu Jue's temperament, even if she revealed his identity and others wanted to let him go, he would "uprightly" take her through the jail with him.
As expected, not everyone can bear the male protagonist!
Now there was only one last option left. Lu Sangjiu looked at Gu Jue with a faint look...
