Chapter 48
At the last moment of consciousness, Lu Sangjiu looked at Xie Ningyuan right in front of him, with only one thought in his heart.
Is this... really the compassion of Buddhist cultivators?
When Lu Sangjiu opened her eyes again, she found that she was lying on an exquisite large bed.
Looking at the familiar environment around her, she was suddenly stunned for a moment. This was... her palace in Yuexia Palace?
When she thought of this, her head suddenly stung. She didn't know why, but she always felt that she shouldn't be here...
But this is her home. If she shouldn't appear here, where should she appear?
In the midst of doubts, the hall master punished Shan and ran in in a hurry.
"The palace master is in trouble!"
"I just got the news that Miss Bai Sheng was put on death row by the Beast Control Sect!"
Hearing this, the trace of doubt was instantly thrown away. Lu Sangjiu suddenly frowned, "Death row? Why is she locked up?"
Punishment said hurriedly: "I heard that Miss Bai's master is dead, and someone accused her of being the murderer. They also said that she had secretly colluded with the demon cultivators to cleanse the immortal sect with blood!"
Lu Sangjiu sneered when he heard this, "Colluding with demon cultivators? Ha, this direction is quite obvious."
Although she and Bai Sheng were vastly different in terms of cultivation, and one was a demon cultivator and the other was an immortal cultivator, so they seemed completely unrelated to each other, but...the two were indeed good friends.
At the beginning, Lu Sangjiu was preparing to break through the tribulation period, so he hid his cultivation and went out to travel.
On the way, she encountered demonic cultivators who practiced evil arts and harmed living beings. She always hated these guys who ruined the reputation of demonic cultivators, so she wanted to take some care of them.
Then he met Bai Sheng, who also wanted to meddle in other people's business.
At first the two had a fight, but later they realized that they had the same purpose and temporarily cooperated.
During this period, they all had a good impression of each other, and the misunderstandings between immortal cultivators and demon cultivators were gradually eliminated.
Both of them have informal personalities, so they became friends.
During the subsequent travels, the two of them traveled together for a long time.
Not long ago, Bai Sheng's junior sister met the two of them together. In order to avoid causing trouble to Bai Sheng, Lu Sangjiu parted ways with her.
In those days, the two of them only talked about friendship and nothing else, so how could there be any talk of collusion? What a joke!
After she came back, she was afraid that Bai Sheng would have trouble in the future, so she asked Xunshan to pay attention to the movement. She never expected that something like this would happen today.
Lu Sangjiu and Bai Sheng were together before, and Xun Shanbian also had some friendship with him, so he was also anxious at this time.
"I originally wanted to inquire further, but I was afraid of arousing suspicion, and if I found out that Miss Bai was colluding with the demon cultivator, I had no choice but to ask the palace master for instructions first."
Lu Sangjiu thought for a while and said, "That's fine, I'll go see her in person."
Although Lu Sangjiu is still at the peak of the Fusion Stage, the ancestor of the Beast Control Sect who has transcended the Tribulation Stage cannot come out of seclusion all year round, and the remaining two Supreme Elders of the Fusion Stage do not often show up.
As long as she was careful, it wouldn't be difficult to sneak in quietly.
After wandering around the Beast Control Sect for most of the night, Lu Sangjiu finally found the door to the death row.
Dark, cramped, and damp.
When she saw Bai Sheng, she was huddled in such an unbearable environment.
She was covered in blood, and he probably noticed her aura, and then slowly raised his head.
The moment she saw Lu Sangjiu, she tried her best to move the corners of her mouth and showed a smile that was uglier than crying.
"Ajiu...you're here."
Lu Sangjiu, this is the name that the Lord of the Moon Palace, Guhuang Venerable, gave himself when he was traveling abroad.
Even if she later found out her true identity, Bai Sheng still preferred to call her this because she said it was more cordial.
But now Bai Sheng is no longer as high-spirited as he was back then, and is more embarrassed than ever.
Lu Sangjiu felt a sting in her heart, and... she didn't know why, but she always felt as if she hadn't seen her for a long, long time.
Looking at that face, she felt a faint pain in her heart, as if she had completely lost her.
After a long while, Lu Sangjiu took a deep breath and walked towards Bai Sheng.
She didn't ask anything, only said, "I'll take you away."
But just as he was about to help him up, Bai Sheng said, "No... I can't leave."
She grabbed Lu Sangjiu's right hand with one hand and looked up at her slightly, with a look of pain on her face.
"I didn't kill the master, it was my junior sister Jin Ling'er...she practiced evil and killed the master."
"Now all the elders have been deceived by her. If I just leave like this, what will happen to the Beast Control Sect? Everyone will be in danger!"
This is the sect where she grew up, how could she watch everyone doomed?
Lu Sangjiu felt angry for no reason, "You are worried about them, but do they care about you at all?"
"I've known you for several years, but I don't even know what kind of person you are. Now they've made you look like this indiscriminately. Why do you care what they do?!"
Lu Sangjiu's words deeply touched Bai Sheng's pain. There was a moment of hesitation in her eyes, but in the end she shook her head and said, "Even if it's not for them... I still have to avenge my master."
Lu Sang said drunkenly, "You're already like this, how can you take revenge?"
There was a hint of hope in Bai Sheng's eyes, "When senior brother comes back, he will definitely believe me!"
The senior brother Bai Sheng mentioned, Lu Sangjiu had heard her mention before, was named Luo Ming.
The two grew up together, and their master had already made a marriage contract for them. As expected, they would be Taoist couples from now on.
It's just... hearing Bai Sheng talk about this person, a trace of disgust flashed in Lu Sangjiu's eyes.
She didn't know why, but she always felt that things might not develop as Bai Sheng thought.
But now Bai Sheng has made up her mind. Lu Sangjiu knows her character, so it's useless to say more.
She did not continue to persuade her, but just fed her the healing elixir she had specially brought.
"Thank you." Bai Sheng's eyes showed gratitude and he said sincerely: "You are still willing to save me under such circumstances. I am very grateful and touched."
Lu Sangjiu said angrily, "If you are grateful, just take care of yourself for me."
After a pause, she sighed, "Is there anything else I can do to help you?"
Bai Sheng smiled and said, "That's enough. You'd better leave as soon as possible to avoid being discovered."
Lu Sangjiu disdainfully said, "If you find out, you will find out. Will I be afraid of them?"
Bai Sheng persuaded you in a good-tempered voice: "I know you are powerful, but it is better to do less than to do more. Let's go quickly."
Lu Sangjiu didn't say anything more, but just as he was about to leave, he suddenly felt a strong pressure approaching!
Her expression suddenly changed, and she hurriedly led Bai Sheng out of the wall and hurried away!
The next moment, the two of them were floating in the air, but the death row where they were originally was hit by a palm technique that fell from the sky and was instantly razed to the ground!
Needless to say, none of the other prisoners inside would survive.
Bai Sheng looked pale and stared blankly at the ruins below, seemingly still unable to recover.
Lu Sangjiu, on the other hand, looked at the old man not far away coldly and sneered, "Even the supreme elders in the combined stage were dispatched... What an honor."
The old man sneered, "A mere demon cultivator actually dares to break into our Beast Controlling Sect. If we don't let you come and go, how can our Beast Controlling Sect have the dignity to be among the five major sects?"
