There are countless geniuses in the world of cultivation, but only my junior sister Sha Diao

Perhaps he noticed that the gaze from above was too scorching, Ye Sui'an paused in drawing the talisman and raised his head in confusion.

Then he saw his junior sister folding her arms, supporting her chin with one hand, looking at him thoughtfully.

Ye Sui'an: "?"

As a top ten senior brother, Ye Sui'an thought about it and asked, "What's wrong?"

"Nothing." Gu Xia lazily covered his eyes: "I just suddenly felt that you were so handsome when you were seriously drawing talismans, Third Brother."

Ye Sui'an was choked by her straight shot, then leaned back and said with a smile: "Thank you, I think I'm handsome too."

Gu Xia: "..."

Wait a minute.

She suddenly began to doubt her own judgment again.

Judging from the degree of narcissism, she is exactly the same as her third senior brother.

Skipping this topic for the time being, Gu Xia looked around and asked casually: "Where are the others? Aren't they all in the sect? Why are you the only one here?"

Ye Sui'an's expression calmed down and he said calmly: "The eldest brother has gone out to look for a breakthrough opportunity and has not returned yet. As for the other two, you will see them later."

Gu Xia paused looking around and turned to look at him, feeling that something was strange.

Before she could think deeply, she heard footsteps outside.

It sounds very messy.

The two looked at each other, stood up and walked out quickly.

As soon as Gu Xia looked up, he saw Xu Xingmu holding a bloody man and shouted in panic: "Quick! Go and call the elders to save him!"

"what happened?"

Gu Xia was suddenly startled, and when he saw the man's face clearly, his expression suddenly turned cold.

Jiang Chaoxu's clothes were soaked in blood, and there was a big hole in his abdomen, which was still bleeding. His face was pale and he was barely breathing.

The boy looked like a candle that could go out at any moment, and his life was in danger.

Gu Xia had never seen Fourth Senior Brother in such a miserable state.

The sect leader was not there, and some disciples nearby who had already seen that something was not right ran to ask for help from the elders.

Xu Xingmu covered the hole in his abdomen and said in a hoarse voice: "He...his mermaid pearl is gone."

"What?" Ye Sui'an grabbed him fiercely, his smile gone: "How is it possible? What happened? Why did Junior Brother lose the Mermaid Pearl?"

Among the five direct disciples of Taiyi Sect, only Jiang Chaoxu is different from them.

He has half mermaid blood, in other words, the mermaid pearl is his life.

It is impossible for Jiang Chaoxu himself not to know the seriousness of the matter, so, what exactly happened?

While the two were talking, Gu Xia had already recovered from his daze. He quickly reached out and took out a hemostatic pill and stuffed it into Jiang Chaoxu's mouth.

The rate at which the blood flowed gradually slowed down, but without the mermaid pearl, this could only delay the time of his death.

The young man was dying, and the life force in his body was still rapidly fading.

An elder who practiced alchemy arrived first. His pupils suddenly contracted when he saw this scene, and he quickly supplied spiritual power to the people.

After a moment, he stepped back dejectedly, his eyes full of pity.

"Hopeless……"

Without the mermaid pearl, no matter how much spiritual power is transferred or how many pills are fed, it will be in vain.

Sure enough, the legs hidden under the boy's robe gradually turned into a beautiful fiery red fish tail, but it faded away with the passage of vitality.

If such a strange scene had not happened now, Gu Xia would definitely reach out and poke it.

But now, her lips were straight and she didn't dare to touch them.

I was afraid that Jiang Chaoxu would be broken into pieces.

The elder's anxious question rang in my ears: "What's going on? What happened to Xiao Xu?"

Xu Xingmu clenched his fist and smashed it hard on the ground. He ignored the blood on his hand and cried out in anger: "It was Qu Yimian! She took Fourth Junior Brother's mermaid pearl."

"When I arrived, it was already too late."

……

Everyone was in an uproar.

The elder was so anxious that he turned around and cursed: "Nonsense! Can she take the mermaid pearl away casually?"

"Someone, go and tell the leader of Qingyun Sect to bring this disciple here! Otherwise, we will never let this matter go!"

Gu Xia lowered his head expressionlessly, ignoring those noisy voices. His mind was terrifyingly calm at the moment.

She remembered that according to the original plot, it was Qu Yimian who conquered Jiang Chaoxu, in exchange for the other party willingly giving her the mermaid pearl.

Now it seems that it was not voluntary but a blatant robbery?

In a flash, Gu Xia suddenly understood the purpose of this illusion.

The calmer her expression, the more intensely the rage burned in her body, as if it was about to burst out of her heart.

The illusion sensed her emotional ups and downs, and was internally smug, waiting to see the scene where Gu Xia lost her mind and got lost in the illusion.

Gu Xia was indeed very angry, but her mind was still clear. She secretly said that this incident was obviously inconsistent with the plot of the original book, but how could she know that?

The illusion mobilizes people's deepest fears, anger and even yearnings.

And in Gu Xia's memory, he probably wasn't aware of this matter.

But the scene before her was so real, she could feel the anger and sadness deep in her soul.

The two emotions kept pulling at each other, as if to split her in two.

The illusion is so exciting.

Yes, yes, that’s right, let’s immerse ourselves forever in the illusion it creates.

Just when everyone was panicking, a disciple suddenly fell to the ground, crawling and kneeling, and shouted: "Many cultivators came from outside the sect, saying... saying that we are colluding with the demons, and that the whole sect is full of demon cultivators!"

"That's complete nonsense!"

Several elders who came over angrily smashed a boulder not far away with their palms and flicked their sleeves coldly: "We will go and take a look. You guys be prepared."

Gu Xia's confused mind suddenly became clear and he raised his head abruptly.

It was at this time in the original book that Qu Yimian united several sects and, under the banner of exterminating the demons, besieged Taiyi Sect for half a month.

Unfortunately, Fang Jinxing and some of the elders were not in the sect at that time, and the news could not be delivered. This led to heavy casualties throughout the sect.

but--

How could those sects alone shake the thousand-year heritage of Taiyi Sect?

There must be other people hiding in the dark who are fanning the flames.

At this moment, it was clear what the illusion was trying to do.

The scenes changed one after another, and Gu Xia saw Jiang Chaoxu lying on the ground gradually losing his breath.

Looking at the bodies of other inner and outer disciples being torn into pieces, there were corpses everywhere in the sect.

When Ye Sui'an was protecting the weaker disciples behind him, he was pierced through the heart by a sword.

The last scene was when Xu Xingmu was standing in the front with a sword, and was stabbed through by a green spiritual sword.

Eventually, the starlight in the eyes of that lively and carefree young man dimmed little by little.

"Little...Junior Sister, you have to...stay alive..."

In the end, Gu Xia opened his mouth and his sword-wielding hand fell down weakly.

"pat-"

She raised her sore eyes, and the last thing she saw was Qu Yimian, who was walking slowly towards her like the moon surrounded by stars.
