After rebirth, she discovered the space golden finger
Chapter 373: Confrontation
Although Ji Feng was stabbed by Chen Lingxi and had his arm cut off by Pei Yun, he was in the late stage of the Spiritual Transformation Realm after all, so these injuries were not fatal.
After leaving Lingxi Mountain, the escorting guards turned around and left. He also pulled Shi Meixue away, the farther away from Lingxi Mountain the better...
Although there were flaws in this plan, Ji Feng did not expect that he and his lover could escape. While Ji Feng was relieved, he was also a little afraid that Chen Lingxi was pretending to be magnanimous on the surface but was secretly trying to kill them.
"Cousin, I can't go with you yet. I have to explain everything clearly to Ruyue and the Shi family. My parents and relatives are visiting Lingxi Mountain right now. They have no idea about this. I have to explain it clearly to them..." Shi Meixue let go of Ji Feng's hand.
Ji Feng sneered and said, "Meixue, do you think you can leave Lingxi Mountain safely if you tell your father the truth? They will definitely force you to kneel in front of Chen Lingxi and admit your mistakes, and send you back to Chen Lingxi... and your daughter, she might be more willing to stay with Chen Lingxi..."
"I have to go back no matter what."
Seeing that she insisted, Ji Feng was unable to persuade her to compromise. He could only make an appointment with her to meet here one day later and then elope together.
After Shi Meixue returned to her Meixue Pavilion, she saw Chen Ruyue and a middle-aged woman waiting in the hall with anxious faces——
"Mom!" Chen Ruyue glanced at Shi Meixue with her sharp eyes and quickly walked towards her, with the beautiful woman following closely behind.
"Ruyue, mother."
"Meixue, what's going on? Now the whole Lingxi Mountain is spreading the rumor that you had a tryst with a strange man and were caught on the spot by Master Lingxi..." Mrs. Shi grabbed Shi Meixue's arm and said while looking at her expression.
"Mom, you want to divorce father and leave Lingxi Mountain?!" Chen Ruyue still had an expression of disbelief on her face, and asked, "You actually betrayed father for an unknown man?"
"Is it Ji Feng? He came to see you? My daughter! Are you confused? No matter how promising Ji Feng is, he can never compare to Venerable Lingxi..." Madam Shi cried, "You have brought shame to the Shi family!"
"Ji Feng is not an unknown man. If it weren't for my father, we would have become Taoist couples long ago..."
Shi Meixue looked at the two of them solemnly, "Lingxi promised to let me go and not to embarrass the Shi family. As for Ruyue, your father said that you can stay with him or me..."
"Mother, how can you be so selfish?! Treat me and father like this?!" Chen Ruyue excitedly shook off her hand.
"...If it weren't for your father, the Shi family wouldn't have been so greedy to send me to Lingxi Mountain. Daughter, your father is a sentimental man. Do you really think he needs a woman like me..."
At this moment, Shi Meixue had to admit that she had feelings for Chen Lingxi. It was because of the love in her heart that she felt jealous and possessive, but she knew that Chen Lingxi would never belong to her alone, so she had to leave, start over, and forget this man.
"Isn't your father good to you? The magic weapons and elixirs you have, your cultivation and your skills, which one of them is not obtained by relying on your father's favor? How can you blame your father for your mistakes!"
"Daughter, your father and his clansmen are furious now. Those families that were originally on good terms with our Shi family no longer dare to say hello, for fear of offending Venerable Lingxi. The sects and families that came to Lingxi Mountain to attend the birthday banquet are all laughing at our Shi family. You should go and see Venerable Lingxi right now and ask for his forgiveness. As long as you appear with him at the birthday banquet, all the disturbances will be calmed down." Mrs. Shi said.
"Mother, I have made my decision. I will leave with Ji Feng. Just treat me as your daughter..."
As soon as she finished speaking, Madam Shi slapped Shi Meixue. Just as Chen Ruyue was about to persuade her, two more people walked in from outside the palace...
Seeing the Madam and her maid who had always been at odds with her coming uninvited, Chen Ruyue couldn't help but retort, "Madam, this is Meixuexuan. It's not good to barge in without my mother's consent..."
The eldest lady glanced at her arrogantly and smugly, and said sarcastically: "The fifth lady is gone, so how can there be any Mei Xuexuan? She is just an unfaithful whore!"
As soon as these words came out, the faces of the three people present changed. Chen Ruyue was about to rush forward, but was stopped by Shi Meixue. She said with a gloomy face:
"Lingxi said that I can stay until the birthday banquet is over, so this is still my residence. I have something to discuss with my family, so please leave, Madam."
"How dare you call your husband by his name? Tsk tsk... You are so shameless." The eldest lady looked at her with a mocking look, "I came here because I have something to do. It's just right that you are here!"
"What's the matter?"
"Although my husband is broad-minded and willing to let you go, you should not be ignorant. Please hand over all the magic tools, treasures and spiritual medicines you have obtained in Lingxi Mountain over the years..."
"These things were given to my mother by my father. My father didn't say anything. What qualifications do you have to ask for them?" Chen Ruyue stepped forward and said coldly.
"Sure enough, your daughter is as shameless as you. She betrayed her husband and had the nerve to take all these treasures away. She must be thinking of leaving them to that wild man..."
The eldest lady walked around Chen Ruyue and speculated maliciously, "Your daughter is unruly and headstrong, not like your husband at all. Could it be... I think your husband should investigate it carefully and stop raising a child for someone else."
"What did you say?!" Chen Ruyue heard the eldest lady's hidden meaning, and she was about to take action in anger. The maid behind the eldest lady stepped forward to stand in front of her.
Just when the scene was in chaos, a scarlet figure walked in. When the people present saw Chen Lingxi coming in, they were stunned at first, then immediately stopped arguing and saluted him.
"Father, the eldest lady has been slandering my mother and even wants her to hand over the treasure you gave her..." Chen Ruyue relied on her past favor and came to Chen Lingxi to complain.
When the first lady saw Chen Lingxi glanced at her casually, her heart tightened and she quickly explained, "My husband, you said that there is no Fifth Madam in Lingxi Mountain anymore. Then the woman in front of me is no longer from Lingxi Mountain, so she is naturally not qualified to own the treasures of Lingxi Mountain..."
"Meixue! Why don't you admit your mistake quickly, Venerable Lingxi!" Mrs. Shi suddenly interrupted.
Shi Meixue paused, and was about to say something when Chen Lingxi glanced at everyone present and said, "I, Chen Lingxi, have never taken back anything I have given away, and I have no reason to take back words I have said..."
As he spoke, he looked at Shi Meixue with an indifferent expression, "You can leave at any time. No one in Lingxi Mountain can stop you from leaving, not even the Shi family. As for after leaving Lingxi Mountain, whether the next road is good or bad is up to you..."
After he finished speaking, he turned his gaze to the eldest lady.
Seeing his solemn expression, the eldest lady exuded an oppressive aura that made her feel a little breathless. She said guiltily, "...husband."
"As for you, stop now." A trace of disappointment flashed across Chen Lingxi's eyes, and after giving the warning, he left alone...
On the other side, Pei Yun returned to the guest house from the peach blossom forest on the top of Lingxi Mountain and found that all the people from the Yunshan Sect were gone. Only there was a faint spiritual energy emanating from Luo Rufeng's room. She knew that Luo Rufeng was still practicing, but half a month had passed, so he might be coming out soon.
Pei Yun's heart was filled with excitement. He lingered at the door of Luo Rufeng's room for a while before suppressing his excitement and returning to his room...
It was approaching dusk and everyone from the Yunshan Sect returned to the guest house. Pei Yun noticed the commotion outside, put down his practice and walked out of the room.
"Where did you go for the trial? Why did you come back together?" Pei Yun asked curiously.
"...You don't know that we just had a group battle with other sects today..." Fu Lingchen said with some reluctance, "If my cultivation hadn't been destroyed, I could have swept most of the Nine Sword Sect and the Situ Family by myself..."
"You went to the arena to compete? You faced off against the Nine Sword Sect again?"
Liang Feng nodded, then shook his head and explained: "There is a duel array at the foot of Lingxi Mountain. Every time the duel array is opened, three parties will compete against each other. Each party can have up to ten people. The party that stands in the array at the end is the winner. If you win ten games in a row, you can enter Lingxi Mountain. I heard that on the hillside of Lingxi Mountain, the ten major sects of Dongcangzhou and those big families and forces are holding an arena competition. As long as you win ten games in a row, you can participate..."
Pei Yun thought about it and remembered that when she passed by the hillside of Lingxi Mountain before, she did see the disciples and elders of the ten major sects, and she also met Venerable Qin Gu.
"So did you win?" Pei Yun asked excitedly.
"Of course...I lost."
Pei Yun and Luo Rufeng were not there. The strongest among the others were Elder Li and Liang Feng from the Zhengfa Hall, but they were only in the middle Nascent Soul stage. Liang Feng had just broken through recently, and it was the gift Pei Yun gave him after he came back from the demon world that allowed him to break through successfully.
"Then I'll go with you guys tomorrow!" Pei Yun was very interested.
