Chapter 087: Respecting Others’ Fate

Does Bai Qiulan know how intense Lu Ye’s suffering is?

She pretended to be unaware.

But what’s the truth?

The Taiyin Chaos Divine Body!

Once the Chaos Yin Poison strikes, you need the Fire of Life to warm away that deadly chill.

The terror of Chaos Yin Poison is definitely not just a matter of coldness; it penetrates the bones, seeps into the soul.

Lu Ye even lost a life because of this thing.

Relying on frantic calculations, he finally found a glimmer of hope after dying once.

The solution is to take more than a dozen types of the most Yang and robust Dan Pills in advance and use his own lifespan and cultivation as flames to forcibly neutralize the Chaos Yin Poison.

Of course, this method isn’t something Lu Ye alone can pull off.

If others can develop those dozen kinds of Yang and robust Dan Pills and don’t mind the cost of lifespan and regression in cultivation, they could also help Bai Qiulan with her detox.

But those dozen types of Dan Pills are pretty complicated; during the initial calculations, they almost crashed the system that hadn’t even leveled up much yet.

And precisely because of those dozen types of pills, Lu Ye got hilariously carried away while detoxing, flipping Bai Qiulan over and over until her eyes rolled back.

“Master doesn’t know how much you’re suffering!”

Yue Hongling also couldn’t believe that her revered Master was… a hypocrite.

Listening to Yue Hongling’s unwavering tone, Lu Ye couldn’t help but chuckle.

Look at that, still the same, no hint of change.

What he said was always disbelieved, without even needing an investigation, instantly denied, and his guesses taken as absolute truth.

He just didn’t get it.

Both he and Bai Qiulan had gone through everything together; they had seen the most honest sides of each other, and Lu Ye wasn’t putting on a show under the effects of the Dan Pills.

As long as Bai Qiulan casually glanced at Lu Ye, no— even if she didn’t glance at all—she should know what kind of pain he was enduring.

Lu Ye waved his hand.

“Boom!”

Yue Hongling was instantly sent flying, crashing hard into a wall, and the door slammed shut.

If she said one more word, she’d be the fool!

Having had a decent harvest from a trip to the Genius Ancient Battlefield, and with the Grand Dao Sect coming to back him up, Lu Ye felt quite cozy.

But it didn’t take long for that feeling to be spoiled again.

Damn!

Yue Hongling got up from the ground, spitting out a mouthful of blood.

“Senior Brother, save Master! We only have this one Master!”

This time, Lu Ye completely ignored her.

With no other choice, Yue Hongling hurried back to Bai Qiulan’s location.

Sun Ruowei quickly spoke up, “How is it? Did Lu Ye come?”

Yue Hongling’s face was full of bitterness, “Senior Brother won’t help; it seems I said the wrong thing and made him angry again.”

“What did you say? Seriously, with Master in this state, what did you say to make him mad?” Sun Ruowei couldn’t understand.

Yue Hongling still didn’t know where she had gone wrong.

“Didn’t my Senior Brother save Master before? I just said Master didn’t know he was suffering so much, and then he blasted me away.”

Sun Ruowei？？？

“How do you know Master doesn’t know he’s suffering that much?”

Yue Hongling……

Sun Ruowei’s question left Yue Hongling stunned; how did she know?

Right, how did she know?

It was what Master said……

At that moment, Yue Hongling’s gaze fell on Bai Qiulan.

Master said Lu Ye wasn’t suffering much; in fact, he was thriving in it.

But is that really the case?

If Master said so, she believed it completely. What about her Senior Brother’s words? When did she ever believe him?

Yue Hongling clutched her heart.

Ouch, it hurts, really hurts!

She could barely stand.

Why does she always treat her Senior Brother this way?

Clearly, she already regretted it, yet when facing him, she acted the same?

In that moment, Yue Hongling even hated herself.

She didn’t understand what was wrong with her; why, when facing her Senior Brother, was she always so irrationally confident, believing only what she wanted to believe?

Sun Ruowei sighed softly.

She glanced at Bai Qiulan; Lu Ye’s actions proved that the bond between Bai Qiulan and Lu Ye was deeper than she imagined.

“So, what now?”

Yue Hongling bit back her heartache and asked.

Sun Ruowei fell into contemplation.

“I’ll go find Lu Ye!”

“You have to speak nicely. Right now, my Senior Brother is pretty irritable; he’ll hit anyone who crosses him.”

Sun Ruowei’s figure vanished.

Soon, she appeared at Lu Ye’s door.

She gently knocked on the door.

Lu Ye was rummaging through various Storage Rings from the Transcending Tribulation Realm, and when he sensed Sun Ruowei’s arrival, he pondered for a moment.

“Ding, my kind has arrived!”

The system’s voice rang in his mind, sounding vaguely excited.

“She has a system too?” Lu Ye raised an eyebrow.

“Ding, no, she just loves gossip!”

Lu Ye……

“Ding, she loves your gossip the most!”

Lu Ye……

Why don’t you just revert to Heavenly Dao? At least be honest.

Lu Ye opened the door and slightly cupped his hands toward Sun Ruowei, “Disciple Lu Ye, greetings, Master Sun.”

A gentle smile warmed his face.

Though Sun Ruowei met her end by overeating gossip in her past life, she had fought alongside troops during a great war against alien races and died in the battle.

She was quite fond of Lu Ye.

“Lu Ye!”

Sun Ruowei and Lu Ye weren’t strangers; their recent interactions had built familiarity. Once, it was when Lu Ye turned red, exuding overwhelming malice seemingly ready to end the world. Another time was when Lu Ye used a Heavenly Tribulation to wipe out a bunch of Transcending Tribulation practitioners.

Well, now Lu Ye felt different to her; he managed to instill a sense of fear within her.

“Master, no need to be afraid; I only kill enemies. We’re all from the same sect here.” Lu Ye noticed Sun Ruowei’s fear and spoke in a tone imbued with a hint of Dao intent to dissipate her anxiety.

As expected, Sun Ruowei’s fear lessened.

“True, we’re from the same sect, one of us. I am a great friend of your Master and treat you like my own; um… maybe that’s not the best term, but you get what I mean, right?”

“Disciple understands.”

“Now, since your Master is in a comatose state, I heard that girl Hongling said you have a method to save her. Could you help?” Sun Ruowei asked.

“Sorry, Master Sun, Master once explicitly stated that I shouldn’t save her. Although I have saved her before, I have already faced my punishment and wouldn’t dare meddle again; I kindly urge Master Sun to seek others, perhaps they might have a cure.” Lu Ye’s tone was respectful yet unmistakably cold.

“She won’t let you save her?”

“Master is Master, and I am I. Respecting my Master and honoring the Dao are the norms; there’s a clear boundary, so I hope Master Sun understands my predicament!” Lu Ye said, cupping his hands.

Sun Ruowei……

“In exceptional times, doing exceptional things is indeed understandable.”

“Master Sun also acknowledged that it’s understandable; that it implies forgiveness. Only wrongs require forgiveness, but if I don’t act, then I can’t go wrong, hence there’s no need to discuss forgiveness or not.”

Sun Ruowei…… speechless!
