Chapter 219: Punishment at the Heart-Questioning Pavilion
The danger was temporarily over. Li Nian's body went limp and he sat on the ground, with more blood flowing from his body.
Her vision went dark, and the only thing she could see was the young man standing in front of her. Her heart seemed to ache for a moment.
Long Yuan tilted his head and fell to the ground, looking at Li Nian from his stomach. "Hey, are you okay?"
Li Nian took a long time to react. After a few seconds of silence, he stuffed a few pills into his mouth and said softly,
"It's okay, I can't die."
At the same time, he threw the pill bottle to Long Yuan, "Take it, it should be effective for you."
Long Yuan nodded, the fat on his little face trembled, and he moved in the same way as Li Nian, and lay down directly after eating.
The pill took effect quickly. Li Nian felt that the broken bones in his body were pieced together bit by bit, and the bleeding from the wounds had stopped.
She was extremely tired. After confirming with Long Yuan that this place was absolutely safe, she let herself fall into darkness and fell asleep.
Long Yuan held his head and stared at Li Nian with his blue eyes for a few seconds, but did not move.
At the same time, Su Yu, who was in the main hall of Tianyan Sect, frowned slightly, as if a part of his sea of consciousness was cut off. His throat tightened and a mouthful of blood gushed out.
The expressions of the people around him changed and they stood up immediately. Suifeng, who was sitting in the main seat, had anxiety in his eyes and eyebrows and hurried over.
"Junior brother, are you injured?"
Su Yu suppressed the sweet taste in his throat, raised his hand, signaled them to calm down, and said calmly, "It's okay."
Dan Yun and the others looked at each other with disbelief in their eyes. Since the last battle, they had never seen Su Yu injured.
Suifeng frowned, raised his hand to signal Danyun and others to retreat, and then forcibly brought Su Yu to the main peak and held him down to heal his injuries.
"Your soul is damaged, but you're okay? What happened?" Suifeng looked at him with a hint of reprimand in his words.
Su Yu closed his eyes lightly, circulated his spiritual power, and adjusted the injuries on his body. After absorbing another wisp of spiritual memory, his fingertips paused slightly.
He stood up and was about to walk out. Suifeng stared at him and stood in front of him. He rarely got angry, but now his face frowned.
"I placed a ray of spiritual consciousness on Li'er. Her life is in danger." Su Yu lowered his eyes and explained.
Upon hearing this, Suifeng's brows relaxed, as if he was relieved. "With a trace of divine consciousness here, what are you still worried about?"
The Void Refinement Stage, no, to be more precise, it is a wisp of spiritual consciousness of a cultivator in the Fusion Stage, and its strength is comparable to that of the peak of the Spirit Transformation Stage.
Su Yu shook his head, his eyes dark and gloomy, with some emotions that others could not understand, and said in a calm voice
"She would be scared, and I don't know if she's out of danger."
Suifeng paused, his expression somewhat puzzled. "Isn't her soul lamp fine? Even if you could shrink the earth to an inch, you wouldn't be able to get in. Are you going to split the North Sea to force your way in?"
Seeing his junior apprentice's expression was stern and his body temperature was getting lower and lower, Suifeng said helplessly
"Isn't Lu Xiao in Luoshui City? Let him go and pick up Li Nian, and you just stay in the sect."
Su Yu lowered his eyes and said nothing. He thought of the look Li'er gave him the last time, and his heart moved slightly. Maybe she didn't hate him that much.
At least there was concern for him in her eyes; her subconscious reaction couldn't lie.
After several changes of thoughts, he finally gave up the decision to rush over immediately. He closed his eyes tiredly, but the image of Li Nian covered in blood appeared in his mind.
There was no extra expression on his face, still as cold as ice, with long eyelashes drooping, making him look cold and lonely.
"Brother, I am an incompetent master. Every time she is in danger, I can't rush to her side."
In fact, she was still young but had to shoulder a lot of responsibilities. If she had not led away the high-ranking demons in Wuyue City, the situation would have been even more difficult.
She never relied on him and solved everything by herself. Her strong character made him feel very distressed.
Suifeng was slightly stunned. There were too many emotions in this sentence, so strong that it frightened him.
Su Yu is always cold and aloof, with almost no emotional fluctuations, rational and clear-headed, looking down on everything with a powerful attitude.
But when did he become so concerned about his disciple that he almost exceeded the boundaries between master and disciple?
He forced himself to suppress the panic in his heart, thinking of that bright and unrestrained girl, and sighed softly, "Or maybe you taught her very well, she is capable enough to face all dangers."
Su Yu lowered his eyes to hide his thoughts, but sometimes he would rather Li'er be a little more spoiled and rely on him a little more.
He stood up and was about to return to Juyun Peak, but stopped suddenly after hearing Suifeng's words.
"Junior brother, what exactly do you think of her?"
Although it is not stated explicitly, it is clear who this 'she' is.
The slightly warm sunlight shines through the windowsill, slanting onto the two of them, as if dispelling some of the coolness.
He turned around and looked at his senior brother who had raised him since he was a child. His eyes were indifferent, but with a hint of stubbornness.
Silent silence is the answer.
Suifeng felt a buzzing in his head, as if something had exploded, and there was nothing but a vast void.
He stayed where he was, his sanity gradually returning. His expression changed several times, and after a while he asked in a hoarse voice, "Do you really want to do this?"
The young man was silent for a moment, then he lifted his robe, revealing the moon-white color covering the ground. He knelt on the ground and said word by word:
"I am ashamed of the teachings given to me by my master, senior brother. Please punish me."
Suifeng took a few steps back and stared at the young man's face. His tall figure was trembling slightly, and it was unknown what he was thinking.
I don’t know when it was, but the little junior brother who always had a cold face and didn’t like to talk to anyone grew up and became an immortal who was admired by everyone and protected the peace of the area.
But now he knelt down to accept the punishment, and Suifeng felt his chest becoming more and more stuffy and he could hardly breathe.
"Is Li Nian treating you the same way? Or is this just your own way?"
The young man moved his lips and smiled with a hint of self-mockery. There was a hint of loneliness in his clear voice.
"It's just me. This matter has nothing to do with Li'er."
Suifeng was stunned. Looking at his junior brother's lonely face, he was really shocked. Is there anyone in this world who looks down on a face like his?
After realizing that his attention was misplaced, he cleared his throat awkwardly and said coldly
"Hmph, as a teacher, you actually have such a dirty mind. Go to the Conscience Pavilion and receive your punishment."
Su Yu left in response, leaving Sui Feng standing alone. After a while, he murmured softly, "What Master said back then, is it going to come true now?"
The news of Elder Shuanghua being punished was kept secret, and only the other elders knew about it, and they were all shocked.
The Heart-Questioning Pavilion is where the elders of the sect are punished. They cleanse their hearts and refine their minds over and over again, facing the inner demons deep in their hearts and cutting off the inner demons until their faith in Taoism is firm.
They would rather believe that it was the sect leader who went in, and they really didn't dare to believe that Elder Shuanghua had developed a demon in his heart and had other thoughts.
On the top of Juyun Peak, there is Yueying Pavilion.
"Junior brother, drink the medicine."
The young man did not respond, but just lowered his head, lowered his silent eyes, and his face was pale and a little sickly.
