Lu Wenshu laughed in response. He didn"t think that after such a long time, this la.s.s was still so hard to deal with.
"I will tell you your temple disciples" information in exchange for my sect disciples" lives. After all, they aren"t really involved in this matter. The only ones involved are those who discussed the plans. Furthermore, I have never expected you to spare me and the elders."
Bai Luochu nodded with satisfaction. After all, everything happened because those old men were insensitive and unfeeling. They were the cause of the destruction of the Thousand Brilliance Temple.
"After you pa.s.sed away in your previous life, the Three Great Immortal Sects wanted to split the cultivation resources of the Thousand Brilliance Temple and even wanted to kill all of the temple disciples to prevent any trouble from arising in the future. But due to the inappropriate distribution of the resources, there wasn"t any conclusion. I made use of the time to secretly transfer everything away. But in order to pull the wool over their eyes, I had to send the temple disciples to remote regions. There are some within the Desolate Region and I think you have already encountered some of them."
Lu Wenshu glanced at Bai Luochu"s expression and didn"t notice any change. He immediately understood that she had definitely seen some of her fellow disciples already.=
"As for the temple"s inheritance, I have sealed it up with the method that you taught me. Those people failed to unseal it, allowing the inheritance to be preserved. If you wish to rebuild the Thousand Brilliance Temple again, you can just return to the original location. I have asked people to renovate the place and they have been keeping it clean ever since.”
Bai Luochu felt rather moved as she never expected him to think so far ahead. She became rather hesitant and couldn"t decide if she wanted to kill him.
Of course, Pei Qingfeng noticed something wrong with Bai Luochu and he felt that u Wenshu wasn"t as hopeless as he had thought. He immediately proposed, "If you cannot bear to kill him, just cripple his cultivation and get this over with."
Pei Qingfeng spoke in an extremely soft voice and if Bai Luochu didn"t pay attention to him, she wouldn"t have heard what he had proposed. Bai Luochu was ultimately unable to kill Lu Wenshu, After all, Lu Wenshu merely ruined her love life. The people that destroyed her future were those insatiable elders from the Three Great Immortal Sects. As such, Bai Luochu merely lifted her hand and shot a silver needle at Lu Wenshu.
When the silver needle entered his body, Lu Wenshu"s spirit sea"s acupoint became sealed. He felt that his spirit qi was destroyed and he was no more than a mortal.
"This is ultimately not your fault. Since you have already told me the locations of my disciples, I definitely won"t do anything to your fellow disciples. However, the same cannot be said for the elders. An eye for an eye. Since I was a wastrel who couldn"t cultivate after my reincarnation, I will take away your cultivation in retaliation.”
Bai Luochu was a person with clear distinction for vengeance and favor. She would spare those who really wanted her dead. As for Lu Wenshu, the best method she could think of was to waste his cultivation. Now that his ability to remain proud had been shattered, he had already received his retribution.
But Lu Wenshu obviously didn"t think the same way.
Just when Bai Luochu turned around and prepared to leave, Lu Wenshu took out the dagger he had hidden and he buried it into his chest.
The entire process was silent and if Hua Sen didn"t scream out in response, Bai Luochu wouldn"t even have realized that he had ended his life.
The blood flower blossomed on Lu Wenshu"s chest like a resplendent and elegant peony.
When Bai Luochu turned around, the only scene that greeted her was the blood red stain on Lu Wenshu"s chest. She didn"t think that Lu Wenshu was so determined to severe everything.
"Ah Chu, I still owe you a life. Didn"t I say that I would return you everything I owed you?"
Bai Luochu finally recalled that Lu Wenshu had indeed mentioned it before. In the past, she merely thought that he was trying to pacify her and she ignored whatever he said.
From what she could see, she knew that Lu Wenshu meant what he said. He insisted for her to leave his fellow disciples alone as he had already created a path of retreat for all the remaining members of the Thousand Brilliance Temple.
Lu Wenshu never thought that he could continue living peacefully after seeing Bai Luochu again. After his constant pining for her, he finally decided to compensate her with his life.
The scene of whatever memories he had with her flashed through his eyes and he knew that those would be the last time he would be able to think of the wonderful time he spent with her.
A smile appeared on his face, and it was warm enough to melt the toughest snow. The scene where he first met her replayed again and again in his eyes and he no longer chose to hide his feelings.
Darkness slowly filled his vision, and he fell onto the ground.
"He planned everything before killing himself..." If Lu Wenshu had used the dagger to stab himself when he first met her, it wouldn"t be possible for him to kill himself. Since he knew that Bai Luochu would only cripple his cultivation after learning about the news of her fellow disciples, he knew that the moment to take his own life had arrived. There was nothing more to say about a complete lunatic like Lu Wenshu.
As for Hua Sen, he didn"t feel as emotional and sad as he thought he would have felt. He knew that his senior brother was finally freed from his difficult predicament. Even though it wasn"t a good ending, it was an ending his senior brother really wanted.
Hua Sen looked at Bai Luochu and noticed that the expression on her face thawed. The look of dissatisfaction on his face slowly started to disappear, and he felt that he managed to learn some of the pain she felt in her past life when Lu Wenshu betrayed her. Senior... Senior probably wouldn"t wish to see Bai Luochu blaming herself.
Hua Sen opened his mouth and said, "Young Lady Bai doesn"t need to blame yourself. Senior no longer wished to live in this world and his heart died in the Desolate Region. It was you who allowed him to hang on to his life, and now that you have returned safely, it"s time for him to leave this world…”
Hua Sen glanced at Bai Luochu and his gaze contained a deep meaning behind it.
