Chapter 690 Heading to Bohai Palace
After the two separated in the Tianyu battlefield, Ling Yufei returned to the Bixiao Palace with the Feihong Sword.
She first followed the agreement between the two and took the opportunity to offer the original crystal core to the Saint of the Tiangong Palace to test the other party's reaction with the Feihong Sword, but unfortunately there was no result.
Next, she went to the Jiuyou Land where the Nether Palace was located with Ouyang Ting, Luo Shuhui and others to collect information about the Jiuyou Land for Lu Yu.
During this process, although they experienced several hardships, they were all safe and sound in the end.
However, they encountered some twists and turns on the way back.
Just as they returned from the depths of the Jiuyou and were about to reach the Nether Palace, they suddenly met a casual cultivator who seemed to be very interested in the Feihong Sword in Ling Yufei's hand and offered to buy the Feihong Sword in her hand.
The Feihong Sword was only temporarily lent by Lu Yu. When he gave it to her, he had repeatedly reminded her that this sword was extremely important, equivalent to his life and property... Therefore, Ling Yufei naturally could not agree to the request of the casual cultivator, so she flatly refused.
Unexpectedly, the casual cultivator was very stubborn and proposed that he could not sell it to him, but at least let him take a look.
Ling Yufei still did not agree, and the two sides had a dispute and then started fighting.
During the battle, the casual cultivator suddenly blocked the Feihong Sword with his body unexpectedly, and the sword tip was inserted into his chest.
Ling Yufei was caught off guard and was stunned.
The casual cultivator took the opportunity to carefully observe the Feihong Sword for a while, and did not care about the sword wound on his body. Finally, he left with satisfaction.
Ling Yufei was very surprised by this, but after all, she did not suffer any losses, so she let him go.
After that, strange things happened.
The Feihong Sword often became uncontrollable. Sometimes, she did not press the spring, but the sword body automatically jumped out of the scabbard.
Until a few months ago, she suddenly received a task assigned by the palace to guard a temple in the Bixiao Palace, where the Bixiao Palace's treasure, the Star-Moon Holy Emblem, was stored.
But what she did not expect was that once when she approached the Star-Moon Holy Emblem, the Feihong Sword suddenly came out of the scabbard again, and it automatically attacked the Star-Moon Divine Light, not only completely destroying it, but also completely swallowing up the sacred emblem light scattered after the treasure was broken.
In the end, the treasure disappeared without a trace.
So, Ling Yufei became a treasure thief...
She knew that the Feihong Sword was extremely important, and once she revealed the truth, the sword would be immediately lost.
So she never revealed the truth to anyone from then on. Even though she was accused of stealing treasures and was imprisoned and suffered hardships, she never revealed the secret...
After listening to Ling Yufei's story, Lu Yu was stunned.
"So, the Star and Moon Holy Emblem was swallowed by the Feihong Sword?"
Ling Yufei nodded and smiled bitterly: "So, Junior Brother Lu, you can't do what you promised to the Lord of Chunyang Palace. Why don't you send me back to the prison of Chunyang Palace..."
"What nonsense!"
Lu Yu shook his head, his voice firm and unquestionable.
"I gave you the Feihong Sword. This matter was entirely caused by me. How could I let you continue to suffer because of me? Even if I have to go to war with the entire Bixiao Palace, I will never agree to this!"
"Junior Brother Lu..."
Ling Yufei couldn't help but be full of excitement. She looked at Lu Yu with a sad look in her eyes. She felt that all the hardships she had suffered in the past few days were worth it at this moment.
"Master, what do you think?"
Lu Yu couldn't help but turn to Yang Chudie and asked.
After all, when the Feihong Sword was in tatters, it was forged and refined by Yang Chudie before it became a ninth-grade sword. She was one of the people who knew the performance of this sword best. If there was any special change in this sword, she should also know it best.
Yang Chudie thought for a moment and said, "From Yufei's description, it seems that the Feihong Sword has suddenly awakened its spirit, but I have carefully looked at this sword before, and the original spirit has been completely destroyed and has disappeared..."
"This matter is probably related to that mysterious casual cultivator, but it is unheard of to be able to complete the spirit tempering in such a short moment... Moreover, Yufei just said that the man is not a real strong man, how could he complete the spirit tempering for him?"
Lu Yu couldn't help but think of the blood knife he had obtained from the blood knife demon before, and said, "Perhaps, not all "The soul-tempering methods all require real strong men to complete?"
Yang Chudie shook her head: "I know, you want to talk about the blood knife you gave to Qi Yunkai to use? Although the knife was not tempered with the power of a real person, it was soaked in blood over time. The process was extremely long and the method was extremely insidious... Such a method can never be completed in an instant..."
As she said this, she couldn't help but sigh softly: "If I can take a look at the Feihong Sword, maybe I can get more information..."
Lu Yu immediately turned back to look at Ling Yufei and asked: "Where is the Feihong Sword now?"
Ling Yufei replied: "I was imprisoned at the time, and the people in the palace asked me about the whereabouts of the Star-Moon Holy Emblem. All my belongings were confiscated. If nothing unexpected happens, those things should still be in the Bohai Palace now..."
Lu Yu nodded: "Then, it seems that I can only go to the Bohai Palace to find out..."
"Junior Brother Lu..."
Ling Yufei suddenly called Lu Yu again, looking as if she wanted to say something but stopped.
Lu Yu said calmly: "Sister Fei, you and I have lived and died together, and now we are even more loyal to each other. Why are you being polite to me? Just tell me what you want to say!"
Ling Yufei nodded gently, and then she mustered up her courage and said slowly:
"I don't have many friends in the Bixiao Palace. The best ones are Xiaohui, Tingting and the others..."
"This time I was imprisoned because of the disappearance of the Star-Moon Holy Emblem. They couldn't find the whereabouts of the Star-Moon Holy Emblem. They thought that Xiaohui, Tingting and the others colluded with me to hide the whereabouts of the treasure for me..."
"Although they were not imprisoned in the Chunyang Palace like me, they were also imprisoned because of this incident. Although I have been rescued by you, most of them are still suffering. I want to get rid of you and rescue them!"
Lu Yu finally understood at this time why Ouyang Ting was covered with bruises when she found Yudie Peak... It turned out to be because of this matter.
He frowned slightly and said, "Where are they being held now? Also in Bohai Palace?"
Ling Yufei showed a trace of confusion in her eyes, and said, "It has been so long, I can't get any information from the outside world in Chunyang Palace, and I don't know whether they are still in the prison of Bohai Palace at this moment..."
"However, even if they are not in the prison, they must have been sent by Bohai Palace to do hard labor, and they must be under the nose of Bohai Palace..."
Lu Yu suddenly felt relieved and smiled happily: "If that's the case, then it's easy to deal with. This trip to Bohai Palace will solve all the problems at once. !"
"Don't worry, Sister Fei. Not to mention that the other sisters are all my comrades who have fought side by side with me. Just for your sake, I can't abandon them!"
"However, at least Sister Ting, you don't have to worry for the time being. She should be recovering on Yudie Peak at this moment. Otherwise, how do you think I know that you are trapped in Chunyang Palace?"
"Next, you just need to recover well. Don't think too much about anything. Even if the sky falls, we will support you first!"
Ling Yufei finally smiled, as if a ray of sunshine shone into this cave space.
At this moment, her heart finally relaxed completely.
It has been a relief for months.
