Chapter 1036: Leaving without Saying Goodbye

Ye Zhichen took Fang Junnan to survive the tribulation, saying that they were going to a safe place where no one was around. Even Li Chuyi was not told the specific location, and Liu Mingxiu was also left behind.

Before leaving, Ye Zhichen told him not to make trouble and to wait until he came back to talk about anything. At first, he thought that Uncle Ye was just giving him a routine instruction, but when he excitedly came to Taixu Peak to find Yu Yao, the empty mansion made his heart sink into the bottomless abyss.

The small building remained the same, with the fragrance of flowers and the chirping of birds. The elegant mansion had not changed at all, but the people in the yard had disappeared, becoming a little lonely and unpopular.

Where did Yu Yao go?

Li Chuyi's heart was full of mixed thoughts, and a bad feeling kept surging, and panic filled his heart.

Was she taken away by Mo Tang?

Or did she leave Taixu Palace and go to Shiwandashan to find him?

Or did she leave Taixu Palace but not look for him, but wander around the world alone?

Li Chuyi didn't know that his heart was in a mess. His brain, which used to be bright, seemed to be filled with mud. No matter how he stirred it, it was full of bad thoughts.

Footsteps sounded behind him. Xiaoyu came over after hearing the news. The moment she saw Li Chuyi, she immediately saw tears in her eyes. She quickened her pace and trotted to Li Chuyi's side, but stopped after getting close. Her little face was full of timidity.

"Chuyi?"

The voice was a little trembling. Li Chuyi's body was shocked and he slowly turned around.

"Is it really you?!"

In the sad voice, Xiaoyu, who had completely grown into a big girl, rushed over and plunged into Li Chuyi's arms, punching him like raindrops.

"Why did you come back just now! Didn't we agree to come back in a year? Why did you come back just now, you liar!"

Li Chuyi was silent, letting Xiaoyu's fists hit him, neither hugging nor coaxing, just standing there stiffly.

Xiaoyu said he was a liar, he didn't refute or explain, because he also thought Xiaoyu was right.

Even if there was a reason, he was helpless. He hated his broken promise as much as Xiaoyu did.

Yu Yao was gone, and Xiaoyu was like this again. Even a fool would know that something must have happened.

"Where is she?"

Li Chuyi's voice trembled slightly.

"Is she...dead?"

"No, Senior Sister is not dead!"

Xiaoyu shook her head hurriedly. The heavy nasal sound after crying sounded like heavenly music in Li Chuyi's ears, and his stiff body suddenly relaxed a little.

"It's good that she's not dead, it's good that she's not dead! Where is she? Was she taken away by Mo Tang? Don't cry, it's okay. If your father doesn't want her back, I'll go get her back for you!"

"No, no, it's not Mo Tang! Senior Sister... Senior Sister ran away from home!"

His mind was blank, and a strong sense of uneasiness surged into his heart.

"Where did she go?"

"Maybe Dayan."

"Maybe? What's going on?"

"It's like this."

Xiaoyu wiped her tears, her eyes sad.

"You know, Senior Sister was seriously injured on Lingxiao Peak that day, and was finally rescued by Yu Hao, who released her back. Because of this incident, there have been rumors in Taixu Palace that Senior Sister was a tactic left by Yu Hao, so that Taixu Palace would not dare to kill her even though they knew her identity. After you left, Mo Tang has been investigating spies, and Senior Sister naturally became their target. Because you intervened once, Mo Tang did not dare to go too far at the beginning, but you never came back, and the people in Mo Tang became more and more excessive. Later, they even wanted to take Senior Sister back and torture her, but my father came out to stop them and they gave up."

"Your father didn't care?" Li Chuyi frowned and asked.

Xiao Yu's expression darkened: "My father can't protect himself, and he can't manage it even if he wants to. After that chaos, the three ancestors were extremely dissatisfied with my father, thinking that he didn't know how to judge people and govern. There were even rumors that they wanted to replace my father with someone to take charge of Taixu Palace, but the three ancestors never expressed their opinions, so it didn't come true. Although my father is still the head of the sect, the power in his hands is not as much as before. The three ancestors took Mo Tang back from him and took charge of it personally. In fact, my father has been sidelined except for the daily operation of Taixu Palace. Mo Tang is the eyes of Taixu Palace. Without his eyes, my father, the head of the sect, is a blind man. What kind of head is he!"

Li Chuyi was silent.

He could understand the actions of the three Taixu ancestors. The sect had such a big chaos, and the source of the chaos was the head of the sect's eldest disciple. Lu Heng was entrusted with an important task to succeed him as the next head of the sect in the future. No matter what, Lu Heng was to blame. It was good that he didn't dismiss him from the position of head of the sect on the spot.

In the eyes of outsiders, he is the leader who has all the power in the world. In fact, Li Chuyi knows, and he knows that he is just a jack of all trades. The three ancestors at the top are the ones who really control Taixu Palace. All major matters must be decided by the three of them.

Taixu Palace has many outstanding people, so there is no problem in finding a candidate to replace Lu Heng. In the past, only one of the three ancestors of Taixu was active outside, and Lu Heng had a good family background and had never made any big mistakes. Baijie Taoist would naturally not change the leader randomly.

Now that the three ancestors have come out together, and Lu Heng has made a big mistake again, with them in the upper position, there will be no turmoil if Lu Heng is replaced by someone else to take over the position of the leader. If Lu Heng dares to resist, he will only be charged with "disrespecting the ancestral order", "forming a clique for personal gain", "disrupting the sect", etc. It is not impossible to even directly say that he colluded with Dayan to deliberately shield Yu Hao.

Therefore, no matter what the Third Ancestor did, Lu Heng could only let it go. Now he only has his ears and eyes, and his people are still in the position of the leader. This is the mood of the Third Ancestor to take care of him.

Li Chuyi understood Lu Heng's mood very well and also understood what the Third Ancestor did. He would do the same thing if it were him.

Running such a large sect is not like a child's play house. It can be said that Feng Feng talks about Yu Yu's wanton emotions.

The Taoist priest said that no matter how big or small, any force needs a corresponding power structure to maintain it. The entire structure is like the parts of a clever machine. The more core the part, the more it needs to be carefully crafted and treated with care. Once problems arise, It must be maintained and replaced in time, otherwise the entire structure will be destroyed.

Lu Heng is currently the one with the problem. There is a problem but it can still be used, so he put it aside for a while and observed it for a while.

Lu Heng was obviously aware of his situation and had the idea of ​​continuing to be the leader, so he did not interfere with Mo Tang's actions until he had no choice but to stop him.

I can understand it intellectually, but I cannot accept it emotionally.

If it were Li Chuyi himself, he would definitely keep his apprenticeship instead of his position.

Fortunately, Lu Heng kept talking about treating Yu Yao like his own daughter. At this time, he still cared about power and position and gave up his daughter. Li Chuyi felt full of contempt in his heart, feeling that he was not worthy of carrying shoes for a Taoist priest. He firmly believes that no matter what situation the Taoist priest encounters, even when faced with the choice of life and death, he will never give up on himself. The Taoist priest treats him like his own son.

Thinking of this, he suddenly felt sick.

Bah, how can you compare like this? You don’t deserve it!

Through Li Chuyi's expression, Xiao Yu vaguely guessed what he was thinking, and his face became darker, but he did not defend himself.

Because she herself had some opinions about her father, she believed that Lu Heng's behavior played a large role in why her senior sister ran away.

"Go on, what happened next?" Li Chuyi said.

Xiaoyu sighed softly.

"Later, this matter was investigated for more than 20 years. It was only after no investigation was found that Mo Tang finally admitted that Senior Sister had no problem and let her go. Mo Tang let her go, but others did not. Not only did the rumors not The pause only intensified, and all kinds of unpleasant slanders came out one after another. My senior sister was directly said to be an incompetent person, saying that she was because...because...in short, it was very unpleasant to hear. We always talk and laugh in front of me, but how can she feel comfortable in her heart? She is a noble person, and she never bothers to refute those mean words. Over time, people say that her disdain is just a pretense. . It’s just an old man in the sect. The new disciples don’t know, so the three of them pretended to be real. I fought countless fights for this, but they...they...!"

Raising his hand to hold Xiao Yu's words back, Li Chuyi asked with a gloomy face: "Is this why your senior sister ran away?"

Xiao Yu nodded, took out a letter from her arms and handed it to Li Chuyi.

Li Chuyi took it and opened it gently. Juanxiu's handwriting was exactly that of Yu Yao.

There were only two lines of characters on it, and the writing was smooth and fat, but Li Chuyi felt a slight hint of depression in the lines.

It's hard to resolve the knot in my heart, let's part ways for now. After settling the grudges, one should return to Taixu.

Say goodbye without saying goodbye, don’t blame me, don’t look for me.

Holding the paper, Li Chuyi was filled with anger.

He was not angry at Yu Yao for leaving without saying goodbye, he was angry at Taixu Palace.

The majestic Taixu Palace, a huge sect, such a big living person escaped, and no one noticed it?

He didn't believe that no one was watching Yu Yao. If Mo Tang really gave up when he said he gave up, it would not be Mo Tang. With their monitoring of Tianmen Mountain, how could Yu Yao leave Tianmen Mountain silently? !

He knew Mo Tang's thoughts very well, and he was definitely conniving on purpose!

Regardless of whether Yu Yao is from Dayan or not, her relationship with Yu Hao will always be a stain that she can't erase. Now that she wants to leave, Mo Tang is naturally happy to see it happen and will give up this hidden danger. Out of sight is pure.

As for Yu Yao's whereabouts, he knew it all with his ass.

After she settles her grudges, what kind of grudges can she have? Isn't she just Dayan or Yuwen Taihao?

Damn it, this girl is going to kill someone!

Yu Yao is very intellectual, but also very arrogant. After being treated coldly and even humiliated to such an extent, her decision was not surprising.

"On the first day of junior high school, there is something I don't know whether I should tell you or not." Xiaoyu said hesitantly.

Li Chuyi was getting angry. Hearing this, his eyes suddenly widened: "Say!"

"The second senior brother told me that he heard the third senior brother say once that someone from Motang found his senior sister for the last time. After that, the senior sister became a little abnormal. She frowned every day and was often in a daze when no one was around. Third Senior Brother The senior brother asked her several times, but she shook her head and said it was nothing. It was not until the senior sister left the third senior brother that she realized something was wrong, and she left Taixu Palace in anger to look for the senior sister. "

"You said Hai Wufeng left too? He went after Yu Yao?"

Xiao Yu nodded and said worriedly: "The third senior brother guessed that the senior sister went to Dayan, so he went to Dayan alone regardless of the master's dissuasion. The second senior brother also wanted to go, but the third senior brother persuaded him to stay alone. He took care of me and my father. Junior year, where are you?"

Li Chuyi dodged away with murderous intent, and Xiao Yu hurriedly picked up her clothes and followed.

She felt vaguely that she seemed to have said something she shouldn't have said.
