The main general was dead, and the remaining people in North City were just a group of scattered sand. Qi Zhixing didn't even need to take action, as they were in chaos on their own.
But it takes some time to process.
Lin Zhuo handed the pill to Qi Zhixing and asked him to handle the rest of the matters himself while he himself went back to the sect.
Qi Zhixing looked at him. He also wanted to go back with Lin Zhuo, but he still had a lot of things to deal with at the moment. He was reluctant but could only nod and agree.
Lin Zhuo rubbed his face helplessly. It was not like he would not come back, so who was he pretending to be like this for!
Lin Zhuo packed up the things he was going to take back. He did not ask Qi Zhixing to do it for him, but took some time to cross the boundary between the two worlds and return to the world of cultivation.
When he returned to the sect, he heard that the first place winner of this Haiyue Ceremony was Lu Mian.
Without Su Ziqi, Lin Zhuo felt that it was only natural that the first place fell to another protagonist.
However, when they were counting the number of people, they found that the talented Su Ziqi was missing. Several venerables even entered the secret realm to investigate, but returned empty-handed. They could only conclude that Su Ziqi might have met with an accident.
But when they asked Cang Yunze if he had any way to know Su Ziqi's condition, Cang Yunze was particularly silent, and in the end he just shook his head.
Now that things have come to this, they can only sigh that God is jealous of talented people.
Fortunately, Lu Mian was good enough, and they soon began to sigh that Lin Zhuo had a good vision and had accepted a good apprentice.
When Cang Yunze and Xu Zisu were about to return to the sect with their disciples, almost everyone was waiting eagerly at the sect gate.
"Don't you want to go and have a look?"
Venerable Taixu and Lin Zhuo were playing chess in the room. Beside him were the specialties that Lin Zhuo had collected from all over the Demon Realm. Lin Zhuo asked him to distribute these things to everyone.
Lin Zhuo dropped a piece and shook his head: "It might not be very popular."
After all, both he and Cang Yunze knew that no matter what choice they made, that incident would completely separate them.
"Are you really leaving?" Taixu changed the subject and looked at Lin Zhuo. Taixu had always been very fond of his youngest disciple.
"Master also knows that the cultivation world does not have a high acceptance of the demons. I cannot ruin the reputation of our sect for Qi Zhixing, so I have no choice but to marry into the demon world." Lin Zhuo pouted and spread his hands.
"Actually..." Taixu really wanted to tell him that he had many other options.
But before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by Lin Zhuo.
"I know what Master means, but there will be no one else except him." Lin Zhuo's attitude was as firm as ever.
Taixu looked at him deeply and found that his expression was still serious. In the end, he could only sigh.
"Forget it, whatever you want. Remember to come back and visit later." Taixu waved at him, motioning him to go.
Lin Zhuo placed the last piece, then stood up, bowed to Taixu, and turned to leave.
