JSCMU-Chapter 115: Ferocious Beasts and Floods

After quickly checking the contents, Yun Jin’s smile became genuine right away,

“Why go to such lengths, Senior Brothers? Just coming here is enough, why bring such lavish gifts? It’s really unnecessary, truly. I’m not the type to be blinded by money.”

Yun Jin placed the storage pouch on the table. Gu Jinghong, understanding her intentions, smoothly took the pouch and put it away, every motion flowing seamlessly.

Zhou Li & Zhou Dai. “…”

Thankfully, Zhou Dai had strong mental endurance. He smiled and said,

“Junior Sister Yun, this is only appropriate. Then Second Senior Brother…”

Yun Jin immediately glanced at Gu Jinghong, “You tell them, how are things going for you here?”

Gun Gun also sneakily grabbed a strand of Gu Jinghong’s hair.

Hmph! If he dares speak nonsense, this Gun Gun will take action!

Gu Jinghong’s expression didn’t change, “Extremely well, of course. At the very least, I’m not being forced to work like a cow for Junior Sister Ye.”

Zhou Li and Zhou Dai’s expressions immediately changed.

Zhou Li couldn’t restrain himself, spoke up directly, “Second Senior Brother! Master has gone too far! She’s just a newly admitted disciple. How could she be worthy of such favoritism?”

Gu Jinghong wanted to remind the two of them, but first looked at Yun Jin’s expression.

Seeing that Yun Jin had no objection, he then calmly said, “Now, that little junior sister is Master’s most cherished darling. You two were never particularly favored to begin with. And now that I’ve become Master’s servant, if something happens to that little junior sister in the future, the ones to suffer will likely be you.”

Zhou Li and Zhou Dai couldn’t help but feel a chill in their hearts.

Unable to hold back, Zhou Dai said, “She’s already been imprisoned at He Mountain. What trouble could she possibly cause?”

“Who knows.” Gu Jinghong replied calmly. “For the sake of our brotherhood, I’ll only warn you this once. If you can stay away from her, then stay away.”

That Ye Danxia had something rather sinister about her.

Whenever she got into trouble, the ones who suffered were always those around her.

But she herself always came out unscathed.

Such a person was probably what they call the legendary star of calamity.

“This…” Zhou Dai hesitated.

Zhou Li spoke frankly, “Second Senior Brother, we have no choice either. Master won’t allow us to take on missions outside. He wants us to stay and take care of that junior sister. Even if we want to stay away from her, we probably can’t.”

Gu Jinghong raised an eyebrow. “Then that’s your own problem.”

What needed to be said, was said.

The rest was out of his hands.

Zhou Dai thought for a moment and said cautiously, “Everytime we deliver things, we’ll leave immediately and avoid talking to her too much.”

At this moment, Yun Jin lightly laughed.

“Junior Sister Yun, do you have some advice?” Zhou Dai couldn’t help but look at her.

Yun Jin said softly, “Senior Brother Zhou, the Demon-Destroying Token you two worked so hard to obtain is currently in Ye Danxia’s hands, right?”

This fact was known throughout the entire Tianxing Sect. Zhou Dai looked confused, not understanding why Yun Jin was suddenly bringing it up.

“Even though the Demon-Destroying Token was given to Ye Danxia, the original owners were you two. The token can be transferred voluntarily, but there is one condition…” Yun Jin paused, her expression unusually calm, “If the recipient of the token commits a crime related to the demon race, then the original owners are guilty as well.”

Zhou Dai’s heart trembled in shock.

The Demon-Destroying Alliance existed to combat the demon race. The alliance now included nearly all top experts, and it was the strongest force of the human race. In this alliance, other crimes might be treated leniently, but any offense related to the demon race was treated with the utmost severity.

The Demon-Destroying Token was meant to reward those who made contributions in fighting the demon race. But if the person holding the token later committed treason, the punishment would be doubled!

Even if the token was gifted, if the recipient committed a grave crime like colluding with demons, the original owner would still be punished as an accomplice.

The implication of Yun Jin’s words!

If Ye Danxia ever colluded with the demon race, the two of them would also be implicated!

Zhou Li also picked up on the meaning. He unconsciously lowered his voice. “Colluding with demons? That’s going too far, isn’t it? This is Tianxing Sect, she wouldn’t have the chance even if she wanted to.”

But Yun Jin said nothing more. She only smiled, “It was just a possibility I thought of, so I gave you a small reminder. If nothing happens, then all the better. But if she really does have contact with demons… the two senior brothers, originally heroes of the Demon-Destroying Alliance, would be dragged into the mud by her.”

Yun Jin knew.

This was not just a possibility.

If left unchecked, it would definitely happen in the future.

Considering the generous gifts from Zhou Li and Zhou Dai, Yun Jin didn’t mind giving them a small warning.

Zhou Dai stood up and cupped his hands. “No matter what, thank you for the reminder, Junior Sister Yun. We can’t stay longer. We’ll visit again when the opportunity arises.”

Yun Jin nodded.

Only then did Zhou Li and Zhou Dai leave through the side path.

Zhou Li couldn’t help but say, “Brother, aren’t this Junior Sister Yun’s words too exaggerated? No matter how bad that Junior Sister Ye is, she wouldn’t collude with the demon race, would she?”

Aside from crimes related to demons, other offenses wouldn’t implicate them.

Zhou Dai said in a deep voice, “No matter what, it’s always good to be cautious.”

His brows furrowed, and his expression darkened.

That Demon-Destroying Token was earned with their lives, but now it became a hidden danger.

They originally brought it out with joy, hoping to be rewarded by Zhao Wuji.

Who would’ve thought…

This would be the result.

Zhou Dai was now feeling a bit of a headache.

He Mountain.

He Mountain was extremely tall. In the blazing heat of summer, the peak was still covered in accumulated snow, bitterly cold.

Following Zhao Wuji’s orders, Zhou Li and Zhou Dai brought a pile of supplies.

The two stood at the entrance of the cave residence. Zhou Dai took out a bronze-colored token, and the barrier opened. They walked straight in.

Ye Danxia was hugging her knees, curled up in a corner.

There was snow in the cave as well. She was dressed in white, and the scene made her look especially pitiful.

Zhou Li’s heart unconsciously stirred. He even had the sudden urge to hold her.

But in the next moment.

Zhou Li’s expression changed.

Something wasn’t right!

He came with extreme caution, so why did he develop this strange sense of fondness at first glance?

This Junior Sister Ye must have something eerie about her!

Ye Danxia heard the sound. She looked up, her face pale and voice weak, “Senior Brothers, you… you’re here.”

That strange sense of fondness rose again.

Zhou Li and Zhou Dai exchanged a glance. Both felt something was off.

So they simply stayed at the entrance and didn’t walk in further, avoiding further contact with Ye Danxia.

Zhou Li directly tossed over a storage pouch, “Inside are some things Master prepared for you. Take a look yourself.”

After speaking, the two turned around to leave.

Ye Danxia’s expression subtly changed. She struggled to stand up, then deliberately let her leg go limp and fell down again.

On the ground, she looked pitifully at the two, “Senior Brothers… do you really hate me this much?”

Zhou Li and Zhou Dai stepped back in unison.

Ye Danxia. “……”

She’s going crazy.

Are these two senior brothers mentally unwell?

Is she really that scary?

Is it necessary to treat her like a ferocious beast or a catastrophic flood?
