The Otherworldly God

Chapter 326

Bai Zhi sat on a stone in a remote corner of the Lezheng compound. The night wind was like a knife, cutting through the pain and confusion in her heart. Her hair fluttered in the wind, just like her mood at the moment, chaotic and helpless.

The Bai family is a family that is not as good as the best but better than the worst among Taoist families. This is inseparable from the business acumen of the non-Taoists in the family. Therefore, the Bai family can make up for the lack of human strength in terms of financial resources. It can be said that the family background is prominent.

Bai Zhi, a woman who once had a distinguished family background, is now left alone. Facing the hatred of genocide, her heart is filled with pain and confusion.

Bai Zhi knew that they did not want to fall into the abyss of revenge. If one person fought against a family without sufficient strength, it would be easy to sink or fail.

But faced with the hatred of killing one's father and mother and exterminating one's entire family, who can say such magnanimous words as to let it go?

Bai Zhi looked at her hands with tears in her eyes. She wanted to ask her parents what to do, but in the end she could only cover her face and cry.

Bai Zhi thought of her own magic and stared at her palm again. "If it wasn't for this magic... why did I have to inherit my mother's healing skills? My father is also a Taoist, why did I... if I hadn't been seen by others, I wouldn't have..."

Bai Zhi seemed to see her hands covered in blood in a trance, which frightened her.

"You are Miss Yun, right?"

Suddenly, a steady voice came from behind, making Bai Zhi, who had just been frightened, turn even paler.

"Who?"

Bai Zhi turned around suddenly and saw a man standing not far behind her. In the moonlight, she recognized that he was Le Zhenghe, whom she had met before.

When he first met him, Bai Zhi marveled at the magic of the Taoist family. Even a few years' age difference could make people feel the difference in generation. Just like Le Zhengzhi, he was of the same generation as him, one generation older than Le Zhengzuosi and Le Zhengyangyan, and Le Zhenghe was even Le Zhengzuosi's apprentice.

Although he was young, his eyes sparkled with a deep and wise light that seemed to have experienced many vicissitudes of life. His black hair fell like a waterfall, swaying gently in the breeze, and contrasting with the bright moonlight.

He had a handsome face, and his sword-like eyebrows and star-like eyes revealed a touch of extraordinary grace and charm. He was wearing a green long gown, the corners of which fluttered in the wind, as if blending perfectly with the vast night. And on his slender waist hung an ancient and elegant long sword.

Bai Zhi calmed down and bowed, saying, "Bai Zhi greets you, Senior."

"No need to be polite."

Le Zhenghe waved his hand and transformed into tables and chairs, as well as a pot of tea and cups. Bai Zhi was from a Taoist family after all, so just by looking at his ability to create objects out of thin air, one could get an idea of ​​his strength.

"Please come in, Miss Yun."

"He doesn't look like he met me by chance. Could it be that the three of them asked him to come and advise me? What nosy fellows."

"I heard Zos talk about you. He said you are a strong and talented woman."

Bai Zhi seemed a little shocked, because Le Zhengzuosi didn't look like the kind of person who would praise himself to others, and she actually felt a little embarrassed.

Bai Zhi smiled bitterly, "Senior, you are too kind. Now I am just a homeless orphan."

"Miss Yun, why are you so pessimistic?" Le Zhenghe consoled her, "Life will always experience some twists and turns and hardships, but these are all part of the process of growth. Only after experiencing pain and confusion can we become stronger and more mature."

Bai Zhi just felt that he spoke easily. He obviously didn't seem much older than her, especially if calculated by real age, he might not be older than her. Time does not pass in Peach Blossom Valley.

Bai Zhi suppressed her emotions and replied, "I agree that going through some twists and turns and hardships can help people grow, but I...what I've experienced is no longer just twists and turns and hardships. I carry the hatred of my clan being exterminated, and I can't let go of this hatred."

"Hatred is a double-edged sword. It can hurt others as well as yourself." Le Zhenghe said slowly, "Miss Yun, do you know that sometimes letting go of hatred is not weakness, but a kind of wisdom and courage."

Bai Zhi shook her head, thinking that he spoke so casually and ridiculously, as if he didn't care about the matter.

"Letting go of hatred? That's easier said than done. The hatred for my parents' murder alone is deep enough, and I am carrying the deep hatred for the extermination of my father's and mother's clans. How can I forget that?"

"Miss Yun, hatred will only make you fall into deeper pain and difficulties." Le Zhenghe said earnestly, "You can try to find other ways to solve the problem, such as seeking..."

"Seeking the Dao League? If the Dao League could bring me justice, my mother clan would not have suffered a catastrophic disaster. Until now, the Dao League has not done anything and nothing has happened. Tuoba is not in any trouble."

"You are indeed the orphan of the Bai family."

Le Zhenghe drank the water calmly.

Bai Zhi wanted to refute, but after seeing his calmness, she knew it was pointless to refute.

"Now that you know the truth, you can offer me to Tuoba or hand me over to the Dao League. It's all up to you."

Bai Zhi turned in another direction, but she was actually still a little worried that he would really hand her over.

"I have a good personal relationship with your father. Your features are most similar to his."

Bai Zhi then realized that he had already suspected her, which was not so important. It was his words "we have a good personal relationship" that made Bai Zhi stand up.

"A good personal relationship? I would rather you just met. Let me ask you, where were you when our Bai family was plotted against by the Tuoba family? Even if Jimen Pass is far away, you didn't know about it for a while and couldn't catch up, which is excusable. What happened later? The Dao League has been in an uproar for a long time, right? Le Zheng also has people in Fengwu City, have you asked them to say a few fair words for us? No, right? Whether it was when the incident happened or afterwards, you didn't show the attitude that an old friend should have."

Le Zhenghe frowned at her accusation and explained helplessly: "It happened that my master had just passed away and I took over the entire Le Zheng. If not for this, I would have rushed over long ago."

"What happened afterwards? What about Fengwu City?"

Le Zhenghe sighed helplessly again, stood up, and paced back and forth for a while.

"Le Zheng's situation is not what you see. Owning Jimen Pass is not an honor or a reward, but a punishment.

During the war between gods and demons, my Le Zheng family was one of the Taoist families that participated in the war, and we are still alive today. This should be considered a great honor, but it is not the case. We, Le Zheng, have been struggling to be a traitor until now, and are trying to get rid of that hat.

After so many years, nothing has happened! One wrong step, all wrong steps. Le Zheng can be said to have only made that one mistake, but it is still remembered today. Many of our ancestors had long since given up on this Jimen Pass.

Do you know why, compared to the more easily contested Donghai Pavilion, Jimen Pass is the last thing other Taoist families consider, or even not considered at all? Because, to the south of Jimen Pass is the demon race, which is said to be the strongest race second only to the gods, and the old enemy of our human race. "
