Volume 2: A sudden change in the prison, a red-clothed man goes out to find a thief Chapter 171 People Always Change
"Then how can you ensure that you won't follow in He Lang's footsteps in the future?"
Under the altar, Huan Yi looked at Bai Yao'er, resisting the chill in her heart, and asked with some difficulty. In her opinion, Bai Yao'er was ultimately a disaster.
"I don't need to promise you anything." Bai Yaoer quietly shifted his gaze to her and said bluntly.
"Because you can't take me down."
"You!" A trace of anger flashed across Huanyi's face, but he couldn't say anything.
"Amitabha." At this time, Yuan Nian, who was standing aside, raised his palm and said with his head down: "In this case, we in Shaolin are willing to make concessions. As long as you hand over the people from the Demon Sect, we will not interfere in this matter anymore."
Sure enough, this is the way the Shaolin sect does things, with clear interests and disadvantages. The people in the martial arts world looked at Yuan Nian and thought so. Perhaps, this is why Yuan Nian succeeded as the abbot of Shaolin. When he went down the mountain to train that year, he was the only one who really did it, not interfering in any mundane affairs and not caring about everything.
"Okay." Bai Yaoer glanced at Yuan Nian and nodded: "You can deal with those people as you wish. I will clean up the house myself later."
When observing the Eight Bitter Sect earlier, Bai Yaoer had already discovered that the disciples in the Eight Bitter Sect could be roughly divided into two categories. One category was the old people who stayed behind in the past, most of whom had profound martial arts skills and were all inner disciples. The other category was the newcomers who had just been accepted, with varying martial arts skills, who were responsible for handling the sect's miscellaneous items and did not know much about the Eight Bitter Sect, and were considered marginal figures. But now, this has become their capital to save their lives.
With the Shaolin Sect's statement, Tang Zhong was the second to say that he did not want to get entangled in the matter anymore. The withdrawal of Shaolin and Tang Sect was undoubtedly a major blow to the Jianghu forces.
So under Bai Yaoer's coercion, the people in the martial arts world finally began to make concessions, one after another expressed that they could accept this solution. In the end, even Emei had no choice but to bow its head and compromise.
Among the crowd, Dugu Bufu's gaze lingered on Bai Yaoer's sword for a while, then he nodded, turned and left.
Yan Tingzhi looked at this incident with a complicated expression. He knew that after today, the situation in the martial arts world would undergo some changes.
After taking away the members of the Demon Sect whose identities could be identified, the people from the martial arts world gradually left, and the storm seemed to have gradually calmed down.
But everyone knew that it would not be long before a sect called the Eight Bitter Sect would appear in the martial arts world. They were all ready to inform their disciples that they must not provoke this group of people in the future.
After all, that second He Lang is no joke. Without the support of the martial arts world, who dares to say that they can defeat her alone?
But don’t tell me, maybe it really exists.
…
Li Si sat cross-legged in a room, calmed his internal breath, and slowly exhaled the foul air.
He stayed in the Eight Sufferings Gate for one more day to recuperate, and now he has finally managed to suppress his old illness.
He must have sat in the room with his eyes closed for another half an hour. The door was pushed open, a figure walked in, and Li Si slowly opened his eyes.
Compared to the dimness in the room, the light outside the door was a bit dazzling.
The person who pushed the door open was dressed in red, with a handsome face without much expression. There was a sword hanging on his waist and a bowl of porridge in his hand.
When she saw that Li Si had woken up, she was stunned for a moment, then looked around the room, sighed slightly, and spoke.
"You don't even know you're opening the window?"
After saying that, she put the bowl of porridge on the table, walked to the window and pushed it open.
The wind blowing in from the window took away the stuffiness in the room, gently ruffling the clothes and hair of the person standing by the window. The warm sunlight illuminated her cheeks, making her face look softer.
Breathing the clean air, the man turned around, looked at Li Si, smiled gently and asked.
"Do you want porridge?"
Li Si looked at her, chuckled and nodded.
"drink."
The white porridge has no taste, but it is still warm. It brings a hint of warmth when you put it in your mouth, which makes people feel very comfortable.
Bai Yaoer leaned against the table with her neck propped up, looking a little casual and lazy. For a long time, she didn't say anything, just looked at Li Si quietly, and no one knew what she was thinking.
Li Si didn't care at all. He drank the porridge in his hand slowly and without haste.
Only after seeing Li Si finish his porridge did Bai Yaoer smile and say, "You have changed a lot."
She didn't know if this was the norm in the martial arts world, but people who drifted in it would always change because of it.
"You've changed a lot too." Li Si put down the bowl of porridge and replied with a relaxed brow.
This is the truth, the Bai Yaoer today is indeed very different , both in martial arts and in the way of doing things.
But he was relieved because people change.
"I was really relieved when you forced those gangsters to retreat yesterday. I thought you would act impulsively."
Although the situation was tense, Li Si's expression was as if he was just talking about an ordinary matter. He lowered his head and placed the bowl of porridge beside the bed.
"In your eyes, do I like to act recklessly so much?" Bai Yaoer pouted slightly, seeming a little dissatisfied.
Li Si raised his head, looked her up and down, and then said with a smile.
"That's right."
"I..." Bai Yaoer raised her neck, but then looking at Li Si's expression, she couldn't help laughing.
She herself is very clear about what she was like back then.
"but."
After laughing, Bai Yaoer paused, silently moved her eyes away, no longer looking at Li Si, but asked softly towards a corner of the room.
"Why did you come up to help me then?"
"We are friends, aren't we?" Li Si answered casually. Since he had acknowledged Bai Yaoer as his friend back then, he had to be responsible for his decision.
Bai Yaoer lowered her eyes slightly, and a hint of uncertainty seemed to flash across her eyes. But then, she smiled brightly and nodded.
"Yes, we are friends. So in the future, if you get into trouble in the martial arts world again, you can mention my name."
"What's the use of your name?" Li Si said without giving any face.
"At least it's much more useful than your name." Bai Yaoer responded mercilessly.
But she still remembered the effect of Li Si's name: 95% off on stolen items.
She doesn't need to steal anything now, let alone a 5% discount.
As if he understood what she meant, Li Si raised his eyebrows and thought calmly.
Alas, if you don’t know how to save, no matter how big your family fortune is, it will be squandered sooner or later.
