The Peerless Beauty Stuck With Me

Tang Rao always thought of himself as a proud youth, but A Ji seemed even more flamboyant~~ "The way you say it, I really don't know how to respond."

"Now I'm going to leave," A Ji said again.

"Just got here and you're leaving already, don't you want to hang out for a bit longer?" Tang Rao finally responded.

"This Array Barrier, I can't break it, I'll go back and bring more people to smash it. Sect Master Tang, I think, if you surrender directly, it would be better, so we can avoid some unnecessary casualties," A Ji said seriously.

In A Ji's view, Kao Shan Sect was already a lost cause, continuing this stubborn resistance was pointless.

Your Sect Protection Array is very powerful, I can't break through it. But there's always someone who can, and when that happens, you'll still be wiped out.

Kao Shan Sect no longer has any strong cultivators, He Kaoshan is dead, the strongest in Kao Shan Sect is probably a Fifth Layer Heavenly Immortal.

What use is a Fifth Layer Heavenly Immortal?

"A Ji, tell me, isn't it impolite to not reciprocate?" Tang Rao suddenly asked.

"Yes." A Ji thought for a moment and then nodded.

"Well, then you've attacked my Sect's Great Formation for ten minutes, shouldn't I also retaliate for ten minutes? In this way, it won't seem like you are rude and uneducated? You hit and then leave, that doesn't really make sense," Tang Rao continued, A Ji was an interesting person, and dealing with such a person required a strange way of thinking.

A Ji began to blink, he wanted to refute Tang Rao's words, but after thinking about it, it seemed to make sense.

"Alright then, I'll stand still, and you can retaliate for ten minutes. After ten minutes, I'll leave, this way, I won't be considered impolite." A Ji nodded his head, and actually agreed.

Lu Jun, standing to the side, was baffled by their logic, ah yo hey, I can't quite follow your thought process.

"Then get ready, I'm starting," Tang Rao nodded and then communicated with the Array.

Of course, Tang Rao wouldn't personally go out to confront A Ji, A Ji was an Eighth Layer Heavenly Immortal, even if he just stood there letting me do whatever, he probably wouldn't get hurt.

So, it's still better to use the Array.

Tang Rao also wanted to see if the Array he had worked so hard on could threaten an Eighth Layer Heavenly Immortal.

...

"Bang!" Eight minutes later, A Ji's face suddenly turned black and then he dropped to the ground with a thud, his head hitting the floor, and his body still half upright, looking very defiant.

Lu Jun was dumbfounded, A Ji was an Eighth Layer Heavenly Immortal, what the heck happened? Just went down like that?

Yet, he couldn't see what Tang Rao had done.

"Oh yo, the power of the Array is beyond imagination," Tang Rao couldn't help but be surprised at this time.

This Sect Protection Array, he not only built a Defensive Array, but also various attacking, confusing, and even poisonous Arrays.

Within eight minutes, he had used all these methods, and then A Ji just went down.

However, this was also because A Ji kept standing still and did not even use the Immortal Power to resist, so that's why this happened.

Thinking about it, this Array could probably only handle up to Seventh Layer Heavenly Immortal level.

The Eighth and Ninth Layers, still a bit difficult.

"Idiot, carry that man back," Tang Rao said to the idiot standing nearby.

"Uh-huh!" The idiot smiled, nodded, and then ran over, grabbed A Ji, and carried him into the Great Formation.

A Ji was obviously poisoned, and the idiot had a sort of innate resistance to poison, having the idiot carry A Ji was the best solution.

...

Two hours later, A Ji woke up, and when he opened his eyes, he saw the spiral-patterned ceiling.

A Ji did not struggle, nor did he try to get up, he even had no intention of escaping.

The ceiling of my own home is vertical, and clearly, I've been imprisoned. Given that someone has imprisoned me, they must have taken full precautionary measures, making escape quite unlikely.

To those who say things like, "how do you know if you don't try?" A Ji is contemptuous.

Because many times, trying only leads you to greater despair.

"Awake yet?" Tang Rao's voice came into the room half a minute after A Ji opened his eyes.

Yes, Tang Rao had been sitting in the room all along, holding a cup of hot tea that was steaming.

A Ji turned his head to look at Tang Rao, who was also looking at him.

"I lost." A Ji pursed his lips, he attacked the Sect Protection Array of Kao Shan Sect for ten minutes, and there was not a single crack in it within those minutes; whereas, when he let Tang Rao attack him for ten minutes, he fainted during the eighth minute.

Clearly, he had lost.

"Yes." Tang Rao stood up, "As for why I didn't just kill you right away, what do you think is the reason?"

"I don't know," A Ji answered.

"A Ji, actually, I'm not really a fan of fighting and killing. Everyone only lives once, and no one has the right to deprive others of their lives, wouldn't you agree?" Tang Rao asked with a smile.

A Ji remained silent, neither nodding nor shaking his head.

"If you think what I'm saying is wrong, you can tell me."

"What you're saying is wrong," A Ji stated frankly, shaking his head, "You can take my life at any moment. This kind of thing is decided by victory or defeat, guided by strength and weakness."

Tang Rao was stunned, unable to refute once again.

"Alright, let's not talk about that. I'll give you two choices, first: I cripple your cultivator abilities and send you back to Yijian Sect; second: you follow me and become my A Ji."

"But, both options lead to death," A Ji suddenly said after a long silence.

Tang Rao was puzzled; the second option was clearly a good one.

"If I lose my cultivator abilities, Master Jin will kill me as he never shelters the useless; if I follow you, and Kao Shan Sect gets taken down, I would be killed just the same, Master Jin also dislikes traitors. So, no matter what, I'm dead, might as well kill me now!" A Ji said.

Tang Rao: "..."

Can't you have a little faith in me?

"Who wins and who loses is still uncertain. Aren't you an Eighth Layer Heaven Immortal, yet you were captured by me?" Tang Rao muttered.

"That's not the same, Kao Shan Sect has a Space Treasure, when the time comes, cultivators from Luo Xian will arrive, and death will be even more terrible," A Ji continued.

Tang Rao frowned slightly, Space Treasure? Could A Ji be referring to the Portable Palace?

It must be, as I previously used the Portable Palace to take away about two hundred people from Kao Shan Sect.

And the feature of the Portable Palace that it can carry living beings is incredibly against the natural order, he asked Lu Jun, and Lu Jun responded with four words: "to possess is a crime."

Clearly, exposing the Portable Palace is a significant risk and disaster.

"Do you have anything else to persuade me? If not, just kill me," A Ji looked at Tang Rao with a calm face.

Tang Rao was silent; A Ji was an Eighth Layer Heaven Immortal, capturing him would be very important for Kao Shan Sect.

What a waste it would be to kill him.

"What's your surname?" Tang Rao suddenly looked up at A Ji.

A Ji was stunned for a moment, his eyes showing confusion, pain, struggle, anguish...

"From now on, your surname will be 'Qiu,' let's call you Qiu Ji," Tang Rao said.

"Okay, Sect Master," suddenly, a smile appeared on A Ji's face.
