Yu Zhenzi, after leaving Shenxiao Mountain, did not immediately return, instead, he chose to hide in a certain place.
He knew that this mission had failed and he had exposed many secrets of the Shenxiao Sect. Not to mention, he still had a sense of Pei Xuanjing’s sword intention in him. It was an absolute failure.
Back on Shenxiao Mountain, he was constrained and helpless. With the odds against him, he had to bow down and yield to Pei Xuanjing, agreeing to be his inside connection.
However, in Yu Zhenzi’s eyes, this was all done out of desperation. He was only trying to save himself, stooping low and bearing heavy burdens. His loyalty was still with Shenxiao Sect, with whom he’d spent many years.
Therefore, he wanted to find a place for self-cultivation first and try to drive out Pei Xuanjing’s residual sword intention in him, thus freeing himself of the other’s control before returning.
Regrettably, despite Yu Zhenzi’s many efforts, Pei Xuanjing’s residual sword intention appeared to be a bone-deep affliction, almost impossible to eradicate. Moreover, every time he tried to eliminate it, the normally stable sword intention would counterattack, making Yu Zhenzi miserable.
After more than a month’s struggle, Yu Zhenzi reluctantly discovered that because of his insufficient strength he was helpless against Pei Xuanjing’s sword intention and had to confront reality.
On his way back to the master , he often thought about whether to confess everything that happened on Shenxiao Mountain to the master.
However, in the end, when he arrived, the fear of death suppressed his apprehension of the master.
“He refused and wounded me. I was lucky to escape with my life or I would have died in his custody.” Yu Zhenzi, with a face full of grief and indignation, complained to the Lord of Shenxiao Gate about his experience on Shenxiao Mountain.
