The atmosphere in the room was so depressing that it was almost hard to breathe.
Mu Yunqing stood there, emitting surging anger from his whole body. An ant standing within three feet would be frozen to death.
Ji Yao tried her best to explain to her master: "Master, that Kang Xiao is a scum, a scum! But Master, please believe me, I am definitely not that kind of person. I have always followed your teachings."
However, the master just sneered, as if to say: You are not? Then how did I get seriously injured and poisoned by the Hehuan Powder, and have to end up like this?
It’s over. That cold laugh sent chills down Ji Yao’s spine.
She was already on the verge of life and death, and Kang Xiao's fuss was just adding fuel to the fire.
Ji Yao was afraid that the past would be brought up again, so she quickly came up with an idea and made an excuse: "Master, I saw that you didn't eat anything tonight, so you must be hungry. I'll go get you something to eat!"
After saying that, he slipped out without waiting for Mu Yunqing's response.
She asked the kitchen staff to make some light and delicious vegetarian dishes, but eating only vegetarian food was not enough, so she also made a bowl of century egg and lean meat porridge.
Ji Yao walked lightly through the quiet garden, when suddenly, a fierce argument broke the silence.
"Dad, why do you insist on cooperating with the notorious Hehuan Sect? Let them humiliate our sect." This angry voice undoubtedly belonged to Yue Ling.
Ji Yao sensed something was wrong and quickly restrained her breath, as silent as a falling leaf.
She quietly looked out and saw Yue Ling arguing with her father not far away.
They were in a secluded location, away from the hustle and bustle of the banquet hall, so the conversation between father and daughter seemed unreserved and full of true feelings.
Yue Ling said anxiously, "We are colluding with such a notorious and morally corrupt sect. This will do us no good but only harm to the future development of our sect."
Sect Leader Yue looked at his daughter, his eyes showing both love and helplessness: "Hey, how could a father not know how powerful the Ling Xiao Sect is? But you know that the Ling Xiao Sect is now unable to take care of itself."
Yue Ling frowned, looking confused: "Father, what do you mean?"
Sect Leader Yue lowered his voice, revealing a bit of heaviness in his words: "A spy just sent a message that the gifted Immortal Yun Qing is not in seclusion, but... is missing!"
"What? How is this possible?" Yue Ling's body shook violently.
Sect Master Yue sighed and continued, "Not only that, Yun Qingxianzun's junior sister Hua Man has also disappeared. I guess her experience is probably not much different from the tragedy of the Tianyi Sect's female cultivator..."
"Didn't the Lingxiao Sect go looking for them?" Yue Ling asked anxiously.
"We have looked for it, but we can't find it! Even the spy from the Hehuan Sect that we caught earlier has escaped... The Hehuan Sect is omnipresent, maybe our sect is also..."
He explained earnestly: "Therefore, my daughter, our cooperation with the Hehuan Sect is the wisest choice."
"The three major sects of Hehuan Sect, Liantianyi, Longwu, and Lingxiao, are all involved in an endless vortex. This battle is inevitable."
“Those big sects may be able to stand firm in this storm, but for small sects like us, instead of blindly jumping into this melee, it is better to take this opportunity to accumulate strength and wait for the right time.”
"Although the Foundation Building Pill and the Pre-Spiritual Leaf are precious, they are not impossible to obtain. They can be purchased at a certain price. However, the recovery of the other Five Mountains Hammer is an opportunity for the Duan Yue Sect. Have you ever thought about what kind of situation the complete Five Mountains Hammer will bring to the Duan Yue Sect?"
"Five Mountains Hammer..."
Yue Ling had heard that if the Five Mountains Hammers were a pair, they could shake the heaven and earth!
Moreover, only the complete Five Mountains Hammer will have the most complete Five Mountains Hammer Technique! By then, the strength of the Duanyue Sect will definitely be able to reach a higher level.
Even so, Yue Ling's heart still seemed to be hit hard, with complicated emotions intertwined, "But, the actions of the Hehuan Sect are known to everyone..."
Sect Master Yue shook his head slightly, his face full of vicissitudes: "Child, how can there be absolute black and white in this world? The ancestor once said that the most superior skills of the Hehuan Sect are not intended to absorb the furnace, but to complement each other and improve cultivation."
He sighed: "It's a pity that the later generations of cultivators were eager for quick success and misinterpreted its essence..."
"Hey, who is that?"
Sect Leader Yue suddenly stopped talking and slapped out with his palm -
I saw a nimble cat catch its prey and disappear in the grass in a flash.
Ji Yao had already taken the opportunity to slip away.
When she heard the news suddenly, she was completely panicked.
The spies caught by Lingxiao Sect ran away. Are you talking about Wang Su and Mo Xiaoyu?
If they returned to the Hehuan Sect, their actions would be made known to the world.
When the Hehuan Sect knew that they had given the Hehuan Powder to the Immortal Master Yun Qing, combined with the actual situation, it would be easy to guess the fact that Shishi's cauldron was Mu Yunqing!
By then, whether he had deceived the sect or Mu Yunqing's true identity was exposed, both of them would be doomed to death.
Not to mention getting the antidote! No one would let go of Yun Qingxianzun as a bargaining chip!
What can I do?
If this news were told to Mu Yunqing, would the master kill her on the spot and then cut open her elixir to cultivate magic?
Ji Yao placed the dishes on the table while thinking hard but to no avail.
She went back in a daze, and as soon as she entered the room, she met Mu Yunqing's icy cold eyes.
Ji Yao's eyes flashed with panic, and then she put on a slightly embarrassed smile: "Master... Master!"
Mu Yunqing and Zhou Shen were still as cold as ever, and the look they gave Ji Yao was also chilly.
Ji Yao felt guilty, so she quickly placed the exquisite vegetarian food on the table and put on a slightly flattering smile.
"Oh, Master...Master, please eat something first. Don't get yourself hurt by getting angry."
Ji Yao quickly put the food on the table. The tempting golden pumpkin puree was dotted with snow-white lilies, and fresh spinach was casually stir-fried. They were all simple side dishes, but they looked very appetizing.
Finally, a bowl of steaming century egg and lean meat porridge is quietly placed on the table. The tempting aroma warms the heart.
This was the first time that Mu Yunqing began to waver in his previous judgment.
The demon girl of Hehuan Sect should be cunning and sly, especially Ji Yao, who had been her disciple for more than ten years and had always been so well-behaved and obedient. Until Ji Yao severely injured herself, her expression was full of evil charm and viciousness.
She once sneered, "Master, I am enduring so much hardship! I am going crazy wanting to have you!"
That day, he used up the last bit of his strength to knock out this rebellious disciple.
However, when Ji Yao woke up again, she seemed like a different person!
Such a perfect disguise, so scary!
"Master, have something to eat."
Ji Yao's voice was as gentle as water, as if it could melt the strongest ice and snow. "Besides, only when you are full will you have the energy to supervise me in finding the antidote."
Although he had his doubts, Mu Yunqing had to admit that Ji Yao's words made some sense.
She took the porridge handed to her by Ji Yao and began to taste it in small sips.
Immediately, her indifferent eyes brightened for a moment.
You have to know that she originally had a high level of cultivation and had been practicing fasting for a long time. Few people knew her preferences.
Now that my cultivation has regressed, after taking a few bites, I actually felt warm both physically and mentally.
I didn't expect that the witch from the Hehuan Sect, who was bent on refining herself into a cauldron, would be so dedicated!
No, this is the common trick used by the evil woman of the Hehuan Sect. You still have to be careful!
But before she knew it, she had eaten a little too much.
Just as she put down her bowl and chopsticks, she suddenly heard a sharp cry for help, and the two of them rushed out the door immediately.
From a distance, I could see an unbearable scene taking place in Kang Xiao's house opposite.
A female cultivator knelt on the ground, trembling and naked: "Please let me go, please..."
"You are so lucky that I like you! If you don't serve me well today, I will peel off your skin!"
MD, Kang Xiao has not changed his bad habits. He even took advantage of the alcohol to tease the female cultivator who brought him hot water!
The female cultivator's face was filled with horror: "If you do this again, I will die!"
"Die?" Kang Xiao pulled the female cultivator's hair and pressed her down on the table with her back facing him: "I'm going to make you so comfortable that you'll want to die!"
Ji Yao clearly felt that Mu Yunqing's murderous intent was beginning to leak out, and immediately grasped his hand tightly, whispering: "Master, you can't be exposed now, let me do it!"
Mudd!
She really couldn't stand Kang Xiao, this beast!
Ji Yao made a gesture and attacked Kang Xiao directly.
Kang Xiao was caught off guard and dodged her killer move in a somewhat awkward manner. He angrily said, "Ji Yao, you want to rebel!"
Ji Yao steadied herself and was about to scold her when she saw Yue Ling rushing over and protecting the female cultivator who was delivering hot water: "Witch, this is my Duan Yue Sect, Kang Xiao, don't be so presumptuous!"
A pair of eyes seemed to be burning with rage.
"Oh, you bitch, I let you go during the day, and you dare to come back!" Kang Xiao said as he started to tear Yue Ling apart.
Yue Ling's sleeves were torn off, and she was about to slap Kang Xiao, but was blocked by Lin Yue who followed hurriedly.
"I'm afraid this is a misunderstanding!"
“You——” Yue Ling was furious: “I’m going to ask my father for justice! I can’t just let this bastard go!”
Deputy Hall Master Kang Xiao still did not repent, and said shamelessly: "Humph, it was obviously this female cultivator who seduced me. She brought me hot water in the middle of the night and wore so little. Who can I blame?"
"Everyone is wearing this, how come there is something missing?" The female cultivator was angry and anxious, her face full of grievance.
"Then why didn't someone else come to send it off, but you did?"
The female cultivator opened her mouth but felt she had no way to defend herself. She could only look at Lin Yue with hope: "Brother Lin Yue, you must seek justice for Jiaojiao."
Lin Yue's face was as gloomy as the sky covered with dark clouds. He first comforted Yue Ling softly and said, "Ling'er, Junior Sister Jiaojiao is fine now, so don't take this too seriously. We will just change a group of people to serve here."
"I don't want an ugly one!"
Kang Xiao sneered, "Besides, how can you, the Duan Yue sect, be so stingy that you don't even send two beauties. This is too insincere."
“You son of a bitch…” Yue Ling jumped angrily.
But Lin Yue pulled her into his arms: "Ling'er, stop making trouble. If you make such a loud noise, won't everyone know that Jiaojiao..."
Upon hearing this, Jiaojiao ran away crying.
But Yue Ling refused to agree. She glared at Lin Yue and argued with him loudly.
"Lin Yue, how can you be so timid?"
"But Ling'er."
Lin Yue frowned: "You only care about your own anger. Why don't you care about what Jiaojiao thinks? If you continue to spread this, she will not be able to stay in the sect."
He lowered his voice and said, "That's enough for now, let's go back!"
Lin Yue almost dragged Yue Ling away.
Kang Xiao stared at Yue Ling's twisting figure, snorted coldly, glared at Ji Yao fiercely, then turned around and went back to the room.
At this point, Ji Yao and Mu Yunqing also returned to their room.
Seeing that Mu Yunqing still had a sullen face, Ji Yao took out the medicinal bath bag that she had specially asked Lin Bugou for from Yaowang Valley.
"Master, this is the medicinal bath I asked Lin Bugou for in Medicine King Valley. It will be good for you. Let me help you bathe!"
Mu Yunqing heard this, his eyes turned cold, and he said sternly: "Get out!"
Ji Yao shrank her neck and said hurriedly: "Master, it's not that I want to take advantage of you, but some of the medicine packs need to be applied to the back, so that the effect will be better."
"How about I cover my eyes? Is that okay with you?"
Mu Yun listened, and thinking that his cultivation needed to be restored as soon as possible, he agreed.
