Su Guang was ruthless to himself. He seemed to trust He Qing very much. He did not leave himself any way out when breaking the forbidden spell and sealing her sea of consciousness. As a result, when he forced the demonic energy to scare her just now, his body suffered considerable backlash damage.
Although He Qing could reduce Su Guang's pain during the repair process, she did not intend to do so.
As He Qing reshaped the forbidden spell for Su Guang, he chuckled and thought: As a master, I have to teach my apprentice to bear the consequences, right? This is definitely not to avenge Su Guang's previous actions.
About three hours later, the forbidden spell was barely restored to its original shape. He Qing stopped working and breathed a sigh of relief. He shook his head and said, "This is the only way. Spells are not my forte."
Su Guang, who did not cry out in pain the entire time, slowly raised his eyes and stared at the sweat on He Qing's forehead. For some reason, he reached out and wiped away some of the sweat for her, and whispered, "Do you really want to be infected by my scent?"
The forbidden spell could not be completely repaired. Whenever Su Guang practiced his skills, even if he was just controlling a weapon, it was very likely that demonic energy would be emitted. Therefore, He Qing relied on his ability to assimilate demonic energy and guided the demonic energy that was scattered among Su Guang's normal breath into his own body.
Although Su Guangming knew the reason, he deliberately made his words ambiguous.
But He Qing was already used to Su Guang saying something to skirt the issue from time to time, so he followed suit and sighed to the sky, "What a sinner! If it wasn't for covering up for an unfilial disciple like you, why would I, as your master, allow myself to fall into depravity!"
Su Guang was not amused, but looked at He Qing with deep eyes——
He knew very well that He Qing's actions over the past few hours must have consumed a lot of her energy, and she was not as relaxed as she appeared.
This woman wasn't very good at pretending to be sick, but she was great at pretending to be fine.
Su Guang couldn't help but feel curious about this. Was He Qing's consistent reaction because he didn't want the people around him to worry, or because he didn't want to be caught and taken advantage of?
If it was the former, it was understandable. If it was the latter...
That is, even he, the one with whom he had an alliance, was no longer trusted.
Thinking of this, Su Guang couldn't help but snort in his heart.
He Qing adjusted his internal breath, got off the bed with backache, removed the barrier, stretched his body and said: "Okay, from now on you don't have to avoid the people from Yuling Palace anymore. As long as they don't come into direct contact with your sea of consciousness, they won't be able to discover your identity."
Suguang tilted his head and looked at her leisurely: "What about you?"
"Me?" He Qing pushed open the window, turned around and smiled like a villain: "Who can access my sea of consciousness?"
Su Guang also laughed: "I like the way Master looks when he is successful."
He Qing was slightly startled, and his heart suddenly skipped a beat——
This was the first time she saw Suguang smile like this, bright and warm, like the warm sunshine in spring, accompanied by a slight breeze. The sunlight outside the window passed through the treetops, casting mottled shadows in the house, with a little dust flying in the dim light, and scattered starlight, making Suguang look like he was covered with a filter called "beauty".
Hallucination! It's all hallucination! Lu Li's face has a base, but how could Su Guang's face, which looks like a fairy, have such a filter? !
He Qing came back to his senses and was about to speak when he felt his throat tighten. He coughed unconsciously and said, "I'm going to the main peak to see Master Xuan Qing first. I'm leaving." After that, he disappeared from the spot, as if he was running away.
Su Guang leaned leisurely on the bed rail, looking at the window that only had the courtyard view, and murmured with a deepening smile: "So Master likes this kind."

He Qing flew a long way away before she felt her whole face getting hot and her heart beating wildly. She covered her chest and thought in fear: Fortunately, I was determined and did not reveal my orientation, otherwise I don't know how that guy would control me in the future...
He Qing has always had a very clear self-awareness when it comes to her preferences in men, which are three points: good-looking, kind, and warm.
To sum it up, he is a good person.
The reason why He Qing, who loves appearance, accepted Lu Li as his apprentice was largely because of his good looks. Lu Li also has a harmless and innocent face. So even if He Qing knew his true identity, he would still be more tolerant when facing Lu Li's face.
Su Guang is different. He is good-looking, but you can tell at first glance that he is not a good person. He is like a poppy flower. No matter how beautiful it is, He Qing will consider its toxicity first and cannot simply appreciate its appearance.
But at that moment, He Qing was actually killed by Su Guang's face...
He Qing criticized himself harshly, then regrouped, switched to combat mode and came to Tianshu Gate.
Xuan Qingzi had rested for a whole night and a morning and was basically fine. He originally wanted to ask He Qing to come over, but he didn't expect her to be so self-conscious.
After the other leaders, Yuntian and Chen Sanyi were notified and came, a new round of meetings began.
Xuan Qingzi asked: "Master Chen, what do you think?"
Chen Sanyi smiled and said, "Master Xuanqing, it's not that I don't want you to enter our forbidden area, it's all because of the sect rules and oaths." After saying that, without giving Xuanqingzi a chance to speak again, he directly said to Heqing, "Did Master Heqing deal with the half-demon?"
He Qing looked at his hypocritical appearance and said expressionlessly: "I'm sorry to disappoint Taoist Chen. There are no half-demons in my Yaoguang Sect. There are only my disciples."
Chen Sanyi acted quite emotional and said, "It is really admirable that Sect Master He Qing protects his disciples so much, but the stay of this half-demon in Lingshan is a stain on all the immortal sects."
What Chen Sanyi said was exactly what the other four peaks' leaders were worried about. They couldn't help but look embarrassed. Yun Tian from Guanghan Sect nodded and said, "Yes, those monsters have always used unorthodox methods to practice. I'm afraid they are not suitable to stay in the immortal sect."
He Qing seemed puzzled and said, "I really don't remember that the immortal sect does not allow monsters to enter. Is there any record in the classics?"
Yun Tian hesitated to speak, wanting to say that this was the unwritten rule of the Immortal Sect. Where should I find the classics? But considering that the other four peaks had not expressed their opinions, he temporarily endured it.
But Chen Sanyi continued, "What a coincidence! There is indeed a book in my Yuling Palace that records the story of a wolf demon who entered the immortal sect thousands of years ago. According to the book, the wolf demon eventually slaughtered all his master and rebelled against the immortal path after killing his master. Would Sect Leader Heqing like to borrow it to have a look?"
He Qing glared at him for a moment and sneered, "Master Chen is really thoughtful. Since your Yuling Palace was established, no one has ever broken through to the high level. Master Chen doesn't think about how to improve his skills, but still worries about my Yaoguang Sect. It's really touching."
