He Qing couldn't help laughing, thinking that Qi Guanrui was really interesting, others brought breakfast to their loved ones, but his loved one didn't want to eat, so he brought pills.
However, this was Qi Guanrui's good intention after all, so He Qing still took it: "Thank you."
"You're welcome." Qi Guanrui's face was full of happiness, but after looking at the people in the pavilion, he unconsciously became a little lonely: "So you are protecting the disciples?"
He Qing thought that this was a misunderstanding. As long as Gu Changnian's life was not in danger, she would not care about him.
He Qing said: "No, I'm going to..."
"Master."
He Qing's words were interrupted by the sound coming from the door next door. He and Qi Guanrui looked back and were so shocked that they almost cursed.
Lu Li was leaning against the door with his hair askew, his clothes disheveled, his graceful collarbone half exposed, and he looked as if he had encountered something unspeakable.
He rubbed his eyes and stammered, "Master, why didn't you call me when you got up? Are you blaming me for falling asleep while you were serving me last night?"
He Qing took a deep breath, his expression ferocious as if he had seen a ghost: What is this guy talking about? !
Lu Li came over with sleepy eyes and held He Qing's clothes, and said timidly: "I'm sorry, Master, I was too tired last night."
He Qing clenched his fists tightly. When he went out a few minutes ago, he was still lying on the bed dressed in fine clothes. In just a short while, he became such a pitiful person who was brutally destroyed!
He really enjoyed destroying her image tirelessly.
Sure enough, when he looked at Qi Guanrui again, his astonished eyes were filled with words that outraged both humans and gods - How could you have the heart to kill someone so young?
He Qing smiled awkwardly: "It's not what you think."
Qi Guanrui quickly turned his eyes away and said dejectedly, "Uh, I, I'll go get ready to go out first, so I'll take my leave now."
"..." He Qing stood there motionless, with a wooden face, and whispered: "You are going too far each time."
In the past, he would at most say some ambiguous words that could be easily misunderstood, but now he was about to help her spread the reputation of this old pervert to the whole world!
Lu Li blinked innocently: "Master, don't be angry. I will serve you well in the future."
As for Gu Changnian over at the pavilion, he didn't know what went wrong. Suddenly his blood flowed backwards and he spit out blood. Then he immediately swung out his whisk and rushed towards the corridor.
Lu Li exclaimed and hugged He Qing tightly: "Master!"
Even if Lu Li didn't say anything, He Qing had already made her move. She blocked Gu Changnian's attack, held the whisk in her hand, and said coldly, "What are you doing? Do you want to do it again?"
Gu Changnian understood almost instantly that He Qing was referring to the knife he had stabbed into her shoulder.
Gu Changnian endured the dull pain in his dantian and said with difficulty: "Master, this boy has ruined your reputation time and time again. Do you want your disciple to watch him cause trouble?"
He Qing then realized that Gu Changnian's move was not to attack her, but to attack Lu Li. However, He Qing was more surprised at Gu Changnian's protection of her.
She let go of her whiskers and blurted out with a strange look on her face, "He ruined my reputation, what does it have to do with you?"
As soon as he said this, Gu Changnian immediately spat out another mouthful of blood. His spiritual energy dissipated and he fell down on the flying chair in the pavilion. He covered his chest and gasped for breath, with a wisp of purple air lingering between his eyebrows.
Evil spirit?!
He Qing was shocked and wanted to go forward to check, but Lu Li dragged her and refused to let go: "Master, Senior Brother is very fierce, I am very scared."
"Hey, stop it!" He Qing scolded in a low voice, hugged him with his backhand, and brought him straight to the pavilion to stop him from being pretentious.
He Qing wanted to feel Gu Changnian's pulse, but was directly blocked by him: "It's none of your business." There was a sense of disgust in his tone.
But how could He Qing let him go so easily? He didn't even bother to persuade him with a word. He just restrained him with his fingers and took his pulse.
You don't know the result until you see it. It was discovered that Gu Changnian had been troubled by this evil spirit for a long time. Judging from the time, it should have been not long since the last time the miasma entered his body.
Although the book did say that he developed evil spirits and inner demons at that time, He Qing later forgot about it when he saw that he was doing fine as usual.
But what is going on now?
He Qing frowned: Gu Changnian's evil spirit or inner demon should have been born for Hua Chiyu, so why is the evil spirit so strong now? If it continues, I'm afraid that in less than half a month, the inner demon will also come out.
Besides, if He Qing didn't know about this, it would be fine, but now that he knows about it, it would be unacceptable for him to just ignore it.
Thinking of this, He Qing couldn't help feeling a little unhappy. While purifying it, he said unhappily, "You are already out of your body, but you can't even handle a little evil energy. Did you learn the Heart Purification Mantra in vain?"
However, Gu Changnian's spiritual power suddenly surged, and at the risk of getting injured, he broke through He Qing's magical control.
He stood up by holding the back of the chair and said breathlessly: "Disciple can handle it on his own, master, there is no need to worry about it." Then he staggered away.
Lu Li, who was leaning against the pillar in an unruly manner, sneered: "Master really enjoys being rejected."
He Qing watched Gu Changnian leave, and saw him slam the door shut, and said solemnly: "You don't know the seriousness of this."
"What's the big deal?" Lu Li tilted his head innocently. "If you have a demon in your heart, don't worry about your cultivation level. It's good if you don't decline. Isn't this what you want?"
"It's not as simple as you say. Even if he has a demon in his heart, he will..." He Qing stopped talking and fell into deep thought.
Lu Li keenly caught the certainty in these words and narrowed his eyes slightly: "What will it be?"
He Qing thought, yes, in the book, Gu Changnian's inner demons were finally eliminated through Hua Chiyu's enlightenment and Guan Yue's purification, but these two are not here now.
Thinking of this, He Qing couldn't help but reveal a sinister smile: "Nothing, since he doesn't need my help, I can't force him, let him figure it out himself."
Lu Li remained silent, his suspicion growing stronger.
Just now, He Qing seemed to be absolutely sure of Gu Changnian, and believed that even if Gu Changnian had a demon in his heart, he would be safe in the end. But where did he get this certainty from?
And now, He Qing seemed to want to let the evil spirit continue to develop, but vaguely, he seemed to have a gambling mentality and wanted to give it a try.
She once said that she saw Gu Changnian killing her in her dream. Could it be that in this dream, she knew something else?
He Qing, who was standing aside, temporarily put aside Gu Changnian's matter and looked at Lu Li with his hands in his pockets: "I say, you didn't find out a long time ago, did you?"
Lu Li was still thinking about something, and casually replied: "What?"
"The evil spirit in Gu Changnian," He Qing raised his chin slightly towards the corridor and said, "So you provoked him like that at Beifeng on purpose to deepen his evil spirit?"
