It was after seeing the thundercloud that Su Guang broke the forbidden spell and helped her.
There must be some unknown connection between Tracing the light and that strange thundercloud.
Although his mind was full of thoughts, He Qing pretended to be calm and said, "Since the young master is still in seclusion, Miss Yichi, is there anything I can help with?"
Seeing He Qing taking the initiative, even though the conversation had already come to this point, Chi Ying couldn't help but ask suspiciously: "What are you planning?"
He Qing said gently: "As I said before, everything I do is for the good of the Immortal Sect."
With such a great and glorious reason laid out in the open, even if Chi Ying had some doubts, he could not find any basis to refute it, so he could only say half-believingly: "Most of those who support the young master have not taken any action. Only a small number of people, like me, follow those radical demon cultivators and try their best to prevent them from causing any trouble."
He Qing looked at her with regret: "But now that you are injured, I am afraid you can no longer go to Sanzu River with them, right?"
"…"
"How about this?" He Qing took the initiative to suggest: "Girl, tell me the information about those demon cultivators, and I will go to Sanzu River for you. First, I will confirm for you whether they have any other plans besides wanting to be inspired by the demon god. Second, I am a gentle and patient person, so there will be no disputes even if I face them head-on."
If Chi Ying in the future returned to this day, she would definitely roll her eyes at He Qing, but now she agreed.
Coming out of the inn, He Qing was in a very happy mood.
This trip was totally worth it. Not only did I learn a lot about Shao Jun, but I also got a list of more than a dozen radical demon cultivators. I took the list back to discuss with Lu Li to see whether to kill them outright or recruit them.
But when she thought of Lu Li, He Qing's mood suddenly became unhappy again. Her intuition told her that behind this young master of the evil path, there was probably a secret that was even more important than his current identity, and that strange thundercloud was the key.
Thinking of this, He Qing laughed at himself and thought: What secret could be more important than that he should have been in seclusion, but was chased by someone and hid in the immortal gate? It couldn't be the reincarnation of the devil, right?
"..." He Qing's smile froze on his face: Demon God... reincarnation?
(Master doesn't believe that Demon God still exists?)
(Because the Tianxin Jue you practiced was created by the Demon God.)
(The skills of the Yuling Palace? Oh, it's just a puppet technique for fun.)
(It's not a bug, it's a demon beast.)
In broad daylight, He Qing suddenly broke out in a cold sweat: No way? It can't be such an outrageous development, right?
Thinking about it more deeply, although Lu Li is young, he has a certain understanding of things tens of thousands of years ago or even in ancient times. When he mentioned the Demon God repeatedly, his attitude seemed very ambiguous. He never commented on the Demon God, and there was no obvious respect and admiration for him.
At first, He Qing did not think there was anything suspicious about this, thinking that he was the young master of the demon sect, so it was not surprising that he had heard more about the demon god's past. He was also young and energetic, so it was understandable that he did not regard the demon god who had been sealed for tens of thousands of years as his spiritual leader.
But now recalling all that happened before, He Qing suddenly had a spooky and strange feeling, as if he met an acquaintance on the street late at night on the Ghost Festival and chatted with him for a while, only to hear after daybreak that the person had died the night before.
No, no, no! He Qing shook his head violently: Impossible, how could he be a demon god? Impossible, impossible.
He Qing returned to Qi Guan's house in a daze. As soon as he arrived at the backyard of the west wing, he saw Gu Changnian holding a whisk and confronting Lu Li. Yue Qingru and Qi Guanrui were standing in the middle with panic on their faces, as if they didn't know who to help.
When the others saw He Qing, Yue Qingru and Qi Guanrui were overjoyed. They were about to explain the whole story to He Qing, but Lu Li ran over first, hugged He Qing's waist and said aggrievedly: "Master, you are finally back. My senior brother wanted to kill me. I was so scared..."
He Qing stared at the top of Lu Li's head and couldn't help but start to daydream: If he was really a demon god, an ancient god, would he pretend to be a teenager and act cute to others? Could a demon god do such a shameless thing? Impossible...
"You are talking nonsense!" Gu Changnian said angrily with a gloomy face, "Your origins are unknown, and you have insulted the reputation of our Yaoguang Sect many times. If you are upright, why don't you dare to let me see your sea of consciousness!?"
Lu Li stomped his feet as if he was frustrated: "Master, it's not that I don't let you enter my sea of consciousness, but you wanted to hurt me this morning. If you really let him enter my sea of consciousness, I'm afraid I won't be able to see you come back..." His words were filled with pain and helplessness after being wronged, and his eyes turned red as he spoke.
He Qing narrowed her eyes and nodded secretly: Well, it must not be the reincarnation of the devil. If the devil can act like this kind of green tea, she will chop off his head and use it as a stool! After calming
down, He Qing also regained her rationality. She looked up at the furious Gu Changnian and said indifferently: "It can be seen that you really want to share your current out-of-body cultivation with everyone, but we are now a guest in someone else's house. Isn't it a bit rude for you to be like this?"
Gu Changnian was so angry at He Qing's indifferent attitude that he gritted his teeth and asked unwillingly: "Master, you are protecting him so much, could it be that you already know that his identity is not to be seen in the light, and you are deliberately covering it up for him?"
He Qing raised his eyebrows in an ambiguous way: "If so, what do you think?"
To Qi Guanrui and Yue Qingru, He Qing's question sounded like an angry remark, but to Gu Changnian at this moment, it was clearly a tacit agreement, and he was still provoking him, "What can you do?"
Gu Changnian nodded angrily: "Okay, in that case, I will find out by myself!" Then he leaped up, intending to fly away directly on his flying weapon, but before he jumped as high as the eaves, He Qing controlled him with magic and dragged him back to the ground.
He Qing said: "From now on, you can only follow me and are not allowed to go anywhere."
"you..."
"You know my temper," He Qing interrupted Gu Changnian and said in an extremely gentle but warning tone, "If you disappear, I might not be in my right mind, and who knows who I might hurt."
This was almost equivalent to a threat, and the effect was significant. Gu Changnian immediately gave up struggling.
Although his former master would vent his anger on others, he would at least not kill them. But the situation has changed now, and Gu Changnian is no longer sure what kind of horrific revenge his current master will take.
Qi Guanrui stared at He Qing in a daze, his mind going blank——
Is this still He Qing?
How could she be such a person who has a snake heart and a dagger hidden in her smile...
