After He Qing sent the last batch of people to the temporary resettlement area, he breathed a sigh of relief and said to Yue Qingru: "Qingru, go see what they are lacking and try to make up for it for them."
"Okay." Yue Qingru responded obediently, and rolled her eyes again: "Master, now I am also your accomplice, so you don't need to send me away, right?"
He Qing's eyebrows twitched: "Don't mention 'accomplice' anymore, just go away."
Yue Qingru pursed her lips and replied unhappily, "Oh."
Looking at Yue Qingru's back with the word "unhappy" written all over it, He Qing said to Lu Li with both anger and amusement, "You just exposed yourself in front of Qingru like this, and you really aren't worried at all that she might let it slip."
Two days ago, when He Qing came out of meditation, the battle between several Lingshan leaders and Qi Guanxiao had come to an end. Lu Li relied on the fact that no one would notice him at that time, and used magic even though the forbidden spell was broken. He gave a ridiculous excuse such as "It's too noisy outside and it makes me feel annoyed."
There was no other way. The situation was urgent, and He Qing could only repair the forbidden spell for Lu Li in front of Yue Qingru.
Fortunately, although Yue Qingru was quite surprised, she was still calm. Not only was she not hostile, she was even very happy.
Because she finally knew that He Qing often stayed with Lu Li not because he preferred to treat him specially, but because they had a secret.
Of course, Yue Qingru only regarded Lu Li as an ordinary demon cultivator and did not know that he was the Young Lord of Demon.
Lu Li bent down and picked up a broken soul-calling banner from the ruins, shook off the dust on it, and said calmly: "Master, how do you want to deal with the people of Qi Guan's family?"
Thinking of Qi Guanrui and Qi Guanxiang's despair after learning the truth, He Qing sighed regretfully: "Even with Lingshan as a guarantor, their future days will be very difficult."
Liangzhou City is not like Lingshan. There are many cultivators coming and going here. Once the news of the appearance of monsters here spreads, countless people will soon flock here and ask Qi Guan's people to give an explanation.
For example, Chi Ying has been pestering Qi Guanrui for two days.
Chi Ying didn't believe that the people in Qi Guan's family knew nothing about what Qi Guanxiao had done. He determined that Qi Guanxiao had reached an agreement with those radical demon cultivators and even made some unknown deals behind the scenes. He asked Qi Guanrui to speak out.
It was also because of this that He Qing had to keep Lu Li by his side these past two days, leaving early and returning late, for fear of being caught by Chi Ying.
However, even Chi Ying, who supports Shao Jun, is like this, not to mention those who support the Demon God. They all want to get inspiration, skills, and anything else they get from the Warcraft.
He Qing couldn't help but shook his head, unwilling to put himself into thinking about this problem that would make him feel dizzy if he thought about it for one more second, so he turned around and asked, "Do you want to keep this monster too?"
Lu Li did not answer, but took out the palace bell from his waist, raised it and shook it towards He Qing, smiling sweetly at the melodious sound of the bell: "Does it look good?"
The appearance of this silver-white gilded palace bell changed slightly after Lu Li captured the magical beast. If you look closely, you can see that there is a small turtle on the pattern on the surface.
The demon beast came to find Lu Li on its own initiative. It turned into a small ball of demonic energy in the miasma and lay with its four legs up in the air in the ruins of the shattered corridor outside He Qing's house.
When Lu Li opened the door and saw it, he didn't seem surprised. He picked up the little turtle and put it into the palace bell. He Qing was so frightened that he flashed on the spot to block Yue Qingru's sight.
Lu Li's usual reaction and Qi Guanxiao's actions...
He Qing guessed that Qi Guanxiao had gone to great lengths to transfer the demon beast to Liangzhou City with great difficulty in preparation for the future appearance of the demon god. However, he hadn't even seen the demon god yet and he was already making such a desperate move. While it was puzzling, there seemed to be a unique reason that could explain it.
That is, he has seen the devil.
In recent times, the only person Qi Guanxiao had met who was related to the evil way was Lu Li.
This is a fact that He Qing is very reluctant to face, because if she continues to think about it, she will have to face the possibility that "Lu Li is the devil."
The Demon God is the least godlike among the ancient gods. He has the power to subvert all living things and possesses seven emotions and six desires, but he despises life and plays with people's hearts. He has a violent and murderous temperament, is ruthless, cruel and bloodthirsty.
It can be said that all the darkest and cruelest adjectives can be used to describe the devil.
Can He Qing negotiate cooperation with the Demon Young Master? Can she negotiate cooperation with the Demon God? Can the Demon God, a creature that transcends the human world, be a partner? The Demon God is an immortal being, and everything in this world is his plaything. How can a mortal like her reach him?
Thinking of this, He Qing's heart suddenly ached, and her eyes immediately became dim, but she subconsciously pulled the corners of her mouth and said, "It looks good."
No, no, no, wake up. Lu Li is a young prince. This is the setting in the book. He Qing thought that he should not have expected the development of events to be so outrageous. If Lu Li is the extraordinary in the legend, then the heavenly way mentioned by the cultivators should also be real. How could the heavenly way allow the devil to reincarnate?
Yes, she should believe that.
After readjusting his mindset, He Qing felt a little relieved for a while, so he nodded solemnly and repeated, "It looks good."
However, although He Qing disguised himself well, Lu Li still saw through his hesitation for a moment.
There was a hint of gloom in Lu Li's eyes, but he did not ask further questions. He just smiled and took He Qing's hand: "Master, let's go back."
Lu Li's hand was still very cold, but He Qing held it tightly.
It was as if as long as he held it tight enough, Lu Li would never be a demon god, and the heaven that would definitely execute the demon god would never exist. He was just the damn God that he could curse at as he pleased.

The people of Qi Guan's family had a very good attitude. Qi Guanrui had been working with the people of Lingshan to clean up the post-war chaos. Qi Guanxiang took the initiative to hand over all the law books written by the Qi Guan family over the past tens of thousands of years. Rather than proving their innocence, these actions were more like forgiving Qi Guanxiao's sins.
The leaders of Lingshan did not make things difficult for them. Xuan Qingzi even took the initiative to propose that he would write a letter to all the major immortal sects to explain the situation and testify for Qi Guan's people.
The two Qi Guan brothers thanked him deeply, but they also understood that even if Xuan Qingzi's letter could save the Qi Guan family from some trouble to a certain extent, the people of the Qi Guan family would still have to face endless inquiries that might last for many years.
The matter in Liangzhou City was settled, and several leaders decided to head to the northern border immediately. After all, the seal of the Warcraft had been broken in two places, and no one could predict what the seal of the Demon God would look like.
But before that, Xuan Qingzi still mentioned the "family affairs" of the Yaoguang Sect.
