Chapter 39 Chapter 39 Chen Liqing returned to the yard...
When Chen Liqing returned to the courtyard, the disciples of Danzong had already gathered in the courtyard waiting for him. He was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "Why are you all waiting here?"
"Brother," a disciple said, "You gave the elixir you finally made to the Sword Sect's leader. What will you do if a fight breaks out tomorrow?"
"Although Sect Master Shen is aggressive, he is not an unreasonable spirit beast." Chen Liqing helplessly spread out his hands and said with a smile: "Don't worry too much, the boat will be straightened out when the time comes."
"But..." The disciple wanted to speak, but Chen Liqing raised his hand and patted his shoulder gently, saying, "Don't worry, I have other elixirs. I remember you still have a demon elixir of a spirit beast, right? I'll lend it to you. Don't worry, when we return to Danzong, I will definitely speak well of you in front of Master."
Hearing this, the disciple who was very angry just now subconsciously froze his face. A trace of hesitation flashed across his eyes, and he was obviously a little embarrassed. Chen Liqing narrowed his eyes slightly, a little unhappy, but smiled and said: "If you don't want to, forget it. I won't force you."
"Brother..." The disciple stammered, "This is a rabbit's magic pill. I..."
"Junior brother, opportunities don't wait for anyone." Chen Liqing had a gentlemanly smile on his face, looking elegant and convincing.
After a cup of tea, Chen Liqing walked into his room, stretched out his palm, and inside was the rabbit demon pill, covered with blood. As soon as the demon pill appeared, a strong smell of blood suddenly filled the room.
"Spiritual beast." Chen Liqing lowered his eyes slightly and fell on the demon pill. A trace of contempt flashed across his eyes, and he said slowly: "It's just a beast."

"Many human monks think that spirit beasts are just beasts, but in fact, whether it is humans or animals, they all know pain and will repay kindness and seek revenge." Shen Wei sat on the chair, he smiled and said: "Human monks are really arrogant."
He made a summary. In fact, before coming to participate in the sect conference, he did not have so many feelings. At that time, he naively believed that there was room for maneuver in everything. Even when it came to the case of the city lord's mansion extermination, he was still thinking about finding an opportunity. But now it seems that the magic pills used by spirit beasts are too tempting, so that at the sect conference, although it was clearly a frame-up, no one from the sect was willing to speak a word of fairness.
"So what do you want?" Duan Zhou asked.
"I don't care about them. I just want the Ten Thousand Beast Sect to be well." Chen Wei raised the corners of his lips slightly and said, "I just want to protect my home. The life and death of any invader is up to me."
Except for that evil dragon.
Shen Wei thought to himself.
Duan Zhou could see that Chen Wei was not in a good mood, so the two of them hurriedly drank a cup of tea and went back to rest. Chen Wei originally wanted to let Duan Zhou sleep in a room alone, but the other party slept on the floor very decisively. Chen Wei felt that if he drove him away at this time, who knows what this sensitive human swordsman would do.
So he lay down peacefully, waiting for the sect meeting the next day.
At night, Chen Wei slept very deeply, probably because he was too tired these days. In a daze, he felt that he was pressed by something. The thing was a little cold and icy. It slid across his body and felt slightly cool, like touching cold scales.
Cold scales...
Scales?!
Chen Wei suddenly opened his eyes. He sat up abruptly and found that the sun was already shining in through the window. Chen Wei was breathing heavily. He had not yet escaped from the nightmare, and the cold touch was all in his mind.
When the door was pushed open, a young man in black clothes walked in from outside. After seeing Chen Wei, he was about to speak, but suddenly found that Chen Wei's face was not right. He immediately threw away what he was about to say, walked up quickly, and asked: "What's wrong with you? Why do you look so bad?"
Shen Wei had a nightmare. He could still feel his heart beating very fast and was a little breathless. It took him a while to calm down and he said in a hoarse voice, "I...I had a dream."
"Dreaming?" Duan Zhou paused for a moment before asking, "What did you dream about? Why did you sweat so much?"
"A... a snake." Chen Wei lowered his eyes, and he barely pulled the corners of his lips. There was cold sweat on his forehead, and his face was pale as he said, "I dreamed... I dreamed of it."
Duan Zhou's face also looked a little ugly. He subconsciously tilted his head slightly, as if he was ready to listen to what Chen Wei said. Perhaps this action was too similar to Qing Si's usual little actions, so Chen Wei looked at it a few more times but did not take it to heart.
"Snake..." Duan Zhou said calmly, not as anxious as before, and just said: "This is not the first time you have dreamed of it. What did it do to you this time?"
"I dreamed that it slipped through my body." Chen Wei was still frightened and remembered the feeling at that time. He murmured, "I felt..."
"..." Duan Zhou felt a little bit jealous, but he could see that Shen Wei was really frightened at the moment. He stepped forward unwillingly, half squatted down, and slowly poured spiritual power into Shen Wei's body, calming the restless spiritual power in his meridians. Then he turned his head and said coldly: "What you think about during the day will appear in your dreams at night. If you do this again because of this snake next time, I will not care about you."
But he still remembered the divination and Chen Wei's words.
I am so afraid of the snake, but in my heart I actually like it. Isn't this masochism?
If he were Chen Wei, he would not like a snake that made him feel scared. Instead of looking at that rubbish snake, he should look at the snake in front of him. They are all snakes, and he is Duan Zhou, a dragon. How did he lose?
He kept muttering to himself, thinking about this matter over and over again, but there was no sign of it on his face.
After finally getting over the nightmare in the morning, I had to go to attend the sect conference. Yesterday, due to the arrival of the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect, the sect conference was forced to be temporarily interrupted, so strictly speaking, today was only the first day of the sect conference.
When Chen Wei went there, he was still thinking that the Sword Sect's leader would not tell the history of the Sword Sect again. As a result, when he arrived there, he saw the Sword Sect's disciples moving out something sponsored by the Weapon Refining Sect and playing the Sword Sect's history that the Sword Sect's leader had told yesterday on a loop.
Shen Wei: ...
"Master, you talked too much yesterday and your throat hurts today." The Sword Sect disciple looked at Shen Wei apologetically and said, "Master Shen, please forgive me."
Chen Wei was very good-looking, with handsome eyebrows and eyes, and he was smiling and looked very sincere, so much so that the Sword Sect disciple couldn't help but take a few more glances at him while he was talking. When he was about to leave to take a third look, he was suddenly blocked by a sleeve, and when he looked up, he saw the Spirit Snake Mask.
"Daoyou." The Sword Sect disciple paused for a moment before respectfully saying, "Daoyou is also a sword cultivator."
"Hmm." Duan Zhou responded indifferently. Although he was answering the disciple of the Sword Sect, his eyes were actually on Shen Wei, and the eyes of others were also here. To be precise, they were not only on Shen Wei. After all, there was a woman in a crimson robe sitting next to Shen Wei. As soon as he saw the red lines on her body, he knew her identity. The green snake and white tiger next to them were directly transformed into their original forms.
In fact, early in the morning, Qing Si and Bai Xiao were considering whether or not to transform into their original forms to attend the sect conference. After all, most spirit beasts would not actively transform into their original forms, especially those that could already transform into human forms.
But... in the battle with Liantian yesterday, the opponent was so ruthless that Qingsi and Baixiao both had bruises on their faces. When they were having breakfast in the morning, Chen Wei almost failed to recognize them. So, under the great shock, they simply transformed into their original forms and came to attend the sect conference, and refused to transform into human forms no matter what.
They are spiritual animals, so they are very careful about their image.
Among spiritual beasts, those with bad image and reputation find it difficult to find a mate.
"Sect Master Shen." The Sword Sect's Sect Master glanced at Shen Wei, then glanced at the spirit beasts and cultivators around him, and finally said with a smile: "Sect Master Shen did not stay at the courtyard yesterday. Is it because the disciples below did not entertain him well enough?"
“Not really, it’s mainly because there are too many spirit beasts coming to our house, and the small courtyard can’t accommodate them.” Shen Wei replied with a smile.
They both looked at each other and knew that the other was not telling the truth.
But it doesn't matter. Hypocrisy is the best protective color in this world of cultivation. Chen Wei sat in his seat leisurely, listening to the Sword Sect leader continue with what he said yesterday. But what's interesting is that Chen Wei didn't hear anyone mention a word about the extermination of the City Lord's Mansion until the end of the meeting.
It was as if this matter disappeared out of thin air.
However, even if the Sword Sect's leader didn't mention it, Chen Wei had to mention it. He could almost foresee this matter. If it wasn't properly resolved, the blame would be firmly placed on their Ten Thousand Beast Sect.
"Speaking of which, there is still one thing that has not been resolved." Chen Wei said with a smile: "Yesterday someone mentioned the extermination of the City Lord's Mansion. Coincidentally, I heard that there is another witness who can prove that the extermination of the City Lord's Mansion has nothing to do with the Ten Thousand Beast Sect."
"Hmm?" Upon hearing this, the Sword Sect's leader and Chen Liqing both looked over.
Then, Chen Wei looked at them with a smile in his eyes and said calmly: "Although the City Lord's Mansion was wiped out, it's a good thing that the man only killed people and not rats. The City Lord's Mansion's granary is too big, and the people's wealth was plundered too much, so it raised a lot of rats."
"Rat? Rats are beasts, they will definitely speak for you, the Wanshou Sect." A Dan Sect disciple suddenly said, "Who knows if you, the Wanshou Sect, did it on purpose."
"I haven't finished what I'm saying yet. When will it be your turn to speak?" Shen Wei glanced over, and the spiritual pressure he brought was enough to make the Dan Sect disciple who was speaking a little breathless. It was not until Chen Liqing made a move that the other party choked and coughed a few times, looking at Shen Wei with some fear. Then Chen Liqing immediately cupped his hands and said, "Sect Master Shen, please show mercy!"
