Wu Qiongcang spoke so nonchalantly that the elders readily took his words and blurted out, "Your little disciple didn't reflect on her mistakes during her confinement, but instead just ate and drank here, showing no remorse. We'll certainly reprimand her later, but right now... wait!"
The elders were stunned: "Who?"
Wu Qiongcang raised his head and nodded in a certain direction: "Here."
Then twelve pairs of eyes and twenty-four gazes all followed the direction where his chin was raised.
Then they saw the girl by the fire.
And then... and then they all stared at each other with wide eyes, seeing shock and disbelief on each other's faces.
What did they just hear?
This thunder, this barrier, and the water that was blown dry in the clear pond were all the work of Wu Qiongcang's little disciple... How is this possible!
Among the twelve elders, Immortal Venerable Zi Ling, relying on the support of many senior brothers, has the most impulsive personality and is the most outspoken.
She sneered as if she had just heard a huge joke, and said bluntly, "Venerable Qiongcang, isn't it a bit too perfunctory for you to just throw the blame onto your little disciple without thinking? Aren't you afraid of crushing your little disciple to death?"
Saying that a new disciple who has just become a disciple of a master can use thunder magic is so unconvincing that it is even worse than saying that a sow can climb a tree.
As soon as Immortal Zi Ling opened her mouth, her six senior brothers followed suit and raised questions.
"Yes, yes, Immortal Venerable Qiongcang. Although your little disciple has a rare fire spirit root that appears once every century and is extremely talented, she has only been training with you for a little over a month. To have mastered the Lightning Summoning Technique in such a short time... it's hard to believe."
"The main thing is that she summoned a full eighteen thunders in one breath. Eighteen thunders, Immortal Lord Qiongcang. If I remember correctly, you can only summon eighty-one thunders in one breath."
Eighty-one thunders seem to be much more than eighteen thunders.
But how long did Wu Qiongcang live?
How long did Wu Qiongcang's apprentice live?
It's not surprising for a grown man to knock over a year with one punch.
But if a baby who has just crawled out of the womb can knock down a cow, even if it is just a newborn calf, it would be very scary!
In the eyes of these elders, Shen Qiqi is now the little baby who just crawled out of the womb!
Summons eighteen thunders in one breath—impossible!
The elders were almost shaking their heads like rattles. No one was willing to believe Wu Qiongcang's words. They all felt that Wu Qiongcang's behavior of casually shifting the blame to his disciples was too perfunctory, too casual, and too ridiculous!
Jade Abyss Immortal Venerable looked at him and said with dismay, "You! You..."
He kept saying "ah" for a long time but couldn't utter the rest of the words, and Wu Qiongcang didn't have the patience to listen to him anymore.
The Immortal Venerable Qiongcang raised his eyelids and looked at his little disciple.
"Qiqi, come here."
Shen Qiqi was whispering to Xie Beiming while turning the bamboo skewers in her hand to grill the fish.
The fish that Yinqiao just grilled was originally ordered by Wu Qiongcang, but she was asked to bring it over for Xie Beiming to eat, so now she is personally cooking to help her master grill the fish.
When she was attracting the lightning just now, although she deliberately directed the lightning into the pool of water and did not blow up the water prison, she did blow up the barrier.
Therefore, when she saw the elders of Wuji Sect coming towards her on swords in anger, she was actually prepared to be punished again.
In the end, Master took the blame for her.
So now, Shen Qiqi was both moved and guilty. She used all she had learned in two lifetimes to grill the fish on the bamboo skewers, determined to grill the most delicious grilled fish to honor her master.
Otherwise, she would be unworthy of the blame that her master had taken for her.
At this time, she heard her master calling her, and she responded with an "Hey". She first handed the task of grilling the fish to Yinqiao, and reminded her to pay attention to the heat and not to burn it, and then ran over.
"Master."
While calling her Master, she was still thinking about what else she could do to honor her Master besides grilling fish.
Wu Qiongcang noticed that his little disciple was a little absent-minded, but he didn't know where her mind was, and he had no interest in knowing.
His peach blossom eyes, which usually looked indifferent and uninterested, now gleamed with excitement and anticipation. He said to his young disciple, "Qiqi, come here, let's show the elders some thunder."
Shen Qiqi, who was racking her brains to think of what to give him as a gift: "..."
She was stunned and couldn't react.
It was Immortal Zi Ling who spoke quickly, "Qiqi, your master said that you were the one who caused the thunder, blew up the barrier, and killed all the fish and shrimp in the pond. Is what your master said true?"
Shen Qiqi: ...It's true!
But Master, we agreed that you would take care of it if the sky gets burned!
Shen Qiqi bit her lip and looked at Wu Qiongcang with resentment in her eyes. However, Wu Qiongcang could not sympathize with her and said to her with a smile: "Good disciple, use all your abilities. If the sky burns, your master will cover it for you."
“…”
Shen Qiqi wanted to sneer at him, thinking to herself, I don't believe you.
She looked at Yuyuan Immortal Venerable and the other elders and said, "Elders, Master and his people just told this disciple the same thing."
The implication is: So, if you want to hold someone accountable, then go find my master. I am just a poor little disciple who is following his orders.
There is no way, the master is unreliable, she can only rely on herself.
Yuyuan Immortal Venerable and other elders looked at each other again, all with expressions of astonishment.
Compared to the "implied meaning" that Shen Qiqi deliberately emphasized, they actually cared more about the implicit meaning of Shen Qiqi's words.
What is the hidden meaning?
What he meant was that the eighteen heavenly thunders that woke up the entire Wuji Sect were indeed the work of the little disciple in front of him!
The young disciple, who had just become a disciple of the master for a month, actually summoned eighteen heavenly thunders in one breath... It turns out that a newborn baby can really kill a cow with one punch!
The expressions in the elders' eyes had changed from fear to horror. Zi Lingxianzun represented them in expressing this horror. He held Shen Qiqi's shoulders and said in a trembling voice, "Did you really invite those heavenly thunders? Invite another one for us to see. Quick!"
Shen Qiqi looked at the other elders and saw that although they didn't speak, they clearly had the same idea as Zi Ling Xianzun, so she drew a Five Thunder Talisman on the spot.
The highest-grade thunder talisman she could draw in her previous life could only attract three thunders at a time.
The breakthrough to the Five Thunder Talisman was also thanks to the guidance of the famous teacher Wu Qiongcang.
But it was her first time drawing the Five Thunder Talisman, so she didn't know how effective it would be.
Don't make a fool of yourself, Xie Beiming is watching you.
Shen Qiqi glanced at the young man sitting cross-legged by the fire and muttered to herself.
Nothing happened for the first three breaths after Fu Zhuan Qing went out.
Even after the fourth breath had passed, the night sky was still as calm as a huge black mirror. Not to mention lightning and thunder, there wasn't even a trace of night breeze.
