There is no need for deliberate pressure from a powerful person in the Spirit Transformation Stage. Just a few words spoken casually can bring on the feeling of pressure.
Shen Qiqi: …………
It’s over, it’s over. The master is angry. If she had known earlier, she should have put a few more protective barriers on the master, at least to save the master’s face!
Not like now...
Shen Qiqi quietly lifted her eyelids and secretly glanced at her master's face, which was still covered in black ash. She trembled in her heart and quickly knelt down obediently, saying loudly: "Disciple knows my mistake! Please punish me, Master!"
At the same time, he sent a message to Xie Beiming with a bitter face.
Shen Qiqi: "Xie Beiming, didn't you say that Master wouldn't blame me?"
Xie Beiming: "Yeah."
Shen Qiqi: "...you still...! Master even asked me if I was wrong, and you still call it not blaming me!"
Xie Beiming: "Your master is angry not because you set the fire and hurt him, he is angry about something else."
Shen Qiqi: "Something else? What is it?"
At first, Shen Qiqi was worried that the secret in her blood would be exposed, and her palms were sweating from nervousness.
As a result, neither Wu Qiongcang nor the elders noticed anything unusual and they all thought that she was burning spiritual fire.
Then she worried that Wu Qiongcang would be angry because the fire had burned the corners of his robe and the ends of his hair, ruining his image.
But Xie Beiming now told her that Master was angry not because his image was damaged, but because of something else...
Did she make any other mistakes? How could she not know!
Xie Beiming was silent for a moment before he said, "I don't know either."
Shen Qiqi: “…” I want to cry!
The two people communicated secretly using voice transmission, so others could not hear it, but everyone could still see the look of wanting to cry but not being able to.
The elders who had originally distanced themselves from Shen Qiqi out of fear of being caught in the crossfire, now felt a little reluctant when they saw the panic on her face.
In order to help her master overcome his inner demons, the little girl not only expended her spiritual energy to burn spiritual fire, but also learned piano skills on the spot. Even if she did not gain any credit, she had worked hard.
Besides, who would have thought that the Immortal Venerable Qiongcang, who was already in the Spirit Transformation Stage, would be injured by a few small spiritual fires?
This is completely unexpected.
Yuyuan Immortal Venerable relied on his personal relationship with Wu Qiongcang, coughed lightly, and stepped forward to plead for Shen Qiqi: "Qiongcang..."
"Xiao Yuyu, don't talk."
Yuyuan Immortal Venerable was interrupted just as he started to speak:...Okay, I won’t say anything.
Yuyuan Immortal Venerable closed his mouth and looked at Shen Qiqi helplessly.
Even the Immortal Master Yuyuan, who had a very good personal relationship with Wuqiongcang, suffered a setback, so it would be even more difficult for the other Immortal Masters to step forward and embarrass themselves.
In the entire Wuji Sect, apart from the Sect Master who is in seclusion to recuperate, the relationship between Yuyuan Immortal Venerable and Wuqiongcang is the best. Now even Yuyuan Immortal Venerable can't say anything, let alone these people?
——Alas, poor little girl, it’s not that we don’t want to help you, it’s just that your master is too powerful, so you’d better fend for yourself.
Shen Qiqi was very sensitive to various emotions. Originally, she was just a little nervous because she didn't know how her master would punish her.
However, at this moment, she was bathed in the sympathetic and compassionate gazes of the elders, and suddenly she felt sad. She felt like the little cabbage in the storybook, who was not loved by her father and mother, and had to eat bran and pickled vegetables. So her nose felt sore and her eyes turned red.
Wu Qiongcang, who was caught off guard by his own young disciple, said: ...What's going on? If someone saw this, they would think he, Wu Qiongcang, was abusing his disciples.
The corners of Wu Qiongcang's mouth twitched. He felt that he needed to talk things out quickly, otherwise he would be accused of "abusing his disciples." So his face darkened and he said to Shen Qiqi, "Since you know you are wrong, do you know where you went wrong?"
——My mistake was that I shouldn’t have saved you out of kindness.
Shen Qiqi thought to herself, but said, "It was all because of my inconsiderateness that Master was burned by the spiritual fire and his appearance was damaged..."
Before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by the sound of Wu Qiongcang slamming the table. He said with a sullen face, "That's nonsense. You used the spiritual fire to awaken me and help me get rid of my inner demons. How could I blame you? Do you think I am the kind of person who can't distinguish right from wrong?"
Shen Qiqi was stunned, thinking that it was not that he could not tell right from wrong, but that he was a little too casual, so casual that his mood was unpredictable.
But that wasn't the point. The point was: Xie Beiming was right. Master wasn't angry about the spiritual fire... so what else had she done wrong?
When Wu Qiongcang saw Shen Qiqi's dazed and confused look, he knew that she had not yet realized where she was wrong.
——You can always find a pretext to accuse someone of something. This little fool.
Wu Qiongcang curled his lips and sneered, "When I first passed the jade slip to you, I told you that you must study it diligently. But look at what you've learned now. You've played a perfectly good piece of music so badly that even the screams of ghosts are more melodious than your music... Is that how you study diligently? What are you doing? Answer me!"
Shen Qiqi: ...
What's the meaning? ? !
Does she still need to study music?
But the jade slip that her master had passed on to her contained records of all kinds of magic and sorcery, and it seemed that there was no record of music!
Shen Qiqi quickly flipped through the jade slips in her sea of consciousness. When she turned to the last page, she was dumbfounded.
Because the last page of the jade slip is the music score!
And it wasn't any other music score, it was the music score of the song she just played!
But she didn’t know how many times she had flipped through the jade slip that her master gave her. There was clearly no music score on it before... Could it be that she had missed it?
My dear, there is more to this chapter. Please click on the next page to continue reading. It will be even more exciting later!
