There was a dull thud as knees hit the ground.
Tianlu Immortal Lord, who was about to pull Shen Qiqi out and hold her accountable, lowered his gaze to Qiu Changfeng.
"Why, do you have any objections to my handling of the matter? Fine, call your master over and we can discuss this further."
Qiu Changfeng knelt down for no apparent reason: "..."
He quickly said, "No, no, no... No!"
"No? Then why are you kneeling here?"
"...Disciple, I am thinking of the heroic spirits sleeping within this ancient tomb. They all passed away to protect the people of the world. I am filled with respect, so I kneel down in worship!"
Naturally, this kind of rhetoric cannot fool the Immortal Lord Tianlu.
As if he is blind.
This kid just called Zi Ling "Master".
Since he is Zi Ling's apprentice, then this kneeling is nothing more than begging for mercy.
Tianlu Immortal Lord sneered and said, "In that case, you should kneel here for a full hour, so that the ancestors can feel your respect."
“…”
Qiu Changfeng's face immediately turned pale.
The sect only gave them half a day to choose magic weapons and immortal artifacts. Half of the time had already passed. If he knelt for another hour... Let's not talk about whether the time left for him was enough, the opportunities missed in this hour alone would make him want to cry.
First come, first served. The other disciples won’t stop and wait for him!
Thinking that he was not only punished to kneel for no reason, but also had to choose the magic weapons and immortal artifacts left by others, Qiu Changfeng was so angry that he almost vomited blood. He wished he could pull out the person who attacked him from behind and tear him into pieces.
Here, Shen Qiqi still didn't know that she had escaped a disaster. She blinked her big eyes, looking at the handsome profile of Master Xie with sparkling eyes.
In her previous life, she had to handle everything by herself, and no one would come to help her when she couldn't handle it anymore.
She was also used to the situation where people around her would immediately jump out and shout at her to kill her when she was in trouble.
But she just wasn't used to someone rushing in front of her and helping her block out the shouts of fighting and killing.
This kind of experience of being protected by someone is so rare.
It is so precious.
It was so precious that she dared not blink, fearing it was an illusion. When she blinked, she was left alone again.
Xie Beiming turned his head and met the girl's wet eyes.
He stopped.
"Why, are you crying because you're so moved?"
Shen Qiqi: “…”
This is terrible. Young Master Xie not only learned to argue with others, but also learned to make fun of her.
She rubbed her face hurriedly and curled her lips, "No, I just... I just... I'm not used to it, because I was always the only one who encountered this kind of thing before."
The last sentence revealed a sense of grievance that even Shen Qiqi herself was not aware of.
Xie Beiming looked at her, but it didn't seem like he was looking at her, as if he was looking through her at another person.
Then, his eyes, which usually showed no major emotion, were gradually shrouded in a layer of hostility.
Shen Qiqi was still embarrassed because she was so moved that she cried. She stared at her toes and was too embarrassed to look at Xie Beiming. When she looked up again, she saw Young Master Xie staring at her without blinking, his eyes bloodshot, as if he was possessed!
Shen Qiqi: ???
Shen Qiqi:!!!
What did she just say!
She said that something was wrong with Xie Beiming today!
Shen Qiqi was startled and no longer cared about saving her own face. She hurriedly shook his shoulders.
"Xie Young Master? Xie Young Master? Xie Beiming!"
After calling out several times, Xie Beiming finally came back to his senses.
He exhaled slowly, his gaze falling on the girl's long, moist eyelashes. His lips moved for a moment, with a lot of words stuck in his throat, but in the end, only two light words came out.
"fine."
"...No, I'm glad you're okay. You scared me to death just now." Shen Qiqi was still worried. She stared at him and asked, "Are you really okay? I saw your eyes were red just now. How about you first..."
Before she could finish her words, a tiger's roar suddenly rang in her ears, and then the lid of the coffin opposite her exploded with a bang. A thin white shadow jumped out from it, and after circling in the air for a few times, it suddenly appeared as a tiger!
White hair like snow.
The upper and lower rows of fangs are like two rows of sharp saw teeth.
Four big hooves like palm-leaf fans, one hoof stepping on a coffin, staring at her with a pair of golden copper bell eyes, staring at her fiercely!
Shen Qiqi gasped, not caring about how a tiger suddenly jumped out of the coffin. She quickly pushed Xie Beiming behind her and said in a deep voice, "Be careful! There's a tiger ahead!"
"Tiger?" Xie Beiming frowned and glanced at the empty space ahead. He was puzzled when he suddenly thought of something. A flash of shock flashed in his eyes and he asked hurriedly, "But it's a white tiger with golden pupils?"
Shen Qiqi said: "Yes, white hair, golden eyes, and hooves bigger than washbasins!" After she finished speaking, she suddenly felt something was wrong.
Such a huge tiger was standing right in front of her, but Xie Beiming couldn't even see it, and even asked her what the tiger looked like... Oh no, Master Xie, could it be...
Thinking of that possibility, and then thinking about Xie Beiming's eyes that were suddenly filled with red bloodshot, Shen Qiqi immediately broke out in a cold sweat and hurriedly stretched out her hand to wave back and forth under Xie Beiming's eyelids.
Xie Beiming: "..." He grabbed the little hand that was about to jump on his face and said helplessly, "Don't shake it, I'm not blind. I just can't see what you see now."
Shen Qiqi: “…”
This sounded a bit awkward. She stammered a few times before she came to her senses. She couldn't believe it and said, "You mean, that tiger... is a magical weapon?"
Xie Beiming: "You can say that."
