After the two men left, all the disciples breathed a sigh of relief. Bai Xichen walked towards the sullen-faced Dongfang Ao and bowed, saying, "City Lord Dongfang, I'm truly sorry. These two men with the same name are notoriously arrogant and domineering. We apologize to you on their behalf for what happened just now."
Dongfang Ao said with a look of surprise, "Humph, your sect is really so arrogant. I, the mayor of a small place, cannot afford your apology!"
Leng Qingning pretended to be sad and picked up a seldom-used handkerchief to cover her face and said, "Actually, this matter is all my fault for causing trouble for you, City Lord Dongfang. This matter is not good. If you want to blame someone, blame me. It has nothing to do with others."
Zuo Shaoqian couldn't help but feel a little ashamed. Actually, Junior Sister Leng was a very nice person. She stood up bravely in order not to implicate anyone. His previous attitude was really damnable.
"Oh? I wonder what explanation you have for this?" Dongfang Ao asked with a stern face.
Leng Qingning saw that something was amiss and immediately covered her face with a handkerchief, pretending to sob. "Senior Sister Yan and Senior Brother Cheng had some misunderstandings about me, but I didn't expect it would affect you. I'm sure you've all heard about how Senior Brother Luo Heng saved me, right?"
This green tea is so difficult. How come she couldn't squeeze out a single tear after trying for such a long time?
A certain little black snake in the sleeve rolled its eyes, with a speechless and choked look. Who did this woman learn such a pretentious look from?
Dongfang Ao felt annoyed when he saw the woman crying. He originally wanted to take the opportunity to cause trouble with them and force them to kill the bitch. Since they had already shown this attitude, if he continued to pursue the matter, it would seem aggressive. Dongfang Ao felt particularly aggrieved when his plan failed.
Forget it, just be patient for now. It won’t be too late to find an opportunity after this woman finishes speaking.
No matter what race they are, they cannot escape gossip. When they hear that there is some bloody gossip to listen to, they all come over.
"I've not only heard of it, it's simply a household name..." Zuo Shaoqian wanted to say something when he felt a pain in his waist. He saw this good senior sister pinching his waist with a smile, as if saying, "If you dare to say anything nonsense, I will strangle you to death." Zuo Shaoqian was so scared that he choked on his words.
Leng Qingning used the word "conveniently" very cleverly. Luo Heng did save her along the way. They didn't know each other at first, but were inexplicably tied together because of a misunderstanding. She was also wronged, okay?
"Everyone should know that Senior Brother Luo and I have nothing in common. He is also completely devoted to cultivation and has even declared that he will never seek a Taoist partner. How could he possibly have anything in common with an outer sect disciple like me?"
Ye Qingzhu was the first to nod. She had seen Luo Heng before. He was a cold-hearted man who loved his sword like his life. He was an absolute cultivation maniac. If he had to choose between his Taoist partner and his sword drowning at the same time, he would definitely save his sword without hesitation.
It is impossible for such a person to be attracted to any woman.
Lu Yan and other disciples also agreed with her. Although the other party had the appearance of an immortal, they were simply crazy when it came to cultivation. If you saw them wandering around instead of practicing sword skills, they would be so cold that they could freeze a person to death.
Dongfang Ao was extremely angry when he saw a group of people, including his guards, gathered around Leng Qingning and listening to gossip.
How can we get them to go out and kill that bitch?
Leng Qingning seemed oblivious to Dongfang Ao's murderous look, and continued to herself, "But Senior Sister Yan heard some rumors from somewhere and thought I was in love with Senior Brother Luo Heng, so she holds a grudge against me and bullies me on a daily basis. It's no secret that Senior Brother Cheng is madly in love with Senior Sister Yan."
"A few days ago, in order to vent his anger on Senior Sister Yan's behalf, he actually...actually took advantage of the moment when my foundation-building thunder tribulation descended to attack me. If I hadn't been prepared, I'm afraid my entire cultivation would have been destroyed! Oh, oh, oh~"
"Sister Leng, is there some misunderstanding here? I think Senior Sister Yan is a very nice person, and she doesn't put on airs on a daily basis. Besides, she is a disciple of Master Wanjun, and she is from the same school as Senior Brother Luo. This shouldn't be the case, right?"
Leng Qingning glanced at Shen Youshu and couldn't help frowning. She didn't seem to have offended this junior sister, but she always felt that she was inexplicably targeting her.
"Sister Youshu is right. He is, after all, a direct disciple of Master Wanjun. Everyone knows what kind of person Senior Brother Luo Heng is, and his Junior Sister can't be that bad." Tian Feiyu glanced up and down at Leng Qingning and said, "Besides, almost half of the female disciples in the sect are attracted to Senior Brother Luo Heng. Junior Sister Leng really has no feelings for him at all?"
"So, Senior Brother Tian, you're blaming the victim? I was hurt because Senior Brother Luo Heng is so handsome. I'm a female cultivator, so I have to have feelings for him? And because I have feelings for him, I deserve to be hurt by those two senior brothers and sisters?"
When Lu Yan heard Tian Feiyu's words, he disagreed and said, "Brother Tian, I was actually there when Brother Cheng attacked Sister Leng. It was Brother Cheng who took the initiative to cause trouble."
"Junior Sister Leng, it was really thanks to your foundation-building rain that I had an epiphany. Not long after I returned, I broke through to the foundation-building stage." Leng Qingning also remembered him at this time. No wonder she felt that he looked familiar.
Seeing that the noisy scene finally ended, Dongfang Ao finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Is he still counting on these idiots to help him get rid of that bitch?
"Are you still hungry?" Ye Qingzhu asked, and they all shook their heads.
After this farce, I can't eat this meal.
Ji Lize suddenly smiled at her and suggested, "Senior Sister Ye, how about we go out and look for the whereabouts of that cat demon?"
Seeing that he was so well-behaved, Ye Qingzhu became defensive. Every time this guy smiled at her, he must be harboring evil intentions. She wanted to see what tricks he was up to.
Before leaving, Bai Xichen suddenly asked, "Lord Dongfang, we're out hunting monsters. Do you have any clues about that cat monster?"
Dongfang Ao said: "I only know that the cat demon has lost her demon core, and she always seems to leave in the south of the city."
"How did the city lord know that the cat demon had lost its demon pill?" Leng Qingning wanted to see how this guy would argue, and everyone else looked over at the same time.
Zuo Shaoqian said with a playful smile: "Yes, Lord Dongfang, how did you know that the cat demon had lost its inner elixir? Could it be that you are still holding something back from us? That's really not very kind of you."
Dongfang Ao's expression stiffened slightly, and he forced a smile onto his wrinkled face. "I also heard this from my fellow immortals. To be honest, many disciples from immortal sects came here to hunt monsters, but the cat monster was quite powerful. Many cultivators were ripped out of their hearts and lungs, and died tragically under her claws."
As soon as Dongfang Ao finished saying this, the other people turned pale with fear. The cultivators who were more powerful than them had died tragically at the hands of the cat demon. Aren’t these little scum who had just established their foundation just delivering food to the cat demon?
