Chapter 30: Running away in the sadomasochistic love between master and apprentice
No matter how earnestly the little monk asked, it was useless because Qiu Chi knew nothing about love.
"Why don't you just say what you want to say? Why ask me what I mean? Are you satisfied only when I say I don't understand?"
"That's not the case. What I mean is that perhaps what the donor lacks is love."
Shu Qiuchi really didn't understand: "What does this have to do with love?"
The young monk did not answer Qiu Chi's question, but instead asked, "What do you think love is?"
Qiu Chi frowned tightly, thinking the little monk was just looking for trouble. "Can you just say what you want to say? Don't dither. If you keep dithering and keeping me in suspense, I'll beat you up, don't you believe it?"
The young monk was not angry, but said in a good-tempered manner: "Donor, please answer my question first, then I can answer your question."
Qiu Chi was already very impatient: "Then stop talking, I don't want to listen."
The young monk remained good-tempered and said, "Well, I only have a limited understanding of the subject, and I'm afraid I can't provide you with any useful information. You still need to understand it yourself."
Qiu Chi was speechless: "You can go now."
The young monk shook his head: "I have a connection with you, the donor, so I can't leave yet."
Hearing this, Qiu Chi couldn't help but roll his eyes: "You and I have no fate. Don't think I don't know what you are planning. You are a weak chicken and can only rely on yourself. You can't learn anything from me. Maybe in the end, not only will you not learn anything, but you will even regress."
"This..." The little monk didn't know what to say for a moment, and could only say: "It shouldn't be the case, donor, please don't underestimate yourself."
Qiu Chi: Am I being too self-deprecating? You're just too weak!
The little monk was determined to stay by her side and couldn't be driven away. Qiu Chi couldn't really kill him, so she could only let him do what he wanted.
Even with the little monk following him, he still couldn't stop Qiu Chi from acting recklessly.
That day they arrived at a village. The village was so quiet that there was no one around. Every household had their doors closed.
Qiu Chi and the little monk knew at a glance that there were no living people in the village.
The young monk asked Qiuchi, "Donor, who do you think was responsible for this?"
Qiu Chi glanced lazily at the little monk and said, "Who should I ask if you ask me? This is your business, not mine. You should solve it yourself."
"Why don't you take a guess?"
Qiu Chi felt that the little monk deserved a beating: "I don't want to guess, I'm not interested."
Perhaps because he felt Qiu Chi was too stubborn, the little monk finally sighed helplessly. Before he could say anything, a group of people appeared out of nowhere and attacked Qiu Chi directly.
Qiu Chi had already accumulated a lot of temper because of the little monk. If someone dared to attack her, she would immediately rush forward with a knife.
This group of people were probably not from a sect of immortal cultivators. They didn't take Qiu Chi seriously and were thinking of capturing her alive.
As soon as Qiu Chi heard someone say they wanted to capture her alive, she knew the identities of these people.
It must be someone from the Demonic Cult.
She originally thought of killing them directly, but then she thought it would be boring to kill them directly. Why not let them succeed first and then kill them back when the time comes?
After thinking of this idea, Qiu Chi, who had originally attacked violently, pretended to be exhausted and was "successfully" tied up by them with the soul-locking rope.
After successfully capturing the person, one of them who seemed to be the leader said, "A Foundation Establishment cultivator can be so powerful. She is worthy of being the one who can resurrect the master. Keep an eye on her and don't let her escape."
After the subordinates responded, someone said, "I thought I saw a dead bald donkey just now? Why is it gone now? Did I see it wrong?"
The person next to him said, "You're not mistaken. That man ran away shortly after we took action. But resurrecting the Lord is more important. There's no need to pay attention to him."
Qiu Chi: “…” He couldn’t be driven away before, but now he slipped away very quickly.
System: [Mmmmm!] This little monk is going too far!
Qiu Chi lifted the system's ban.
The system immediately started blabbering, "Host, how did you get caught? Did you do this on purpose? But this little monk is too much! He shamelessly followed you around before, but now he runs away when something happens. I've never seen anyone so shameless! Next time you see him, don't indulge him. Beat him up!"
The system was filled with righteous indignation, but Qiu Chi didn't care.
I don't know what the little monk was thinking when he followed her, but it's better now that he's gone.
Qiu Chi no longer paid attention to the indignant system, but instead looked at the leader of the Demon Cult: "If you want to use me to resurrect your master, then you'd better be polite to me along the way, so that I can cooperate with you."
The minions in the Demon Cult thought Qiu Chi might be up to some tricks: "Will you listen to us? Who would believe that? Be honest!"
As he said that, he wanted to kick Qiu Chi. Qiu Chi dodged and kicked him back, causing him to spit blood. "I told you to be polite, and you still dared to kick me. Do you want to die?"
The Demon Cult members: "..."
After being speechless for a moment, they immediately became alert and surrounded Qiu Chi.
The leader said, "Even though we tied you up tightly, you still managed to break free and resist. It seems you are more than just a Foundation Establishment cultivator."
Qiu Chi threw the spirit-locking rope to the leader and said, "I've already told you to be polite to me along the way. It will be good for both of us."
"What if you run away?"
"Run away?" Qiu Chi sneered, his tone full of disdain. "Why would I run away? It seems you're not very well-informed. Don't you even bother to ask about my reputation?"
She was always the one who made others run away in embarrassment. How could she possibly run away? Didn't you look down on her?
No matter what, these people from the Demon Cult must take Qiu Chi to the Demon Cult.
They were wary of Qiu Chi's martial arts skills and unsure of his true strength. The leader handed Qiu Chi a bracelet and said, "This is a Soul-Locking Bracelet. If you put it on yourself, we will trust you and treat you politely on the way."
System: [You can't wear it! Who knows what they're up to? Don't listen to them!]
Amidst the system's shouting and the scorching gazes of the Demon Cult members, Qiu Chi put on the Soul Locking Bracelet without changing his expression and even waved it in front of the leader: "Put it on! If you don't keep your word, I'll kill you."
Everyone in the Demon Realm: "..."
The man who had just been kicked by Qiu Chi and vomited blood saw Qiu Chi wearing the Soul Locking Bracelet and rushed forward with clenched fists: "How dare you be so arrogant in our hands, you..."
Before he could finish his sentence, Qiu Chi kicked him far away again.
At this moment, Qiu Chi's face also darkened. She took out a knife in front of them and walked towards the person she had kicked to the ground.
Anyone who dared to stop him would be chopped down with a knife without mercy.
The Demon Cult is not a place where brotherhood is deep. After Qiu Chi killed two of them, no one came forward.
The man who was kicked to the ground by Qiu Chi began to beg for mercy: "I was wrong, I know I was wrong, please, please let me go..."
With one cut, the world became quiet.
Qiu Chi retracted his knife and looked at the sullen leader. "Well, do you know who you are now? Do you have any other tricks? Show them to me."
The leader: "...No more, come with us, girl. I promise to be polite."
System: [Oh, it’s because you, the host, have strong martial arts skills! ]
