Chapter 58 Chapter 58 Li Baili was about to ask again, Li...

Li Baili was about to ask again when Li Qinglian was suddenly hit by a force and fell out with a bang, hitting the table and causing it to flip over.

The Penglai disciple was caught off guard and subconsciously reached out to hold the table, muttering to himself as he did so: "Don't drop it, it's such a delicious treat, it would be such a shame if it dropped!"

Li Hanshuang and Li Baili looked in the direction of the force that was impacting Li Qinglian, and found that the young man who was leading the horse not far away had already run away on the road.

Li Hanshuang threw out a sword.

There was a plop sound and something was lying down in the distance.

Li Baili and Li Hanshuang walked over to take a look, and found that lying on the ground was a skinned old ox with its eyes open and blood flowing from its body, looking like it was about to die.

"Did you kill him?" Li Baili asked Li Hanshuang curiously.

"No." Li Hanshuang shook his head, hesitated again, and said slowly: "They always die easily."

"That's right." Li Baili nodded.

At the same time, the Penglai disciple came to his senses, quickly let go of the table that had been stabilized, stretched out his hand, squatted down to the corner next to him, and helped Li Qinglian up from the ground.

Li Qinglian coughed for a long time before slowly opening his eyes. He couldn't see clearly when he first opened his eyes, so he thought he saw Li Baili and Li Hanshuang hugging each other and quickly shook his head.

When he gathered his attention and looked again, he suddenly discovered that Li Baili and Li Hanshuang were very close to each other, and their shadows were almost overlapping. Because the sky was hazy in the distance, he couldn't see clearly.

To the extent that he was in a daze, looking at the two overlapping shadows.

Is Li Hanshuang no longer with Li Baili behind people's backs? They think I can't see them, and the Penglai disciples around me didn't notice them, so they act recklessly?

They definitely kissed, didn't they? Absolutely!

There is no need for normal people to talk so close.

What are they talking about?

Li Qinglian was so emotional that his blood rushed to his head. His eyes went dark and he passed out.

The Penglai disciple was immediately startled and shouted loudly: "Don't die!"

Li Hanshuang and Li Baili were startled by the sound and turned back. Seeing the panic-stricken look on the Penglai disciples' faces, they planned to ask them to return to Penglai Island immediately for treatment.

The Penglai disciple immediately agreed to go back, but before leaving, he hesitated and asked, "Then, you two?"

What are you two doing when we go back? What should I say when I go back? When someone asks me, I ask what are you two doing?

"Just tell the truth." Li Baili glanced at the time and felt that it was about time, so she turned to Li Hanshuang and said, "You can go back."

Li Hanshuang was stunned for a moment, staring at him, and asked in disbelief: "Me?"

Li Baili nodded, as if a little surprised, looked at him, and asked doubtfully: "The day is almost up, don't you plan to leave, do you still want to go to the Demon Island with me?"

Li Hanshuang was silent for a moment, and Li Baihe continued, "You were originally going back to Penglai, and since they are going back now, it would save you some trouble if you go back with them."

"I don't want to save trouble," Li Hanshuang said coldly, "One day is one day, not a minute less, don't think I'll owe you anything! Not even a little bit! I will never give you anything!"

The Penglai disciple blinked his eyes.

For some reason, when he heard these words, they turned into: I don’t want to take care of others. One day is one day. I wish it could be forever. Even one day is not enough for me!

You want to deduct more from me on top of the day? Not even a minute or a second! Don't even think you owe me anything, not even a cent! I'll give you everything, just don't leave.

The Penglai disciple shuddered.

Li Baili's expression was even colder than his. She stared at him and said, "Since you think that one day has not passed, then I am still your master. If you want to keep your promise, you should listen to me and do whatever I tell you to do instead of contradicting me. Are you not obedient?"

Li Hanshuang was speechless for a moment, as if he had been hit hard. He slowly lowered his eyes, his voice hoarse and unconvinced, but he still said, "I understand!"

"I'm leaving." Li Baili nodded and disappeared in front of him.

Li Hanshuang closed his eyes, turned his head and looked at the Penglai disciple who was supporting Li Qinglian. The Penglai disciple slowly gave him a somewhat flattering smile.

I didn't let that person go, don't blame me!

Li Hanshuang sent everyone to the treatment center in Penglai.

The crowd, who had been eager to ask about the gossip, immediately dropped their disguise as being well-behaved after Li Hanshuang left, and rushed to the side of the Penglai disciple lying on the hospital bed.

"Tell me quickly, what happened?"

Everyone couldn't wait to ask.

The Penglai disciple coughed twice: "Give me the money first!"

Everyone handed him the money.

He began to tell the story vividly.

The next morning, Li Qinglian woke up and felt that everyone around her was acting strangely. She thought she was still asleep. When she left the treatment center, she suddenly heard someone whispering at the foot of the wall not far away, so she stopped.

"The Sword Immortal and the Island Master once had a child, but the child died due to a moment of negligence. Is this true?"

"You can tell it's true, right? Otherwise, how could they be at odds with each other the moment they met? There was a witness who said it himself yesterday!"

Li Qinglian's pupils trembled.

I just slept for one night, not ten years. How could things change so drastically?

He stepped out, walked in front of the two disciples, and asked them, "Who did you hear what you just said from?"

The two disciples looked at each other and whispered, "That's the one who went on the mission with us yesterday."

Li Qinglian was furious and went to find the Penglai disciple. He collected money and talked big at the same time. When he saw Li Qinglian, his face changed, he suddenly jumped up, turned around and ran away.

The surrounding disciples also spotted Li Qinglian and scattered.

Li Qinglian stopped him and asked him coldly: "Who allowed you to spread those nonsense outside?"

The Penglai disciple smiled awkwardly, "I just slightly processed and polished it, it's not completely distorted. I didn't pat my chest to guarantee that it is definitely like this. They have to believe it themselves. I can't do anything about it. I can't stop others from giving me money, right?"

He clasped his hands together and bowed, his expression very pious: "That doesn't make sense!"

"But do you have any evidence for what you said?" Li Qinglian stared at him and asked without wavering.

"What evidence do you need for gossip?" The disciple smiled and said, "I'm just trying to make money."

"Do you know if there is a rule in Penglai?" Li Qinglian asked with a frown.

"What?" The Penglai disciple didn't care.

"Anyone who makes irresponsible comments about the emperor should be beheaded." Li Qinglian said slowly.

The other party was stunned for a moment, then laughed, but his face was obviously much paler: "Are you kidding me? Why have I never heard of this?"

"What's there to joke about?" Li Qinglian pushed the disciple into the Discipline Hall.

There is actually this one on the wall.

The disciple's body went limp, and the silver that could not be contained in his loose clothes fell to the ground. He slipped and fell to the ground.

"Please save me! You must save me! I just said it casually!" The disciple hugged Li Qinglian and burst into tears.

"You only talk about things in the past. It's all nonsense. It can still be saved." Li Qinglian looked at him and shook his head.

The next day, Penglai held a meeting. Li Hanshuang attended, and Li Qinglian was also among them.

Li Hanshuang asked casually: "How are you?"

Li Qinglian dodged her gaze and nodded: "Okay."

Li Hanshuang was a little confused: "You don't look right?"

Li Qinglian nodded, then shook her head and said, "Nothing, I slept too long and I'm just a little dazed."

"Really?" Li Hanshuang was skeptical, but didn't ask any more questions.

The meeting has begun.

Whitebeard slammed the table and said angrily, "Recently, some disciples have been talking nonsense in the sect. This is not good! I propose a thorough investigation from top to bottom! I must find out who is talking nonsense! Punish them severely! Then they will know that they should not say it!"

Blackbeard advised gently: "It's not a big deal for them to chat casually. They just say a few words and they won't talk about it after a while. If we deal with it so seriously, it will seem like we are petty."

"It doesn't even mention them! How dare they say that others are petty? If they continue like this, I don't know what to say! How can we just ignore it? There are already rules!" White Beard became even angrier.

Everyone started talking about it.

Finally, he looked at Li Hanshuang.

Li Hanshuang said: "Since it is necessary to punish, then punish. Just give a small punishment and warn people, there is no need to impose too heavy a punishment."

Whitebeard held his head high and chest puffed out: "That's how it should be!"

This is the end of the discussion.

Blackbeard said, "The recent rumors have indeed caused some impact on the sect. Since we have to deal with those disciples and those rumors, I have a question to ask."

"What?" Li Hanshuang asked.

"Does the person in the rumor need to be dealt with?" Blackbeard stared at Li Hanshuang.

Li Hanshuang smiled slightly: "The person in the rumor is me, what do you want to deal with?"

Blackbeard stood up and asked, "It is rumored that you are very close to the owner of the Demon Island. I am afraid that this is not groundless. Please explain it to me!"

Li Hanshuang sneered, "How I treated him, you all saw it clearly with your eyes open. Now you ask this, are you suddenly blinded or your brain suddenly not good, and you forgot everything?

If even rumors can be believed, then can I also spread rumors that you and the demons on the Demon Island spent countless hours drinking and talking, and you were so attached to each other that you couldn't bear to be separated. So you asked the demons to become your family members and killed and ate everyone in your family. Now, your whole family is made of demons, without a single exception?"
