Song Qi keenly sensed the malice emanating from Lu Yuhuai.
She smiled and said, "If something were to happen to my master, it shouldn't be too difficult for me to find another master, given my status as the owner of the Azure Abyss Sword."
The two people looked at each other.
Lu Yuhuai smiled and didn't say anything more, just waved his hand.
Song Qi took the sect leader's token and left Lu Yuhuai's tent.
The sect leader's token looked very simple and unassuming, the kind of thing that didn't seem very valuable.
Therefore, it is clear that there is a reason why the Qingyuan Sword looks the way it does.
She put the token into the storage space of her hairpin.
The space inside the hairpin wasn't very large; after placing the keepsake inside, it was already completely full.
The duel between Lu Yuhuai and Ji Xuan will take place in the open space of the battle zone, and will take place in three days.
It is certain that Song Qi is safe these days.
She didn't go outside the city either, but stayed in the city with Luo Shuyun to help take care of people with injured hands.
Yu Fengcheng's people are very excited lately; no one thinks Lu Yuhuai will lose.
"Do you think the sect leader will lose?" someone leaned close to Song Qi and asked in a low voice.
"I hope we don't lose." Song Qi glanced at the person who asked the question; it was a very boring question.
"So, who do you think is more powerful, the sect leader or the Demon Lord?"
Song Qi felt that this person was trying to lead her astray, so she said casually, "Aren't they all at the late stage of Mahayana and Great Perfection? How can you tell who is stronger?"
She asked with an innocent look on her face.
The other person stopped talking.
Song Qi deftly bandaged the man's wound: "Is there anything else?"
"That's all, I just wanted to talk to you."
"Oh, really?" Song Qi smirked. "Can't you see we're busy here?"
Luo Shuyun noticed the commotion and immediately came over: "What's wrong?"
"This person always wants to talk to me," Song Qi immediately complained, giving Luo Shuyun a look.
Luo Shuyun's face hardened: "If you're not going to help, then don't come here and cause trouble."
"Senior Sister Luo, I'm sorry, I'll leave now." The man looked somewhat timid and was so frightened by Luo Shuyun that his face turned pale. He turned and ran away.
"What's wrong?" Luo Shuyun squatted down next to Song Qi.
Song Qi frowned: "I don't know if I'm overthinking it, but I always feel that this person is a bit strange."
"I'll go and tell the guards outside not to let anyone in."
"Okay." Song Qi nodded and went to the next person to prepare for bandaging.
On the day Lu Yuhuai and Ji Xuan had their duel, many people went to the city wall.
Song Qi and her group arrived early and managed to get a pretty good spot with a wide view.
This time, Ji Xuan spoke much less nonsense, and the two started fighting immediately upon meeting.
Although standing inside Yu Fengcheng's protective barrier, one could still feel the oppressive sense of death.
Both of them used deadly force.
"Ji Xuan seems to be much stronger than last time." Elder He stood to the side, his voice somewhat low.
"Master, will we win?" Song Qi tilted his head to look at him.
Elder He sighed and didn't say anything more.
At first, it wasn't obvious, but after half an hour, the gap between the two widened, and anyone could see that Lu Yuhuai was at a disadvantage.
Lu Yuhuai was also surprised; in just a few days, this person's cultivation level had increased by a whole level.
Ji Xuan's sword pierced Lu Yuhuai, and he quickly followed up with a palm strike.
Lu Yuhuai slammed heavily to the ground.
Ji Xuan's sword transformed into hundreds of sword energies in the air, stabbing towards Lu Yuhuai.
Elder He reacted quickly, throwing out his life-saving magic weapon. The object rapidly grew larger, obscuring Lu Yuhuai, and shattered into pieces the instant it touched Ji Xuan's sword energy.
This was his most prized possession, yet it couldn't withstand a single blow from Ji Xuan.
Elder He's face turned somewhat green.
Ji Xuan laughed: "Aren't you supposed to be a reputable sect? What, you promised to lend a hand during the martial arts competition?"
His sword hung high, its crimson glow the brightest color in the entire world.
"Qingyuan, can you stop it?" Song Qi frowned.
"I won't break it, but you probably can't withstand it," Qingyuan said. "Although that sword isn't as high-grade as mine, Ji Xuan's strength is far superior to yours."
"System, is the male lead going to die?" Song Qi frowned. After all, she was the one who called Lu Yuhuai over. If he were to die like this, even though it would just be a string of data, it would still feel a bit unsettling.
System NZ remained calm: "No, I think you should worry about yourself instead."
Ji Xuan stopped at the last moment, glancing in Song Qi's direction as he left.
Everyone present possessed exceptional spiritual vision, and they could clearly see Ji Xuan's gaze.
Lu Yuhuai was seriously injured, and when he was brought back, he looked as if he had been soaked in blood.
Song Qi frowned, wondering what kind of unfortunate plot this was.
Both the male and female leads are so miserable.
To save Lu Yuhuai, they immediately set up a teleportation array on the spot.
Song Qi also went back.
Not long after she left, various rumors began to circulate in Yu Fengcheng.
"I always felt that Fang Yaoyao's relationship with the Demon Lord was unusual."
"I think so too, otherwise why would I glance at her before leaving?"
"I heard that the sect leader came here because of Fang Yaoyao. Fang Yaoyao ignored my advice and insisted on going out to collect herbs. Then she ran into Ji Xuan, and then she summoned the sect leader. Don't you think this was all planned in advance?"
"Possibly."
"Yeah, look at Fang Yaoyao, she went to the Demon Realm and came back without any trouble. Who else is so lucky?"
...
Luo Shuyun stood not far away, listening to their increasingly rambling conversation, and frowned deeply.
After returning home, she immediately sent a message to Song Qi.
Song Qi wasn't very surprised to see Luo Shuyun's message; it would be strange if nothing unexpected happened.
These past few days, she's also sensed the strange attitudes of other people around her.
She pretended not to know, and went to see Lu Yuhuai every day, then cultivated.
Luo Shuyun and the others returned a few days later. This practical activity was short, but it was more exciting than the previous thirty-day practical activity.
Song Qi went to pick up Luo Shuyun, stood there, feeling the gazes of everyone, and his expression remained unchanged.
"You're back?" Song Qi smiled at Luo Shuyun.
Luo Shuyun frowned and pulled Song Qi away: "What are you going to do? Once you're labeled a demon spy, things will get very difficult."
"But you'll definitely be labeled a demon spy. We just need to stick to the original plan. You'd better tell the Luo family that the Green Mountain Sect might be in chaos in a few days. If possible, put in a good word for me."
“Okay.” Luo Shuyun nodded.
Who knew that it wouldn't even be a few days later.
Not long after Song Qi and Luo Shuyun sat down, the Grand Elder's men arrived, and there were quite a few of them.
"Junior sister, please go to the Punishment Hall."
"Hmm." Song Qi nodded, and calmly took out the sect leader's token and put it in his pocket.
Luo Shuyun originally wanted to go with them, but remembering what Song Qi had just said, she sat down again and decided to contact her father as soon as they left.
"Junior sister, aren't you scared?"
"I've done nothing wrong, I'm upright and honest, what's there to be afraid of?" Song Qi said calmly, glancing at the person who spoke. "Have I done something wrong?"
The person who was speaking just now gave Song Qi a look and shut up.
Song Qi smiled and didn't seem to mind.
Quite a few people had already arrived at the Punishment Hall, and most of the elders were present.
"Fang Yaoyao! How dare you collude with the demons! You have some nerve!" Fang Yi spoke first, pointing at Song Qi and glaring at him.
"Where's the evidence?" Song Qi looked at Fang Yi, his expression unchanged. "Don't tell me the evidence is that I wasn't injured when I went to the Demon Realm. That kind of nonsense can't prove that I colluded with the Demon Realm."
Fang Yi froze for a moment, just as he was about to say that.
“I’ve met that Demon Lord twice and I knew he wasn’t quite right in the head, like a lunatic. You all have dealt with him quite a few times, you must know that.” Song Qi glanced at the faces of the elders and smiled.
Ji Xuan, far away, sneezed.
"No way, you guys are really going to use this ridiculous reason?" Song Qi was speechless.
"You're the one who summoned the sect leader," Fang Yi said coldly.
Song Qi laughed: "Because my master said that I would probably be targeted by Ji Xuan when I go to Yu Feng City this time. He told me to contact him when I encounter the Demon Lord. If he hadn't said that, would I have done it?"
"Are you resorting to nonsense because you can't find any other reason? Or are you trying to seize power because Master is seriously injured and unconscious?"
"Don't make false accusations!" Elder Fang Yi slammed his hand on the table and pointed at Song Qi.
Song Qi smirked and looked at him coldly: "What, so you have no evidence to prove that I colluded with the demons, and it's all just speculation?"
"If you are not a spy of the demon race, why would you harm those injured cultivators?" This time, it was another elder who spoke, the Grand Elder of the Green Mountain Sect.
The Grand Elder doesn't usually get involved in affairs and rarely appears in public.
"What harm?" Song Qi frowned.
"After you bandaged those cultivators, their wounds all started festering, and some have already died." The Grand Elder stared at Song Qi. "How do you explain this?"
"The medicine and all the bandages were provided by you." Song Qi looked up at the Grand Elder. "Judging from the current situation, it is clear that someone is trying to frame me. I am only twelve years old, and I have spent eleven years next to the Fang family's woodshed. When should I be colluding with the demons?"
"Come, tell me."
The people around them exchanged glances and whispered among themselves.
Indeed, judging from his age, he doesn't seem like a demon spy.
"So, here's the question: with my master currently unconscious, why would someone want to label me a demon spy?"
"Is it because I became Lu Yuhuai's apprentice and possess a divine sword? My future is indeed bright, so who do you think is trying to suppress me now?"
The other elders exchanged glances; they all understood what Song Qi meant.
“I suggest we investigate where these rumors about me being a demon spy came from,” Song Qi said, looking at Elder Fang Yi. “I know I have some personal grudges with certain elders, but isn’t it inappropriate to let personal feelings get involved in this matter?”
Elder Fang Yi's face was extremely ugly.
"Besides, if I were a demon spy, would you mean my master is mentally challenged and blind?" Song Qi revealed eight teeth.
