Elder Salty Fish took a sip of water, suppressed a laugh, and deeply felt that he had made the right decision to come here.
“Elder Fang Yi, matters should be prioritized. It would be too unpleasant for you to argue with a twelve-year-old child like me repeatedly if word got out,” Song Qi said, looking at Elder Fang Yi.
"Moreover, there was no grudge between you and me to begin with. It was only because of the Fang family that we were wronged. Moreover, it was the Fang family who mistreated me first. If someone didn't feed you and beat, insulted, and called you a slut all day long, and then reached out to you in a condescending manner to tell you that they had accepted you, Elder Fang Yi, how would you have reacted?"
Elder Fang Yi opened his mouth, but suddenly didn't know what to say.
I was actually led astray by this little girl.
Song Qi glanced into the inner room, knowing that the item would be found soon.
"So what do you want us to do?"
“A person who can freely enter and leave the main peak.” Song Qi tapped the table, then paused. “I will make some feeble rebuttals later. You lock me up, and then Elder Li says he wants to wait until Master wakes up before dealing with me, while Elder Fang Yi says he wants to deal with me immediately. Let’s see who will help Elder Fang Yi.”
“As the sect leader’s disciple, it is only natural for me to wait for the sect leader to wake up and deal with the situation.” Song Qi lowered his voice. “If the other party can’t wait, then there is obviously a problem, because he knows that I can clear my name once the sect leader wakes up. After Elder Li goes out, tell Senior Sister Luo that the Luo family can help me and be my backer. Tell them to be firm, because it would be strange if Elder Li’s personality was too firm.”
"Afterwards, most of the elders will probably agree to wait until the sect leader wakes up before making a decision, out of respect for the Luo family. After all, I can't escape the Green Mountain Sect's dungeon. Once this decision is made, if the other side still wants to kill me, they will definitely take action."
After listening for a while, Elder Salty Fish asked, "You suspect there's something wrong among the elders?"
“Hmm.” Song Qi nodded. “If we can freely enter and exit the main peak but can’t directly pass through the barrier, then we must know some other unknown methods to get in. Perhaps someone who has stayed in the Green Mountain Sect for a long time knows such unknown methods? I’m not sure, let’s try it first.”
"Why don't you doubt us?" Elder Salty Fish asked.
"Elder Li seems to be someone who hates trouble. If he were really a demon spy, he wouldn't be so... idle, staying out of the affairs of the Green Mountain Sect. As for Elder Fang Yi," Song Qi gave Fang Yi a look, "Elder Fang Yi has been in the Green Mountain Sect for so many years, yet he still causes trouble for a junior for the sake of his family. He doesn't seem very smart. Someone who could be a demon spy wouldn't do this."
"Moreover, Elder Fang Yi is so high-profile, and so many people in the Green Mountain Sect dislike him. With so many people watching him, it's not convenient for him to do anything."
The village elder took a sip of water and almost vomited.
Elder Fang Yi stared at Song Qi, speechless for a long time.
"You don't know your place!"
Song Qi smiled indifferently: "Elder Fang Yi, sometimes you can change your expression. Don't always glare."
System NZ: "Host, I feel like this elder will be driven to his death by you sooner or later."
"Found it!" someone shouted.
Song Qi instantly got into character. She paused for a moment, then frowned: "Found what?"
"Elder, we've found the letters between Fang Yaoyao and the Demon Clan." A person came out carrying a stack of things.
"Nonsense!" Song Qi's face darkened. "Elder Fang Yi, could this have been arranged by you?"
Elder Fang Yi sneered: "You picked these people yourself! How am I supposed to arrange things for them? Besides, they are Elder Li's disciples."
The two exchanged a glance, and Song Qi suddenly realized that Elder Fang Yi's acting skills were actually quite good.
"Guards, take Fang Yaoyao to the Punishment Hall! I want to see what you have to say now!" Elder Fang Yi sneered and flicked his sleeve.
Song Qi remained expressionless, only managing a slight twitch at the corner of his mouth.
Instantly, news spread that letters between Song Qi and the demons had been found in Song Qi's room.
The letter detailed how Song Qi conspired with the demons to harm the sect leader.
When Song Qi arrived at the punishment hall, someone tried to force her to kneel down, but she kicked them away.
"Someone framed me."
"Framed you? How were you framed?" Elder Fang Yi asked. "That's the main peak, not a place anyone can enter. Last time you said the poison on your wound was a setup, and we believed you, since many people go in and out of that place. Now tell me, how do you enter the main peak? Only you and the sect leader can go in!"
Song Qi clenched his fist: "Maybe someone has some secret way to get in?"
She observed the expressions of the elders present without making a sound. They were all seasoned veterans, and it was impossible to tell from their expressions who had a problem.
"Heh, what do you think the main peak is?" Elder Fang Yi sneered. "Luckily someone reported you and searched your courtyard, otherwise you would have fooled us. So sharp-tongued at twelve years old!"
“I think keeping Fang Yaoyao around is just asking for trouble. We should deal with him sooner rather than later, to make an example of him!” Elder Fang Yi said, staring at Song Qi.
Elder Xianyu spoke slowly and deliberately: "Let's wait until the sect leader wakes up before we talk about it. After all, he is the sect leader's disciple. Wouldn't it be inappropriate for us to overstep our bounds and do things on his behalf?"
“What’s wrong with it? It’s better to get rid of this scourge as soon as possible.” Elder Fang Yi pointed at Song Qi.
“I also think it’s better to wait for the sect leader to wake up. Although the sect leader’s injuries are quite serious, he is not far from waking up. Why don’t we lock Fang Yaoyao in the dungeon first?” Elder He said with a frown.
Song Qi clenched his fist and smirked, "Heh."
“This disciple is the master of the divine sword. We should kill him sooner rather than later. With the sect leader gone, no one can defeat Ji Xuan. If he is rescued, the consequences will be unimaginable,” Elder Zhu said, exchanging a glance with Song Qi.
"Heh, how come I didn't know the Green Mountain Sect was so vulnerable? The demons can come and go as they please." The head of the Luo family walked in, with Luo Shuyun following behind him. When she saw Song Qi, she frowned. She was very dissatisfied with what Song Qi was doing.
Song Qi smiled at Luo Shuyun.
The elders present noticed that the Luo family patriarch's expression varied.
"Patriarch Luo, this is a matter of the Green Mountain Sect, it has nothing to do with you!" Elder Fang Yi exploded upon seeing the Patriarch Luo.
Song Qi: If this elder were in modern times, he'd probably be a movie star or something.
Luo Shouxin sneered: "Yaoyao is my adopted daughter, why can't I get involved in this matter? I request that we wait until the sect leader wakes up before discussing it. I trust the sect leader's decision."
"Does the Luo family patriarch not believe our judgment?"
"I just don't believe Yaoyao would do such a thing." Luo Shouxin smirked. "What, has the Green Mountain Sect really fallen to this level? Without Sect Leader Lu, you can't even protect a single disciple? It's only a few days, and you're not even willing to wait? Why are you in such a hurry to take Yaoyao's life?"
The elders exchanged glances and remained silent for a few seconds.
"So let's put Fang Yaoyao in the dungeon for now." The elder said irritably. "Don't call me over again unless a demon comes in person."
After the elder finished speaking, he made the final decision and left with a flick of his sleeve.
"What about the sect leader's token?" another elder asked.
"Put it with Fang Yaoyao." After saying this, the First Elder glanced at Luo Shouxin and left.
"That dungeon is no place to stay." Elder Fang Yi looked at Song Qi and smirked, as if he was ready to watch a good show.
Song Qi said expressionlessly, "Don't worry about me. Maybe when Master wakes up and finds out how you've been bullying me, he'll let you all go in and experience it for yourselves."
Elder Fang Yi's expression froze, and with a flick of his sleeve, he quickly left.
This kid is so annoying.
Luo Shouxin immediately stepped forward: "Don't worry, once you come out of there, we'll go to the Luo family and formally adopt you as our goddaughter. We'll help you out outside."
"Thank you, godfather," Song Qi said obediently.
Luo Shuyun stood to the side watching Song Qi, her face grim, and didn't come closer.
Song Qi didn't say anything, just looked at her pitifully.
In the end, Luo Shuyun couldn't withstand Song Qi's glare and walked over helplessly: "Why does it have to be like this?"
"This is the best way." Song Qi hugged Luo Shuyun. "Don't worry."
The disciples nearby swarmed forward, trying to tie Song Qi up.
"I'll go with you myself, I don't need you to drag me along." Song Qi coldly looked around and stepped out of the punishment hall.
Qingyuan Sword is already hidden next to the dungeon. If anything happens, he will rush in and give a heads-up.
The dungeon was damp and cold, and never saw the sun. The Green Mountain Sect's dungeon imprisoned all sorts of heinous creatures, including humans, demons, and monsters.
Song Qi walked down the long corridor, listening to the people on both sides teasing and laughing at him.
She has a single cell, a privilege granted because she is still a disciple of the sect leader; the cells opposite are all full.
As soon as Song Qi entered, he used his divine sense to shake away all kinds of poisonous snakes and insects.
She found a place to sit down.
"Don't try any tricks."
"What's so funny? Once my master wakes up, the truth will come out." Song Qi smirked.
The disciple gave Song Qi a look and walked out.
Once they left, the cell became even more lively.
"Hey! New little sister, how old are you this year? What did you do wrong?"
"You're quite pretty, little sister. Do you know what true bliss is?"
"Little sister, say something, what are you shy about?"
There were people waving at her from the opposite side; they were barely clothed and extremely disgusting.
Thinking that the person on the other side was nothing but utterly wicked trash, Song Qi showed no mercy in his attack.
The people in the cell watched helplessly as his brain exploded, filling the air with a layer of blood mist.
"I have a bad temper, everyone please be a little quieter." Song Qi said calmly, "Killing you all would be as easy as turning my hand, and they probably wouldn't care whether you live or die."
The surroundings became quiet.
"Little sister, it was just a joke, why are you so angry?" A woman leaned against the railing and waved to Song Qi. Song Qi saw her flamboyant white tail and pointed ears hidden in her hair.
This is a fox demon.
Despite her tattered clothes, her allure was undeniable.
This world was originally a tripartite balance of power between humans, demons, and monsters. Later, the demon race gradually declined, and demons have become a rare species.
"He's an eyesore," Song Qi said, looking at her. "So, are you going to stand up for him?"
