Noticing Chu Qinghe's ambiguous smile, Shuimu Yinji turned her head slightly and then transmitted her voice through her true energy: "Is there a problem?"
Hearing Shuimu Yinji's question, Chu Qinghe turned his gaze back and said, "It's not a big problem, it's just that someone secretly poisoned me just now."
"Poisoning in secret?"
Jellyfish Yin Ji frowned slightly, and her body tensed up involuntarily.
But he relaxed in an instant.
This is one of the advantages of having Chu Qinghe by your side.
As long as Chu Qinghe is by their side, they don't need to worry about any kind of poison.
As her thoughts raced, Jellyfish Yin Ji transmitted her voice, "People from the Great Yuan Kingdom?"
Chu Qinghe nodded slightly in acknowledgment, and then slowly said, "However, there is a martial artist in the late stage of the Celestial Realm inside."
Upon learning that there was actually a late-stage Celestial Realm martial artist among the Great Yuan Kingdom's forces this time, a hint of surprise flashed in Shuimu Yinji's eyes.
However, seeing Chu Qinghe's smiling and calm demeanor, Shuimu Yinji did not ask any further questions, but she couldn't help but feel a little curious.
In the field.
After pondering for a while, Qiao Feng suddenly said in a deep voice, "It has not been easy for me, Qiao Feng, to get to where I am today. Becoming the leader of the Beggars' Sect is also due to the kindness of my brothers in the sect. Since some brothers in the sect do not want me to become the chief leader, they can say so openly. I am a fine man and naturally will not covet the position of chief leader."
Finally, Qiao Feng gritted his teeth and said, "Today, my identity is unknown, and it is no longer appropriate for me to remain in the Beggars' Sect."
As he spoke, Qiao Feng raised his hand and pulled out a long, emerald-green staff from his waist behind him, then stuck it into the ground.
Upon hearing this, the expressions of the Beggars' Sect members present changed drastically.
Several elders and even some disciples of the Northern Beggars' Sect couldn't help but speak up.
"Chief Qiao, you mustn't!"
"Indeed! Besides Chief Qiao, who else in the Northern Beggars' Clan is qualified to be the chief?"
"That's right, I admire no one but Chief Steve Jobs."
...
Qiao Feng's words were like pouring a ladle of ice water into a pot of boiling oil, instantly causing the quiet members of the Northern Beggars' Clan to erupt in a frenzy.
The fact that Qiao Feng received such a high number of votes before, even leading some disciples of the Southern Beggars' Sect to secretly vote for him, shows his high standing among the Beggars' Sect disciples.
Now that they know Qiao Feng is preparing to leave, these disciples are naturally unwilling to accept it.
Seeing this, Wang Yuyan, who was standing next to them, couldn't help but ask, "When Chief Qiao was wronged before, these Beggar Clan disciples didn't react much, so why now...?"
Hearing Wang Yuyan's words, Xiao Zhao beside her said, "Chief Qiao is already a master in the late stage of the Grandmaster realm before he is even forty years old. In a few more years, he may even step into the Celestial Realm. If the Beggar Clan has a Celestial Realm master at that time, it will be able to return to the ranks of top forces."
"Now that Chief Qiao is leaving, it will be a huge loss for the Beggars' Sect. Naturally, the Beggars' Sect disciples do not want Chief Qiao to leave."
Upon hearing this, Wang Yuyan asked in confusion, "Since Chief Qiao is so important, and Chief Qiao himself didn't know about his own background as a Khitan from the Great Yuan Dynasty, why did he create all this trouble for himself?"
After thinking for a moment, Xiao Zhao said, "I don't know. Perhaps it's because Qiao Feng becoming the leader of the Beggars' Sect will affect the interests of some people in the Beggars' Sect!"
Qu Feiyan gave a light "humph": "Perhaps the Northern Shaolin Temple is also involved behind the scenes."
Wang Yuyan looked at Qu Feiyan in surprise and said, "Northern Shaolin?"
Qu Feiyan pouted and gestured towards Hong Qigong, saying, "Didn't you hear what Hong Qigong from the Southern Beggars' Sect said? This monk Zhiguang comes from the Northern Shaolin Temple. How could the Northern Shaolin Temple not know that monk Zhiguang is going to participate in something like today's Beggars' Sect gathering?"
"The Northern Shaolin Temple might be happy to have authorized this monk Zhiguang to participate in today's Beggars' Sect meeting."
Wang Yuyan pondered for a few moments and said, "Since Chief Hong Qigong gave a warning, why didn't he stop what happened today?"
Qu Feiyan curled her lip and said, "How can we stop them? They are well-prepared and have planned this all along. Didn't you see that even Qiao Feng was led by the nose? What can Chief Hong do?"
At this moment, Lin Shiyin sighed and said, "The wise remain wise, and the foolish remain foolish, but some people can only see the immediate benefits. Without Chief Qiao, it will be difficult for the Beggars' Sect to survive on Chief Hong alone."
Listening to the conversation between Qu Feiyan and the other two women, Kumārajīva couldn't help but glance at them in surprise.
Clearly, they hadn't expected the three women to have such a clear understanding of things.
In front of the Southern Beggars' Sect, Hong Qigong suddenly sighed.
When his gaze fell on Xu Changzhi and some elders of the Northern Beggars' Gang, he couldn't help but shake his head: "It's a pity that some of them have lived to the fullest, blinded by greed, and not even as insightful as a few young girls."
Thinking deeply, Hong Qigong couldn't help but sigh again.
Often, the most painful thing is having the will but not the power.
Just like now.
Hong Qigong knew perfectly well that the Beggars' Clan meeting would not be peaceful today, and he was also aware of the Beggars' Clan's decline after Qiao Feng's departure, but he was powerless to do anything about it.
.........
In the field.
At this moment, Xu Changzhi frowned deeply.
Qu Feiyan and Xiao Zhao, who were meeting the Beggars' Sect for the first time, could understand the losses the Beggars' Sect would suffer if they lost Qiao Feng, let alone him.
However, in Xu Changzhi's original plan, things would never have come to this.
However, due to the interference of Chu Qinghe and the other women, including Shui Mu Yin Ji, the situation spiraled out of his control.
