"Leave the pills and hidden weapons behind..."
The eldest monster muttered to himself for a moment, then asked curiously, "Second monster, how do we know if they've handed over everything?"
"Hehe, then we'll need to check them one by one to see if anyone is hiding anything on them!"
After the two monsters finished their lewd laughter, the big monster seemed to understand something and chuckled as well: "Alright, then these two are yours. As for that girl from the Wuxian Pavilion, I'll check her out later!"
The two exchanged a glance and then burst into lewd laughter again.
Whether they are teenagers or men in their seventies or eighties, their aesthetic tastes are always quite similar. Jing Zhe had long understood their thoughts.
"..."
He could feel Mu Qingren behind him trembling slightly. He reached back, took her slender, cool hand in his, and gently squeezed it to comfort her.
But his other hand was clenched into a fist, staring at the Twin Monsters of Tongtian, his eyes flashing with a cold, sinister light.
Although Mu Qingren wasn't his woman, for some reason, he was particularly disgusted by anyone making advances towards her!
Hey, this damn possessiveness!
Moreover, based on his judgment of the Twin Monsters of Tongtian, he knew that apart from their mischievous actions, he would never let either of them go back!
His master, the old medicine boy, was injured, and his and Mu Qingren's cultivation levels were insignificant in the eyes of the two grandmasters. For so many years, what the two of them wanted most was the medicine that his master had refined. Once they took all the medicine, how could they leave them any way to live?
As for promises?
Ha, what kind of promise does a scoundrel make!
"Seniors, my master is injured and cannot stay!"
"Oh? He's not staying, but you're staying?"
The two oddballs raised an eyebrow.
"Me?"
Jing Zhe chuckled, his face sly: "I still have to take care of my master, how can I stay?"
"did you mean…"
The two strange beings from the heavens both became interested.
"Of course we kept her!"
After Jing Zhe finished speaking, he used force to pull Mu Qingren out from behind and shoved her in front of him.
Mu Qingren's mind went completely blank for a moment.
She was just enjoying the protection Jing Zhe had provided, and was still feeling grateful, when in the blink of an eye, she was... pushed out?
Just now, when Jing Zhe pulled her out, he subtly pinched the back of her hand twice with his fingers. Mu Qingren frowned, wondering if those two pinches had any special meaning.
"..."
Not only was Mu Qingren stunned, but the two monsters from Tongtian were also dumbfounded.
"I'm not actually very familiar with Pavilion Master Mu, and she was the one who dragged me here to steal the Breakthrough Flower. So if something goes wrong, she'll naturally have to take the blame. Don't you two seniors agree?"
"..."
After a moment of silence, the two eccentrics clapped their hands and laughed.
"Wonderful, wonderful! Your shamelessness rivals mine when I was young! If you weren't Old Medicine Boy's apprentice, I would have taken you on as my own, hahaha!"
If a hint of greed and malice hadn't flashed in his eyes, Jing Zhe might have actually believed his lies.
So he scratched his head and smiled, "Senior, you flatter me. I was just telling the truth! Besides, even birds in the same forest will fly away when disaster strikes. How much more so for us, who are not even a couple? How can we care about her at a time like this?"
Erguai was taken aback, then laughed and said, "I understand now. You must have feelings for that girl, but she doesn't reciprocate, right? But that's understandable. She's young, beautiful, and highly skilled in martial arts. She's also the head of the Wuxian Pavilion. What do you have besides a passable appearance?"
"..."
Jing Zhe really wanted to put his face close to his and ask him: You call such a handsome face "okay"?
"But you're really ruthless. Getting angry after being rejected and pushing a girl out in a dangerous situation? Well, since you've made this choice, I'll grant your wish! Leave the pills and hidden weapons behind, then leave with your master!"
As he said this, Erguai winked at Daguai, and the two of them took a few steps forward, getting less than ten meters away from Jing Zhe and the others!
"Master, let's leave the things here and go!"
The old medicine boy felt ashamed of Jing Zhe's actions, but when Jing Zhe turned his back to him, he gave him a wink, which made him realize something. Although he couldn't guess what other ideas Jing Zhe could come up with at this point, the old medicine boy still nodded in agreement and prepared to act according to the situation.
"Seniors, would you like me to examine her?"
Jing Zhe stood behind Mu Qingren and grinned lewdly.
"Heh, I think you're just trying to take advantage of the girl, aren't you? You'd better just hand over what you have on you, and you don't need to take anything from the girl!"
"I'll do it!"
Before the second monster could finish speaking, the first monster volunteered to step forward. Mu Qingren gripped the hilt of her sword, determined that if they dared to come up, she would fight them to the death rather than let anyone touch her body!
Thinking about this, she paused for a moment.
Why didn't she draw her sword to teach him a lesson after he touched her so many times before?
Some things you can't understand just by thinking about them.
What pains her most right now isn't these two ugly and terrifying old men in front of her; at worst, she'll just die, right?
What saddened and puzzled her the most was why Jing Zhe pushed her out—the two pinches he made at the end must have been an illusion, right?
While feeling sad, I also felt extremely guilty: Why was I so stubborn before, insisting on bringing him here?
So all of this is her own fault, even if he chooses to push her out, she deserves it!
Thinking this, he gripped the sword even tighter, his eyes becoming even more piercing, as if he were ready to die.
The Twin Monsters of Tongtian had already noticed her actions, but they were not worried at all: she was just a girl at the fifth level of the realm, what big waves could she possibly cause?
Jing Zhe had been hiding behind Mu Qingren. Seeing that the Tongtian Twins' attention was now focused on Mu Qingren, he knew that his chance had come!
He secretly pulled a grenade from his pocket and, under the cover of Mu Qingren's slender back, lit the fuse with a tinderbox!
He silently counted down, and with two seconds left before the explosion, he threw her out, then picked up Mu Qingren, shouted "Watch out!" and flew backward.
The old medicine boy had been focusing all his attention on Jing Zhe ever since he saw the look in his eyes. When he saw Jing Zhe pull out a grenade, he was already prepared, so before Jing Zhe could run away, he darted out first...
All the actions happened in the blink of an eye. The two monsters of Tongtian tensed up after hearing the word "be careful" and immediately saw the dark thing from the night before flying towards them.
Without saying a word, he directly used his internal energy to create a defensive barrier.
"boom!"
The next moment, the grenade exploded in mid-air.
