Chapter 288 How dare you act so arrogantly without a master?
Ding Xiang was silent for a long time, then raised her head and looked at Li Qi. She whispered:
"At least, that's how it is for the Palace Master."
"Why?!"
"have no idea……"
Ding Xiang shook her head, hesitated for a while and said:
“Junior Sister Feng, in fact, I noticed that something was wrong with the Palace Master a long time ago.
"She asked us to change our cultivation techniques and gave us golden elixirs that could improve our strength... It seemed like she was helping us to advance to the Grandmaster level faster, but in fact..."
Ding Xiang hesitated to speak here, with some pain in her eyes: "...In fact, it is more like training a group of 'abandoned children' who can be abandoned at any time. Even Xihua Palace itself is something that can be abandoned at any time to her."
Perhaps because she was facing her closest junior sister, Ding Xiang told Li Qi a lot.
Li Qi learned from her that there had been something wrong with the Palace Master of Xihua Palace for a long time.
First, she secretly changed the skills of Xihua Palace, making the originally moderate and peaceful "Hundred Flowers Heart Sutra" become slightly evil.
Secondly, starting from a few years ago, she would let some elite disciples of Xihua Palace take the golden elixir.
Li Qi thought that Zhou Que was very good at taking golden elixirs and that she was bewitched by the Demon Sect, but in fact this was not the case at all. Xihua Palace itself was connected with the Demon Sect, and Zhou Que was just following her master's orders.
From that time on, Hua Niao Feng Yue had already sensed that something was wrong.
The same is true for Hua Wubai.
But since he was picked up by Xihua Palace, he would obey whatever was done by the superiors carefully, so it had little impact on him.
The four people, Hua Niao Feng Yue, also stayed in Xihua Palace for their own reasons.
Dingxiang did not get involved to a deeper level, but just acted as before, doing certain things as the representative of Xihua Palace in the world.
Zhou Que completely obeyed the Palace Master's words. She would eat the golden elixir if she was asked to, and would practice a different technique if she was asked to. Therefore, she knew more than Ding Xiang.
Jing Feng was in a middle state. She neither acted like before nor completely obeyed the Palace Master's words. That was why she was in the team going to Longwu Pavilion this time.
As for the last 'month'.
Her real name is Zhang Yueling. When she realized something was wrong with Xihua Palace, she used the excuse of "going out to travel" to wander around the world.
She disappeared near the northern snowfields a year ago and has never been found since.
Dingxiang felt that Zhang Yueling was disappointed with the current Xihua Palace, so she faked her death and left.
Zhou Que felt that Zhang Yueling might have been ambushed to death somewhere. After all, Zhang Yueling was the youngest and had the lowest cultivation level among everyone. She had just broken through to the fifth level when she disappeared.
Li Qi thought to himself after listening to Ding Xiang's words.
If Jing Feng was sent out as a pawn because she was a middle-of-the-road person who didn't lean on either side, then why did Hua Wubai, a loyal follower of the Palace Master who completely obeyed the Palace Master's orders, go to Longwu Pavilion to carry out this mission? Could it be that he had another mission and had to go to Longwu Pavilion in person?
Li Qi was still thinking. Ding Xiang looked at him and suddenly reminded him, "By the way, no matter what happens later, don't get too excited."
"What's the meaning?"
Li Qi asked in confusion, and then he heard screams coming from outside.
Those were the screams of the group of people who came with the disciples of Xihua Palace!
Hearing the voice, Li Qi's pupils shrank slightly. He glanced at Dingxiang who seemed not to hear it, opened the door, rushed out of the cabin and onto the deck.
As soon as he arrived on the deck, he saw a scene that shocked him.
Yin Wenfan, the young man with thick eyebrows who looked like a handsome gentleman before, now looked like a tiger and stood there!
He grabbed the hand of a traitor of the righteous path with one hand and bit the other's neck with the other. When he saw Li Qi rushing out, he tore off the flesh and blood on the man's neck and swallowed it whole, then smiled and said to Li Qi:
"Junior Sister Jing, would you like some?"
“…”
Li Qi looked at the traitor who had died with his eyes open, and forced a smile, saying:
"Brother... you are in such a refined mood. I, your junior sister, will not get involved."
Li Qi said this, but Yin Wenfan didn't care. He opened his big scarlet mouth and said with a smile, "Yes, I heard from your Palace Master that your immortal body is a rabbit immortal. Rabbits don't like to eat meat. I understand."
“…”
Jing Feng is also a demon warrior? Li Qi was slightly stunned. This was something Mo Zifeng had never mentioned to him. Moreover, when Jing Feng was stopped by Adam No. 4, he did not show his transformation, so Li Qi thought Jing Feng was normal.
But now it seems that Jing Feng had already taken the golden elixir.
Without showing any sign of abnormality in front of Yin Wenfan, Li Qi just smiled and watched without saying anything.
On the other hand, Zhou Hong, who had come with the team earlier, ran to Li Qi and shouted for help: "Fairy Jing...Fairy Jing!! Save me! Save me!!! You promised me that you would help me!!!"
"Oh, Junior Sister Jing likes this?"
Yin Wenfan looked at Zhou Hong who was begging for mercy, and looked at Li Qi with a slightly teasing look.
Li Qi looked at Zhou Hong who was crying while hugging his thigh. After a moment of silence, he kicked Zhou Hong aside and looked at him coldly: "He is useless now. You can do whatever you want with him, Senior Brother."
"!? " Zhou Hong, who was kicked away, looked up in disbelief. Jing Feng's image was reflected in his pupils, but in that image, the figure of the evil ghost from the underworld seemed to be overlapped.
"You...you lied to me!! You lied to me!!!"
Zhou Hong screamed at the top of his lungs, his voice filled with despair.
Looking at the guy who had brought this upon himself, Li Qi showed a slightly charming smile in the manner of Jing Feng and said to him:
"Mr. Zhou, when did you feel that I had never lied to you?"
“…”
Looking at Jing Feng's smile, Zhou Hong seemed to understand everything at that moment.
He finally felt regret and fear. He wanted to kneel in front of Li Qi and ask him to save him. As long as he could survive, he was willing to give everything! But Yin Wenfan didn't give him a chance.
Seeing that Li Qi had no interest in Zhou Hong, Yin Wenfan's big hand turned into a tiger claw and grabbed Zhou Hong's neck.
"Since Junior Sister Jing is so kind, I will gladly accept it."
After he said that, he didn't even give Zhou Hong a chance to speak and slapped him through the heart.
He took out the bloody but still beating heart.
Li Qi looked away, letting the crunching sound of food ring in his ears without looking at Yin Wenfan.
His sight fell on the last few disciples of Xihua Palace who were trembling with fear in the distance. Seeing that the other people of Shengxian Sect on the boat were surrounding them, he could not help but say to Yin Wenfan: "Since Senior Brother is having a meal here, we will not disturb your elegance..."
"Hey, Junior Sister, don't be in such a hurry to leave."
Yin Wenfan, who had transformed into a tiger man and was more than two meters tall, stood in front of Li Qi.
He looked down at the petite figure below, then looked at the several Xihua Palace disciples standing nearby, pointed his finger and said:
"I've long heard that the disciples of Xihua Palace are multi-talented, especially in singing and dancing, which are simply the best in the world. I've never seen them before, so I'd like to see them for myself."
"…What do you mean?"
"Hey, Junior Sister, you don't have to be so blunt, right? The journey to the outer sea is long and it will be very boring. Why not sing and dance for some entertainment? What do you think, Junior Sister?"
Yin Wenfan's tiger face was so furry that his expression could not be seen clearly, but his narrowed eyes seemed to reveal some lustful thoughts.
The lustful gaze stared at Li Qi from top to bottom, giving Li Qi goose bumps all over his body.
You can tell what this guy wants to do just by looking at his eyes! Li Qi's eyes were slightly cold.
If he hadn't been concerned that there might be a master on this ship, he would have definitely beheaded the tiger-headed brat with a single blow!
After staring at Yin Wenfan for a while, Li Qi smiled and said, "Brother, singing and dancing also require physical strength. The sisters have been exhausted from the long journey and need to rest for a while."
"It's just singing and dancing, how much energy can it consume?" Yin Wenfan said, grabbing Li Qi's arm with one hand, pulling him in front of him, and said with a lecherous look: "Besides, if Junior Sister really feels tired, it's okay for her to rest in Senior Brother's arms..."
Li Qi clenched his fists, his eyes cold.
Just at this moment, Ding Xiang ran out of the room. Seeing this scene, she repeatedly advised: "Brother Yin! The Palace Master asked us to welcome Junior Sister. Junior Sister will have to see the Palace Master after she gets off the boat in a while! During this period, we must not..."
"Junior Sister Ding, this matter has nothing to do with you, please don't meddle in it."
Seeing Dingxiang running out to save the situation, Yin Wenfan's expression became impatient, as if he really disliked Dingxiang's presence.
Yin Wenfan's change in attitude was seen by the members of the Shengxian Sect around him. They cooperated well and surrounded everyone from the Xihua Palace together, their expressions filled with disgusting lust.
Ding Xiang's heart tightened when she saw this. She said sharply, "Yin Wenfan! Don't forget what your sect's guardian told you before you came here!!"
"Don't use the Four Elephants Dharma Protectors to pressure me! I won't harm your lives! I can explain even if I go back! Dingxiang, if you keep nagging, I'll take you with me..."
Yin Wenfan shouted angrily at Ding Xiang.
It seems that the Four Symbols Guardian that Dingxiang mentioned made him unhappy.
But the person who was even more unhappy than him was Li Qi.
Seeing Yin Wenfan holding onto his arm, Li Qi could no longer bear it. Without waiting for him to finish, he grabbed Yin Wenfan's thick tiger palm with his backhand and broke it with his right hand! Without waiting for Yin Wenfan to scream, he raised his foot and kicked him in the abdomen, pressing him heavily onto the deck. Finally, he stepped on his neck with his foot, locking Yin Wenfan's body with his Qi.
After doing all this, Li Qi, who was holding Yin Wenfan down, asked Ding Xiang, "Sister Ding, is there a Grandmaster on this ship?"
“…”
Because the scene happened too quickly, Ding Xiang didn't react at all. It was not until Li Qi asked her that she came back to her senses. She shook her head from side to side and subconsciously.
Seeing Ding Xiang's response, Li Qi's mouth corners slightly raised, but there was no smile in his eyes, which were filled with bone-chilling coldness.
He bent down, lowered his head and looked at Yin Wenfan who was being stepped on, and said word by word: "Without a master, you still dare to be so arrogant? Huh?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Li Qi suddenly exerted force on his feet, and then with a "bang", Yin Wenfan's chest was crushed by Li Qi's disguised small feet! The chest was shattered, the bones were broken, and the internal organs were all crushed!
With just one kick, Yin Wenfan, who was at the peak of the fourth rank, died instantly!
Li Qi's feet slowly retracted from his chest, and there was not a single drop of blood on them! Ding Xiang stared at this scene in a daze. She looked at the aura wrapped around Li Qi's feet. It was that aura that prevented Li Qi's feet from being stained with Yin Wenfan's blood.
When she saw the strong energy, Dingxiang also understood something.
Jingfeng…not Jingfeng.
This is a master in disguise! And he is very likely a master of the righteous way!
