Chapter 442: True Play, Fake Scheme
For some unknown reason, the Demon Clan's palace was in chaos.
When Xinyi arrived, she saw the palace guards running back and forth like headless flies.
He didn't understand and looked at Zhan Li beside him. The latter just narrowed his eyes and looked as if he understood.
"It's probably Adao's method."
Without waiting for Xinyi to ask, Zhanli told it.
Ah Dao? That little guy has such ability?
Zhan Li did not lead everyone through the palace gate, but instead took them through a water culvert. In this way, no one knew what happened at the palace gate.
Although it is not very glorious, it is better than having a smooth journey.
Lingxiang often taught Zhanli that if you want to accomplish something, you must be flexible. No matter what method you use, as long as the final result is right, it is a good method.
If the rice tastes delicious in your mouth, who cares whether it comes from the earth or has been nourished by gold?
Before arriving at the palace, Xinyi saw two figures that looked very familiar, but because the distance was too far and the two figures flashed by, she could not see clearly who they were.
There are so few people that Xinyi is familiar with that she can count them on her fingers.
However, someone with such speed who can come and go freely in the demon territory must be no ordinary person. I just don't know whether he is an enemy or a friend.
At this moment, there was another commotion in the distance, as if the guards in the palace had discovered something again.
Soon, two figures, one tall and one short, jumped out and ran in an unknown direction, followed by a group of demon guards.
Looking at the two people who had outrun Zhang Fei, Xinyi looked embarrassed and quickly turned her back and hid.
Not only Xinyi, but also Zhanli and other Taoists hid behind the wall.
"That is..." Xinyi said hesitantly.
"I don't know him..." Zhan Li responded firmly.
"Well... let them be..."
Xinyi suggested, and the other Taoist sects also responded.
It wasn't that he didn't want to acknowledge them, but those two were crying and snotting, so much so that they could have been thrown two miles away. As a Taoist, he simply couldn't face acknowledging them...
It's so embarrassing...
Moreover, if he showed up now, he would have to fight with these guards. Everyone hadn't recovered from the battle with Fei Lian and Shang Lu yet...
They are very tired!
Not only Xinyi, but even Zhanli felt at ease and let it go.
Although Adao's cultivation level is not very high, he is very smart and is very familiar with the palace. The two of them will definitely be able to escape.
Moreover, if these two people disrupt the order in the palace, it will be much easier for them to sneak in.
This is a very profitable business, so why not do it?
A friend's death is better than the death of this poor Taoist...
Therefore, everyone unanimously decided to let them make trouble!
But things in this world often go against one's wishes. Just when everyone let down their guard and lay low, a head suddenly jumped out.
"Huh? Why are you guys here too?"
It’s Long Qi.
The sudden change scared everyone, but Zhan Li remained calm.
Zhan Li had thought about this a long time ago. He and Adao knew quite a bit about the structure of the palace, so it was only a matter of time before the two of them found this place. He just didn't expect them to come so soon.
As soon as Ah Dao saw Zhan Li, he immediately rushed over to him, tears and snot running down his face. He rubbed himself against Zhan Li and listed all of Long Qi's "crimes" in detail.
They said he was rash and greedy, and that he was big but brainless. In short, there was not a single good word to say about him.
Zhan Li has never been able to do anything with the little guy Adao. He can only coax him and try hard not to care about the snot and saliva covering his body.
This is the clothes his master gave him! There are even little flowers embroidered on it by his master! It’s a little ugly, but he loves it!
But what else can we do...
Tsk!
What a bad fate!
It’s all bad fate!
Long Qi didn't care about the atmosphere at all, nor did he take Adao's accusation to heart. He just sat down in front of Xinyi and asked himself:
"How did you come up with the idea of hiding here? Have you dealt with the demons outside? Why don't you go out?"
These were three good questions in a row, but Xinyi didn't know how to answer them.
I can't say it's to avoid you two.
The others were also silent, some with their eyes closed pretending to sleep, some blaming each other, and some pretending to have something on their hands. In short, they didn't say a word.
What a joke. This person is from your Yuanqing Sect. Yuanqing Sect’s affairs should naturally be resolved by your Yuanqing Sect.
Xinyi felt sad. After all, they had lived and died together, yet they all stood aside and watched coldly.
People!
Oh!
Good people have a different heart than the ancient world...
"Didn't you come to the Demon Palace a long time ago? Why are you still hanging around outside?"
What a great way to transform the invisible object into offense!
The Taoists on the side all looked over, and some couldn't help but secretly applaud.
As expected, it was the Yuanqing faction that turned the passive situation into the active one and reversed the situation.
When Xinyi saw this, she really wanted to roll her eyes, but she held it back.
hypocritical!
How hypocritical!
What kind of evil people are these fellow travelers!
Long Qi didn't notice anything wrong, he just pouted at Adao and complained, "It's all because of this little guy, saying 'I know the Demon Palace like the back of my hand, I can find my master in a moment', but now he's playing hide-and-seek with those guards."
When Ah Dao heard this, he jumped up and was about to bite Long Qi. Fortunately, Zhan Li hugged him and thus a chaos was avoided.
Zhan Li sighed helplessly: With a powerful enemy at the doorstep, what's all this chaos going on?
After finally calming Ah Dao down, Long Qi started to complain again, "Alas, this brat can't be relied on anymore. It seems I can only rely on you guys."
On purpose!
This guy definitely did it on purpose!
Ah Dao, who had just calmed down, could no longer hold back and suddenly jumped onto Long Qi, biting and nibbling him, unwilling to give up.
I tell you to spit blood! I tell you to lie! I tell you to talk nonsense...
The water culvert, which was already not very spacious, became even more crowded.
After the quarrel, Long Qi finally came to his senses. With a distorted face, he asked everyone incoherently what their plans were.
He had experienced the guards of the Demon Palace before. Although he was fooled by them, they were not useless. Otherwise, they would not have been able to discover his and Adao's traces in such a short time.
Besides, it is not advisable to stay here for a long time, as we will be discovered by the guards sooner or later.
Long Qi's analysis was very reasonable and everyone understood.
I originally wanted to sneak in quietly, but now it seems that a battle is inevitable.
"In that case, instead of wasting time here, it's better to show up. We have to fight anyway, and the sooner we fight, the sooner it will be over." said a burly Taoist priest from an unknown sect.
Hearing this, everyone echoed in unison.
We are originally here to destroy the lair of the demon clan, so hiding here is not a good idea.
After the resolution was made, a group of people went out one after another, each with their backs standing straight, looking quite heroic like "a brave warrior going away".
But how could they know that all this was part of Long Qi's plan, and Xinyi had seen through it long ago. The two of them just exchanged glances and coordinated in a play.
This group of Taoists must have forgotten that they have the power of clone talismans. Even if they cannot fight the enemy, they can only break the talismans and cause chaos so that they can go and save Lingxiang.
Long Qi had already discovered the whereabouts of the group, so he deliberately came to them.
The fight between Adao and Long Qi was also something they had agreed upon long ago. Although it was somewhat mixed with some personal grudges, how could it not be considered "real but fake"?
Although the blood talisman was not easy to obtain, I believe that Master Fuyin will forgive him for saving Lingxiang.
