While Feng Guang was secretly pleased, Sun Yuanshan was on the verge of exploding with anger, but he only managed to maintain a respectful attitude because of Qi Chang'an's status.
"Alliance Leader Qi," Sun Yuanshan said sarcastically, "you wouldn't be deliberately favoring this Miss Xia because of your good relationship with Lord Xia, would you?"
The leader of the Qingcheng Sect stepped forward and said, "Sect Leader Sun, you should watch your words! We all know what kind of person Alliance Leader Qi is. He is upright and honest, and he never acts out of personal gain. How can you arbitrarily accuse Alliance Leader Qi of protecting others?"
“That’s right, we have all seen what Alliance Leader Qi has done over the years.” The others chimed in.
Sun Yuanshan's expression was not good. He said with a gloomy face, "Since Alliance Leader Qi does not intend to favor anyone, how exactly does Alliance Leader Qi plan to handle this matter?"
Qi Chang'an is usually upright and gentle in his conduct, so he is not low in the eyes of others. If Sun Yuanshan publicly accuses Qi Chang'an without evidence, he will only make himself the target of public criticism.
Qi Chang'an simply smiled at Sun Yuanshan's provocation and said slowly and forcefully, "There is a very simple way to prove whether Feng Guang intends to harm Master Xiao."
"I wonder what method Alliance Leader Qi is referring to?" Sun Yuanshan adopted a leisurely and expectant demeanor, eager to hear what method Qi Chang'an could come up with.
Qi Chang'an glanced at Xiao Baishu, who had been helped up, and said with a smile, "I believe that no one knows better than Xiao Baishu whether Feng Guang did these things to harm or save him. Since Xiao Baishu is not in any danger, why not wait until he wakes up and ask him?"
After Qi Chang'an reminded them, everyone realized that Xiao Baishu had fainted, not died. Whether Feng Guang was telling the truth or not, they could just ask him later.
Because Sun Yuanshan initially focused the conflict on Feng Guang, everyone's attention was drawn to Feng Guang, and they forgot that Xiao Baishu was still alive.
Sun Yuanshan's expression was strained, but he feigned composure and said, "So, before Master Xiao wakes up, we're just going to ignore this suspicious Miss Xia? What if... she flees to avoid punishment during this time?"
That makes some sense.
The female leader of the Emei Sect stepped forward, about to say something, but Qi Chang'an smiled and said, "Everyone, don't worry about this. Before Master Xiao wakes up, I will keep a close watch on Feng Guang. You can rest assured that with me watching over him, Feng Guang won't run away, and no one else will be able to get close."
After all, there are very few people in this martial arts world who can rival Qi Chang'an.
Sun Yuanshan then said, "If it were you..."
"Sect Leader Sun can rest assured." Qi Chang'an interrupted Sun Yuanshan and said calmly, "If the glory disappears under my watch, then I, Qi, will pay with my life."
After this statement was made, no one dared to raise any further questions.
After her initial surprise, Feng Guang quietly tugged at his hand and said, "Hey... you don't have to make it sound so serious. You're putting a lot of pressure on me..."
How could she possibly sneak out to play without feeling guilty?
"Don't worry." Qi Chang'an seemed unable to understand her fear and said softly, "I will definitely protect you."
