Chapter 297 Wrongly accused?
Based solely on a scroll of secret techniques, he hastily concluded that the other party was a demon. He was indeed acting too rashly and without due consideration...
Li Gang's narrow eyes were deep and fixed on Qiu Chuji. "Master Qiu, if you still have doubts, I am willing to swear a solemn oath..."
Qiu Chuji coughed lightly, and gradually loosened his grip on Li Gang's hand. There was a hint of apology in his tone, "It seems that I have wronged you."
Li Gang gently rubbed his neck which was so painful from being squeezed, and remained silent, but a complicated light flashed in his eyes.
"Boy, don't blame me." Qiu Chuji sighed, his voice filled with helplessness and heaviness. "Lingyun Sect is currently in a precarious situation, facing internal and external troubles. We really can't afford to make even the slightest mistake."
"Disciple understands." Li Gang said in a slightly hoarse voice.
Qiu Chuji nodded slightly, then gently handed the secret method in his hand back to Li Gang, with a hint of trust and expectation in his eyes.
Although this secret method is quite useful.
But as the master of a peak, he disdains to take advantage of a disciple!
And he could see it.
Xiao Zu is very close to this kid.
Even if he is really a demon, he will not really kill him. At most, he will expel him from the sect as a punishment.
But since it was a misunderstanding, the fault lay with him first.
"Boy, you have made an invaluable contribution in finding Master Chongfeng and the others. I will report this matter to the Sect Master in detail, and he will surely reward you with the reward you deserve." Qiu Chuji paused, his expression slightly embarrassed. "However, I was wrong to blame you today, and I will make amends for this debt."
As Qiu Chuji finished speaking, a light blue robe slid silently to Li Gang's feet, as if carrying the softness of the first breeze in the morning.
On the robe, spiritual energy was lingering and a faint glow was flowing. It was actually a rare, top-grade defensive spiritual treasure, exuding an extraordinary aura.
"Take it, just consider it as compensation for the previous misunderstanding." Qiu Chuji turned around and waved his hand. There was a certain casualness in his words, but it was hard to hide the imperceptible tremor in his back.
No one could see that his old face was twitching slightly, full of pain.
This robe is extraordinary. It is carefully made of ice silk that is rarely seen in a thousand years. Its defensive power can easily dissolve even the full-strength attack of a strong man in the Spirit Transformation Realm. It was originally a precious item that Qiu Chuji prepared to give to his beloved disciple.
Unexpectedly, this brat got a good deal.
Li Gang had no intention of possessing the magical treasure, but he did not want to have too much entanglement with Qiu Chuji, so he bowed and said, "Thank you, Master Qiu, for your generous gift."
"Go, go." Qiu Chuji waved his hand impatiently, as if urging Li Gang to leave quickly.
He was afraid that if the brat stayed any longer, he would lose control and want to take back the precious spiritual treasure.
You know, he only has three of these top-grade spiritual treasures.
If I hadn't been wrong first,
He was reluctant to take it out anyway...
Li Gang silently put away the robe and bowed, "Disciple, I'll take my leave."
"Wait!" Qiu Chuji coughed lightly, his voice steady, "After you go back, do you know what to say and what not to say?"
"Disciple already has an idea in mind." Li Gang replied respectfully.
"Very good, go ahead." Qiu Chuji nodded slightly, signaling him to leave.
Upon hearing this, Li Gang turned around and strode away, his figure gradually disappearing from sight.
After Li Gang's back was completely lost in the distant twilight, Qiu Chuji slowly turned around, staring at the direction where Li Gang had left with a deep gaze. He seemed to have some feelings in his heart, as if he was thinking about something.
On the other side, Su Qing seemed a little anxious and paced lightly.
Su Qing here was already getting impatient.
"No, it's almost half an incense stick of time. I want to go and take a look!" Su Qing said, and was about to fly over.
"No need to go, your senior brother is back." Ke Yue did not return to the Xuanlong Ring, but looked calmly in one direction.
In just a few breaths, Li Gang fell from the sky and landed in front of Su Qing. A smile appeared on his unrealistically beautiful face, "Junior Sister, I'm back."
"Fourth Brother!" Su Qing hurried over, filled with joy. However, when her eyes fell on the noticeable bruise on Li Gang's neck, her smile froze, and her concern was evident in her words. "Fourth Brother, your neck..."
"It's okay." Li Gang smiled, his voice a little hoarse.
Su Qing stared at Li Gang's bruised neck again and again, examining it over and over again, anger flaring up in her heart. "You clearly helped a lot, how could he do this to you? I'm going to find Master Qiu Feng and seek justice for you!"
"Junior Sister!" Li Gang quickly reached out and grabbed Su Qing's sleeve, "Don't go. Besides, he hasn't found anything."
"He's right. If you go over there like this, it will only make him more likely to attract attention. Not only will you not be able to help him, you might even hurt him." Ke Yue looked at Li Gang again and again.
Tsk tsk, she really has a face that no man or woman can refuse.
She thought she had seen many good-looking men.
But if we just talk about appearance.
No one can compare to the demon in front of him. Not to mention men, even women would feel inferior in front of this demon.
"Have you seen enough?" Li Gang suddenly spoke coldly, with a biting chill in his voice.
(′ω`)...
Ke Yue was startled, her expression filled with astonishment, "You...you can actually see me?"
How is this possible!
However, Li Gang ignored Ke Yue's surprise. He turned his gaze to Su Qing, with a hint of worry in his tone: "Junior Sister, I'm worried that those big monsters in the Ten Thousand Monsters Alliance may have smelled our presence. With their style of doing things, as long as they find the right opportunity, they will take action!"
Su Qing's face suddenly became serious when she heard this. "So soon?"
Li Gang nodded.
The Ten Thousand Demons Alliance is a dominant force comparable to the Holy Land!
Even the Nine Yin Sect is slightly inferior to the Ten Thousand Demons Alliance!
So he was worried..
Just on the way back, he had sensed the lingering demonic energy more than once.
Moreover, this evil aura made him feel extremely palpitating!
He had only experienced this feeling from a few demon kings. If the Ten Thousand Demons Alliance really sent a demon king, he was worried...
"The Spirit of the Heavenly Monument."
"Master." The spirit of the Heavenly Monument appeared.
Su Qing said solemnly, "If a demon comparable to the Tribulation Realm approaches, can you sense it?"
The spirit of the Heavenly Monument thought for a moment, "If it's just an ordinary demon from the Tribulation Realm, as long as it appears within a mile of my master, I will immediately alert my master!"
Su Qing raised an eyebrow, "Just an ordinary demon in the Tribulation Realm?"
The spirit of the Heavenly Monument nodded.
As far as it knows, some demons possess innate magical powers that can conceal their breath.
If you encounter such a monster.
