Chapter 328: Beheading
Xi Jili looked at the hand stretched out in front of him, and along the arm he saw Wei Qinglan.
His red clothes were stunningly beautiful, and the light was sparkling. Wherever he appeared, it was as if the brilliance of the sun and the moon were gathered in one person.
His pupils shrank slightly, and he paused, pursing his lips into a line. He stared at him for a moment and raised his eyebrows, "Brother Wei, what are you doing?"
Wei Qinglan looked at Xi Jili and said something shocking, "I have proposed to Master Qingxu Yu, and Master Yu agreed."
Xi Jili's expression suddenly changed. "What did you say?"
"I have proposed to Master Yu to marry Master Jiang, and Master Yu has agreed." Wei Qinglan said in a light tone, "Master Xi, do you need me to repeat it again?"
He looked like he was saying, "If you can't hear clearly, I can tell you how many times you repeat it."
Xi Jili's heart was filled with blood, his pupils were dizzy, and he took a step back and retorted, "This is impossible!"
He begged his master and proposed marriage to the sect master twice, but the sect master rejected him outright both times, saying that the road ahead was long and his senior sister was still young, so how could he agree to Wei Qinglan now?
Jiang Lisheng was also confused. He turned his head to look at Wei Qinglan, wondering what Senior Brother Wei was talking about? Could he lie without changing his expression? When did her master agree? Didn't she agree at all? Her master said she didn't agree.
When did he automatically block out his master's words of disagreement?
Wei Qinglan reached out and held Jiang Lisheng's hand, pulling her towards him, almost half pulling her into his arms. Facing Xi Jili's shocked and unbelievable eyes, he looked calm and said firmly, "If Junior Brother Xi doesn't believe me, you can ask Senior Uncle Yu. He has already accepted my betrothal gift and personally agreed to my marriage with Junior Sister Jiang."
Jiang Lisheng felt that the hand he was holding was tightening, so tight that it didn't hurt her, but it reminded her forcefully. She wanted to hiss, but quickly held it back, thinking to herself, Senior Brother Wei, are you really not afraid of being exposed by her master, or is he just thinking that since her master is not convenient to send a message, there is no way to expose him? That's why he dared to do that.
This man lied in all seriousness, and said it in front of her, which was totally inconsistent with the evaluation of him in the eyes of outsiders. Yes, who would have thought that Kunlun Wei Qinglan would lie without changing his expression. Especially in this matter, such a big thing, no one thought he would lie, right?
Xi Jili couldn't accept it and stared at Wei Qinglan. After a moment, he turned his head and stared at Jiang Lisheng, "Senior Sister Jiang, is what he said true?"
Jiang Lisheng's forehead throbbed with pain as she looked at Xi Jili's expression of disbelief. She had always known him to be likable and caring since he was a child, but she had never expected that after so many years, he would have feelings for her. Although she had clearly rejected him in Taiyi, it now seemed that he did not really listen to what she said and was still very persistent, otherwise he would not have such an expression.
Senior Brother Wei is such a perceptive person. Even in the territory of the Hehuan Sect, he was able to confront Feng Sichen with sharp words in a short period of time without any fear of offending him. Not to mention the anxious and worried look of his junior brother just now. How could he allow that?
She sighed, held Wei Qinglan's hand, nodded to Xi Jili affirmatively, and said seriously, "Yes, Junior Brother, what Senior Brother Wei said is true. My master... has agreed."
Senior Brother Wei wanted to help her avoid romantic relationships, but she had nothing to say. After all, she really had no feelings for her junior brother, and she didn't want to ruin his resolve, but she didn't know how to dissuade him. Now that she had already promised Senior Brother Wei, she naturally couldn't give him any hope.
Anyway, given Senior Brother Wei's stubbornness, even if her master disagrees, he will probably find a way to make him agree. Since he will agree sooner or later, there is nothing wrong with him saying this now.
Xi Jili's body swayed, his vision went dark, and he could hardly stand. "Senior Sister, you said that the most important thing is to devote yourself to the Tao. In the future, you will achieve the Tao. The sky is wide and the earth is vast. Love is as light as clouds and smoke, not worth mentioning."
Jiang Lisheng was relieved, "So you still remember."
"Of course I remember. I also asked you, you did this to me, what about Wei Qinglan? You said he also wanted to achieve the Great Dao. How can a mere love hinder the Great Dao? But what are you doing now? From the time you were in Taiyi to now, it has been less than a month. Are you and Wei Qinglan together? Then what you said before, that love would delay the Great Dao, does it not count? Can you promise that you will never be involved in love? If I can't, can others not do it too?"
Jiang Lisheng said quickly: "Oh, that's not right. I did say all the words before that. Think about the last sentence carefully. I didn't say it. I remember saying it, but I can't guarantee it."
Xi Jili's eyes instantly turned red, "So, even though you didn't admit it at that time, you already had feelings for Wei Qinglan."
Wei Qinglan tilted her head to look at Jiang Lisheng.
Everyone was stunned by this scene and looked at Jiang Lisheng.
For a moment, this place was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.
Jiang Lisheng was embarrassed and put her hand on her forehead. She felt countless eyes falling on her. Her heart was in turmoil and she felt ashamed, but soon she thought that Senior Brother Wei could lie without changing his expression, so there was nothing for her to be ashamed of.
So, she put down her hand and nodded confidently, "Yes, yes, yes, I had evil intentions towards Senior Brother Wei the day my master sent me to Kunlun and I saw him for the first time."
Xi Jili's eyes were bloodshot. "What about me?"
Jiang Lisheng said helplessly, "I've told you a long time ago that you are my junior brother, so be good and don't mess with me. We are the most reliable relationship in the world, senior sister and junior brother."
Xi Jili choked and stared at her intently. After a moment, he turned and left.
He left quickly and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
Chu Bitumen called out "Ji Li" and worriedly instructed a male disciple beside him, "Go after him and make sure he doesn't do anything stupid."
The male disciple glanced at Jiang Lisheng and Wei Qinglan, responded, and chased after them.
This happened right after they met. For a moment, everyone was very quiet. It seemed that they didn't know what to say for a moment, and everyone was digesting the situation on their own.
It was Lou Qianyi who broke the silence first. She looked at Jiang Lisheng and Wei Qinglan and said, "Senior Sister Jiang, I've known for a long time that you have impure thoughts about Senior Brother Wei from Kunlun. Otherwise, why would you not even let me touch the warm jade bed he lent you? You're so protective of it, saying that neither the bed nor the man can be touched by anyone."
Jiang Lisheng: "..."
Wei Qinglan chuckled, then tilted her head to look at Jiang Lisheng, leaned close to her ear and asked in a voice that everyone could hear: "Oh? Is that so? I really didn't know about this, and I have to thank this junior sister for telling me."
Jiang Lisheng blushed and reached out to push him away, "No, I didn't say that, don't talk nonsense."
