Chapter 1238. Which style of ridicule do you like?

"What's wrong?"

"I remember that the egret was waiting for the nightingale in the inn, and they did meet and fight each other. But why did the nightingale appear alone at the bottom of the hill? Is the nightingale stronger than the egret?"

Hua Shiqing thought about it carefully.

"So far, I have never heard of a nightingale being stronger than an egret. They have been fighting each other for years, but no one is sure who is stronger. If one is really stronger than the other, the stronger one will definitely publicize it.

Because this not only suppresses the other party, but also suppresses the entire force of the other party, which has a great impact on the force. Because these killers rely on taking orders to make money to cultivate. "

"Then why was Nightingale able to get rid of White Egret in such a short time? And not only did he get rid of him, he also killed a group of killers from Dongwang Palace, which means they separated earlier." Ye Linglong asked.

"Could it be that they have stopped at that point?"

"In order to lure out Nightingale, Bai Lu traveled thousands of miles to the East China Sea to find you, killed the assassin of Xichuanlou, and teamed up with others to kill the giant snake. He spent so much effort, and you just stopped there?"

Hua Shiqing scratched her head.

"Junior Sister, I don't understand what you said. It seems that the fight between the two of them ended too quickly."

"So over the years, have they won and lost in their matches, or has it always been a draw?"

"It seems that the winner has not been decided yet."

"should?"

"No one saw the whole process of their fight. Dongwang Palace and Xichuanlou are both killer organizations, and they would not participate in any competitions to expose their strength, so there was no fair and open opportunity for them to fight. No one knows, and we all heard about it."

"Is it possible..." Ye Linglong stretched out the last syllable: "They are not opponents?"

Hua Shiqing slapped Ye Linglong's injured hand.

"How is this possible?"

"Why not?"

"They have been fighting for hundreds of years, and the relationship between Dongwang Palace and Xichuan Tower has been as fierce as fire and water for thousands of years. These two families dream of the death of the other party, so that the other side can dominate the entire East China Sea.

And you also saw how many people Bai Lu and Ye Ying really killed on each other? Bai Lu killed seven assassins from Xichuanlou in the snake cave, and Ye Ying just killed at least seven or eight assassins from Dongwang Palace at the foot of the hill.

Those are lives lost and blood feuds! Moreover, they often block each other's missions and snatch each other's orders. How can they not be rivals? They also wish for the other to die, right? "

Hua Shiqing said a lot, and then Ye Linglong asked again: "Why can't the egret keep the nightingale even for a quarter of an hour?"

Hua Shiqing was about to say something, but when she opened her mouth, it seemed that she really couldn't think of any particularly good explanation.

"I don't know. Maybe there was an accident, but it's definitely not the problem you said. Who is kidding about human life?"

Ye Linglong smiled.

"A killer makes a living by killing people, doesn't he? If you take this path, when you kill people at random, don't you have to accept being killed at any time?"

Hua Shiqing sighed.

"Junior sister, I can't say anything better than you."

"So do you believe me?"

"Yes."

"Then trust my intuition as well."

Hua Shiqing thought about it seriously.

"Okay, I believe it."

Seeing this, Ye Linglong couldn't help but chuckle.

"Fourth Senior Sister, you are so cute when you act silly."

…

"You and Fifth Senior Sister are two different types of stupidity. She is too lazy to even think. She believes whatever I say. You think about it first, but no matter what the result of your thinking is, you still have to believe me in the end."

Hua Shiqing tapped Ye Linglong on the forehead.

"I am your senior sister, you are not allowed to laugh at me like that."

"Oh, what style of ridicule do you prefer?"

"Little! Teacher! Sister!"

Just as Hua Shiqing finished shouting, a puzzled voice came from not far away: "Isn't this our little sister? How come she belongs to someone else in the blink of an eye? Is she going to join Penglai Island?"

Ye Linglong and Hua Shiqing turned around and saw that Shen Lixian and Mu Xiaoran had caught up with them, and the questioning words came from Mu Xiaoran.

"Yes, I am going to Penglai to be the chief disciple. After all, with my fighting ability, they may not be able to win even if they attack together." Ye Linglong said.

"Junior sister, we in Penglai don't use martial arts competition to select the chief disciple."

"Compared to what?"

"To make elixir."

"Oh, then you called me Junior Sister and that was pretty accurate."

…

As they were talking, Shen Lixian and Mu Xiaoran had already flown to the top of the Nine-Tailed Fox. As soon as they landed, they saw the girl in green serving their little sister all kinds of good medicines.

Fortunately, the injuries on the little junior sister's body didn't seem to be serious, so she probably didn't encounter any serious trouble.

But it seems that this girl in green has been conquered by the charm of the junior sister again. Why does she have to fool a group of people wherever she goes?

The four of them had just gathered together and hadn't said a word when they saw the Qiyang City Lord's Mansion behind them, and the Nine-Tailed Fox was ready to land.

At this moment, it was not yet daybreak, but the moon had already set quite a bit, and the night was almost over.

Although the time to arrive at the City Lord's Mansion was so tight, they were received by the guards of the City Lord's Mansion as soon as they landed. It seemed that they had been waiting here for a long time.

The four of them were sent to the hall to wait, and soon the neatly dressed city lord came out from the inner hall. As soon as he came out, he didn't even have time to put on the demeanor of a city lord, and quickly walked up to Hua Shiqing with a very respectful attitude.

"Master Mantianhua, I finally saw you. I was worried all night, afraid that Xichuanlou would succeed in intercepting and hurt you. Are you okay?"

Although his attitude was respectful, Ye Linglong always felt that something was not right.

Since he was so worried that Fourth Senior Sister wouldn't be able to make it, why didn't he send anyone to pick her up from the beginning to the end?

They had already arrived in Qiyang City, but the first people they met were the guards from Xichuan Tower instead of the City Lord's Mansion.

"I'm fine."

"I'm glad you're here. We've been waiting for you for a long time. We've prepared all the materials for you. Please come in quickly."

"good."

Hua Shiqing simply responded with a few words and walked in.

Not to mention, her silly senior sister acts quite well as a cold and aloof alchemy master in front of outsiders.

Soon, they were led inside by the city lord himself, through the corridor to the inner courtyard, and then they turned several corners and went deeper and deeper. In addition, it was very dark at this time, and the surroundings were very quiet, which made people feel a little uncomfortable.

Ye Linglong tugged at Hua Shiqing's sleeve.

"Sister, why would they rather watch you being hunted down by Xichuanlou outside than send someone to pick you up?"

"Because all the guards of the City Lord's Mansion have gone to guard the back mountain."

"Back mountain?"

"That's where I'm going to make the elixir."
