After that person finished asking, the rest of the people looked at her in silence.
Ye Qiao also fell silent for a moment. Good question, where is the Demon King?
It must be gone.
Could she possibly take out the Demon King's inner elixir and pretend to be surprised and tell them, "I turned the Demon King into an inner elixir. Do you want to see it?"
If we really do this, it will probably be no different from a ghost story.
She was still hesitating whether to give her inner elixir to KFC. If the inner elixir of the Tribulation Period was exposed, it would cause a bloody storm. Ye Qiao thought for a moment and answered cautiously, "I don't know. When I came here, the monsters had all dispersed. Maybe something unexpected happened?"
The excuse she made up was a little too careless, and Xie Chuxue wanted to make amends but didn't know how to do it.
He flicked his finger to flick away the whimpering Life-Resting Pen beside him, cleared his throat slightly, and smiled, "Maybe there is an expert who can help us, right? It's not like we don't have experts in the world of cultivation."
Ye Qiao felt that his reason was even less sincere than her own.
Sure enough, the way other people looked at them was full of weirdness.
Okay, okay, just pretend.
"Didn't you say before that you wanted to go find the Demon King?" They asked again casually.
It was hard to tell how old these people were just by looking at their faces, but they were old enough to be her grandfather. Ye Qiao continued to answer honestly, "Later, I found that I couldn't beat them, so I left."
"If you didn't deal with the Demon King, why did these monsters suddenly disperse halfway?"
The huge tide of monsters suddenly retreated, causing them to mistakenly think it was a conspiracy. They all tensed up and kept their minds focused on observing the surroundings. However, until Ye Qiao arrived late, they did not see any sign of a monster returning.
This is so wrong.
Without the order of the Demon King, how could the monsters dare to retreat?
Ye Qiao was even more confused, and looked very bewildered, "If they retreat, it doesn't necessarily mean it has anything to do with the Demon King, right?"
"..."Xie Chuxue felt that her acting skills were much better than before.
"Really?" They glanced at her meaningfully again. A female senior saw that the atmosphere was not right and quickly changed the subject. She said with a cautious tone, "No matter what the reason is, since the monster tide has receded, let's leave here first."
Even the seniors who were curious about what she had been through did not ask any more questions. After all, Ye Qiao would never admit it and they could not force her to admit it. It was just a divine transformation. Not to mention how low the probability of success was, even if she could succeed, wouldn't she have to pay some price?
As a result, the little kid was alive and kicking as if nothing had happened.
It doesn't look like there was any fierce battle.
If Ye Qiao could hear what they were thinking, she would show them how to close her eyes peacefully on the spot. She had fed all her blood to An Shu, that greedy jerk, and her steps were floating after she left the area.
The amount of blood loss was no less than a full body blood transfusion, and even the top-grade blood-recovering pills were almost out of stock.
Coupled with the irreversible damage to her domain, she felt completely depressed.
Others didn't notice it, but Xie Chuxue, who had been with Ye Qiao for a long time, sensed something strange. This kid has never known what humility is. If she really did something, it would be fine if she didn't take credit for it, but it was wrong for her to keep hiding it.
Xie Chuxue thought about it, and he could only think of the Demon King's inner elixir. If the inner elixir of the Tribulation Period fell into the hands of a little ghost who had just transformed into a god not long ago, and the news got out, she would become the target of public criticism.
Ye Qiao is already conspicuous enough.
The best way for her to deal with the situation is to hide the Demon King that she had defeated and the inner elixir in her hand.
“Let’s go, let’s go to the border between the demon clan and the city.” Xie Chuxue clapped her hands, “Mingxuan and the others should be there too, let’s go meet them first.”
His intention of covering up was very clear, he didn't want those monks to dig deeper into the matter.
The topic of what happened to the Demon King and why the demon clan suddenly retreated was just lightly ignored.
Even if there were powerful people who were itching to suspect that Ye Qiao was covering up something, they would have to keep silent for the sake of Xie Chuxue.
Some cultivators didn't know Qin Fanfan, but they were familiar with Xie Chuxue. Like these disciples, this person became famous at a young age and had a strange temper. In comparison, the disciple named Ye Qiao was actually a rare and polite person.
Damn, it turns out that quality is revealed through comparison.
The group quickly rushed to the center of the demon clan. Ye Qiao was temporarily locked up in the area that was riddled with holes. Like everyone else, she chose to fly on a sword.
On the way, she inexplicably had an illusion that the monsters on the road were avoiding them intentionally or unintentionally.
Avoid?
The monsters would indeed avoid some monks who were stronger than them after sensing danger, but none of them released any murderous aura or pressure, so why would they avoid them for no reason?
Ye Qiao stared at a bird or beast she encountered on the way. When the other party met her gaze, the monster with flapping wings seemed to be petrified suddenly halfway and fell down in a straight line.
She actually saw a look of horror in the eyes of a bird.
One or two would be fine, but any bird monsters that passed by didn't dare to even look at her, as if they would be torn to pieces if Ye Qiao looked at them. Every monster that spotted her didn't just attack in secret, some even left an afterimage.
It's so weird.
The monster that could sneak attack the monks and tear them to pieces suddenly changed its face. Ye Qiao's mouth twitched and he said to himself, "I shouldn't be that scary, right?"
Most of the monsters have little intelligence and only react instinctively.
