Chapter 111: No sleeping together!
Seeing his senior brother slashing the pursuing evil spirit with a sword, Qi Qing rushed to him with a burning desire and said excitedly: "Hurry up, run!"
"You take your nephew and retreat first, I'll cover the rear!" Without saying a word, the elder brother pushed Qi Qing behind him with a palm and said, "Go find Elder Qianyuan!"
Qi Qing did not dare to hesitate. He lifted the person on his shoulder and flew in the designated direction. Soon he saw the monks' camp from a distance.
There is help!
Just as the young man began to feel hopeful, he suddenly turned his head away.
“Whoosh!”
A feathered arrow flew past his cheek.
"Who is trespassing into the alliance's important territory!" The blue-clothed disciples on the periphery drew their bows and arrows and shouted at him.
Qi Qing quickly showed the token of the Tiandu Sect and said, "Tiandu Sect, Qi Qing!"
"Qi Qing?"
The disciple's expression suddenly changed, and he pulled the bowstring to its full length again: "Traitor, you dare to come back? What is your intention!"
Only when he got closer could Qi Qing see clearly what he was wearing.
——It’s true that enemies meet in a narrow road. It turns out that he is from Yunxiao Sect.
"Who said I'm a traitor?" Qi Qing simply flew in front of him, "I want to see the people from Tiandu Sect, now!"
The blue-robed disciple stuck his neck out to block the way: "You didn't come back earlier or later, and suddenly showed up when the war was about to start. Who knows if you are a spy from the demon clan?"
Qi Qing's face darkened: "If you stop me again, my disciple will be injured. Can you afford it?"
The blue-clothed disciple then noticed the person on his shoulder. When he saw his face clearly, he immediately screamed, "Ah! It's that demon!"
He was so scared that he took several steps back. Qi Qing didn't bother to talk nonsense with him and was about to jump over the defense line. Unexpectedly, the blue-clothed disciple's previous shouts attracted all the Yunxiao Sect disciples patrolling nearby.
When they found Qi Qing, everyone was like they were facing a formidable enemy: "Stop him!"
"The traitor dared to bring the demons in. I think he must be a bait..."
Before the last word "bait" was finished, Qi Qing could no longer endure it, and used his spiritual power to directly shake away the person who was blocking his way: "Get lost."
He walked quickly into the camp. Perhaps the large crowd gave the disciples an illusion. Seeing Qi Qing still carrying the wounded, they did not retreat but instead surrounded him and moved forward, becoming more and more aggressive: "Sure enough, he is colluding with the demons! How dare he hurt people in public!"
A large number of ants can kill an elephant. Qi Qing was annoyed by being harassed by this group of "ants". He had never felt so restrained when fighting the Demon Lord just now.
He was about to attack again when a faint voice suddenly came from the air.
"stop."
Hearing this voice, Qi Qing's heart first relaxed, then tightened, and he looked up nervously.
Qian Yuan Sword Master was seen standing in the air in white clothes as white as snow, his calm eyes swept over the two of them.
Suddenly raised his hand.
A silver-white sword light flashed, and Qi Qing instinctively dodged to the side, his pupils shrinking slightly.
He was about to explain, but out of the corner of his eye he saw a wisp of black air behind him dissipate.
Sword Master landed gracefully, his eyes briefly resting on the unconscious Yue Ji, without asking any more questions, he turned around and said, "Follow me."
With a great Tribulation Crossing Stage expert personally leading the way, those green-clothed disciples, although unwilling, could only watch Qi Qing being brought into the camp.
As soon as he entered, Qian Yuan Sword Master immediately called for a doctor to treat Yue Ji's injuries, and sent someone to invite the head of the sect immediately.
"What happened just now?"
When Qianyuan Sword Master asked the question, Qi Qing was staring at the doctor taking the pulse. Upon hearing the words, he briefly recounted what had happened.
The medical practitioner was stunned: "So it was you who created such a shocking scene? Did the demons suffer heavy losses?"
"Is that so?" Seeing that he still had the leisure to listen to this, Qi Qing hurriedly asked, "How is my disciple's injury?"
The doctor shook his head: "No..."
"No cure?"
The doctor waved his hands quickly and said, "Nine..."
"A narrow escape from death?" Qi Qing's voice changed.
"No! I mean right there..."
The young man took a deep breath and said, "Is he going to die right now?"
“…Master.”
A weak call came from the sickbed.
Yue Ji woke up at this moment and looked at him aggrievedly: "Why are you so eager for me to be in trouble?"
Qi Qing simply ignored his expression and stared at the doctor nervously: "What's going on?"
The doctor was so frightened by him that he said in one breath: "No, no, it's nothing serious! I'm 90% sure I can cure it on the spot!"
"Really?" Qi Qing pointed at Yue Ji's pale face suspiciously: "He looks like he's fine?"
The doctor wiped his sweat and said, "It's strange, although your disciple's pulse is weak, his injuries are much lighter than expected. Maybe the elixir has taken effect and is healing on its own."
"I didn't even have time to feed the pills...wait!"
Qi Qing remembered something and ripped open Yue Ji's shirt: "There is clearly a bloody hole in his chest!"
Before he finished speaking, the skin under his hand was flat and smooth, without even a trace of scar.
"?"
Qi Qing was stunned for a moment, and Yue Ji took the opportunity to hold his hand and reluctantly sat up: "No need for treatment, I can get better on my own."
Qi Qing snorted coldly, but still insisted on asking the doctor to prescribe medicine, and specifically asked for a few more purely bitter herbs.
When the doctor finished explaining the precautions and was about to leave, the old head of the sect finally arrived.
"Disciple!"
He rushed into the room, the silver threads on his whisk still sticking out in a mess. When he saw Yue Ji on the bed, his eyes widened immediately: "Why did you bring this... back as well?"
At the same time, the leaders of several major sects who had heard the complaints of the green-clothed disciples also rushed over. The house, which was not spacious to begin with, was immediately crowded with people. Some came to question, some came to watch the fun, and some came simply to gather information. The air became stuffy.
"Qi Qing!" The elder of Yuqing Sect squeezed to the front and shouted sternly: "How dare you bring this devil back to the camp!"
The old head of the sect was immediately displeased, and raised his white eyebrows: "So what if he brings you back? After all, he was once a disciple of my Tiandu Sect!"
"This boy killed our sect leader and also deceived the monks to defect to the Soul Abyss." The elder of Yuqing Sect sneered, "If even such a criminal can enter the camp safely, wouldn't our alliance become a huge joke?"
"What a joke, make way!" He Chong arrived a step too late and couldn't squeeze into the crowd, so he simply shouted from the back row: "Brother Qi, did the demons embarrass you?"
The numerous questions made Qi Qing's temples throb, and he shouted, "Can you come one by one?"
The next moment, the world was quiet.
Everyone, including the old head of the sect, turned around in astonishment. Qian Yuan Jian Zun, who was standing at the side, slowly put away his hand gestures and said calmly, "Let's listen to Junior Brother Qi first."
——He actually silenced everyone by himself!
Qi Qing was also quite surprised. After receiving a look from Sword Master, he was afraid that he would also be silenced, so he immediately repeated what had happened before.
When they heard that the previous noise was caused by the super typhoon he created, many people's eyes changed. Then when they heard that Yue Ji had severely injured the Demon Lord, some people even gasped.
"So," the old head of the sect said seriously, "are these injuries caused by fighting the Demon Lord?"
Qi Qing nodded solemnly: "I beg the master to allow my master and I to rest for a few days, and then discuss what to do next, is that okay?"
Right now, there is really no better place to go except the Tiandu Sect. Even if it is just a short respite, it is better than being hunted by both sides.
The people from the three sects were obviously unwilling, but the old leader had his own standards in mind.
"No need to say more. Qi Qing has made great contributions in killing demons, and he is also a disciple of our sect, so he should naturally be protected by Tiandu Sect." He flicked his whisk, looked around at everyone, and said, "As for your doubts and concerns, I will give you an explanation in three days."
Qianyuan Sword Master stood silently behind the old head of the sect, his sword sharp and silently expressing his attitude.
Seeing that everyone in the Tiandu Sect was protecting Qi Qing, the cultivators from various sects had no choice but to give in reluctantly, no matter how worried they were about Yue Ji.
With a powerful enemy at hand, it would be a loss if the demons were to reap the benefits of internal strife.
After the crowd dispersed, the house finally returned to peace.
Qi Qing was worried about his senior brother who was left behind, so he asked the disciple who was boiling medicine at the door and learned that the brother had returned safely and was reporting to the head of the sect.
Later, the senior brother pushed the door open.
"Tell me about it."
He pulled out a chair and sat down, his sharp eyes fell on Yue Ji's face, raised his chin, and said seriously: "Who gave you the courage to snatch your master away to Soul Abyss?"
Yue Ji stole a glance at Qi Qing's face, only to see that his master was sitting next to his uncle with a cold face, with no intention of helping him out. He could only lower his eyes and said, "Master promised to accompany me."
"Accompany him to the Soul Abyss?" The senior brother glared at him and said, "He is your master, not your follower. How can he allow you to order him around?"
Yue Ji looked at Qi Qing quietly again, but still got no response. He pursed his lips and said, "How dare I order Master around? It's just because..."
"Why?" the senior brother asked.
Qi Qing thought to himself that it was not good. Yue Ji suddenly looked up and said in a clear voice: "Because Master promised to become my Taoist partner."
“Bang!”
Outside the door came the sound of a medicine disciple's water ladle falling to the ground.
"What!"
The senior brother stood up suddenly, and the chair made a harsh sound on the ground.
He stared at the two of them in disbelief for a long time, and only managed to utter one word: "... Ridiculous!"
He slapped the table and said to Yue Ji: "Do you know what you are talking about! - He is your master!"
Yue Ji felt aggrieved by his harsh words and shrank his neck.
Qi Qing gently pressed down his brother's shaking hand, cleared his throat awkwardly, and said, "Brother, that...what he said...is true."
After getting confirmation from another party involved, the senior brother was struck by lightning.
He turned to glare at Qi Qing, pointed at Yue Ji and said, "That's your disciple!"
Seeing his junior brother's eyes wandering away, the elder brother said with great sorrow: "Before leaving the sect, we were still kind to each other, but after going to the Soul Abyss, how did the good master and disciple become a couple?! Did you change in the Soul Abyss? Did the Demon Lord force you??... No! I don't agree!"
He paced back and forth in the room anxiously, muttering words like "absurd" and "damn demons" over and over. His eyes were like lightning, and he glanced at the two of them sternly from time to time, as if he wished he could straighten them up himself.
Qi Qing coughed lightly and said, "The situation is a bit complicated. Anyway, it didn't happen in the Soul Abyss. Don't worry about it for now. It's more important to deal with the demons."
"You're fine?" The elder brother was so angry that he didn't fight back. He looked between the two of them and suddenly said, "From tonight on, the younger brother will live next door and the nephew will live in this room. You are not allowed to sleep together!"
“——It’s settled!”
