Chapter 95 The exposed shadow is me, are you not satisfied?
Qi Qing's expression froze for a moment, and then he angrily said, "Yue Ji!"
He scolded, "You are really a traitor. Are you going to rebel? How dare you speak to your master like that?!"
The monks present were also confused by this sudden change. They looked at each other and began to whisper.
"Isn't this his master?"
"Something is wrong. This person has always been very close to his master. Could it be that the person in front of me is not Qi Qing?"
"But this aura is clearly that of Fellow Daoist Qi."
He Chong narrowed his eyes, stood with his arms folded, and looked at the young man in blue with an inquiring gaze.
The sword tip moved forward a little further, leaving a glaring bloody mark on the young man's soft neck skin.
"Shut up." Yue Ji said coldly, "Don't call me by my name with this face."
Qi Qing seemed to be certain that he would not dare to make a move, and actually took a step forward towards the sword, sneering: "In front of everyone, do you still want to kill your master..."
“Squeak——”
Before he finished speaking, the sound of the skin piercing was exceptionally clear.
Yue Ji twisted his wrist, and the sword pierced through without hesitation, twisting it fiercely.
The whole place was dead silent.
Everyone was stunned. Qi Qing's eyes widened, and he looked down at his neck in disbelief: "You..."
No blood.
The next moment, the head flew high into the air.
That handsome and gentle face melted in mid-air like a candle, revealing the blank face underneath.
Yue Ji put away his sword and turned around. His headless body staggered two steps and then fell down.
The sword energy that followed cut the body into several pieces, revealing the delicate structure inside.
“…It’s a puppet!”
"How is this possible! The breath just now clearly belonged to a living person!"
"No, the person who went in was a real person, how could the person who came out be a puppet?!"
Instantly, panic and fear spread rapidly among the crowd, but Yue Ji had already climbed up the stairs again, running out with a sword in hand, his murderous intent pointed directly at the hall: "Where on earth is my master!"
The blue-clothed disciples were no match for him at all, and their encirclement was broken in the blink of an eye.
The head of Xuantian Pavilion suddenly said: "How dare you be so arrogant, you brat!"
He waved his whisk and his sinister voice passed through everyone's ears: "If you dare to act rashly today, I will enforce justice on behalf of heaven and make you, the master-killer and traitor, die!"
"How ridiculous! Brother Yue killed a puppet, and you are asked to enforce justice." He Chong followed Yue Ji's footsteps and attacked together, shouting, "Do you think we are all blind?"
Huo Shi stopped him immediately, and on the other side, two terrifying spiritual pressures suddenly erupted.
The head of Xuantian Pavilion and the head of Yunxiao Sect attacked at the same time. The pressure from the Mahayana period was like a mountain collapsing, and every move went straight to Yue Ji's vital points.
——The tacit cooperation and fierce momentum clearly showed that it was premeditated.
"Are they crazy?"
The other monks in front of the hall were shocked beyond words.
No one expected that several big leaders would dare to join forces to launch an attack openly, and they were not even willing to do the superficial work. Aren't they really afraid of being criticized?
Just as the attack was about to fall on Yue Ji, the silver-white sword light tore through the sky and abruptly cut off the fatal offensive.
Qian Yuan Jian Zun stood behind Yue Ji, made a sword flower, and said calmly: "Go save your master."
Yue Ji said without even turning his head: "Thank you, Uncle Master!"
A fight broke out in front of the hall. Several of the cultivators were top-notch and had incredible destructive power. A few cultivators joined the battle out of righteous indignation, but many more were caught in a dilemma.
Leave? Qi Qing's life or death is unknown, and there are people who have received his kindness. It would be unkind to leave like this; stay? If these big Buddhas fight, any slight impact will result in serious injuries, not to mention the consequences of going against several major sects.
"Are you still dreaming?" He Chong broke through Huo Shi's blockade with a punch and shouted, "It has come to this, do you really think you can stay out of this!"
These words were like a bucket of cold water poured down on the monks who were watching, and they suddenly woke up!
What they saw and heard today had already doomed them to have no chance of escaping unscathed!
"Friend Yue, I'm here to help you!"
"Look at the sword, evil thief!"
The atmosphere in front of the hall suddenly became boiling. The monks rushed up one after another. All kinds of spiritual powers splashed and exploded, making the situation even more chaotic.
The formation of the blue-clothed disciples was broken into pieces, making it difficult to distinguish between friend and foe, which was actually beneficial to Yue Ji's actions.
The moment the sword energy split the barrier, exclamations came one after another from behind the young man in black.
…
A quarter of an hour ago.
At one point, Qi Qing thought he was really going to die.
At the critical moment, the dark evil energy rolled in like silk and dragged the dying young man into the sticky darkness.
“Ahem, ahem—”
A cold touch hit his face. Qi Qing turned his head and suddenly spat out a mouthful of black blood.
After spitting out the blood, he felt much better, as if a huge stone had been removed from his chest, and his breathing became slightly smoother.
The young man trembled and dry-heaved a few times. He vaguely saw tiny fragments mixed in the blood foam, but he didn't dare to think about what they were.
His fingers were shaking as he took out the pill from his arms and stuffed it into his mouth. His vision gradually became clear, but it was still covered with a layer of blood.
"Still alive?" a hoarse voice sounded.
Qi Qing squinted with difficulty and saw a blurry black shadow standing beside him. His body reacted before his consciousness and he suddenly curled back: "...It's you?!"
No, that's not right.
His voice was completely different from that of the man in the dark room, and the demonic energy surging around him was so strong that it was almost tangible.
Mo Ying smiled and said, "Do you know me?"
“…”
Qi Qing was so angry that he almost laughed.
He had just been arguing with the leader of the Yuqing Sect about the charge of colluding with the demons, but in the blink of an eye he was "rescued" by the demons.
What is this? Self-incrimination?
He closed his eyes and said, "The person I know is probably your accomplice."
The demon shadow then laughed: "Ah, it's the young master."
"Young Master?" Qi Qing looked around suspiciously: "What is this place?"
Could it be that the young master is nearby? Speaking of which, he was almost killed by the head of Yuqing Sect just now. How did Moying snatch the person from the hands of the God of Death?
“It’s safe here.”
The demon shadow noticed his vigilance and said in a calm tone, but with an unquestionable meaning: "The young master is not here, but you'd better clean yourself up before he comes - otherwise, if he gets angry, many people will die."
Qi Qing pressed his chest and frowned, "So... your young master is also a demon?"
Where did he provoke the demons?
Not getting an answer, the young man took a deep breath, suppressed the surging blood in his heart, and said calmly: "Although I don't know why your young master is targeting me, I have to get out, so you don't need to keep me here anymore."
Perhaps his tone was too calm, without the fear and disgust that ordinary cultivators would have when facing demon cultivators, Demon Shadow's attitude towards him also became a little more casual: "Behave yourself."
He pressed lightly and Qi Qing was unable to move.
"This place can temporarily stop the passage of time... Even if it's only temporary, it should be enough for you."
Mo Ying smiled meaningfully: "Do you think you can survive with your injuries?"
Qi Qing was stunned for a moment, then said coldly: "Then what's the point of forcing me to stay?"
"Just stay here quietly," Mo Ying said indifferently, "When the young master has sorted out the issues outside, he will come to see you. Only he can keep you alive."
When it came to his own life, Qi Qing kept his mouth shut. He looked calm on the surface, but in fact he was extremely anxious.
Trapped in this ghost place, he had no idea what was happening in the outside world. Not to mention the head of Yuqing Sect, Yue Ji alone was very likely to follow in his footsteps.
What's more, that person didn't have any barrage of reminders. No matter how powerful Qianyuan Sword Master was, he might not be able to take care of everything.
"Even if I can't get out, at least let me see what's going on outside?"
He suddenly had an idea and followed the Demon Shadow's train of thought: "If you can't see me, I will be anxious. If people are anxious, they will die. Your young master should not want me to die, right? Are you going to disobey his orders?"
These words really made Mo Ying silent for a moment. He seemed to be weighing the pros and cons. Qi Qing immediately covered his lips and coughed, with an indescribable weakness on his face.
The demon shadow relaxed: "...You can only look, don't move."
He snapped his fingers and a crack suddenly appeared in the air.
The scene in the hall unfolded like a live broadcast, clearly presented in front of Qi Qing's eyes.
The leader of Yuqing Sect had red eyes and his sleeves were stained with undried blood. At first glance, he looked more like a demon cultivator than a devil cultivator.
Opposite him, more than thirty cultivators from various sects followed Yue Ji into the hall. The two groups confronted each other for a few words, and the ground suddenly shook violently.
Several stone pillars broke out from the ground and the core of the formation was activated. Some cultivators realized something was wrong and turned around to escape, but found that the entrance to the hall had been blocked by the Yunxiao Sect.
Qi Qing opened his eyes wide and said in shock: "Are these three sects crazy?!"
The Yunxiao Sect pretended to invite everyone here, but in fact they had already set up a killing plan - not only did they want to get rid of himself and Yue Ji, they even planned to refine all the cultivators present today!
How arrogant this is!
At this time, Yue Ji, who was standing in the front, took action.
The young man in black was murderous. He raised his hand and several sword shadows appeared behind him. His power was as great as that of the Mahayana period leader of Yuqing Sect!
In addition, with Qianyuan Sword Master supporting them from behind, the situation had already tilted in favor of the cultivators before the battle even started.
——But the leader of Yuqing Sect is not alone.
He sneered repeatedly and clasped his hands together, and the figures of the other two masters also appeared in the hall.
The three of them joined forces to activate the formation. The blue-clothed disciples ignored casualties, formed a formation and defended it, trapping the monks in the hall.
Although Qi Qing could see what was happening in the hall, he could not hear any sound and could only guess their intentions from the shapes of their lips.
He was sweating as he watched, but fortunately Yue Ji himself was extremely powerful, and it was not difficult for him to punish the leader of Yuqing Sect across levels, and Qianyuan Sword Master could also restrain the other two.
As long as we drag on, it's only a matter of time before the formation is broken.
However, the leader of Yuqing Sect has become so paranoid that he is almost insane, and is determined to drag them to be buried with his elite disciples at all costs.
His hand gestures suddenly changed, and the spiritual energy around him surged wildly. The demon shadow who had been at ease just now suddenly shouted: "Oh no! This madman is going to self-destruct!"
Before Qi Qing could react, a demonic shadow had already flashed across the sky.
The next second, the space twisted, and the leader of the Yuqing Sect, who was about to self-destruct, stood in front of Qi Qing.
The two looked at each other in dead silence.
Qi Qing: “…”
He slowly turned his head and said through gritted teeth, "If you want me to die, just say it directly. There's no need to beat around the bush!"
The demon's movements froze, and he immediately stood in front of Qi Qing, looking a little embarrassed: "...my hand slipped."
The head of Yuqing Sect was stunned for only two seconds, then he immediately laughed out of anger, pointing at the demon shadow and said, "——And you still say you didn't collude with the demons?!"
Again?!
Qi Qing clenched his fists and stood up suddenly: "Are you blind or deaf? I've told you eight hundred times, I'm not familiar with you! I don't know you! We're not in cahoots!"
As he spoke, he felt evil in his heart, sneered and knocked on the forehead of the head of Yuqing Sect: "But thanks to you, it may not be the case now - if I really colluded with the demons, you would be the first to die!"
"OK!"
The head of Yuqing Sect slapped the space barrier with his palm, the sound was so loud that it made people's eardrums ring, and glared at him angrily: "Finally, I have waited for you, the spy, to reveal your true face!"
His confident look made Qi Qing feel powerless.
The pain in his chest had not subsided, and at this moment he was so angry that his temples were throbbing: "Don't you understand what I'm saying?"
Is it a KPI to set up his character of colluding with the demons?
“What nonsense!” The head of Yuqing Sect interrupted him harshly and pointed behind him: “How dare you say that the one behind you is not a demon?!”
Qi Qing turned his head excitedly: "So what if it is so? I didn't..."
The angry voice stopped abruptly.
His mind suddenly reacted.
Wait, the demon shadow is blocking in front of him, who is behind him?
A dangerous breath slowly sounded behind him.
Qi Qing turned his head stiffly, inch by inch, and was instantly horrified.
——The young man in black stood behind him without him noticing.
Yue Ji's black hair was scattered messily in front of his eyes, and murderous intent was surging violently around him.
Those golden eyes were frighteningly bright, with eerie red lines spreading from under the eyes to the neck. His gaze was fixed on Qi Qing. He had withstood the spiritual power shock in the hall, and half of his body was still intact.
The reason why I say half... is because the other half of his body can no longer be called a human.
The face, arms, and body were all black shadows, exactly the same as the demon shadow next to it, and the demonic energy was even purer and more intense.
Demon clan.
A complete demon.
"Master?" Yue Ji called him softly.
“…”
Qi Qing's expression completely broke.
