Chapter 54
Qi Qingqi cried out in surprise: "Wait, what's going on?!" She pointed to the dome hall: "The one inside... isn't that Shen Qingqiu? Why is there another one?"
Luo Binghe seemed to be in a good mood and said, "Why not ask the former Anding Peak Master?"
Shen Qingqiu: ...Damn it, he knew that the credit must have been due to the spineless and shameless Shang Qinghua!
Shang Qinghua laughed, and when Mobei Junheng glanced at him, he immediately stood up, his qi sank into his dantian, his head held high and his chest puffed out, and he said in a loud voice: “Senior Brother Shen happened to visit a place a few years ago and got a treasure called Sun and Moon Dew Huazhi. This ganoderma has a spiritual nature and can reshape the body. It was with it that Senior Brother Shen’s soul left the golden cicada and escaped from the shell in Huayue City! So, the one inside is him, but only an empty shell is left, and the one outside is also him! Both of them are him!”
The summary is concise, clear and concise.
Several pairs of eyes looked at Shen Qingqiu.
Liu Qingge immediately pointed the tip of the Chengluan Sword towards him, with even more murderous intent than when he directed it at Luo Binghe just now.
After the initial shock, Yue Qingyuan's expression turned into astonishment. He whispered, "If that's the case, why haven't you had any news from me in the past five years, and why have you cut off contact with the Twelve Peaks? Could it be that in your heart, none of your fellow disciples are worthy of your trust?"
Shen Qingqiu felt guilty: "Brother, listen to me..."
Qi Qingqiu said angrily: "Shen Qingqiu, you... do you know how badly you hurt your brothers? How your disciples cried at that time?! You cried all day long and the Qingjing Peak was filled with smog and mourning for a whole year, making people not want to go up there! The position of Peak Master is also vacant, and you are lying outside enjoying yourself!"
What Shen Qingqiu feared most was that the hot-tempered Qi Qingqi would point at his nose and scold him, so he hurriedly said, "I really didn't mean it. I was buried in the ground for five whole years and I just woke up a few days ago. He did it!"
Shang Qinghua saw that the criticism was directed at him again, and felt even more wronged: "Why are you blaming me again? Didn't you say that I should cook it as soon as possible?"
Liu Qingge pressed his temples: "Shut up!"
Shang Qinghua shut up.
The noise and quarrel among these people would have been hilarious if viewed in a different setting, but because the timing was wrong, Shen Qingqiu couldn't laugh at all.
On the dome peak, flames were everywhere, scorched stones and earth, and after two days of siege and attack, it was no longer as majestic as usual. Inside and outside the hall, there were bloodstained disciples being supported by others, and the younger generation was looking around in panic. They were exhausted and had already reached the end of their strength.
On the other side, the semi-encircled black-armored demon warriors and cavalry were still as shiny and sharp as freshly sharpened swords, staring intently.
Shen Qingqiu retracted his gaze and said, "Luo Binghe, you said that you came to Cangqiong Mountain Sect to capture me."
Luo Binghe said: "Not bad."
Shen Qingqiu said: "You caught it."
The goal has been achieved, it's time to withdraw the troops.
Luo Binghe looked at him: "Not running away anymore?"
"..." Shen Qingqiu nodded slowly: "I won't run away."
Luo Binghe's mouth twitched, revealing a weak smile. This smile finally lost the sarcasm that had been on his face just now.
He whispered, “I’ve thought so many times.”
Liu Qingge suddenly asked: "What do you mean?"
He looked at Shen Qingqiu, as if he wanted to stab him in the head with a sword: "Are you trying to trade yourself for him?"
Yue Qingyuan reached out his hand and touched Xuan Su, saying solemnly: "It is not yet the turn of the demons to get involved in the people of Cangqiong Mountain."
Mu Qingfang held him down and shook his head, saying, "Brother, you forced your way out of seclusion during your retreat and faced a strong enemy. You already suffered a great loss. Now you are still trying to draw your sword. I'm afraid it's really bad for your cultivation..."
A wave of dark energy surged up on Yue Qingyuan's face, but he forced it down and said with a reluctant voice, "I have to do it even if it's not possible. My junior brother has already died once, and we failed to protect him then. Do you want me to watch him die again now?"
Shen Qingqiu's heart was filled with emotion after hearing these words. He turned to Yue Qingyuan and said, "Brother, look at all these disciples. How many of them are injured? It's been two days. Should we let them go? The ruined Qiongding Peak is in ruins. Should we rest and recuperate?"
If Shen Qingqiu were to say who he admired and respected the most, the first one would be Yue Qingyuan. Not only because he had devoted himself to the entire sect, but also because of his sincere love for him. He really couldn't bear to let the Cangqiong Mountain Sect and this headmaster worry about him and clean up his mess.
Shen Qingqiu said: "I am responsible for the disciples I taught and the troubles I caused. As the head of the sect, the safety and lives of all the disciples in the twelve peaks depend on you. You must know how to make the choice."
The hall was dead silent and the atmosphere was heavy.
Yue Qingyuan's face was filled with helplessness, but as the head of a mountain, it was self-evident what he should do in such an unfavorable situation. The heads of the other peaks had the same considerations. However, Ning Yingying ran out.
She grabbed Shen Qingqiu's arm and shouted, "I don't agree!"
Shen Qingqiu said: "Mingfan, take care of your junior sister."
Ning Yingying sobbed, "I don't want anyone to take care of me! Whether it was the time of the demon witch or the time when Jinlan City and Huanhua Palace were in conflict, it was always you who stood up. Why do you have to stand up again this time? Why does it always have to be you who suffers?"
Shen Qingqiu was stunned.
Yes, why is it always him who suffers the consequences?
It would take him a while to figure out the problem. He put on a calm face and said, "You are so grown up and still crying. What a shame. Your teacher won't die." He added in his mind, probably.
Ming Fan's face was filled with anger: "Master, for the sake of Cangqiong Mountain Sect, you have handed yourself over to this devil. Isn't it a fate worse than death? I have only heard of sacrificing one's life to accompany a gentleman, but how can you sacrifice yourself to feed a devil?"
How do you talk?!
Mingfan, you naughty kid, can you speak human language? !
After dragging his feet for so long, Luo Binghe must have lost his patience. He grabbed Shen Qingqiu's hand, put his other hand on the scabbard of the Heart Demon Sword and said, "Take Master's Immortal Body with you."
Another peak master said angrily, "Don't go too far. It's not enough to take the person away. What do you want the corpse for?"
Luo Binghe did not answer, but raised his hand to Mo Beijun and gave him an order. Shen Qingqiu saw that he had finally compromised, and if he said something wrong, it seemed that he would start another dispute. He wanted to stop it. He wanted to pull his arm, but felt awkward, so he pulled his sleeve instead. After a while, he said with a stiff upper lip: "I will go with you, why do you have to go to this extent?"
When Shen Qingqiu said this, he felt very ashamed.
He was a man, but he had to humbly ask another man whether to follow him or not in front of so many people. Especially since this man was once his apprentice, it was even more aggrieved and shameful.
However, showing weakness has a certain effect on any man. Luo Binghe's face was obviously brighter, not only did he loosen his grip on him, but his tone also softened.
Although his tone was gentle, his words were still as tough as ever: "After all, this is Master's original body, and it involves a lot of things. If Master were to escape from the golden cicada shell again, I really wouldn't know what to do."
As soon as he turned his head, his voice turned cold: "Take it away."
Before Mobei Jun could move, Qi Qingqi turned his head to listen to Liu Mingyan's whispers as she quietly entered the palace. He was surprised at first, and then shouted, "Don't argue!"
She raised her head and said, "Luo Binghe, no one needs to fight for it now. Even if we are willing to let you take it away, don't even think about getting what you want."
Shen Qingqiu knew that she had a hot temper and might do something extreme to anger Luo Binghe. Just when he was having a headache, she gestured for Liu Mingyan to come out: "Mingyan, go ahead and talk."
Liu Mingyan said: "Uncle Shen's immortal body has disappeared."
After she finished speaking, she stepped aside. Several disciples were carried out from the back hall. These were the people who stayed behind to guard the cremation platform and the corpse. But now they were all unconscious, with a strange dark blue color from their faces to their fingertips.
The hall was filled with a chorus of cries. Yue Qingyuan's expression changed immediately, and Luo Binghe also raised his eyebrows.
Qi Qinglai said frankly: "Luo Binghe, you don't have to look at me. I did think about hiding it, but unfortunately, when I asked Mingyan to move it to the back hall just now, the sitting platform was empty. The body that we had carefully preserved on it has disappeared."
She was so happy that she would rather her body disappear than let Luo Binghe take it away. Mu Qingfang leaned over to check and said, "He is unconscious, but his life is safe. He has been poisoned."
Yue Qingyuan asked: "What kind of poison?"
Mu Qingfang said: "I can't tell right now. There are no wounds on his body. Let me take some blood to test."
Qi Qingqi said, "If it was a poison from the human world, Junior Brother Mu would be able to tell at a glance. Since he couldn't tell, I would like to ask, was it you who did it?"
Luo Binghe said calmly: "I don't like using poison."
This is indeed true. Moreover, in this situation, Luo Binghe has no need to lie. Since he said it was not his fault, then it was not his fault. That is to say, an unknown person took advantage of the dispute between the two parties in front of the temple, sneaked up the mountain without anyone noticing, and stole Shen Qingqiu's body through several walls under the eyes of both parties. It is not surprising.
Shen Qingqiu was puzzled: Why steal his body? Why is he so popular when he is dead?
Or are there really so many perverts in this world!
Luo Binghe realized that it was pointless to stay here and talk any more, so he frowned and said, "That's fine. No matter who took it, we'll find it eventually."
The inner demon was unsheathed, black air was rising, and where the sword passed, a gaping hole was cut open. Shen Qingqiu reminded: "Withdraw."
Luo Binghe looked at him and said stiffly: "As Master wishes."
Liu Qingge took a step forward involuntarily and moved his lips. Shen Qingqiu turned around to look at the people from Cangqiong Mountain Sect, then looked at him, not knowing what to say.
The tip of the Chengluan sword hung down to the ground and moved upwards. Liu Qingge clenched his hands under his sleeves, and blood flowed from his burst knuckles, sliding down the sword and dripping.
He paused for a long while before uttering two words.
“Wait!”
These two words were like two icy cones thrown out, but they were filled with deep anger and overwhelming fighting spirit.
Luo Binghe sneered: "Come on."
The inner demon returns to the sheath.
The rift between the two worlds was connected by a wide stone corridor. Pairs of torches stretched endlessly forward, and the deepest part was an indistinct darkness.
Looking at the style of the murals on both sides of the stone corridor and the gloomy atmosphere, you can tell that this is Luo Binghe's demon base camp.
After the crack was sealed, Luo Binghe stopped clamping Shen Qingqiu and slowly loosened his grip.
Shen Qingqiu stood up straight, patted his sleeves, and said nothing.
The two of them were speechless, their eyes were fixed on each other, one in front and one behind, their footsteps were silent, and the atmosphere was stiff and cold.
Shen Qingqiu was very surprised.
He originally thought that seeing Luo Binghe again, with so many physical movements, the excitement should have continued to soar - well, although it was a bit shameless to think so. No, it should be said to be extremely shameless.
But the system remained silent, without making a single sound.
The forks in the underground palace did not affect Luo Binghe's speed at all. After going around in circles, the view in front of him suddenly opened up.
Most of the buildings in the demon world are located underground, hollowed out from the ground, and never see the sun, moon, and stars all year round. However, this piece of land has a hole in the ground at the top, allowing the sunlight to shine directly down, adding a lot of popularity.
Pushing the door open, the layout of the house looked very familiar, surprisingly similar to the Qingjing Peak Bamboo House.
Shen Qingqiu felt inexplicably angry.
He really wanted to say to Luo Binghe: What's the point? Just set up the scene like a stage play, keep him captive, pretend nothing happened, and continue playing the little drama of the love between master and apprentice in the dream?
Unfortunately, when you live under someone's roof, you have to swallow everything.
Luo Binghe took a step closer to Shen Qingqiu.
A few days earlier, Shen Qingqiu would have avoided it, taking one step forward and three steps back, but now, he didn't want to dodge or curl up, because that would make him look like a girl being held by thugs, too pretentious, too ugly, too hypocritical. Even if he was a dragon diving and a tiger in trouble (how shameless), he just wanted to maintain his last bit of elegance.
But he still couldn't help being nervous, his heart was tense, his knuckles curled, and his eyelids twitched.
