Faced with Liao Qifeng's loss of composure, Sheng Ning's expression turned cold and stern.
Her delicate eyebrows furrowed slightly, and the long sword in her hand seemed to sense its owner's emotions, its blade radiating a fierce aura.
"So what? Do you know that if you kill him, not only will Youyun City be in trouble, but all the people in the world will be in trouble."
"Liao Qifeng, why did you enter the Dao in the first place? And why did you travel around to train?"
"I have no objection to you killing him now. But in the future, when the demon army invades, can you single-handedly stand against ten thousand soldiers and protect all living beings?"
Sheng Ning rarely shows such a stern expression.
Even when faced with danger, she always has a smiling face.
Perhaps it was because she was usually too unreliable that she changed everyone's impression of her.
Liao Qifeng's face, which had been roaring wildly, froze at her words.
After hearing these words, Xuanming also gave Sheng Ning a deep look.
After a moment, he chuckled softly, "I didn't expect that even after you've been reincarnated, your thoughts are still the same as before, unchanged."
"But Sheng Ning, what do the people of this world have to do with you? You protect them, but will they call you 'Mother'?"
"If it weren't for you back then, all the people in this world would have perished long ago. But now do you see? Apart from these cultivators, who else remembers you?"
"On the contrary, I only used a little trick to get those fools to offer incense to A Yao's statue, giving A Yao the power of faith. Sheng Ning, don't you think you've failed miserably?"
"Why did you go to all that trouble to save such an ungrateful bunch in the first place?"
A low, husky voice rang out in the utterly silent street.
Liao Qifeng did not understand what Xuanming was saying.
He turned to look at Sheng Ning, his face still blank. "Sheng Ning, what did he mean by that?"
"What do you mean... you saved all living beings?"
Sheng Ning did not answer his question, but merely curled her lip after hearing Xuan Ming's words of sowing discord.
"You are not me, so how would you know if I regret it or not, let alone whether I wanted to save the world or the people around me?"
"This tactic of sowing discord won't work on me."
After saying that, she looked up at Liao Qifeng and said, "This man is the Demon Lord, who controls the entire Demon Clan. You can't kill him. He's useful to me. I'm going to take him back."
Seeing that she was about to leave, Liao Qifeng's blank expression disappeared, replaced by fear. "Are you going back to the Invincible Sect?"
"Sheng Ning, can I go back with you?"
His voice carried a hint of pleading.
Youyun City fell, and as the young city lord, he didn't even get to see his father one last time.
There isn't a single civilian left in the city. What is he, the young city lord, doing guarding this empty city?
It would be better to leave with Sheng Ning and the others.
"Perhaps I can be of some help."
Yu had never seen anyone so difficult and shameless.
They also deeply regretted the fall of Youyun City, but at that time they were in the Northern Secret Realm, so how could they know what had happened in Youyun City?
The demons launched a surprise attack, catching Youyun City completely off guard. By the time anyone discovered it, Youyun City was already beyond saving.
As the young city lord, Liao Qifeng not only ran around behind his father's back, but he also failed to receive timely news from his own family.
Why should he leave with them now that he's become like this?
With his brows furrowed, Yu Ye asked in a deep voice, "Why are you coming with us?"
"Young City Lord, shouldn't you be gathering cultivators to attack the demon race?"
“You’ve been investigating the goddess statue recently. Now that you’ve come this far, why not continue?”
"You're going to come back to the Invincible Sect with us. Then what? You'll just follow whatever we do. How much of a role can you play?"
Yu Ye's words suddenly enlightened Liao Qifeng.
The sorrowful expression on his face subsided slightly, and he curled his lips into an ugly smile. "Fellow Daoist is right. It was Liao who was foolish."
He raised his hand and vigorously wiped his reddened eyes. When he opened his eyes again, he grinned at Sheng Ning.
"I will investigate the matter of the goddess statues as soon as possible and remove all goddess statues as soon as possible, Sheng Ning, you can rest assured."
"No matter what you do, Liao will stand by you. I hope that when we meet again, you will be even better and more outstanding than you are now."
"Me too. I will become better and more outstanding, I will fulfill my father's long-cherished wish, and I will rebuild the new Youyun City..."
"Sheng Ning, will we meet again someday?"
As he finished speaking, Liao Qifeng's words became cautious once again.
His eyes were fixed on the person in front of him, as if they were thin glass that would shatter into pieces at the slightest carelessness.
Seeing the pleading look in his eyes, Sheng Ning finally smiled and said, "Of course, young city lord, we'll meet at the summit."
"Yes! We'll definitely meet at the summit!"
-
"So that kid actually had a crush on my Aning?!?"
On the lush green mountaintop, a scream suddenly rang out, startling the wild beasts that scattered in all directions, fearing they would be the next to suffer.
Yu stared wide-eyed in disbelief, and the next moment, he was panting heavily.
"I even used motivational techniques to encourage him, and he actually had designs on my Aning, and even asked her if she was married!"
"Pah! He's nobody!"
Yu exhaled a breath of air onto the ground, his face flushed with anger. "If he hadn't just experienced the pain of losing his father, he certainly wouldn't be far away by now."
"Even if I use a speed-up spell, I'll still catch up to him. I'll beat him up first!"
Guan Yunchuan nodded silently beside him, "Count me in, I'll go and kill him."
The person involved, Sheng Ning, continued walking towards the sect.
Hearing her fourth senior brother's excited words, she kept walking, "It's all in the past, fourth senior brother, calm down."
"How am I supposed to stay calm? Junior Sister, you just made an appointment with him to meet at the summit!"
Damn it!
What else could this be but a love confession?!
Could it be my junior sister?
No way, Junior Sister's taste can't be that bad!
Sheng Ning felt a chill run down her spine from his gaze. Seeing that he kept bringing up the matter, she helplessly shrugged and said, "If I hadn't said that, he would probably have come to the Invincible Sect again."
“His talent is great, and your talents are not bad either. When I meet him at the peak, you will surely have reached the peak as well.”
"I'll need my fellow students to help me out then."
Yu Ye breathed a sigh of relief after hearing her words. He was terrified; he thought his junior sister had really fallen for Liao Qifeng.
He imagined what it would be like for the two of them to be together in the future, and he couldn't help but shudder, his back covered in a cold sweat.
Fortunately, the junior sister didn't like him.
"It's getting dark, let's hurry. It's been a while since we last saw each other. I wonder how Master is doing at home all by himself, and if he misses us."
Sheng Ning's words immediately perked up Yu Ye and the others.
They kept a low profile this time because they brought Xuanming with them.
Fortunately, cultivators are fast, and before the sun had set, Sheng Ning and his group of eight finally stood in front of the gate of the Invincible Sect.
