"I...I don't want to either..."
"And you know, if I get injured, I will recover soon. Fifty fire thunder whips should not take my life..." Yan Ying whispered.
She felt wronged. She had never seen Cen Ji so angry before. He always hid his emotions very well. Today, he suddenly got angry at her, which made her a little scared...
Cen Ji looked at Yan Ying coldly, and was so angry at her that he had nothing to say.
"It's better for me to kill you now than to see you beaten to death by others." Cen Ji said coldly.
Yan Ying looked up at Cen Ji, knowing that he was angry, so she lowered her head and dared not say a word.
Cen Ji let out a long sigh and looked at Yan Ying with his eyes lowered.
After a moment, Yan Ying carefully broke the silence.
"I thought you took the spiritual herb, and I was afraid that you would be punished. Master is on my side and will punish me less severely. If it were you... you would definitely be punished severely." Yan Ying felt uneasy when she was stared at by Cen Ji, and could only speak softly.
She had no choice, this was her mission, if she had him punished like in the original book, they would all be dead.
[System: Host, please note, Cen Jing's favorability +10, currently 50.]
Yan Ying was a little surprised, but she didn't find it strange, because Cen Ji had always been a man who said what he meant and what he said.
It was normal for him to feel a little touched that she took the blame for him.
"Do you think you are great?" Cen Ji sneered.
Sure enough, he started to say one thing and mean another.
"That's not the case..." Yan Ying muttered softly.
"But if you bring me out like this, Master will definitely be worried. You should take me back quickly before I'm out for too long..." How could she explain herself if she ran out like this?
"Impossible, don't even think about going back." Cen Ji said coldly.
"No, I want to go back." Yan Ying pouted and touched the Qiankun bag.
Cen Ji saw Yan Ying's movements, then grabbed Yan Ying's hand, bent down, and carried Yan Ying on his shoulders with neat movements, then walked forward.
"Ah! Put me down!" Yan Ying felt dizzy, and in front of her was the girdle tightly tied around Cen Ji's waist.
"Cen Ji, you can't take me away like this. I want to go back to the sect and explain things to everyone. Please let me down!" Yan Ying struggled.
Cen Ji grabbed Yan Ying's legs, raised one hand and hit Yan Ying's butt hard.
"Be honest."
After being slapped by Cen Ji, Yan Ying calmed down and stood still with a red face.
Cen Ji was so angry at Yan Ying that his heart was boiling with rage, but when he saw that Yan Ying had stopped struggling, he also felt bad.
His hand was numb from when he hit her just now. She must have been hurt by him.
Cen Ji put Yan Ying on the ground and sighed helplessly.
Yan Ying straightened her messy hair and looked at Cen Ji with a pout.
How did he put her down? He looked like a scoundrel when he carried her just now.
Cen Ji reached out and took the Qiankun bag from Yan Ying's waist.
"Give it back to me!" Yan Ying saw that her belongings had fallen into the hands of the gangsters and reached out to take them anxiously.
"Don't run around, someone will come to pick you up soon." Cen Ji said coldly.
Before Yan Ying could figure out what Cen Ji meant, he disappeared from her sight.
"Cen Ji?" Yan Ying turned around with her eyes wide open, and Cen Ji just left like that!
Cen Ji took away her Qiankun bag and left her here alone?
"Damn Cen Ji! I knew you had bad intentions!"
......
Guiyun Sect.
Ye Chenge rushed into the hall in a hurry.
She rushed over as soon as she heard the news, looked around the hall, but did not see Yan Ying.
"Where's Yan Ying? She won't take the spiritual herbs. Sect Master, this matter can't..."
"She was taken away by Cen Ji." Bai Huanzhi looked at Ye Chenge and said.
"What?" Ye Chenge asked in surprise.
It seems that Cen Ji didn't want Yan Ying to be punished, so he took her away. That's good. She thought the little dirty girl was going to be punished, but it's good that she wasn't.
Wu Bai, who was standing at the palace gate, also breathed a sigh of relief when he heard Bai Huanzhi's words.
How could my aunt possibly get the spiritual herbs for Mu Siyue? This is really weird.
"Master, this matter needs to be investigated carefully." Ye Chenge saluted Ning Hai.
We must not wrongly accuse the little dirty guy, nor let the person who actually took the spiritual herb escape punishment.
"No need to check." Cen Ji appeared in the hall.
Ning Hai frowned at the person who suddenly appeared in the hall. He actually dared to come back...
"The spiritual herb was taken by my disciple," Cen Ji said softly. "Yan Ying lied to take the blame for me."
Cen Ji's gaze swept across everyone in the hall and lingered on Mu Siyue's face for a moment.
As the two looked at each other, Cen Ji smiled.
Sister...Aji will take the blame for you again. This is the last time. After this, Aji and sister are even.
"I saw Senior Sister Mu unconscious and was anxious. I had no choice but to take the spiritual herb that could break the illusion."
"But before I could give her the medicine, she woke up, so I had no choice but to leave the spiritual herb in her room."
Cen Ji spoke word for word. "Senior Sister Mu saved my life, so I stole the spiritual herb to fight her off."
Even if he brought the little ghost back to the Demon Realm, they would not be able to do anything to him.
But the little ghost didn't seem to want to leave Guiyun Sect, and he couldn't take her away by force, so he came back to take the punishment so that he could continue to stay in Guiyun Sect with her.
Mu Siyue looked at Cen Ji, her eyes gradually becoming cold.
He just said, one for one, does that mean he wants to cut off ties with her?
Before she went down the mountain, she had a dream that she would be seriously injured at the foot of the mountain, and she also knew that Cen Ji would steal the spiritual herbs to save her.
So she took the spiritual herb before going down the mountain. In order to prevent Cen Ji from being punished, she was very careful on the road, but she was still injured.
She was able to wake up thanks to the spiritual herbs on her body, so after she woke up, she gave the spiritual herbs to Ning Hai and made up those words.
But she did this clearly to prevent Cen Ji from being punished, so why did Cen Ji look at her like that, as if she had done something wrong?
It was Yan Ying who confessed her guilt, but why does it seem like she is to blame?
"So, you came back to confess your crime?" Ning Hai asked in a deep voice.
He took Ying'er away and returned to the sect himself, probably because he was afraid that Ying'er would take the blame for him again.
This Cen Ji, actually has real feelings for Ying'er.
"Yes, disciple is willing to accept the punishment." Cen Ji bowed and said neither humbly nor arrogantly.
"Okay, just like I said just now, the spiritual herbs are not damaged, so I will give you a lighter punishment of fifty fire thunder whips. Do you agree?" Ning Hai looked at Cen Ji and asked.
"Disciple, I will go to the cave to receive punishment now." Cen Ji said and turned to walk out of the hall.
Mu Siyue frowned and looked at Cen Ji's back, her eyes full of unwillingness.
Cang Jinglan looked at Mu Siyue calmly, taking in her expression.
