Chapter 63 Let’s go down the mountain

He Qing doesn't want to stay with Gu Changnian for even a second now. She can yell at Gu Changnian, but Yue Qingru's attitude toward people and things depends entirely on He Qing's attitude. Gu Changnian is still friendly. If He Qing and Gu Changnian are at odds with each other again and Yue Qingru is retaliated against in the future, it will be more of a loss than a gain.

Thinking about this, He Qing gave a reason that seemed reasonable on the surface: "There have been a lot of things lately, and the sect still needs to keep people, so you should stay at Beifeng just in case."

"..." How could Gu Changnian not understand that this was just an excuse for rejection? Has the Yaoguang sect ever had any precedent of retaining someone to look after the family? One master and one disciple is everything to the Yaoguang Sect.

But considering that this was a rare good look shown by He Qing after talking to him in the corridor, Gu Changnian could only accept it no matter how depressed he was.

That night, He Qing ran to find Lu Li again.

Under the candlelight, Lu Li was looking through some Dharma books. He didn't raise his head when he heard the noise. The warm orange light reflected on his fair and sickly face, which actually showed some warmth.

However, the smile hanging on his lips was obviously a bit contemptuous, which was incompatible with his little white face.

He Qing set up a barrier and paced over while muttering: "If you don't like these fairy books, why bother to force yourself."

Lu Li chuckled lightly and said, "These books of law have not been changed or expanded for tens of thousands of years. It is reasonable that no one has ascended."

He Qing raised his eyebrows noncommittally: "No one from your demonic path has ascended."

When Lu Li heard this, he said seriously: "The devil cultivator is an abandoned son of heaven. The efforts and risks he takes cannot be compared with the immortal way."

He Qing thought about what Lu Li said carefully, and he somewhat agreed in his heart——

The people of the Immortal Sect use the skills left by the ancient gods and win the favor of Heaven. As long as they are talented enough and have a firm Taoist heart, the biggest test in the process of cultivation is nothing more than a heavenly catastrophe. But at the same time, because of the There are enough resources, but they lose too much effort. Without the guidance of the ancient gods, it will be difficult to ascend on their own.

On the other hand, if the demon cultivators could enjoy the favors that the immortal cultivators received from heaven, the immortal sect might have been trampled by the demon cultivators long ago.

But He Qing didn't come here tonight just to discuss the past and future of immortals and demons with Lu Li.

She closed the Dharma book that Lu Li was reading and propped herself up on the desk in this position. While observing Lu Li's reaction, she said, "I think it's not a bad idea to go to Santu River for a walk as Qingru said today. What do you think?"

Chen Sanyi may not disclose the fact that Lu Li is a demon master for a short period of time out of self-interest, but if he continues to be unable to profit from Lu Li, there is no telling what he will do next.

Judging from the current situation, Lu Li's continued stay with her is a time bomb. He Qing thought that if he knew about the current situation of the Demonic Path, he might be able to find a good candidate to send Lu Li away, which would not delay cooperation and No more worrying.

Lu Li also turned sideways and looked at He Qing, and said in a rather playful tone: "Master, since you are so concerned about your disciple's affairs, why don't you come and ask your disciple directly?" As he spoke, he lifted up a strand of He Qing's hair. Long hair, carefully played with in hands.

He Qing smiled and said, "You have always been a dishonest child. As a teacher, how could I know that you would tell the truth?"

The two people's voices were very soft and they were close. Although there was no direct physical contact, the atmosphere was somewhat ambiguous for no reason. However, both of them knew clearly that what surged under this ambiguity was mutual vigilant temptation. .

Lu Li looked at the hair in his hands and felt the slight coolness coming from there. The smile on his face gradually deepened: "Master, you might as well give it a try and see if the disciple can be as master wants." "Then I will. Ask directly." He Qing stood up straight, pulled back the strand of hair, and asked, "Is there anyone among the demon cultivators you can trust who can help you?"

Lu Li leaned his head sideways, looked at He Qing with a smile, and said unhurriedly: "Master, haven't you heard about it today? Among the demon cultivators, those who don't obey me account for the majority."

"Is that true?" He Qing said unexpectedly: "But since your cultivation level increased greatly thirty or forty years ago, even if they dissatisfied with you, they wouldn't dare to take action against you, right? Are the people who are chasing you a demon cultivator? "

Lu Li shook his head, but did not give any further explanation.

He Qing asked again: "Although the Immortal Sect has been secretly paying attention to every move of the demon cultivator, it has not wanted to fight directly, so the person who is chasing you will not be the Immortal Sect, neither the Demonic Path nor the Immortal Sect. Who will hunt you down?"

Lu Li seemed to like to see He Qing racking his brains for him, and smiled and gave two words: "Guess."

He Qing was silent, holding back his anger, and continued to ask: "I went to Guanyue to confirm. According to him, the demon cultivator has not done anything radical in the past few decades. It was because of you thirty or forty years ago. The reason for killing a few elites?”

Lu Li raised his eyebrows slightly and thought for a moment: "Maybe."

"Can you please speak properly?" He Qing couldn't bear it and slapped him on the head, but he firmly grabbed his wrist. He Qing struggled symbolically and said: "You said these words as if you didn't say them. ”

Lu Li looked at her with a deep look, and said with a half-smile: "If one day, Master is willing to tell you the reason why you can't kill Gu Changnian yourself, maybe everything Master wants to know will be at your fingertips."

"..." He Qing pulled his hand out angrily and looked at him speechlessly: I asked him how could he be so calm? He was waiting for me here. Then he said: "Okay, if that's the case, let's go down the mountain. I want to see how unpopular you, young gentleman, are." After saying that, he walked away.

Lu Li looked at He Qing's leaving figure with a hint of smile in his eyes.

For some reason, He Qing's behavior of wanting to understand him actually made him feel happy from the bottom of his heart.

He Qing acted resolutely and quickly informed the other Four Peaks heads of her plan to go down the mountain and take a trip to Santuchuan. The heads were accustomed to her being the shopkeeper for many years, so they were surprised and agreed.

However, what He Qing didn't expect was that after she said she wanted to leave Gu Changnian to guard the door, Xuan Qingzi would offer to let Gu Changnian go with him to check the seal.

He Qing naturally disagreed with this. If Gu Changnian saw something from those seals and discovered Lu Li's identity, it would not be as easy to deal with as Chen Sanyi.

Of course, what surprised He Qing even more was that Guan Yue also disagreed.

There is no other reason, because Guanyue has approved Huachiyu's request to go down the mountain, and it is precisely because he wants to go with Xuan Qingzi.
