Chapter 74 Inner Demon
He Qing scratched his chin and muttered to himself: "Theoretically, Gu Changnian shouldn't be influenced by you so easily, but you succeeded... Well, somewhat Unbelievable.”
Lu Li looked at her for a long time, and suddenly felt a little angry in his heart——
Is this woman really unaware of Gu Changnian's thoughts about her?
She is not a slow person, but on this matter, she always seems so dull. Are you pretending to be stupid on purpose? Or maybe he was hurt too much and doesn't want to trust Gu Changnian anymore?
No matter which one it was, it seemed that Lu Li was not very happy.
Thinking like this, Lu Li said bluntly with a hint of sarcasm: "He was not influenced by me, but because of you."
He Qing was stunned when he heard this, and then shook his head confidently: "This is absolutely impossible." It's hard for others to say, but Gu Changnian will never have evil thoughts or inner demons because of her. He loves Hua Chi Yu and hates his master deeply. This is engraved in the DNA of this paper man.
At this time, Yue Qingru's door finally opened. She had messy light gray hair and slightly swollen eyelids. She yawned and said vaguely: "Good morning, master."
He Qing turned back and smiled at her: "Morning." This child had really slept through it.
Yue Qingru saw Lu Li again and suddenly woke up. She ran forward and hugged He Qing tightly: "You want to ask Master to open a small stove for you again! Fortunately, I got up early and didn't miss it!"
He Qing couldn't help laughing and thought to himself, silly boy, you have missed several rounds of melons!
Lu Li, on the other hand, didn't even look at Yue Qingru. His eyes were always on He Qing. His eyes were deep and he couldn't tell what he was thinking.

Gu Changnian returned to the room and continued to meditate cross-legged, but the spiritual energy in his body was like a wild horse running wild, running around in the meridians, completely out of his control. There seemed to be countless people's words in his mind, both in the past and the present. It made him restless and confused.
(Master blames his disciple for falling asleep in the middle of serving last night?)
(Chang Nian, don’t you know how I feel about you? I don’t want to be your master!)
(You really hurt my heart so much. What’s so good about Huachiyu? Is it worth your time to sacrifice for her? Go out? I saved your life, it’s mine!)
(Gu Changnian, who doesn’t know about the dirty things between you and your master? You can’t stop me even if you kill me today! The rumors that live outside.)
(If I say that everything that just happened was a misunderstanding, would you believe it?)
(Okay, we are even.)
(He ruined my innocence. Reputation, what does it have to do with you?)
…
"puff--"
Gu Changnian spat out another mouthful of blood, and the spiritual energy he had finally gathered dissipated again, leaving him unable to sit up on the bed, gasping for breath.
He thought he should wake up.
The master in her memory was completely different, and she had changed.
He should have been convinced of the fact long ago that the master no longer had feelings for him as a man and a woman, nor as a master-student relationship. To the master, he is probably no better than an outsider.
What made Master what he is now is Lu Li and the mysterious person behind Lu Li.
It was they who changed the master and made him more ruthless and ruthless.
If not for their influence, maybe after the master gave up his obsession with him, the master would be able to return to his former master, and he and the master could have the most ordinary master-disciple relationship.
It's all because of Lu Li...
The evil spirit between Gu Changnian's brows reappeared, but he did not recite the Heart Clearing Mantra to suppress it. Instead, he allowed the evil spirit to further erode the sea of consciousness.
After a while, a familiar voice seemed to come from Gu Changnian's mind——
"Yes, it's all because of Lu Li. You've already seen it, haven't you? There's something weird about him." Yes, there's something wrong with him, but I haven't figured out his origins yet.
"Why not contact Chen Sanyi? Chen Sanyi must know something."
Chen Sanyi...Master regards Chen Sanyi as an enemy.
"You still care what Master does? Do you still think that your Master is pure and innocent? Do you really believe that what Lu Li said is just nonsense?"
No, Master wouldn't be so unbearable, and she didn't really do anything to me in those years.
"But she has changed. Under Lu Li's influence, she has fallen. Maybe she regards Lu Li as your substitute, or maybe it is because of her nature that she has not understood it for a long time."
Depraved...not innocent...
"Yes, with such a master, why do you still defend her? Why should you care about her? If she is not a dissolute person, one day you reveal the truth, everything can go back to the past, and the master is still your master, which can be regarded as a salvation If she doesn't want to look back, what's the use of this kind of master?"
Yeah……
Yes, that's exactly it.
Gu Changnian's eyes gradually became firmer, and there was even a fierce look in his eyes.

Qi Guanrui led He Qing and the others out of the house. They first walked around Liangzhou City and introduced the situation in the city.
"There are spirit-detecting stones placed at the four city gates of the east, west, north and south." Qi Guanrui said: "These spirit-detecting stones are all connected to Grandpa's soul. Grandpa can sense them when demon cultivators pass by the city gates."
He Qing thought of the Yuan Shen investigation he encountered last night, and raised his eyebrows with difficulty: "The old man is indeed very capable, and the power of the Yuan Shen has reached its peak."
Qi Guanrui heard something in He Qing's words, thought about it carefully, and then realized it, and said apologetically: "I didn't tell you in advance. Grandpa, he was not targeting you or your disciples. Grandpa has been doing this for decades. "
"How many decades? You still have your own people in your house to investigate?"
Qi Guanrui nodded: "Yes, although I don't know the deeper meaning, since grandpa did this, he must have his reasons." Then he pointed to an inn ahead: "There is only one demon cultivator currently stranded in the city. Stay in this inn.”
He Qing pondered for a moment and said, "I'm going to say hello."
"What?" Qi Guanrui was surprised for a moment: "You want to go and say hello to the demon cultivator?"
He Qing said calmly, "We are both monks, so it's okay to go and say hello." After saying that, he told Yue Qingru, "Qingru, you and Lu Li should not wander around with the second young master Qi Guan."
Lu Li was obviously his senior brother, but every time when this happened, He Qing would specifically tell Yue Qingru, as if to remind her to protect Lu Li. Although Yue Qingru was a little reluctant about this, she also felt extremely honored, so she nodded heavily: "Don't worry, Master, I will definitely protect Lu Li!"
Lu Li glanced at He Qing with a half-smile, and said pointedly: "The master must come back soon, this disciple can't live without the master for even a moment."
He Qing gritted his teeth and smiled: "Okay, you have to be good."
Qi Guanrui turned away his eyes again: See no evil, hear no evil. He Qing must be suffering too much in her heart. She wants to get some comfort from her young apprentice, but it may not really be anything...
