"Senior Brother, it seems you're not as upright as you appear," Shen Qing's slightly teasing voice came. When Pei Xuanjing heard it, he felt that the voice was full of sarcasm.
He pretended to be calm and looked at Shen Qing. "Did you use some kind of trick again?"
Shen Qing scoffed. "Do you think I'm capable of that?"
"What on earth are you guys talking about? Senior Brother, don't you see that Junior Sister Xiaobai is about to collapse? That sword cultivator must be in cahoots with Shen Qing. They're just waiting for the chaos to get rid of Junior Sister Xiaobai. Don't be stupid!"
He Yu couldn't wait any longer. He saw that Lin Yibai had more and more wounds on her body, and her steps were starting to falter.
"If you don't get out of the way, don't blame me for ignoring our brother - sister情谊 and slaying you on the spot!"
Shen Qing lifted her chin, full of provocation. "I'm not getting out of the way. What can you do about it?"
He Yu gritted his teeth. In an instant, he took out dozens of magic treasures from his storage bag. "Then don't blame me!"
Li Xian, who was still chasing Lin Yibai, also started to get impatient.
Clearly, Lin Yibai's cultivation was not high, but her movement technique was extremely strange. No matter where he attacked or what moves he used, Lin Yibai always seemed to be able to predict in advance.
In the secret realm, she had used a mission to send the two rogue cultivators away. When he was alone, she had planned to feed him pills.
Although he was on guard, Lin Yibai always managed to find an opening.
With that seemingly innocent face, Lin Yibai did disgusting and vulgar things.
Li Xian didn't even know when he had been tricked. The aphrodisiac - like drug made him retain only a shred of reason, preventing him from running around naked on the spot.
Every time he thought of this, Li Xian wished he could tear Lin Yibai to pieces.
"What on earth are you?"
Li Xian couldn't help but ask, but his moves didn't hold back at all. He fought with the intention to kill in every battle.
Lin Yibai relied on the system's prediction of Li Xian's moves to avoid his killing blows.
But as the demonic qi gradually dissipated, her strength was almost used up. If this continued, she would be killed by Li Xian.
Out of the corner of her eye, Lin Yibai looked at the three people blocked by Shen Qing and cursed them as useless in her heart.
Excluding Shen Qing, it should be as easy as snapping a finger. Why was it taking so long?
Lin Yibai's eyes twitched slightly. She showed a pitiful expression, and her voice seemed to be seductive. "Brother Li, do you have some misunderstanding about me?"
Hearing the word "brother", Li Xian remained unmoved. "I'm not related to you, and we have no brother - sister relationship. Now that you've fallen into the demonic path, we're not even fellow cultivators. Be honest. Are you a demon sent by the demon world?"
Seeing that her charm had no effect at all, Lin Yibai could only stall for time. "Do you want to know?… Alright… I'll tell you…"
As she spoke, Lin Yibai crushed the teleportation talisman in her hand and fled towards Pei Xuanjing and the others.
The demonic qi on her body had been almost cleansed by the system. If she showed up now, Pei Xuanjing and the others probably wouldn't notice.
Li Xian sensed her intention and quickly tried to stop her, but it was too late.
Relying on the power of Lingzhou, Shen Qing was extremely sensitive to her surroundings.
Before everyone could react, she picked up Biluo and slashed at the place where Lin Yibai appeared.
The tip of the sword stopped only two inches from Lin Yibai's neck. If it had gone any further, Lin Yibai's neck would have been cut off by Shen Qing.
"Shen Qing, how dare you!"
Pei Xuanjing's body moved faster than his mind. He slapped Shen Qing on the shoulder.
Unable to dodge in time, Shen Qing's sword tip deviated. It only lightly scratched Lin Yibai's neck, leaving a tiny bloodstain.
Pei Xuanjing used all his strength in this slap. Even Shen Qing, as she was now, was knocked back continuously.
"Be careful."
Someone supported her from behind. Li Xian's worried voice came.
Shen Qing looked at Biluo with annoyance.
Why hadn't she been faster and closer just now? She was just a little bit away from killing Lin Yibai.
Lin Yibai and her可恶 system could have disappeared from this world forever and stopped doing evil.
Lin Yibai weakly leaned in Pei Xuanjing's arms. The scarlet in her eyes faded, leaving only a pitiful blush. The glistening tears dripped, making Pei Xuanjing and the others feel heart - ache.
Pei Xuanjing felt a trace of demonic qi remaining on Lin Yibai's body. It seemed to be on her, but also seemed to be left over from killing the demonic beasts.
He began to feel confused. Unconsciously, his hands tightened on Lin Yibai's shoulders.
"It hurts…"
Lin Yibai's pained cry with a sob brought Pei Xuanjing back to his senses. He quickly let go of his hands.
His eyes were full of complexity. He said with a hint of apology, "I'm sorry, Junior Sister Xiaobai. I didn't notice…"
"It's okay. You saved me," Lin Yibai looked up, her moist eyes full of gratitude as she looked at Pei Xuanjing.
"And Senior Brother Er and Senior Brother San, thank you for saving me." After looking at everyone with grateful eyes, Lin Yibai showed a scared and shrinking look.
"Don't be angry with Junior Sister Shen. Although she's jealous of me and asked Brother Li to deal with me, I've decided to forgive her. After all, I was also wrong in the previous things. It's only natural for Junior Sister Shen to vent her anger."
Hearing Lin Yibai mention Shen Qing, the expressions of the others changed. They recalled what had just happened.
He Yu turned around and shouted at Shen Qing, "You narrow - minded woman. I shouldn't have been soft - hearted and said that you could return to Worry - Free Peak. You don't deserve it!"
Nan Zhijin also chimed in with some cold words. "How long are you going to hold on to the past? Do you have to push our years - long relationship to this point to be satisfied?"
Pei Xuanjing felt the warmth and sweetness in his arms. He strongly denied in his heart that there was demonic qi on Lin Yibai.
It must have been his imagination. Shen Qing had also misunderstood, which was why such a misunderstanding had occurred.
As the senior brother, he should resolve these misunderstandings.
Yes! That's right! This must be another misunderstanding!!
Junior Sister Xiaobai was so kind, gentle and good. How could she be willing to fall into the demonic path and become a cruel demonic cultivator.
"Junior Sister Shen, there are demonic beasts everywhere here. What just happened must be a misunderstanding. Talk to Fellow Daoist Li. After resolving the misunderstanding, just apologize to Junior Sister Xiaobai, and we'll let bygones be bygones."
"Senior Brother?!"
Before Shen Qing could respond, He Yu and Nan Zhijin disagreed immediately.
"Senior Brother, Shen Qing and that sword cultivator have done such rude things. We can't let them off lightly!"
He Yu squeezed out such a sentence from his throat and glared at Shen Qing.
"Shen Qing, I've had enough of your arrogance. I'll enforce the sect rules in the name of a disciple of Real Person Hengling. I'll slay you on the spot today. It's better to keep this family scandal within the family than to let everyone in the sect know about the dirty things you've done after we go back!"
After saying that, he raised his hand. Dozens of magic tools surrounded him and attacked Shen Qing together.
