Chapter 380 Change of Owners
Chapter 380 Change of Owners
Ji Yexue said in the most calm tone, words that left everyone dumbfounded.
The Yaotai Sect disciples present were in an uproar.
We just defeated a cult and found a group of traitors surrounding them.
In the blink of an eye, the sect leader handed over the entire sect to others.
This...what's going on?
Some people looked at Chu Qing, hoping that he would be upright and not mess around with the sect leader.
After all, the sect leader is indifferent, and in her eyes, the Yaotai Sect may not be that important.
But Chu Qing is a normal person at first glance, he should know how important Yaotai Sect is... but he can't accept such a "great gift".
But Chu Qing did not refuse as they thought, but said lightly:
"Empty words."
He just lip-synced and said that he wanted to give the Yaotai Sect to himself.
Looking back, the disciples of Yaotai Sect did not recognize him, let alone use him...
What's the point?
Ji Yexue thought for a moment and said:
"I have a sword named 'Twelve Cities', which is the sword worn by the leader of Yaotai Sect and also a token of his loyalty.
"With this sword in your hand, you can command all the disciples of Yaotai Sect."
"Master, please think twice!"
After she finished speaking, before Chu Qing could reply, some of the Yaotai Sect disciples below knelt down and begged.
"This person's origins are unknown, we cannot easily hand over power to him."
Someone else spoke up to stop it from another direction.
These two people seemed to have turned on some kind of switch. The disciples of Yaotai Sect knelt down and begged the Sect Master not to sell out the sect.
Ji Yexue didn't look at them, but looked at Chu Qing.
Chu Qing was a little curious:
"You also know swordsmanship?
"I didn't see you use ..."
"Just now...I forgot."
Ji Yexue said softly:
“I haven’t fought with anyone for many years, and I forgot that I still have a set of [Yujing Seventeen Swords] available.
"After I fell into a disadvantageous position, I did remember it...but it was too late."
Chu Qing had heard of the name of the [Seventeen Swords of Yujing], which was a unique skill that only the leader of the Yaotai Sect could practice.
Its status is no less than that of the [White Jade Eternal Life Sutra].
Chu Qing nodded:
“Okay, but you don’t need a sword.
“You issue a sect master’s decree, announcing that from today onwards, everyone in Yaotai Sect will respect me as the most respected, even the sect master is below me.
"Life and death are all in my hands.
"I thought that this way, when I need you, you will not be disobedient.
"Other than that, everything in Yaotai Sect remains the same as before."
"it is good."
Ji Yexue nodded in agreement immediately.
A group of disciples who had been kneeling on the ground, begging for a long time but to no avail, were filled with anger and ashamed when they heard that the two men had reached an agreement in just a few words.
I was furious that the Yaotai Sect changed its leader in just two or three words.
They were ashamed and annoyed that they were in such an attitude and the sect leader didn't even look at them.
Someone immediately stood up:
“For such an important matter to be handled so arbitrarily, wouldn’t it be disheartening for such a sect?
"My fellow disciples, I, Zhou Zhiyuan, will withdraw from the Yaotai Sect today. I do not want my fate to be manipulated so easily!!"
"it is good."
As soon as he finished speaking, Ji Yexue's eyes had already fallen on him:
“You want to withdraw from the sect, I promise you.
"Also, I will not punish you for betraying the sect...
“But you cannot take away the unique skills you have cultivated in my Yaotai Sect, and you cannot reveal even a single bit of them.
“In order to avoid any accidents, I need to cripple your martial arts, beat you into an idiot, and then banish you from the mountain.
"Are you convinced?"
The anger on Zhou Zhiyuan's face disappeared. He looked at Ji Yexue, then at Chu Qing, and finally at the many disciples of Yaotai Sect.
After thinking for a while, he knelt down with a plop:
"Master, you are too serious. I am a member of Yaotai Sect in life and a ghost of Yaotai Sect in death. I will never quit the sect in this life!!"
"..."
This shameless look is truly astonishing.
Chu Qing couldn't help laughing.
I just think this guy is a bit interesting... Let's say he is a man of insight, but he was the first to say that he wanted to quit the Yaotai Sect, which clearly shows that he is not so insightful.
And when Ji Yexue proposed to beat him into an idiot and destroy his martial arts.
He first looked at Ji Yexue, then at himself, and finally at the disciples of Yaotai Sect.
These glances may seem normal, but in fact they are weighing the pros and cons in his mind.
Eventually he discovered that he could not defeat Ji Yexue or Chu Qing. Even if all the disciples of Yaotai Sect joined together to resist this decision, they would eventually be easily suppressed.
In this case, the only thing to do is to accept reality.
Chu Qing speculated in his mind, and he didn't dare to say it was completely correct, but he estimated that it should be not much different.
So he smiled at Ji Yexue and said:
"Yaotai Sect is home to many talented people."
Ji Yexue said calmly:
“Each generation is worse than the last.”
She has a young face of about twenty years old, but she says what an elder should say. The contrast is quite striking.
The resistance of the Yaotai Sect disciples also disappeared because of Zhou Zhiyuan's interruption.
Everyone realizes a problem...
They can't resist!
When Ji Yexue was in seclusion, many elders of Yaotai Sect worked together to handle the affairs.
After Ji Yexue came out of seclusion, Yaotai Sect became Ji Yexue's one-man show.
They may not accept, but they have to obey.
Therefore, Ji Yexue didn’t need to seek their opinions at all. If she really couldn’t stand it, she could just leave... But you have to return what you learned from your master, and the Yaotai Sect’s martial arts must not be leaked, so they have to beat you into an idiot.
Even if he was beaten into amnesia, what if he was faking it?
Under such circumstances, no one dared to mention leaving the sect, and they could only agree obediently.
In the end, he could only comfort himself in his heart that this new... he didn't know whether to call him the sect leader or the supreme sect leader, did not seem to be a difficult person to get along with.
I just hope that the days ahead won't be too sad.
Chu Qing only then turned his attention to He Qiangu:
"Are you He Qiangu?"
"...Yes, my disciple is He Qiangu."
He Qiangu spoke cautiously. When he heard Chu Qing was looking for him, his heart was lifted.
But among all the affairs, Chu Qing never paid any attention to him.
He was actually happy and relaxed... But now Chu Qing mentioned his name again, which made his scalp tingle subconsciously.
Chu Qing looked at him carefully and then asked:
"I heard that you are engaged to the Han family?"
He Qiangu was stunned when he heard this, and immediately said:
“My disciple is indeed engaged to the Han family, but…but this engagement has been cancelled!
“The Han family of Liexing Mansion colluded with the Tianxie Cult and framed Tianyin Mansion.
"What you did is not tolerated by the righteousness of the martial arts world!
“How can I, He Qiangu, associate with people like them?
"So... I have already withdrawn from this marriage..."
When he was excited, he couldn't help but look up at Chu Qing, hoping to find some encouragement in Chu Qing's eyes. However, Chu Qing's eyes did not show any encouragement, but only coldness.
So much so that when he spoke to the end, his tone was obviously a little weak.
Chu Qing smiled, but the smile did not reach his eyes. The first sentence he said made He Qiangu sweat profusely:
"What is the relationship between you and the Evil Mirror?"
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone present couldn't help but look at He Qiangu.
Everyone knows what the Nie Jingtai is used for.
As a disciple of the Yaotai Sect, He Qiangu should not be involved with such a killer organization.
And He Qiangu also said immediately:
"This disciple has no connection with the Evil Mirror Platform... Please understand clearly, sir."
He felt a little embarrassed about the title. Ji Yexue was clearly the leader of Yaotai Sect, so he couldn't call Chu Qing the leader.
But speaking of the Supreme Master, something doesn't seem quite right.
Just call him adult.
Chu Qing smiled again and pointed at Wenren Qianluo:
"Do you know her?"
He Qiangu turned his head and took a look, shaking his head repeatedly:
"I don't know him."
"Think about it first..."
Chu Qing's tone suddenly became gloomy.
His [Zhao Yu Shen Ce] was too terrifying. Even though he hadn't really adjusted his internal energy yet, the pressure it brought seemed to have set off a raging wave.
Under his anger, the sky, which was originally relatively clear, seemed to become gloomy, as if dark clouds were pressing down and a storm was about to come.
Although his voice was not loud, every word he spoke struck deep into He Qiangu's heart.
Boom, boom!
There was a loud bang!
He Qiangu felt as if something was disconnected in his brain, and he kowtowed repeatedly subconsciously:
"I know I was wrong, I know I was wrong. I was just confused for a moment, just confused for a moment!"
Seeing his behavior, everyone in the venue immediately understood that this kid was actually involved with the Evil Mirror Platform.
But how did Chu Qing know?
Wu Qianhuan looked at He Qiangu thoughtfully, then looked at Chu Qing.
She had talked to Chu Qing before, and now she was able to sort out the whole thing according to Chu Qing's thoughts, especially after He Qiangu admitted that he was involved with Nie Jingtai, the whole context of the matter was complete.
Otherwise, she always felt that something was strange.
According to the information they had compiled earlier, this time, Nie Jingtai first killed the Lord of Qingwu City and framed Chu Qing and his group.
Then he provoked the disciples of Yaotai Sect to come and cause trouble.
Naturally, this group of people were no match for Chu Qing. Whether Chu Qing killed them or defeated them, it would arouse the wrath of the Yaotai Sect.
Just adding a little fuel to the fire would easily lead to an irreconcilable conflict between Yaotai Sect and Chu Qing.
This group of people took advantage of the situation and while Chu Qing was dealing with the Yaotai Sect, they launched an attack and killed people.
During this process, the people from Niejingtai hid in Yaotai Sect.
It was as if the person who took action at the Niejingtai just now was a man dressed in the clothes of a Yaotai Sect disciple.
There is nothing wrong with the whole plan, but there is one weird thing...
How did they hide so easily in the Yaotai Sect?
Chu Qing was able to suspect He Qiangu, perhaps because the timing of He Qiangu's previous breakout was too strange.
When he escaped, it was not because the Yaotai Sect disciples had let their guard down against him, nor was it because he knew he was doomed to die and was desperate and making a last gamble.
The possibility of escaping in that situation is less than 10% out of a hundred miles.
On the contrary, the chaos caused at this moment gave the people of Niejingtai the opportunity to assassinate Wenren Qianluo.
Therefore, Chu Qing set his sights on He Qiangu.
It is only natural to suspect that he has been involved with Niejingtai for a long time.
It was he who helped the killers from Niejingtai to sneak into Yaotai Sect.
He ran away not to escape, but to create an opportunity for the people from Nie Jingtai to take action.
Thinking of this, Wu Qianhuan felt that her whole mind became clear and everything became reasonable.
But when she thought back on it, she felt that everything was as it should be.
Chu Qing was afraid that he had understood everything at the very beginning...
This person is very cunning.
"It's good that you admit it. Let me ask you, what is your identity in the Evil Mirror Platform?"
"...Disciple, disciple is about to be promoted to the Evil Slaying List..."
Chu Qing was stunned when he heard this:
"You... the Evil Slayer List?"
Then he burst into laughter, feeling that the Evil-Slaying List was becoming less and less valuable.
He Qiangu didn't hear the contempt in Chu Qing's tone, he just nodded repeatedly:
“They said that as long as this task is completed, the disciple can be promoted to the Evil Slaying List.
"And when they attacked me just now, they also promised to take me away..."
Before he could finish his words, he saw Chu Qing suddenly stretch out his hand.
The finger shadow flew out, almost brushing his scalp, followed by a ding sound.
He Qiangu turned around hurriedly and saw a figure with blood spurting out of his mouth and flying backwards.
A hidden weapon also fell to the ground.
The shuttle-shaped hidden weapon was azure blue in color, and was obviously filled with poison.
He Qiangu simply couldn't imagine what would happen to him if this hidden weapon hit him.
Then Chu Qing's voice was heard:
"How dare you be so presumptuous in front of me? Do you need courage from heaven?"
He Qiangu shook his head, then looked up at Chu Qing, and found that there was an extra person under his feet.
After seeing the man's appearance clearly, he immediately said:
"Sir, this person is another assassin that Nie Jingtai has planted in my Yaotai Sect!"
Need I say more about this obvious thing?
Chu Qing looked at He Qiangu as if he was an idiot. The fact that he kept saying "they" just now already explained a lot of problems.
At that time, Chu Qing estimated that some people would be unable to sit still.
It turns out that when something is said at a crucial moment, someone will suddenly throw out a hidden weapon and kill the person who is speaking. This kind of thing is not just a plot in TV dramas.
Unfortunately, in front of Chu Qing, the other party failed.
Chu Qing glanced at He Qiangu:
"Are there any other assassins?"
"No, just the two of them."
He Qiangu was still a little frightened.
Chu Qing nodded:
"I guess that you broke off the engagement with the Han family, but the dowry was not returned, right?
"Someone... bring the dowry that the Han family gave to He Qiangu."
Hearing Chu Qing giving orders, everyone subconsciously glanced at Ji Yexue. Seeing that she had no expression and no approval or opposition, they knew that this was her tacit agreement.
Immediately, a disciple clasped his fists and agreed.
As for where the dowry is... He Qiangu is not the only one who knows. After all, where in this world are there any real secrets?
My fellow disciples are getting married, and as far as dowries and betrothal gifts are concerned, we have discussed this countless times.
There is no need for He Qiangu to lead the way.
Chu Qing saw that He Qiangu seemed to be fine, so he didn't want to leave him idle, so he said to Su Ningzhen:
"You're free anyway, why don't you take revenge?
"Just don't kill him."
