Qin Gengyun said respectfully: "Peace Master, my wife and I are casual cultivators and do not have advanced skills. Our cultivation reaches a bottleneck when we reach the foundation. We want to seek the great path and gain immortality. Only large sects have advanced skills. But Help us break through the bottleneck.”
"My wife and I discussed it and we both felt that the Zhenyang Sect is the leader of the righteous path in the world. It must have profound skills and will not oppress unknown casual cultivators. That's why we decided to come to Zhenyang Mountain to try our luck."
"Hiding the relationship is also because of concerns about the sect's rules. If they knew that we were husband and wife, I'm afraid they wouldn't agree to let us enter the sect."
"But we, husband and wife, truly admire the Zhenyang Sect, and we only want to improve our cultivation when we join the sect!"
"We tried our best to resist the beast tide and almost lost our lives. We have absolutely no sympathy for the sect. Please forgive us! Don't drive us off Zhenyang Mountain!"
Qin Gengyun spoke with deep affection, and even after he finished speaking, he pulled Qiu Zhihe, who was dazed beside him, to salute and plead with Tantai Mingyue.
Qiu Zhihe was pulled by him to salute, and couldn't help but turn her head to look at Qin Gengyun's profile as calm as a mountain, and suddenly felt a sigh in her heart that the little chicken she had carefully cared for had grown up.
Tantai Mingyue opposite was also shocked by Qin Gengyun's words. It was not that Qin Gengyun's "loyalty" to the sect moved her so much, but Qin Gengyun's last words.
“Don’t drive us down Zhenyang Mountain!”
If it was really a remnant of the Demon Sect who had sneaked in, and faced with his doubts, his first reaction would be to plead with himself to believe him.
But He Zhiqiu's reaction was not to drive them out of Zhenyang Sect.
This is consistent with what He Zhiqiu said, "I want to enter the Zhenyang Sect to obtain advanced skills and break through the bottleneck of cultivation."
Tantai Mingyue is attentive and pays attention to details, but the details shown by He Zhiqiu just show his innocence with Ruomei.
However, Tantai Mingyue did not completely believe his words and said calmly:
"Ruomei went down the mountain to buy supplies, but came back half a day later than the other disciples. Why? Is it really because the quantity of spiritual essence purchased is not enough? Or do you have other plans?"
Tantai Mingyue's voice gradually became severe.
This is the final interrogation. If they can still pass the test, Tantai Mingyue will temporarily suspend his suspicion.
If any flaw is revealed, Tantai Mingyue will immediately take action and summon all the disciples of Zhenyang Sect to surround and kill the two of them!
Qiu Zhihe noticed the killing intent in Tantai Mingyue's eyes, and she clenched her hands slightly.
If I really take action, I must protect my husband and let him escape first. If I cannot escape, I will let everyone in the Zhenyang Sect be buried with me!
It was dark outside the window, and the atmosphere in the room was quiet and undercurrent.
Qin Gengyun didn't seem to notice the vague murderous intention. He scratched his head and felt a little embarrassed:
"To report to the head, in fact, the lady came back half a day late and did other things."
Tantai Mingyue narrowed her eyes: "What did you do?"
Qin Gengyun turned to look at Qiu Zhihe, with tenderness in his eyes, and then answered;
"It's my birthday in a few days. My wife gives me gifts every year. She came back half a day late, so she must have prepared a gift for me."
"A birthday gift for you?" Tantai Mingyue was startled, but she didn't expect He Zhiqiu to give such an answer.
Qin Gengyun held Qiu Zhihe's hand and said softly: "Madam, what gift have you prepared for me? Take it out and show it to the head."
Qiu Zhihe glanced at him, the murderous intent hidden in her eyes finally disappeared, and took out a cyan top with gold embroidery from the bedside cabinet.
"Moiré Pattern Gold Thread Clothes?"
Qin Gengyun's face showed a look of "surprise", he took the clothes and sighed:
"This is protective clothing that can withstand ordinary magic weapons. Madam, where did you find it?"
Qiu Zhihe looked "shy" and said in a low voice: "I saved all the monthly salary given by the sect and bought it in Zhenyang City while I was down the mountain."
Qin Gengyun hugged her emotionally: "Madam, thank you, I like your gift very much!"
After saying that, he lowered his head and kissed Qiu Zhihe on the forehead. Qiu Zhihe exclaimed and quickly pushed her away, her cheeks flushed.
This time it was not a show, but a real shame.
She is thin-skinned, and even if she is acting, she cannot be intimate with her husband in front of outsiders.
Tantai Mingyue was also stunned. She never imagined that this harsh questioning would eventually turn into a scene of two disciples showing off their affection.
She coughed dryly and her tone finally returned to gentleness: "The sect has rules after all. Ruomei and He Zhiqiu, you should be measured and not indulge in lust, and..."
Tantai Mingyue looked at He Zhiqiu: "Return to the Divine Peak before dawn. Be careful not to be discovered in the future."
Qin Gengyun was overjoyed: "Thank you so much, Master!"
Qiu Zhihe also saluted: "Thank you, Master."
Tantai Mingyue nodded and left Ruomei's room in a flash.
At this time, a stern figure appeared not far from the small courtyard, but it was Leng Jing, the master of Jianzhong Peak. He asked Tantai Mingyue:
"Junior sister, how are you doing?"
Tantai Mingyue shook her head: "It's not them."
Leng Jing was silent for a moment, looked at her face carefully, and suddenly asked:
"Junior sister, what's wrong with you?"
Tantai Mingyue smiled: "I=It's okay. I just feel that the clues have been broken. I'm afraid it will not be easy to find out the truth about the death of the three senior brothers. When the death of senior brothers Shi and Wei are known to the outside, Zhenyang Sect will not He is no longer the leader of righteousness in the world."
Leng Jing comforted him: "Junior sister, don't worry too much. At the Feixian Grand Ceremony in half a year, as long as I, a disciple of the Zhenyang Sect, can win the first prize and get the opportunity to enter the Feixian Pavilion, he will definitely be stronger than us. Then the Zhenyang Sect will succeed us." Someone is here."
Tantai Mingyue sighed slightly: "I hope so."
Leng Jing looked at her dignified and soft profile, hesitated for a moment, and finally said:
"Junior sister, thank you very much for today's day. If it weren't for you, my heart would have been in chaos."
During the day at Danxia Peak, when Leng Jing heard Xia Qinglian's name, his inner demons emerged and his whole body trembled. Tantai Mingyue held his hand, which calmed him down.
However, Leng Jing's words at this moment were not only filled with gratitude, but also with an inexplicable softness and affection.
Tantai Mingyue seemed to have not heard anything, and said gently: "Senior Brother Leng, thank you for staying outside tonight. This is a troubled time for our sect. Please return to Jianzhong Peak as soon as possible."
Leng Jing looked at her soft but calm pretty face, with a slightly gloomy expression, and nodded: "Okay, junior sister, be careful, I'm leaving."
"good."
Leng Jing reluctantly left, and Tantai Mingyue looked at his retreating back, standing on the edge of the moonless cliff, silent for a long time, and murmured:
"I'm sorry, Senior Brother Leng, I am no longer worthy of you."
In Ruomei's room.
"Husband, why don't you listen to me! I'm angry! You. Uh-huh."
"Husband! Don't think that I can forgive you every time you do this. Did you know that it was dangerous just now?"
Snapped!
"Oops? Husband, what are you doing?"
"Madam, I have long said that if you hide anything from me again, you will not be lenient and you will accept the punishment of your husband!"
Bang bang bang!
"Ouch?! Qin Gengyun, do you really dare to do this to me?! Ah! Husband, I have the wrong body!"
