Hearing this, Nangong Junze took a deep breath and said, "You'd better be like this."
After leaving these words, Nangong Junze left.
Zhongli Wuyuan sat on the chair, his eyelashes twitching slightly. Nangong Qingqing's smile appeared in his mind. He couldn't tell whether he really had a good impression of Nangong Qingqing, but he was sure that he Very concerned about her indeed.
"Qingqing..."
…
Night falls.
The two women who lived in the same courtyard as Nangong Qingqing had fallen asleep, but Nangong Qingqing was meditating in the room.
As the night grew darker, Nangong Qingqing suddenly heard a slight movement outside. She immediately opened her eyes and looked outside warily.
She quickly got out of bed, put on a coat, then opened the door and went out.
She scanned the scene in the yard alertly and found nothing unusual. Just as she was about to return to her room, she suddenly heard a painful groan.
"who?!"
Nangong Qingqing's eyes suddenly became sharp. Just when she was about to go behind the rockery to investigate, a figure suddenly appeared on her own initiative.
When she saw the person clearly, her eyes changed slightly.
"Why are you injured?" Nangong Qingqing quickly approached, subconsciously took his hand and looked at the knife wound on his arm. Blood was oozing from a deep gash.
When Nangong Qingqing was about to ask, from the corner of her eye, she caught a glimpse of several men with sacks covering their heads behind the rockery. They were bound by the formation and struggling wildly.
Nangong Qingqing was slightly shocked: "This is..."
"I'm disturbing your rest." Zhongli Wuyuan's tone was calm, but extremely seductive.
Nangong Qingqing was stunned for a moment.
Soon, she almost guessed the whole story.
Her heart seemed to be tugged and touched. She pursed her lips and asked, "Why didn't you tell me in advance? In this case, I can cooperate with you to deal with them."
You might not get hurt...
Zhongli Wuyuan smiled and said, "You don't need to do anything about these scum."
"But..." Nangong Qingqing looked at him worriedly.
In order to comfort her, Zhongli Wuyuan whispered: "I promised them that I will protect you well."
These words fell into Nangong Qingqing's ears. Her fingers curled up slightly, and her heart seemed to be pricked by a needle. It turned out that the care he gave her was only that of his companions.
fair enough.
Nangong Qingqing lowered her eyes, and she nodded with a soft 'hmm'.
Zhongli Wuyuan noticed that her mood seemed to be getting lower, just when she was about to say something.
But she was interrupted by her voice: "Zhongli, what should we do with them? If people from the sect find out, we will be in trouble."
"Don't worry." Zhongli Wuyuan was slightly stunned and continued: "I will teleport them out."
With that said, Zhongli Wuyuan teleported them out.
The two looked at each other, and Zhongli Wuyuan said uncomfortably: "If nothing happens, I will go back first."
"Wait a minute." Nangong Qingqing called him.
"Let me help you take care of your wound."
Zhongli Wuyuan lowered his eyes and glanced at his wound. It was a small injury, but he wanted to stay.
"good."
The two entered the room one after another. Nangong Qingqing first lit a lamp. In the dim light, a certain atmosphere was brought to the extreme. When Zhongli Wuyuan looked at her, her cheeks turned slightly red.
She warned herself to restrain all her emotions, took a deep breath, and then took out the sore medicine, gauze and other items from the storage space.
She helped tear open his outer sleeve and then bandaged his wound.
Nangong Qingqing was very focused at the moment.
Zhongli Wuyuan's gaze first paused at the wound bandage, and then unconsciously moved his gaze to her face, her brows and eyes were cold but also a little gentle.
His eyes gradually became as tender as water, and the corners of his lips were slightly raised, with a vague smile.
After a while, she had finished bandaging him.
Nangong Qingqing put away the gold sore medicine, gauze and other items and said, "Okay, don't touch the water these days."
When she raised her head and met Zhong Li Wuyuan's gaze, her heart trembled slightly, but when she thought of what he had said before, she looked away calmly.
At that moment, Zhongli Wuyuan felt that she had become distant and polite. He could not guess what she was thinking now, so he could only respect her attitude and thoughts. He stood up and thanked her slowly.
Then left.
Nangong Qingqing looked at his leaving figure, and after just one second, she withdrew her gaze.
She can't be sentimental, let alone have random thoughts.
It's okay to just be a companion.
That night, Nangong Qingqing spent the whole night reading, calming down his mood, and trying to make himself more rational and sober.
And that night, Zhongli Wuyuan also suffered from insomnia. He leaned against the window and looked up at the bright and flawless moon on the horizon.
He couldn't see through the moon, and the moon didn't seem to care about him.
The next day.
A big event happened at Nanmumen!
Ling Yuzhou and several other inner disciples were stripped of their clothes, leaving only their underpants, and were thrown in the center of the martial arts field. Several bloody words were carved on their chests and backs with knives: scum, lewd thieves.
All hair was shaved off.
This news spread early in the morning at Nanmu Gate.
Many disciples and even elders are discussing this gossip.
When Ling Yuzhou's male disciples woke up, they were ashamed and angry. They were so angry that they quickly put on their clothes and went to Nangong Qingqing for revenge.
Because they didn't see who the culprit was, they thought it must be Nangong Qingqing!
Ling Yuzhou was extremely angry: "This stinking bitch, I'm going to kill her!"
Another inner disciple was furious: "How dare she embarrass us and shave our heads!"
The men were so aggressive that many of the melon-eating disciples followed them, just to watch the fun.
The disciples started talking a lot: "Who is it? How dare you treat Senior Brother Ling and the others like this? In the Nanmu Sect, Senior Brother Ling is considered a bully because his father is the Sixth Elder!"
"Ling Yuzhou is a scumbag and a thief! This time we have met the iron plate!" Many female disciples said with the same hatred.
"I'm really curious about who is such a courageous person!"
"Hahaha, look, look, Ling Yuzhou and the others have lost their hair and are even uglier!"
And listening to the discussions of the disciples around him, Ling Yuzhou was so angry that he wished he could kill that bitch Nangong Qingqing!
Ling Yuzhou roared angrily: "Where are the outer disciples who came from that shabby place in Dongzhou now?!"
Hearing this, the surrounding disciples looked shocked and looked at each other.
The ones who provoked Ling Yuzhou and the others were actually the new outer disciples from Dongzhou?
This is unlikely, right? After all, how could the Dongzhou people be able to deal with Ling Yuzhou and the others if they were so weak?
An outer sect disciple pointed out the direction for Ling Yuzhou's disciples flatteringly: "Senior Brother Ling, they are branching out to the outer sect now!"
