Hearing this, the deputy leader of the Yeyou Alliance glanced back at Lin Quan casually, and said with a joking smile: "What? Brother Lin sometimes can't sit still?"
Lin Quan sneered and said with a hint of truth in his words: "I just want to remind you, dear brother, that the Mesha Ancient City Temple is the leader's hard work for many years. If it is destroyed in your hands, you should be aware of the consequences, right?"
The Three-foot Ghost King's expression suddenly changed. Although he felt unhappy in his heart, he pretended to be respectful and said: "Of course the alliance leader's many years of foundation cannot be destroyed in my hands... But Brother Lin underestimates me... just those few things. How can the young boy, the little girl, and a bunch of rabble break through my temple!"
When Lin Quan heard this, he smiled secretly in his heart: He really doesn't know how to live or die! The Nangong girl and the boy named Qin are not inferior to you and me in martial arts, and there are a thousand elite soldiers who have been on the battlefield... Can these be compared to those of yours? If you want to destroy yourself, I won't accompany you to die!
Thinking of this, he laughed dryly, cupped his hands and said: "Since the deputy leader is already confident... I won't cause any trouble for you... Farewell! See you later!" After that, he walked out of the side door of the temple.
The deputy leader of the Yeyou Alliance looked at his fleeting back, snorted softly, and said to himself nonchalantly: "Huh! I don't believe that without you, I can't win against those younger generations!"
After saying that, he pushed the tea cup, stood up slowly, took off his sword from the wall, and asked the envoys and hall masters waiting to go out with him to fight.
Outside the temple, Su Qiqi and Qin Chuan were waiting for something to happen. They saw a familiar figure sneaking out from the side door of the temple. They were stunned for a moment. The two exchanged glances and followed him together.
"Qin Chuan, look, could that person be Lin Quan?" Su Qiqi stared at Lin Quan's back for a while and asked hesitantly.
Qin Chuan also took a closer look at the thin but strong figure, nodded slightly and said: "It looks like that dog thief! If I catch him, I have to beat him up!"
"Strange, why did he leave? Didn't he intend to help his allies? Or did he intend to lure the tiger away from the mountain..." Su Qiqi said to herself with some confusion.
"Hey! These despicable people must be doing it for profit! People who can't afford it without profit will definitely not care about the life and death of others if there is no benefit!" Qin Chuan said angrily.
Su Qiqi nodded in agreement, and then pulled Qin Chuan to follow for a while. Seeing that he seemed to have no intention of interfering in the affairs of the deputy leader of the Yeyou Alliance, he returned to the outside of the temple, arranged his troops, and fought with the bandits of the Yeyou Alliance. war.
For a time, there was a commotion inside and outside the city. Here they set up ladders, climbed city walls, and crashed into city gates; there they shot rockets, rolled logs, and threw rocks. They all tried their best to beat the enemy in a blinding manner.
About a stick of incense later, the deputy leader of the Yeyou Alliance underestimated the enemy. Not only was he injured, but he also lost hundreds of his men, and had to break out in a hurry.
Su Qiqi and others won a great victory, captured most of the gangsters, took back the food and grass hidden in the underground warehouse of the temple, and rescued Zheng Miao and Ouyang Qi. The only regret is that the deputy leader of the Yeyou Alliance escaped in the chaos.
However, Su Qiqi and Qin Chuan were still very optimistic. After all, they had won the battle, recovered the robbed food and grass, rescued the hostages, and successfully completed the mission.
Reinforcements led by Nangong Yu and Chief Lin arrived in time, took over the captured Yeyou League bandits, and sent people to further search for any unidentified fish hidden in the ancient city.
After thoroughly cleaning up the battlefield, Su Qiqi, Qin Chuan and others took the escorts and soldiers back to the escort bureau to hold a celebration banquet to reward themselves and their friends who had been in trouble together.
On the other side, the deputy leader of the Yeyou League was injured and fled back to his old lair in Qilian Mountain. As soon as he returned to his usual room and simply bandaged the wound, a minion came to inform him that the leader asked him to go to the meeting hall.
He couldn't help but feel uneasy. If the alliance leader came to him so late, it would probably be up to no good! However, he did not dare to disobey the alliance leader, so he had no choice but to bite the bullet and follow the minions to the meeting hall.
As soon as he entered the hall, he felt something was wrong in the atmosphere. The leader of the Yeyou Alliance stood in front of the incense altar with his back to him. Several protectors and venerables stood aside with expressionless faces. One of the guardians had a good relationship with him. When he saw him coming in, he showed a nervous look on his face and gave him a look, indicating that he should be careful about his words and actions.
He immediately guessed that the leader of the alliance probably knew that he secretly colluded with Zheng Shangshu to rob the imperial court of food and grass and embezzle the stolen goods! For a while, we can only act according to the situation. It is important to admit our mistakes first and save our lives!
Thinking of this, he cautiously walked up to the alliance leader, saluted respectfully, and said, "I see you, the alliance leader!"
The leader of Yeyou Alliance lazily turned around, looked at him steadily for a while, and said in a cold tone: "Deputy leader, I thought you weren't coming back?"
The deputy leader's body trembled involuntarily, and he stammered with a flattering smile: "How can it be possible... I don't dare!"
The leader of the Yeyou Alliance sneered, stared at the deputy leader with sharp eyes, and said word by word: "You dare to be so good!"
When the deputy leader heard this, the hairs all over his body suddenly started to stand up. He looked around timidly, knelt down with a plop, and said in a trembling voice: "I know my mistake! Please forgive me, leader!"
The leader of the Yeyou Alliance was unmoved. He turned around and walked to sit on a chair in front of the incense altar. Then he said sternly: "The deputy leader violated the rules of the alliance, secretly colluded with others, and embezzled stolen goods... What crime should he be punished for?"
The protectors and venerables standing on both sides looked at each other in disbelief, neither of them dared to say a word.
Seeing this, the leader of the Yeyou Alliance shouted even more angrily: "Tell me what crime should be committed!"
When everyone saw that the alliance leader was really angry, someone stood up and said tremblingly: "It should be dealt with according to the alliance rules... blind the eyes, cut off the ears, abolish the martial arts... and drive out of Qilian Mountain..."
After hearing these words, the deputy leader's face turned pale and his whole body was trembling. He knows that with his current skills, he is like an ant in front of the alliance leader. If he is not careful, he will die! He doesn't want to die yet, he has to find a way to save himself!
Thinking of this, he turned his attention to the protector he had become friends with and looked at him with pleading eyes. Unfortunately, the other party avoided his gaze and did not dare to make any eye contact with him.
Seeing this, the deputy leader had no choice but to give up. Now he could only rely on himself! I need to admit my mistake first and hope that the alliance leader will see that my attitude is sincere enough and spare my life!
He raised his head to look at the Alliance Leader and begged in a low voice: "Alliance Leader! I know my mistake, please forgive me, Alliance Leader! From now on, my subordinates will only follow the Alliance Leader's lead and will not dare to make arbitrary decisions again. Please forgive me, Alliance Leader!"
The leader of the Yeyou Alliance glanced at him contemptuously, and his expression softened slightly when he saw that he seemed to really want to repent. Then he smiled faintly and said: "Forget it, remember your life first... If you do it again next time, this alliance leader will let you see what life is worse than death! Get out!"
The deputy leader breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this. He didn't bother to wipe the cold sweat from his forehead, walked backwards out of the meeting hall, returned to his room, and drank several cups of tea in a row before he calmed down a little.
