"Who said I was dead?"
Lingqing's head suddenly emerged from the grass, startling the two Shanhe Gang members.
One of them cursed loudly, "You bastard, pretending to be a Taoist priest to entertain your grandpa, are you new here? Why haven't I seen you before?"
Lingqing touched her nose. No one had seen her for a long time, so she spread rumors everywhere.
You Ziji and Mei Yi also walked out, leaving only Lingyue missing.
Mei Yi asked the two of them: "Have you seen Ling Qing's appearance after chasing him for so long?"
When the Shanhe Gang saw two more people appearing behind Ling Qing, they felt that they were at a disadvantage, and their tempers immediately calmed down a lot, and they smiled sarcastically.
"We are all following behind to join in the fun. We don't know what Ling Qing looks like, but we have seen him twice from a distance."
You Ziji raised his chin and looked arrogant, "I thought you had really come into contact with Ling Qing. He is not dead now, but his condition is not very good. Who is the commander in charge here? We have important things. Report to him."
"Brothers, if you tell me what's going on, I can go and report it."
Mei Yi snorted coldly, "Humph, of course that's where Ling Qing is. If you don't hurry up, are you trying to grab the credit?"
You Ziji and Ling Qing made fierce expressions at the right time and unleashed the pressure of their powerful cultivation, which frightened the two gang members until their legs weakened and they no longer dared to play tricks.
"What are you three brothers doing? We are all a family. Come with me."
After that, the two led the way and led You Ziji and the others to the temporary gathering place of the Shanhe Gang.
They chased Lingqing all the way, and were later scattered by the fire bird group and fled. They had no preparation. They just found some dry branches and cleared a space to light a bonfire. There was only enough space for three or two people to surround it. The others I had to find some place to rest elsewhere.
The sky is getting dark, and the enemies on the left and right are extremely tired, and they have no energy or ability to distinguish who is coming. As a result, Lingqing took the lead, and the three of them walked in swaggeringly.
The two people leading the way said: "Commander Qu, we have brought back three gang members."
Commander Qu is a tall and thick-set man. His clothes are open on both sides, revealing his solid chest. He has a heart-gouging knife on his waist, and he looks like a butcher.
"Come back as soon as you come back. Come and tell me what this is for. Just take it aside and put it in place."
His voice was rough, but a little hoarse, but because he had roared in the forest just now, he gathered more than a dozen people nearby. Otherwise, the gang members who fled here would have been running around and died without knowing how.
The two of them were intimidated by Commander Qu's momentum and were so cowardly that they were speechless for a long time. You Ziji was anxious as he waited, so he stepped forward and said, "Report to the commander, I have something important to report."
Commander Naqu didn't take it seriously, "What important thing can be more important than rest now? What, could it be that the Fire Bird is chasing after me again?"
You Ziji took a step forward and was about to speak when he saw two strong men beside Commander Qu suddenly stand up and protect him, obviously to prevent You Ziji from taking the opportunity to make a sneak attack.
Commander Qu's eyes flashed, and his body movements were slightly guarded. You Ziji quickly took a step back, cupped his hands and said, "We found the specific location of Ling Qing."
"I don't like your attitude. The Shanhe Gang is a place of orderly hierarchy. I hope you can remember this in the future." Qu Tong took the lead and commented on You Ziji before going on to talk about Ling Qing's trace, "He is here Just tell me where it is, and then leave."
You Ziji obviously did not take Commander Qu's warning seriously, "Don't you want to catch him personally?"
Commander Qu narrowed his eyes and said in a much stiffer tone, "That's all I want to do. Do you think Ling Qing is a chicken, duck or goose? You can arrest him if you want."
You Ziji showed a confident smile, "Commander, please don't get excited. Lingqing just escaped from a battle with the Fire Birds. We can save a lot of trouble by dealing with him now."
Commander Qu's eyes lit up, his body leaned forward, and his tone was no longer cold and stiff as before, "Is he injured?"
When the surrounding gang members heard the commotion, they all came over excitedly, waiting for You Ziji to reveal the answer.
You Ziji held back his smile and said, "He was not injured, but he came here directly, saving you the trouble of looking for him. Do you think this saves you trouble?"
"Mom!"
"Run!"
The crowd immediately exploded. They had been frightened to death and had no idea of resistance.
Commander Qu's face turned black and he took out his heart-cutting knife, "Good boy, if you dare to tease me, let's see how Ling Qing saves you!"
He reversed his wrist and adjusted it, aiming the tip of the knife at You Ziji's heart. Before the knife came out, his body shot out like a cannonball, hitting the direction of You Ziji and the others.
In an instant, You Ziji fired three palms in a row, hitting Commander Qu, and something like grease appeared on his surface, which melted all of You Ziji's attacks, and there was also a certain delay effect. You Ziji could only hit three palms at most. There is no time to do other actions.
If this was confirmed, You Ziji would probably fall apart. The heart-cutting knife was probably not used to make up for the damage, but to deal with Ling Qing.
Mei Yi stood behind You Ziji. This was the first time he faced the pressure of a profound master. His face turned pale and he even lost all reaction.
Fortunately, Lingqing took action in time and put a hand on Commander Qu's shoulder, preventing him from moving forward. If Ling Qing hadn't reached a higher level, he might have wasted a lot of effort if he tried to force him to stop.
Commander Qu didn't stop, and his attacks came one after another. The heart-cutting knife finally got out of the way, revealing Commander Qu's body, and stabbed Ling Qing's throat.
This move was premeditated, taking half the initiative, and was as fast as lightning, and ordinary people couldn't react at all.
Just as he was about to succeed, a bolt of lightning suddenly appeared and hit Commander Qu, making him stagger.
It was the Spring Thunder Sword Qi used by Ling Qing with the Qingyang Flying Fire Sword Technique.
The fat covering the surface of Commander Qu's body suddenly boiled, blocking most of the sword energy, and he was only slightly injured. You Ziji saw the opportunity and took action, holding a ball of Samadhi True Fire in his pocket.
The real fire burned violently when it touched the grease, and the fire was extremely strong, forcing the surrounding gang members who wanted to support them to retreat.
Commander Qu was horrified and wanted to use his true energy to extinguish the flames, but the flames only got bigger and bigger. He had no choice but to remove most of his own oil and separate it with the Samadhi True Fire.
As a result, the grease is weak and the protective power is greatly reduced. There is no suspense in this battle.
All the gang members also saw the situation clearly and fled one after another.
However, a shout was heard in the distance, and the escaped gang members were driven back again.
It turned out that Lingyue had been hiding nearby, waiting for this moment to block all the monks. She held the red feather fan in her hand and drew a circular wall of fire, wrapping everything in it.
"Taoist Master Lingqing, we no longer pose a threat. Do you really want to kill everyone here and commit murder?"
Lingyue didn't expect the people of the Shanhe Gang to be so shameless. Her eyes were slightly red and she roared angrily: "When the Shanhe Gang killed my fellow sect members, why didn't you think of saving their lives? Our two factions have long been like fire and water and cannot coexist!"
Commander Qu moved his lips, trying to say that the people here were just dawdling around and there was no blood on their hands. But Ling Yue was right, this was a battle between two sects, and there was no such thing as individual good or evil. He did not refute the explanation, but just bowed his head and accepted his fate, closing his eyes in pain, unable to bear to see the tragic death of his brothers.
Lingqing was not a soft-hearted person. Just as he was about to take action to kill him, he suddenly heard a voice in the air, floating over the entire Tianhai Lake.
"The disciples of the two factions immediately stopped fighting and conserved their strength to return to the sect..."
Everyone in the Shanhe Gang was talking about it, and Commander Qu showed a hopeful look. They might be able to survive. But then I thought about it, my life and death depended on Ling Qing's thoughts, so why would they give up a way out?
If the two parties change their perspective, Taoist Priest Tianyuguan who is caught elsewhere will definitely be killed by his colleagues.
Lingyue looked at Lingqing nervously, "Senior brother..."
Lingqing knew what Lingyue meant. These people couldn't be let go, but what they could do should not only be revenge, but also rescue. Lingqing carefully identified the sounds coming from the sky.
"It seems to be Uncle Fengxuan?"
"Great, Uncle Fengxuan is here to pick us up."
"To be able to achieve this level, he should be promoted to the Moon-Watching Realm. It is really a blessing for me, Tianyu Guan." Lingqing did not kill but thought about it, and kept chanting, "Wangyue Realm, Wangyue..."
He clapped his hands and said, "Junior sister, I have an idea. Moon-watching monks can blend with the heaven and earth. You must have used this method to find my location."
Lingyue still didn't understand, "Then what should we do?"
Lingqing sat cross-legged on the ground and released her breath with all her strength, making contact with Zhongxuan's voice and connecting with each other.
Lingqing said to everyone, "Those who want to survive should quickly get in touch with the auras of their elders in the sky. With the supervision of the Moon Watching Realm, no one will kill again."
Upon hearing this, everyone suddenly understood and sat cross-legged on the ground to communicate with the breath of heaven. Only You Ziji and Mei Yi were left with nothing to do.
The auras of the monks here were quickly captured by two moon-watching monks, and a connection was established, fearing that the other party would kill them.
Various auras intertwined together, turning into colorful rainbow lights in the sky. The monks everywhere saw the strange phenomena in the sky and imitated them one after another. Soon, the monks of the Shanhe Gang stopped under the supervision of Feng Xuan. Chase, slowly retreated.
Feng Xuan and You Li looked disgusted at each other, and each chose a place to wait for the monks in the sect to arrive.
Lingqing opened her eyes and stood up, "Uncle Master is waiting at the villa. Let's go there quickly. Maybe the injured fellow student needs our help."
"That's great, we don't have to separate." Mei Yi said with a smile.
"You are not a monk from Tianyu Temple, why are you so happy?"
Lingyue's words silenced Mei Yi. After passing the crisis, he was still just a casual cultivator and was not the same person as Tianyu Guan.
Seeing that Mei Yi was in a low mood, Lingyue was a little at a loss and just comforted: "We have been through thick and thin together, and we will naturally remain good friends in the future."
You Ziji understood Mei Yi's thoughts and said, "Brother Mei, your conduct must be seen by all Taoist brothers Lingqing. Why don't you go to Tianyu Temple to learn from your master?"
"How good is that? Tianyu Guan is a famous family. How could I be accepted by someone with an unclean background?"
Lingyue also realized at this moment that Mei Yi was depressed because she had no good place to go. She stepped forward and patted his shoulder and said:
"Don't worry, as long as my senior brother and I help you talk, you will definitely be able to get started. Right, senior brother?"
Lingqing also liked this young man very much and said, "Of course, I have seen the character of Mei Yi with my own eyes. I can definitely go in. But do you have any elders in your family? Do you need to inform him?"
Mei Yi said repeatedly: "I am the only one in the family. I don't want to become a disciple. As long as I can get a cleaning position in Tianyu Temple, I will be satisfied."
You Ziji rolled his eyes, "With your senior brother's protection and a little more imagination, you might be able to become a true disciple."
