Mu Qing grabbed the Spirit Sea Elixir and Heart Protection Elixir and stuffed them into her mouth. She then crossed her legs and closed her eyes to recuperate.
"You guys continue to cultivate too."
Qin Feiyang said to Fatso and the others before calming down to recuperate his qi ocean.
At the same time!
Main Pagoda!
Elder Wu sat in the main hall with his eyes closed. He seemed to be resting but his expression was anxious.
Buzz!
Suddenly …
The image crystal in his arms buzzed and vibrated.
He hurriedly took it out and channeled his Battle Qi into it, causing a figure to appear.
It was none other than the High Priest of the Sky Scorpion tribe!
At this moment, the High Priest's old face was extremely dark.
Seeing that …
Elder Wu's heart skipped a beat. He waved his hand and the doors of the main hall closed quickly.
He then looked at the High Priest and asked, "Why do you look so pale? Did something happen?"
"Yes."
"They managed to escape."
The High Priest nodded.
"What?"
Elder Wu suddenly stood up and said angrily, "Didn't we agree that as long as I deceived them, I would ensure that they would never return?"
"Initially, there was no problem. However, at the critical moment, a mysterious person suddenly appeared and saved them."
"Ming-er was also severely injured by that person. We don't know if he's dead or alive."
"The leader said that you have to find a way to get rid of them as soon as possible."
The High Priest said in a deep voice with undisguised killing intent.
"That's impossible."
"I deceived them. You guys didn't have the ability to make them stay."
"I've already repaid the favor I owe you guys. I won't help you anymore."
Elder Wu shook his head.
"You won't help?"
"You have to think carefully. They already know that you're our accomplice."
"When they return to the Pill Pagoda, they'll definitely expose you. When Liu Xingfeng finds out, do you think you'll be able to survive?"
"Even if Liu Xingfeng doesn't pursue the matter, the upper echelons of the Pill Pagoda won't allow someone who harmed their disciples to continue staying in the Pill Pagoda."
The High Priest sneered.
Elder Wu's face darkened.
"Right now, we're on the same boat. If you help us, it's equivalent to helping yourself."
"I also promise you that as long as you can get rid of them, we won't owe each other anything from now on."
The High Priest said.
"Let me think."
Elder Wu said weakly. He turned off the image crystal and sat on the armchair, looking extremely haggard.
…
Time flew by.
An hour passed.
Inside the castle!
Qin Feiyang was the first to open his eyes.
Not only had his Qi Sea been repaired, but his injuries had also healed.
"Are you done?"
He looked at Mu Qing and asked.
Mu Qing opened her eyes and stood up. "It's about time."
A cold light flashed in Qin Feiyang's eyes as he said, "Then let's go back!"
Mu Qing nodded as a strong murderous intent filled the space between his brows.
"Wait."
But at this moment.
Lu Hong opened her beautiful eyes and looked at the two of them.
"What is it?"
Qin Feiyang and the other man looked at her suspiciously.
Lu Hong took out the Image Crystal and said with a smile, "I have recorded your conversation with Guo Ming."
"What?"
Mu Qing was stunned. He looked at Lu Hong and said, "Don't tell me you also recorded the conversation that was destroyed last time?"
"Do you have a problem with that?"
Lu Hong asked.
Mu Qing's mouth twitched violently. He turned to Qin Feiyang and said seriously, "I like her. Can you give her to me?"
"Uh!"
Qin Feiyang was stunned.
Fatso and the others also opened their eyes and looked at Mu Qing in a daze.
"Ahem!"
Mu Qing coughed and said awkwardly, "I think you have misunderstood. I like her attentiveness, and I happen to lack a maid …"
"Get lost!"
Before Mu Qing finished speaking, Qin Feiyang and the others shouted almost at the same time.
"Do you know Lu Hong's position in our hearts?"
"Fat Lord, let me tell you, she is our little princess!"
"How dare you say that you want her to be your maid? Are you looking for a beating?"
Fatso and Wolf King said. Their fierce eyes made Mu Qing a little scared.
Hearing this, Lu Hong's eyes couldn't help but heat up.
She really didn't expect that she had such a high position in everyone's hearts.
Little princess, what an honor!
Qin Feiyang also glanced at Mu Qing and said lightly, "Watch your words in the future. Don't get beaten up without knowing the reason."
"Ha!"
Mu Qing scratched his head and laughed dryly.
"Asking for a beating."
"I can't control the Primitive Force in my body. Hurry up and take him out."
Wolf King waved his claws and said impatiently.
Qin Feiyang rolled his eyes and looked at Lu Hong with a smile, "Well done. Now we don't have to be afraid of Elder Wu's sophistry."
After saying that.
Qin Feiyang waved his hand and left the ancient castle with Mu Qing. Then, he took out the Qiankun Bag that Elder Wu gave them and took out the only portal.
Clang!
Battle Qi surged and the portal quickly opened. The two of them stepped in one after another.
The next moment.
The two of them landed in the main hall.
The door of the main hall was still closed and Elder Wu was still sitting on the armchair.
Sensing the aura of the two of them, Elder Wu suddenly opened his eyes and two cold rays of light burst out.
"What's wrong?"
"Do you still want to kill me?"
Qin Feiyang and Mu Qing looked at each other and looked at Elder Wu with cold eyes.
Boom!
Before he finished speaking.
A terrifying Sacred Force rushed toward Qin Feiyang and Mu Qing.
At the same time.
Elder Wu suddenly stood up, his eyes flashing with killing intent.
"It seems that I really want to kill you."
Qin Feiyang laughed.
Elder Wu didn't say anything or do anything. He just looked at the two of them.
Mu Qing sneered. "If you want to do it, hurry up. Otherwise, you won't have the chance."
"Sigh!"
A moment later.
Elder Wu sighed helplessly and returned to the armchair. He also withdrew his Sacred Force.
"Hmm?"
Qin Feiyang and Mu Qing looked at each other, their eyes full of suspicion.
What was wrong with this person?
Why didn't he kill them with such a good opportunity?
"You can leave!"
"As for this matter, you can tell Divine Envoy Liu or even report it to the Chief Tower Master. I won't deny it."
"And this has nothing to do with the Scorpion Tribe. It was my idea."
Elder Wu said.
"What's going on?"
The two of them looked at each other.
Qin Feiyang looked at him suspiciously and suddenly asked, "Elder, is there something you can't say?"
"No."
Elder Wu shook his head.
Qin Feiyang said, "Then why did you help Guo Ming to harm us? Why did you have to take the blame alone? "
Elder Wu pondered for a while and said, "Now that things have come to this, is it important?"
"In my opinion, it is indeed not important."
"Because I won't let go of anyone who wants to harm me."
"But you are different."
"Just now, you clearly had the chance to kill us, but instead of doing so, you took the initiative to take the blame. It can be seen that you are a kind old man."
"So, if you are willing to tell me the reason, maybe I will forgive you."
Qin Feiyang said.
Elder Wu was silent.
Qin Feiyang raised his eyebrows and said, "Guo Ming is narrow-minded. Is it worth sacrificing yourself for him?"
There was a hint of anger in his tone.
"I know better than you what kind of person Guo Ming is."
"But I have no choice. I owe the Scorpion Tribe a favor. I have to repay it."
Elder Wu sighed.
"What favor?"
Qin Feiyang asked.
Elder Wu fell silent again.
"Old man, what's wrong with you?"
"You finally have a chance to turn over a new leaf. Why don't you know how to cherish it?"
"Even if not for yourself, think about your family!"
"If you die, what will happen to your family?"
Mu Qing said angrily.
Elder Wu's gaze trembled. He looked up at Qin Feiyang and Mu Qing and finally sighed. "I owe them my life."
Qin Feiyang and Mu Qing looked at each other and did not say anything, waiting for him to continue.
Elder Wu lowered his head again, seemingly lost in his memories.
A moment later.
Elder Wu slowly recounted.
It turned out that when Elder Wu was young, he accidentally barged into the Scorpion Mountain Range in search of medicinal herbs and killed several members of the Scorpion Tribe.
At that time, Elder Wu was still very weak. Against the Scorpion Tribe, which was full of experts, he did not have any power to resist.
Elder Wu thought that he would definitely die, but he did not expect the leader of the Scorpion Tribe to let him go.
And the so-called favor was the favor of not killing him.
"So that's the case."
The two of them came to a realization.
"That's not right!"
"The Scorpion Tribe is one of the ten super tribes of the Central Divine Kingdom and is famous. Why would you barge into their territory and kill their people?"
Mu Qing frowned.
"To be honest, I'm actually from one of the nine regions like you."
"It was the Pagoda Master of the ninth region who recommended me to enter the main pagoda."
"And I had just entered the Central Divine Kingdom and did not know that it was the Scorpion Tribe's territory."
Elder Wu sighed.
"I see!"
Qin Feiyang and Mu Qing looked at Elder Wu with complicated expressions.
Mu Qing said telepathically, "Should we kill him or not?"
"Forget it!"
"He's not a heinous person."
"Moreover, the real mastermind is the Scorpion Tribe."
Qin Feiyang pondered for a moment and said.
"Alright."
Mu Qing nodded and looked at Elder Wu. "We won't pursue this matter and won't mention it to anyone."
"You really won't pursue it?"
Elder Wu was stunned and somewhat in disbelief.
Mu Qing said again, "However, you'd better not have any contact with the Scorpion Tribe."
Elder Wu was overjoyed. He stood up and said gratefully, "Thank you. Don't worry, I've already repaid my debt. I won't bother with them anymore."
"That's good."
"Return the Image Crystal and Cosmos Bags to us!"
Mu Qing said.
"Alright."
Elder Wu took out their Cosmos Bags and Image Crystals and returned them to them.
The two checked their Cosmos Bags and confirmed that nothing was missing. Mu Qing smiled faintly and said, "What about our test?"
"You must pass."
Elder Wu laughed heartily and took out two tokens from his bosom, handing them over to the two of them.
The tokens were the size of a baby's palm and were completely black. The front was blank and had a flame totem on it.
Elder Wu said, "Engrave your names and you'll officially become disciples of the main pagoda."
The two raised their arms at the same time and Battle Qi surged. They engraved their names on the front of the tokens.
"Here's your clothes."
Elder Wu took out two more Cosmos Bags and handed them to Qin Feiyang and Mu Qing. Then, he said, "You can go to the first pagoda. As for the alchemy room, you'll have to find the disciplinary elder of the first pagoda to arrange it for you."
"Thank you."
The two cupped their fists and thanked him. Then, they turned and walked toward the door.
"Thank you."
Elder Wu's grateful voice came from behind them.
