Si Qing said with a sunken face, "Yanying, are you just going to let him run his mouth here?"
Gu Yanying had been watching the show with great interest, so she could not help but stand up when she heard that. "Why must we dwell on such minor details on such a joyous occasion?"
"Commander Gu? My disciples were brutally murdered by the Moon Devil. Is that just a minor detail? "
"Hehe, it was a slip of the tongue." Gu Yanying said. The Moon Devil who brutally murdered your disciples is standing right in front of you, so why must you glare at me?
"I won't stop until I'm satisfied with the outcome!" E Dan's face was twisted.
"What do you want? Why don't you tell me?"
Li Qingshan knew what he had done upstairs was rather inappropriate. Now that E Dan had a handle on him, he would never relent so easily. Even if Gu Yanying wanted to protect him, it would not be that easy.
"You can only atone for your sins by colluding with daemons with your death. On this joyous occasion, I just happen to need your head as a blood sacrifice!" E Dan took a step forward. His aura was like that of an ancient ferocious beast. The Golden Core cultivators all found it hard to breathe.
At this moment, a black line appeared on the horizon. The black line spread rapidly, and a swathe of dark clouds arrived, turning the clear skies into drizzling rain in a single moment.
A scarlet figure pierced through the clouds, speeding over with a trail of wind and fire.
"Flying is not allowed in the sky above the marquis' estate!" Caretaker Zheng flew over to receive him. He was filled with both surprise and fury. He had just been utterly humiliated, so he wanted to see which ignorant person dared to provoke him. Did they really think that the caretaker did not have a temper?
However, when he saw the newcomer's appearance, his eyes suddenly narrowed. The Moon Devil!
His scarlet hair fluttered in the wind, and his appearance was peerlessly handsome. He smiled wickedly, and the two words "North Moon" were engraved on the pair of horns on his head. Apart from the Moon Devil, who else could it be?
Manager Zheng's bellyful of rage was immediately mostly extinguished, and for a moment, he didn't know if he should attack the Celestial Artifact in his hand. This moment of hesitation allowed North Moon to flash past him, and North Moon didn't even glance at him.
"North Moon, how dare you …" "Fellow Daoists, let's attack together and take down this monster!"
Northmoon arrived on the Soaring Clouds terrace in a flash, and with a series of rustles, all the Golden Core cultivators stood up. Their bodies flickered with light of various colours as they drew their arcane artifacts, gazing at the striding Northmoon cautiously. No one paid any more attention to Li Qingshan.
Only Gu Yanying lowered her head and chuckled. Si Bao asked curiously, "Sister, what's wrong?"
"Oh, nothing!"
Li Qingshan sent her a voice transmission. "Instead of relying on others, it's better to rely on yourself!"
North Moon didn't look at the Golden Core cultivators on either side. From the moment he stepped onto the Flying Cloud Platform, he had been staring straight at Si Qing. He had a warm smile on his face as he walked to Si Qing's side and wrapped his arm around his neck in a familiar manner. "Little brother Si Qing, I've come to congratulate you!"
Si Qing's body stiffened, and he looked at Jia Zhen. Now was the best time to kill North Moon!
Jia Zhen shook his head slightly. North Moon didn't use any methods to hide his aura, but the aura he was showing right now didn't seem very strong. He was clearly telling them on purpose that this wasn't his main body.
Furthermore, he didn't even have a hundred treasures pouch on him, let alone the Water God Seal. That was why he dared to be so fearless. If he attacked now, he would only be able to kill an insignificant clone and completely become enemies with North Moon. All his previous efforts would be in vain.
Si Qing took a deep breath and smiled. "Fellow North Moon, you're here!"
"Why are you being so polite? Aren't we allies? Of course I have to come and congratulate you on such a joyous occasion! Didn't you say a few days ago that you were going to invite me over? Calling me Fellow Daoist North Moon is too unfamiliar. Just call me A 'Yue, and I'll call you A' Qing! "
North Moon laughed aloud as he patted Si Qing's shoulder. With the shrewdness that Si Qing had developed from his struggles against the princes in the Dragon province, the veins on his forehead bulged.
The Golden Core cultivators all had strange expressions on their faces. They couldn't even use the magic treasures in their hands, and they didn't know if they should withdraw their protective spiritual light. They stood there awkwardly and thought to themselves,
"So Prince Si Qing is so familiar with the Moon Devil? "Eh, this can also be considered as Prince Si Qing's extraordinary means and astonishing charm!"
With a swoosh, Gu Yanying opens her jade folding fan and covers the lower half of her face, but her eyes are full of smiles.
"Come, come, come. I've already written the congratulatory words. What do you think?"
North Moon put his arm around Si Qing's shoulder and made his way over to the terrace, pointing at the sky.
Si Qing raised his head and saw a row of shining, golden words appear in the sky shrouded by dark clouds. This was the effect of sunlight seeping through the cracks in the clouds.
The other Golden Core cultivators followed him out as well, all raising their heads. It was not just the Soaring Clouds terrace either. The cultivators from the various prefectures of the entire Ruyi commandery all adopted the same posture. As a matter of fact, all the people in the commandery city raised their heads as they watched this rare sight.
The words on the cloud said, "Prince Si Qing possesses boundless powers. He is accomplished in both literature and martial arts, and he has blessed the common people. For thousands of years, he will unite the world." There was even a dash at the bottom, which read, "From the North Moon".
Si Qing laughed aloud. "Then thank you for your auspicious words, A 'Yue."
"Hehe, you're welcome!" North Moon waved his hand at the sky, and the clouds rapidly closed up, producing another row of words. "Long live the friendship between humans and daemons! We want peace, not war! "
The cultivators all looked at one another. They felt like the Moon Devil's reputation was terrifying, but his train of thought aligned with theirs. Speaking of which, ever since the North Moon heavily injured the Daemon Commanders that day, the daemons of the Ruyi commandery had quietened down a lot. The great war that was about to erupt actually settled down miraculously.
If the North Moon could truly reach an alliance with the Marquis of Ruyi, Si Qing, then they could avoid many pointless wars. They all agreed with Si Qing a little more.
Through the eyes of his mirror clone, Li Qingshan met Si Qing's gaze. He smiled inside, If you want to endure and deceive me, then I'll let you endure and deceive me to your heart's content. You'll have to accept my deep friendship whether you want to or not.
Si Qing continued to smile, but he was furious inside. This damned wretched daemon is clearly playing along with my own scheme! He's forcing me to admit that we're allies in front of everyone, but calm down. Now's not the time to turn against him!
That's exactly what I'm thinking, A 'Yue! We might be of a different race, but we're still fellow cultivators who walk the path of cultivation …
"Fellow cultivators are nothing. We hit it off the moment we met, so why don't we just become brothers here?"
"Ah!" Si Qing was surprised. What do you mean become brothers? You wretched daemon, you can go die!
"What, you're not willing? Don't tell me you lied to me the other day?" North Moon's face suddenly sank slightly.
"Of course not. However, as a prince, I need the imperial family's permission to become brothers with someone."
North Moon's face immediately cleared up, and he began to laugh. "I see. Though, as a forthright man, I don't care about these empty formalities. You just need to get that imperial family or whatever to agree to it sooner. My dear brother, I'm a little older than you, so I'll just be frank and call myself your foolish brother, hahahaha!"
The group returned to the Soaring Clouds terrace. North Moon released Si Qing's neck and made his way over to Gu Yanying. He leaned over and placed his hand on the table, saying lovingly, "Yanying, you're here too!"
Gu Yanying smiled without saying anything. She said secretly, "Li Qingshan, don't forget what you promised!"
"Tsk, how boring!"
North Moon straightened up and turned around. He asked, "A 'Dan, are you talking about beauties? Get them up here. We'll have a good look at them. "
E Dan was taken aback before realising that A 'Dan was calling him. "The beauties are coming right up!"
North Moon squeezed into a table with Si Qing without holding back. Suddenly, he frowned and pointed at Li Qingshan who stood in the middle. "Who are you? Don't stand there like a pillar. Go away, go away. Hmm? You look a little familiar. I saw you upstairs the other day, right? Are you Li Qingshan? "
"That's right." Li Qingshan bowed slightly and thought to himself, Is this a monologue or a crosstalk?
North Moon said, "What are you standing here for? With your cultivation, you don't have the right!"
Li Qingshan said, "I was summoned by His Highness the prince. He said that I colluded with daemons and daemons upstairs the other day and killed a few of fellow E Dan's disciples."
Everyone's gazes immediately gathered on E Dan. Just earlier, Li Qingshan's crime was still colluding with North Moon, but in the blink of an eye, North Moon had come to form an alliance with Si Qing. If they were really talking about colluding with wretches, who was it that was colluding with wretches right now?
"Li Qingshan, shut your mouth!" E Dan could only suffer in silence. He could not voice his bitterness.
"Hmm? Something like that happened? A Dan, you still can't forget it! I was the one who killed him, so if you have anything to say, you can directly tell me. If you don't feel like venting, I'll let you punch me three times! "Northmoon raised an eyebrow and pulled open his clothes, revealing his bare chest.
"Hahaha, you've misunderstood. Why would I care about such a small matter? I just don't like the look of this brat."
"That's good. Let's have a toast, and let bygones be bygones!" North Moon raised his wine cup and clinked it with E Dan's, downing it in one gulp. He then said rather impatiently to Li Qingshan, "There's nothing else for you to do. Hurry up and leave. Right, Haitang said that she wants me to thank you!"
Silently, he said to Si Qing, "What a coincidence. I left in too much of a hurry today and didn't bring anything. Brother, what do you have? Just give him a couple of things and have him leave quickly!"
"You're clearly afraid that we'll kill your clone, so you purposely didn't bring anything!"
Si Qing ground his teeth in hatred, but he smiled. "That's easy!" He took out the black hoop from his sumeru ring and passed it to North Moon. North Moon picked it up and fiddled around with it. He thought of something. This isn't an arcane artifact, but a demonic artifact! Although the demonic nature was hidden extremely well, it could not fool his senses as he practised the Demon Suppression Statuary.
Sure enough, that bastard Si Qing was up to no good. Demonic artifacts can only be used by demonfolk. If regular cultivators refined them without any knowledge, it was very likely for the demonic nature to enter their bodies and cause them to suffer from qi deviation! Giving it to me right now is the best.
North Moon casually tossed the black hoop to Li Qingshan. "Take it!"
Li Qingshan said, "I can't accept a reward without doing anything. I can't accept this!"
North Moon immediately became displeased. "You're bold enough to turn down something I've given away? Don't tell me you're still dreaming! "
