Upon hearing this, Fairy Li was infuriated.
"What? You damned girl, if you knew you were going to be in trouble, why didn't you say so earlier? If I knew you were going to be in trouble, I wouldn't have followed you out even if you beat me to death. Also, you too, since you knew you were going to be in trouble, why did you run around blindly? "
Supreme Immortal Qingqing squatted on the steps and pulled her hair with both hands. She looked extremely distressed and said, "Master only said that I'll be in trouble in recent years, but he didn't tell me it's this year or what it is. How would I know …"
"You!"
Fairy Li wanted to scold her, but she couldn't bear to do so after seeing Qingqing's appearance. She shook her head and sighed, then she said with a long face, "It's over, I'm completely done for this time. Now, almost everyone in the universe knows that I, Li Xin, have to compromise in order to survive by giving people massages and kneeling. I won't be able to hold my head up high in the future. I've also embarrassed the Changsheng Pavilion."
Thinking about this, Fairy Li was filled with regret. She thumped her chest and stomped her feet, then she sighed and said, "The sad thing is that I'm still alone and don't even have a lover. Now that something like this has happened, I'm afraid no one will be with me in this lifetime. I'll be alone for the rest of my life."
Supreme Immortal Qingqing looked up. Her originally beautiful face looked extremely haggard at this moment. She asked, "Martial Aunt, why are you still in the mood to think about this?"
"Nonsense, this is a major event in my life. If I don't think about this, what am I thinking about?!"
"Who knows how many people are out there looking for us right now?"
"What are you afraid of? Just tell them the truth and they can do whatever they want. Anyway, we didn't call Emperor You here, so it's not our fault."
"That's the truth, but … this matter has caused too much of a commotion. I'm afraid … I'm afraid that if I tell them, it'll make things worse. What if … I'm saying what if, what if something terrible really happens? Won't we become the main culprits? This responsibility is too great, and we can't bear it at all. "
"Qingqing, don't blame yourself for this. This has nothing to do with us, okay?" Fairy Li walked over and comforted him, "The matter of the Mysterious Heaven Ship has long been known by everyone in the universe. Even if you don't say it, everyone knows clearly. We weren't the only ones present at that time. Why did you foolishly cause trouble for yourself?"
"No! Martial Uncle, it's not that I want to cause trouble for myself, but … "Exalted Immortal Qing Qing said in distress," Although there were many people present at the time, they couldn't be sure of Emperor You's identity. It's the same for the people outside. Thus, the Cloud Water Sword in my hand became the key. If my guess is correct, the people outside are looking for me to make me hand over the Cloud Water Sword. As long as they can prove that the Cloud Water Sword is one of Emperor You's Five Elemental Swords, then they can prove Emperor You's identity. "
"If they want to see it, just show it to them. When you picked up the Cloud Water Sword, you didn't know that it was one of Emperor You's Five Elemental Swords. What can they do to you? I'm puzzled. What are you worried about? "
"I …" Exalted Immortal Qing Qing smiled bitterly, "I don't know what I'm worried about either."
"Wait, Qing Qing, why do I feel like you're hiding something? Don't tell me you're not planning to hand over the Cloud Water Sword for Emperor You's sake? Are you trying to hide the truth? "
"I! Martial Uncle! I'm not! "
"You're not! I already knew that something was wrong with you. Ever since Emperor You left, you didn't have any energy at all. Don't tell me you've really been mesmerized by Emperor You? Let me tell you, you better get rid of that thought as soon as possible. Now that we're in such big trouble, don't lose your head. Otherwise, you won't even know how you died. "
Exalted Immortal Qing Qing wanted to explain, but before she could, she was interrupted by Fairy Li Xin, who scolded, "Emperor You is a sinner, and a sinner that heaven and earth can't tolerate. A sinner that might cause a catastrophe. Otherwise, why do you think his appearance caused such a huge commotion? Everyone is trying to avoid him, but you actually took the initiative to lean on Emperor You. Are you tired of living?"
"Martial Uncle, what are you thinking? That's not what I meant at all."
"I don't care what you mean. In any case, you have to tell us the truth and hand over the Cloud Water Sword. Moreover, you have to publicly declare that you have nothing to do with Emperor You."
At this point, Fairy Li Xin hurriedly spat on the ground and continued, "We're not declaring that we have nothing to do with Emperor You at all, so we can't say that we have nothing to do with him. We just have to tell the truth. Now that things have come to this, we don't care about face anymore. We just have to say that we were afraid and were forced by Emperor You to give him a massage and play songs. In order to survive, we had no choice but to kneel to him."
"Martial Uncle, aren't we … being too … unrighteous?" Exalted Immortal Qing Qing frowned and said, "When we were on the Mysterious Heaven Ship, Emperor You never threatened us. We gave him a massage and played songs on our own accord. We also … took the initiative to kneel to him. He didn't hurt us …"
"Oh heavens! You're usually quite smart, but why are you so stupid now!? Do you have to make Martial Uncle lose all his face before you're satisfied? Can't you think for Martial Uncle? Martial Uncle still doesn't have a lover. If we say that we were threatened by Emperor You and had no choice but to give him a massage, Martial Uncle might lose some face, but it's not to the point of disgrace. If we say that Martial Uncle admitted defeat and gave him a massage, then Martial Uncle really won't be able to do anything in the future. We can't afford to lose that face! "
"But … but …"
"No buts! You have to say this! "
Seeing the silent Exalted Immortal Qing Qing, Fairy Li Xin comforted Qing Qing and earnestly advised, "Girl, Martial Uncle understands your thoughts. Martial Uncle has been through this before, and to tell you the truth, if it's possible, I also want to find a man like Emperor You. But the problem is … a man like Emperor You is too … too … too … how do I put it? He's standing too high, so high that we can only look up to him. Even if we really admire him, we can only admire him in our hearts."
"Just think about it in your heart, but don't take it seriously. We're not the Saintess. The Saintess can let the entire universe know that she's infatuated with Emperor You, but we can't. The three thousand Great Daos can't do anything to the Saintess, but killing people like you and me is as easy as squashing ants. So, don't have any fantasies about Emperor You, and don't get involved with him in any way. Otherwise, it'll be too late for regrets if you get into trouble."
