The next day, noon.
Sengoku's people were still in the inn. The entire inn had been booked by Sengoku and all the other guests had been chased away.
News of what happened in the palace last night had inevitably spread. If it was a normal matter, it would naturally not be leaked. However, in the middle of the palace, the meeting hall was leveled and even the king was threatened. This kind of thing could not be stopped.
Everyone in the capital was in danger and many people had even evacuated from the capital. There were more and more soldiers in the capital, causing everyone to be anxious and uneasy.
The initiator of all this, Qing, was sitting on a chair in the inn. He looked at the bed in the distance and frowned.
Lu An was on the bed and beside him were Yao and Li. Yao did not sleep the entire night and stayed by Lu An's side. The woman called Li was the same. The two of them did not leave each other's side and did not give anyone a chance to get close.
All of this was clearly seen by his eyes. In this state, Yao cared even more than that man a few months ago. If anyone said that Yao did not have any other thoughts about Lu An, he would not believe it.
Just as Qing was feeling frustrated, there was a knock on the door of the guest room. Qing was startled and a subordinate quickly went to open the door. What entered his sight was Qi!
Not only Qi, but also Qi's father Ting and more than ten people behind him. When Qing saw these people, he was overjoyed. He quickly walked over and stood in front of Ting!
"Uncle Ting!" Qing said happily.
"Nephew!" When Ting saw Qing, he smiled brightly and said, "I heard that you guys were in trouble. How are you? Are you hurt?"
"I'm fine." Qing said, "But many people were hurt. Fortunately, no one died. It's a blessing in disguise."
When Ting heard this, his face darkened. His voice was as loud as thunder as he said, "Damn those heretics. I'll capture them all and break their bones one by one!"
When he said this, Ting suddenly thought of something and asked Qing, "Where's Princess Yao? The informant said that Yao went missing. Have you found her? "
"Found her." Qing nodded and said, "They're all inside!"
"Let's go and take a look!" Ting said immediately.
Everyone entered the guest room and then the bedroom. As expected, Princess Yao was sitting on a chair beside the bed, and beside her, stood a woman he had never seen before.
Yao heard someone come in and turned to look. When she saw who it was, she stood up and greeted politely, "Uncle Ting."
"Princess!" Ting knew how to be polite and asked, "Are you alright?"
"No." Yao shook his head and said.
"As long as you're fine," Ting let out a sigh of relief. "If something had happened to you, I'm afraid your father would have come personally. I'll have to send someone back to inform them. "
Then, Ting turned to look at Li. After sizing him up, he frowned and asked loudly, "Who is this?"
Seeing the middle-aged man looking at him, Li's heart couldn't help but tremble!
If it was said that she could feel great pressure in front of the Hierarch, then she could not even think of resisting in front of this person. Just by being stared at by this man, she felt as if all the energy in her body had been sealed, and she couldn't move at all!
That feeling was as if his entire body was bound and imprisoned. If he moved, it was very likely that he would be killed!
When Qing heard this, she said, "It's one of the protectors of the heretics. She said that she was being controlled by someone. Lu An removed her control, and she sent Lu An back."
Ting frowned even more. He didn't understand the relationship between the two. Qing also understood that it was very confusing to say this, so she told Ting everything that happened last night.
As Ting listened, his face grew darker and darker. When he finished listening, he turned to look at Li and asked in a deep voice, "In other words, you're also a heretic?"
As he spoke, Li could feel the immense murderous intent coming from this man. This murderous intent caused her entire body to freeze. Zhang Ruitong couldn't move at all!
Although this murderous intent was aimed at Li, Yao could feel it too. She frowned and said in a deep voice, "Uncle Ting, she's my guest!"
With a low shout, Ting's murderous intent disappeared instantly. He looked at Princess Yao in shock. He didn't know why Princess Yao would protect a heretic.
After all, this was completely against Sengoku's principles!
However, Yao didn't care about Ting's gaze. She only said calmly, "She can tell you everything about the True God Cult, including their location and how to defend. As for the True God Cult's leader, I'm afraid he's already far away. It won't be easy for you to catch him. "
Hearing Yao's words, Ting's expression eased a little. He looked at Li and said loudly, "I'm not an unreasonable person. If you can really turn over a new leaf, that's a good thing. However, if I find out that there's anything wrong with the information you've given me, even Princess Yao won't be able to save your life! "
Hearing Ting's threat, Li's heart trembled. In the past, no one dared to speak to her like this. However, in the face of absolute power, she didn't dare to be impudent.
Following that, she told the Sengoku people about the True God Cult's underground palace, their defense methods and formations, including the True God Cult's strength. After listening to her, everyone more or less had an idea.
According to Li, only the leader of the True God Cult was a level six Heavenly Master and a level six mystical beast. The rest were all below level six. This level of strength was no threat to Ting.
"Then let's set off!" Ting turned around and said to the people behind him, "Leave a few people behind to take care of Princess Yao. The rest of you, follow me to eradicate the cult!"
"Yes!"
Soon, under Ting's command, everyone split up and left. Only four people were left behind to protect Princess Yao in the inn. Among the four, Qi was among them.
Qing had followed the team to eradicate the cult. After all, this was his expedition. Now that this mess was over, it wouldn't be right if he didn't put in more effort. On the other hand, Qi, who came with the volunteer team, didn't have such a burden. Furthermore, he came for Yao in the first place.
In the guest room, he looked at Yao, who was sitting beside Lu An. She hadn't left Lu An's side since the beginning, and he was getting more and more frustrated. Originally, when others said that he was jealous of a boy half his age, he was very angry. However, now, he knew that he was jealous.
However, he couldn't not be jealous.
Yao wasn't that old either. She was only three years older than this boy. It wasn't impossible for the two of them to be together. How could Qi just watch this develop?
When he thought of this, Qi took a deep breath and walked towards the bed. When Yao and Li heard the footsteps, they turned around and realized that Qi was already in front of them.
"Princess." Qi smiled and said gently, "I heard that you didn't sleep at all last night. Why don't you rest for a while and leave me here to take care of him?"
However, Yao shook her head slightly and said, "Thank you for your kindness. Let me do it."
Qi was startled when he heard this. His expression stiffened, but he still smiled and said, "But we don't know when he'll wake up. It's not good for you to stay like this. Why don't you go sleep for two to four hours? With me here, nothing will happen to him. "
Qi's words were reasonable. He also thought that he would be able to move Yao, but the reality was very different. Yao shook her head again and didn't say anything.
Qing had said this countless times. Even Qing couldn't persuade Yao, let alone Qi.
Qi, who was still putting on an act, suddenly frowned and revealed a displeased expression. His eyes revealed a trace of hatred as he stared at Lu An who was sleeping on the bed. Not only that, even when he looked at Yao, his eyes were still filled with hatred.
However, he hid this emotion very well. He would only reveal it when the two girls turned around. His eyes stared straight at Lu An, and he kept thinking about how he could kill this person.
Qi turned around and looked at the three people behind him. These three people were the ones who stayed here to take care of Princess Yao with him. The strength of these three people wasn't high. They were roughly equivalent to a fourth level Heavenly Master in the outside world, and they were all here to learn. With his strength, suppressing these three people was as easy as flipping his hand.
Turning his head, he looked at Lu An who was on the bed, as well as Yao and that woman. An evil thought slowly crept into his mind.
Following this evil thought, a sinister smile appeared on Qi's face.
