C192 The Atmosphere Is Tense
"Little Qi Zhuohao, why don't you keep running? Today, I will definitely take your head and offer it to all the disciples of Azure Sky Castle!"
Ann Dongying's furious shout rang out. Great Master Wangkong looked into the distance, then he retracted his gaze and chuckled, "Little benefactor, it seems like you are in big trouble!"
"Hehe! Great Master is right. These people from Azure Sky Castle have chased me for dozens of miles, but Great Master doesn't need to worry about this junior. It won't be so easy for them to kill this junior."
Qi Zhuohao replied. What he said was the truth. If they really fought, he might not be afraid of these people from the Azure Sky Castle. Also, the people of Thousand Searching Sect had also come here. Du Qingluo and the others would surely not watch him being killed by the people of Azure Sky Castle.
"Little benefactor, this old monk can't help you with this matter. You have to solve it yourself!"
Although Great Master Wangkong regarded Qi Zhuohao as a friend, he couldn't interfere in the conflicts between the various powers in Thousand Stars County. Otherwise, Myriad Buddha Temple would be plunged into chaos. That was not the result he wanted to see.
If that wasn't the case, it didn't matter what kind of grudge Qi Zhuohao had with Azure Sky Castle. As long as Great Master Wangkong spoke, the master of Azure Sky Castle would definitely let go of this grudge. Great Master Wangkong's prestige was something that even the boss of Drunken Star Tavern, Lu Zhengfeng, had to give him some face.
"Master, don't worry. This junior won't dare to trouble you with such a small matter!"
Qi Zhuohao changed the topic and continued, "Master, this junior will go and take care of it. Master, please do as you wish!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Qi Zhuohao quickly arrived in front of Du Qingluo and the others. After exchanging a few pleasantries with Du Qingluo and Qian Ling, Du Qingluo immediately interrupted Qi Zhuohao's words. She asked seriously, "Qi Zhuohao, that Ann Dongying wants to kill you. Azure Sky Castle also issued a wanted poster to kill you. What exactly is going on? "
"Poison Peak Lord, it's a long story! In short, disciple did kill the disciple of Azure Sky Castle, Hsiao Mumei."
Qi Zhuohao's answer made Du Qingluo and Jiang Mengyuan's expressions become more serious. "Qi Zhuohao, didn't you guys go and investigate the matter of Mengyin Mountain? Why did you kill Hsiao Mumei of Azure Sky Castle? She is the disciple of the Lord of Azure Sky Castle, Luo Yeezhen!"
Jiang Mengyuan's tone was somewhat worried. Who was Luo Yeezhen? He was a person who hated evil and protected his own people. Qi Zhuohao had killed her only disciple. It would be strange if she would let Qi Zhuohao go.
Qi Zhuohao did not want to explain to Jiang Mengyuan. Of course, he did not have time to explain because the group from Azure Sky Castle had arrived.
"Qi Zhuohao brat, you have to pay with your life for killing me. Today, you must die!"
Ann Dongying was a grizzled old man. He jumped off the back of the Horned Horse. Immediately, he led the other two elders and disciples of Azure Sky Castle to surround Qi Zhuohao. Of course. They had also surrounded the people of Thousand Searching Sect.
"Du Qingluo, Jiang Mengyuan, Qi Zhuohao has killed a disciple of Azure Sky Castle. All of you better not interfere in this matter. Even if Shen Wanchun is here, he wouldn't dare to stop me from taking Qi Zhuohao's head. If you know what's good for you, you better back off."
As soon as Ann Dongying's words came out, coupled with the tense situation between the two parties, the surrounding people retreated, afraid that they would be implicated.
"Elder An, this is just a one-sided statement from your Azure Sky Castle. It's one thing for your Azure Sky Castle to put a bounty on the disciples of my Thousand Searching Sect without having a chance to communicate with the Thousand Searching Sect to verify this matter. What? You still want to kill a disciple of the Thousand Searching Sect in front of me? "
Du Qingluo took a step forward angrily. She naturally wouldn't watch Qi Zhuohao get killed by Ann Dongying, regardless of whether Qi Zhuohao killed Hsiao Mumei or not. It was normal for people to die in the world of martial artists. Could it be that the Thousand Searching Sect was afraid of the Azure Sky Castle?
Ann Dongying's tone was arrogant and domineering, looking down on everyone. This made Du Qingluo very unhappy. Even if the disciples of the Thousand Searching Sect made a mistake, it was not up to the Azure Sky Castle to deal with it on their own. It seemed like the silence of the Thousand Searching Sect had caused some of the major powers to become restless.
"Poison Peak Lord, you have to think this through. There is no solid evidence. My Azure Sky Castle will not accuse anyone wrongly. My disciple is a witness. He saw Qi Zhuohao kill more than a dozen disciples of Azure Sky Castle and Hsiao Mumei with his own eyes. How could this be fake? "
In Ann Dongying's heart, Tao Lian wouldn't dare lie to him. He continued, "Poison Peak Lord, Azure Sky Castle only wants Qi Zhuohao's head. This will not affect the friendly relationship between our two sects. The death of Qi Zhuohao isn't a big loss to your Thousand Searching Sect."
"Elder An, what you said is wrong. According to what you said... It doesn't matter if Hsiao Mumei dies in Azure Sky Castle. Furthermore, your disciple said that Qi Zhuohao killed Hsiao Mumei. Did anyone else see this? I think this is clearly a framing! "
Du Qingluo looked coldly at Tao Lian and said," I want to ask, your strength should not be as strong as Hsiao Mumei's. Since Qi Zhuohao could kill Hsiao Mumei, why are you still alive? Tell me, why did you frame Qi Zhuohao? "
"Poison Peak Lord, what are you saying? What do you mean by dirty and framing? Is there a need for my Azure Sky Castle to do that? This disciple of mine has a very strong life-saving ability. So what if he can escape from Qi Zhuohao?" Before Tao Lian could say anything, Ann Dongying once again pointed the spearhead at Qi Zhuohao. Tao Lian saying that Qi Zhuohao killed Hsiao Mumei and the others was absolutely not wrong.
With a cold snort, Ann Dongying continued, "Poison Peak Lord, Qi Zhuohao's strength is not bad, but he can't kill the innocent indiscriminately. What's the difference between this and an evil devil? Other than my disciple, all the witnesses have been killed by him. Don't shield him."
Du Qingluo was just about to retort when Qi Zhuohao raised his hand to stop her. Looking at Tao Lian, Qi Zhuohao smiled and said, "Senior brother Tao, how have you been? That palm of yours back then had taken half of Hsiao Mumei's life. What, you dare to admit it or not?"
When Qi Zhuohao said this, Tao Lian's facial expression changed dramatically. But right after that... His facial expression returned to normal. "Qi Zhuohao, don't speak nonsense here. Fortunately, Junior Sister Xiao risked her life to save me. Otherwise, I would have already died in your hands. This is the cycle of heaven and earth. Since I have returned to Azure Sky Castle alive, today will be the day of your death. "
" Tao Lian, the person I hate the most is a despicable person like you. I dare not accept it, but it is the truth that I have killed Hsiao Mumei. I will not shirk the responsibility, but the matter of killing Hsiao Mumei... You have also done your part. Do you think Luo Yeezhen will let you go? "
Qi Zhuohao sneered and continued, "Tao Lian, your master Elder An is a highly respected person in Azure Sky Castle. Don't harm him."1
"Nonsense!" Tao Lian roared angrily. This was a sign of guilty conscience. Everyone present could see it, including Ann Dongying.
Ann Dongying rolled his eyes and said, "Qi Zhuohao, since you admit that you killed a disciple of the Azure Sky Castle, then die!"
Ann Dongying had already thought that the death of Hsiao Mumei was most likely related to Tao Lian. Now, he could only try his best to absolve Tao Lian of his crime. Without a doubt, killing Qi Zhuohao would solve the problem, and Tao Lian and Ann Dongying would be safe.
"Elder An, this matter has yet to be fully clarified. Are you going to make a move now?"
Du Qingluo took another step forward and said with a cold smile, "Qi Zhuohao admitted that he killed Hsiao Mumei, but he also said it. Your disciple, Tao Lian, was also involved in that matter. Why are you in such a hurry to kill Qi Zhuohao? Could it be that you want to cover it up? "
"That's right. The disciples of the Thousand Searching Sect will never slander your disciple. Since he dared to admit that he killed Hsiao Mumei, why did he drag your disciple into this matter? Elder An, if you insist on doing what you want, my Thousand Searching Sect might not be afraid of you."
As soon as Jiang Mengyuan finished speaking, the surrounding people started pointing and pointing at Ann Dongying. Obviously, Qi Zhuohao's words were more convincing. Just think about it. If Qi Zhuohao could kill Hsiao Mumei, he should be able to kill Tao Lian as well. Qi Zhuohao would never frame Tao Lian for no reason.
The two disciples of the Great Sect exchanged weapons. The atmosphere at the foot of the Thousand Star Mountain had become extremely tense!
Ann Dongying's face turned ashen and he had nothing to say. At this moment, the Third Elder of the Cloud Sect, Bian Liansheng, slowly walked over. He said, "Elder An, Qi Zhuohao is here. Why are you in a hurry to kill him? Could it be that you want to absolve your disciple of his crimes?"
"Elder Bian, are you going to join forces with the Thousand Searching Sect to deal with this old man?"
Ann Dongying coldly harrumphed, but Bian Liansheng's expression turned serious. He said, "So what if I am? My Cloud Sect has always been on good terms with the Thousand Searching Sect. The matter of the Thousand Searching Sect is the matter of my Cloud Sect. Also, Qi Zhuohao is a distinguished guest of the Cloud Sect. How can I allow you to kill him just like that? What's the big deal about the death of a few people in this world? Everything depends on one's strength. So what if Qi Zhuohao really killed a disciple of the Azure Sky Castle? If you want to take revenge, you have to ask us, these old fellows!"
"Very good. Bian Liansheng, if you insist on helping Qi Zhuohao, then we will show our true strength!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Ann Dongying instantly summoned an Earth Weapon. Seeing this, Bian Liansheng angrily snorted and said, "If you want to fight, then fight. Ann Dongying, do you think I'm afraid of you?"
After Bian Liansheng's shout faded, he also raised his hand and summoned an Earth Weapon. However, at the critical moment when the war was about to erupt, a Buddhist proclamation was heard. Instantly, the atmosphere below the Thousand Star Mountain became tranquil.
"Amitabha. Patrons, although this old monk doesn't wish to interfere in this matter, however, this old monk believes in Almsgiver Qi's character. He said that Tao Lian was involved in that matter. This definitely isn't baseless news. We will only make a decision after we have investigated this matter thoroughly. "
As Great Master Wangkong spoke, he had already arrived at Qi Zhuohao's side. Glancing at the crowd, he continued, "Patrons, this old monk is not a busybody. Today, this old monk is here. I hope all of you can think twice before acting. This old monk doesn't want to see a bloody scene. As for what will all of you do in the future? This old monk does not care! "
Great Master Wangkong said. Ann Dongying and Bian Liansheng hurriedly put away their Earth Weapons. Great Master Wangkong did not openly help Qi Zhuohao, but everyone knew what he was thinking. Although Ann Dongying was unwilling, he could only endure it.
"What Great Master said makes sense. It was this old man who acted impulsively. This old man will naturally investigate this matter!"
After saying that, Ann Dongying waved his hand. The disciples and elders of Azure Sky Castle immediately followed him to the side. With Great Master Wangkong here, he wouldn't even be able to make a move. How could he kill Qi Zhuohao?
However, Ann Dongying wasn't in a hurry. After opening the door of the Thousand Stars Cave, Great Master Wangkong would leave. At that time, he would have to kill Qi Zhuohao. Otherwise, Tao Lian and him would be implicated.
Ann Dongying could also see that although Great Master Wangkong wanted to help Qi Zhuohao, he wouldn't be able to provide much help to Qi Zhuohao. Great Master Wangkong was an eminent monk of Myriad Buddha Temple. Every word and action of his had to be taken seriously.
Watching the people of Azure Sky Castle leave, Bian Liansheng also walked back to the side of the disciples of Cloud Sect. At this time, Great Master Wangkong looked at Qi Zhuohao and said, "Young benefactor, I'm not helping you. I just don't want to see a bloody massacre!"
"Master, this junior understands!" Qi Zhuohao replied. In fact, Great Master Wangkong really did not need to stand up for him. Of course, he also understood that Great Master Wangkong was merciful and saved the world. He really did not want to see righteous martial artists killing each other.
Great Master Wangkong nodded and said in a clear voice, "Almsgivers, in another two hours, no matter which family or power has not arrived yet? We will open the stone door of the Thousand Stars Cave. Patrons who are participating in the tough-training, please prepare yourselves."
Originally, the stone door of the Thousand Stars Cave would open in the evening. There were still a few hours left before the opening. Great Master Wangkong did this. Without a doubt, he wanted Qi Zhuohao to leave this place as soon as possible. What he could do was... That was all he could do...
