184: C184 The Black Hand Behind the Scenes

C184 The Black Hand Behind the Scenes

Lu Qi shook her head.

"No."

She was also quite helpless.

Because something like the heavenly retribution was originally a punishment that the heavens sent to the mortal world.

Going against the heavens for the sake of doing so, was going against the Heavenly Dao.

The consequences of going against the Heavenly Dao could be imagined.

"I... I actually didn't..."

Zhou Daqing's spirit immediately weakened.

He had always thought that as a father, he could shield Zhou Xiaoqin from the wind and rain, and protect her for the rest of her life.

However, he never would have thought that the biggest storm in Zhou Xiaoqin's life would be brought by him, the father.

Imagine, if he had not listened to the words of the master and placed the sandalwood box containing the Chaotic Qi into the Star Academy, the master would not have been able to use the formation to absorb the Yang energy of the students.

If he didn't absorb the Yang Qi, the heavens wouldn't punish him, and his daughter would have died a premature death at the age of 20.

It was really... One misstep and it would become eternal hatred!

"Xiaoqin, it is all my fault that I have let you down..." Zhou Daqing sobbed in a low voice.

Lu Qi somehow felt a little envious of Zhou Xiaoqin.

The Zhou family was indeed not as rich as the Lu family. It was just a small upstart.

However, Zhou Daqing had given Zhou Xiaoqin all of his fatherly love.

Even if Zhou Xiaoqin was ignorant and incompetent, she would always be ranked last in the entire grade.

Zhou Daqing had never disliked her. He still doted on Zhou Xiaoqin like a precious lump.

As for her?

She was clearly the young mistress of the Lu family, but she lived like an outsider.

Not to mention fatherly love, even the people of the Lu family had never given her a trace of care.

"Alright." Lu Qi quickly restrained her emotions, "Although your daughter only has two years left to live, you can make use of this period of time to get along well with your daughter, so as to avoid any regrets in the future."

Zhou Daqing found it hard to accept.

But after thinking about it carefully, he felt that it was true.

Since he couldn't change the result, why not change the process?

"Then... then the chaotic energy in my daughter's body..." He looked at Lu Qi hesitantly.

Lu Qi did not respond.

She walked to the corridor and slowly took out something from her pocket.

It was a little fiery red gecko.

Its two eyes rolled around.

It looked like it had a lot of spiritual energy.

"Hungry? Go!"

Lu Qi slightly raised her hand and saw the little gecko pounce over like a spring.

Zhou Xiaoqin was frightened.

However, she was stopped by Lu Qi and could not move at all.

She could only watch helplessly as the little gecko jumped up and down on her body.

But not to mention, wherever the little gecko climbed, the pain would quickly dissipate.

It was as if something had been eaten by it.

"Hey, Xiaoqin's body actually... actually became swollen!" Zhou Daqing was very shocked.

The little gecko slowly crawled out from the back of Zhou Xiaoqin's neck.

"Burp ~"

It touched its stomach and burped. Then it jumped to the ground and crawled back into Lu Qi's palm.

"It's done. I keep my promise. I have done what I promised you. "

Lu Qi snapped her fingers and the Body Securing Talisman on Zhou Xiaoqin's body was removed.

"Dad!"

Zhou Xiaoqin cried as she threw herself into Zhou Daqing's arms.

Zhou Daqing was still confused.

This... Was this considered solving the problem?

From start to finish, it did not exceed 2 minutes!

It seemed that Lu Qi's abilities were indeed much higher than that expert back then!

"Xiaoqin, be good. Daddy is here." Zhou Daqing patted Zhou Xiaoqin's head and comforted her gently.

"Dad." Zhou Xiaoqin looked up. "You talked to Lu Qi for so long inside. What did you say?"

"This..."

Zhou Daqing hesitated.

He remembered Lu Qi saying Zhou Xiaoqin only had two years left to live.

"I didn't say anything. I was just discussing how to save you."

There were some things that he could hide from her for a day.

As for Zhou Xiaoqin, she really did not see any abnormalities.

She only thought that her father had already perfectly resolved the Fire Demon incident this time.

"If that's the case, then you can leave now, Dad. You don't have to delay your work."

"It's fine. Dad isn't working anymore. From now on, Dad's main task is to accompany you."

"What?" Zhou Xiaoqin thought she heard it wrong.

One should know that although her father doted on her, he had always prioritized work.

Not to mention accompanying her, sometimes when she was busy, it was always good to see her once every ten days or half a month.

In the end, her father actually... actually put down his work and specially came to accompany her?

What was going on!

"Xiaoqin, didn't you always tell me that you want to travel around the world? So, I decided to take you out to travel the mountains and rivers of the world tomorrow." Zhou Daqing said.

"Yay!"

Zhou Xiaoqin did not care about her doubts and tightly hugged Zhou Daqing.

"Dad, this is great! You are really the best dad in the world!"

Looking at his daughter's happy smile, Zhou Daqing suddenly felt that Lu Qi was right.

Even if he only had two years of life left, he could still use these two years to accompany his daughter and do all the things she wanted to do.

This way, when his daughter really left one day, his daughter would not hate him for having a father like him.

"Why did you let them go so easily?" Not far away, Chen Feng asked while blinking his eyes.

In his opinion, the whole incident was basically caused by Zhou Daqing.

If it wasn't for him, where would the Fire Demon come from?

But Lu Qi actually did not make them pay the price.

This... It really did not make sense!

"He was also used." Lu Qi replied faintly.

"Being used by others? By who?"

"I don't know yet. However, it's very likely that the other party is from the Mystic Gate."

As she spoke, she released the Primal Chaos Qi from her fingertip once again.

"This..." Chen Feng was somewhat surprised.

How could such a dangerous thing be hidden in such an ordinary classroom?

More importantly, judging from the number, there seemed to be quite a number of them.

"I heard from Zhou Xiaoqin's father that this Chaos Qi was put into the school by a master. The purpose was to absorb the Yang Qi of the students. Think about it, other than people from the Mystic Gate, who else would be interested in the Yang Qi? "

Chen Feng rubbed his head." It seems to make sense. Yang energy was colorless and odorless. It did not even have a shape. Other than people from the Mystic Gate, it really doesn't have much effect on others."

" So, do you think I should punish the Zhou Family or the black hand behind the scenes? " Lu Qi asked.

"Of course it is the black hand behind the scenes! Using an ordinary person to do such an evil thing, it would be impossible for the heavens to not punish him! In the end, the Zhou family also participated and let them go just like that. It seems... it seems to be a bit too merciful?" Chen Feng was a person who hated evil as if it was his enemy.

Lu Qi curled her lips, "It is not that we are letting them go, but... the heavens have already given the Zhou family retribution."0

Chen Feng was somewhat puzzled.

But after recalling the words Zhou Daqing had said to Zhou Xiaoqin, he seemed to have realized something.

"Junior sister, what you mean is..."

Lu Qi raised her finger and made a shushing gesture, indicating that he should not make a sound.

In the end, Zhou Xiaoqin did not have much time.

If she was provoked again, it would only make things worse.

"Alright, I won't say anymore. It's just that we know nothing about the mastermind behind this. How are we going to punish him?" Chen Feng asked.

Lu Qi opened her mouth and prepared to tell him her solution.

However, Zhou Daqing suddenly walked over at this moment.

"Little girl, I just thought of something."

"Hmm?"

"That year, that master helped me. Although he didn't take my money, he gave me an address and told me to look for him if I need anything."

As Zhou Daqing spoke, he took out a piece of paper from his wallet.

On it was an address.

"I've never been there before, but every time it's New Year's Eve, I will send something to this address without stopping."

Lu Qi lowered her head and looked at the note.

The paper was rough and the edges were yellow.

At first glance, it seemed that it was already quite old.

"Alright, I'll go with my senior brother later to take a look." Lu Qi kept the note properly.

Zhou Daqing was relieved.

Before this, he had been worried about owing Lu Qi a favor.

Now, after giving this piece of paper, he and Lu Qi could be considered to have settled things.

...

At the same time, on the other side of the city, a middle-aged man was drinking the freshly brewed Pu Er tea.

Suddenly, without any warning - - -

He felt a sharp pain in his chest and spat out a large mouthful of blood.

"No... Impossible, it's impossible for an ordinary person to destroy the Fire Water Dual Demon Formation that I've carefully set up, who did it?"
