Chapter 1988: Chapter 1988: The Great Elder of the Feng Shui Alliance Arrives
"Pfft!" As Qiu Yangzi hit the ground, a mouthful of fresh blood spurted out, his entire face as pale as paper, lying on the ground.
Gu Zhiqi took steps, walking towards Qiu Yangzi.
Sensing Gu Zhiqi’s approach, a sense of fear finally arose in Qiu Yangzi’s heart, and he dragged his body, moving away from Gu Zhiqi.
"Wh-what do you want?"
"Are you going to kill me?"
"If you kill me, you won’t escape either."
Qiu Yangzi looked at Gu Zhiqi with a face full of vigilance, speaking while retreating.
But in the end, he couldn’t move very far away.
In no time, Gu Zhiqi reached in front of him.
Seeing Gu Zhiqi so close, Qiu Yangzi only felt his scalp go numb, "You... can’t kill... ah!"
Before Qiu Yangzi could finish his words, Gu Zhiqi kicked him in the chest, and another mouthful of fresh blood spilled from his lips.
He lay on the ground with a face full of pain, staring at Gu Zhiqi in horror.
Gu Zhiqi slightly lowered her eyes, looking at Qiu Yangzi, "Kill you?"
"It would only dirty my hands."
If they weren’t in the Feng Shui Alliance, she might indeed kill him.
But, this is someone else’s territory, so she won’t take his life.
Upon hearing this, Qiu Yangzi knew Gu Zhiqi wouldn’t kill him, and he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Yet, just as he finished sighing, an intense pain overcame him.
Immediately, Qiu Yangzi let out a miserable cry and then fainted from the pain.
Gu Zhiqi first crippled Qiu Yangzi’s cultivation level and talent, then the Feng Shui Alliance members rushed in.
"Who are you? What did you do to the Sixth Elder?" asked a white-bearded old man, glaring at Gu Zhiqi with hostility.
The others also glared at Gu Zhiqi with hostility.
Gu Zhiqi slowly straightened her body, addressing the Feng Shui Alliance crowd, "He was the one who attacked first."
The old man scrutinized Gu Zhiqi upon hearing this and continued to ask, "Who are you? Why are you appearing in the Feng Shui Alliance? And why outside the Scripture Pavilion of my master’s sect?"
Upon seeing the hostile attitudes of the Feng Shui Alliance members toward Gu Zhiqi, Jin Cenglv immediately walked in front of Gu Zhiqi, shielding her behind him, and said to the crowd, "She is an invited guest of Alliance Leader Sikong."
"If you don’t believe me, feel free to ask him."
"Just now, it was the Sixth Elder who attacked us first."
Jin Cenglv said three sentences in one breath, and then stopped speaking.
He hadn’t spoken earlier because he was contemplating how to clearly explain the situation in one go.
Now that he had finished speaking, Jin Cenglv naturally wouldn’t say any more.
Upon hearing Jin Cenglv’s words, the white-bearded old man’s expression eased slightly, though it remained somewhat unsightly.
"Cenglv, haven’t you already left the master’s sect? Why have you come back?"
Jin Cenglv is a once-in-a-century talent, liked not only by Sikong Dian but also by the Great Elder and others.
But this troublesome girl left the master’s sect just like that, without a word to them, and without any warning, she just walked away.
For this, the Great Elder and others were still angry.
Now, seeing Jin Cenglv naturally wouldn’t bring a pleasant face.
Whether speaking or answering questions, Jin Cenglv would always be slower by half a beat than the average person. After a two-second silence, she sluggishly replied to the Great Elder, "In response to Alliance Leader Sikong’s invitation."
Listening to Jin Cenglv’s answer and her way of addressing Sikong Dian, the Great Elder’s mouth twitched violently.
"I will get to the bottom of the Sixth Elder’s matter, and I will also ask the Alliance Leader about your sudden appearance in the Feng Shui Alliance."
"If I find out you two are lying... hmph." The Great Elder didn’t finish his words, merely snorting coldly.
