The Ancestor of our Sect Isn’t Acting like an Elder

The sudden shadow obscured the flickering candlelight.

“The Lord of the Palace.”

Qi Qiqi was just frowned when she was called to her.

“Martial Aunt Ye…”

Sighed Qi Qiqi rubbed her sore temples and raised her gaze from the scroll.

Ye Zhen was standing there not far away, his face still had no expression on his face as before, and he couldn’t see what he was thinking.

Ye Zhen’s silhouette dissolves in the field of vision, Qi Qiqi is slightly dazed.

Sometimes Qi Qiqi hurts herself, Martial Uncle.

She doesn’t know how this cultivation base, Martial Uncle, who is also better than her own master bowl, thinks of herself—this alone is enough to make her look like duckweed without roots. Reliable and restless.

“Elder Liu came again today to ask me how I did the investigation.”

Ye Zhen’s words made Qi Qiqi come back to his senses. She sighed:

“How many times is it already?”

“Almost once a day.”

“Is this Elder Liu not annoying me enough… …”

Qi Qiqi put down her scroll and massaged her nose.

It has been more than six days since Qin Chen’s body was discovered. Liu Chengzong tirelessly approached Ye Zhen or Qi Qiqi every day to ask about the progress of the investigation.

Qi Qiqi naturally knew that Liu Chengzong was only angry in her heart and needed an urgent explanation, but he knew that this was a kind of pressure and still deliberately did it, I’m afraid Ye Zhen also did it.

Cheng Yaojin, who was halfway through to sit as the Sect Master, has no authority. Liu Chengzong has only superficial respect for herself.

Not to mention Ye Zhen, his attitude towards himself is not at all like that of his subordinates to his superiors. On the contrary, he sometimes even puts on the elders’ airs and speaks against him regardless of his own face.

“…Elder Liu is just nervous about this that’s all.”

“Of course I know!”

When she reacted, she was already excited The ground yelled.

“It seems that the palace lord is tired.”

Ye Zhen startled and then sighed.

“It’s not worth worrying about Martial Uncle.”

Ye Zhen took a deep look at Qi Qiqi and stopped talking.

After a long silence, Qi Qiqi asked:

“Is there no news about Senior Sister Li?”

“No, just like disappear from the face of the earth, there is no clue at all.”

Where did Ting elder sister go? It won’t be… Under the stress of suppressing the anxiety in her heart, Qi Qiqi exhaled and said in a depressed tone:

“What the hell is it? How could a person disappear so clean?”

“It’s not a way to stay in a stalemate like this. Now the evidence points to Elder Li──”

What do you mean! Is this forcing me? ! An unnamed fire oil sprouts, Qi Qiqi slap the table and stand up.

“Enough, Ye Zhen! Do you want me to put up a coffin like this to conclude the case?”

She didn’t know why she was so angry, and she had never been so angry before others. Excited and angry.

Probably I can’t bear it anymore…but it doesn’t matter.

I guess I didn’t expect Qi Qiqi, who has always been quite decent, to have such a big temper. Ye Zhen was dumb for a while, and said apologetically:

“Palace Lord, I didn’t mean that. .”

What’s wrong with me? Qi Qiqi took a deep breath several times to exhale the anger that coiled in the heart.

“No, I just…”

She sat down sullenly and shook the head.

“I understand.”

Qi Qiqi raised her forehead and said with a little fatigue:

“You understand, but you have no intention of understanding me. “

Ye Zhen stared at Qi Qiqi deeply and lightly said:

“…As the palace lord, you have to look at the whole situation, and you can’t mix personal feelings. Qin Chen is an Elder. , His death is of great importance. If it is not settled as soon as possible, it will affect the reputation of Heavenly Jade Palace, and it will be difficult to explain to Heavenly Jade Palace.”

“Even if the dead deserved the crime. ?”

Qi Qiqi pretended to ask casually.

“The Lord of the Palace said that was not right.”

The frowned Ye Zhen was right.

For what he said, Qi Qiqi snort disdainfully.

“You and I know this well.”

“It seems that the palace lord did not understand why I saved Qin Chen at the time.”

Qi Qiqi picked frowned, and Ai Feng asked relatively:

“…Are there any other reasons besides me?”

Ye Zhen showed a surprised expression, then immediately Shook the head with disappointment.

“The palace lord still failed to believe me…”

For some reason, noticing the bitterness that flashed across Ye Zhen’s face, Qi Qiqi had a strange feeling. I felt that I might have a bias against Ye Zhen that he shouldn’t have.

It’s just that she quickly dissipated this thought, lowered her eyes, and said quietly:

“…You never explain, how do you tell me to believe you?”

p>

“…”

Ye Zhen was silent for a long time before sighed.

“Elder Luo is the breakthrough point now.”

Maybe it is useless to talk about the entangled facts between the two that are difficult to explain. Ye Zhen suddenly changed the topic and brought the topic back to business.

Qi Qiqi, who is aware of the other party’s intentions, also echoes nodded in a kind manner.

“Xia Elder should have arrived in Jinling. She has any news?”

Before she disappeared, the last person Li Wanting saw was Luo Qing. Luo Qing might be there. I might know anything.

The reason why Qi Qiqi wanted Xia Xue to rush to Jinling, besides inviting Sue Kirin back to sit in town, another purpose was Luoqing. Ye Zhen naturally knew about this. After all, Qi Qiqi didn’t hide it specially. Even if she did, she would definitely not fool Ye Zhen.

“Not yet.”

Qi Qiqi shook her head a little irritably.

“But it is estimated that it is almost the same. With Senior Sister Xia’s footsteps, she should have arrived in Jinling long ago to meet the little Ancestor Master.”

Then she added this again. One sentence.

“It’s so good, Elder Liu can’t hold it anymore.”

“…”

Qiqiqi couldn’t say anything. As for what Ye Zhen said, she naturally knew that the old stubbornness of Liu Chengzong who made troubles was really annoying.

──At this time, Ye Zhen suddenly raised his head and looked out the door, his eyes flashing with incomprehension.

“What’s the matter?”

Qi Qiqi frowned and asked suspiciously.

“Xia Elder seems to be back…but there is only one person.”

Only one person? what happend? Didn’t you see the little Ancestor Master?

For some reason, Qi Qiqi is a little uneasy.

Maybe it’s just Senior Sister Xia who took the first step that’s all… Qi Qiqi tried to find a reason, but this reason was really unsatisfactory, and she couldn’t even convince her herself. Qi Qiqi stood up anxiously and walked towards the door. Ye Zhen slowly followed her behind.

As soon as I left the door, I saw a silhouette rushing towards me.

It is Xia Xue.

As soon as Qi Qiqi wanted to say hello, the other party had already landed in front of her.

Xia Xue, who was originally anxious, sighed in relief for some reason after seeing Qi Qiqi.

“Senior Sister Xia, what about the little Ancestor Master?”

As Ye Zhen said, Qi Qiqi did not see the silhouette of the little Ancestor Master, so she asked straight to the point .

It was just that she asked, but Xia Xue’s expression sank.

She took a cautious look at Ye Zhen who was standing by, seemingly scrupulous.

“Palace Master, then I will retire first.”

It seems that Ye Zhen cupped his hands and said when he discovered Xia Xue’s warning to him.

Qiqiqi was trying to say yes to nodded, but for some reason, such a sentence suddenly appeared in her mind──

──”The palace lord still didn’t believe me…”

Is it true that I haven’t given Ye Zhen a little trust? Qi Qiqi was silent for a while, sighed, and said:

“It’s okay, Ye Vice Palace Lord, just stay…it’s not something to avoid.”

Ye Zhen startled, no action.

“Is this okay?”

Xia Xue frowns asked softly in Qi Qiqi’s ear.

“It’s okay──”

Qi Qiqi gave Xia Xue a look to make her feel at ease, and then she continued to ask:

“Where is the little Ancestor Master? Didn’t she come back with you?”

Xia Xue’s facial expression grave, said clearly:

“Little Ancestor Master was captured alive by Heavenly Sword Gate.”

“Huh…”

All of a sudden, Qi Qiqi didn’t react. What Xia Xue said was beyond her expectation.

On the contrary, Ye Zhen immediately reacted, and he asked Xia Xue in a deep voice.

“What’s going on?”

Xia Xue tightened her eyebrows and explained in an unsure tone:

“I don’t know, Qing’er said Heavenly Sword Gate suddenly brought people to attack them. In order to allow them to escape from the clutches of Heavenly Sword Gate, the little Ancestor Master left behind the people who dragged the Heavenly Sword Gate… But, the news was also lost.”

“What do you say about the catch alive?”

“Qing’er said that it was Senior Sister Luo’s speculation. Senior Sister Luo believed that the little Ancestor Master would only be held in Heavenly Sword Gate for a day. , We will refrain from shooting at the rat for fear of breaking the vases, so Heavenly Sword Gate will not kill the little Ancestor Master, because that also represents a full-scale war with us, and the current capital of Heavenly Sword Gate must be full-scale with us There is no guarantee of victory in the war, so—”

Xia Xue took the news from Gong Tianqing and told the truth.

“Where’s the grand-nephew of the palace teacher?”

“We met halfway, when she met me, she had endured the hardships of a long journey, tired As I can see, when I saw this situation, I found an Inn to settle her down. After I asked about the situation, I took the first step to notify the palace lord.”

“What about Senior Sister Luo?”

Already came back to his senses, Qi Qiqi, who had been silently listening to the conversation between the two, then intervened.

“Qing’er said that Senior Sister Luo stayed in Jinling and said he wanted to inquire about the news. Also, if Qing’er asked me to tell Senior Sister Luo, if we must ask us to go out immediately–” Xia Xue glanced at Ye Zhen, “Ye Vice Palace Lord is out of the palace.”

Qi Qiqi quickly figured out why Luo Qing had such a request.

If the little Ancestor Master is really caught alive by Heavenly Sword Gate, Ye Zhen must take action to rescue the little Ancestor Master. After all, the Huatianji of Heavenly Sword Gate is still there.

The reason why Luo Qing asked for “immediately” was naturally to save time. Since she was already investigating the news in Jinling, she asked Gong Tianqing to come back first and ask Ye Zhen to get out. Then after Ye Zhen rushed to Jinpi, Luo Qing might have found out something. In this way, the process of sending the news back to Heavenly Jade Palace can be omitted, which greatly saves time.

Just–Will Ye Zhen agree to go out of the palace?

Qi Qiqi couldn’t help but glanced at Ye Zhen, he lowered his eyes, as if thinking about something.

Although Ye Zhen advocates the revitalization of Heavenly Jade Palace, he is actually not a high-profile person, as can be seen from his taciturn personality. In fact, Qi Qiqi thinks he is quite conservative, and that’s because In this way, he didn’t worry about handing Heavenly Jade Palace to himself, a weak female stream who was only sixteen years old.

Heavenly Jade Palace is still thickly covered by the suspicion that Qin Chen was killed ──Under this situation, will Ye Zhen really go out of the palace?

No, now is not the time to think about the future.

The life and death of the little Ancestor Master is very important to Heavenly Jade Palace. Her existence can not only buy more time for the revival of Heavenly Jade Palace, but also make it glare like a tiger watching Heavenly Jade Palace. The many Second-Rate Sects of his prey are a bit worrying.

More importantly, it was Qi Qiqi who made Sue Kirin travel to Jinling. Now that she has an accident, Qi Qiqi can’t help but feel responsible and guilty about it.

So──

“Xia Elder, I have something to talk to the Vice Palace Lord Ye, you should avoid it first.”

“This…”

Xia Xue looked at Qi Qiqi and Ye Zhen suspiciously.

“It’s okay, don’t worry.”

Qiqi Qi smiled lightly. A bitter smile.

“All right then.”

Although Xia Xue had an expression that could not be let go, she still followed Qi Qiqi’s will.

After Xia Xue’s back disappeared, Ye Zhen took the lead to speak:

“The palace lord wants me to go out of the palace to save the little Ancestor Master, right?”

“Do you think the little Ancestor Master should be saved?” Qi Qiqi asked back.

“Naturally want to save, it’s just──”

“I know what you want to say, it’s nothing more than Qin Chen that’s all. In the case of unclear truth, you are the only one The heavens cannot move-do you think so?”

Ye Zhen didn’t answer, obviously tacitly.

What should I do? How can I convince Ye Zhen? He said he could not believe him, is that really the case? Did I really believe him? No, before that, the Qin Chen matter was still there── hey! So annoying.

Qi Qiqi has no desire to improve, scratching her hair messily, regardless of whether Ye Zhen who is standing next to her is dumbfounded.

At this time, Qi Qiqi suddenly remembered what she had eavesdropped on that day–

–“Some things have never been right. Many times, they are not. Whether it can be or not is a question of whether it should or not.”

“Do you want to do it…” Qi Qiqi regurgitated this sentence blankly.

What do I want to do?

Hmm?? I want to save the little Ancestor Master.

And then?

If you want to save the little Ancestor Master, as Senior Sister Luo said to persuade Ye Zhen, then how to persuade him?

Qiqiqi thought again, but didn’t think of a reason, which made her a little irritable.

Enough! Annoying! Qi Qiqi scratched her hair again, until her hair became disorganized, she stopped moving. This is Ye Zhen! Qi Qi glared at Ye Zhen fiercely.

“Palace lord, you──”

“You must be blamed!”

Qi Qiqi can no longer care about “the manners the lord should have” Up.

Go to his “Palace Master’s Demeanor”!

“Blam me??”

Ye Zhen seemed a little overwhelmed.

Qiqiqi raised her hips and pointed to Ye Zhen indignantly and said:

“Ye Zhen, you said I didn’t trust you, right? To tell the truth, I really haven’t Believe in you! However, you are also responsible for this! Look at you often standing aside like a wooden not say a word, with no expression on your face, making it impossible to feel what you are thinking, you are a human How to trust you? Do you think that you are a master? I tell you, it’s not like it at all!”

Qi Qiqi burst out her complaints one after another, like a The child who has been fed up generally does not hide his feelings, and does not look like a palace lord at all.

But Qi Qiqi is too lazy to care! Today she must swear happily.

“Why do you look like that? Surprised? Are you surprised? I tell you, I have seen you upset for a long time! I still suspect that Qin Chen simply killed you, okay There is an excuse to force the palace! If it were not just to create a credibility crisis for me!”

Unconsciously, she was already flushed with scolding. When talking about excitement, she even slammed on the floor with her foot, as if the floor was like Ye Zhen.

Ye Zhen, who came back to his senses, opened her mouth to say something, but Qi Qiqi said first:

“You are not allowed to say! I haven’t finished! I not only suspect that you are The real murderer behind the killing of Qin Chen, even more suspected that you even have a part in the little Ancestor Master, the purpose is to eliminate all obstacles to deal with me!”

It must be mentioned that Qi Qiqi does have doubts here. Yes, but there is no evidence at all.

“Okay, I’m finished.”

Qi Qiqi took a few deep breaths, so that her chest was so violently undulating.

At this time, she only felt refreshed.

Qi Qiqi thinks of Sue Kirin, who was labelled as a speechless generation by her. No wonder that bastard always scolds that sentence!

Ye Zhen didn’t seem to have recovered from the shock. He looked at Qi Qiqi blankly, opened his mouth but didn’t speak.

“What’s the matter? Just say if you have something…”

“…Although you and I have a lot of disagreements, the only difference is the Heavenly Jade Palace Something harmful, this Ye disdains it, and never thought of harming Xiaoqi you…”

Ye Zhen called her “Xiaoqi”, which made Qi Qiqi stunned.

“…I think of you before. You used to have this kind of temperament. If you have something to say, just say it, instead of talking about everything like this now.”

Ye Zhenlue Said with a sigh.

Qi Qiqi then remembered that Ye Zhen had watched Qi Qiqi grow up since she was a child-he had always called her Xiaoqi before she became the palace lord.

When did I forget? Qi Qiqi didn’t know either.

When did you start to suspect each other everywhere? Qi Qiqi didn’t know either.

Ye Zhen shook the head relievedly, and then said with a wry smile:

“I am a person who doesn’t know how to express myself, so it’s not surprising that you don’t believe me, just didn’t expect you to think me so unbearable.”

Qi Qiqi stayed for a while, but then curled one’s lip again.

“You didn’t believe me, did you?”

“I…” After only one word, Ye Zhen shook the head and said bitterly: “Indeed “

Ye Zhen was silent for a while, then continued:

“Unconsciously, I will doubt you.”

For some reason, Qi Qiqi understands What he meant.

When there is a constant division between the two, gradually there will be a crack and the trust will be cut off-probably this is the case? Qi Qiqi thought.

“…Little Ancestor Master is saved.”

Ye Zhen said suddenly. He put on that expressionless and rigid face again.

“Of course I know, but are you willing to make a move?”

“I’m not willing or not, I’m just afraid of someone who killed Qin Chen.”

“Do you really doubt Ting’s elder sister?”

Qiqiqi is frowned. Ye Zhen didn’t care, and as it should be by rights said:

“I am not familiar with her, and it is natural to suspect her, just like you would doubt me.”

>

“…So, did you doubt me too?”

“I saved Qin Chen for the sake of the overall strength of Heavenly Jade Palace. You are very dissatisfied with that-I know Yes, so…”

“I won’t do these crafty plots and machinations, and Ting’s elder sister is a sister to me, and I will not harm her!”

Maybe it was Ye Zhen’s words that stepped on the tail, Qi Qiqi made a solemn statement unhappily.

Ye Zhen was silent, and Qi Qiqi said grimly:

“So, our biggest problem now is that we don’t trust each other.”

” Yes, and Qin Chen’s death restricts our actions.”

“…then let the little Ancestor Master not save it?”

“Neither is it.”

“If there is a way, just say it!”

Looking at Ye Zhen who was at ease, Qi Qiqi was a little impatient.

“Then it depends on whether the palace lord is willing to believe me and give my life to me.”

“What do you mean?”

“I’m out Gong Jiu Xiao Ancestor Master can, but the palace owner has to follow. Just you and me, no one else.”

Qi Qiqi is frowned, Ye Zhen is testing whether he wants to believe him.

After all, once the two went out of the palace together, even if something happened to Qi Qiqi, Ye Zhen also had an excuse to shirk it to others, such as Qi Qiqi’s death at Heavenly Sword Gate.

On the other hand, he wanted to be at ease when he asked himself to go out of the palace with him.

Otherwise, once he leaves Heavenly Jade Palace, the remaining Liu Chengzong and Yang Yuening are not enough for Xia Xue to contend with, and he also admits to doubt Li Wanting, so naturally he will also think that Li Wanting has the opportunity to return to Heavenly at any time Jade Palace, even has always been in Heavenly Jade Palace, just hide it by yourself that’s all.

──Under this circumstance, he didn’t dare to go out of the palace, because the matter of Qin Chen is still unknown.

However──

Can he really be trusted? But if you don’t trust him, he won’t go out of the palace, and the little Ancestor Master is probably… Qi Qiqi sighed, in this case, is there any choice? And more importantly, she somehow wanted to rescue Sue Kirin. I don’t know the reason, just thinking.

“Well, I promise you.”

Ye Zhen rarely showed a relieved expression, and then casually said:

“So it’s not too late, Let’s go now.”

“So fast?!” “Profound Void ──If we disappear at the same time, do you think that if Qin Chen is killed by someone else, what will happen to him?”

Qiqiqi thought for a while, and then said not sure:

“Don’t dare to act rashly.”

“In the same sentence.”

The corners of Ye Zhen’s mouth raised slightly, as if everything was under control.
