Demon King’s Pampered Wife - C184 The Secret of Qi Hao(part I)

He shook his head and smiled, “Of course we believe in you. However, in the past few decades, Master has only been injured twice and no one is allowed to disturb you. Miss Ye …” As Xue Ran spoke, he took a step towards Zi Ling. A cold light flashed in his eyes, “You said …. Do you have to take some responsibility? ”

She did not expect her master and servant to say the same thing. She could not be bothered to argue and could only retreat to the side and sit down cross-legged, “If it was because I caused your master to be injured, I would naturally be responsible for his injuries. Regardless of whether it was going to the mountain of blades or the sea of flames, I will definitely restore your master to her former state.”

Xueran chuckled. “You don’t need to go up the mountain and down the sea of fire to avoid my master’s heartache. You only need to take responsibility for his life …”

A ray of light swept towards Bloodstain, and its remaining words were frozen in his mouth. He rubbed his nose, forgetting about this woman’s fierceness. “So you better pray that our master is safe and sound.”

Zi Ling no longer paid any attention to Xue Ran. He chuckled before returning to the cliff and sat down. His gaze, however, revealed a trace of worry as it swept over the valley.

For the next few days, there was no activity within the valley. Only then was Zi Ling able to stabilize the spiritual energy riots caused by the Phoenix Blood Saliva and no longer had the mood to continue cultivating.

Could he really be seriously injured?

Ye Zichen frowned. If it really was because of him, then what she owed Qi Hao wouldn’t be so easily repaid.

At this moment, Changsheng walked out of the valley entrance with food in his hand. “Miss Ye, why don’t you eat something first?”

Zi Ling had already stepped into the Core Formation stage and did not need to eat anymore food. However, these Xuan Wu cultivators really needed to eat to replenish their energy, and it would inevitably bring about unnecessary trouble, so these days, she ate like a mortal.

She took the blue and white porcelain bowl from him and thanked him.

Changsheng sat down three feet away from her. “Miss Ye, how did Master get injured?”

Long life is simple, but the loyalty to Qi Hao is no less than anyone else’s.

Zi Ling drank a mouthful of congee and stared at the porcelain bowl. She didn’t know whether to answer or to mutter to herself, “I don’t know either. Perhaps it was to save me.”

Thinking about it, this was the only possibility she had. That day, when she woke up, she happened to see Qi Hao’s back as he was leaving.

His own body’s toughness was enough to receive an attack from Xuan King. Moreover, with the Phoenix Blood Saliva in his body, even if it constantly destroyed his meridians and reformed them, it wouldn’t leave any hidden dangers. But Qi Hao was different. He wasn’t a cultivator, and he didn’t have such a heaven defying object like the Phoenix Blood Saliva to help him. One could imagine just how serious his internal injuries were.

If it was an ordinary Black Tortoise, they would have exploded and died long ago when they touched her body.

Longevity also frowned. His master had not stepped out of the valley, could it be that his injuries were extremely severe?

Just as the two of them were deep in thought, Xie Xie walked in from outside and swept his gaze across their faces. Then he turned to Zi Ling and asked, “How are master’s injuries? I feel that something is wrong in the valley. We’d better leave as soon as possible. ”

He had originally only entered the Sacred Grounds under the guise of the Patriarch. With Master’s current situation, if something were to happen to him, even if he were to die ten times, he wouldn’t be able to make up for it.

Changsheng stood up from the ground. “What happened?”

Xueran glanced at the purple silk, then told Changsheng about the peeping and the chaotic situation that had occurred in the valley in the past few days.

Ever since that day when he discovered the white-robed female, he had been paying attention to the movements of those from the Sacred Grounds. With Master here, he would not allow any danger to threaten his safety.

This investigation had truly made him realize that something was amiss. There was actually no one guarding the empty Sacred Land, and he had also discovered the residences of these people of the Sacred Land behind the snowy mountain. He was afraid of being discovered, so he didn’t dare to get too close.

From the serious expressions of the grey-clothed people entering and exiting, he guessed that something had happened. Now that his master was seriously injured, Skybird and Wu Di were not around. He carried the responsibility of protecting his master on his shoulders, so he acted with more care than ever before.

“Then let’s go report to Master and leave this place first.”

Of the four retainers, only two were present, and not a single Black Tortoise under their command was with them. If something happened, they would truly be blamed for it even if they died.

Zi Ling glanced into the valley, then said to her two retainers, “I’m afraid that Qi Hao’s wounds won’t be healed that easily. You two stay here. I’ll go take a look and see what’s going on.”

Without being able to answer, Zi Ling disappeared before their eyes in the blink of an eye.

“I’m afraid that Miss Ye’s cultivation is on par with Master.”

He had said those words just now because he wanted Zi Ling to investigate. After all, she was the strongest person here and he had thought that he would need to waste more time with her. He did not expect her to be more active than he had imagined.

He raised his eyebrows and chuckled.

He smiled at Changsheng in confusion. “What are you laughing at?”

Xueran patted his shoulder and smiled with an unfathomable expression, “Changsheng, you have yet to be enlightened regarding these matters. You still need to learn more.” He also did not give Changsheng any explanation, making him even more confused.

The Purple Ribbon used the restraining breath technique and fused itself with the snow. If it wasn’t for the presence of a powerful cultivator with powerful spiritual sense, it would have been impossible to detect her existence.

As early as the day they left the valley, she had released her spiritual sense to scout the surroundings. There were no Profound King within the valley, but there were quite a few Profound General level Profound realm practitioners. This was most likely due to the Divine Dragon Marrow.

With her cultivation, no one would be able to discover her hiding in the Sacred Grounds.

Very quickly, she found the place where the sacred grounds of the Qi family were filled with clansmen.

There was a valley behind the snow-capped mountain that had been built in the shape of a village. Judging from the size, there were at least a hundred or so people living here in the sacred grounds of the Qi clan.

While she was observing from afar from her hiding spot, she saw two gray-clothed people carrying a white bag walking out of the valley. The two gray-clothed men looked very young, only in their early twenties. The childishness between their brows had yet to be completely removed.

At this time, both of their eyes were red with tears still flowing down their faces. They walked speechlessly all the way to the edge of a cliff outside the valley.

The two men in gray put the white bags on the ground, knelt down beside each other, and kowtowed a few times.

“Fifth Grandpa, have a safe trip …”

After the two of them said this, they pushed the white bag into the cliff. The sound of their cries unconsciously seeped out from between their throats.

The shorter youth stood up and said to the other youth: “It must be them. I’m going to kill them.”

The taller youth jumped in fear. He didn’t care about the tears as he reached out to hold the other’s hand: “You are crazy! Grandpa said that it is the patriarch. If you rush over like this, you will be punished!”

“If you want to punish me, then punish me. At worst, just cripple my cultivation.” I’m going to kill them before that happens. From the moment they appeared in the valley, each and every one of their loved ones have left us. Brother Fourteenth, you don’t have to stop me! ”

With that, he broke free from the tall youth’s hand and rushed out.

“Seventeen, why are you so impulsive? If you anger the clan leader, it will bring about a calamity to our clan. What’s more … Before the clan head came here, a strange illness had already started to develop. Before the matter is fully investigated, one must not come to a conclusion! ” The tall youth was obviously much stronger, so he easily blocked the path of a short youth.

“Anyway, you’re afraid of death!” The short youth shouted in anger, “I don’t believe this has nothing to do with them. Even if this strange disease appeared some time ago, they are just crazy. How many of our relatives died when these people came?” The young man became more and more excited. Tears and snot flowed down his face.

Listening up to here, Zi Ling more or less understood what was going on. Through the short youth’s words, Zi Ling also had some doubts. Could it really be that their arrival had caused the deaths of these people?

It sounds a bit weird, but they don’t seem to be doing anything…

Thinking of this, Zi Ling suddenly opened her eyes wide. He thought of something — Divine Dragon Marrow!

In the end, these Xuanwu cultivators who cultivated profound strength could not compare to the body of a cultivator. Fortunately, the Sacred Pond was not a place to casually enter, otherwise the aura emitted by the Divine Dragon Marrow would have disappeared long ago. Even so, the long term inhalation of the aura emitted by the Divine Dragon Marrow would cause a fatal injury to any ordinary person. It was possible that the excessive amount of heat that the people were talking about from the Divine Dragon Marrow was the result of them being unable to refine it.

The reason for her sudden severe injury and the deaths of so many people was likely because of the loss of control over the Phoenix Blood Saliva after her severe injury and the violent reaction from the Divine Dragon Marrow.

In other words, these people died because of him. Her face darkened. If it weren’t for the discovery she had made today, she would never have known that she had carried the lives of so many people on her back. Karma existed.

Thinking of this, the tall youth had already controlled the short youth and dragged him back into the valley.

Seeing this, Zi Ling also came out from her hiding place and slowly walked towards the Sacred Pond.

“You found it?” Bloodstained reclined on the stone wall. He didn’t expect that Zi Ling would discover the result so quickly.

People here have a strange disease. Lots of people have died in the last few days.” As he spoke, his gaze swept across Xueran and Longevity. “Moreover, many of them think that our arrival is a disaster for them, so they have a lot of enmity towards us.

“I knew it wouldn’t be good.” Bloodstained jumped down and stared at Zi Ling. “We can’t stay here for long. How are master’s injuries?”

It was only before she left that she noticed something amiss with Qi Fu. How could she have the chance to investigate his injuries?

“I’ll go in and take a look …” As her subordinates, Xueran and Longevity didn’t dare to disobey Qi Hao’s orders, but it shouldn’t be a problem for her to sneak in and check the situation.

Saying that, he walked past the two of them.

The purple silk passed by the pool, and her gaze fell upon the pool. No matter what, she had to think of a way to take some of the God Dragon Marrow before she left.

Very quickly, she passed the Sacred Pond. Her gaze fell on the area in front of her as she unconsciously stopped in her tracks. An extremely astonished expression appeared on her face.
