Chapter 137: Such a Thing Actually Happened?

Translator: Simple MTL Editor: Simple MTL

Liu Changgong called out, “Qi’er…”

Liu Changgong wanted Qi’er to thank Lord Xinghe on behalf of Xia’er.

A moment later, Qi’er floated out of the inner room…

Ever since Li Li entered the room, he had always remembered the Sacred Lord Brahma’s words.

He didn’t say anything and couldn’t do anything. He could only silently observe everything in the small courtyard.

He had heard of ‘Senior Liu’ countless times and felt that he was too young.

Too young.

Not only did he have the temperament of a young man, but he also seemed to have a very young bone age. There were no traces of disguise.

Furthermore, from the looks of his cultivation, he seemed to be a mortal. There wasn’t the slightest bit of spirit energy fluctuation in that Senior’s body.

Li Li couldn’t help but mutter to himself, ‘Could it be that this Senior wasn’t an expert in cultivation?’

Did he only rely on his superb skills in other areas to make the Brahma Sacred Lord respect him so much?

While Li Li was thinking, he caught a glimpse of an innocent and romantic little girl floating out of the room from the corner of his eye.

He subconsciously turned his head over.

In just an instant, Li Li’s pupils constricted.

Long white hair, two-colored eyes, and a terrifying aura.

Li Li instantly recalled the series of terrifying scenes he saw last night.

The Black Wolf Demon Emperor had perished, and the flying ship had exploded. It was still vivid in his mind.

Li Li’s heart was filled with fear as he cried out involuntarily, “Demon, Senior, she is a demon…”

Before Li Li could finish his words, he realized that his body could no longer move.

His mouth could not move at all.

Sacred Lord Brahma and Liu Changgong, who had been chatting idly, looked at him.

Lord Xinghe looked at him coldly with a livid expression.

Senior Liu was even more furious and worried.

Only then did Li Li remember that Sacred Lord Brahma had told him not to speak carelessly.

In his panic, he had forgotten not to speak carelessly.

Li Li instantly broke out in cold sweat.

It was over. He had caused trouble.

“Are you still not going out?” Sacred Lord Brahma growled.

Li Li’s mind was blank at this moment, and his body had already recovered the ability to move.

He walked out of the small courtyard like a walking corpse.

After Li Li’s figure disappeared, the Brahma Sacred Lord turned around and said to Liu Changgong, “Senior, the people I brought here don’t know etiquette. I was careless in this matter, and I will take care of it.”

Liu Changgong only wanted Qi’er to thank him on behalf of Xia’er, but he did not expect her to suffer such an unexpected disaster.

She did not have any reaction when Qi’er was called a demon.

Obviously, Qi’er had been called that many times and was already numb to it.

Looking at the dazed Qi’er, Liu Changgong was burning with anger, but there was nothing he could do.

He was just an ordinary mortal. What could he do?

He could only work hard to increase Xia’er and Qi’er’s strength, using her strength to shut up those gossipers.

Thinking of this, Liu Changgong calmed down and said indifferently, “It doesn’t matter. I hope Mr. Xinghe won’t bring him here in the future. I don’t want to see him appear here again.”

Lord Xinghe’s eyes flashed and he nodded crazily.

“Yes, Junior understands Senior’s meaning.”

“Today, the people I brought offended Senior. I don’t have the face to bother Senior anymore. I’ll take my leave now.”

Liu Changgong waved his hand, and Lord Xinghe left slowly.

Lord Xinghe quickly left the courtyard.

Lord Xinghe looked at Li Li, who was standing at the door, waiting for him foolishly. He said with a hint of mockery in his anger, “The chosen one of the Li family? Hehe, that’s all there is to it.”

…

“Qi’er, don’t mind what that person said. In the future, this kind of thing won’t happen again.”

Liu Changgong consoled Qi’er gently.

This time, Liu Changgong was really furious.

The reason why he didn’t bring Qi’er out often was because he was afraid that others would gossip and hurt Qi’er with words when they saw Qi’er’s appearance.

So far, only Wang Yuyan, Yu Hongye, and a few others had seen Qi’er. Even the last time they went to the Convention of Ten Thousand Immortals, Qi’er had always been masked.

Sacred Lord Brahma and the others were knowledgeable and could see the problems in Qi’er’s body, so Liu Changgong did not ask Qi’er to specifically avoid them.

However, he never expected that the thing that worried him the most today would happen.

Liu Changgong felt his heart ache when he thought of Qi’er’s dull look when she heard that person call her a demon.

His heartache was because Qi’er might not understand the meaning of a demon.

Qi’er had already suffered a serious psychological trauma. Under his recent recuperation and care, she had almost fully recovered. Who knew how much trauma this had caused in Qi’er’s heart?

Cultivators were existences whose minds were different from ordinary people. How could they be so shocked?

Liu Changgong couldn’t figure it out.

Moreover, Qi’er was so cute. How could he call her a demon?

Liu Changgong took advantage of the situation to pick Qi’er up and comforted her.

Qi’er just smiled foolishly.

…

In the Grand Moon Sect.

In a quiet room.

Wang Yuyan and the Venerable Zhu Zhao were quietly waiting for the return of the Brahma Sacred Lord and Li Li.

The two of them were puzzled. They were only confirming if Senior Liu’s artifact spirit was the demon that Li Li had mentioned. Why had it been so long and still not returned?

Speaking of the devil, ripples of water-like spatial ripples appeared in the air.

Following that, two figures appeared. They were Sacred Lord Brahma and Li Li.

“Master.”

“Senior.”

Wang Yuyan and adept Zhu Zhao’s eyes lit up as they greeted.

Sacred Lord Brahma casually threw a person who looked like mud onto the ground with a livid expression.

There was silence.

Wang Yuyan and Venerable Zhu Zhao looked at the strange atmosphere and asked carefully, “Master, how is the confirmation of the demon matter?”

Sacred Lord Brahma nodded and said indifferently, “The demon mentioned by this guy is Senior Liu’s immortal artifact spirit.”

“Oh.”

Wang Yuyan and Venerable Zhu Zhao’s hearts immediately relaxed. Since she wasn’t the rumored successor of the Heavenly Demon Sect, then the Grand Moon Sect was safe.

However, when they saw Li Li’s expression as if he had lost his soul, as well as the expressionless face of Lord Xinghe, they couldn’t help but sigh.

It seemed that things weren’t that simple.

“Master, did something happen?”

Lord Xinghe sneered and shifted his gaze to Li Li, who was lying limply on the ground. He said coldly, “Then you’ll have to ask this proud son of Heaven of the Li family.”

Li Li only woke up when he heard Sacred Lord Brahma’s voice.

His entire body trembled violently and his face turned pale.

“Senior, I…”

Venerable Zhu Zhao saw that the atmosphere was not right and warmed up the atmosphere:

“What exactly happened? Tell me and we’ll discuss it together.”

Lord Xinghe said slowly, “I really have nothing to say.”

After a few seconds of silence, Lord Xinghe continued, “Before entering Senior Liu’s courtyard, I specifically instructed this person not to speak. In the end, he quickly forgot what I said and called Senior Liu’s artifact spirit a fiendish demon in front of Senior Liu. How outrageous! He was simply audacious to the extreme. Not only did he anger Senior Liu, I also lost face.”

“If not for Senior Liu being an expert and not willing to lower himself to our level, there might have been two corpses here.”

“There’s no doubt that Senior Liu has that kind of strength.”

Everyone exclaimed:

“What? Something like this actually happened?”
