Xiandao Linglong

Chapter 233: Cheated again!

"Ye Qi! You're crazy!"

Seeing that Ye Qi was hesitant to eliminate the problem completely, Yue Qingqing rushed to take action and killed another guard who wanted to tip off the enemy with a palm.

"Le Qingqing! I don't like friends lying to me, especially when you deliberately pretend to be so cold and indifferent. Although I don't know what happened to you last night, I want to tell you that we are friends. Even if there are huge difficulties ahead, I will accompany you to solve them together!"

Looking at Yue Qingqing's appearance, Ye Qi recalled the night when Junior Sister Meng Yi left without saying goodbye. It was just like that that a rift arose between the two of them suddenly, and then she left without saying goodbye. Thinking of this scene, Ye Qi couldn't help but shed a tear at the corner of his eye.

"Don't you think you're being really childish right now? What's the point of these words other than impressing yourself? To be honest, I really do want to leave. After I find out Miss Mu's whereabouts, I'm going to leave!"

"Your home is gone! Where else can you go?"

"What right do you have to control me? Let's go! While no one is watching, rescue that slave girl and find out where Miss Mu is. That will be considered as repaying your life-saving grace!"

"I never..."

"Snapped!"

Seeing that Ye Qi was still pestering her, Yue Qingqing slapped him in the face, then walked towards the city without saying a word.

But at this moment, a middle-aged man walked out from a corner not far ahead, clapping his hands and shouting, "Good! Good! Good! What a great show! Lovers will eventually face the end of separation. I love this kind of wild cat with its fur standing on end!"

"Master Xiao! What are you talking about? I am your slave, he? Not worthy!"

"Ha! Ha! Ha! You are truly a beauty, boy! In the world of immortal cultivators, if you have no money or power, even the woman you like will become someone else's plaything at your beck and call. But since the beauty wants to completely sever our ties, I will satisfy you. Keep walking west, and you will reach the prison where the female slaves are held. Pick the one you like!"

Master Xiao hooked his finger at the pointed chin of Le Qingqing who threw herself into his arms, then turned and left. He did not pursue the matter of killing the guard just now. After all, these mortals were like ants in his eyes, worthless. Compared with them, how could they be as interesting as the soft jade in his arms?

"Is this the real reason why you wanted to separate from us after finding out Miss Mu's whereabouts? If so, I also congratulate Miss Le on getting the life she wanted!"

Ye Qi looked at Le Qingqing who didn't even look back, feeling extremely angry. He didn't expect that after being together for so long, he thought her temperament had improved a little and she was finally willing to open her heart and try to trust her friends. However, he never imagined that she was still the Le Qingqing he first knew, the Le Qingqing who regarded everyone's kindness as ulterior motives and was extremely wary of everyone!

As Yue Qingqing's figure gradually disappeared from sight, Ye Qi did not stop and walked quickly in the direction pointed by Master Xiao.

Because of Master Xiao's instructions, the countless eyes that were secretly staring at Ye Qi along the way did not make any assassination moves. They just watched him walk step by step to the cell where the female slaves were held!

But he was only looking for this cell and couldn't recognize what the female slave who knew Mu Qingyao's whereabouts looked like.

"Xiao Qing! Is there a girl named Xiao Qing here? I'm here to rescue her!"

Ye Qi recalled the name that Yue Qingqing had told him, and immediately walked along the passage in the middle of the cell, shouting and wandering around!

"Young man! Get us out, please!"

"We want to go out too!"

"Xiao Qing? If it weren't for that shameless woman, how could we have ended up like this?"

Ye Qi looked at the female slaves who were stretching out their arms to grab him, and was so scared that he kept dodging. After observing for a while, although he did not see the person who called herself Xiao Qing, there was a female slave sitting quietly in the corner, cursing Xiao Qing with disdain!

"Miss! Do you know Xiao Qing?" Ye Qi hurriedly squatted down and asked the woman about Xiao Qing's whereabouts.

"It's okay that the women in this Qinghuafang are stupid, but how come the men are stupid too?"

"Miss, do you know where she is now? Please tell me, I have something important to discuss with her!"

"Looking for her? Ha! I'm afraid you've been deceived by her too?"

"What do you mean?" Ye Qi asked puzzledly.

"Xiao Qing! Xiao Qing! If you break down the name, isn't she the mistress of Master Xiao? I'm just curious, why would she lie to a man like you?" The female slave snorted coldly and said with a smile.

"Xiao Qing is...Master Xiao's man? Then Qingqing..." Ye Qi muttered to himself with a dazed look in his eyes.

After seeing that the man knew that he had been deceived, the originally impatient expression of the slave girl suddenly became much more energetic, as if she felt inexplicably happy to see that others had also been deceived.

"So it was my beloved who was deceived! That's terrible! Women in Qinghuafang only have two options: one is to spend every night in the residence of Master Xiao, and the other is to be ground into spices in Yanxianglou!"

"Then why are you guys locked up here?"

"We are dirty, despised by Yanxiang Tower, and looked down upon by Master Xiao. No one knows our fate. Why don't you let us go?" The female slave said, scratching Ye Qi's clothes with her fingers.

Ye Qi also looked at the women being held captive here. The number was probably even greater than the women who came with him when he first came. However, these people were not as lucky as them. They happened to encounter Lin Yi coming to rob the car, and in the chaos, they all found opportunities to escape!

"Look! You cultivators are all like this. Either you bully others by taking advantage of your power and treat us daughters from poor families as easy playthings, or you are hypocritical and keep saying that you are doing justice for the world, but it's just empty slogans. You should leave too!" After the female slave said this, she turned around and ignored Ye Qi.

After all, since childhood, I have admired those legendary immortal cultivators who wield three-foot-long swords and defend justice for ordinary people. But the irony is that the long swords of those cultivators I have seen are always placed on the necks of the weak, and never used to chop down cages and shackles!

After hearing these words, Ye Qi seemed to have an epiphany in his heart. For a moment, he didn't know how to refute the woman's words. Practitioners boasted that they were stronger than ordinary people, and they gradually lost themselves on the road of cultivating immortals. At this moment, when facing the bullying of the weak, he didn't even dare to swing the sword in his hand against evil!

Perhaps this is what the master said, the shackles in the hearts of the immortal cultivators in the world that really hinder them from achieving enlightenment!

"Miss, if you are teaching me that, then let me personally cut off these shackles!"
