Chapter 322 The Master of Metaphysics 8
Qingyu stepped directly into the warehouse, her expression indifferent, surrounded by an aura of malevolence, making her appear as if she were shrouded in a thick fog.
"Come out here, stop pretending to be so high and mighty."
The black mist paused, and soon a sinister laugh echoed from the darkness, "Little girl, you've got some skills, but today you'll also perish here."
After saying that, countless dark figures rushed towards Qingyu.
Qingyu remained calm and composed, forming hand seals, and golden light emanated from her body, dispelling the dark shadows.
This scene shocked Yuan Ling'er, who was hiding in the shadows, and she was stunned for a long time. She was not stupid and could tell at a glance that Qingyu's cultivation level was now very high!
At least in her previous life, it would have been extremely difficult for her to obtain the golden imprint!
But how is this possible? !
In the chaos, Yuan Ling'er's mind went blank, but out of the corner of her eye, she caught sight of something on Qingyu's neck. Her pupils dilated, and she couldn't help but tremble—
That's—her jade pendant! That jade pendant!
How did they end up with Qingyu?!
On the open ground, the evil energy tried to attack several times but was neutralized. Just as the evil cultivator appeared and was about to attack personally, Yuan Ling'er couldn't help but rush in, wanting to ambush Qingyu, but accidentally blocked an attack from the evil cultivator.
Taking advantage of the opportunity, Qingyu counterattacked, striking the evil cultivator with a talisman. The evil cultivator screamed and rolled away.
Yuan Ling'er fell to the ground injured, glaring at Qingyu with hatred, "You thief..."
As soon as he finished speaking, two people suddenly rushed out from the side. One of them, a man in a Taoist robe, looked at Qingyu with displeasure and said, "Fellow Taoist, how could you hurt someone?"
Instead, the man next to him stared intently at Qingyu, his eyes filled with amazement—
Zhou Zhanghui had always known that his eyes were somewhat special, and he used to hate it because seeing inappropriate things from time to time felt really wonderful.
But today, for the first time, he was grateful to his eyes!
What words can be used to describe this woman in front of me?
She wore a moon-white dress, simple yet elegant, which perfectly accentuated her graceful figure.
A gentle breeze caressed her, and her skirt fluttered like a cloud.
Her skin was as white as snow, glowing softly in the sunlight, and her eyebrows and eyes were as exquisite as if they were drawn with fine brushstrokes, so delicate that it was impossible to look away.
Her eyes, clear and bright like autumn water, seemed to hold the stars and the sea. Her nose was delicate and straight, and her lips were like cherries, naturally red without any makeup.
She gently brushed aside her wind-blown hair, her movement natural and alluring. The surrounding noise instantly quieted down, and time seemed to stand still.
In that instant, Zhou Zhanghui felt as if he were in a painting, witnessing a meeting of the mortal world and a fairyland. He could never forget that one glance.
He swallowed shamefully, feeling like a scoundrel. Hearing Mu Yin's words beside him, he instinctively retorted, "Mu Yin! Don't talk nonsense! It's clearly not this young lady's fault!"
Mu Yin was taken aback, then frowned in displeasure, "You're not from the Xuanmen, you don't understand."
“Even if I don’t understand, I can see that she’s full of malice towards this young lady.” Zhou Zhanghui pointed at Yuan Ling’er on the ground, a flash of disgust crossing his eyes. Seeing that she was still staring at him blankly, his goodwill towards her plummeted.
Nymphomaniac!
Yuan Ling'er never expected to see her former companion under these circumstances, and the man who had once been gentle and considerate to her was now pointing at her and calling her a villain...
Yuan Ling'er lowered her head with complicated emotions, her fingers clenched tightly, feeling resentful.
Things have changed, everything has changed. They shouldn't have appeared so early.
"I meant no harm. I was just... accidentally pushed out by something." Yuan Ling'er was adept at this kind of lie. She knew that Zhou Zhanghui didn't understand metaphysics and magic, so he would definitely not suspect her.
As for Mu Yin... he had always been in love with her. In his previous life, he said that he felt an unusual closeness to her the first time he saw her, and he would definitely not expose her now.
However, Yuan Ling'er's thinking was too simplistic. Before anyone else could say anything, Mu Yin instinctively retorted, "What pushed you? Even if you might have accidentally fallen, you can't just make things up, can you?"
Yuan Ling'er: "...?"
Yuan Ling'er looked at Mu Yin with disbelief, while the latter seemed confused. "Did I say something wrong?"
Yuan Ling'er: "...You"
She was speechless for a moment and couldn't come up with any other rebuttal.
The scene was a little awkward when Qingyu suddenly burst out laughing.
She naturally recognized the two men in front of her; they were both male supporting characters. One was Yuan Ling'er's capable assistant in her previous life, and the other was Yuan Ling'er's devoted protector.
She just hadn't expected that these two people would have such personalities, especially Zhou Zhanghui. The plot only said that the other person's eyes seemed to have the ability to see ghosts, but why did she feel that the other person's eyes were very bright when he looked at her?
It seems like they've seen through my disguise?
However, Qingyu didn't care about this. Even if she saw through it, it wasn't a big deal. The reason she was too lazy to remove this layer of disguise was simply because she wanted to stir up trouble secretly.
"You two are..."
Seeing the beauty's puzzled expression, Zhou Zhanghui took the lead in introducing himself: "I am Zhou Zhanghui, and this is my friend Mu Yin. We are both from the Xuanmen sect. We noticed an unusual aura here today and came to investigate."
As he spoke, he shyly stole glances at Qingyu, each look filled with bashfulness and timidity, which gave Muyin, who was standing next to him, goosebumps.
Qingyu's eyebrows twitched slightly, a smile appeared on her face, and she nodded slightly, "Nice to meet you."
Zhou Zhanghui immediately blushed, feeling that the beauty's smile was like a hundred flowers blooming, making him dare not look at her, yet making it impossible to look away.
But when he noticed the expressions of the other two, he realized something was wrong—why were they both so indifferent?
Are you blind?
Or……
An idea popped into Zhou Zhanghui's mind, his heart raced, and his gaze became even more intense. He secretly began to rejoice, and dared not look at the beauty for too long, for fear that the two people beside him would notice his special nature.
This hidden beauty, visible only to him, ignited a burning passion within him, as if he were being roasted over a fire, his ear tips turning a deep red, almost dripping blood.
At this moment, Yuan Ling'er barely managed to stand up. She stared intently at Qingyu, her gaze lingering on Qingyu's neck. "This jade pendant is mine. Why did you steal it?"
She didn't want to say it, but now that everything has changed, she's scared.
Why not take a gamble?
Qingyu had considered that Yuan Ling'er would come to snatch the jade pendant, but she never expected that this person would be so shameless as to distort the truth.
She scoffed, her eyes filled with contempt and arrogance. She played with the jade pendant in her delicate hand. She was plain-looking, but her hands were exceptionally beautiful, each finger distinct and white as scallions.
Qingyu said with a half-smile, "Yours? This has been with me since I was a child, how could it be yours?"
Mu Yin frowned and looked at Yuan Ling'er, "Do you have any evidence?"
Yuan Ling'er's eyes reddened with anxiety, "Brother Muyin, don't you believe me?"
She always knew she was good-looking, and that this ugly woman in front of her was definitely not as good-looking as her.
