With the help of Liu Liuqing, Leng Fanyun changed his clothes. The place where the Vermillion Bird and the Azure Dragon had been standing earlier was now covered in blood.
Liu Liuqing asked worriedly, ”Has the poison blood been cleared out?”
Leng Fanyun nodded his head, ”It's all over. It's just that my body is weak now. I'm afraid I don't have any more strength left. I'll have to trouble you then. ”
Liu Liuqing nodded and slowly channeled his thick and warm Qi into his body through his hands, following the flow of his blood through his four limbs and meridians.
Leng Fanyun's complexion slowly recovered. He pushed away Liu Liuqing's still hand and said, ”Enough.”
Liu Liuqing said anxiously, ”Right now, it's only right when you're free to move about. With this amount of inner strength, how are you going to deal with those people who are causing trouble?”
Leng Fanyun shook his head, ”I don't plan on cleaning them up. I just don't want A-Jue to worry about my health.”
Liu Liqing simply wanted to open it and see what this man was actually thinking. He said, ”You weren't wrong in that matter back then. Why do you have to blame yourself? Have you forgotten how difficult it was to establish the Devil's Palace back then? Now you want to give your arms to Ye Jue? He was already asleep at that time, and he didn't even know how hard it was for you. Why didn't you let me tell him the truth? ”
Leng Fanyun coughed once, and continued, ”If I had not stopped her in time, she would not have gone to the extreme. A-Jue was her blood related brother and sister. He adored her ever since they were young. I understand A-Jue, and I know I'm sorry. Furthermore, A-Jue sealed her soul away at that time with his cultivation. I knew that I had to do something. ”
Liu Liuqing looked stupefied, ”You're saying that you want to obtain the ancient ruins' Soul-Returning Pearl?” Leng Fanyun nodded his head, he then coughed for a long time and said: ”No matter what, I want to take that pearl back. Since she was reborn, A-Jue should be happier. Forget it, it's good that someone can still be happy. ”
He thought for a moment and said, ”The people from the Demon Palace are very complicated. Right now, the Vermillion Bird, Azure Dragon and the others are only anxious to find a replacement for me, so they decided to follow along with A-Jue. I'm afraid that they will give up on A-Jue in the future. They will support themselves as the leader, and A-Jue will be in danger. ”
He looked at Liu Liuqing and said, ”The three of us are brothers together. I don't want you to tell him my thoughts, and there's no need to tell him those useless words. I know that it's enough if I'm wrong, and it would also be better for him to blame all of his mistakes on me. You must remember to be with him. You must protect him from being used. ”
Liu Liuqing nodded helplessly, ”I understand.”
Leng Fanyun tidied up his clothes, making sure that there were no problems on the surface. He then walked towards the front hall with Liu Liqing following behind him.
When Leng Fanyun and Liu Liqing entered the front hall, the rowdy crowd that was originally like a market, suddenly quietened down.
The crowd couldn't help but open up a path for the man who was leading them from a small evil sect to a place that couldn't be underestimated. His body could not be considered strong. In the red embroidered robes of the Demon Palace, he was even a bit thin and weak. However, as he slowly walked along the obsidian paved road, he had the grace of a king, making people feel at ease and obedient from the bottom of their hearts.
Leng Fanyun slowly sat on the only gilded chair in the hall, the crowd all knelt down, and spoke respectfully to the person on the chair: ”This subordinate greets Lord Asgard Master, may Lord Palace Master Hong Lingtian unite the martial arts world.”
Leng Fanyun gently raised his hand, letting everyone stand up. He then looked at Ye Jue, who was below the stage, and calmly swept his gaze across him. He then looked at the Vermillion Bird beside him and said, ”Vermillion Bird, why were you making such a ruckus at the entrance of my chamber just now?
He had already been poisoned. His internal energy might not be as high as yours, but when he knelt on the ground and looked at the expressionless but dignified Leng Fanyun sitting in front of him, he couldn't say any of those words.
Leng Fanyun then turned to look at the Azure Dragon, ”The Vermillion Bird doesn't know what to say, so why don't you say it?”
The Azure Dragon looked at the Vermillion Bird that was kneeling beside him, its bewitching face had already turned pale from fright, and its entire body was trembling, unable to speak. It also knelt down, as if it was infected, and its entire body trembled uncontrollably as it said, ”Subordinate, this subordinate is only concerned about the Mistress, that's why I'm following the Vermillion Bird to the Asgard Mistress' quarters to visit her. ”Where the emotions come from …”
At this time, the Vermillion Bird also reacted. It ignored Ye Jue's gaze and followed the Azure Dragon's words, ”Right … That's right, it is exactly as the Azure Dragon said. We were worried that the Asgard Master had been in closed-door training for so many days, so we went to visit the Asgard Master.
It was clearly winter, but as the two of them knelt on the ice-cold jade stone, their faces were covered in sweat.
However, he heard the lazy but cold voice of the man from high above: ”Oh? Just to visit this Asgard Master? I heard from the two of you that I was poisoned and not in closed-door training? ”
