I Acknowledge You Now

Looking at Lu Qing'an's somewhat smug expression, Xiao Qingyi really wanted to say, "You're just bragging. How could anyone not know how strong you really are?"

However, he didn't say anything to Lu Qing'an. He still felt a little sorry for Lu Qing'an, as his disciple might have really been set up. He didn't know if the Holy Son of the Blood Phoenix Sect had really been injured by his disciple.

He suspected it was all an illusion, and that his two disciples might have entered the illusionary formation.

This matter undoubtedly brought trouble to Lu Qing'an because of his apprentice.

Lu Qing'an's Principle the opposite of Xiao Qingyi's. He felt that the schemer was originally trying to get rid of him, so he made fun of Xiao Qingyi's apprentice.

Perhaps the schemers already knew about his return from the Immortal Ruins the day he came back.

After all, he had interacted with Xiao Qingyi in public back then.

Secondly, there is also a trip to the Demon Willow Academy.

At that moment, one person came to mind.

Liu Xiyue.

I should see that old rascal again when I have time!

"So, according to you, the schemers were that mysterious organization, and your actions did indeed make them leave empty-handed. But is this just going to be left like this?" Xiao Qingyi asked, his brows furrowed.

"Of course, I'll find a way to locate them. Wait for good news from my apprentice. Also, I'm going to meet someone later to test the waters."

"Who?"

Liu Xiyue.

"Hmm? What do you want with him?"

"That old bastard has something on his hands that's making me a little suspicious. Have your youngest apprentice keep an eye on him. As soon as he returns to the academy, let me know, and we'll go and intercept him."

Xiao Qingyi narrowed his eyes. "Alright! By the way, you just said there was a very small chance it was the Blood Phoenix Sect. What if this schemer is really cunning, and it really is the Blood Phoenix Sect?"

"Therefore, even assuming the Blood Phoenix Sect is the one plotting this, we cannot allow them to achieve their goal; we must make them pay a price."

"Isn't this just being stubborn and getting stuck in two places? If you mess with the Blood Phoenix Sect Blood Phoenix Sect, they're happy; if you don't, things aren't right here."

"Just move and don't move, isn't that enough?" Lu Qing'an smiled mysteriously.

"???" Xiao Qingyi asked in confusion.

That night.

The sky above the Blood Phoenix Sect, which was originally quiet and peaceful, was suddenly shrouded in terrifying Demonic Qi!

A scene straight out of the apocalypse!

A terrifying Demonic Qi formed a barrier, enveloping the entire Blood Phoenix Sect.

Above the sky, the rumbling sound of thunder still echoed down.

A human voice was formed.

"I hate being schemed against the most. If you don't give me a satisfactory answer within three days, the Blood Phoenix Sect will be expelled."

Everyone in the Blood Phoenix Sect was startled by the sudden scene, and they all looked up at the sky, feeling utterly powerless.

The overwhelming pressure made all the experts of the Blood Phoenix Sect feel their legs go weak!

"No! This is the Eternal Night Demon Emperor's doing?!"

"Who in our sect offended this god of death?!"

"Ah! Are we going to die?!"

In the main hall of the Blood Phoenix Sect, Li Cangxuan looked at the barrier set up by his master and smiled bitterly.

Master... I'm still inside the barrier!

What am I supposed to do...?

"Demon Emperor Dugu! What... what's going on?! We didn't offend your master!"

Just then, a woman's voice sounded behind Li Cangxuan.

Li Cangxuan turned to look at the Blood Phoenix Sect's Holy Maiden and said with a wry smile, "I have something to tell you..."

In the courtyard, in the stone pavilion.

Xiao Qingyi looked at Lu Qing'an: "Ahem, if this matter has nothing to do with the Blood Phoenix Sect, they'll have to prove it themselves. It's a bit pitiful to think about."

Now he understands what Lu Qing'an meant by those words.

They won't actually harm the Blood Phoenix Sect; it's just a scare tactic.

"Don't you always say that it's better to make things difficult for others than to wrong yourself?"

"That makes sense. But your apprentice isn't... wait, you rascal, you're indirectly creating opportunities for your apprentice!"

Xiao Qingyi's mind raced, and the corner of his mouth twitched.

Lu Qing'an shrugged. "There's nothing I can do. Anyway, I have a fearsome reputation, so I'm not afraid of what others will say about me. Using this incident to create an opportunity for Little Xuanzi Blood Phoenix Sect within these three days is a good thing."

Upon seeing this, Xiao Qingyi shook his head and smiled.

It seems that Lu Qing'an had already planned how to deal with this matter when he sent Li Cangxuan to the Blood Phoenix Sect.

Use their strength against them!

Regardless of whether the Blood Phoenix Sect was the schemer, they used this opportunity to allow their disciple to have more contact with the Blood Phoenix Sect's Holy Maiden.

Even if they can't prove their innocence, the Blood Phoenix Sect will definitely ask Li Cangxuan to intercede for them in order to survive.

The Holy Maiden of the Blood Phoenix Sect had more contact with Li Cangxuan.

"Well, you scheming lot are all incredibly cunning..."

Xiao Qingyi muttered to himself.

Lu Qing'an smiled without saying a word.

A chill lingered in my heart.

If nothing unexpected happens, there's a 99% chance that the mysterious organization is behind it all.

Hiding in the shadows and plotting, huh? We'll find you all sooner or later and uproot you completely.

The following morning.

it's clear.

Xu Xuanyu got up early, grabbed his tools, and started working.

Now he has become a gardener, and he is becoming more and more skilled at some of the tasks.

"Uncle, we're going to the academy."

"Okay, go ahead."

"Uncle Xu, keep it up! Keep your spirits up, things will definitely get better!" Sun Minzi jogged up to Xu Xuanyu Xu Xuanyu, looked straight into his eyes, and encouraged him.

Xu Xuanyu looked at the youthful and energetic Sun Minzi and nodded with a smile.

In the past few days, Sun Minzi has come to chat with him every day. In the middle of the conversation, she would suddenly encourage him, telling him that he must cheer up and that as long as he doesn't give up, he will definitely recover his cultivation.

The unwavering determination on her little face suggested that she wanted to see him recover even more than he did.

"No wonder my brother-in-law took her in as his goddaughter; she's such a kind-hearted child."

After watching the children teleport away, Xu Xuanyu let out a shout, struck a cool pose with a broom, and then, imagining himself as a cultivator, quickly swept the floor.

He was already panting heavily after only sweeping up one incense stick.

"I'm so weak... I need to rest for a while..."

He was just about to sit down when suddenly a pair of large hands landed on his shoulders.

"Hey kid, wanna chat for a bit?"

Xu Xuanyu turned his head and saw that the person with his arm around his shoulder was Xiao Qingyi.

At that moment, Xiao Qingyi's grinning face was very close to his, causing him to shiver involuntarily.

Could it be that the big shots in the Demon Domain Realm have some kind of peculiar fetish?

I currently have no cultivation...

A sudden tightness!

"Senior, what are you talking about?" Xu Xuanyu asked, trying to appear calm.

"I'm just a little curious, why do they all say you're a lot like me? And how exactly did you manage to gain the approval of Xue Tianfei and Wang Duanshan? Knowing them as I do, they wouldn't just do that out of pity because your cultivation was crippled."

They're all Old Devil; they won't sympathize with a mere kid from the Immortal Ruins.

Even though this kid is Lu Qing'an's former brother-in-law, he wouldn't do this.

"It's strange, Miaomiao and the others say I look like you, but I don't think I'm as old as you, nor as ugly... cough cough, senior, I'm sorry, I misspoke..."

Xiao Qingyi: "..."

Was this kid doing it on purpose or was it truly accidental?

He stared intently at Xu Xuanyu.

"You little brat, you've got some nerve! You've been crippled, and you still dare to speak to a Peak Great Emperor Realm expert like that?"

"Senior... my biggest flaw is my mouth; I've offended countless people..."

"No wonder he used you as a whetstone, I acknowledge you!"

Xiao Qingyi patted Xu Xuanyu on the shoulder.

Xu Xuanyu: "???"
