Chapter 244 Yueyao
Chapter 244 Yueyao
"Who would have thought that I just accidentally peed and you happened to be hiding under the cliff, and then..."
Yue Yao couldn't help but blush when she heard the Rat King's words. She happened to catch a glimpse of Ye Qi, who couldn't help but smile. She immediately pointed the finger at him and scolded him harshly, "You young brat, do you think you can make fun of this Sect Master?"
As soon as the words fell, Yue Yao waved her hand and pulled out the sword. A silver light flashed across, and a "ding" sound was heard, which made Ye Qi's palm numb.
"Yixi Sword? How did it end up in your hands?"
"I……"
Seeing Ye Qi about to introduce himself as his master, the Rat King spoke before him, "Xiao Yaoyao, you know that your senior sister once came to my Demon Devouring Rat Clan. But when she left, she left this sword behind, saying she would come back later, but she never came back!"
"You didn't mention the sword last time!" Yue Yao naturally didn't believe what the Rat King said. She immediately glared at him with sharp eyes, and then continued to ask in an extremely oppressive tone.
"You didn't ask last time!"
"Who is this guy then? How did the Yixi Sword end up in his hands?"
"He's the young genius doctor I hired. He even cured my hidden illness. Unfortunately, Luosha barged in at the critical moment. I wasn't paying attention and got distracted, which is why I got attacked. And the Yixi Sword was chosen by him as its master. He's the treasure of your Qiongyang Sect, and you know it well!"
After hearing the last words of the Rat King, Ye Qi's original indifference to the entanglement between the two suddenly disappeared. In an instant, he felt an urge to ask his master about the matter. However, it seemed that his uncle-master had intentionally concealed his identity in his words just now, which made Ye Qi confused. He had to suppress his curiosity and put the matter aside for the time being!
"I'll believe your words for now, but since it's the treasure of my Qiongyang Sect, and my senior sister has passed away, the Yixi Sword must return to the hands of my Qiongyang Sect!"
"I won't give you this sword, so don't even think about it!"
"Don't worry! Since the Yixi Sword has recognized you as its master, even if I want to snatch it away by force, it won't change anything. So I hope you can go back with me and join the Qiongyang Sect!"
After thinking for a moment, Ye Qi frowned slightly and said nothing. To be honest, he really wanted to accept her invitation, because from her words just now, it seemed that she also knew the news of her master's death.
If it is said that the great-grandmaster knew this news because he had already determined that this would be the outcome when the master came to seek the secret technique, it would make sense. But how did Yue Yao, who claimed to be the leader of the Qiongyang Sect, know this news?
A creepy thought slowly emerged in Ye Qi's mind. Could it be that she or her people were among the people who came to attack and kill him and Junior Sister Meng Yi?
"Thank you for your kindness, Sect Master Yue. I will go to Qiongyang Sect, but not now. After I finish my work, I will bring the Yixi Sword with me to Qiongyang Sect!"
"It's up to you! Little guy, I just want to remind you that your arrival here is not a coincidence, but someone is secretly fanning the flames. This time, the powerful people from the Demon Prison invaded the Demon Devouring Rat Clan intentionally, which is the intention of the people behind the scenes. Having said that, I wish you good luck!"
After saying this, Yue Yao turned to leave, but seeing that the Rat King had no intention of leaving with her, she immediately asked, "The Demon Devouring Rat Clan has been captured by the Demon Prison, and those loyal subordinates have been rescued by my people. Come with me back to the foot of Qiongyang Mountain and find a place to stay temporarily. As for Huangfeng Mountain, I'm afraid it will be difficult to return for a while!"
"Boy! I'll be waiting for you at the foot of Qiongyang Mountain in Zhongzhou... Remember, never mention your master's name again, at least not until you have the strength to protect yourself!"
The Rat King's last few words were conveyed through soul communication. Although he was still a little worried about this kid, he had to let him experience the dangers of the world on his own so that he could grow. Finally, under Yue Yao's impatient urging, he left this place with her.
Ye Qi stood there stupidly, motionless. Thinking back to what happened before, his heart was filled with confusion and anxiety!
"Sir! It definitely can't be Madam's!" Shuang'er saw that Ye Qi was a little sad, then moved closer and said.
Ye Qi looked at Shuang'er's big, sparkling eyes, which revealed a sense of innocence and clarity. Although he also thought so, things always happened too coincidentally!
"Forget it! I don't want to worry about this anymore! Also, from now on, just call her Qingqing. There shouldn't be anything going on between her and Master Xiao!"
"Mr. Master believes that Madam won't have anything to do with that old fellow, and Shuang'er naturally believes it too. However... the Madam Shuang'er is referring to is Madam Ye!"
"You little girl, there is nothing between Qingqing and me. We are just friends. If you keep making up things like this in the future, I will spank your little butt!" Ye Qi said as he raised his hand, as if he was going to spank her butt.
Frost was so frightened that she subconsciously put her arms behind her back to cover her buttocks which had just begun to develop. A blush appeared on her cheeks!
"Let's go, if you're shy any longer, you won't be able to keep up with me!"
Shuang'er's awkward state was broken only when she heard Ye Qi's voice, and then she trotted towards Ye Qi.
"Sir! Why don't you want to go to that Qiongyang Sect right now? That woman is the Sect Master. If you follow her, you might even get special treatment."
"How about I go and talk to her and ask her to take you there?"
"Shuang'er just wants to stay with you, young master. If Shuang'er goes into that high-ranking family, she'll probably be bullied by those arrogant cultivators!"
"That's absolutely true. The people of Qiongyang Sect seem to be all domineering and overbearing. I remember when Shu'er and I first met the disciples of Qiongyang Sect, we saw them forcing a friend of mine to marry her good-for-nothing brother. Shu'er and I wanted to mediate, but we ended up fleeing with serious injuries and almost died there!"
Ye Qi recalled the first time he and Shu'er escaped death. At that time, their lives were really hanging by a thread. It was also the first time that Shu'er showed her fighting ability that far exceeded his own. He still felt scared afterwards. How dare he put a sword on her neck and threaten her to go with him all the way!
"Shuang'er seems to be saying something that suggests she wants to go to the Qiongyang Sect. Is she hiding something from me?"
While teasing Shuang'er, Ye Qi tapped her waist with his fingers. Shuang'er suddenly felt itchy and ran away, laughing loudly!
