Starting from the time when Mang traveled through Joy of Life, he fabricated the myths of the heaven

Chapter 517 Rescue (Part 2)
Linghu Chong noticed something was wrong, but Shen Qingzhou witnessed a scene of life and death.

Qu Feiyan tugged at Qu Yang's sleeve, her face full of reluctance. Although she was still a child, she knew clearly that the time for parting had come.

She lost both her parents at a young age and was raised by Qu Yang. Strictly speaking, Qu Yang may not be a good person. There may be loyal followers in the Demonic Cult, but the probability of them being good people is not very high.

It can only be described as genuine, but genuine without any restraint is terrifying. Even a righteous person would have to consider the constraints of morality and what they would do in the future, and would be able to restrain themselves to some extent.

Therefore, when there are costs associated with doing bad things, panning for gold in gold dust is different from panning for gold in excrement.

Of course, being able to break free from constraints and directly do bad things requires a mental shift that is far more determined than that of a demon who is inherently evil. It's no joke that being corrupted is ten times stronger.

Over the years, Qu Yang has cultivated his mind and character, and in Qu Feiyan's eyes, he is a good grandfather. Everyone has their own camp, and in Qu Feiyan's eyes, Qu Yang is the best grandfather.

She was also familiar with Liu Jing and others, and thought things would continue like this, but who could have imagined that she would encounter such a life-or-death situation.

She was feeling uneasy, but she didn't want her grandfather to worry, so she could only pretend to be normal. However, when Qu Yang exposed the truth and offered to send her to Luoyang, she could no longer keep up the pretense.

Fortunately, she still has the chance to cry. If it were the original storyline, she would have been killed by Fei Bin, and she wouldn't be suffering like this now.

"Feiyan, you're a young lady now. Grandpa won't be able to accompany you anymore. I originally planned to retire and cut off all contact with the martial arts world, but I never expected that I would still have to have contact with them."

You've met the Holy Maiden with me before. This time, when you go to Green Bamboo Lane and find her, she'll surely keep you there out of consideration for our past relationship.

Unfortunately, the title of "Demon Sect" is too dangerous for ordinary people. Otherwise, I would rather you live in anonymity and be an ordinary girl.

"But you are my granddaughter, there's no escaping it. You've already shown your face in front of the Songshan Sect, and apart from the Holy Maiden, no one else can protect you," Qu Yang said.

In fact, there are many people who can be protected, and even more who are not afraid of the Songshan Sect, but the reputation of colluding with the Demonic Sect is something that most people in the martial arts world do not want to bear.

Unless someone vouches for him with their reputation in the martial arts world, which Shen Qingzhou doesn't have at the moment, he can only vouch for him with his martial arts skills, but his reputation will be affected.

The Hengshan Sect was able to protect Liu Zhengfeng's family because Liu Zhengfeng was dead and had successfully retired from the criminal world, thus giving them a legitimate reason to stand firm.

Liu Zhengfeng was a famous hero. People believed in the sanctity of death and didn't hold grudges against others in the martial arts world. But Qu Yang was different; he came from the Demonic Sect, as did Qu Feiyan.

“Grandpa, Grandpa Liu, you’ll be alright,” Qu Feiyan said.

"Silly child, this is my jade pendant. Send it to the Liu family. As long as the Liu family isn't wiped out, you don't need to worry about their food, clothing, or daily necessities. Whenever you meet them, tell them..." Liu Zhengfeng also gave her a jade pendant and gave her some instructions.

“Leave it here, Fei Yan. And this, give it to the Holy Maiden. I think this news will prevent her from acting in vain,” Qu Yang said.

"Master Shen." With Liu Zhengfeng's voice, Shen Qingzhou reappeared. He had only helped out. Qu Yang and Liu Zhengfeng were entrusting their children to each other, but he hadn't listened. Although people in the real world are selfish, some of them still have a conscience.

"Have you finished explaining?" Shen Qingzhou said.

"I'm sorry to have troubled you, Master Shen. I'm entrusting my granddaughter to you now," Qu Yang said.

“Since I’ve accepted your offer, leave everything to me. Even if your leader, Dongfang Bubai, tries to stop me, it won’t matter,” Shen Qingzhou said.

"Master Shen is indeed a man of great courage. The Eastern Cult Leader is highly skilled and learned. I have known him before, but I am far inferior to him."

"Especially after the Eastern Cult Leader became the leader, he lived a secluded life, but every time he appeared, a change could be felt, which was truly terrifying," Qu Yang said.

Shen Qingzhou thought to himself, "How could it not change? It's a sex change." He had actually wondered if it might be the female version of Dongfang Bubai, but he couldn't find any prostitutes who resembled Dongfang Bubai. From the information he received, it seemed to be the most normal version of Dongfang Bubai.

"Brother." "Elder brother."

After they finished speaking, the two looked at each other, touched their palms together, and were about to unleash their inner strength. They decided not to continue this futile struggle, as their life force had dried up and there was no way to reverse the situation.

"Master Shen, my daughter Qu Feiyan begs you to help my grandfather and Grandpa Liu. I am willing to serve you as a servant to repay your kindness." However, upon seeing this scene, the tearful Qu Feiyan immediately knelt down before Shen Qingzhou.

This move was both urgent and sudden, much to the surprise of Liu Zhengfeng and Qu Yang. They were well aware of Qu Feiyan's thoughts, but they also knew that with her heart meridian severed, it was impossible. Who would willingly die if there was any hope?

"Feiyan, don't be so persistent," Qu Yang said. He was heartbroken to see Qu Feiyan kowtowing until her head was bleeding. Qu Feiyan was desperate and trying to grasp at a straw.

"You little girl are quite interesting. You seem quirky and clever, but you also have a strong sense of loyalty and righteousness."

"However, I don't lack servants, so your service as a slave seems useless to me." Shen Qingzhou's voice drifted over, and Qu Feiyan suddenly stopped kowtowing. Liu Zhengfeng and Qu Yang's previously helpless faces suddenly became quite interesting.

She was very clever, and Liu Zhengfeng and Qu Yang were also shrewd people. Normal people would naturally say that they were powerless to change the situation or that they were helpless in the face of Qu Feiyan's request.

But Shen Qingzhou didn't say anything. He didn't say anything at all. He only said that your reward was useless to him. What does that mean? They understand. He actually has a way.

Of course there is a way. It wouldn't be certain if we hadn't checked their pulses before, but now that these two people are incapable of taking action, yet they can still talk on and on for so long, playing the zither and doing all sorts of things, the Divine Illumination Scripture can save them.

However, he was also waiting. If he died, he would die. He had no regrets. Saving him was just like salvaging some of the sentiments he had when he was a teenager reading novels or watching movies.

He was willing to save Qu Feiyan, but as for the two old men, they weren't worth it. Liu Zhengfeng lacked a sense of responsibility, and Qu Yang was about the same.

"Brother Shen, I can be your wife. Although I'm still young, I know that all those stinky men like me. You saved my grandfather, so I'll be your wife." Qu Feiyan's words were a bit fierce.

It was this sentence that made Shen Qingzhou realize the reality that Qu Feiyan was a descendant of the Demonic Sect, and that she was definitely influenced by it to some extent, even if Qu Yang was unwilling, but habits cannot be changed.

Furthermore, Qu Feiyan is very clever. She has known about the subtle thoughts of the opposite sex since she was a child. If she grew up and was still in the Demonic Sect, who knows how many righteous young heroes would have been killed by her.

"Don't talk nonsense, Fei Yan," Qu Yang said.

"Little girl, do you not usually like practicing martial arts?" Shen Qingzhou ignored the old man and asked. "You saved my grandfather, so you made me practice martial arts, and I did. My grandfather said I have a lot of talent. I was just lazy, but I won't be lazy anymore," Qu Feiyan said. This statement revealed that she was a little cunning, but she was still a young girl.

"I guessed that was it. You're still young and only know about the struggle between good and evil. Your grandfather has protected you very well."

"You don't know, for someone like me, marrying me is like defying fate for most martial arts practitioners." Shen Qingzhou's words were a bit realistic.

What he said was the truth. Although marrying him was a bit dangerous, the benefits would definitely be numerous. Qu Feiyan wanted both. Although it wasn't her instinct, she might have had some ulterior motives. The young girl had many thoughts in her mind.

"Brother Shen, I'll listen to you. I'll do whatever you tell me to do." Qu Feiyan didn't want to understand. At this moment, she saw hope, and she was truly happy.

Not to mention her, Liu Zhengfeng and Qu Yang also remained silent. Death is a once-in-a-lifetime event, and although they had already accepted it, no one was willing to give up as long as there was a glimmer of hope.

"Brother Shen, there's no need to make things difficult for us." Liu Zhengfeng uttered these words with difficulty. He understood very well that even if he could save people, the things that would be needed would be extremely valuable.

“Brother Liu, we’ve known each other for many years, but it seems I still don’t understand you. You’re capable of taking life and death lightly,” Shen Qingzhou said.

"This..." Liu Zhengfeng was a little unsure how to put it.

"Brother Liu, I can save you, but from now on, you can no longer appear openly in the outside world," Shen Qingzhou said. He was already in a position where saving you was optional, so he felt no pressure.

"Of course," Liu Zhengfeng said. They didn't say anything about repaying them; some things are better done than said.

Shen Qingzhou wasn't afraid of helping for nothing. Judging from Liu Zhengfeng and Qu Yang's actions, they seemed to be grateful and repaying kindness. However, if he saved them, they would have to thank him more.

He also hoped that when he was not in Qixia Town, at least someone could help the escort agency if needed. This was how the debt of saving a life was used. He ran an escort agency, so he didn't have to worry about not being able to use up the debt of gratitude.

"Gather some dry firewood," Shen Qingzhou instructed Qu Feiyan. Shen Qingzhou had already come behind Qu Yang and Liu Zhengfeng and began to use his internal energy to probe.

After examining them, it was determined that they could be saved. The two people had been struck on the back, causing their heart meridians to rupture, but they were protected by strong internal energy, so the meridians were only broken.

Of course, that's true for Shen Qingzhou, but for everyone else, it would have been certain death. Otherwise, the two of them wouldn't have asked for help at all; it was just that Qu Feiyan stumbled upon the perfect opportunity.

He transferred some of his internal energy, and Liu Zhengfeng and Qu Yang immediately felt the difference. They felt much less pressure; the Divine Illumination Scripture was truly effective.

Suddenly, Shen Qingzhou struck out with his palm, and a stone the size of half a millstone exploded, creating a crater in the middle that landed directly on the firewood that Qu Feiyan had just brought back.

With another palm strike, a cloud of water mist appeared, swirling and falling into the stone pit. It then continued to swirl, and finally, with a flick of Shen Qingzhou's hand, the water was drawn away.

These moves are truly impressive, like magic. In fact, if it were just hitting a stone and sending it crashing onto dry firewood, that could be described as having profound skill and precise control over force.

But the way water sprayed directly from his hand was a bit like magic. Qu Yang and Liu Zhengfeng saw it clearly; it really did come out of his hand. How deep was his skill? It was terrifying.

As for being able to control water spheres, that's thanks to the Tiger Claw Hand, just like the Dragon Capturing Skill—a cool and powerful tool.

After the stones were cleaned, another clump of clear water fell into the stone pit. At the same time, several people felt a heat, and a ball of fire appeared on the dry firewood. Shen Qingzhou did not use a flint and steel. If it is said that it is particularly difficult for Xuanbing True Qi to transform into water, then it is a matter transformation.

He could do it, but there's no need to. It would consume too much of his energy, and it's not worth it just to show off. However, he has too much fluff in his system anyway.

However, sparks were easy to create. Once the temperature was high, a chemical reaction would naturally occur between the sparks and the dry wood. After the fire started, a ball of water swirled in his hand and then went directly to Qu Feiyan. The ball of water smashed a hole in a rock.

"You know how to kill fish, right? Take care of it," Shen Qingzhou said. Inside the water clump was a goldfish, a golden carp rewarded by the system.

This thing is very helpful in saving Liu Zhengfeng and Qu Yang. Right now, Qu Yang and Liu Zhengfeng are lacking in blood and energy. If you want to save them, unless Shen Qingzhou spends time using his internal energy to maintain their health, it will take at least a day. It would be better to just eat a golden carp to replenish their blood and energy.

Qu Feiyan is truly not to be underestimated. She looked at the golden carp, raised her hand and slashed, stunning the golden carp. Otherwise, it might have escaped.

Qu Feiyan also noticed the fish's extraordinary nature; its scales were incredibly hard—it was a treasure!

"It seems this young lady does a lot of work on a regular basis," Shen Qingzhou remarked.

"I am not as meticulous as a woman, so I have wronged Fei Yan," Qu Yang said. Qu Fei Yan is capable of working, and not lacking money does not mean she does nothing.

"If you eat my golden carp, you'd better find a way to return one to me in the future," Shen Qingzhou said.

"This is the Golden Carp?" Liu Zhengfeng asked in surprise after hearing the name Golden Carp.

"Brother Liu, you know him?" Shen Qingzhou was a little surprised.

"Of course I know. I once heard a friend mention such a rare object. I heard that only a master can catch this fish, and it is said that it is only seen once every ten years. I only regret that I have never seen it." Liu Zhengfeng really has a wide circle of friends, as he knows this.

As the water boiled, Qu Feiyan finished cleaning the fish and put it into the large water pit. The water was hot, and she already knew what Shen Qingzhou was doing.

"This smell... it makes me feel much better just by smelling it," Qu Yang praised.

The golden carp hadn't been pan-fried, so it would have been difficult to make the soup white unless it was cooked for a long time. However, the soup quickly turned white after the fish was put into the pot.

"Are you feeling any better?" Qu Feiyan gave Liu Zhengfeng and Qu Yang some fish soup, and the two of them felt a surge of energy returning to their bodies.

This is similar to Mei Niansheng, who was almost dead, but after drinking fish soup, he experienced a sudden surge of energy and directly taught Ding Dian the Divine Illumination Scripture and the Tang Poetry Sword Technique.

Their martial arts skills are likely inferior to Mei Niansheng's, and their injuries are not as severe as others. Although they cannot directly save lives, they can still replenish their blood and energy.
