Immortal Cultivation and Life-Saving Guide

Chapter 48 Everyone has their own thoughts

Later, Qin Feng and Lian Gouqie were also released.

"Which sect did the deceased elder belong to?" Lian Gouyu sat on his chair, his legs crossed, and he was not staying still. "Why are people from several sects interrogating me?"

"Elder Shi is a cultivator from the Wanjian Sect," Qin Feng picked up the teapot and poured himself a cup of tea, "but he was assigned to the Huaixin Sect as a resident elder."

"So he was from the Wanjian Sect and died in the Huaixin Sect," Lian Gouqie repeated. Wei Xi nodded, "The person who did it must be from the Huaixin Sect!"

Qin Feng took a sip of tea and put down the cup. "What do you mean by that?"

Lian Gouqie sneered, "What do you mean by that? How can I let others sleep peacefully on my bed?"

"How can I allow others to sleep soundly beside my bed?" Qin Feng corrected.

"You're educated, so you're right," Lian Gou said nonchalantly. "But if you ask me, it was the Huaixin faction that did it. Just you and Wei Xi, how could you two sneak up on such a master?"

Lian Gou's eyes flickered between Wei Xi and Qin Feng. "I've learned everything about the Qingcheng Sect's strength... How could a newly-minted disciple of the Qingcheng Sect kill a cultivator from the leading sect?"

"Don't look down on the poor young man," Qin Feng said calmly, "when I become the world's number one swordsman, don't look so sad."

"Wei Xi, what do you think?" Lian Gou Xie didn't waste any more words with Qin Feng. He felt that Wei Xi was very thoughtful and might be good at this kind of thing.

Upon hearing this, Wei Xi withdrew his gaze from scanning Qin Feng and Lian Gou's wrists, "What is the reputation of the Wanjian Sect and the Huaixin Sect?"

"The Wanjian Sect is the foremost sect in the world of immortal cultivation. It has numerous disciples and countless seniors with profound cultivation," Qin Feng summarized the information he had heard. "The Wanjian Sect's cultivators are committed to upholding righteousness and protecting the people. Stories related to them are all about slaying demons and eliminating evil."

Before Wei Xi could say anything, Lian Gouqie interrupted, "So, does that mean there's something wrong with the Huaixin faction?"

Wei Xi looked at Lian Gouqie with pity, who was unaware that he had bumped into the muzzle of a gun.

Qin Feng smiled wryly, "Huaixin Sect? They cultivate immortality but not morality. There's serious factional strife within the sect. They talk a lot about morality, but in reality, they lack any sense of shame."

"Take the young disciples for example. Once they enter the Huaixin Sect, they must clearly explain their talents and family background. If they have cultivated for many lifetimes and have decent aptitude, then it's not a big deal. But if they are just ordinary people with average talent, then they can expect to be bullied."

Hearing this, Wei Xi thought of the soft-spoken Ge Cang, whose hands were covered with frostbite.

But the talents of the disciples brought up by Huaixin Sect can’t be too bad, so Ge Cang’s lack lies in his background?

"Disciples of the Huaixin Sect practice a life-and-death struggle, with winner-takes-all situations common. Most of the sect's elders are also sanctimonious individuals."

Lian Gou was a little surprised. After all, Qin Feng left him with the impression of a well-educated official. How could he comment on anyone or anything so openly? "What are you doing?"

Wei Xi, who was watching the show, suddenly felt that something was wrong.

Qin Feng sneered, "I joined the Huaixin Sect from the beginning, so I naturally know their details. As for the elders, I chopped off the fingers of an elder who touched me."

Wei Xi and Lian Gou Xie were both a little angry, but they were speechless and didn't know what to say.

Qin Feng didn't care and waved his hand, "I'm not a coward who allows others to bully me. That old guy dodged quickly, otherwise he would have lost more than just his fingers." Since Qin Feng said this, it meant that this incident did not leave any lifelong shadow on her.

"Otherwise, you'd say this old guy is unpresentable," Qin Feng said mockingly, "When I first joined the Huaixin Sect, I was a direct disciple of an elder, and he treated me with great respect."

"When I was no longer taken seriously, he knew that my parents were both dead and felt that I didn't dare to say a word when I was bullied. That's when he got bolder." Qin Feng's tone was full of disgust when he said this, while Wei Xi silently remembered a cultivator from Huaixin Sect who was missing a finger.

It’s not impossible for me to find a way to chop off his hands next time we meet.

"There are all kinds of beasts out there," Lian Gou's voice turned cold. "Next time you see him, just let me know. Wei Xi and I will help you teach him a lesson."

Wei Xi also showed an expression of agreement, but she thought of Deputy General Du in Qin Feng's story - the superiors entrusted the last bloodline to him, but he sent Qin Feng to a sect with questionable reputation. Was it an unintentional mistake or did he have other motives?
Seeing Qin Feng's expression of regret for not chopping off the other person's hand, Wei Xi secretly took note of this incident.

"You want to teach someone a lesson," Wei Xi said, "but are you going to cultivate immortality?"

"That's true!" Lian Gou said seriously, "I've been wandering for half my life. Now that the opportunity to join a sect is right in front of me, I'm naturally eager to join."

Lian Gouqie pointed to the next door. He was used to being a thief and was just worried that there might be ears on the other side of the wall.

Wei Xi knew that Lian Gouqie could not kill Elder Shi at all, and the real thing was to coax him into joining the Qingcheng Sect. There was nothing wrong with just going along with him at this time.

"Have you told the master?" Qin Feng believed that he and Lian Goujie had been through life and death together once and already regarded him as a brother, so he was quite concerned about this matter.

"When your leader saw someone willing to join the Qingcheng Sect, he immediately agreed. But the one holding the sword next to him said he would wait until the matter with Elder Shi was resolved."

Lian Gou Xie told the head of the Magic Sect about this last night, and kept calling him an old immortal, which made the head of the Magic Sect dizzy. If Lin Yinghao had not stopped him, I am afraid that Lian Gou Xie would have become a disciple of the Qingcheng Sect last night.

However, this matter also fulfilled Lian Gou's wish. After all, he only agreed to let Wei Xi and them return to Qingcheng Sect in order to avoid the officials from Baoxiang City.

Now that the lie has been told, it is difficult for Wei Xi and the others to turn against them, and Lian Gou Xie will naturally not meet with the officials from Baoxiang City.

I just don't know what this foxy guy Wei Xi is planning. Lian Gou Xie has seen the girl's tricks, so he naturally feels that Wei Xi has set a big trap for him.

Lian Gouqie looked at Wei Xi with a deep gaze and Qin Feng with a high level of fighting power, and felt that these two people would be difficult to deal with in the future in the world of immortal cultivation.

"Wei Xi, come back to the point, do you think Lian Gou's guess is correct?" Qin Feng shifted the focus of the conversation back to Elder Shi Ke.

"After you mentioned the Huaixin Sect, I felt that this matter was closely related to the Huaixin Sect," Wei Xi said after a moment's hesitation. "If Elder Shi is truly a practitioner of the Wanjian Sect's creed, then it's not impossible that he and the Huaixin Sect are at odds."

"I just don't know if your people are that smart," Lian Gouqie crossed his legs again, "I just hope this doesn't get me involved."

"After all, the opera contains lyrics about taking the blame," Lian Gouqie said meaningfully, "and it never snows in Baoxiang City."
