Xingzhou Liudao Alliance Branch.

Xiang Rong stood with his hands in his hands, listening to the report of his subordinates, with a satisfied look on his face.

"So, after you have seen Qin Zhen kill the demon beast with your own eyes, you were not welcomed by the villagers and left the village directly?"

"Yes, my subordinates saw it with their own eyes." The subordinate said respectfully.

"Hmph," Xiang Rong snorted coldly, "It's still too naïve, wouldn't it be good to obediently present the secret treasure, so I don't have to waste so much effort...... But that's fine, it's also interesting to see that no matter what she does, she will be misunderstood, and in the end, everyone will betray her relatives and leave her, so she can only come to me. ”

As he spoke, he muttered again: "But she can kill so many demon beasts by herself, it seems that she still hides her strength." She's growing a little too fast, and she's going to have to find a way to curb it. ”

The subordinate asked at the right time: "Subordinate to tell Sect Master Shen?" Qin Zhen and her junior brother still have to go to Qianyuan Sect to continue the competition, and when the time comes, if she encounters some danger in the secret realm, she will definitely save her junior brother, so that we will have a chance to start. ”

Xiang Rong frowned.

He didn't want Shen Qifeng to see Qin Hao's true strength, it was best to let Shen Qifeng lose his guard against Qin Hao all the time. After all, between him and Shen Qifeng, Qin Hao would definitely choose Shen Qifeng, who was better resolved on the surface, to take revenge first.

As long as Shen Qifeng is careless to Qin Hao, then Qin Zhen will have a greater probability of solving Shen Qifeng, and no matter who survives at that time, he can make no effort and just wait to sit behind the scenes to reap the benefits of the fisherman.

Thinking of this, he relieved his brows: "No need, let her grow up for a while, anyway, no matter what, she can't get past me." If she is really capable, I will wait for her to come to see me with Shen Qifeng's head, and save me from doing it myself. ”

"But you should pay more attention to her. If she returns to Xinzhao Village, you can release some more demon beasts. ”

"Yes." Subordinates receive orders.

At this time, in the village of Shinzhao.

Qin Zhen and the three of them stood at the gate of the village, and opposite them, a group of villagers held all kinds of farm tools and glared at them fiercely.

"We're not here to hurt you." Ye Yousheng hurriedly explained, "Some of you are seriously injured, and you can't just apply medicine, if you don't have our help, they will all die." ”

"Phew," a middle-aged man spat at them, "we're going to die, and we're not going to be deceived by you two-faced bastards again." Even if we die, we will die on the land that raised us, instead of being deceived by you to be slaves, pigs and dogs are not as good! ”

Ye Yousheng was a little anxious.

He could see the badly injured men lying on the straw mats behind them, breathing weakly. Their loved ones were weeping around them, but even then, no one had asked them for help.

The materials left by Qin Zhen were still well placed in the middle of the road, and no one moved them at all.

Ye Yousheng pursed his lips: "However, she saved you." If it weren't for her, your entire village would not exist now. She doesn't need your gratitude, but you can't ignore her efforts because of her soft-heartedness, at least express your gratitude to her......"

Before he could finish his words, the middle-aged man smashed the farm tool in his hand and shouted, "Okay! Then you will kill us now! Kill! Do you think we are scarce for you to save? Who doesn't know your dirty tricks to fool us once and want to fool us a second time? Go as far as you can! ”

"......" Ye Yousheng tried to control himself and not let himself get too angry.

The sadness that could spread from the bottom of his heart wrapped around his neck, making it impossible for him to breathe. He turned his head to see Qin Hao, wanted to find a way to rescue him from Qin Hao, and wanted Qin Hao to tell him that this world should not be like this.

What should the world be like?

Everyone can live in harmony, and everyone can live happily. People will help others and be grateful for their help.

Everyone will strive for a better future.

But......

The scenes he sees now are all reminding him that this is not the world he imagined.

And the god he believed in, the only god who could give him direction, now watched it all calmly, as if it had long been commonplace.

For the first time, Ye Yousheng felt a bitter chill in Qin Hao's calm gaze.

Isn't there anything he can do to change the outcome of his previous life? But why do people hate each other so much, and why can't they communicate well? Why not go to the culprit for revenge, but crush the hearts of well-wishers and trample them under your feet?

A slightly cold hand rested softly on his shoulder.

Qin Zhen attached to his ear and said gently, "Ah Sheng, do you know now why I am reluctant to take you out?" ”

"I don't want you to see this, I want you to be free to learn what you like and do what you want to do, and not be affected by this."

"I know you're always angry with me, think I'm not honest enough with you, and always hide a lot of things from you. But knowing these things won't do you any good, Ah Sheng. I've seen it with my own eyes, so I don't want you to see it again. Not everything has to be figured out to be complete. ”

Ye Yousheng felt that his hands and feet were trembling.

He couldn't imagine that his senior sister had grown up alone in such an environment. When he first saw her, she was the most powerful person in the Immortal Cultivation Realm, so much so that he never thought that Senior Sister would encounter these things.

He took a deep breath and looked at Qin Hao: "Senior sister, there is only one thing I want to do, that is, you will never be misunderstood, and you will always be admired by others." I don't have much more to do than that. You say you want me to choose freely, then my choice is this, and I will not compromise. ”

Qin Hao blinked, her hand slid over his shoulder and down his back, and finally hidden under the wide sleeve.

She smiled and looked very calm: "Okay, senior sister believes in Ah Sheng." ”

Ye Yousheng looked at Heng Mingzhi again: "Heng Mingzhi, let's go and heal them first, save their lives first, and then slowly solve the rest after they recover." ”

Heng Mingzhi glanced at Qin Zhen and saw that she didn't react, so he nodded, and followed Ye Yousheng to go past those villagers to save the people on the straw mat behind.

"You are not allowed to come!" The middle-aged man gritted his teeth, snatched a wooden stick from the hand of the person next to him, and pointed it fiercely at Ye Yousheng and Heng Mingzhi.

"I'll take medicine to make them all unconscious first, otherwise this stalemate will be fruitless." Heng Mingzhi proposed.

“…… Good. Ye Yousheng hesitated, but couldn't think of a better way.

But what did they do before they did?

The wind in the air suddenly stopped for a moment, and a few roars of demon beasts passed over everyone, but in a few breaths, before everyone could react, a few children were taken away by the demon beasts, and the cries lingered along with the bloody breath in the wind.

Qin Zhen frowned, and immediately decided: "Ah Sheng and I went to chase the demon beast, and Ah Zhi stayed to save people." ”

Heng Mingzhi is a medical cultivator, and it is safest to stay, no matter what happens to those villagers, they can't hurt him. The wounds left by the demon beast she killed just now will heal, and her combat effectiveness is not as good as before, so she is more sure to save the children from the demon beast with Ah Sheng.

Ye Yousheng and Heng Mingzhi also understood the reason for her assignment and had no objections.

Qin Hao didn't waste any more time, so he chased in the direction where the demon beast ran away, Ye Yousheng and Heng Mingzhi glanced at each other, confirmed that the other party had no problem, and then went to chase Qin Hao.

Qin Hao was tracking the aura of the demon beast, and his brain was thinking quickly.

These demon beasts are not like the demon fox in Yangping City, they already have spiritual intelligence, and their behavior should be logical, and they will only act according to instinct.

But now, they know to come back when they are not prepared, and they can control their instincts to snatch the child and leave. These monsters are very likely to be controlled by someone behind them.

Speaking of manipulating demon beasts, Qin Zhen first thought of Shen Qifeng.

But Shen Qifeng himself should be too busy to take care of himself now, if he wants to be "suspected" of stealing the Treasure Pavilion for her, he will mobilize the demon beast again to teach her a lesson, and it will obviously be worth the loss. If it was Hong Zhong's side, Hong Zhong would have the means to manipulate the demon beast, but his move at this time would inevitably shift the focus gathered on her to himself and attract Shen Qifeng's attention. What about Xiang Rong? Xiang Rong has always liked to be a good man, and as the person in charge of the Xingzhou branch sent by the Six Dao Alliance, he doesn't have to worry about Shen Qifeng and Hong Zhong's revenge at all.

Qin Zhen actually didn't understand why the few of them were willing to cooperate.

Is Tianyizong's so-called "secret treasure" really so attractive? They have been cultivating for so many years, and they are in a high position, what kind of heavenly and earthly treasure has not been seen, why bother for this secret treasure that does not even know what it is.

Besides, they all belong to the Six Realms Alliance, if the three of them get the secret treasure, how will they distribute it? Did they report the matter of the secret treasure to Zhongzhou, or did the three of them work together to conceal the information and block it in Xingzhou?

If it is the former, when he is cornered, Qin Zhen can choose to disclose the matter to Zhongzhou and let the people of Zhongzhou fight them, it is a big deal that everyone will have a hard time.

But things aren't so bad yet.

No matter who attracted the demon beast from Xinzhao Village this time, the purpose was just to distort her heart and make her full of resentment and indignation towards the world.

But Qin Zhen knew very well what she wanted.

She did want to save these people, but she didn't allow herself to expect their gratitude from the beginning. Once she has expectations, she will fall into a bottomless pit of emotions, and she can only be motivated if she gets feedback. Rather than this, it is better to abandon expectations at the beginning and just do nothing.

It's good for her, and it's good for mortals.

But Ye Yousheng wanted too much.

She didn't know why Ye Yousheng was so obsessed with this matter. Usually if they have any differences of opinion, Ye Yousheng will quickly compromise and listen to her opinion. But this time, he was so stubborn.

"Senior sister, go further, and it will be the Black Jade Forest." Ye Yousheng, who caught up, naturally couldn't know what Qin Zhen was thinking. He still remembered the map, and when Xinzhao Village came out and walked to the east, it was the Black Jade Forest.

He went to look at Qin Hao's right hand again, and the black jade bracelet blocked Qin Hao's wrist like last time, so that he couldn't see the specific situation: "Senior sister, what's going on with your hand?" Can this injury still be healed? You won't have to fight every time you hurt yourself. ”
