Gong Qing, you're really ruthless!
Lu Liang had been following Gong Qing for some time, so he knew exactly how many people were involved in the plan Gong Qing mentioned to "delay Lu Xuan"...
Leaving aside the mercenaries and foreign superhumans hired by the foolish and wealthy Wang Zhi, the Quanxing sect alone produced more than two hundred experts, who were the backbone of Quanxing's attack on the mountain.
Yet this immense power so easily became the "price" in Gong Qing's words...
Fortunately! I'm not exactly a saint either.
Lü Liang's figure disappeared into the bushes.
Gong Qing took two deep breaths and walked towards the small courtyard of Grandpa Tian Jinzhong, which was not far away.
It was Grandpa Tian Jinzhong who sent him out to check on the situation.
As soon as I entered the courtyard, I saw Rongshan... standing guard outside the room?
Looking at Rongshan, who was squatting idly on the ground outside the door.
Gong Qing scratched his head in confusion. Why would Rong Shan be guarding outside?
Didn't the old Celestial Master say that Rongshan should stay by Tian Jinzhong's side at all times, like Master Tian?
In order to trick Rong Shan into leaving, Gong Qing kept spreading rumors such as, "Oh no! Lu Jin killed the Celestial Master!", "Oh no! The Celestial Master killed Lu Xuan!", "Oh no! Lu Xuan and the Celestial Master have been killed by Lu Jin!"...
I've already come up with all these excuses.
So, Rongshan, you're just squatting outside like this now?
What about all that internal monologue I've been planning for so long?
Gong Qing took two deep breaths.
Stay calm, stay calm.
Although Rongshan was squatting outside, he still needed perfect acting skills to fool him.
Gong Qing cleared his throat and instantly put on an acting performance, running breathlessly to Rong Shan with tears in his eyes.
"It's not good, it's not good!"
"Master Rongshan, the Old Celestial Master has been possessed by a demon... ptooey!"
Gong Qing continued his acting: "Oh no! The Celestial Master is going to be captured by Quanxing..."
"Xiao Yuzi?"
Before Gong Qing could finish speaking, Rong Shan stood up with his eyes shining.
"Is the Quanxing faction's momentum too fierce? It's time for me to make my move, isn't it?"
"I knew I'd be the one to deal with those brats from Quanxing."
Rong Shan, full of enthusiasm, skipped over Gong Qing and dashed out of the courtyard.
Gong Qing was taken aback when Rong Shan's voice rang in his ears.
"Xiaoyu, you stay here and keep watch, I'm going now!"
Gong Qing: "?"
"ah???"
Master Rongshan, are you just leaving like this?
Gong Qing stood there, stunned, all his prepared acting and prepared remarks stuck in his throat.
Rongshan rode off into the distance, completely ignoring Master Tian inside the house, and without uttering a word, disappeared in a flash.
Gong Qing was left standing there, stunned.
A gust of bleak wind stirred up fallen leaves, making Gong Qing's figure appear extremely desolate.
Come back! Come back!
Give me back the acting I prepared!
I painstakingly came up with so many things to say, but you ran away before I could even say a single word?
Tian Jinzhong is your own uncle! You just abandoned him like that?
You unfilial wretch, how could you be so selfish? I'm going to report you to the Heavenly Master.
Bastard! Come back here!
Gong Qing looked at Rong Shan's departing figure with an extremely desolate expression.
"Acting Sect Leader, didn't you say that Rong Shan is extremely wary, very obedient to the Old Celestial Master, and has a very good relationship with Master Tian Jinzhong?"
Lü Liang emerged from the bushes, his tone slightly sarcastic.
"I think Rongshan is running way too fast!"
Gong Qing: "..."
Chapter 136: A Lu Xuan Suddenly Appears.
Oh well, it's just a little bit of hardship.
How could I, the dignified acting leader of Quanxing, possibly bother with such trivial matters?
After composing himself, Gong Qing walked to the door.
He suddenly pushed the door open.
"Grand Tutor, I'll do it..."
The gate opened, and the kind-looking Grand Tutor Tian Jinzhong and the equally benevolent Lu Xuan came into view.
Lu Xuan was still leisurely sipping his tea.
Wait... Oh! Lu Xuan.
Gong Qing breathed a sigh of relief.
Oh, it's Lu Xuan! I thought it was Lu Xuan!
Holy crap! Lu Xuan.
Bang! The door slammed shut.
Gong Qing's face was filled with the fear of surviving a disaster, and his back was pressed tightly against the door.
What the hell? Wasn't Lu Xuan supposed to be in the back mountain right now?
Wasn't it said that Lu Xuan was being held back by those three hundred-plus pigs... ptooey! Three hundred-plus Quanxing?
The most advanced tracking and positioning equipment from abroad? Are you kidding me?
Seeing Gong Qing looking like he'd seen a ghost, Lü Liang looked completely bewildered.
What's wrong? Could it be that doing too many bad things has really caused you to see ghosts?
Lü Liang is now accepting of seeing ghosts.
After all, recent events and the mental state of the Quanxing members, including Gong Qing, are no different from seeing a ghost.
What I just saw was more terrifying than a ghost.
It's better to see a ghost!
Gong Qing was trembling all over. Calm down, calm down. Maybe he was seeing things?
He turned around, took a deep breath, and pushed the door open again.
Lu Xuan: "(￢_￢)"
Grandpa Tian Jinzhong: "⊙_⊙"
Lu Xuan even waved to him.
Gong Qing: "..."
Bang! The door slammed shut again.
Mr. Tian Jinzhong looked puzzled.
What's wrong with Xiaoyuzi today?
Tian Jinzhong looked at Lu Xuan: "Lu Xuan! My old bones are not worth your personal protection."
"I hear it might be more dangerous outside. Why don't you go and help out there?"
"Don't worry, Elder Tian, not a single innocent person will die on Longhu Mountain today."
Lu Xuan shook his head slightly and said with interest.
"Elder Tian, let me introduce you to someone, the culprit who started this great battle, the acting leader of Quanxing Sect—Gong Qing."
Upon hearing Gong Qing's name, a slight ripple appeared in the usually calm eyes of Grandpa Tian Jinzhong.
Looking outside, Xiao Yuzi, who was sneaking around by opening and closing the door twice, was clearly suspicious.
He wouldn't question Lu Xuan, because Lu Xuan had no reason to lie to a disabled centenarian.
If what Lu Xuan said is true, then Xiao Yuzi is Gong Qing.
What could a cripple like himself possibly have that would make the acting leader of Quanxing Sect lie in wait for years, even at the cost of launching a major battle to besiege Longhu Mountain?
What about the secrets of the Jia Shen Rebellion back then?
Gong Qing pressed himself tightly against the door, panting heavily, and stared at Lü Liang, who had also just caught a glimpse of him.
"you saw it?"
Lü Liang swallowed.
Should I see this?
"You didn't see it? That's good, it must have been my imagination... Yeah, right!"
Gong Qing almost coughed up blood.
What a load of rubbish! What's Lu Xuan doing here?
I painstakingly planned for three years, only to fail at the last step.
