After arriving at the foot of the mountain.

Only then did Qi Qingyao mount a sword light and fly over the entire Nine Planet Sect.

Qi Qingyao was now qualified to fly anywhere in the sect; even the sect master would not say anything.

However, to maintain the dignity of the sect, Qi Qingyao had always strictly abided by every sect commandment.

Standing on her spirit sword, Qi Qingyao looked at the brightly lit peaks. She looked into the distance and quickly chose one.

“Let’s check the Northern Crimson Peak today!”

After that, Qi Qingyao turned into a sword light and arrived above Northern Crimson Peak in the blink of an eye.

“Senior Sister!”

“Greetings, Senior Sister!”

When the disciples at the monthly allowance office saw the sword light, they immediately understood that Qi Qingyao had come to check. They quickly put away their lazy attitude and respectfully welcomed her.

“En, why are there so few people? Could Northern Crimson Peak have given out their monthly allowance in advance this time?”

The sword light slowly descended.

Qi Qingyao walked down from the spirit sword and looked at the few peak disciples before her. Her two shapely eyebrows immediately furrowed.

“This …”

Seeing that their Senior Sister seemed angry, the few disciples standing there suddenly trembled and were so afraid that they could not speak.

“What’s with the cowering, speak! Could the service disciples have ignored the sect’s commandments and privately distributed the monthly stipend in advance?”

Qi Qingyao was even angrier when she saw their unbearable appearance.

“No… The monthly stipend hasn’t been distributed, but the servant disciples and others are not on the mountain.”

“We didn’t dare to use it alone, so we waited here for their return.”

Feeling the sudden terrifying aura, the disciples, who were already afraid, didn’t dare to stand. They knelt on the ground in unison.

The disciple closest to her pressed his forehead to the ground and explained in a trembling voice.

“What!”

After hearing the disciple’s words …

Qi Qingyao’s phoenix eyes narrowed slightly. The spirit sword floating beside her seemed to have sensed the anger in its master’s heart. It immediately let out a soft cry, and the sharp sword intent directly broke the surrounding land.

“Good, good!”

“They ignored the sect’s commandments and left the mountain peak they’re in charge of when giving out their monthly allowance. Do they think my autumn swan sword is dull?”

At this moment, Qi Qingyao’s face was as cold as frost. She spat out these words word by word.

After she finished speaking, Qi Qingyao looked at the people kneeling on the ground. “Get up. You follow the rules of the mountain. What is there to be afraid of?

Could it be that I’m the kind of person in your hearts who would casually blame others?”

“Tell me, where did the odd-job disciples distributing the monthly stipend and the others go?”

“Senior Sister, we don’t know the exact reason, but the disciples of the Northern Crimson Peak and the handyman disciples should be in a small shop at the foot of the Divine Sword Peak.

I don’t know anymore.”

Hearing Qi Qingyao’s words, the kneeling disciples heaved a sigh of relief but did not dare to stand up. They only straightened their backs and replied.

“Hmph, the Divine Sword Peak.”

Qi Qingyao snorted coldly. The next moment, she turned into a sword light and flew toward the Divine Sword.

With the speed of Qi Qingyao’s flying sword, she arrived in the sky above the Divine Sword Peak in a few breaths. Looking down from above, the ‘Lively’ store in the distance had already entered Qi Qingyao’s eyes.

“It’s here!”

Seeing that so many people were obediently lining up in the store opened by the so-called in-name disciples, the anger in Qi Qingyao’s heart dissipated a little.

After some consideration, Qi Qingyao quietly disappeared and flew above the store on her flying sword.

Looking down from above, even with Qi Qingyao’s temperament, she couldn’t help but be a little speechless.

No wonder there was almost no one there.

With just a glance from Qi Qingyao, she could see hundreds of people surrounding the entrance of Li Yang’s store!

With just a glance, if it weren’t for the fact that the place was wrong, Qi Qingyao would have thought that she had come to where the monthly allowance was issued, the Northern Crimson Peak.

‘What does that store do? How could it attract so many disciples?’

Looking at the eye-catching store in front of the crowd, Qi Qingyao’s heart was full of doubts.

Just as Qi Qingyao was about to go down and find out what was happening, she suddenly saw a very familiar figure in the crowd.

Jiang Huanyue, who had just arrived, was standing in line. Her pretty little face was full of anger. She kept standing on her tiptoes to check how many people were still in the queue.

“Is that junior sister Jiang?”

Qi Qingyao, who had recognized Jiang huanyue at a glance, couldn’t believe what she had just seen.

If it were a group of outer sect disciples lining up, it would still be excusable.

However, Jiang Huanyue was the direct disciple of Elder Tianying. If it were any other time, not many people would be unwilling to lie on the ground as a carpet for her, let alone line up.

But now, Jiang Huanyue was standing in line with the outer disciples. It seemed like she didn’t intend to cut the line, except for being angry at the crowd!

More importantly, these outer sect disciples didn’t care about Jiang Huanyue’s status. They just made her wait in line with the same impatient expression on their faces.

“How is that possible?”

At this moment, Qi Qingyao looked at Li Yang’s ordinary-looking store, and her expression suddenly changed.

What the hell was this place?

To be able to make the Nine Planet Sect disciples ignore the difference in status, to be so sought after, even the difference in status and the monthly allowance, they didn’t care!

“Hu …”

Qi Qingyao, standing on the flying sword, let out a long breath as if she wanted to clear her mind of all the doubts in her heart.

The next moment, she looked down at the chaotic crowd.

Qi Qingyao’s expression became serious again.

The noisy scene below was reflected in Qi Qingyao’s eyes, full of the words ‘Safety hazard!’

It was too dangerous!

Who opened this shop? Did they have some particular purpose? Why did it attract so many disciples from the sect?

And these disciples were so careless now. If someone had bad intentions, no one could find out in time!

More importantly …

Although Nine Planet Sect was unwilling to leave this place, it was still within the outer sect’s boundary.

It was too remote!

No!

Investigate; they must be investigated strictly!
