At this time, Gu Qing was truly frightened, although Qing Hee Immortal had rummaged through her Universe Bag s and did not find anything abnormal about the pendant from her pitiful amount of things, but if Qing Hee Immortal was really going to search her soul, then this secret would not be hidden.
Not only would she fail to hide the secret, she might even become a fool!
However, there were some people who became greedy, and they would not be afraid even if they violated the rules of the world. For example, Qing Hee Immortal, who was glaring at her.
"Alright, let me tell you, this is something that the outer sect's Hee Zhixian found for me." Gu Qing rolled her eyes, and reported Hee Zhixian's name.
She did not want to pull Hee Zhixian into the water, but wanted to use Hee Zhixian to spread the news. Since Hee Zhixian and the Mask Man were acquainted with each other and they even helped him hide so many things, then there must definitely be some sort of link between the two of them.
If Hee Zhixian suddenly went missing, the Mask Man would definitely come to look for him.
Although it was risky for her to suddenly gain consciousness, it was the only way to save herself.
"It's really him?" Qing Hee Immortal frowned, he stared at Gu Qing's face and sized him up. After all, Gu Qing's Universe Bag had already been searched by him, and there weren't any more spiritual liquid around.
"Yes, you can ask him." Gu Qing slowly calmed her heart. He knew that the Qing Hee Immortal was here for the spiritual liquid, so it was not necessary to kill her. As long as he did not search her soul, she would be safe.
"Alright, I'll believe you this once," at this point, his eyes narrowed, revealing a severe light, "But if you dare to lie to me, you should know the consequences!"
Gu Qing pretended to be calm and nodded her head, but the Qing Hee Immortal placed a Barrier on her and left.
Gu Qing watched as he disappeared outside the cave, then heaved a sigh of relief. Although she couldn't move, she finally had a chance of survival.
Gu Qing waited and waited for an hour before a familiar voice sounded from outside the cave. "Let go, let go of me!"
Hee Zhixian did not know that there were Barrier s nearby, shouting out loud, but they were quickly pushed inside by the Qing Hee Immortal. He turned his head and stared at Qing Hee Immortal, he did not notice that there was another person in the cave that was in the darkness.
"Qing Hee Immortal, why did you capture me?" Hee Zhixian was not stupid, after being caught by the Qing Hee Immortal, he immediately left, and even more so did not allow him to speak.
Qing Hee Immortal's face darkened, he extended his hand, "Hand it over!"
Hee Zhixian was at a loss, "What?"
"spiritual liquid!" Qing Hee Immortal squinted his eyes and stared at him.
Hee Zhixian was not scared, hearing that he did not reveal a single flaw, he only shook his head, "What are you saying?" While shaking, his eyes swept across and landed on Gu Qing who was on the ground.
"You!" Hee Zhixian opened his eyes wide, and finally understood why the other party said that.
Qing Hee Immortal repeated what he had just said to Gu Qing. Just as he was about to search Hee Zhixian's Universe Bag, Gu Qing immediately said: "Martial Uncle, why don't you let me talk to him properly?"
Qing Hee Immortal hesitated for a moment, his gaze swept across Gu Qing's face, and then nodded. "I'll give the two of you fifteen minutes. A mere Middle Period of Foundation Stage disciple and an outer court disciple, even if Sect Leader were to settle the score, I would have already sent the two of you off without anyone noticing, so you two should think things through clearly! "
Gu Qing hurriedly nodded, "I know, Martial Uncle can be at ease!"
Only then did Qing Hee Immortal feel slightly satisfied, but he still stood in place without moving.
Gu Qing coughed lightly and said to Qing Hee Immortal: "Martial Uncle, please wait outside for a moment."
Qing Hee Immortal's gaze swept across the two of them. In order to obtain the spiritual liquid, he didn't care about this anymore, he waved his sleeves and turned to leave.
Just as Qing Hee Immortal left, Hee Zhixian anxiously turned to look at Gu Qing, "What did you say? How could he know about the spiritual liquid? "
"I accidentally dropped a bottle, and it just so happened to be picked up by him. That's why he suspects me." Gu Qing was a little discouraged, and realised that she had been rather unlucky recently.
"Why are you so careless!" Hee Zhixian almost jumped up, it was because of the diluted spiritual wine, that caused the people who exterminated the Gu family to look all over the place for their source, and now that he lost another bottle, the most important part was that he was caught.
Through this matter, Gu Qing had learnt her lesson. In the future, unless she had no other choice, or had sufficient cultivation to be unafraid of others coveting, or else, he would definitely not swallow spiritual liquid s outside. She must hide herself well, and after soaking everything in it, she would drink it all without leaving any trace.
"The matter has already happened. All we need to do is think of a way to resolve it!" Gu Qing looked at him and said.
"How?" Why don't you tell me your solution? " Hee Zhixian said snappily.
Gu Qing smiled, her gaze sweeping across him, "Aren't you the one who solved the problem."
"What?" Hee Zhixian frowned, he did not understand what Gu Qing was saying.
"Let's guess if anyone has come to save you." Gu Qing curled her lips, her gaze turning from Hee Zhixian's face to the outside of the cave.
Hee Zhixian's face revealed a trace of panic, "Why would someone come to save me? I think we should just hurry up and think of a way to save ourselves. That Qing Hee Immortal has said that after a quarter of an hour, his soul will be searched.
"You are the fool! Since I have already done so, I am confident that I will be unable to be searched by him! " Gu Qing stared outside the cave. She knew that the Mask Man was not weak, otherwise he would not be able to come and go freely in the Demon Domain. He would even be able to enter the Demon Domain's secret realm. Although he did not know why such a person was related to Hee Zhixian, she was sure that she would easily find out about Hee Zhixian's disappearance.
In fact, she was wrong, the other party did not easily find out about Hee Zhixian, it was because he had completely grasped the information that she was in the Qing Hee Immortal's hands, and had been paying attention to his since a short distance away. He only wanted to see what kind of thing she would do in this kind of difficult situation that was extremely disadvantageous to her, to save him.
Beneath the mask, a hint of admiration appeared in the eyes of Stars Pet Chain Supermarket. He really didn't think that Gu Qing had already guessed the relationship between him and Hee Zhixian, and even knew that pulling Hee Zhixian into the water would force him out. Not only did he save himself, he was even sure that was involved with him.
It had to be said that even though he had seen all the beauties of the world, this kind of girl who understood everything felt particularly beautiful and dazzling at this moment.
Inside the cave, Hee Zhixian started to flicker, but at the bottom of his heart, he tried to guess the meaning of Gu Qing's words. He had a guess in his mind, but he was extremely worried. That person's identity could not be known to outsiders, otherwise, they would be silenced.
Hee Zhixian's face was somewhat pale, and immediately denied it: "Gu Qing, eat whatever you want in the future, don't say whatever you want, don't make unnecessary guesses, understand?"
When Gu Qing heard this, she turned her head to look at Hee Zhixian. He saw that his face had never been serious and solemn before, but the gaze he used to look at her had a hint of worry.
Just as she was about to speak, Qing Hee Immortal walked in from outside. His gaze swept across the two people's faces and Hee Zhixian immediately quieted down.
"Time's up. Which one of you is going to tell me where the spiritual liquid came from?" Qing Hee Immortal's gaze kept darting back and forth between the two, not letting go of even the slightest of emotion on their faces.
Hee Zhixian was obviously not going to speak, but instead, he stared at the entrance of the cave and wondered why the Mask Man had not appeared yet. Could it be that he did not know that Hee Zhixian had been captured?
But just as she started to think, she rejected it. The other party's cultivation must have been above Golden Core Stage, and there was a possibility that he had already reached Nascent Infant. Since this kind of person was hiding in the Huaqing Palace, he must be very familiar with the movements here.
"If you don't speak, then I'll just search your souls. You, go first!" Qing Hee Immortal pointed in Hee Zhixian's direction.
Gu Qing did not immediately speak, but paid attention to Hee Zhixian's expression. However, she discovered that when Hee Zhixian warned her just now, his tone was a little hurried, and even a little nervous. However, right now, he was not afraid or nervous at all when facing Qing Hee Immortal.
Why is that?
She smiled and said to the Qing Hee Immortal: "Martial Uncle, actually, you don't need to ask us, nor do you need to search our souls. All you need to do is to ask that friend outside, he will definitely tell you, and he will give you as many spiritual liquid as you want."
"What did you say?" Qing Hee Immortal did not expect that there would be people outside, and at almost the same time he asked, he turned around and looked outside.
The Mask Man standing in the distance did not expect Gu Qing to say such words, and the praise in her eyes grew even stronger. Since Gu Qing already knew that she was nearby, there was no need to stay any longer. Smiling faintly, she walked out from her hiding spot.
She thought that this girl still knew how to test Hee Zhixian! He didn't know whether to say that she was too smart or Hee Zhixian was too stupid.
It just so happened that the instant Qing Hee Immortal turned around, he flicked his hand and the Qing Hee Immortal didn't even have time to see or react before he fell limply to the ground.
Even though Gu Qing had prepared herself mentally, she couldn't help but be startled. She realised that even though she had overestimated the other party, she had still underestimated him.
Frowning, she stared at the tall figure dressed in black and silently asked, "Just who are you?" Why was it hiding in the Huaqing Palace?
But after going through so many things, she understood that there were some things she couldn't ask about. This man wore a mask because he didn't want others to know his true appearance and identity.
Seeing that Mask Man was about to reach them step by step, suddenly, a figure appeared in front of her. Then she heard a familiar voice in front of her. "Master, she won't tell us what he saw today."
Gu Qing stood behind Hee Zhixian. In her heart, she had already guessed that the two were familiar with each other, so she was not too surprised about the way they addressed Hee Zhixian. She only looked at the other party's pitch black, mysterious eyes through Hee Zhixian's shoulder.
The man's eyes that were exposed outside the mask slightly narrowed, reflecting a dangerous ray of light. "Get out of the way!"
