Chapter 10: Demanding an Account

“It’s you!”

“It’s you!”

Seeing the young man blocking the way between the two women, Little Dragon Maiden and Li Mochou both cried out in surprise, their faces filled with disbelief!

Yang Guo, who had been grabbed by Hong Lingbo, was stunned for a moment when he saw the newcomer, then became overjoyed and shouted toward him: “Brother Wei Ziqing, quick, quick, kill this evil woman and save my Madam!”

The newcomer was indeed Wei Ziqing!

Originally, upon hearing Li Mochou say she wanted to deal with Little Dragon Maiden, he had quickly followed, but he was still too late!

Seeing that Little Dragon Maiden was about to be hit by Li Mochou’s Soul-Freezing Silver Needles, Wei Ziqing managed to block the needles at the critical moment and saved her!

A murderous look flashed in Li Mochou’s eyes. This brat from Quanzhen had first killed her fellow sect members, and now he dared to save that little brat Little Dragon Maiden right in front of her. He was truly seeking death!

Fuming with rage, she was about to attack when she heard Little Dragon Maiden’s cry of surprise. She paused, and then a mocking expression appeared on her face as she looked at Little Dragon Maiden with an incredibly strange gaze.

“Junior Sister truly has great luck!”

Little Dragon Maiden had indeed not expected Wei Ziqing to appear, let alone save her. However, hearing Li Mochou’s words, her eyebrows frowned slightly, and she asked calmly: “What do you mean, Senior Sister?”

“What do I mean?” Li Mochou sneered. “Do you remember the rules of the Ancient Tomb? Men are forbidden from entering the Ancient Tomb. Not only did you bring a small boy into the tomb, but you even have a lover who is a Quanzhen disciple. Do you not have great luck?”

Little Dragon Maiden was slightly stunned, then sighed helplessly and looked at Li Mochou calmly: “Senior Sister, I think you have misunderstood. Yang Guo is my disciple, as for…”

At this point, Little Dragon Maiden paused slightly before continuing: “It was just a chance encounter!”

Wei Ziqing did not speak; he only looked at Li Mochou. He did not know why he had been so unwise as to stand in this place, but at this moment, even though Li Mochou was a demon who struck fear into the hearts of all in the Divine Condor World.

As for Little Dragon Maiden’s words, Wei Ziqing was not surprised. He had already guessed she would say this!

“What a wonderful disciple, what a wonderful chance encounter. In that case, if I kill this boy, Junior Sister, you should have no objection!”

How could Li Mochou possibly believe Little Dragon Maiden’s words?

A chance encounter? How could someone from a chance encounter dare to face her? Was he not afraid of death?

With a cold laugh, she threw several Soul-Freezing Silver Needles again, but this time, the target was not Little Dragon Maiden, but Wei Ziqing who stood in front of her!

Li Mochou’s sudden attack caused Little Dragon Maiden’s expression to change instantly, but Wei Ziqing remained completely calm. He had already anticipated this move from Li Mochou.

“You want to kill me?” Wei Ziqing sneered, his body moving rapidly. Although he was injured, a few silver needles could not stop him. He flicked his longsword, blocking the Soul-Freezing Silver Needles rushing toward him.

Li Mochou’s expression changed. The boy before her was only a Second-Rate Expert and was suffering from severe internal injuries, while she was a First-Rate Expert. The fact that he could block her needles again was truly shocking!

“Good boy, I truly underestimated you. In that case, I want to see if you can still block me!” With a cold laugh, she swung her fly-whisk, sending a sharp killing intent crashing toward Wei Ziqing as she rushed forward rapidly!

Hmph!

Wei Ziqing snorted and released his Inner Energy. Just as he was about to deflect the fly-whisk, a flash of cold light moved faster than him, blocking the fly-whisk first.

“Sect Leader?” Wei Ziqing turned around and saw several figures rushing toward them. At the lead was an incredibly angry Qiu Chuji, and the cold light from just now was the longsword in Qiu Chuji’s hand!

Not only was Qiu Chuji there, but so were Zhao Zhijing and a person Wei Ziqing knew very well: Zhen Zhibing, the culprit who had insulted Little Dragon Maiden!

Qiu Chuji did not look at Wei Ziqing. Instead, Zhao Zhijing was slightly stunned when he saw Wei Ziqing, clearly not expecting to see him here.

However, at this moment, he had no time to care about him, because there was a great demon here, Li Mochou!

“Qiu Chuji, this is a private matter of our Ancient Tomb Sect. Why is your Quanzhen Sect interfering?” Li Mochou looked at Qiu Chuji with a gloomy face and shouted angrily.

Although her strength was equal to his, they had the advantage of numbers, so Li Mochou did not dare to attack first!

“Quanzhen and the Ancient Tomb do not interfere with one another. This poor Taoist does not wish to interfere in your tomb’s affairs; I only want the fairy to give an explanation!”

“An explanation? Have I, Li Mochou, offended your Quanzhen?” Li Mochou sneered.

“Bold demon, you still want to make excuses even now!”

Hearing this, before Qiu Chuji could speak, Zhao Zhijing jumped forward and shouted angrily: “You broke into the Forbidden Grounds of Quanzhen at night and killed our Quanzhen disciple, Lu Qingdu. Just now, you tried to kill our Quanzhen menial disciple right in front of us. Is this not the truth?”

“Senior Brother Zhao is not wrong!” Zhen Zhibing also stepped forward and said angrily. However, his gaze kept staring at the pale Little Dragon Maiden behind Wei Ziqing, and a flicker of hidden lust appeared in his eyes: “I discovered someone had broken into Quanzhen and followed the trail, only to find the body of our Quanzhen disciple, Lu Qingdu. If you didn’t kill him, who did?”

Zhen Zhibing knew that he was not telling the full truth. He had not followed the trail because he noticed Li Mochou breaking into Quanzhen.

Instead, he missed Little Dragon Maiden and wanted to come to the Ancient Tomb to soothe his longing. He happened to find Li Mochou, got scared and ran away, then found Lu Qingdu’s body, and only then went back to find Qiu Chuji!

The appearance of Qiu Chuji with Zhao Zhijing, Zhen Zhibing, and other Quanzhen disciples had already made Wei Ziqing confused. Now, hearing the words of Zhao Zhijing and Zhen Zhibing, his expression became very strange!

He knew exactly how Lu Qingdu died. He never expected that they would mistakenly think Li Mochou killed him!

Looking at Little Dragon Maiden behind him, he saw that she had forced her frail body to stand up, and he felt relieved.

Since they misunderstood and thought Li Mochou killed Lu Qingdu, then Li Mochou would have her own problems to deal with and would not come after Little Dragon Maiden or himself again!

But before he could fully relax, Wei Ziqing’s face suddenly changed drastically, and he looked sharply at Li Mochou.

He had suddenly forgotten one thing!

That was the fact that Li Mochou had seen him kill Lu Qingdu!
