Chapter 1119: Chapter 1119: Roaming the World with a Sword (23)
“Sect Hierarch.”
The patrolling Villain A and Villain B came over from the other side, and when they saw Ming Xian, their eyes lit up.
Ming Xian just nodded with a stern face.
“Sect Hierarch, where have you been lately?”
“Sect Hierarch, you have no idea, our Brahman Immortal Sect is formidable now!”
Villain A and B poured out their ‘longing’ for the Sect Hierarch during this period all at once.
They also elaborated on how impressive their Brahman Immortal Sect had become and envisioned their future.
“Soon, our Brahman Immortal Sect’s members will spread across the martial world, unifying it is just around the corner!”
Ming Xian: “…”
He never thought about any of this.
Initially, he chose the Brahman Immortal Sect because it was easier to deal with…
–
The situation on the island was briefly explained by Villain A and B.
Now, Liang Xuan’s group is also on the island, spending all day whispering with Gao Qi, no one knows what they’re discussing.
“What about Qiu Yuehe?”
“I asked, they said he hasn’t been here.” That was answered by Han Qiqi.
Villain A also said, “We looked around secretly and didn’t see Qiu Yuehe. But I followed Gao Qi, and it seemed like he was talking to someone secretly. I was afraid he’d notice, so I didn’t dare get closer.”
Villain B immediately chimed in, “There’s a boat outside, with some people on it, they might know if Qiu Yuehe is here or not. Why don’t we grab someone from there and ask?”
“No need, there’s someone right here.” Chuzheng looked at Gao Yong, who was hanging from a tree.
Since Gao Yong is the Second Island Master, he should naturally know what’s happening on the island.
Ming Xian: “…”
Why does he now feel like she’s the real Demon Head?
No one knew what Han Qiqi did to Gao Yong, his mouth wasn’t covered, yet he could only make muffled sounds from his throat.
Seeing him like that, he truly looked a bit pitiful.
Ming Xian tightened his grip on his sword and tried to stand farther away, so as not to be tempted to kill him.
Gao Yong, being very brave, even knowing Han Qiqi was Tianshan Old Monster’s disciple, still had ulterior motives.
Han Qiqi tricked him into a room, quickly subdued him, and then brought him here to hang.
“I’ve observed, no one comes around here.” Han Qiqi said.
Even though their location allowed them to see buildings not far away, the distance was still quite far, and people from the island wouldn’t come here without a reason.
“Is he the same?”
Ming Xian responded with a somewhat displeased ‘hmm.’
“What is it?” Han Qiqi didn’t understand and asked while sitting on a dead tree nearby.
“Put him down.”
“Why should I put him down?” Han Qiqi said, “I haven’t properly taught him a lesson yet. Such men shouldn’t be let go, only thinking with their lower bodies, beasts, no, worse than beasts.”
“I have something to ask him.”
Han Qiqi pouted, not very willing.
Chuzheng took out a gold leaf and gave it to her.
Han Qiqi: “Such a small amount, are you trying to pass off a beggar?”
Chuzheng thought Han Qiqi was a talent worth nurturing.
A Good Person Card who doesn’t learn properly!
Chuzheng took out a stack of silver notes and gave them to her.
Han Qiqi counted, clicked her tongue, “He’s getting off cheap.”
Han Qiqi flicked her hand, sending out two leaves which cut the rope holding Gao Yong, and his whole body hit the ground with a muffled thud.
Unknown whether Han Qiqi did it intentionally or not, a certain indescribable area happened to hit a protruding rock.
Gao Yong’s face turned completely pale.
Chuzheng: “…”
Han Qiqi, swinging the silver notes, laughed as she walked away, “Master Gao, don’t underestimate girls next time, or you’ll suffer.”
In his heart, Gao Yong cursed Han Qiqi’s ancestors to the eighteenth generation. Is this just suffering? This would cut off his progeny!
Chuzheng picked him up, “Is Qiu Yuehe on the island?”
Gao Yong, in such pain that cold sweat dripped down his forehead, heard Chuzheng’s question but didn’t respond, just groaned from his throat.
“Make him talk.” Chuzheng turned to look at Han Qiqi.
“Sigh.”
Han Qiqi sighed while pulling out a porcelain bottle and tossing it over.
After administering the medicine, Gao Yong could speak, but because of the intense pain, his voice was shaky and uncontrolled.
“Is Qiu Yuehe on the island?”
Gao Yong gritted his teeth and glared angrily at Chuzheng, “Don’t… don’t know.”
Chuzheng unceremoniously gave him another hit, almost making Gao Yong faint from the pain.
Ming Xian felt a slight chill, silently holding his sword in front of him.
“He… he is here!”
Unable to withstand the pain, Gao Yong feared Chuzheng would hit him again, which would indeed destroy his manhood.
Plus, whatever Han Qiqi fed him made it impossible to use his inner strength.
Fallen into the hands of a woman, how infuriating!
Chuzheng: “What did he come to the island for?”
Gao Yong curled up like a shrimp, his voice intermittent, “Don’t know… I really don’t know. Ask my brother, he tells my brother everything.”
“Did Liang Xuan come looking for you because of the antidote to Jun Bugu?”
“…Yes, yes.”
When Chuzheng asked this question, it was evident from his involuntary look at her.
Why would Liang Xuan be asking about the antidote for Jun Bugu?
Han Qiqi somehow appeared next to him, “Liang Xuan got poisoned by Jun Bugu, didn’t you know?”
Ming Xian frowned, “How did he get poisoned by Jun Bugu?”
“She did it.” Han Qiqi gestured at Chuzheng with her chin, then turned the topic back to him, “You seem fine, how did you find the antidote for Jun Bugu, what method did you use?”
Ming Xian’s heart skipped a beat, his gaze fixed on Chuzheng’s side.
“Why can’t I find the antidote for Jun Bugu?”
“Because in this world, the person who could concoct Jun Bugu’s antidote has been dead for a long time.” Han Qiqi’s beautiful eyes narrowed slightly, “Great Demon Head, how did you recover your inner strength?”
“It’s none of your business.” Ming Xian didn’t want to discuss it further, stepping aside to leave.
However, Han Qiqi said, “Does she know?”
Ming Xian didn’t stop, fearing Han Qiqi might shout it out, but Han Qiqi didn’t; she merely watched his back, as if seeing through him to something beyond.
–
On the other side, Gao Yong was crying pitifully.
“Do you have the antidote?”
“No, we can’t possibly have the antidote, it’s Jun Bugu, everyone in the martial world knows there’s no antidote. How would we have it?”
Previously, he and his brother did have plenty of this poison, but they had stolen it from others.
Because so much of it came from them, many people thought this poison was concocted by the two brothers.
No matter how many times Chuzheng asked, Gao Yong’s answers remained the same.
Gao Yong thought she was done questioning, but unexpectedly, Chuzheng suddenly asked, “Did you and Qiu Yuehe conspire, many years ago, to destroy an entire family, was there such a thing?”
Gao Yong’s whole body seemed frozen, his expression stuck on his face, even forgetting to blink.
Qiu Yuehe had just brought the news, saying the people who died outside were all related to an event from back then, someone was seeking revenge, and now someone was at their door…
This is a coincidence… no, not a coincidence.
Terror-stricken, Gao Yong stared at Chuzheng, “Who are you… who exactly are you!”
