Extracting Billions Of Toxins And Tempering An Unsullied Body

Chapter 222: Retribution for Evil

??

If it had been before, Fang Qingshan would never have believed what Fang Qinyu said. He thought that it was just an excuse for her to help Gu Xi get off. Now, he had to think about it carefully.

“What do you have to say?”

The person who had been interrogated was Gu Xi, but in an instant, it had become Zhou Haozhe.

Zhou Haozhe had never expected the situation to turn out like this. Originally, Gu Xi was bound to die, but after a wave of the Insect Tide, there was an earth-shaking change.

Especially Fang Qingshan. He clearly understood every word, but he was shocked.

Zhou Haozhe squeezed out a stiff smile. “Teacher, Junior Sister, you can’t be joking, right? With just him, how can he repel the Insect Tide? You have to know that he has lost all his cultivation base, so he’s no different from those ordinary people.”

They did not believe it at first, but after seeing the Insect Tide show respect to Gu Xi with their own eyes, they had to believe it.

“Whether it’s true or not, we’ll find out after checking.”

Zhou Haozhe glared at the disciple who spoke just now with a fierce look, which scared the disciple. He turned around to face Fang Qingshan, and he changed his face instantly. However, he did not know that Fang Qingshan had seen his change of face and frowned slightly.

“Master, you have to believe me. I would never do such a thing.”

The person who had been sent to investigate the news returned very quickly. After all, it was Fang Qingshan who had personally given the order. He also knew that in the eyes of those who had lost their composure, the person in charge of the guards did not dare to hide anything.

“Yes, it was Senior Brother Zhou who said that there was something important. That was why we left for a moment. However, we did not expect...”

The truth emerged, and it was almost the same as what Fang Qinyu had said.

Fang Qingshan’s eyes were instantly filled with extreme disappointment. “It’s really you.”

Zhou Haozhe’s face instantly turned deathly pale. “No, it’s not me!”

This matter could have been done without anyone knowing. With Fang Qingshan’s hatred for Gu Xi, even if Fang Qinyu told the truth, no one would believe it. It was precisely because of this that Zhou Haozhe had no scruples, he wanted to get rid of him.

However, now, Gu Xi was a great contributor. Now that Fang Qinyu brought it up again, Fang Qingshan would naturally investigate it carefully. As such, it was impossible to hide it.

Zhou Haozhe knelt on the ground. “Master, believe me. Someone is making up a lie and trying to smear me.”

Seeing that he was stubborn and unrepentant, Fang Qingshan’s expression immediately turned cold. “The witness is here, and you still want to deny it? Moreover, you acted without permission in the array formation earlier and almost caused a disaster!”

Zhou Haozhe sat on the ground, his body trembling like a sieve.

“Pass down my orders. Zhou Haozhe has violated the sect rules and intended to frame his fellow sect members. He has ulterior motives. Even now, he still refuses to repent. He will be sentenced to ten lightning punishments, and he will be locked up in Deep Meditation Cliff!”

Ten lightning punishments! This was practically taking half of his life.

“Master, don’t! I didn’t do anything wrong!”

Seeing that Fang Qingshan did not have any reaction, Zhou Haozhe crawled all the way to Fang Qinyu. “Junior Sister Fang, I know my mistake. We grew up together, and you’re so kind. Can you forgive me?”

Fang Qinyu turned her head to the side and said coldly, “Senior Brother Zhou purposely moved the guards away from you to use me to get rid of Big Brother Gu. You should have thought that such a day would come.”

Zhou Haozhe did not expect Fang Qinyu to be so cold. It was as if he had received a huge blow. He rolled and crawled in front of Li Junyan.

“Senior Brother, can you help me plead with Master?”

Seeing Zhou Haozhe’s miserable appearance, Li Junyan was moved by the fact that they were fellow disciples who had grown up together. He was about to say something.

Fang Qinyu, on the other hand, spoke up from the side, “Senior Brother Zhou, when you set up a trap to use me to get rid of Gu Xi, why didn’t you think about it? His cultivation has been completely lost and he can’t withstand the punishment at all. Right now, it’s only ten lightning strikes. It won’t take your life at all.”

On one side was his Junior Sister, and on the other side was his Junior Brother. In the end, Li Junyan still chose to stand on Fang Qinyu’s side. After all, it was Zhou Haozhe who was at fault first.

“Someone, take him away.”

No matter how much Zhou Haozhe cried, it was useless. Seeing this scene, Fang Qinyu moved closer to Gu Xi and whispered, “Big Brother Gu, this is great. He finally got the punishment he deserved.”

“There’s one more thing. I hope Little Friend Gu can explain to me why that swarm of insects didn’t attack you.”

Gu Xi knew that Fang Qingshan would have such a question. After all, he was an ordinary person who did not even have the strength to truss a chicken. He had no way of controlling the fiendish and terrifying Winged Golden Black Bugs, even someone with the cultivation of a Great Sage could not do it.

However, Gu Xi could not reveal Little Ancient either. After all, it was the only Ancient Winged Golden King Bug in the world.

“I have been gifted since I was young, and I can communicate with the bugs.”

Gu Xi used the excuse that he had long prepared.

“There’s actually such a wondrous thing? To be able to communicate with the bug race...”

Although Fang Qingshan did not quite believe it, he knew that he would not be able to get anything out of it.

“However, even if Zhou Haozhe was the one who planned it first, you did indeed give our sect’s supreme treasure to an outsider to use. If you did not have this intention, Zhou Haozhe would not have used this –”

As Fang Qingshan’s style changed, Fang Qinyu’s heart hung in her throat once again. She said in disbelief, “Father! Aren’t you burning the bridge after crossing the river? Have you forgotten that it was Brother Gu who saved us from danger just now?”

Seeing that Fang Qinyu could not wait to retort before he could finish her words, Fang Qingshan said helplessly, “I haven’t finished speaking. What are you in a hurry for?”

Only then did Fang Qinyu see the smile on his face clearly. For a moment, she was embarrassed and speechless. The red glow once again climbed onto her face and said shyly, “I, I didn’t mean that.”

“Young Friend Gu, if you don’t mind, this old man claims to know a little about the Art of Qi Recovery. Why don’t you let me treat your injuries a little?”
