Chapter 645 Awkward...Dead

I had a brief encounter with this person a few years ago. Not long ago, I heard my godmother, Lady Gai, talk about this person. His strength is no less than my godmother's!
He bowed to Murong Ji and said, "I apologize for not welcoming you from afar."

Murong Ji returned the greeting with a bow, "It is already impolite to trespass here without an invitation, please forgive me, fellow Taoist."

After a few polite words, he entered the tent, sat down, and waited for Master Du's subordinates to serve some southern fruits and specialties.

Murong Ji said directly, "I think you already know why I came here, so I will speak frankly."

"May I ask, fellow Taoist, these humans were captured by you and your wife and brought here to do some labor work, which is fine, but are they paid?"

After he finished speaking, Murong Ji took a sip from the teacup, his brows drooping, and he did not look at Master Du's expression. He just silently waited for Master Du to give an answer.

Master Du was silent for a moment, then said, "To be honest, we didn't have any at first. Now that you are here, we naturally have to give them enough living supplies. We in the South Country can still afford these things, so don't worry."

Murong Ji's smile grew even wider, and he nodded, "That's great."

"The human race is not like the demon race. They are physically weak and can only rely on farming for a living, or hunt some unintelligent beasts to fill their stomachs. Even so, there will be many casualties."

"If you can give them the rewards they deserve, it will be a good deed for both our clans."

What else could Master Du say? Among the demon clan, the strong are respected. Murong Ji's strength was so high that he felt unsure. As long as the city could be built, whatever Murong Ji said would be the truth.

The human race is weak, and now that they have been captured, their production and life have been disrupted. Even if they are released, they will still have a hard time, and may even starve to death.

It's helpless, ordinary human beings are so weak. Otherwise, why don't the descendants of human aristocratic families treat humans as human beings? They are too weak!
"After this city is completed, please send them back to their original place. There are few humans in the southern border, so it is better to let them recuperate."

After Murong Ji finished speaking, Master Du was silent for a moment, thinking of Murong Ji's superb cultivation level. Even if the couple joined forces, they had no chance of winning.

It was rare for such a master to be able to talk to them calmly.

"Okay, I'll discuss this with my wife later. As the Tao says, I will definitely do it myself."

"Thank you!"

Before Murong Ji finished speaking, a murderous intent suddenly came from outside. A bone-chilling chill suddenly rose, making people break out in a cold sweat.

In an instant, Master Du's whole body shook, his demonic power burst out, and he shouted, "Madam!"

It turned into a stream of light, rushed out of the big tent, and headed towards the direction of the city.

Murong Ji frowned slightly, feeling the sharp murderous intent, "Royal Sword Intention!"

He murmured something, then looked down. Dongfang Qinlan was well protected by him and didn't feel anything at all.

Then, Murong Ji stood up and walked outside, carrying Dongfang Qinlan, who was stuffing fruit into her mouth.

"Wait! Wait!" As he spoke, Dongfang Qinlan used his swallowing sac to collect all the fruits on the table.

As soon as they left the tent and approached the city gate, they saw Wang Quan Baiye pointing a sword directly at the Du Niangzi and her husband.

"Strange, really strange. Just now you risked your life to carve a bloody path for this banshee."

"But this banshee turned around and blocked the fatal blow for you."

"After I struck you with that sword, you could have escaped, but you saved her from being seriously injured. You won't abandon her even if she's dead or alive. Do demons still abandon people even if they're dead or alive?"

Murong Ji stood aside speechlessly. Isn't this just causing trouble?

"Wow! They are those masks!" Dongfang Qinlan tugged at Murong Ji's clothes.

"Look at him, he is a chivalrous man with great virtue and fame, and then look at you, you have nothing but medical skills."

"You always scheme against my gentle and sweet partner. You are so mean and shameless, and you still miss my silly and cute sister..."

Murong Ji went up and slapped her on the head, "Not long ago, this guy invited me to join the Mask Group."

"Boasting! I said Wang Quan Shouzhuo begged me to be his apprentice! If they invite me and my sister to join the Mask Group..." Qin Lan turned her head, and when she saw the style of the mask clearly, Dongfang Qin Lan froze instantly, "Uh... that..."

"I think it's right not to join this mask group. Do you also think that mask is ugly?"

Murong Ji glanced at her unhappily, "I just can't adapt to the culture of their team..."

He stopped arguing with Qin Lan, stepped lightly, landed in front of Wang Quan Baiye, and swung his sword away, "Don't make trouble, things are almost done, and you are here!"

"I didn't know you were here! I thought you wouldn't come." Wang Quan Baiye put away his sword speechlessly.

Murong Ji was too lazy to pay attention to him. He squatted down and began to check the injuries of Poison Lady.

After feeding her a pill, Poison Lady slowly woke up and saw Murong Ji. I saw the mask behind him and gradually became alert.

"Your injuries are quite serious and you need to recuperate for a while." Murong Ji wrote a prescription and stuffed it into the hands of Master Du. "One dose of medicine a day. I guarantee that you will be completely cured within 20 days. The rest is to rest and recuperate." "Thank you, sir."

"Don't thank me, you and your wife still need to do the work."

After agreeing on all matters, Murong Ji took Dongfang Qinlan and flew away on a sword.

Wang Quan Baiye followed slowly from behind. Before he could speak, Murong Ji spoke first: "The credit for this incident should be attributed to my Chen family. You are just a troublemaker."

Wang Quanbaiye was shocked, "Well, you really are..."

Without waiting for Wang Quan Baiye to finish his words, Murong Ji interrupted and asked, "Where is Dongfang Huaizhu?"

Wang Quan Baiye was stunned again, "Dongfang... Huaizhu? What a good name."

Murong Ji glanced at Wang Quan Baiye. Although he couldn't see his expression, he could guess a general idea just by looking at his actions. Everyone likes beautiful girls, especially young men like him.

Suddenly, Murong Ji brought Dongfang Qinlan to Wang Quan Baiye and said, "Here is her gentle and sweet sister, we must return her to her."

Dongfang Qinlan looked at the masked face with embarrassment and slapped herself on the forehead. Her image was completely ruined by Murong Ji.

Being treated like a chicken is not only embarrassing, but it will also lower my sister's impression of me.

[This damn Murong Ji doesn't even consider me a brother! ! ]

Wang Quan Baiye was a little embarrassed. He didn't know why. Facing this little girl, he was a little flustered. "Brother Chen, um... is it okay to treat a cute little girl like this..."

"Cute? You don't know how evil she is..." Murong Ji casually threw Dongfang Qinlan to Wang Quan Baiye, "Besides, she's not my sister-in-law, I don't worry about her!"

Wang Quan Baiye hurriedly hugged Dongfang Qinlan and let her stand steadily on the sword. Then he heard Murong Ji say: "This is Wang Quan Baiye, his father is Wang Quan Shouzhuo, the one who begged you to be his apprentice."

Dongfang Qinlan looked at the masked face in astonishment and wanted to find a place to hide. Murong Ji was really too hateful... He did it on purpose, he must have done it on purpose!
The two of them stared at each other for a while, feeling inexplicably awkward.

In order to ease the embarrassment, Wang Quan Baiye said, "Why haven't I heard my father say that he wants to take in a junior sister..."

Dongfang Qinlan: "..."

The three of them came to a plain. There were very few trees here, and most of the area was grassland. It was rare to see such a place in the South.

In the middle of this plain, in front of the top of the largest tree, a person was floating, quietly looking towards the south.

Murong Ji looked and saw Dongfang Huaizhu.

"No way, so soon?"

Murong Ji twitched his lips. When he and Lu Xueqi were dating, how long did it take for her to fall for him? !
He muttered something, and to Dongfang Qinlan it seemed as if he had saved her life. He suddenly jumped up, landed behind Murong Ji, stepped on the Tianwen Sword, and stuck his head out from under Murong Ji's ink-colored Taoist robe.

Looking at his sister, he asked inquiringly, "Hey! What are you talking about so fast?"

Qin Lan followed Murong Ji's gaze and looked at her sister. She suddenly realized, "My sister seems to have fallen a little faster."

"But don't forget, he is a famous hero in the Taoist Alliance! He is very powerful, has a good family, and his personality... uh... my sister seems to be a straight person..."

Then, he turned to look at Wang Quan Baiye with an unhappy expression. This sudden glance scared Wang Quan Baiye.

"Could this masked man really become my brother-in-law?! My sister's taste isn't that great."

Murong Ji sneered, looked at Wang Quan Baiye who was at a loss, and said: "This boy is not bad looking, your sister has good taste."

"is it?"

Suddenly, Murong Ji turned his head and looked behind him, his eyes narrowed slightly, and his aura fluctuated unconsciously.

Wang Quanbaiye also became solemn. He turned his head and looked behind him, but found nothing.

"what happened?"

"Nothing." Murong Ji replied lightly, flying to Dongfang Huaizhu's side on his sword, and then he threw Dongfang Qinlan over directly.

Looking at the two sisters talking quietly, he frowned and released his true energy silently, spreading it around.

"Thank you, thank you Mr. Murong for taking care of Qin Lan."

Murong Ji felt a little helpless. Why was Dongfang Huaizhu always so strict with him? He couldn't like him at all.

Then, he sighed, turned his head to look at the three people on the grass below, and said in a deep voice: "Hurry up and come up, otherwise you will bear the consequences."

Ximen Chuisha, who was chatting and laughing, suddenly paused and looked at Shi Chi and the others. In the end, he chose to believe Murong Ji's words, controlled his magic weapon, flew into the air, and gathered towards Murong Ji and the others.
