Chapter 113: Chapter 112: Such Arrogance

In the inner courtyard of the Demon-slaying Bureau, Xun Xian and Wei Qingzhu stood within the yard.

Xun Xian pricked up her ears, trying to eavesdrop on the possible conversation between the two people inside the room.

Unfortunately, the room seemed to have a seal, and the conversation between them was airtight, leaving her completely unaware of what was happening inside.

"Do they really have so many secrets to share? Or has Yuchi already hit rock bottom?"

Xun Xian stood outside with doubt.

She fundamentally believed that Yuchi was quite an honest person.

It’s just that his private life was somewhat chaotic, and his tastes were rather strong.

So, when such a person suddenly faced her godfather, it wasn’t certain if her godfather would like him.

If by chance he didn’t, wouldn’t Yuchi be in big trouble?

With this thought, Xun Xian felt a bit anxious.

As the time of an incense stick passed, she felt that Yuchi’s chances of demise had risen to fifty percent.

Holding on to the principle that if Yuchi really died, it had nothing to do with her, she solemnly looked at Wei Qingzhu beside her.

During the girl’s silent wait, Xun Xian said softly:

"Qingzhu, this time it was Yuchi who actively asked me for help."

"So, whatever happens next, it doesn’t have much to do with me."

"You should know that when dealing with people from the Defense Department, especially those at the boss level, it requires quite the skill."

"Not to mention, the Defense Department isn’t particularly concerned with matters in such small towns strictly speaking."

Start passing the buck.

Wei Qingzhu looked at her in confusion, wondering why the other was saying these inexplicable words.

Turning to face Xun Xian, Xun Xian awkwardly continued, "So if something happens to Yuchi, don’t seek revenge on me."

"I still like you a lot, you’re a very sweet girl."

"Rest assured, as long as I have food, you’ll certainly have something to drink."

Wei Qingzhu frowned slightly, "Miss Xun, are you suggesting that Brother Yuchi might be in mortal danger?"

"I didn’t say that, you deduced it yourself," Xun Xian replied sheepishly.

Others might not know the situation, but she did.

Her godfather usually didn’t get along well with others, he was quite the eccentric type.

Originally, when Yuchi was beside him, she thought that Yuchi wouldn’t be in any danger.

But now that Yuchi wasn’t around, she felt a bit uneasy.

After all, Yuchi was facing a formidable Golden Patrol, a terrifying Core Formation Stage existence.

And Yuchi was just a mortal.

If Yuchi said even one wrong word, the whim of a Core Formation Stage cultivator could end Yuchi painlessly and immediately.

Wei Qingzhu, on the contrary, laughed out lightly.

"Brother Yuchi is just playing around, I don’t understand why you all take it seriously." Her tone was slightly displeased.

Isn’t it so, Yuchi is surely her master, and previously he even took in a Golden Core Stage cultivator.

Would such a cultivator fear such a small place?

You’re kidding.

And this inexplicable woman was here cursing her master to death?

This is why Wei Qingzhu felt she had no cultivation.

If she could just circle with the other for a bit, she would’ve long rushed forward with spiritual qi to challenge her.

"Just playing around...?" Xun Xian was left speechless by Wei Qingzhu’s retort, standing still for a moment.

As a patrol, she felt the situation was a bit subtle, as if Wei Qingzhu’s words had hidden meanings.

And why, when she spoke, did it give her an air of confidence?

As if everything was within her expectations?

It’s quite strange, as Yuchi really was just a mortal, and all signs further proved this.

Otherwise, if he were a cultivator, why would he need her, Xun Xian, to come and help?

Was he that idle?

Moreover, the temperament of this Wei Qingzhu girl seemed a bit unusual.

She was utterly submissive beside Yuchi, whatever Yuchi said was met with her "Yes", or "Okay".

But why with her, even when she spoke kindly, she got rebutted?

This little temper...

"I like it!"

Xun Xian’s face started to blush, looking back at Wei Qingzhu, she proactively asked, "Qingzhu, what’s your relationship with Yuchi?"

"He is my Brother Yuchi."

Wei Qingzhu stood calmly in the courtyard.

A tall and proud pine stood straight at her side.

Her words were equally proud.

Xun Xian found herself completely cornered, she initially wanted to see if Wei Qingzhu needed help.

At least, Wei Qingzhu’s arrival was quite unique, and she could accompany Yuchi out this time.

Just to see if she’s being oppressed by Yuchi.

To be honest.

If Yuchi really harmed Wei Qingzhu or controlled her thoughts, even if it was Yuchi, she wouldn’t be soft-hearted.

Not to say she would directly take out Yuchi or anything, but she would certainly help this innocent girl.

However...

Others simply don’t care.

Still prepared to ask further questions.

Wei Qingzhu was not pleased.

"Miss Xun, just handle your own business."

"Don’t ask too much. Often, the more you know, the more dangerous it is."

Wei Qingzhu said calmly.

"...Such arrogance."

Xun Xian took a step back, surprised, looking at Wei Qingzhu.

This girl has a temper, one couldn’t tell when she was beside Yuchi!

Now that Yuchi wasn’t around, not only did Wei Qingzhu seem outwardly distant, but she was also inwardly quite proud?

It was certainly so.

Wei Qingzhu’s high natural talent, combined with her family’s original high status, was indeed substantial.

She was willing to be grateful for Yuchi’s life-saving grace, to submit to him.

She could endure a year of hardship out of gratitude for his rescue, but that didn’t mean anyone could make such jokes with her.

From Wei Qingzhu’s past life, she saw too many Defense Department people.

On the surface, they protected the people, but in reality, they constantly harmed the people.

And they self-righteously thought they upheld justice, meddling in everything?

Truly think they’re the righteous protagonist from a story? They’re extremely annoying, preaching kindness when it doesn’t concern them.

Elsewhere, she wouldn’t want to interfere nor bother, but why the inexplicable accusation against her Brother Yuchi?

Simply meddlesome.

"Can’t you speak nicely, why create conflicts out of nothing?" Wei Qingzhu thought inwardly.

She looked at the tightly closed door in front of her.

And this door was like her heart, also tightly closed.

Besides Yuchi, no one could knock.

Xun Xian didn’t know the situation, and after being rebuffed by Wei Qingzhu, she obediently stood behind without speaking.

If she knew the actual situation.

Then she might know why Yuchi wanted to take Wei Qingzhu out for a spin.

To Yuchi, he never imagined that just being away for a while, Wei Qingzhu would get into a spat with Xun Xian.

The cause was somewhat dramatic.

It had a hint of a situation, a feeling of unrequited affection.

Xun Xian intending to help, accidentally stepped on Wei Qingzhu’s face.
