Chapter 691: Enemies Meet
Listening to the criticisms of the crowd, Duan Qing had a blank expression on his face, not knowing what to say.
If he had known that there was a villain, he would not have come to explain!
It was really self-defeating!
At this moment, Duan Qing wanted to tear Wu Qiming's broken mouth apart so that he could no longer gossip!
"What happened?" At this time, a majestic voice came from the front of the crowd.
Duan Qing looked sideways and found that it was Mo Chongzhi, who was walking towards this place.
Seeing Mo Chong coming, the originally noisy crowd suddenly became silent.
Those who had just been clamoring to find Mo Chongzhi to ask for an explanation did not dare to say a word at this time.
The mighty Mo Chongzhi walked forward slowly, and the aura emanating from his body made everyone dare not breathe.
Mo Chongzhi stopped, looked around the crowd, and asked again in a deep voice: "What is the reason for such a noise?"
Wu Qiming in the crowd glanced at Duan Qing with hatred, mustered up his courage and stepped forward, bowed to Mo Chongzhi and said: "Junior Tianyun Sect Wu Qiming, meet Senior Mo."
Mo Chongzhi did not speak, but stared at Wu Qiming expressionlessly, waiting for his next words.
Wu Qiming gritted his teeth and said: "Report to Senior Mo, just now your sect's fellow Daoist Duan came back and said that he had other important matters and could not help us to quell the rebellion. We felt that something was wrong and said a few more words!"
While speaking, he also pointed at Duan Qing to Mo Chongzhi.
His words directly pointed the spearhead at Duan Qing, but he never mentioned that he was fanning the flames and making trouble, and completely shirked his responsibility.
After hearing what Wu Qiming said, Mo Chongzhi looked at Duan Qing and asked, "Is this true?"
"Uncle Mo, I was summoned by Senior Shui Daozi just now, but I have other arrangements and cannot go with Uncle Mo." Duan Qing bowed to Mo Chongzhi and said neither servilely nor arrogantly.
Mo Chongzhi and his master Mu Yu are from the same clan and generation, so it is reasonable for him to call him uncle.
After listening to what Duan Qing said, Mo Chongzhi said coldly, "Do you have any evidence?"
Mo Chongzhi's doubts made Duan Qing frown slightly.
At present, only he, Hu Yanheng, and Shui Daozi know about this matter. He doesn't necessarily want to pull Shui Daozi to explain it!
Thinking of this, Duan Qing glanced at Hu Yanheng beside him and said lightly, "Fellow Daoist Hu Yan was also at the scene at that time."
Duan Qing's words made everyone focus their attention on Hu Yanheng.
Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, Hu Yanheng was silent for a moment, and then nodded heavily.
With the testimony of Hu Yanheng, the first of the younger generation of Wuxiang Sect, Mo Chongzhi no longer questioned and nodded slightly, saying: "Since it was arranged by Fellow Daoist Shui himself, you must go all out!"
"Follow the teachings of Uncle Master, and I will take my leave first!" Duan Qing said, and left the scene quickly with Hu Yanheng.
After walking away, Duan Qing thought of what happened just now and sighed deeply.
It seems that Mo Chongzhi is still dissatisfied with him because of his son Mo Jian's matter.
His attitude just now seemed fair on the surface, but Duan Qing still keenly noticed that there was a little anger in Mo Chongzhi's words.
In the final analysis, he was still weak in strength!
...
Not long after Duan Qing and Hu Yanheng returned to their residence, Lin Ziyu came to the door.
What surprised Duan Qing was that Lin Ziyu was accompanied by old acquaintances Zhaixing, Yuan Wuwu, and Yuan Wuwu's senior sister Wufang.
"Does Fellow Daoist Lin have something to do with Duan?" Duan Qing looked at Zhaixing and others and asked Lin Ziyu.
Lin Ziyu smiled mischievously, pointing at Zhaixing and others behind him, and wanted to introduce them to Duan Qing.
Duan Qing raised his hand and interrupted, "We are all acquaintances, so there is no need to introduce them, Fellow Daoist Lin."
Lin Ziyu looked at Zhaixing and others strangely, then set her eyes on Duan Qing, and said with relief, "Okay, then Ziyu will not introduce me any more!"
"The sect leader has explained the matter to Ziyu, and Ziyu will lead Brother Duan and his party to the Tuling Peak for defense."
Hearing Lin Ziyu say this, Duan Qing didn't understand that the people who went to the Tuling Peak with him to assist in defense were Zhaixing and others.
For a moment, Duan Qing didn't know what to say.
This Shui Daozi is too picky.
Why did he pick Zhaixing and Yuan Wuwu!
The grudge between him and these two people is not ordinary!
Seeing Duan Qing not speaking, Zhaixing said with a fake smile: "Why, Daoist Duan is so excited to see me that you can't speak?"
Duan Qing glanced at Zhaixing and said with a half-smile: "After not seeing each other for a few days in Diling City, Daoist Zhaixing is still so humorous!"
When Duan Qing mentioned Diling City, Zhaixing was immediately furious and glared at Duan Qing fiercely, wishing to cut Duan Qing into pieces.
That day, Duan Qing had ambushed him outside Diling City, causing him to almost die at the hands of the red-eyed ghost.
If he hadn't acted decisively and used a precious wild pill, I'm afraid there would be no Zhaixing in the world today!
After taking a few deep breaths, Zhaixing suppressed his anger and sneered at Duan Qing: "Haha, I think Daoist Duan is much more humorous than me!"
In the past, if someone treated him like this, he would definitely fight on the spot without saying a word.
But after dealing with Duan Qing many times and suffering losses repeatedly, he did not dare to break up with Duan Qing easily.
He knew very well that if they really fought, he would be the loser in the end.
Lin Ziyu felt that the atmosphere was not right and guessed that Zhaixing might not get along with Duan Qing.
So he secretly sent a message to Duan Qing: "Brother Duan, do you want Ziyu to report to the sect master and exchange a few people to go to Tuling Peak with Brother Duan?"
Duan Qing glanced at Lin Ziyu and shook his head calmly.
Shui Daozi has already asked him, an outsider, to lead the team to Tuling Peak to assist in the defense, which shows how short of manpower the Five Elements Sect is.
Wouldn't it be unreasonable for him to trouble Shui Daozi again?
Furthermore, Zhaixing and Yuan Wuwu hated him and wanted to take action against him, so why didn't he want to take action against them.
This time when he goes to Tu Ling Peak, he may have a chance to get rid of the two of them to avoid future troubles.
"Haha, since everyone arranged by Master Shui has arrived, Duan is going to call fellow Taoist Huyan, and we will set off immediately to Tuling Peak." Duan Qing stared at Zhaixing and others and said meaningfully.
After saying that, he immediately returned to the courtyard and called Hu Yanheng.
Soon, Duan Qing and Hu Yanheng walked out of the courtyard, smiled at Lin Ziyu and said, "Fellow Daoist Lin, I will trouble you to lead the way to Tu Ling Peak this time!"
"Brother Duan is so polite! The sect master has already told us that this time we go to Tu Ling Peak to assist in the defense, and Brother Duan will lead the team. Ziyu is naturally the only one who follows Brother Duan's lead." When saying this, Lin Ziyu glanced at him with a vague look. The meaning of the three people reaching for the stars couldn't be more obvious.
