Chapter 647

He leaped directly forward, landing before Xiao Shiyilang.

He raised the token and scolded the Qin Ruishi.

"The Qinglong Society is here—do you truly intend to go to war with the Qinglong Society?"

The squad of Qin Ruishi, moments ago charging with unstoppable momentum.

Seeing Feng Siniang and the token, they all reined in their horses and halted.

This is truly shameless!

We only countercharged because you charged at us!

How did it become us, the Great Qin, wanting to wage war against the Qinglong Society?

The Qin Ruishi internally seethed but dared not act on their own.

"Little miss, if you keep causing trouble, I'll bind you and deliver you personally to Qinglong Peak."

Bai Qi, glaring at Feng Siniang, gritted his teeth and couldn't help speaking.

He had no idea where Qinglong Peak was.

He was worldly-wise enough to see that although Feng Siniang was of the Qinglong Society, she was certainly not a core member.

Xiao Shiyilang and Shen Bijun were most likely not of the Qinglong Society.

Thus, if Feng Siniang continued acting recklessly, Bai Qi had no objection to imprisoning her.

Feng Siniang saw Bai Qi's murderous aura filling the sky; she knew he wouldn't dare kill her, but he would certainly imprison her.

As she pondered how to proceed next.

"Amitabha, good, good—General Bai, take a look at this old monk. Don't trouble this little miss or Master Xiao."

As the two sides remained locked in stalemate, a Buddhist chant rang out.

The next moment, an old monk appeared abruptly beside Feng Siniang.

He first spoke to Bai Qi, then turned to Feng Siniang and said,

"Little miss, this old monk's dharma name is Fa Zhi, of Jin Shan Temple. Recently, I was honored by the Four Dragon Heads and Mr. Xu Xian to join the Qinglong Society as a guest minister!"

So this old monk was indeed Fa Zhi of Jin Shan Temple!

Yet no one knew why he had suddenly left Qinglong Peak and appeared here.

Hearing that this man was a guest minister of the Qinglong Society, personally introduced by Senior Xiaoyaozi and Seeing Di Shitian,

Feng Siniang, under Master Hua Xi's command, had also received this news.

Her eyes lit up; she bowed to Fa Zhi, then pointed at Bai Qi and the Qin soldiers, saying,

"Master Fa Zhi, these Qin people are utterly unreasonable.

They've dared to threaten war against the Qinglong Society!"

Can you stop making things up? When did I ever say that?

Hearing Feng Siniang fabricate lies publicly and slander him,

Bai Qi, locked in his struggle with Xiao Pei, nearly spat out a mouthful of blood.

"Don't speak nonsense—I never said I intended to wage war against the Qinglong Society!"

To declare war on other powers—Tang, Yuan—he could say it, and Ying Zheng would likely not punish him.

But to declare war on the Qinglong Society? Unless Ying Zheng and Bai Qi were mad, they wouldn't dare mention it now.

"Enough! Siniang, don't speak recklessly."

Fa Zhi smiled faintly; he knew the Great Qin wouldn't start a war without cause, and said to Bai Qi,

"Regardless, please remove the barrier first!

We of the Qinglong Society are protecting Xiao Pei and the Ge Lu Dao!"

"…."

Bai Qi and his soldiers were all covered in dark lines.

Fa Zhi's words dripped with domineering swagger.

You're a monk, aren't you? Do you really need to be more domineering than I am?

But since Fa Zhi had said this, Bai Qi had no recourse.

Not remove it?

Then Fa Zhi would surely say: You, Bai Qi, are representing the Great Qin in declaring war on the Qinglong Society.

Remove it?

Then the Ge Lu Dao is lost—how will he explain this to Your Majesty?

456 Even You Dongying's Heavenly Locust couldn't match a Wu Gou Shanzhuang?

"What? Is General Bai planning to…?"

Seeing Bai Qi hesitate, Fa Zhi spoke again.

Bai Qi sensed his tone was dangerous; he muttered a curse under his breath and immediately dissolved the blood-red barrier.

The blood and sweat of the three squads had been wasted!

His heart felt like it was bleeding.

With the blood-red barrier gone, Xiao Pei's pressure dropped sharply.

He hastily sheathed the Ge Lu Dao.

Gasping for breath, he couldn't recover for a long while.

Clearly, had Fa Zhi not appeared, every extra moment Xiao Pei held out was burning his life away.

Xiao Shiyilang was overjoyed; he immediately leaped to Xiao Pei's side, pressing his palm against Xiao Pei's back and sending a stream of true qi into him.

Though true qi was far inferior to true yuan.

But both were members of the Guard-Knife Clan, cultivating the same cultivation method.

As soon as the true qi entered his body, Xiao Pei felt somewhat better.

"You damn brat!"

Having recovered, Xiao Pei slapped the back of Xiao Shiyilang's head and shouted,

"When I was your age, I was already at least at the Peerless rank.

And you? You're barely a Master.

Yet you dare be so presumptuous as to go throw your life away.

Have you never thought—what meaning is there in dying like this?"

Just now, when Xiao Shiyilang charged head-on against the Qin Ruishi, Xiao Pei was powerless, wishing he could die himself.

He longed more than anything for the man charging to his death to be himself.

Though Xiao Shiyilang did this to save him.

Still, he could not quell his rage.

If Fa Zhi had not appeared, Feng Siniang could never have held off the Qin Ruishi for long.

Once Bai Qi made up his mind and sealed off Feng Siniang,

Xiao Shiyilang would only die uselessly here.

Thinking of this, he didn't care whether he'd hurt his own son—he moved instantly to Fa Zhi's side.

He bowed low, offering a deep salute,

"Master Fa Zhi, thank you for saving my life and my son's today!"

Fa Zhi smiled broadly, waved his hand, and said,

"This humble monk merely followed orders! Master Xiao, forgive me."

The first part was fine, but the latter words were deeply suspicious.

Xiao Pei's instincts screamed danger—he prepared to retreat.

But Fa Zhi's strength far surpassed his own.

At this moment, Xiao Pei was utterly exhausted—how could he possibly evade it?

As Fa Zhi spoke, he lightly swept his hand, sealing off several vital acupoints on Xiao Pei's chest.

Xiao Pei's Heavenly Being Realm true yuan was instantly sealed by that single sweep.

"What? Master Fa Zhi?"

Sudden change—Feng Siniang looked utterly bewildered.

"Dad!"
