C181 Being ambushed (1/2)
Is there some kind of monster down there?
Not good!
Li Jie seemed to recall something. There seemed to be a defensive skill of the Qing Yun Sect – the Water Qilin!
F * ck!
At this moment, Li Jie clearly remembered that when Zhang Xiaofan came to the Clear Sky Peak, he had alarmed the water qilin. He shouldn't have alarmed it.
Was it because he took the Blood Devouring Bead?
Li Jie thought for a moment. This seemed to be the only possibility.
”Bam!”
The water started to roar like a thunderclap. Following that, a huge whirlpool appeared in the water, followed by a huge wave being swept up.
A huge monster suddenly jumped out of the water.
Li Jie took a closer look and saw that it was the Aquatic Qilin.
Its entire body was green, and there was a bell hanging from its neck.
Water Qilin was called Spirit Master by those from the Cyan Cloud Sect because after the Great Fighting of the Righteous Devil, many demon beasts had attacked Qing Yun. Water Qilin had fought with those from the Qing Yun Sect to gain peace, but it was also heavily injured.
At this moment, it was standing in the water, but its head was still quite a bit taller than the rainbow bridge. From this, it could be seen how massive the water qilin was.
Li Jie retreated, not knowing what to do, how to respond.
This was the guardian beast of the Qing Yun Sect. If he really did injure it, it wouldn't be good either.
While Li Jie was worrying, he could already see another person flying towards him from the direction of Skypiercing Peak.
Li Jie looked carefully. It should be Daoxuan and a few of his junior brothers.
They must have sensed something and thought someone was invading Qing Yun, so they hurried over.
When Xuan Dao and Tian Buyi arrived at the rainbow bridge, they discovered that Li Jie was the only one there. They had no idea what was happening.
Each and every one of them looked towards Li Jie.
Li Jie couldn't help but feel a chill run down his spine when he saw this. Could it be that he had some sort of ulterior motive?
”What are all of you looking at me for? I don't know what's going on either. I just wanted to get some fresh air, and that's why such a monster appeared!”
Li Jie pretended to be innocent. Of course he knew the reason.
When he said the word 'monster', the Aquatic Qilin's eyes seemed to become sharper. It did not seem to be satisfied with this form of address.
”Young Hero must have been frightened. This is the guardian beast of our Cyan Cloud Sect, it will usually come out of this icy pond whenever there's a threat, and protect everyone in the pond. It's probably because Young Hero's face is a stranger, and his aura is unfamiliar to the Qilins in the water, that's why it's like this.”
On the other hand, Dao Xuan helped Li Jie explain. For a cultivator with this kind of strength to suddenly come to the Qing Yun Sect, it was possible that the Aquatic Qilin had made some strange movements. Dao Xuan did not arouse too much suspicion.
”Don't run around if you have nothing to do. If we came later and you got killed by the water qilin, that wouldn't be good.”
Daoist Cang Song's words revealed a hint of ridicule. He had always had an opinion of Li Jie.
”Cang Song, don't say that. Young Hero is just curious about Qingyun Peak.”
Tian Buyi also came out to help. He had yet to cause any trouble.
”Cang Song!” How can you speak! Young Hero, if you wish to take a walk in Qingyun Peak in the future, you can let me know in advance and I will find someone to guide you there. ”
Dao Xuan glanced at Cang Song, then his expression instantly changed. He said to Li Jie, ”I think very highly of Li Jie.”
”Good, good, good. I was a bit rash!”
