Rebirth of the Sovereign's Counterattack

For some reason, a trace of disappointment arose in Qi Yao's heart. She thought she was someone who liked her unreservedly, but she didn't expect to cling to her, but she was much better than others.

"Of course it is possible." Probably because of the satisfaction of vanity, Qi Yao can almost be called amiable.

Meng Qingyun was still about to speak, when suddenly there was a loud shout from outside the hall: "It's water!"

This sound was too ear-piercing in the silent night, everyone hurried out to have a look, only to see a raging fire emanating from the back mountain side hall of Yunyao Peak under the dark sky.

"What's going on?" Qi Yao said angrily, "What are you doing to eat? Hurry up and put out the fire!"

The disciples of Yunyao Peak recovered quickly, Lin Rufeng took the lead and led a group of disciples to put out the fire.

Qi Yao flicked her sleeves fiercely, and strode towards the burning side hall.Meng Qingyun said: "Senior sister, there is a fire in the side hall for no reason, I'm afraid something is wrong."

Qi Yao's steps stopped.At this time, a disciple hurried over with a bucket, Qi Yao stopped him and asked, "Is the fire too big?"

The disciple replied respectfully: "Brother Lin has mobilized most of his disciples to put out the fire, and the fire has been brought under control."

"That's good." Qi Yao breathed a sigh of relief, and seemed to suddenly think of something, and changed her expression, "You said that Lin Rufeng transferred most of the disciples?"

The disciple nodded.

"Too bad." Qi Yao walked back quickly.

"Senior sister, what's the matter?" Meng Qingyun asked.

Qi Yao didn't answer, and hurried into the main hall, then ran straight to the inner hall, and soon came to the treasure house.Meng Qingyun also followed.

The corridor of the treasure house was a bit dark, and there were no guards along the way. When Qi Yao arrived at the treasure house, she found that the door was open.

The people inside seem to have heard footsteps, and a man in black suddenly flashed out from the door.

"Where are you going?!" Qi Yao was furious, and she whipped out her whip and slammed it over.

Unexpectedly, the man avoided it and disappeared in a flash.

"Catch him!" Qi Yao roared.

Meng Qingyun was walking behind her, and called two other disciples to rush over on the way, just in time to bump into the man in black in the corridor.When the two sides meet, they immediately hand over.

Meng Qingyun stepped aside to avoid the battle.

The man in black left in a hurry, and there were two people on Meng Qingyun's side, so it was hard to tell the winner.While tugging, a disciple reached out to grab the man in black's face scarf, but the man in black raised his head to avoid it, and the disciple's hand caught the man in black's neckline, and tore his clothes with a bang.Seeing the clothes inside, the disciple was dumbfounded.

At this time, Qi Yao had already chased after her.Seeing that the situation was not good, the man in black struggled to break free from the siege of the three, and ran forward quickly.

"Idiot! Stop him!" Qi Yao was furious.

The disciple who tore open the clothes of the man in black suddenly said, "It's from the medicine garden!"

Qi Yao was taken aback for a moment, as if thinking of something, then raised her brows upside down, "Chase!"

A group of people hurriedly chased forward, and as more and more people were rounded up, the men in black had to flee to the burning back mountain side hall.It just so happened that Lin Rufeng heard that the treasure house had been stolen, so he hurried over with someone.Under heavy siege, the man in black rushed into the flames.

The flames lit up half of the sky, and the flames burned everything that broke into it.

Everyone dared not go forward any more and stopped outside the fire circle.

"He will definitely not survive such a fire." Meng Qingyun said softly.

After the fierce pursuit, Qi Yao's veil has long been removed, revealing a pale and beautiful face, but there are still small black spots on the face.

She turned her head and asked the disciple who tore open the clothes of the man in black, "Where did you say that man was from?"

"I saw the clothes he was wearing under the black clothes, which were only worn by the disciples of the medicine garden."

Meng Qingyun asked: "It was so dark at the time, could it be wrong?"

The disciple shook his head, "I can see it clearly."

Meng Qingyun asked again: "Do you know who that person is?"

The disciple was a little dazed, "This...he covered his face, so I can't see it."

Another disciple said: "He is relatively tall, so he should not be young."

Meng Qingyun stopped talking and asked Qi Yao, "Senior Sister, what should I do now?"

"I want to see who dares to steal my things." Qi Yao's eyes reflected the flames in the night, so bright that it was almost scorching, "Go to the medicine garden immediately to guard and see who is not there!"

medicine garden.

Liu Hao was woken up in his sleep, and when he heard the noise outside, he quickly got off the bed, put on a piece of clothing and hurried out the door.

In the medicine garden, there was also a group of disciples who heard the movement and waited and watched, whispering to each other.

"What happened?"

A disciple next to him came over and said, "Senior Brother, I heard that Senior Sister Qi is here to catch the thief."

"Catch the thief?" Liu was taken aback, "Catch the thief in the middle of the night? Why did you come to the medicine garden to catch the thief?"

The disciple shook his head, "I don't know either."

"Where's the elder? Did you tell the elder?"

"The elder fell asleep not long ago, and he hasn't bothered him yet."

When Liu Hao heard this, he immediately packed his clothes and hurried towards the courtyard where Elder Qin was. Before taking two steps, he saw Elder Qin had come out.

"What happened?" Elder Qin's face was very ugly.

Liu Hao stepped forward and said: "I heard that Senior Sister Qi brought people to catch the thief."

"Qi Yao? It's her again!" Elder Qin snorted heavily, with a gloomy face, "The members of the Qi family are really lawless, and Qi Shanfang is not the real head of the family, so he indulged his daughter to come to me to make trouble. Is there another elder like me?"

Liu Hao didn't dare to answer, and said: "Elder, let's go to the front and have a look."

A group of people surrounded Elder Qin to the gate of the medicine garden. From a distance, they saw two groups of people confronting each other at the gate. The ones guarding the gate to prevent people from entering were naturally the disciples of the medicine garden, and the ones who wanted to come in were naturally the people from Yunyao Peak.

"The elder is here!" Someone shouted, and the two parties who had been arguing fell silent at the same time.

Liu Hao accompanied Elder Qin to the door and stood still, and said to the people at the door: "Who is here, why are you making such a fuss in the medicine garden?"

The gate was brightly illuminated by the burning torches. After Liu Hao shouted, the people at the gate separated, and Qi Yao walked in from the inside, and bowed perfunctorily, "I greet Elder Qin."

"Qi Yao, what are you doing?" Elder Qin asked.

Qi Yao sneered, "Catch the thief."

"Catch a thief?"

"That's right." Qi Yao raised her eyebrows and said, "Tonight someone set fire to my back mountain and took advantage of the chaos to break into my treasury and steal it. Fortunately, my disciples found it. That thief is from your medicine garden!"

Elder Qin was very angry, "Nonsense! How could people from my medicine garden steal it? Have you seen who it is?"

Lin Rufeng beside Qi Yao arched his hands at him, "We didn't see clearly the face of the man in black, but we could clearly see that the clothes under his black clothes were the clothes of the disciples of the medicine garden. The man in black broke in In the sea of ​​fire, life and death are unknown, as long as the elders let us go in and check who is not there, we will know the true identity of the thief."

"You have no place to speak here!" Elder Qin glared at Lin Rufeng angrily.

Qi Yao turned her head, "Junior Brother Meng, come here."

Under Liu Hao's surprised eyes, Meng Qingyun and two Yunyao Peak disciples walked to the front, and under the watchful eyes of everyone, the three respectfully saluted Elder Qin.

Elder Qin looked at Meng Qingyun with an unhappy expression.

Liu Hao asked for him: "Junior Brother Meng, why are you here?"

Meng Qingyun smiled at him and said, "I have business with Senior Sister Qi tonight, and it happened that the treasury was stolen."

Elder Qin said: "Do you also think that people from my medicine garden stole it?"

Meng Qingyun shook his head, Elder Qin's face turned pale.

"Junior Brother Meng!" Qi Yao looked sharply at Meng Qingyun.

Meng Qingyun was not afraid, and said slowly: "The corridor was too dark at the time, and I was standing on the other side, so I couldn't see who that person was. Later, I heard someone call him a disciple of the medicine garden, and then I saw that person run away. As for the others, Qingyun doesn't know anything about it. Don't blame senior sister, Qingyun is just telling the truth."

Liu Hao was surprised that he dared not give Qi Yao face in person, and was a little worried that he would be blamed, but Qi Yao just gave Meng Qingyun a look and raised his jaw at the other two disciples.

Elder Qin's eyes softened when he looked at Meng Qingyun.

Under Qi Yao's signal, the disciple who saw the man in black said: "I wanted to tear off his face scarf, but I didn't expect to only tear off his clothes, but under his clothes are the clothes of the medicine garden. Indeed, I was not mistaken."

"Did anyone else see it?" Liu Hao asked.

Meng Qingyun turned to Lin Rufeng, "I wonder if Senior Brother Lin saw it?"

Lin Rufeng was slightly taken aback, and then said bluntly: "At that time, I was leading people to fight the fire, and the scene was chaotic, and that person ran into the fire scene in the chaos. As for who... I didn't see clearly. However, our people will not fight for no reason. The land wronged the medicine garden."

Elder Qin snorted coldly, "That is to say, there is no conclusive evidence to prove that people from my medicine garden did it?"

"But the medicine garden is the most suspect!" Qi Yao raised her brows, stepped forward and said, "Elder, please let us go in and investigate. We sealed off the side hall after the thief rushed into the fire, and the thief must not be there now." When you come back, you only need to check a little bit to find out."

"No need!" Elder Qin suppressed his anger and flicked his sleeves, "Call all the disciples over immediately and let her see them in person."

Liu Hao looked around and frowned slightly.With such a big commotion, Senior Brother Zhong would have come out a long time ago, why not come out now?

The disciples of the medicine garden stood in the open space in front of the gate one by one.As time goes by, there are more and more people.

"Is everything here?" Elder Qin asked.

Liu Hao took a look and said, "Reporting to Elder, it seems that Senior Brother Zhong didn't come."

Elder Qin was taken aback.

Liu Hao said: "Perhaps he fell asleep." Then he greeted another disciple, "Go to Senior Brother Zhong's room and wake up Senior Brother Zhong."

The night is like ink, and the autumn wind makes people's skin cold.The medicine garden disciples were sleepy at first, but now they were all awake when the cold wind blown them, waiting quietly one by one.

After a while, the disciple who was sent to call Zhong Yu hurried back and said, "Elder, Senior Brother Zhong is not here."

Elder Qin who had been waiting silently burst out, "Where did he go?"

The disciple was startled, "I have searched everywhere, even Gongfang, but I still haven't found it."

The disciples looked at each other in surprise.
