Chapter 649 Unwritten Rules
In a flash, he arrived outside.
They discovered that it was now completely dark.
Li Qiuwan was sitting cross-legged on a rock, just like him, regulating her breathing.
"Young Master Ding."
Ning Qi got up and walked over, startling her awake from her meditation.
"So, what's the situation?"
Ning Qi looked around and asked in a deep voice.
He was just in the inner realm, busy integrating the power of incense.
They had no idea what was happening in the outside world.
However, it looks fine.
"nothing."
Li Qiuwan smiled and looked ahead: "However, there is some movement ahead."
"However, it seems that someone is fighting these ferocious beasts, and they have already moved away from us."
"So, it has nothing to do with us."
"That's good."
Ning Qi also looked over.
At this moment, he could clearly sense strong fluctuations in the distance.
That clearly indicates a fierce battle is taking place.
However, as Li Qiuwan said, stay away from them.
Then there's no need to get involved.
"Master, it seems that they don't help everyone."
"As long as they are not from the same sect, there is no need to pay attention to them."
Yao Ling said with a smile.
"That's right, even if we're from the same sect."
"Even when faced with real danger, they will still each seek their own gain."
"Have you forgotten their senior brother?"
Ning Qi responded in his heart.
He remembered very clearly how pathetic their senior brother had been when he escaped.
He completely disregarded the lives of his fellow disciples.
As long as he lives, nothing else matters.
"Yes, even now, he shows no sign of repentance."
"Otherwise, their sect would probably already know about this."
"But these people are also quite something, they didn't even rush to report to their sect."
Yao Ling echoed.
"I'll ask her."
Ning Qi, on the contrary, was very interested.
Despite such a major incident, they haven't shown any intention of contacting the sect.
There must be something fishy going on here.
Let's see what's going on.
After saying that, he came over to Li Qiuwan and asked in a deep voice, "I remember that you had a senior brother who secretly ran away."
"Oh, you saw it all?"
Upon hearing his words, Li Qiuwan's eyes widened in surprise.
She never expected that Ning Qi would see this scene.
"Yes, I saw him run away, that's why I came out."
Ning Qi nodded and then said, "Why didn't you report this to the sect?"
"Shouldn't he be punished? How could you let him off so easily?"
"It's no use. He's our Grand Elder's son. Even if we report it, it's still no use."
"Given his status, no one will pursue the matter!"
"And he also had a reason to go back and get reinforcements."
Li Qiuwan sighed, a helpless look on her face: "This time, it was he who encouraged us to come here, hoping to gain merit and find some resources."
"So many of our fellow disciples have died, and he just left like that."
"Since you know who he is, why do you still stay with him?"
Ning Qi asked, somewhat puzzled.
They clearly know this kind of person, but they still follow him, so there's a problem.
"He is the commander of this operation."
Li Qiuwan then explained, "Therefore, we have to follow his arrangements in everything we do."
"Then, after this incident, you don't need to pay any attention to him anymore."
Upon hearing her words, Ning Qi couldn't help but remind her, "Otherwise, you will be harmed by him again."
"Yes, but there's nothing we can do about it."
"Within the sect, we can only follow the orders of the elders."
“If we don’t listen to him, he can report it to the sect and we will be punished as well.”
Li Qiuwan shook his head, a helpless expression on his face: "He has caused countless deaths and injuries to our fellow disciples time and time again."
"But it is precisely because of this identity that he has always been protected and no one can do anything to him."
"I see."
Upon hearing her explanation, Ning Qi immediately understood what was going on.
"Master, it seems that every family has its own troubles."
Yao Ling said with a sigh, "If she hadn't told us, we wouldn't have known what was going on."
"Yes, then that has nothing to do with us."
"We just need to acquire an identity and wait until we reach their branch headquarters."
"We'll find a way to break away from them, and then it'll just be a reputation for betraying the sect."
"With this senior brother's matter, I can also talk to some people about it."
After hearing her words, Ning Qi actually thought of a way to leave them.
With his strength, it's impossible for him to stay with these people for long.
He needs to go to a more powerful place so that he can come into contact with more and more dangerous traces of the immortals.
Only then will there be hope of obtaining more resources and finding the magical artifacts and magical weapons that he can currently use.
Otherwise, he only has one or two weapons, which is simply not enough.
“Young Master Ding, after you return with us, you will also have to follow his orders.”
"You absolutely must not challenge him, or he will retaliate against you."
Li Qiuwan looked at Ning Qi and couldn't help but remind him with concern.
Although she didn't know Ning Qi well, she could tell from his expression.
He was also an unruly person.
Especially considering his identity—he was a rogue cultivator.
They are usually not used to being restrained by others.
"I'm just starting out, exchanging it for an identity."
"Why should we listen to his arrangements?"
Ning Qi didn't take it to heart and continued, "Isn't this about respecting strength?"
"You went to the main altar, and this is how it is."
"But it's not the same for us small branch leaders; it's all about nepotism."
Li Qiuwan shook her head and explained, "Even if you have extraordinary abilities, you still have to follow our arrangements when you come here."
"Otherwise, you will be expelled, and it's very likely you'll be sent back."
"If they want to harm you, they might even send you to the most dangerous place."
"oh, I understand now."
After listening to her explanation, Ning Qi finally understood what was going on.
"Master, it seems our method won't work!"
"I can't help but say that," Yao Ling said.
"Well, it might not be impossible."
Ning Qi smiled and then said, "Since that's how they are, then I'll find an opportunity to kill them as soon as possible."
"With my abilities, becoming a commander shouldn't be a problem."
"Master, but what if they find out?"
Yao Ling continued.
If that's the case, then his plan won't work.
"so what."
"I'll find a suitable opportunity."
Ning Qi said nonchalantly, "That's not a problem. It just depends on what tasks they have next."
"OK then."
Yao Ling had no choice but to agree. He knew Ning Qi well; once Ning Qi made up his mind, there was no way to dissuade him.
"Young Master Ding, you should rest too; it's already past midnight."
"I'm going to rest now."
By this time, Zhao Cheng had already come up from the foot of the mountain.
Li Qiuwan only spoke to Ning Qi after she saw him.
"it is good!"
Ning Qi didn't delay any longer.
He already knows some of the details.
As for the rest, we can learn about them gradually along the way.
Asking too many questions at once can easily arouse suspicion.
"Senior Sister!"
It was at this moment that Zhao Cheng also came up.
He greeted them respectfully as he approached.
"The rest is up to you. Be careful and don't slack off!"
When Li Qiuwan saw him come up, she earnestly reminded him.
"Understood, Senior Sister!"
Zhao Cheng nodded, revealing a confident expression.
He has recuperated and recovered.
"Then I'll go down the mountain to rest."
Li Qiuwan was clearly also very sleepy.
They had used all their strength to escape, which had taken a heavy toll on them.
Therefore, it is necessary to adjust one's breathing and recuperate immediately.
Ning Qi could not comprehend this situation.
He is already very strong, not to mention he has the added blessing of incense offerings.
He will be helpless unless his inner world collapses.
After giving a greeting, Li Qiuwan went straight down the mountain.
Ning Qi is here, and he's also going to rest.
Although he didn't expend any energy, he still needed to conserve his strength.
He couldn't afford to miss any opportunity to rest here, as he didn't know what would happen next.
Maintaining peak performance at all times is the key to success.
"Young Master Ding, thank you for your help before."
Seeing that Ning Qi was still there, Zhao Cheng started chatting with him.
"No need to be polite, we're on the same side from now on."
Ning Qi waved his hand with a smile, showing no sign of caring.
"Then we should thank you. If it weren't for you, we would probably have been completely devoured by that ferocious beast long ago."
Zhao Cheng scratched his head and continued, "Once you come to our sect, you'll definitely stand out."
"With your abilities, you could easily become a commander here."
"Oh, am I that strong?"
Hearing this, Ning Qi couldn't help but smile and ask.
He was actually very clear about his own abilities.
However, he never showed it to them from beginning to end.
"Young Master Ding, you are much better than our senior brother."
"He shows no sign of repentance to this day, otherwise our master would have contacted us long ago!"
Zhao Cheng sighed and began to complain.
"Oh, then why don't you take the initiative to contact your master?"
Ning Qi pretended to be unaware and asked.
“It’s no use saying anything; it will only get us scolded by our master.”
Zhao Chengzhang sighed and turned his gaze forward: "Who told us to be so weak?"
"You might encounter some opportunities here in the future."
"Don't be discouraged, you can definitely do it."
Ning Qi, on the contrary, smiled and encouraged him.
"Then I will borrow your blessing!"
Upon hearing this, Zhao Cheng clasped his hands in a fist salute and said gratefully, "No one has ever said such a thing to us before."
"Then, as you become stronger, this situation will happen at any time."
Ning Qi always had an optimistic and cheerful demeanor.
This made Zhao Cheng admire and envy Ning Qi very much.
Only a rogue cultivator could be so carefree as him.
As Zhao Cheng pondered this, he looked ahead again.
Ahead of him, he could already see the fluctuations of some people fighting.
Waves of air also surged toward this side.
"Something's not right. Why were they hitting from such a distance just now?"
"They've gotten so close to us without us noticing?"
Zhao Cheng frowned, revealing a worried expression.
He never expected that he would encounter such a problem so soon after he arrived.
He had just noticed that the two sides currently engaged in battle had moved away from them.
"Perhaps they discovered our presence and are deliberately heading this way."
Ning Qi narrowed his eyes and focused his gaze ahead.
At this moment, intense light waves began to appear in front of them.
This was clearly their battle, and it was already getting closer to them.
If that's the case, then it won't be long before these people or ferocious beasts arrive here.
Therefore, they will definitely be attacked here.
Many people will be implicated because of them.
"I'll go tell my senior sister to prepare to leave early, as these people are very likely heading this way!"
Zhao Cheng looked worried and said to Ning Qi, "Young Master Ding, keep an eye on things here. Notify us immediately if anything happens."
"I have to go down there and tell everyone that it's not safe here."
I don't think you necessarily need to go!
Ning Qi smiled and said easily, "They are at least several hundred miles away from here."
"As long as we don't reveal ourselves, they won't be able to find out that we're still here!"
"But they're already on their way. If they want to deal with us, it'll only take a thought!"
"We have no way out here; we can only fight to the death here."
Zhao Cheng remained worried, watching the battle ahead with vigilance.
"Okay, go ahead, I'll keep an eye on things from here!"
"Call me anytime if anything happens!"
Ning Qi stopped trying to persuade him and let him leave.
“Master, what he said makes sense. Let’s go.”
Yao Ling also turned her gaze away, revealing a worried expression: "We need to hurry while they're still here."
"Don't worry, I've already checked."
"Their combined strength is far inferior to mine."
"Even if they come, we don't care!"
Ning Qi smiled and then said.
Just now, he had actually used the power of incense to empower himself, allowing his divine consciousness to concentrate into a divided spirit.
They went to the battlefield to investigate the situation.
He knew what had happened over there early on, so with his strength, he didn't need to worry about any problems.
"Oh, you've already gone to investigate?"
Upon hearing this, Yao Ling couldn't help but show an expression of disbelief.
The Medicine Spirit was unaware that Ning Qi was already able to utilize the power of incense offerings.
If he knew, he wouldn't be making such a fuss.
"That's right, so you've gone to unnecessary trouble."
"I'll stay here and wait for them to come!"
Ning Qi nodded, then sat down on the stone slab and closed his eyes.
He didn't take the current situation seriously at all.
"Master, I think we should tell them so they won't panic."
Yao Ling suddenly thought of something and continued, "Otherwise, if they are unaware and insist on leaving, we'll be in trouble too." (End of Chapter)
