C565 Bad News Kept Coming
But where did the followers of heaven and earth find out about Sloppy Monk's relationship with him?
Du Qi knew that the Heaven and Earth Sect had never relaxed their attacks on him. Excluding him, it was not hard to tell from their attacks on Sloppy Monk. They wanted to get rid of him, and how determined they were. Perhaps... They would attack him before the Mid-Autumn Festival. He wondered if the attack on them the previous time was a probing attack by the disciples of the Heaven and Earth Cult.
As he spoke, Shui Wuhen untied his bag and revealed a large dark red gourd. That was Sloppy Monk's item. It should belong to Shui Wuhen now. Maybe it was because Du Qi looked sad and sad, but Shui Wuhen comforted him instead, "Sloppy Monk has been doing his duty to live a peaceful life, so you don't need to feel sad about it. What he couldn't rest assured about the most was young master's safety. Therefore... I followed Sloppy Monk's instructions and hurried over to inform you to keep an eye on the people around me." After saying that, Shui Wuhen raised the gourd and took a sip.
Without needing anyone to specifically instruct him, Du Qi had already thoroughly investigated the people around him one by one. When he heard this, Du Qi could not help but feel grateful. He was grateful that Sloppy Monk still did not forget his safety even when he was dying. He had been secretly protected by such a loyal and courageous person. What else could Du Qi ask for? He quickly said, "Thank you for your trouble, Wuhen. In the future, Du Qi will have to borrow a lot of money. I hope that Wuhen will lend me a lot of help."
Shui Wuhen said, "Protecting Young Master and helping Young Master is my responsibility. Even if Young Master strongly objects, I will still do my duty. Therefore, Young Master, feel free to instruct me if you need anything. I will definitely spare no effort!"
Du Qi was overjoyed and said, "Seeing that the mid-autumn season is about to arrive, I am feeling lonely. With Wuhen's help, the matter is done!"
Shui Wuhen said, "It is not convenient for me to interfere in young master's matters. It is just that young master doesn't seem to care about the words that I have passed on to Sloppy Monk. This has somewhat made me unhappy."
Du Qi said with a smile, "Wuhen, don't worry. This matter has already been in my heart for a long time. None of them will be able to hide it from me!"
Shui Wuhen looked at Du Qi strangely, but said in a flat tone, "Since that's the case, I have been worrying too much. May I know what orders Young Master has?"
Du Qi said solemnly, "As long as my life is not endangered, Wuhen can pretend not to know. It's just that you can't talk about our relationship in front of anyone. Otherwise, both of us will be in great danger!"
Shui Wuhen said, "I will follow Young Master's orders!"
Du Qi smiled and said, "Alright, let's go see them now. I think you will like them."
Shui Wuhen said, "I only care about the safety of young master. I don't care about other people or things. As long as young master recognizes someone, I will accept them unconditionally."
Du Qi smiled with satisfaction and said, "That's good. Ha, let's go!"
Looh Miaoer, Ma Yuxiao and the other girls followed Ren Dongming to the hall. Suddenly, they saw a beautiful young nun standing beside Du Qi. Du Qi, on the other hand, changed his usual smiling face. His handsome face looked like he was thinking about something, but also seemed to be secretly sad. It was as if someone owed him money and did not want to pay it back. All of them could not help feeling strange. They naturally knew that Du Qi would never meet an outsider for no reason, nor would he let them meet someone they had nothing to do with. It seemed that this nun must have done something to make Du Qi unhappy.
Looking at Ren Dongming, Looh Miaoer, and the other girls who had already found their seats, Du Qi said weakly, "This is Lady Shui Wuhen. She came here on Daoist priest Fenghuo's orders to deliver the news from the capital. She will live with us in the future, and we will be closer to each other!"
Most of them knew about the relationship between Du Qi and Daoist priest Fenghuo, and they heard that Shui Wuhen was sent by Daoist priest Fenghuo. All of them felt relieved, and they all met up with Shui Wuhen. However, they saw Du Qi's unhappy expression. None of them dared to say anything. After some small talk, they immediately quieted down. Looh Miaoer said, "What good news did Immortal Lady Shui bring?"
Du Qi stared at Looh Miaoer and said snappily, "Wuhen said that Sloppy Monk was killed by a devil disciple of the Heaven and Earth Cult. Is this good news?"
Everyone was stunned when they heard this. Most of them did not know about Sloppy Monk. Even those who had seen Sloppy Monk before did not know about his relationship with Du Qi, so they did not really care about his death. Only Looh Miaoer said in surprise, "How is this possible? Could Immortal Water be sure that the person who killed Sloppy Monk was a disciple of Heaven and Earth? "
Shui Wuhen said with slight sadness, "This is what Daoist priest Fenghuo said. It must be true!"
Looh Miaoer still did not believe it and said to herself, "Sloppy Monk's cultivation base is close to the heaven and earth realm. Who can kill him? Why do you want to kill him?"
Shui Wuhen said, "Heaven and Earth Sect's Twelve Devils secretly poisoned him in the front and ambushed him in the back. After that, they gathered together to attack him. What they did was extremely despicable and despicable. Even so, three of the twelve devils of the Heaven and Earth Cult were killed on the spot. The rest were all injured, and four of them were seriously injured. In the end, we can only leave with the help of our companions. "
Looh Miaoer continued, "I've heard that the twelve devils of the Heaven and Earth Cult are all highly skilled in martial arts and have always been independent. They are also divided into different parts of the world. Why would they gather in one place to kill Sloppy Monk?"
Shui Wuhen sneered and said, "I'm afraid that only they themselves will understand."
Du Qi said, "This is a very critical period. I need to know the situation in all parts of the world. What does Elder Ren have to say?"
Ren Dongming paused for a moment and said, "I just received news that a total of thirty-two branches in the south and north of our Camel Horse Gang were destroyed by unknown people. According to the situation at the scene, those people poisoned before attacking. That's why our brothers have no ability to resist, and there are almost no survivors. "
Everyone was secretly shocked when they heard this. The Camel Horse Gang was known as the greatest sect in the world, but it wasn't because of luck. The elders, protectors, and other officers in the main branch were all experts who stood in their own way, and there were nearly a thousand big and small branches. The strength of each branch was no weaker than an ordinary gang. In addition to the uniqueness of the Camel Horse Gang, the overall strength of each branch was no less than that of an ordinary gang. For a long time, no sect had dared to mess with the tiger whiskers of the Camel Horse Gang, but now, thirty-two branches had been taken by someone in a row. It seemed like those people were really aggressive, as if they would never be satisfied if they didn't get rid of the Camel Horse Gang.
Without stopping, Ren Dongming continued, "This is the first unfortunate news, and the second unfortunate news is... Not long ago, on the second day after Qin Er, Yee Zhenbiao, and Fann Wuji left the capital, the Dragon Lake Tiger Cave Alliance was besieged by the followers of heaven and earth. Luckily, Su Dahai made a prompt decision and led the group to escape to the headquarters of the Camel Horse Gang. Only then did the followers of Heaven and Earth retreat helplessly. Even so, more than half of the Dragon Lake Tiger Cave Alliance had suffered heavy casualties."
Hearing that the Heaven and Earth Sect had actually attacked the Dragon Lake Tiger Cave Alliance, Du Qi could not help but feel indignant. He said hatefully," It's this detestable Heaven and Earth Sect again? What other unfortunate news is there? Elder Ren, please tell me about it as well. "
