Chapter 211: Fang Qingshan, the Master of Moyu Tower

The Eldest Senior Brother was stunned for a moment before asking, “How did you survive?”

Gu Xi did not really mind that this group of people left him to die. It was human nature to seek benefits and avoid harm. Moreover, they had never met each other before, so it was no exception for this group of people to leave him alone and run away.

However, it was impossible for him to smile at them.

Gu Xi did not expect that his Eldest Senior Brother would leave behind a few defensive magic tools before he left., but these defensive magic tools were useless against the powerful Insect Tide. Now, he could use them as an excuse.

Zhou Haozhe saw that Gu Xi was not dead. When he saw Fang Qinyu’s expression, his expression was terrifyingly gloomy. Why did the Winged Golden Black Bug not bite Gu Xi to death! They actually let him live?

He could not help but say, “Brother, let me ask you! Are you mute? Why aren’t you answering?”

Only then did Gu Xi casually say, “It’s all thanks to the defensive magical artifacts left behind by your Eldest Senior Brother that I was lucky enough to survive.”

Eldest Senior Brother felt that Gu Xi was not telling the truth. He knew those defensive magical artifacts. Even if they could resist the Insect Tide for a while, they were unable to repel it. There must be another reason for the Insect Tide to leave.

Seeing that the people of Moyu Tower still wanted to say something, Fang Qinyu was a little unhappy. “That’s enough! Are you done? If it weren’t for Gu Xi helping us to divert the Insect Tide, perhaps the Winged Golden Black Bug would have caught up by now. You guys would still be standing here!”

Huh? How did Gu Xi take all the credit again?

However, this sentence did make some sense. According to the speed of the Insect Tide earlier, even if they escaped in time, they might still be in danger of being caught up.

When they returned, they did not see any trace of the Winged Golden Black Bug, nor did they know where the Insect Tide had gone.

Fang Qinyu felt a little guilty and blamed herself. She said, “Follow me to the sect. My father is proficient in medicine, so he can examine you. Moreover, he has healing medicine to treat you.”

Gu Xi hesitated for a moment, but decided to go with her.

“Forget it, we can’t stay here for long. To prevent the Insect Tide from appearing again, we’d better leave quickly.”

It was unknown whether it was out of fear of Gu Xi, Fang Qinyu’s words, or other reasons, but Eldest Senior Brother actually did not say anything to refute it. He could only tacitly agree that Fang Qinyu would continue to bring Gu Xi along.

The people of Moyu Tower did not know that in the bushes behind Gu Xi, the ground was covered in a dense mass of darkness. Upon a closer look, countless Winged Golden Black Bugs fell to the ground, unconscious.

This terrifying scene was not noticed by anyone.

Zhou Haozhe looked at Fang Qinyu and Gu Xi’s intimate appearance. Clearly, he was somewhat unwilling. He could not help but say, “Eldest Senior Brother, are you really going to bring such an unknown person back to the sect? What if he is a spy sent by the enemy forces? Junior Sister Fang is inexperienced and easily deceived. We can’t let her do whatever she wants.”

This time, Eldest Senior Brother said indifferently, “Why don’t you persuade Junior Sister Fang and see if you can change her mind?”

Zhou Haozhe was instantly silent. If he could change her mind, he would not have come to look for Eldest Senior Brother. Fang Qinyu did not like him right now.

On the way back, the group did not encounter any demon beasts. They soon returned to Moyu Tower.

The mountain gate in front of them was shrouded in clouds and mist. The Immortal Qi was ethereal, like the exquisite ink paintings. The owner of Moyu Tower, Fang Qingshan, had long known that they were coming back, so he personally went to welcome them.

The middle-aged man in front of him had a calm aura, as if he was approachable. However, Gu Xi could feel an invisible pressure that was like a towering green mountain. It was not obvious. It seemed that the owner of Moyu Tower had a good cultivation base

The moment Fang Qinyu saw him, she immediately pounced on him and called out intimately, “Father!”

It turned out that she was Fang Qingshan’s daughter. Gu Xi immediately understood why the people of Moyu Tower doted on Fang Qinyu so much and were even worried that she would be hurt.

The expression on Fang Qingshan’s face became extremely gentle. His gaze swept past Gu Xi with an unnoticeable sharpness.

“Oh right, Father, let me tell you–”

Without waiting for Fang Qinyu to speak, as if he knew what she was going to say, Fang Qingshan interrupted, “Your Eldest Senior Brother’s message has already explained everything.”

After saying that, his gaze landed on Eldest Senior Brother. “You’ve done a good job with Li Junyan. You even led a group of disciples to complete the mission and successfully obtained the Violent Demon Bear’s inner core.”

Eldest Senior Brother half-knelt on the ground. “I’m sorry. I almost put Junior Sister Fang in danger. Please punish me, Master.”

Fang Qingshan shook his head. “I don’t blame you for this. It’s Qinyu who was too willful and insisted on following us. I’m sure you, Eldest Senior Brother, must have worked a lot on the way here. Your journey was tiring, and you almost encountered a swarm of insects. Lead the other disciples to rest first.”

“Yes, Master.”

After the others left, only Fang Qinyu and Gu Xi were left.

“You’re too ridiculous! Do you know how worried I was when I saw the news? If you really lost your life under the claws of the Demon Bear, how will I meet your mother in the afterlife a hundred years later?”

Fang Qingshan only had one daughter, Fang Qinyu. Due to the premature death of her biological mother, he felt guilty and doted on her endlessly. It could be said that if Fang Qinyu wanted the stars, he would fly to the Heavens to pick them for her.

“It seems that I have spoiled you so much that you are actually doing things your own way. For an outsider, you almost had an argument with your Senior Brothers!”

Seeing Fang Qingshan’s serious face and the fact that Fang Qinyu had never heard any harsh words from him since she was young, she felt very wronged.

“Father, you have gone too far! I did it for a reason. If mother knew that you blamed me for this, she would definitely not be happy in the afterlife!”
