Chapter 2249: Call Me Sect Leader
Ning Shu had expected that killing Qi Yi came with follow-up issues. After all, Qi Yi had been in the Sacred Demonic Cult for so many years, his murder was difficult to explain.
But Ning Shu still chose to kill Qi Yi without hesitation.
The protagonist was a creature with extremely tenacious vitality. Had Ning Shu missed this opportunity, she didn’t know what the consequences would be.
If she hadn’t killed Qi Yi just now, he would have eventually realized her malicious intentions and fled. Once Qi Yi resumed his real identity, there was no doubt he would have led a large number of renowned righteous sects to suppress the Sacred Demonic Cult, as in the original storyline.
“Brother…” Ning Shu said.
Ye Hua responded indifferently, “Call me sect leader.”
Ning Shu: …
“Sect leader, Qi Yi was a spy. He tried to trick me into finding the ‘Guiyuan Sacred Martial Arts’ for him.” Ning Shu said.
Ye Hua’s eyebrows rose but he said nothing.
“What a joke! Qi Yi was brought in by the former sect leader, how could he possibly be a spy?” The old devil said with a trembling face, his sunken eyes boring into Ning Shu.
“I have proof. Brother… sect leader, I require a brush, ink, paper, and an inkstone.” Ning Shu said.
Ye Hua waved his hand, and a maid placed the items in front of Ning Shu.
Ning Shu took the brush and began to write. “Obtained the item, waiting for opportunity to leave.”
Ning Shu purposefully made her handwriting very messy. After all, Ning Shu’s handwriting was very different from Qi Yi’s.
Ning Shu asked the maid to bring Qi Yi’s pigeon over.
Ning Shu placed the note in a small bamboo tube, attached it to the pigeon’s leg, and lifted the pigeon into the air.
The pigeon flapped its wings and flew away.
After the pigeon disappeared from sight, Ning Shu said to Ye Hua, “There should be a reply after a while.”
Ye Hua waved his hand and the maid came over to clear the table. He looked at Ning Shu and said, “This sect leader remembers that you were pleased with Qi Yi and had previously harbored admiration for him. How could you bear to kill him?”
“Actually, you didn’t have to kill him. We could’ve used him to catch bigger fish,” Ye Hua said.
Ning Shu: Sigh…
When it came to creatures like the protagonist, if they weren’t eradicated, they’d always find a way to come back and bite you in the ass.
“If you liked Qi Yi, you could have imprisoned him. Why did you feel the need to kill him?” Ye Hua stood up.
There were fluttering clouds embroidered with golden thread on the cuffs of Ye Hua’s ink-black clothes. As Ye Hua walked, they glimmered.
Ning Shu wasn’t paying attention to Ye Hua’s clothes. When she heard what Ye Hua said, she was appalled. He couldn’t be talking about that kind of imprisonment, right?
It should be mentioned, Qi Yi was the type of man who only shed blood and no tears, someone who would rather be killed than humiliated. He was the future martial alliance leader that would unite the martial world.
Had Qi Yi been imprisoned, the consequences of his escape would be unimaginable. It was safest to kill him, not to mention the action aligned with the original host’s wishes.
Orthodox? Unorthodox? It meant nothing. Human hearts were the source of good and evil, yet some people killed others in the name of righteousness for the so-called sake of the ‘greater good’.
People who claimed to be of the orthodox sects would also deceive and swindle, so what difference was there between them and the demonic sect?
Hadn’t Qi Yi been doing precisely just that to Hong Ye? What part of his deception was noble?
“Didn’t you admire Qi Yi, that jade-faced young master, greatly?” Ye Hua approached Ning Shu and asked lightly.
Ning Shu curled her lips and said, “But he didn’t like me, so I killed him in anger.”
Ye Hua: …
Ye Hua turned his head and said to the old devil, “We will present Elder Gui with an explanation regarding this matter. If Qi Yi really was a spy, Elder Gui, you had better find another apprentice.”
“Yes, Sect Leader.”
Ning Shu left the hall and went on her way to the courtyard of the poison doctor, Elder Shen.
