The three old monks stepped back far away, and one of them even staggered, almost unable to stand firm.
"The Thirteen Protectors' Horizontal Golden Bell Shield!" The leading old monk frowned tightly, gritted his teeth at Li Qianqiu, and said in a deep voice, "What exactly is your relationship with Great General Helian Tiehua?"
"General Helian is my master," Li Qianqiu replied truthfully, not hiding anything.
"Young master!" A man beside him hurried to stop him but was already too late. Ever since he knew these people were from Brahmanism, he had been trying to conceal his side's identity. As a result, Li Qianqiu directly revealed it. Now, if they ca for revenge, they would definitely look for Helian Tiehua.
Logically speaking, the Seven Steering Committees of the Hong Alliance wouldn't fear a Brahmanism. But the key issue was that a great battle between the Seven Steering Committees and the Twelve Green Halls was about to break out. The Hong Alliance was already at a disadvantage, and making another enemy would be a huge problem for them.
"So you're a disciple of General Helian!" The old monk's face turned colder as he gave Li Qianqiu a deep look, saying in a low voice, "No wonder you don't take our Brahmanism seriously. With General Helian backing you up, who else in this world do you hold in regard?"
"The master has misunderstood," Li Qianqiu calmly said, "I have no intention of disrespecting you all. The Ye brothers are my friends, and I'm just here to help them. If I have offended you, please forgive ."
"Enough nonsense!" The old monk gripped his teeth, saying deeply, "A disciple of Helian Tiehua, huh, indeed capable. Today we have suffered, but Brahmanism will surely settle this account soday."
The old monk finished speaking, waved a hand, and shouted, "Let's go!"
The remaining monks imdiately followed the old monk to leave the abandoned factory area. Every one of them looked at Li Qianqiu with deep hostility, indicating that they had also beco enemies with him this ti.
Li Qianqiu remained calm, watching the monks walk away, then turned to Ye Qing and said, "Ye brothers, what is going on here?"
Li Qianqiu had just heard Li Lianshan say that Ye Qing was surrounded here, so he ca to help Ye Qing right away, not knowing what had happened. He didn't know who was right or wrong in this matter, but he believed in Ye Qing, so he ca directly to help him.
Ye Qing sighed and recounted the grievances between himself and the monks. Of course, he didn't ntion that Broom Star understood Buddhist texts, only that these people had kidnapped many children, including those from the orphanage, and so he had a conflict with them.
After listening to Ye Qing, Li Qianqiu couldn't help but frown and said, "I never expected these monks to do such things. Kidnapping children and killing at will, how could this be the actions of monks? No wonder you're so furious, Ye brothers, if it were , I wouldn't let them go either."
"I will definitely settle accounts with them regarding this matter. However, the most troubleso thing now is that these monks will definitely co to Shenchuan City to cause trouble later." Ye Qing said, "I can't stay in Shenchuan City for long, and there are many brothers here. If these monks really start a massacre in Shenchuan City, then that would be troubleso."
"You don't need to worry about that," Li Qianqiu said, "I will stay in Shenchuan City during this ti. If those monks co to make trouble, I will help you to drive them out, Ye brothers."
"Young master," the person next to him tugged on Li Qianqiu's clothes and whispered, "You have more important things to do in Shenchuan City, and there's not enough ti to mind other people's business."
"How is this other people's business?" Li Qianqiu said, "Ye brothers are my friends; his business is naturally mine. Of course, I should take care of it!"
"But..." The person wanted to speak again, but Li Qianqiu waved him off, saying, "You don't need to say any more. Master ordered to co to Shenchuan City, and he said long ago that everything here is for to decide. Since I make the decision, it's settled this way. If you have any questions, you can go and tell Master!"
The person imdiately shut his mouth, not daring to go to Helian Tiehua to complain about Li Qianqiu.
Ye Qing didn't expect Li Qianqiu to be so righteous, and he felt even more grateful, saying, "Li brothers, how could I trouble you with this matter?"
"What trouble is there? Since I'm in Shenchuan City, these matters are just a lift of a hand for ." Li Qianqiu patted Ye Qing's shoulder and said, "Alright, Ye brothers, you've been busy for so long tonight, you must be tired. Co on, let's go back first and talk later!"
Ye Qing followed Li Qianqiu and their car back to Shenchuan City. Li Lianshan's car was driven by Li Qianqiu's n, following behind without any hindrance, returning to Shenchuan City safely.
In Shenchuan City, Zhao Chengshuang had already gathered his n and was anxiously waiting. Fortunately, Ye Qing ca back, otherwise, he might have brought people to rescue him.
Seeing Ye Qing and Li Lianshan return, Zhao Chengshuang was overjoyed and hurriedly welcod them in. As for Li Qianqiu, who ca along with Ye Qing, he didn't know him, but since he was with Ye Qing, he naturally was one of his own, so he didn't ask further.
Li Lianshan was quite injured, but with the dicine effect of Ziyu Chenxiang Pill in his system, it was not a major issue. With a few days' rest, he would be fine. So, as soon as they entered, Zhao Chengshuang took him to rest, leaving only Ye Qing and a few others in the living room.
Once seated, Li Qianqiu smiled directly and said, "By the way, Ye brothers, after the matchmaking event at the Xihang Shen Family Manor a few days ago, why did you leave without saying a word? Moreover, you went to the territory of King Wan Yan of Northern Desert. What was all that about?"
Li Qianqiu was good to Ye Qing, so Ye Qing didn't hide anything from him and directly recounted how Handso Fatty Wang tricked him away with news about Huangfu Ziyu. As for the matters concerning Dragon Blood Wood and Gold Silk Armor, he also didn't hide from Li Qianqiu, as these events had already been widely known. However, he didn't ntion the connection between the Gold Silk Armor and Guiguzi, not because he didn't trust Li Qianqiu, but because he needed to be cautious of the Seven Steering Committees of the Hong Alliance.
Li Qianqiu belonged to the Seven Steering Committees and had the Defeated Army's Command, undoubtedly a key figure like Lu Zian for them. Lu Zian, due to his Seven Kills Fate, was fully trained by the Twelve Green Halls, even serving as a direct disciple of Heavenly Master Lin Xuan Yue. Li Qianqiu's situation was likely similar to Lu Zian's, being a significant person within the Seven Steering Committees.
The Seven Steering Committees and the Twelve Green Halls have always been competing for the Heaven Earth Man Three Gates, a historical legacy over centuries. There's no doubt that both the Seven Steering Committees and the Twelve Green Halls are very concerned about Guiguzi's affairs. If they found out about the connection between the Gold Silk Armor and Guiguzi, it would be catastrophic. The world was already in chaos, and if those groups got involved with the Gold Silk Armor matter, things would beco even more complicated.
Ye Qing trusted Li Qianqiu but not the Seven Steering Committees. Therefore, he chose to keep the Gold Silk Armor matter a secret from Li Qianqiu.
Li Qianqiu had already heard about the Dragon Blood Wood and Gold Silk Armor, and he himself didn't know their specific functions or why Prince Wan Yan valued them so highly. Since Ye Qing didn't bring it up, he didn't inquire further.
"So you left the Shen Family Manor because of Miss Huangfu," Li Qianqiu sighed softly and said, "You truly have deep feelings for Miss Huangfu, Ye brothers."
Hearing this, Ye Qing felt a pang of emotion in his heart and chuckled wryly, saying, "Zi Yu and I have pledged our lifelong commitnt long ago; she is my wife. When she's in danger, how could I possibly sit by and do nothing? It's a pity that my skills are inadequate. Despite Zi Yu's disappearance for so long, I still haven't got a single piece of information about her, let alone rescued her. Alas, I wonder how Zi Yu is doing now!"
Li Qianqiu stared at Ye Qing for a while and suddenly said, "Miss Huangfu is doing well now..."
Li Qianqiu's words were cut off halfway, and the expressions of the three people beside him changed. One imdiately grabbed Li Qianqiu's clothing while another chuckled awkwardly, saying, "By the way, Mr. Ye, I heard that Wan Yan's Dragon Blood Wood and Gold Silk Armor have been stolen, and it was by you. Is this true? Are the Dragon Blood Wood and Gold Silk Armor now in your possession, Mr. Ye?"
Ye Qing slightly frowned. Although Li Qianqiu's words were only half-spoken, he heard it clearly; Li Qianqiu definitely wanted to say sothing about Huangfu Ziyu. Moreover, he previously ntioned that Huangfu Ziyu was doing well now — what did that an? How did he know about Huangfu Ziyu's current condition? Could it be that he had information about Huangfu Ziyu?
Seeing Ye Qing's silence while looking at Li Qianqiu, the person beside him got a little anxious and hurried to change the subject, saying, "It seems that the Gold Silk Armor and Dragon Blood Wood are indeed in Mr. Ye's possession. Could you let our young master have a look at them? The na of Dragon Blood Wood has been passed down for many years, and we have only heard of it, never seen it. I wonder if we could have a chance to see it today."
The three people beside him kept interrupting, clearly trying to shift the topic away from it so Ye Qing wouldn't focus on it. This made Ye Qing all the more suspicious. He could tell these people definitely knew sothing, and it was related to Huangfu Ziyu. But what exactly were they hiding about these matters?
Li Qianqiu also stopped speaking, seemingly feeling he misspoke and thus did not say anything further.
