Feng Shao glanced at Lu Qingyuan and said calmly, “It seems that we can only admit defeat this time. It’s a pity that without the flames of Bifang Crane, the rebuilding of the pill refining pavilion and the weapon refining pavilion will have to be postponed for a while.”

Lu Qingyuan couldn’t help trembling.

Feng Shao noticed Lu Qingyuan’s reaction but turned around and walked back without saying anything. And Lu Qingyuan followed behind him, distraught.

After learning the news that the thief had fled far away, all the disciples cursed loudly.

They risked their lives to come to Bifang Plain and tried their best to get the Bifang Crane Flame, but they were cut off by a guy who came out of nowhere.

How could everyone not hate it? But at this time, everyone was wounded, and Feng Shao, who was the strongest, was even more so.

It was obviously impossible for them to recover the flame of Bifang Crane.

Everyone was extremely depressed, but there was nothing they could do.

Feng Shao found a secluded corner and began to treat his wounds. Although the shadow of Bifang Crane was just a shadow and its strength was much worse than the real Bifang Crane, it was not something he could easily deal with. In fact, everyone was extremely lucky to exit Bifang Crane intact.

One of the top ten forbidden places is indeed not a place of ease.

After treating his wounds, Feng Shao began to help others adjust their breath.

And Lu Qingyuan sat in a secluded corner, with mixed feelings and confusion.

Due to the huge consumption of everyone, they can only spend the night here temporarily today. Under Feng Shao’s arrangement, everyone started cooking and building tents. During the meal, everyone remembered that they had been cut off after working hard for the past few days, and cursed again.

Feng Shao was the calmest among the crowd. He just ate in silence without saying anything, and he seemed to be wandering in the sky. After eating, Feng Shao continued to meditate and adjust his breath. From the beginning to the end, Feng Shao was taciturn, obviously in a bad mood.

Everyone saw it and hated the man in black even more in their hearts.

At night, everyone got into the tent and prepared to sleep. Lu Qingyuan and Han Biyun were assigned the same tent and got in early. But as soon as she lay down, Han Biyun sneaked in and said, “Junior sister, Senior Brother Feng has something to ask you.”

Lu Qingyuan’s heart suddenly thumped, feeling faintly uneasy. But she didn’t say anything, just got out of the tent in silence.

According to the direction Han Biyun pointed, Lu Qingyuan found Feng Shao hundreds of meters away from the camp. At this moment, Feng Shao was facing away from him, looking at the silent wilderness.

Lu Qingyuan approached Feng Shao and was about to speak when Feng Shao said indifferently, “Junior Sister Lu, don’t you have anything to say to me?”

Lu Qingyuan’s heart suddenly beat violently. She forcibly suppressed the uneasiness in her heart, and said in a tone as calm as possible, “Junior sister doesn’t understand what Senior Brother Feng means.”

silence.

After a long time, Feng Shao said, “Junior Sister Lu, if my calculations are correct, you have been in the sect for seven years. During these seven years, how has the sect treated you?”

Lu Qingyuan replied, “Master treats me like a mother would a daughter, and the sect treats me with an ocean of kindness.”

Feng Shao nodded and said, “Since this is the case, if the sect needs it, are you willing to devote your life and soul to the sect, even giving your life?”

Lu Qingyuan didn’t know why, but she still replied, “It’s natural. The sect treats me well. It’s like home, and even if I’m smashed to pieces, I can’t repay it.”

Feng Shao sighed a long time and said in a low voice.

“Anyone can say good things, but how many people can really do it?”

Lu Qingyuan couldn’t help but ask, “What exactly is Brother Feng’s intention, you might as well speak up.”

Feng Shao turned around, looked at Lu Qingyuan with piercing eyes, and said, “Junior Sister Lu, let me ask you, if someone does something that is not good for the sect, what will you do?”

Just as Lu Qingyuan was about to answer, Feng Shao sneered and said, “Perhaps for Junior Sister Lu, the damage to the interests of the sect doesn’t need to be taken seriously at all, right? Maybe some people are far more important in Junior Sister Lu’s heart than the sect .”

Lu Qingyuan’s heart suddenly turned cold, but at this moment, she could only force herself to say calmly, “Junior sister doesn’t understand what Brother Feng means?”

“Don’t understand? I think you are trying to pretend that you don’t understand?” Feng Shao looked at Lu Qingyuan with a serious tone, “Where did the thief who snatched the flame of Bifang Crane come from, Junior Sister Lu really doesn’t know?”

This time, Lu Qingyuan’s whole heart became cold.

Since Feng Shao can say such a thing, sophistry is basically useless.

Lu Qingyuan was short of breath, at a loss, and didn’t know how to answer for a moment.

And Feng Shao said coldly, “Junior Sister Lu keeps saying that she is willing to contribute to the sect, but why is the flame of Bifang Crane stolen, yet you have to hide the identity of the person who snatched it? Do you know how important the flame of Bifang Crane is to the sect? Do you know? With the flames of Bifang Crane, we can really have our own pill refining pavilion and weapon refining pavilion, and all our sect’s disciples can use better pills and better quality weapons?”

“I didn’t!” Lu Qingyuan yelled, “I didn’t hide that person’s identity! I don’t even know who he is!”

“Lie!” Feng Shao said calmly, “Junior Sister Lu, you still refuse to tell the truth at this point, do you want me to explain the situation to the sect master and expel you from the sect?”

Lu Qingyuan couldn’t help being dumbfounded.
