Quick Wear: After Saving the Cannon Fodder, I Became a God

Chapter 436 The Little Beggar's Counterattack and Ascension 35

"flourishing."

Gu Qian looked at the two of them, with some unclear meaning in his eyes.

Xuan Lanyue's heart skipped a beat when she saw these two people appear behind the demon cultivator.

His uneasiness grew as he watched their eye contact.

What is Qianqian hiding from him?

What on earth did they do?

Demon cultivator, and Qianqian's seemingly unintentional but actually implicit warnings to him...

Qianqian, how much do you know?

Why would you not expose it and give him a chance?

"Yuanyuan Chiyan, they can't hold on any longer, go help them."

The two men nodded, flew forward, and the situation immediately improved.

"Senior Brother, aren't you going to help?" Gu Qian looked at Xuan Lanyue with an ambiguous smile.

"I, Qianqian, of course I will go to help, I, I'll go right away!"

Hearing his stuttering answer, Gu Qian sneered: "Senior Brother, which side are you helping?"

Xuan Lanyue's heart was filled with shock and a huge panic swept over him, making his hands and feet weak and his heart flustered.

Xuan Lanyue forced herself to calm down, "Qianqian, what do you mean by that? I will of course help the righteous cultivators to fight against the evil cultivators."

Gu Qian raised her eyebrows slightly, "Really? I hope so." As she spoke, she also joined the battle. With the magic in her hands, she was able to fight a tie with the demon cultivator who was obviously two realms higher than her.

Xuan Lanyue stood there in a daze for two seconds, then immediately joined the battle, standing no more than one meter away from Gu Qian.

The Sixth Elder was shocked when he saw Xuan Lanyue’s face.

Why is the Demon Lord here?

What is his relationship with this woman?

Why should we be enemies with them?

The Sixth Elder couldn't understand why, and the moment he saw Xuan Lanyue, he was delighted.

But then he saw that the demon cultivator he brought with him died under Xuan Lanyue's sword.

At that moment, he looked at the Demon Lord whom he respected in his heart with surprise and suspicion, and the word "Demon Lord" almost came out of his mouth.

But in the next second, the Sixth Elder, who didn't even have time to shout out, was annihilated in the red flames, without even a soul left.

When Xuan Lanyue saw this scene, the worry that had just been lifted up in her heart slowly subsided.

Gu Qian secretly curled her lips, thinking that Chi Yan had done a really good job this time, as well as Yuan Yuan. She would definitely give them some good things later.

With the help of Gu Qian and others, the demon cultivators were quickly defeated.

When only one was left, Yuanyuan stopped at Gu Qian's signal.

"City Lord, these demon cultivators don't seem to be attacking blindly and randomly. It seems that they are colluding with others and chose today to occupy the City Lord's Mansion in Nandu in order to control Nandu."

"Yes, that's right. This city lord also thinks that this demon cultivator would not be so reckless. Tell me, who did you conspire with?"

Li Junye was frozen at this point, and only came back to his senses when he heard the city lord's majestic voice.

No, I can't let him pull me out!

He pretended to be calm and said in his usual arrogant tone: "Oh, who else could it be? All the people who came to the banquet today are from famous families in my Nandu City. Only those few came today."

Li Junye pointed at Gu Qian and the others, "How could there be such a coincidence? It happened that she, a golden elixir, saved Li Minxiu, and she happened to come to Nandu today, the day when our Nandu was founded. Then, she naturally entered the City Lord's Mansion by virtue of her life-saving grace to our young city lord, opening a back door for the demon cultivator!"

The people around were whispering, looking at Gu Qian and the others with suspicion in their eyes.

When Gu Qian heard this, she just sneered and did not rush to explain.

The city lord looked at Gu Qian, then at Li Junye, and had some thoughts in his mind.

"Li Junye, don't slander me. How could Miss Gu be someone who colluded with the devil? Don't harbor hatred and abuse your power for personal gain just because you were defeated by her." Li Minxiu scolded.

"Hmph, our young city lord, don't be deceived and still speak for them!" Li Junye was not willing to be outdone.

"you……"

"Alright, Minxiu, Junye, stop arguing. Just ask this demon cultivator what exactly happened and you'll know everything."

At the city lord's signal, the guard at the side raised his sword and pointed it at the demon cultivator's chest.

The demon cultivator was trembling all over, and after his eyes moved around Li Junye, he seemed to be hesitating whether he should betray him or not.

Gu Qian thought for a moment, then stepped forward and said, "City Lord, most of the demon cultivators are weird, and if he falls into our hands, he will surely die. He might deliberately drag innocent people into the relationship to save the lives of the people behind him for the future."

"Oh, I think you are just feeling guilty! You are afraid that this demon cultivator will betray you, right?"

"Li...Junye, right? Why are you so excited? Could it be...that this demon cultivator has some relationship with you? Are you afraid that this demon cultivator will betray you, so you are anxious to shift the blame to us?"

"What are you talking about? I am the nephew of the city lord. How could I do something that would harm Nandu and the city lord's mansion?"

"Oh, who knows if you have any shameful thoughts in your mind?"

"I……"

"Okay, Junye, stop talking! What Gu Xiaoyou said is right, so do you have any good ideas?"

"Have you ever heard of the Mantra Pill, City Lord?"

"Of course I have heard of it, but... the elixir has been lost for a long time and is no longer available in the market."

"It just so happens that I, a humble junior, happen to have one. This thing is rare in the world nowadays, and I don't want to take it out casually. But now it concerns our reputation, so I have to take it out."

The city lord was shocked when he heard this.

Where did these people come from? How come they can even produce the Mantra Pill?

"Do you really have one?"

"Of course, there is no need for me to lie." Gu Qian took out a Mantra Pill from the space. "In fact, searching the soul directly would be more direct, but I don't think anyone in the City Lord's Mansion has learned this technique. If we were to do it, no one would trust us."

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone in the hall was shocked again.

Who are these people?

You have both the Mantra Pill and the Soul-Searching Technique?

Li Junye scoffed at this, "Oh, you guys believe her nonsense?"

"I see that there are doctors and alchemists among the guests at the banquet. They can test on the spot whether my elixir is genuine or not."

"Yes, several alchemists in the city are here, and the senior alchemist Master Ling is here too. Master Ling, have you ever seen the Manifestation Pill?"

"I was lucky enough to see one when I was young, but unfortunately, I only saw it from a distance."

At the city lord's signal, several alchemists couldn't wait to step forward and observe the legendary mantra pill.

After some inspection, the alchemists confirmed that this was indeed the True Word Pill.

So the demon cultivator was forced to swallow the pill.

"Tell me who ordered you to attack the City Lord's Mansion?"

Under the effect of the Mantra Pill, the demon cultivator trembled and told the truth: "It was... it was Young Master Li Junye who conspired with the Sixth Elder. He wanted to use us to get rid of the Lord and the Young Lord of Nandu City so that he could take the position of Lord."

"He took the poison pill that can dissipate the spiritual power of the cultivators from the Sixth Elder and put it in today's food."

Everyone was in an uproar, and Li Junye's father widened his eyes with disbelief on his face.

Li Junye's face turned pale, and he still wanted to argue: "He is talking nonsense, this pill must be fake!"

But no one believed him anymore.

The city lord shouted angrily: "Come here, take down Li Junye!"

Li Junye struggled and shouted: "Uncle, I was wrong, give me another chance!"

Li Junye's father saw this and spoke anxiously: "Second brother..."

"Brother, does this have anything to do with you?"
