Chapter 229 Honesty
Qi Xianqing specialized in medical treatment, but he was not good at poison skills.
Ling Li thought a lot. Suddenly, Su Li walking in the front stopped. Ling Li looked up and found that they were standing outside Yunjing City.
“Hierarch Ling, good bye.”
Su Li left without hesitation. Ling Li could only sigh and keep his doubts.
In the headquarters of the Yinmo Cult in the Moyin Street, Qi Xianqing sat on a precious chair made of scented rosewood. He looked impassive but was scared to come to the headquarters of the Yinmo Cult. He didn’t know the exact location because he was blindfolded and his cultivation was sealed. But he knew the place was not far from Yunjing City.
Qi Xianqing looked at the scented tea in his hands and only felt bored and anxious. Could his apprentice and he leave safely knowing the secret?
Tan Taiyu was more relaxed compared with Qi Xianqing. Perhaps he was lack of knowledge, or the previous behavior of Ling Li was convincing. Tan Taiyu only carried a long wooden box and looked around, but he failed to find the signs of mechanisms.
This place looked more like a slightly luxurious mansion than the headquarters of the Yinmo Cult. Tantai Yu also wanted to go outside, but he was stopped.
Ling Li came in soon. He wore a jade-bone mask and said with a smile, “Sorry to keep you waiting for a long time. I asked you to stay because I still have several questions. If you cooperate with us, someone will send you back.”
Otherwise…
Qi Xianqing took a deep breath but didn’t speak out his thought. He nodded and said, “I believe Hierarch Ling is trustworthy. I will answer your questions.”
Ling Li felt it was interesting in his heart. Qi Xianqing actually flattered him, which meant he was really scared.
However, due to the relationship between Qi Xianqing and Su Li, Ling Li would not kill him.
Thinking of this, Ling Li turned his head and glanced at Tan Taiyu, who was coming to sit. He asked, “Mr. Qi, what is your relationship with Dongfang Xiao?”
Qi Xianqing knew he would ask this question. He had ended the relationship with Dongfang Xiao, and there was no need to cover up the fact. He smiled bitterly and told the truth.
“I had an agreement with the Dongfang Family in previous years. I taught Dongfang Xiao until he became an adult. Meanwhile, the Dongfang Family did something for me. There were mutual benefits. However, I found Dongfang Xiao was an ungrateful person. He never wanted to help me. So, I also tricked them. In the following decade, I never went to Yunjing City again. What I said is true. If I hide something, let the thunder punish me! Are you satisfied with my answer, Hierarch Ling?”
Qi Xianqing stared at Ling Li.
Ling Li nodded slightly, but he felt amused. Qi Xianqing was really crafty. Once he suffered losses, he would immediately cheat and run away.
“What is your relationship with Tianji Country, Mr. Qi?”
“I have cooperative relationship with the Tantai Family like that with the Dongfang Family, but Tantai Family is more credible than the Dongfang Family.”
Ling Li squinted slightly in the mask. Qi Xianqing’s words might not be true. He might lie about some questions and deliberately ignore many details. But Ling Li had known what he wanted, so he was satisfied.
“Mr. Qi is really judicious, and I still have the last question.”
Ling Li praised Qi Xianqing. Then he stared at the latter and said in a slow tone, “I heard that Mr. Qi is unparalleled in the medical circle and is the best in the martial arts circle. Whose medical skill is better, Mr. Li’s or yours?”
Qi Xianqing was shocked and immediately shook his head with a wry smile. He said, “Hierarch, this is a difficult question. I just arrived in Yunjing City. I heard Mr. Li’s name in the Auction Fair and saw him in indigo clothes for the first time. How can I tell you who is better without knowing Mr. Li’s medical skill?”
“Mr. Qi, is that true?” Ling Li lifted his eyebrows slightly and asked. He wanted to confirm it again.

Qi Xianqing looked serious. He nodded and spoke with confidence, “What I said is true. I do not dare to lie! If you have Mr. Li’s address, you might as well go with me to meet Mr. Li.”
“Fine, I believe you.”
Ling Li shook his head. Mr. Li was protected by a senior of the longevity realm. He didn’t dare to visit Mr. Li. Furthermore, the reaction of Qi Xianqing was natural either when he saw Mr. Li or at present. It seemed that he didn’t lie.
After saying goodbye to Qi Xianqing and Tantai Yu, Ling Li was lost in deep thought.
Since Qi Xianqing told the truth, he had good reason to doubt that Su Li’s poison skills were taught by Mr. Li. He heard of Su Li’s early experience. Her name was given by herself. But her name might be given by Mr. Li.
Why were they so close?
Thinking of this, Ling Li was furious. A lump seemed to rise in his throat. He felt unpleasant.
“Ling Mo!”
“Yes, Master.”
Ling Mo dressed in black and gold came in from outside. He said calmly, “Everything is ready.”
“I’ll take actions by myself!”
Seeing Ling Li go away without hesitation, Ling Mo was confused. He thought the Master was a little weird today.
Beside the official road outside the city, Ling Liuyi and the subordinates hid in the bush. They looked cold-blooded and ruthless. Their looks were almost the same as Ling Mo’s. Suddenly, Ling Liuyi heard a noise behind him. He quickly turned back and saw Ling Mo. Then Ling Liuyi immediately pretended to be very scared and said,
“Bro, you just burst in and almost scared me to death. You must compensate me!”
The subordinates around him wanted to laugh but didn’t dare to do so. Ling Liuyi was one of the deputies of the Shalou Cult. Although he joined the cult late, he was born to be a killer. So, his promotion was extremely fast.
Ling Liuyi admired Ling Mo most. He liked imitating Ling Mo’s words and deeds when there was nothing to do, but he couldn’t keep a straight face. His funny personality was easily exposed. He was a blunderer at ordinary times except when he killed someone. His personality made him popular among his subordinates.
Ling Mo curled his lips and moved. Then Ling Liuyi saw the jade-bone mask. He was so scared that he almost bit his tongue. He said unhappily, “Childe!”
Ling Li felt better when seeing Ling Liuyi. He immediately laughed and said, “Liuyi, you still like joking as before. Do you remember the rules of the cult?”
“Yes.”
Ling Liuyi was upset. At other times, he could play a prank on Ling Mo, but now he was on a mission and should be serious. Otherwise, he would be punished.
“Good. Take the punishment when the mission is done.”
“Yes.” Ling Liuyi responded in a feeble voice.
Ling Li suddenly became serious. Ling Liuyi heard something. He lowered his body and looked around. He quickly calmed down and forgot the punishment.
On the dark official road, a group of people appeared in the distance. Wei Youran and Wei Zhenzhen were walking in the front.
They finally arrived here.
Ling Liuyi’s eyes flashed with anger. “How dare you annoy the childe! I will punish you.”
