Thank you, 'Low Eyebrow Tender Affection and High Headed Heroism' for your continuous support.
The young girl, as a disciple of the Qingyun Sect, had always been pampered in the sect due to her naturally charming appearance. Every inner sect disciple, who usually looked down on others, would fawn over her. If she encountered any difficulties or dangers, they would vie to help her.
However, the unremarkable outer sect disciple she had just seen actually ignored her and walked away.
This made the girl, who had been spoiled since joining the sect and had never been neglected, furious.
If it weren't for the mission that led her to unexpectedly encounter the Tianquan Sect and then be pursued, she would definitely make that person pay for his rudeness, cutting him a few times to relieve her frustration.
But she naturally didn't have the time for that now. After seeing Ding Qi disappear, the girl, feeling frustrated, could only grit her teeth and look for a way to escape again.
However, when she saw a nearby carriage and horse shop, she immediately had an idea and ran over. Ignoring the owner's objections, she immediately saddled the strongest black horse and rode away. The group of Tianquan Sect disciples who were chasing her looked at each other and then led the remaining horses, whipping them to chase after her.
Ding Qi, of course, didn't know what the girl was thinking. He was standing on the second floor of the tavern, coldly watching the chase below, with no intention of helping.
Ding Qi narrowed his eyes, watching the Qingyun Sect female disciple and the black-clothed men chasing her. He only sighed deeply when the group disappeared in the distance.
"It seems I can't wear this outfit anymore!" Standing on the tavern floor, Ding Qi looked at his attire and reminded himself.
The incident he had just witnessed was clearly a conflict between the Qingyun Sect and the Tianquan Sect, two major sects in the martial world. He had no intention of getting involved in such matters. If he were to go to Liangcheng wearing the Qingyun Sect outer sect disciple's outfit, he would only invite similar trouble due to the conflict between the two sects.
Ding Qi was an outer sect disciple of the Qingyun Sect and had some connection with it. However, the relationship between an outer sect disciple and the Qingyun Sect was tenuous, and there was no need for him to get entangled in it.
If he were to get involved in the incident he had just seen, it would turn into a life-and-death struggle. Although he had the innate martial arts, he believed that the black-clothed men of the Tianquan Sect would not be his match, the Qingyun Sect and the Tianquan Sect were among the top sects in Jingzhou. Even if his three techniques were highly skilled, getting involved in the feud between two major sects would bring endless trouble and endless aftereffects.
The Qingyun Sect female disciple he had seen earlier, although the most beautiful girl he had ever seen, would not make him lose his composure and play the hero to save the beauty, dragging himself into unnecessary trouble.
Ding Qi's mind was filled with various thoughts, and he was about to go downstairs.
Since he had been on the second floor of the tavern, Ding Qi had been there for some time. Seeing the waiter about to approach, he waved his hand, indicating that he would leave soon. The waiter, who had thought he would have a customer, had his smile freeze and muttered a few words before walking away helplessly.
"Why are you in such a hurry to leave? I saw what happened earlier. I think your martial arts are quite good, and as an outer sect disciple, it is your duty to help. Watching idly like that, I don't think it's right."
Just as Ding Qi was about to go downstairs, a sweet and pleasant female voice, like a yellow oriole, sounded in his ear. The voice was sweet and pleasant, making people feel very comfortable.
Ding Qi, who was about to go downstairs, was slightly stunned. He quickly realized that the owner of the pleasant voice was speaking to him.
Ding Qi couldn't help but stop and turn to look at the owner of the voice.
However, when he saw the owner of the voice, he couldn't help but take a deep breath.
The Qingyun Sect girl he had seen earlier, Ding Qi had thought was already the most beautiful in the world. But compared to the girl in front of him, she was still a few steps behind. The girl in front of him was about fourteen or fifteen years old, with skin as smooth as snow, a small nose, and a beautiful face. Her eyes were as clear as water, and a string of silver bells hung by her ear, making her look even more charming and adorable. Looking at this girl, one had the impulse to hold one's breath and not look away.
Ding Qi had been so focused on the events below that he hadn't noticed this beautiful girl on the second floor until she called him.
Looking at the silver-bell girl who had called him, Ding Qi quickly recovered from his daze.
Then he thought of something and frowned slightly.
The scene of him not helping earlier had clearly been seen by the girl in front of him. Even the use of the Wind Riding Technique had been seen by her.
When Ding Qi left, he only used less than half the power of the Wind Riding Technique, which wasn't too shocking. The strength he displayed was only at the level of an ordinary martial artist. The girl in front of him had deduced that Ding Qi was a martial artist with basic lightness skills based on this.
Although it wasn't Ding Qi's intention to reveal his martial arts skills, he knew that the level he had shown wouldn't cause any trouble.
What Ding Qi was concerned about now was something else.
"Miss, are you... a Qingyun Sect disciple?"
"Exactly." The beautiful girl replied crisply.
Hearing the girl's affirmative answer, Ding Qi's face turned ugly.
"Just now... hehe... Since you are a Qingyun Sect disciple, why didn't you...?"
Ding Qi laughed and tried to brush it off, then threw the question back to the charming girl in front of him.
The girl clearly understood that Ding Qi was referring to her not helping her fellow sect member who was being chased.
"This... forget it. Anyway, it's already the last part of the plan with Sister Yue. The sect's plan is already impossible to fail, so it's fine to tell you some of it." The girl hesitated for a moment, then muttered after some thought.
The girl's subsequent words finally made Ding Qi understand why she didn't help the Qingyun Sect girl who was being chased.
After the silver-bell girl finished speaking, Ding Qi's face finally showed understanding.
Looking at the silver-bell girl not far away, Ding Qi was silent for a moment, then said, "In other words, what I saw just now was a Qingyun Sect plan to lure the tiger away from the mountain!"
