Eh? ng Qi blinked and looked at Chu Tianfeng in surprise. He actually defended her?!

ng Qi was hesitant for a mont, but she held back the argunts that already reached her lips and kept silent. A single word from Fentian Palace’s Young Master was better than her one hundred argunts.

ng Qi rembered that she was imprisoned in the dungeon for three months in her previous life. In the end, the Sect Leader let so people investigate before she was finally proven to be innocent.

In fact, the truth was easy to find out. When Chu Tianfeng and Lu Qingran were injured, she was at Qingfeng Valley. At that ti, an expert from Fentian Palace personally verified no trace of devil aura was found in ng Qi’s body. The most important thing was that her cultivation level was not fake. Whether it was sneaking out of Qingfeng Valley or hiding devil aura on her body, there was absolutely no way for ng Qi to deceive those experts.

So if it wasn’t for Demon Realm’s invasion at that ti, ng Qi would not be imprisoned for three months long. She didn’t resent Qingfeng Valley or the Sect Leader. But after restarting her life, she just didn’t want to waste those three months.

Chu Tianfeng’s words didn’t only calm ng Qi down but also shocked Lu Qingran. She didn’t seem to expect Chu Tianfeng to speak for ng Qi. She stumbled for a mont before murmured: “But….”

“Not her.” Chu Tianfeng shook his head firmly. He then looked up at ng Qi, who was still deep in thought.

Suddenly, ng Qi lowered her head and t Chu Tianfeng’s eyes. The young man’s face was cold as usual. Even with the sudden poison attack, his black-robed figure was still straight and firm. But when he looked at ng Qi’s eyes, an unknown emotion flashed through his eyes. He turned his gaze away quickly, seemingly was uncomfortable and reluctant to keep staring at her.

Lu Qingran hesitated for a mont before once again said, “But Tianfeng, your poison…”

Lu Qingran was the most talented disciple of Qingfeng Valley. When Chu Tianfeng was injured after protecting her, she did try to treat his wounds. Because his black robe acted as additional armor, the injuries themselves weren’t that bad. But the problem was the poison. Lu Qingran knew that this poison was far beyond her ability.

ng Qi had only joined the sect for half a year. Even if she was talented, there was no way she could cure a poison several ranks higher than her own cultivation level. Even Lu Qingran’s own master was probably cannot cure it…

“The one who was together with the devil beast that day was at least at the Golden Core stage. She couldn’t be your Junior Sister.”

“But …” Lu Qingran still wanted to retort.

“She can’t hide her cultivation from .” Chu Tianfeng guessed Lu Qingran’s doubt and briefly explained. His voice was still cold. Although he was defending ng Qi, he never again took a glance at her.

“Alright.” After a mont of silence, Lu Qingran finally got the clue and nodded. Chu Tianfeng kept speaking on ng Qi’s defense. It was clear that he wanted to protect her. Since Chu Tianfeng trusted ng Qi that much, it showed that this Junior Sister was really innocent. Lu Qingran believed in this powerful man who risked his own life to protect her.

She turned her head to look at ng Qi, sowhat ashad.

“Junior Sister ng, I’m sorry.” Lu Qingran apologized sincerely: “I was just too worried about Tianfeng. He was injured to protect . That devil beast was too strong. I was too anxious…”

“It’s okay.” ng Qi waved her hand and cut off Lu Qingran’s words, “Everything is clear now.”

To be honest, she was very wary about Lu Qingran’s legendary ‘heaven’s favorite daughter’ physique. In ng Qi’s previous life, it even indirectly caused her death. In this life, ng Qi has long made up her mind to cultivate herself as much as possible. After the danger has passed and she has enough strength, she would leave Qingfeng Valley and even leave the Eastern Realm.

ng Qi rembered her Master told her that he ca from a hidden sect in the Western Realm. Three Thousand Worlds were very large. Although the difference between Eastern Realm and Western Realm was only one world in writing, for ordinary cultivators like ng Qi, it was extrely difficult and dangerous to find people across multiple realms. But it’s okay. She could slowly take a journey to the west while improving her cultivation little by little.

ng Qi heard from her mysterious Master that Western Realm has a very powerful dical sect. In that sect, there was a very high-level dical cultivator who already reached the peak of the eighth rank. There was also a dical cultivator who has been perfecting the art of pill refining, whose motto was ‘anything in this world could be used as dicine. There were also countless other like-minded cultivators dedicating themselves to cure people all over the world.

Ever since then, ng Qi has always longed to go to the Western Realm. At that ti, her cultivation was on the verge of Golden Core formation. Her Master also promised that after she successfully ford her core, he would take her to the Western Realm and helped her to get admitted into a dical sect.

It’s a pity…

She shook her head.

For ng Qi, everything in front of her now was as transient and epheral as a fleeting cloud. Now that the doubt was explained clearly, she wouldn’t have to once again spend three months locked in the dungeon. And this heaven’s darling? Of course, she would like to minimize their interaction as much as possible.

“Junior Sister ng, I …”

“It’s alright.” ng Qi waved her hand, once again preventing Lu Qingran’s words. She then stood up and said to Chu Tianfeng: “Let’s go to the cold pond.” Without the cold pond’s help, ng Qi wasn’t sure whether she could completely eliminate the poison.

Chu Tianfeng nodded. He stood up in silence, walked behind ng Qi, and followed her out the door.

“Tianfeng.” Lu Qingran didn’t care that her body was still weak after several days unconscious and stood up. “Is there anything I can help?”

Lu Qingran was indeed beautiful. Even among the countless beauties in Three Thousand Worlds, she was still outstanding. Elegant eyebrows, cherry-colored lips, beautiful nose bridge. Her big eyes were as brilliant as the shining stars. Her petite face was delicate and pretty, like legendary won in ancient paintings. All in one, she was like an immortal fairy. Simply standing there with her pale and small face was enough to emit a fairy-like aura no mortals may have.

ng Qi strode past Lu Qingran without sparing her a glance, quickly followed by Chu Tianfeng. His expression was a little complicated. This proud and firm Young Master of Fentian Palace was, until a mont ago, an infatuated young man who kept guarding Lu Qingran for several days. But now, as if he had completely forgotten her, he walked past the girl without even took another look. Even when she called his na, he ignored her and quickly followed ng Qi, leaving the small courtyard behind.
