Quick Wear: Cousin, Come to the Bowl Quickly

Chapter 185: The Sword Cultivator Cousin in the Immortal Cultivation Novel (47)

Apparently, he was not the only one who had concerns. After the initial anger, Lin Xi quickly calmed down. She first glanced at Gu Hongzi and several elders sitting on the seat without leaving a trace, and found that they did not show much attention to Ji Xiaowu. She couldn't help but feel a sinking feeling in her heart.

Judging from his current posture, this person must have recovered from his injuries and used some unknown method to hide his identity. This is why he can act so calm in front of several powerful bosses with profound cultivation.

Lin Xi thought of the description of him in the original plot, saying that although he had just ascended the throne of the Demon Lord not long ago, because he had inherited it from the old Demon Lord, his cultivation was extremely unfathomable. Although he was completely unprepared for the civil strife among the demons, he single-handedly dealt a heavy blow to the rebels led by the Demon Clan's Left Protector.

Even after he was severely injured in a surprise attack and was rescued by the heroine and others when he was at his weakest, Wei Qingchuan, who had the highest cultivation level among the group, did not see his true strength. It was not until the end of the Fairy Sword Conference that his identity was revealed and everyone in the Lingyun Sword Sect knew his true identity.

In the original plot, Ji Xiaowu was able to hide the truth from everyone even after spending five years in Lingyun Sword Sect, an immortal sect that naturally suppresses evil spirits. Not to mention that he and Luo Qinghe have been practicing in the secret realm full of rare treasures for so long now. I'm afraid his strength is even more terrifying than before.

This can be seen from the fact that Gu Hongzi and others can still sit calmly on their chairs, because their strength is far inferior to Ji Xiaowu and they cannot see through his cultivation and identity, so now everyone can sit together in harmony.

Otherwise, if they knew that the seemingly harmless young man in front of them was the legendary bloodthirsty and murderous Demon Lord Ji Xiaowu, I'm afraid all the sword practitioners in the entire Lingyun Sword Sect would follow one after another and sacrifice their lives for the cause.

Lin Xi had come here with the intention of changing the situation of the Lingyun Sword Sect being massacred, so naturally he didn't want to let this happen in advance. Therefore, even though he was annoyed that this man was haunting Luo Qinghe, he didn't dare to expose his identity in public.

But when she thought about how he came up to her like a lunatic and wanted to kill her that night, she naturally didn't want to swallow her anger. So when she saw Ji Xiaowu's eyes full of threats, but she was afraid to act out of concern for Luo Qinghe, she suddenly had an idea.

"Senior Sister... I... I'm fine." Lin Xi looked at Luo Qinghe in front of her with a concerned look on her face. With a pale face, he leaned towards her with some fear.

Luo Qinghe just sighed that the little girl who had weakly pulled her sleeve had changed into a different person, but the next moment the person in front of her suddenly came towards her with red eyes and tears in her eyes.

Her heart softened, and she reached out to support her, only to find that Lin Xi's body was shaking constantly. She was startled and asked hurriedly, "Are you okay? Then why are you shaking?"

"I... I... I'm just a little scared." Lin Xi seemed to want to act less timid, but her eyes kept looking at Ji Xiaowu who was sitting behind Luo Qinghe. Then, as if frightened, she suddenly shrank into Luo Qinghe's arms and spoke in a trembling voice, "That person, that person looked at me in a scary way, just like, just like the person who wanted to kill me in the barrier."

"What?!" Luo Qinghe was shocked when she heard that. She quickly turned her head to look at Ji Xiaowu behind her, but saw him blinking at her innocently. She immediately frowned, patted Lin Xi in her arms, and comforted her, "That's my friend. He has saved me many times. Don't be afraid."

At this point, she seemed to suddenly remember something, and hurriedly grabbed Lin Xi's shoulders, looked her up and down, and asked in a gentle voice: "I wanted to go in and save you, but I ended up making things worse and almost got myself involved. What happened to you at that time?"

“Junior Sister Lin was nearly killed by the demons in that barrier. Although Senior Brother and I arrived in time, her back was broken, her legs were crippled, and she lost half her life.” Yue Qian saw that Lin Xi looked very scared, and stared at Ji Xiaowu with some suspicion, although he had a constant smile on his face.

"What?! Are you fine now?" Luo Qinghe exclaimed and looked at her legs again.

"Thanks to the miraculous healing power of Fifth Uncle, I am now fine." Lin Xi still looked frightened and seemed to be hesitant to speak.

"Thank goodness, then why did you..." Luo Qinghe looked at her, somewhat puzzled.

"The man who wanted to kill me was wearing a black outfit like this." Lin Xi seemed to have finally mustered up the courage and pointed at Ji Xiaowu.

"This..." Luo Qinghe's heart trembled when he heard the words, and he looked in the direction of her finger at Ji Xiaowu, whose expression was a little stiff.

Ji Xiaowu still had a smile on his face, but he had already killed Lin Xi a thousand times in his heart. He thought that this woman looking at him angrily like that must be a brainless person, and might even expose his identity regardless of the consequences. Then he would just have to deny it.

Anyway, none of these people could see through his cultivation and identity, and he was sure that none of them had seen his true face. Then how could he make these people believe that a harmless person like him could be the notorious Demon Lord based on her words alone?

He could even turn the tables and say that it was Lin Xi who slandered him. Then he could pretend to be magnanimous and say that he didn't want to care about it. Maybe he could even add a little guilt to Luo Qinghe's heart and make her like him even more.

Of course, if Lin Xi was afraid of him and dared not reveal his true identity, it would be even better. Then, considering that she was sensible, he would give her a quick death when he dealt with her secretly. As for letting Lin Xi go, he had never thought about it. From the moment Lin Xi knew his true identity, she was already dead in his eyes.

But he never expected that neither of the two results he imagined would occur. Lin Xi neither directly exposed his identity nor chose to remain silent because of fear of him. Instead, she acted as if she was afraid of him and said some ambiguous words, which directly drew everyone's attention back to herself.

He was furious, but when he met Luo Qinghe's gaze, he forcibly endured it, shook his head in confusion, and said a little aggrievedly: "I have never seen this girl, how could I kill you? As for this black dress, I am just an independent cultivator, not as wealthy as your sect, so I can take whatever benefits I can get when I am out there."

Seeing him calmly and clearly defending himself, Luo Qinghe's doubts disappeared for the most part. She turned to Lin Xi and said, "I can testify for him. He and I were in that secret realm for five years, and he was always wearing black clothes."

Lin Xi sneered in her heart and was about to continue speaking when she heard Wei Qingchuan's cold voice behind her, "If it is as Fellow Daoist Qi said, you and Qinghe first met in that barrier, then could you please tell me why you appeared there?"
