Chapter 1711: Chapter 1711: Also Considered Escaping a Calamity
Now, they had come to tell them that the pill-refining furnace had exploded, which could only mean that the antidote being refined was destroyed, and An Jiuyue had also been injured.
Such an incident would leave no one content or willing to let it go, especially when those on the other side were all powerful and influential!
Brother Zhen rested one hand on his forehead, utterly at a loss in the face of what had just occurred. Was this an act meant to annihilate the entire Qingyun Sect? Gu Qingyu had really done a number this time.
“Brother, what should we do now? Will Gu Qingyu’s actions implicate our sect?” One of the brothers spoke up, asking.
What could Brother Zhen say? It was inevitable that the Qingyun Sect would be implicated, but it was a matter of how exactly they would be implicated. Maybe there was still a way out for the Qingyun Sect?
“Is Gu Qingyu dead?”
“Dead, I saw it with my own eyes,” Senior Brother Sun said.
When Qian Jiyun killed Gu Qingyu, he had turned to look back once. By now, he was absolutely certain that she was thoroughly dead.
“Dead.”
Brother Zhen’s face darkened as he let out a deep sigh.
“Since she’s dead, at least the Qingyun Sect won’t be headed to destruction,” he said gravely.
“Why would you say that, brother?”
Xuanyuan Zimo also looked extremely solemn, hearing him say this, she asked.
She hadn’t anticipated Gu Qingyu’s matter to escalate to this extent. She had also been keeping a close watch on Gu Qingyu these past few days, thinking that if Gu Qingyu vented her anger on her, she wouldn’t go outside and cause trouble.
She certainly hadn’t expected Gu Qingyu to be so daring.
“At least we are not dead yet,” Brother Zhen closed his eyes for a moment and said calmly.
Indeed, as long as Su Tang hadn’t ordered any action against them, it meant there was still room for things to turn around. Now that Gu Qingyu, a woman who was exceptional at causing trouble, was gone, as long as they acted invisible and didn’t provoke that group of people, the Qingyun Sect might just have escaped calamity.
As for what would happen next, how the Great Elder and Prince Xiang Qiyan would negotiate, that was beyond their concern.
He just needed to remind himself to report the entire trip’s events to his Revered Master upon return.
“Er.”
The brothers choked upon hearing Brother Zhen’s words.
Indeed, hadn’t they been spared from being implicated by Gu Qingyu? The Qingyun Sect had narrowly escaped a disaster, but… there was still the Great Elder to consider. How would the Great Elder react upon learning his dearly beloved granddaughter was dead? Would he fly into a rage?
But even if he did, what of it? Could the Great Elder really pick a dispute with the Xiang Dynasty?
“So what do we do next? Should we ask for Gu Qingyu’s body to be returned?” One of the brothers asked timidly.
At this question, several of the brothers were stunned. However, they didn’t have much time to be shocked as guards were already bringing over Gu Qingyu’s body.
…
In the new room, the wound on An Jiuyue’s arm was exposed to the air.
Qian Jiyun’s dark eyes glinted with threads of murderous intent. His gaze, as expressive as speech, seemed to say that Gu Qingyu shouldn’t have been let off so easily in death!
“What is Wei Na doing?”
As he treated An Jiuyue’s wound, he asked.
When leaving, he had added an extra restriction, thinking that with Wei Na keeping watch, nothing would go wrong. Little did he know, a mishap had still occurred.
“It’s not Wei Na’s fault, I thought about buying some items from the Points Mall, and it was during my moment of inattention that Gu Qingyu found her opportunity,” An Jiuyue explained.
