ThisJiwen and the citadel lord furrow their brows They had reached a unani this deal They didn’t want any coht cause the deal to turn awry, thus they had a bad feeling as she stood up

Li Qiye glanced at her and lazily asked: “What’s the matter?”

She put on a business-like appearance as she coldly said: “You s outside of theprocess Other ite Jiwen raised his voice: “Junior sister, what are you doing?”

Hao Yuzhen was causing trouble on purpose She didn’t kno he ed to convince the ancient ancestors in the sect, but at this reat threat to her

Therefore, she wanted to use this opportunity to stop Li Qiye Stopping Li Qiye was the sareement about this matter, so what are these sudden complications?” The citadel lord was unhappy as well and looked over at Ancestor Hao

Ancestor Hao slowly said: “The deal and agreeed, but we must be cautious for the safety of the ancestral tree Your alchemist is here for our treasure, who dares say that he won’t do anything shady in secret?”

The citadel lord glanced over at the other older ancestors here and asked: “Ancestors, what are your thoughts?”

“Alche items inside, but as a preventative measure, we must ask to check your items first” An old ancestor spoke with a deep tone

They were still very wary of Li Qiye After Hao Yuzhen’s co to the ancestral vine

Despite being annoyed, the citadel lord and Teng Jiwen had no retorts The reasoning was sound Even though they weren’t necessarily cautious of Li Qiye, they still didn’t want to complicate the deal Otherwise, all of their efforts would have been in vain

“Did you hear that? Let us perform a full body search; every item of yours must be checked as well” With the approval of the older ancestors, Hao Yuzhen was elanced over at the old ancestors fro his head: “There are a few excellent ht that there would have been changes It seems that in the end, it is still just a bunch of inflexible old men What a disappointment”

The older ancestors were not happy to hear this disdainful comment Meanwhile, the master and disciple pair turned bitter This matter had taken a sudden turn for the worse

“Naive fool, you dare to shame our citadel? Take this!” This was a rare opportunity, so Hao Yuzhen naturally wouldn’t let it go Her palm aimed for his face 1

However, before this slap could reach Li Qiye, her hand was suddenly gripped by him He stared directly at her face and smiled: “An idiot like you dares to scream in front of me? You don’t know life from death!”

“Crank! Crack!” He crushed her slender, jade-white ar his sentence 2

“Help!” She screaht hand was already clutching her milky pale neck

He ay too fast Even the ancestors here had a difficult ti him move Before they knew it, he already had her raised into the air by the neck

1 “Take this” in the raas actually “Slap (his) mouth” It’s fine in Chinese because people know that she is referring to slapping the face as a punishlish that she is announcing her own punish it out herself “Take this” makes more sense as a localization versus “Slap him” or “Take this slap” Maybe “you deserved to be slapped” would make sense as well

2 Raw here is jade-white ar onion is white, so it is describing that color
