The Boss's Blame is On Me (1)

Not knowing if it was an illusion, Ding Yi seemed to hear the vengeful ghost say something at that moment when she disappeared.

Liu Manor?

What did she mean, it is not over yet?

Ding Yi felt a vague uneasiness in her heart. As if she was lost in her senses, she lifted her head and suddenly saw a black crow standing on the wall. Its crimson red eyes were staring at her strangely.

She did not know how long it had stood there looking at her.

Yet at the moment Ding Yi responded, the black crow suddenly spread its wings and flew away.

That... it did not feel right!

Ding Yi immediately chased after it. Logically speaking, the task was over. She should not waste her energy meddling in other affairs.

But the black crow was so weird that she could not ignore it.

Ding Yi had a bad feeling about it, not because it appeared in the house like a camera. However, it was because she saw the demonic energy seeping out from the dead crow.

Yet coincidentally, the demonic energy was exactly the same as the one in Mu Yueshi!

What was that all about?

Were there any people from the Demon Clan around here? Or was this something that was related to the Demon Clan? Yuankong Zhenren was already dead, unless this situation was not over yet?

Ding Yi's mind was in a mess and the black crow flew farther and farther away. She was about to lose sight of it. Her heart was anxious like an ant in a hot pot.

Just when she was at a loss, a chilling sword light flashed in the air, like a sharp bow and arrow. It instantly stabbed the crow that was flying in mid air and it fell straight down.

That move was indeed shot by a master!

Ding Yi was overjoyed, and hurriedly ran towards the approximate direction where the black crow fell. She was getting closer to the destination but unexpectedly saw the figure dressed in brocade robes which was white like snow.

The man who holding the sword in his hand had the murderous intent between his brows. His whole body was refined and indifferent. He grabbed the dead black crow in his hand, frowning slightly, as if he was in deep thoughts, but also seemed suspicious.

Such an immortal figure. If he was not Master Lu Liheng, then who could he be?

"Master Lu! What are you doing here?" Ding Yi was surprised.

Lu Liheng looked at the direction of the voice, looking rather surprised, and nodded politely: "Miss Ding."

It was very unexpected that she would bump into Master Lu so quickly on that dark and windy night.

What a fate!

Ding Yi's eyes lit up, "Why is Master Lu here? Didn't you go back to the sect to go into seclusion? Did you personally come down the mountain to deal with some matters?"

Her enthusiastic series of questions made Lu Liheng look slightly stagnant, but he still showed a polite smile and replied: "Indeed, I have some important matters to attend to. The matter of Yuankong Zhenren alarmed Yuling Mountain. The sect master and senior uncle ordered me to carry out a thorough investigation and arrest. I don't want to be late."

Ding Yi's smile froze, and her heart suddenly burst.

They were doomed.

That was also done by Mu Yueshi. :)

Ding Yi, who instantly was not in the state of mind to strike up a conversation, frantically begged the system for help, Master Lu must have seen it!! What to do? What to do? Do I have to carry the blame again! !

The system unsympathetically replied: Yes. You have no other choice.

Ding Yi: T_T

However, when Ding Yi was racking her brains to explain her crime, Lu Liheng was one step ahead and spoke again: "Thanks to Miss Ding for this matter, obstructing Elder Yuankong from completing the forbidden technique which would almost cause a catastrophe. On behalf of Yuling Mountain, I thank Miss Ding for your great favor."

Ding Yi was shocked by Lu Gaoren's serious thanks and bow. She suddenly forgot what she was going to say, hurriedly waved and stammered, "You’re welcome! It's just a small matter. That’s no trouble at all. It is not worth mentioning."

Lu Liheng said sternly: "This matter is due to the negligence of Yuling Mountain. Miss Ding has eliminated harm for the people, so it is my duty to express my gratitude."

Ding Yi was embarrassed.

Getting rid of Yuankong Zhenren, the scourge, was in fact not my contribution.

But of course Ding Yi could not tell the truth. Since Lu Liheng thought so, then... let him regard it as her doing!

Since she took the blame for the first time, then she could also take the blame for the second time. It was better than having Master Lu being suspicious of Mu Yueshi. Who asked me to be the unlucky cannon fodder?

Ding Yi put aside the topic and awkwardly asked, "Master Lu, that... what is that black crow in your hand?"

Lu Liheng looked away and was silent for a moment before replying, "It's a monster."

As expected!

Ding Yi's strong desire to survive was instantly activated, and hurriedly said: "Master Lu, whether you believe it or not! I have nothing to do with this bird... It’s the truth! To be honest, when I went to Liu Manor, it even attacked me. According to my speculation, this must be a monster raised by Yuankong Zhenren!"

So it really was not me!

Lu Liheng pondered for a moment, his eyelids narrowed slightly, and after a while, he smiled, "Miss Ding, don't panic, I have no ill intentions towards you."

How could I not panic?

The only demon cultivator in the city who was in front of you without armor was me. If I did not explain it clearly, the blame would be placed on me anytime!
