Chapter 345: The female thief’s attitude shocked everyone!
In room number three, as soon as the skinny old man said this, the atmosphere suddenly became extremely depressing.
The murderous aura, the strong murderous aura, almost made it hard to breathe.
If anyone else were present, they would probably have knelt on the ground in fear, begging for forgiveness from the skinny old man.
Even the female thief was startled. She had never seen her master so angry, but Yan Qingyue still sat calmly on the round stool. Zhao Mu was busy tidying up his wrinkled clothes, picking up the clothes on the ground and dusting off the dust on them.
It seemed as if the two men didn't hear what the thin old man said at all.
A hint of worry flashed across the female thief's bright eyes. She tugged at the skinny old man's arm and said, "Master, don't be so angry. It's not worth it to get yourself hurt. Besides, nothing has happened to me, has it?"
???
Not only did the skinny old man look back at his apprentice in surprise, but even Yan Qingyue looked at the little thief in some astonishment.
As for Zhao Mu, he suddenly froze while dusting off the dirt.
This little girl actually spoke up for them?
And those eyes that kept moving around were obviously trying to signal him frantically, asking him to admit his mistake, apologize, and say something soft.
No, what's going on with this little bitch? Could it be that she's attracted to me...
However, Zhao Mu not only ignored the female thief's gaze, but instead looked the thin old man in the eye and replied calmly, "If you really wanted to kill me, you should have done it last night when I punished your disciple, right?"
"Oh, so you've been aware of my presence for a long time?"
"That's not the case. Senior's method of concealment is beyond my ability to detect."
What Zhao Mu said was true. He couldn't even notice the little girl, let alone this old man.
"If you can't detect it, then why are you saying this?"
The thin old man suddenly became interested.
"How could this little girl be so stupid as to sneak out of the house by herself? There must be someone secretly following her. Otherwise, she would have been taken advantage of long ago."
Perhaps because Zhao Mu called her a stupid girl, the female thief immediately said in dissatisfaction, "You are the idiot. Your whole family is idiots. I have been out for more than a few months and have never failed. Others can't even notice me. It's only because of you that I suffered a loss."
"Isn't that still a disadvantage?"
Zhao Mu chuckled and said jokingly, "If your master hadn't been following you secretly, even if I really asked you to give birth to a child tonight, it would be easy. This loss is really huge."
"You...I, I'll give birth to a child if I want. Who's afraid of you? Giving birth to two unfilial and disobedient children for you will only piss you off to death. Humph!"
"..."
Seeing the female thief folding her arms, her chest heaving with anger, Zhao Mu was a little confused. Is this the only way to retaliate? This really broadened his horizons.
"Since you know that I, the old man, am in the dark, how dare you bully Xier like this."
"I was just cooperating with you, Senior. Teach this little girl a lesson on the evil nature of human nature and the saying that there are always people who are better than you. Don't be so arrogant just because you have a skill like "Brushing Sleeves and Severing Shadows."
Zhao Mu chuckled softly and stated the reason without any reservation. He looked at Xiao Lingxi and said, "If I'm not mistaken, Senior deliberately let this little girl escape, right?"
"You are really smart, you can see everything so clearly."
Dao Wuji chuckled, "However, no matter what you say, it can't change the fact that you bullied Xier, not to mention that you dared to plot against me, an old man. Tell me, how do you want to die?"
"Of course he died of old age."
“…”
Xiao Lingxi glanced at Zhao Mu speechlessly and whispered to him, "Hey, are you stupid? You don't really want to die, do you? Hurry up and apologize to my master and say a few kind words."
???
Zhao Mu was stunned. This little girl was actually helping him.
Yan Qingyue continued to sit on the round stool without any reaction, as if everything had nothing to do with her, or perhaps she knew that Zhao Mu could handle everything. Seeing this, Xiao Lingxi felt very strange: Are these two really a Taoist couple?
"Senior, please don't slander me. I didn't bully your apprentice. You saw it yourself. Her clothes are intact. As for the calculation, you can't even talk about it. You jumped out of it yourself. What does it have to do with me?"
"Glib and eloquent."
"Cough cough~"
Zhao Mu coughed lightly, then looked at Dao Wuji and asked seriously, "Senior, that's enough, there's no need to scare me anymore. Besides, you can't scare me, right?"
"Scare you?"
"Is not it?"
Zhao Mu chuckled faintly, "If I'm not mistaken, the senior should know Old Man Qi, and they might have a very good relationship. He also saw through my identity, right?"
"Old Man Qi? Could it be Grandpa Qi?"
Xiao Lingxi's lively eyes flickered slightly, and the image of an unremarkable old man appeared in her mind.
"You guessed right, I do know Old Man Qi."
Dao Wuji was too lazy to pretend anymore and smiled faintly: "But I'm curious, how did you guess this?"
"First of all, with your ability as an elder, you must have been able to tell that what I gave your disciple was thunder poison. Thunder poison is the remnant of tribulation thunder and is extremely rare. There are only a handful of people in this world who can produce this poison. Old Man Qi likes to show off, so he must have told his friends some nonsense, such as that I had once caused tribulation thunder.
Apart from that, Senior never had any murderous thoughts towards me from beginning to end. This is actually very abnormal. After all, I "punished" this little girl last night. How could Senior, who loves his disciple so much, not have any murderous thoughts at all?
Also, the magical skill of "Flicking Sleeves and Cutting Shadows" is most suitable for a thief. The little girl enjoys stealing other people's things as soon as she ran out. It is obvious that she is influenced by her predecessors.
Anyone who can become good friends with Old Man Qi is probably not a good person, no...slip of the tongue, slip of the tongue..."
“…”
Dao Wuji was speechless for a moment, but he said frankly: "Yes, Qi Daorong is not a good person, and I am not a good person either. I am the thief saint Dao Wuji who is hated by everyone in this world."
"Now that we've spoken, let's remove the lightning poison from Xier's body!"
"As it should be."
Zhao Mu stood up and walked in front of Xiao Lingxi. He stretched out his hand and touched the latter's brow. Immediately afterwards, a drop of inky black lightning wrapped in special energy appeared. It was the lightning poison that Zhao Mu retained during the thunder tribulation.
"You bastard, you really poisoned me."
"if not!"
Zhao Mu shrugged at the little girl, then bowed slightly to the Thief Saint, "Senior Thief Saint, I have a humble request."
"Want to learn the art of flicking sleeves and breaking shadows?"
"good."
"You betrayed your master and became my disciple."
"..."
Zhao Mu was stunned for a moment, but quickly refused: "Sorry, senior, this is not possible."
Although Old Man Qi is a bit unreasonable, he is really nice to him. People should have moral principles.
"Then forget it. Brushing Sleeves and Severing Shadows is a unique skill of our thief sect and is never passed on to others."
As soon as Dao Wuji finished speaking, he disappeared from the spot.
"Master, Master, please wait for me!"
Xiao Lingxi shouted out the window a few times before turning back to glare at Zhao Mu. "Just wait, you bastard! I'll be back to settle the score with you later."
“…”
