Mo Qi's expression let Shen Qing know that this boy was by no means the submissive person he seemed. Although he was currently following Liu Jie just to find a longer-term supporter, as time went by, sooner or later, he would become
Liu Jie’s pet peeve!
But Shen Qing would naturally not talk to Liu Jie about these things, and he didn't owe him anything. On the contrary, he liked to hear about dogs biting dogs.
Because he didn't notice Mo Qi's expression, Liu Jie's focus quickly returned to Shen Qing. He smiled seemingly sincerely and said: "Brother Shen Qing, I believe that after this incident,
, those misunderstandings and grudges between us can all be put to rest, right?"
In response to this statement, Shen Qing smiled and nodded.
First of all, we must admit that although we still don’t know what Liu Jie is thinking, his temporary betrayal today has indeed solved the problem for himself. Otherwise, even if Liu Jie is on the sidelines and Shen Qing is alone,
With his own strength, even if he is not killed, it will be difficult for him to escape from Qi Tianyang.
This is an undoubted fact!
Secondly, Liu Jie made one detail very important, that is, he could actually order Mo Qi to kill Qi Tianyang, because in that case, once the incident came to light, he would have the opportunity to completely clear away the responsibility, but his choice
But he took action himself, which undoubtedly showed Shen Qing's determination to stand aside.
Judging from these two points, no matter what Liu Jie's innermost plans were, at least for a period of time, he really didn't want to embarrass himself anymore.
Shen Qing thought this. Of course, he didn't know that Mo Qi's best skill was the Earth Splitting Palm. Although Liu Jie killed Qi Tianyang with his own hands, he still kept Mo Qi around because of the consequences.
Without knowing this situation, Shen Qing would naturally make some wrong judgments.
To be honest, for him, it is really a great benefit to be able to live in peace with Liu Jie for a while, because it would be fine if he is just a lonely man who can feed himself and the whole family is not hungry, but after all, he is not, the man behind him
The family still has to count on him, so if the grudge between him and Liu Jie quickly escalates to the point of incompatibility, it is not certain what the consequences will be, but the family will definitely fall into dire straits because of the Liu family's power.
This is also an undoubted fact!
After all, in terms of family strength alone, the current Shen family is far from strong enough to compete with Liu Jie, and Shen Qing's own strength alone cannot shake the foundation of the Liu family at all, because let alone Wanrenshan
The King of Heaven, Liu Changfeng, and even Liu Hengfeng, who was only the second in the Liu family, were far from beings that he could touch now.
It is not even an exaggeration to say that if there is a battle, Liu Hengfeng alone can wipe out the current Shen family!
Therefore, it is obvious that out of family interests, if Liu Jie shows his sincerity, he really has no reason to insist on rejecting it, because as the young master of the family, he cannot rely solely on people or things.
Make your own judgment based on your own likes and dislikes.
Of course, this presupposes that Liu Jiede must show real sincerity like he is now. If he still just talks a few words like before, Shen Qing will naturally not believe him.
Since then, Shen Qing has always had a cold face towards him, but now he has a smile on his face. Even if this is just for fun, Liu Jie is already very satisfied.
So he took a look at Shen Qing and decided to strike while the iron was hot.
"Brother Shen Qing, since you also think that there is no need for us to have bitter feuds with each other, then we might as well talk about the business that was delayed due to various misunderstandings."
After saying that, Liu Jie paused, "As I said, if you join my Liu family, I guarantee that you will get the highest treatment. We two brothers will work together to move forward. Wan Renshan will not mention it. I believe it will be soon.
Wu Yuncheng is no problem either!"
"Senior Brother Liu..."
"Shut up!"
Mo Qi, who wanted to interrupt again, was given a sharp look by Liu Jie.
Shen Qing knew very well that Liu Jie would never sincerely invite him to cooperate, but since this was the best choice at the moment, Shen Qing naturally had to act like a partner.
Seeing that Liu Jie and Mo Qi were in a stalemate, he took the initiative to persuade him: "Young Master Liu, as an outsider, I may have something inappropriate to say, but after thinking about it, I think I still have to say it."
When it was time to talk to Shen Qing, Liu Jie's attitude immediately changed for the better.
"Hey, Brother Shen Qing, you are too unorthodox when you talk like this. No matter what you have to say, you can just say it!" Liu Jie laughed, as if he was very generous.
"Then I'll say it." Shen Qing cast his eyes on Mo Qi, looked at him for a few times, and said: "Young Master Liu, you might as well put yourself in his shoes. As Young Master Mo, he has been advising you.
In fact, there is nothing wrong with it. On the contrary, he is also advising you to be cautious, which will prove his care for you. Forgive me for saying something that is not very pleasant. If this is not the case, who would want to be so hot-faced?
Who would be willing to be a bitch if you are being cold-blooded?"
Liu Jie didn't react at all to Shen Qing's words, but Mo Qi was stunned by what he said!
Firstly, he never expected that Shen Qing would actually speak for him. Secondly, Shen Qing really explained his current feelings accurately. He, Mo Qi, was secretly complaining in his heart that he shouldn't have done this!
But of course, the reason why he was a bitch was not because he was thinking about Liu Jie from the perspective of a friend, as Shen Qing said, but more out of thinking about himself, because he was not angry in his heart.
I also feel that once Shen Qing gets too close to Liu Jie, it will be detrimental to him.
What needs to be explained here is that the reason why he feels unhappy is mainly because of comparison.
Think about it, he has been hanging around Liu Jie like a dog. When people said something happened, he immediately rushed over from the Kuangsha Sect. When people said he didn't want to deal with Shen Qing, he immediately attacked Shen Qing at the wine party.
In provocation, he followed Liu Jie's wishes in everything, but in the end, Liu Jie was not as enthusiastic towards him as Shen Qinglai. Who else could it be that wouldn't feel resentful?
As for why he felt that being too close to Shen Qing and Liu Jie would be detrimental to him, the reason was even simpler. He was a down-to-earth villain with a petty mind and full of petty schemes. He judged others by himself, thinking that
Shen Qing would definitely speak ill of Liu Jie in his ears. After all, he had some unpleasantness with Shen Qing, even if the main reason for the unpleasantness was Liu Jie.
But now, Shen Qing actually spoke for him, not even caring about the juncture that he had just reconciled with Liu Jie. Isn't he afraid that Liu Jie would not be able to step down because of this?
Mo Qi quickly glanced at Liu Jie.
As he expected, although Liu Jie had an embarrassed smile on his face, in fact, as his fellow disciple for two years, he knew that Liu Jie was already quite unhappy in his heart.
However, Shen Qing didn't seem to notice it, and still said good things for herself.
In the end, Liu Jie had no choice but to give Shen Qing some face and reluctantly apologized to Mo Qi.
Mo Qi was very frightened and waved his hands repeatedly saying that it would not happen.
Seeing Mo Qi's expression and not knowing who he was because of Shen Qing's few words, Liu Jie didn't take it to heart and the incident just passed.
As a result, Liu Jie's hatred for Shen Qing has not diminished, and his attitude towards Mo Qi has not changed, but he never expected that Mo Qi's view of Shen Qing would quietly change!
...
Because Qi Tianyang's death would definitely cause a stir in the city, Liu Jie and Mo Qi left the tavern quickly afterwards. They didn't even plan to stay longer in Wuyun outer city, but went straight back to their hometown and Wanren Mountain.
.
But Shen Qing didn't leave. First of all, he had already wasted so much time, so he just stayed for a few more days. Now that the Qiankun Soul Competition was coming soon, he came out to experience it and finally went to see it.
Secondly, he has to wait for someone here, someone he must kill!
But of course, the reason why Liu Jie went back with confidence was because they had already agreed that when the Qin Kun Soul Contest was over, Shen Qing would go to their Liu family. By then, what business would they "brothers" do together?
It’s not too late to elaborate further.
With Shen Qing's guarantee, Liu Jie is definitely not afraid that Shen Qing will escape his sight, because sooner or later, he will be back under his nose.
Outside Wuyun City, the news of Qi Tianyang's death has not been leaked yet, so everything is still calm.
In order to avoid being too ostentatious, Liu Jie and Mo Qi did not ride flying swords, but chose to buy a carriage and return on the main road.
The ancient road outside the city is lined with horseshoes.
"Junior brother Mo, don't you have anything to say about my decision?" In the carriage, Liu Jie was in a good mood as he looked at the scenery along the way and asked casually.
Mo Qi glanced at him and thought to himself, "You scolded me when I spoke, and you didn't let me speak when I shut up. Are you sick?"
He was thinking this in his heart, but he definitely couldn't say it with his mouth, so he smiled and said: "I think it's very good. Young Master Shen is extremely talented. If he can be used by you, Senior Brother Liu, he will definitely be a sharp sword in the future."
"Do you really think so?" Liu Jie turned to look at him, with a mocking smile on his face.
Mo Qi was startled and didn't know how to answer.
Liu Jie didn't seem to be prepared to let him answer, and then he said to himself: "Junior brother Mo, don't you think about it, considering the hatred between Shen Qing and I, he can really serve our Liu family? To say the least, he can,
Can I, Liu Jie, tolerate him?"
"That..."
"You want to ask me why I helped him kill Qi Tianyang, right? Haha, it's very simple!"
As he said that, Liu Jie showed a proud look on his face, "Why do you think I haven't used my Yuan Skill before? Because Shen Qing and I both know very well that if we want to decide the winner, we can only use our skills to look after each other.
You have to be good at it, otherwise no matter how you fight, it will be a waste of time and energy!"
"But what does this have to do with killing Qi Tianyang?" Mo Qi really didn't understand.
"Haha, of course it's related. Because if I guessed correctly, his strongest elemental skill is the Supreme Essence of Mad Fire True Meaning!"
"Of course, I just had suspicions about this before, so I made up some corpse dismemberment case to deceive him. But what about the facts? Does it prove that I was indeed right?!"
"Senior Brother Liu, you really have a sharp eye!"
"Okay, stop flattering me. You should understand now why I want to keep him. The reason is very simple. The true meaning of mad fire is one of the most suitable Yuan skills for me. As a fellow junior, you should know this better than anyone else.
, our great elder has said it himself. Therefore, I must get the supreme essence of the true meaning of Kuanghuo."
"And this is only the second step!"
The carriage rumbled, and inside the carriage, a sinister smile appeared on Liu Jie's face.
