Faced with Xue Qilin’s question, Qi Qiqi stared at her, annoyed.

“Really, the Wulin Conference is a grand event in the Wulin. The Merak Temple has always been a co-organizer. There’s no way I can not go?”

“Even so, you don’t have to go in person! Why don’t you just send a representative?”

“Qilin, it’s not that simple...” Qi Qi shook her head, “The other sects will all send their sect masters. We are going to fight over the right to have a say! Although the Leisure Manor is the ‘host’. In fact, however, all matters will be decided by the Five Great Sects. The Leisure Manor is at most in charge of mediation.”

“Ah, is that so...?”

Xue Qilin blinked blankly. In exchange, she got an “affirmative” look from Qi Qiqi.

Then, Qi Qiqi continued to explain, “To put it bluntly, those who can get more say will be able to lead the Wulin Conference, gain more benefits for their sects, and even make some rules beneficial to their sects. In other words, it’s a matter of great interest to the sects! Qilin, do you know why the One Dao Cult’s Cult Master is the current leader of the Wulin Alliance?”

Eh, the leader of the Wulin Alliance is that brat [1] Immaculate Violetcloud? Xue Qilin, who heard this for the first time, shook her head. She bitterly realized that her general knowledge is grossly insufficient and that she hasn’t paid sufficient attention to many things.

At this time, the two noticed that Li Wanting left her study and is coming this way. They both glanced at her.

Li Wanting seems to have calmed down. But, there is still unconcealable excitement in her eyes. Probably not wanting to disturb the conversation between the two people, she silently sat down on an empty seat and didn’t disturb them.

An unreconciled expression appeared on Qi Qiqi’s face, and then she continued the explanation, “In the last Wulin Conference, the One Dao Cult gained the initiative, which led to the One Dao Cult obtaining an advantage regarding the rules of the Wulin Conference’s competition and having an outstanding record. This indirectly upgraded their fame. Thus, the leader of the Wulin Alliance was changed from the Beggar’s Union’s sect master Senior Long to the One Dao Cult’s Cult Master Senior Violetcloud. Besides –”

Qi Qiqi looked straight at Xue Qilin and said in a solemn tone tinged with reproach, “The Wulin Conference concerns the position of the Five Great Sects, as well! I can’t neglect it! Do you understand now, Qilin?”

“I do!”

Xue Qilin said this sullenly. She feels that Qi Qiqi deliberately asked her if she understands, so as to question her understanding ability. Qi Qiqi explained it really clearly. Xue Qilin, who isn’t impossibly stupid, naturally could understand it.

On the other hand, since this concerns the interests of the sect, Xue Qilin knows that it is impossible to persuade Qi Qiqi not to go to the imperial capital and attend the meeting. After all, since Qi Qiqi is the Temple Master, she has unshirkable responsibilities regarding the Merak Temple.

“In that case, shall I accompany you to the imperial capital? It’s just to cheer you on and what not. In any case, I’m a Heaven Realm practitioner. As such, I do have a bit of power, influence, and so on, right?

After hearing Gong Tianqing mention that Qi Qiqi will go to the imperial capital for a meeting, Xue Qilin planned to go with her.

Although, what she said about cheering Qi Qiqi on is just an excuse. Xue Qilin’s real purpose is to protect Qi Qiqi, to protect her from the Emperor’s malice.

“You can’t!”

Qi Qiqi, who doesn’t seem to have any intention of letting Xue Qilin accompany her, immediately refused the other party’s kindness. Xue Qilin felt a bit sad about this and showed a hurt expression.

“Qilin, I didn’t mean it like that!”

Probably thinking that she hurt Xue Qilin, Qi Qiqi anxiously waved her hands. Seeing her appearance, Xue Qilin’s mischievous heart suddenly surged, and she pouted and said, pretending to be downcast, “You think that I will mess up, so you don’t want me to go with you...”

“So troublesome! I really didn’t mean it like that!”

At a loss of what to do, Qi Qiqi looks like a child who did something wrong and is asking for forgiveness, but doesn’t know how to apologize. She opened her mouth, and then closed it again. After a while, she finally mumbled, “I’m sorry... I was going to let you go with me. But plans cannot keep up with changes...”

Qi Qiqi spoke in a weak, not always consistent tone of voice.

It seems that Xue Qilin has occupied a very important position in her heart. At the beginning, she would not show such humility in front of Xue Qilin.

Feeling happy for this, Xue Qilin resisted a smile, and her lips became twisted. She deliberately lowered her head and let the bangs cover the slightly pleased expression that embellished her face, and then asked while pretending to be naive, “What do you mean?”

“Well... It’s — I suddenly got the news that the School of Mo’s Secret Hall emerged this morning. Its emergence shocked both the Wulin and the Imperial Court. Reportedly, the other sects have already started to move.”

Qi Qiqi appears to be quite fretful, and her tone is tinged with discontent.

“It’s said that the School of Mo’s Secret Hall contains the secret of the School of Mo’s greatness. Perhaps all the scriptures of the School of Mo’s mechanism arts are hidden there. Therefore, we also plan to send someone... And our first choice is Older Sister Li. After all, she is the one most familiar with mechanism arts. But we never know what dangers may lurk there. So, I want you to accompany and protect Older Sister Li. The most annoying thing is that it is no different from looting. As such, who knows what the other sects will do?”

After hearing Qi Qiqi’s explanation, Xue Qilin realized that Li Wanting’s trip may be full of danger.

First of all, since the School of Mo is famous for its mechanism arts, the Secret Hall may be full of mechanisms. As the saying goes, things are valuable in proportion of their rarity. If there is really a secret of the School of Mo hidden in the School of Mo’s Secret Hall, there will be inevitably a fight. When that time comes, the people sent by the Merak Temple will probably be right in the middle of it.

Because of this, Qi Qiqi needs Xue Qilin to accompany her.

Ye Zhen and Xue Qilin have the highest realm in the Merak Temple.

Because of the lack of Heaven Realm practitioners, the two cannot leave the Merak Temple at the same time. One of them must stay at the Merak Temple as a deterrent so that bad people won’t try to take advantage of them.

In this way, when only one Heaven Realm practitioner can leave the temple, Xue Qilin must choose between the imperial capital and the Scholl of Mo’s Secret Hall. Xue Qilin is more inclined to accompany Qi Qiqi to the imperial capital. Qi Qiqi, on the other hand, wants her to protect Li Wanting and go investigate the School of Mo’s Secret Hall.

Xue Qilin, who momentarily doesn’t know what to do, feels distressed.

“Please, Qilin. I don’t want Older Sister Ting to be in danger. Although she’s an Earth Realm practitioner, but she’s not fond of the martial path. She’s actually weaker than me...”

Qi Qiqi put her palms together, pitifully peeked at Xue Qilin’s expression, and requested thusly with a pout. Evidently, after interacting with the other party for a period of time, Qi Qiqi has learned that Xue Qilin is amenable to soft tactics rather than hard tactics when it comes to some major matters.

However, judging by the a bashful blush on her cheeks, it doesn’t seem like she is used to request things in such a way.
