But Bai Rou had been through some experience after all, and even if she had a simple mind, she would eventually make some progress. In a panic, she thought of some things and quickly used them as excuses to prevaricate.
"Oh? Senior Brother Hu is injured? I wonder how he is now..."
After hearing this, Li Yan immediately interrupted and asked, seemingly not noticing the teasing tone in Tan Tai Dong Yue's voice.
Li Yan has always treated Bai Rou as a friend, especially at the beginning, Li Yan didn't want to get involved in the trivial matters of Bai Rou and Sun Guoshu.
Li Yan remained expressionless and changed the subject.
"Brother Hu, your right chest was pierced by a demon cultivator. I think he will need to stay in seclusion for quite some time to recuperate.
I heard that Senior Brother Li led Senior Sister Rou and Senior Brother Hu to escape the pursuit of a Jindan demon. If it is true, Senior Brother Li's magical power is beyond the reach of people of the same level as me.
Three days ago, he showed off his prowess and killed more than ten demon cultivators of the same level. Junior Sister Zhou Chan is very polite. "
This time, without waiting for Bai Rou to answer, one of the three young women smiled sweetly and slightly opened her red lips.
Li Yan couldn't help but stare at her, glancing at the logo on the girl's sleeve. She was a disciple of Lingchong Peak.
Ever since he revealed his identity, the two girls from the Wuliang Sect and the other girl in pink palace dress have been staring at him intently. Although there is shyness in their eyes, there is more surprise and curiosity.
As soon as Li Yan heard these words, a hint of murderous intent flashed in his eyes, but when he turned his head, his face was gentle.
The girl from Lingchong Peak should have joined the sect many years earlier than him, but today she called him senior brother.
Li Yan's glance passed over Bai Rou's face casually, and then he bowed to the girl from Lingchong Peak with a smile on his face.
“I don’t know where this junior sister heard the rumor from. The previous events were all fabricated. At that time, Li only relied on his better flying magic weapon to escape for a distance with Senior Brother Hu and the others.
If my master had not arrived in time, I think Senior Brother Hu and I would have died together.
Otherwise, why would I have stayed in the cave and caused my master to waste so many elixirs just to save my life
What happened a few days ago was just luck. If it weren't for the invisibility talisman and many poison pills given by my master, I wouldn't have been able to do that."
Li Yan didn't want others to know that he was able to escape from "Zhou Yang Town" that day and deal with a Jindan demon cultivator.
So when the girl named Zhou from Lingchong Peak said this, he had already developed murderous intent, and this murderous intent even included Bai Rou.
Because apart from the devil, only Bai Rou and the little purple dragon elephant knew the whole story of his fight with others.
For people like Elder Chi Gong and his own master who knew about this matter later, it should be an inevitable explanation after the mission was completed. It would be difficult to hide it, but that’s all.
Unexpectedly, the girl from Lingchong Peak said such words as soon as they met, which made Li Yan feel murderous.
The first thing he thought of was the possibility that Bai Rou had leaked the secret, but when his eyes swept over Bai Rou, he knew that it was not Bai Rou who leaked the secret.
Bai Rou has been dating Li Yan for quite some time, and she is very clear about this junior brother's temperament. Knowing that he is extremely reluctant to reveal his own cultivation level, she immediately shook her head gently.
Her action was so small that no one else noticed it, but Li Yan understood its meaning and felt relieved. He knew Bai Rou's character well and knew she would not lie.
Even the words of thanks expressed by King Hu Xiao should be true, but I don't know under what circumstances they were said.
Li Yan's mind raced, and he had already come up with his own guess, which should have been revealed by Hu Xiaowang or Yan Feijun.
They only knew that he led them to escape a long distance, and they had no idea what happened afterwards. They probably just made some speculations.
In that situation, Li Yan did not abandon the other five people and escape by himself. This is an extremely rare thing in the world of immortal cultivation.
Therefore, it was not an exaggeration for King Hu Xiao and the others to thank him, and they would also take the opportunity to praise themselves. They might have wanted to make Li Yan famous, but they never thought that this was what Li Yan least wanted to see.
However, as long as it didn't come from Bai Rou's mouth, the fight with the demon cultivator that night was only known to a few people, so Li Yan just brought it up.
When he talked about what happened three days ago, he pushed all the credit onto his master. As for whether the other party believed it or not, he didn't care.
Anyway, no one would really dare to ask Wei Chongran.
Sure enough, after Li Yan said this, everyone, including the girl from Lingchong Peak, looked skeptical.
But there were also some monks who were listening to the noise here and did not show anything on their faces. They were the monks who rushed forward three days ago and participated in killing the remaining demons.
Although they did not refute Li Yan's words, they absolutely did not believe it in their hearts. For example, Gong Yuantai and his men had fought with the remaining poisoned demon cultivators.
None of them were like Li Yan, who could kill the opponent with one blow.
Of course, Bai Rou and Du Sanjiang are also included here. Bai Rou has witnessed the ferocity of this junior brother with her own eyes, so she knows Li Yan's character very well.
Du Sanjiang is a calm person. He had previously asked Gong Yuantai in detail about what happened that day. Moreover, he is different from Gong Yuantai and others.
He knew very well what Li Yan's physical condition was, so of course he almost died on the spot.
Later, Li Yan also knew the names of the other two girls. One was a disciple named Tan from Laojun Peak, and the other was a core disciple of the Wangliang Sect, which governed a large sect.
The woman's surname was He, and her cultivation had reached the Fake Dan realm. She was the most promising disciple in the sect. As for her name, Li Yan was too lazy to remember it. In addition to the three young girls, some other cultivators in the courtyard were attracted by the "Tongguiling" battle of the "Qing Sixteenth Team" a few days ago. Many of them did not believe that Li Yan had such great ability and wanted to see his cultivation with their own eyes.
Li Yan had not returned yet, so they just took this opportunity to exchange information with each other.
The three girls had indeed asked Bai Rou about Li Yan's situation, but Bai Rou evaded the question by saying that she had already fainted that day and didn't want to say more.
Although the three young girls did not get the exact answer, given Li Yan's identity as a disciple of Xiaozhu Peak.
In addition, since other people had talked about how powerful Li Yan was in the battle three days ago, they all wanted to make friends with him. Some even thought that it would be even better if they could become Taoist companions, but if they couldn't, they would at least keep some friendship between them.
The world of cultivating immortals is such a reality. No matter whether the three young girls have had lovers of their own before, they all want to get more resources for cultivation and a backer.
After seeing Li Yan flatly deny his fighting ability, the foreign cultivators felt that this was probably the truth.
It is well known that Li Yan has a good master, and he possesses powerful poison pills and talismans, so this is the only explanation.
As for what the "Youth Sixteenth Team" said before, it was just to find a decent excuse after suffering heavy casualties.
Next, of course Li Yan changed the topic and asked about the information that Du Sanjiang and the others had inquired about, but in the end he only got a general idea.
By now, the battlefield between the two sides should have moved southward for at least five or six thousand miles, but no seriously injured monks have been sent back yet, so the information that can be obtained is also limited.
But think about it, this is what should be done. If a few seriously injured people are sent back for treatment, then a lot of escort monks will be needed on the battlefield every day, which will only bring great pressure to our side.
Therefore, the bodies of seriously injured or deceased monks were most likely placed in the "Soul Storage Bag". This kind of storage magic weapon was rare among Li Yan and his companions, but it was not lacking among Jindan monks.
Therefore, after Wei Chongran, Elder Chi Gong and others left, no news came back.
Bai Rou was extremely worried about Elder Chi Gong, and she would go in to find out information with everyone else every day.
Ever since she whispered a rebuttal to Tan Tai Dong Yue's words, Bai Rou has not spoken again and just stood silently to the side.
Occasionally he looked up and glanced at everyone, including Li Yan of course.
Instead, the three young girls and Tan Tai Dong Yue asked Li Yan some questions from time to time, but as long as it was related to themselves, Li Yan would evade the question if possible, otherwise he would simply not mention it.
Anyway, he doesn't care what others think of him. Du Sanjiang would sometimes keep his gaze on Li Yan for a little longer. Li Yan knew that the other party was looking at his "fragmented poisonous body", hoping to see something.
Li Yan pretended to be ignorant of this. Even he himself could not truly control the cultivation process of "Fractured Poisonous Body", so how could others see anything
Li Yan then asked about the situation of the "Green Sixteenth Team", and Gong Yuantai sighed.
“In the last battle, we only had fifty-two people left, including seventeen seriously injured. It was a heavy casualty.
Although more than a hundred new members have been added, people like Qiao Baiye and Wang Ning have already withdrawn.
One of Qiao Baiye's legs was almost cut off. Although he was considered an elite disciple in the sect, he could not get the holy medicine that could heal broken limbs, so he needed to return to the sect to seek help.
Wang Ning had suffered serious internal injuries in the last battle when he was fighting against two South China Sea monks.
One of the cultivators on the other side was a veteran cultivator who had entered the realm of False Dan for more than sixty years. He was besieged by two people. In desperation, Wang Ning had to use his secret technique desperately.
Only then did he kill another weaker enemy and escape back to the group, thus saving his life.
But his tendons and veins were injured, and he would not be able to use powerful magic for at least one or two years, so he went to retreat to the rear to recuperate."
After listening to this, Li Yan looked at some familiar faces in the courtyard and felt a sense of emotion. In just three days, everything and everyone had changed. It seemed like a dream.
"Now that you're back, the 'Blue Sixteenth Team' is still in your hands. I also need to recuperate and meditate for a few days. My body has not yet fully recovered."
Gong Yuantai said with a smile that he had been in charge of arranging various matters since the newly recruited monks came over in recent days.
They have not been properly recuperated, and although there is no plan to send them to the battlefield immediately, some things still need to be prepared in advance.
Li Yan shook his head helplessly. He really hated this kind of thing. He felt most comfortable being alone.
But now his superiors did not ask him to remove his position as captain of the "Green Sixteenth Team". After he came back, what Gong Yuantai said was true.
Afterwards, after they chatted for a while, Li Yan called Tao Yishan and other members of the "Youth Team 16" aside, asked them about some things in detail, made some arrangements, and then dispersed.
These old members of the "Youth Sixteenth Team" now have great respect for Li Yan in their hearts. That day, Li Yan launched a lightning attack and confronted them head-on from a few miles away.
This has made them re-acquaint themselves with Li Yan. Although Li Yan flatly denied that it was due to his own strength, they no longer looked down on Li Yan.
After all, Li Yan was poisoned by a poison that even Jindan cultivators couldn't break, so they couldn't afford to offend this person.
When dealing with those poisoned demon cultivators, his attacks were extremely bloody and he was capable of tearing a life in half.
