Villain: Who said I came here to break off the engagement?

After arranging all this, Li Guanhai stepped into the gate of the Earth Emperor Palace.

Many female disciples who were here to protect the sect hurriedly tidied up their clothes and tried to make themselves look decent and leave a good impression on the other party.

Facing the greetings and thanks from everyone, Li Guanhai nodded, but his eyes never left the white figure at the back of the crowd.

Seeing him approaching step by step, Lu Xuanjing's heart beat uncontrollably faster. She wanted to turn around and run away, but it was not appropriate to do so.

She was entangled in this dilemma, subconsciously moving her lotus steps lightly and moving back imperceptibly.

At this time, a woman next to her stopped her, with a puzzled look in her eyes, and asked in a low voice: "Xuanjing, where are you going?"

This woman was the second elder of the Earth Emperor Palace, Jian Qiulu, who was half of Lu Xuanjing's master.

Lu Xuanjing answered in a low voice: "No."

At this time, Li Guanhai had already walked up to Jian Qiulu and the elders present, and bowed as a junior, "I am Li Guanhai, and I meet all the seniors."

The elders saw that he was so humble and well-mannered, and not arrogant at all, and they had a better impression of him in their hearts.

Most of these elders had never seen Li Guanhai, because they stayed in the Earth Emperor Palace all year round and had never set foot in the upper world, so it was normal that they did not know Li Guanhai.

Although they had never seen him, they had heard of his reputation. Over the years, Li Guanhai's name has been resounding throughout the country, and it can almost be said that everyone knows it.

Everyone is praising him, but these Earth Emperor Palace elders think that he is a little too murderous and can cause too much trouble.

There are also elders who think that under his gentle and humble appearance, there is a cold and cruel heart, but he is just disguised very well, and the world has been deceived.

But today, Li Guanhai's timely arrival did save them and saved the Earth Emperor Palace.

Even if these elders had some prejudice against him, they were very grateful to him at this moment.

Jian Qiulu bowed and said, "Thank you, Young Master Guanhai, for your help. I will remember this kindness and repay it in the future."

"You are too polite, senior." Li Guanhai said, looking at Lu Xuanjing standing behind the elders with a slight look, and said with a smile, "We are all family members, so it's too formal to say that."

The elders heard this very pleasantly and there was nothing wrong with it.

But when it fell into Lu Xuanjing's ears, the meaning of the words changed completely.

She didn't know what she was thinking, her eyes were flustered for a moment, and then she quickly calmed down and pretended nothing happened.

Li Guanhai's little action could be hidden from others, but it couldn't be hidden from the second elder Jian Qiulu. She looked back at Lu Xuanjing and was confused.

Could it be that these two people knew each other?

Most of the elders in the Dihuang Palace didn't know about Lu Xuanjing's acquaintance with Li Guanhai, and it was normal for Jian Qiulu not to know.

Jian Qiulu clearly remembered that Li Guanhai was fighting against the sea clan army on the front line of the East China Sea, so why did he suddenly come here?

Could it be...

She had some guesses in her mind, but she didn't say it out loud, wanting to find out the truth after the matter was over.

At this time, Li Guanhai said: "Although the sea clan has withdrawn its troops, we still can't be careless. Maybe the other party will come back at any time."

"Just in case, I will temporarily stay outside the Earth Emperor Palace until all matters are ready and the sect protection formation is repaired and perfected before leaving."

Jian Qiulu and the elders bowed at the same time: "Thank you, Young Master Guanhai."

After the polite words, the elders also left.

After days of fighting, the consumption is extremely serious, and he has many injuries on his body. He needs to retreat as soon as possible to recover and adjust his condition to the peak to deal with the sea clan army that may attack at any time.

Li Guanhai wanted to go over and talk to Lu Xuanjing, but Elder Jian took Lu Xuanjing away directly, whether intentionally or unintentionally.

Since everyone had left, he had to give up and lead the warriors back to the flying Shenzhou.

Lu Xuanjing was brought to the Elder Peak where she lived by Jian Qiulu. As soon as she landed in front of the elegant palace, Jian Qiulu asked: "Xuanjing, do you know him?"

Lu Xuanjing's heart skipped a beat, but she still pretended to be calm and asked back: "Who is the second elder referring to?"

Jian Qiulu narrowed her eyes and said in a flat tone: "You know who I am referring to, Li Guanhai, you have known him for a long time, right?"

There are many rumors about this matter in the upper realm. When Li Guanhai came to find her, many disciples of the Earth Emperor Palace also knew about it. It was not a secret.

Lu Xuanjing knew that she could not hide it, so she nodded and admitted: "Yes, we know each other."

Jian Qiulu asked: "When did you know each other?"

Lu Xuanjing's heart trembled, and she remembered what happened in the canyon outside Feihong City.

She tried to keep herself calm, but the more she did so, the harder it was to calm down.

Seeing that she didn't answer and her breath was a little disordered, Jian Qiulu immediately realized that the matter was not simple, and immediately frowned and asked: "Tell me, when did you know each other!"

Lu Xuanjing took a deep breath and replied: "Ten years ago, when the Hundred Thousand Mountains No Return Realm was opened."

Jian Qiulu stared at her and said lightly: "What happened between you and him?"

Lu Xuanjing was silent, she didn't know how to answer, how to answer.

This time it was Jian Qiulu's turn, her heart skipped a beat, she immediately thought of a possibility, and grabbed Lu Xuanjing's left hand.

What made her desperate was that Lu Xuanjing's reaction was very strong, struggling hard while pushing her hand to prevent her from lifting her sleeves.

But Lu Xuanjing was only in the middle stage of the Xuan Emperor after all, in terms of strength, how could she be the opponent of the second elder?

In the end, the sleeve was pulled open, revealing a white wrist as smooth as jade.

Jian Qiulu's eyes widened, and her voice was trembling. It was unclear whether she was angry or frightened.

"Xuanjing, where is your chastity?"

Lu Xuanjing stopped struggling. She lowered her head and remained silent.

Jian Qiulu was furious. She raised her hand and slapped Lu Xuanjing's tender cheek.

At the last moment, Jian Qiulu stopped, and her palm stopped half an inch away from Lu Xuanjing's cheek because she couldn't bear to hit her.

She asked in a trembling voice: "Is it Li Guanhai!"

Lu Xuanjing remained silent, which was considered as tacit agreement.

Elder Jian laughed in anger: "No wonder, no wonder he came from afar to save our Dihuang Palace. I thought he was selfless, but I didn't expect that he came for his sweetheart!" She pointed at Lu Xuanjing and continued: "You, you, the saints of our Dihuang Palace have always been pure and chaste, and never married. You...what can I say about you!" Lu Xuanjing said weakly: "Second Elder, I'm sorry." "I'm sorry? Can a simple sorry solve the problem?" Jian Qiulu looked very excited, pacing back and forth, and suddenly asked: "Xuanjing, tell me the truth, was it Li Guanhai who forced you!" Lu Xuanjing stopped talking again. Jian Qiulu was shocked: "Did you take the initiative?"

Lu Xuanjing was also shocked and hurriedly denied: "No, I didn't."

"Then he forced you!" Jian Qiulu was furious and gnashed her teeth: "Li Guanhai, you are a shameless person with a beast in human form, a beast in human clothing, you have taken away the innocence of the Saint of the Emperor Palace, what crime should you be punished for!"

Lu Xuanjing was afraid that she would go to Li Guanhai for trouble, and hurriedly dissuaded her: "Second Elder, you must not go to him."

Jian Qiulu frowned: "Why, are you worried? Humph, you turned your elbow outward so quickly, it's true that a girl can't be spared when she grows up!"

Lu Xuanjing didn't explain. In fact, she was not worried about Li Guanhai, but Jian Qiulu.

Li Guanhai was surrounded by many masters. Let alone others, the thug in the quasi-god realm was not something Jian Qiulu could deal with.
