章節 23: Cen Li's Pursuit (2)
編輯: EndlessFantasy Translation
Who could make Cen Li chase after a person like this?
For the first time in his life, the sixth elder of the Sky Cloud Sect, Fei Ying, had a question that was more perplexing than "what to eat today."
No, he had to go and ask Lin Qing. This kid had been here for so many days, so he must have found out.
Fei Ying flicked his sleeves and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
…
The crowd had long dispersed, leaving only a ground full of wolves. On the ground, the broken life fruit, which was flowing with juice, was covered by a shadow.
The tortoiseshell in Lin Qing's hand trembled a few times before shattering.
It was a pity that the life fruit could no longer be used. Ever since that 'hot bath', Lin Qing had recovered for a few days, and the turtle trigram in his hand had found the life fruit's movement.
After going around in circles, he did not expect that when he found it, he could only watch as the life fruit fell to the ground. He stared in the direction where Chen Muxue and the others had gone.
'Why does it always have to do with her?'
…
Fei Ying followed the talisman's guidance all the way to the inn. He was really angry when he saw the disciples sleeping soundly.
"How's your sleep?" he whispered into one of their ears.
"Mm~ life without a master is so good!" The man stretched lazily, turned over, and planned to continue sleeping.
"Oh, really? How good is it?"
"It's so good! Master, that old monster, not only does he only know how to find food all day, but he also has to set a timetable. We get up earlier than chickens. Sigh, it would be good if we could live a little longer now!" the man mumbled with his eyes closed.
'Wait a minute, why does this voice sound so familiar?'
The man suddenly opened his eyes and saw his master's face magnified countless times in front of him. He felt his heart stop a few times.
He quickly closed his eyes and thought, 'That was close! How could I have such a terrifying dream?'
"Ouch! Master, I'm sorry!"
Fei Ying picked the man up by his ear. "Where's your eldest senior brother?"
"Senior Brother said he had a clue to the life fruit a few days ago. He went out and never came back."
Fei Ying felt the veins on his head popping. "So you guys have been sleeping here all this time. Why don't you go look for your eldest senior brother or gather some information?"
"Eldest Senior Brother didn't give any instructions."
"I even left the tracking talisman with you. Why didn't you let me know?!"
The disciples who had woken up upon hearing the commotion gathered here. Everyone lowered their heads silently like quails.
'This is my own disciple, my own disciple,' Fei Ying silently chanted the incantation of a calm heart in his heart.
…
Meanwhile, the restaurant didn't have many customers. The greasy chef and the manager sat together and bragged.
"This time, that so-called sect master of the lousy Heavenly Cauldron Sect won't have an easy time, right?" The head chef chuckled.
A dark light flashed in the manager's eyes, and he sneered, "Why don't you take a look at why we're the only restaurant in town!"
"A mere Foundation Building cultivator dares to announce her family name everywhere? Back then, the Heavenly Cauldron sect was nothing, but now? I'm dying of laughter."
The manager's face was full of malice as he took a small sip. "It was so chaotic outside just now, so the Hidden Forest hermit might have already taught them a lesson. Hurry, go and prepare some good wine and food to entertain him. The boss will be happy."
The greasy chef stood up. "That little girl thinks she's so great just because she's a cultivator. It's a pity that I can't go and see how the hermit from the Hidden Forest takes care of her!"
"It can't be worse than how she treated our people last time. The boss was so angry when he heard about it."
The head chef revealed a wretched smile. "That girl is quite good-looking. Maybe the Hidden Forest hermit will be charmed by her."
The two of them wanted to continue talking, but suddenly, there was a commotion in the hall.
