After a whole day of rest, Gu Qingze and Chu Lingxiao set out together for the cave of Fairy Bingling, wanting to seek her help.
This was also a helpless move. The two of them were just ordinary disciples and usually had no chance to come into contact with the elders of Qingyun Sect.
However, Fairy Bingling is different. She has a wide network of contacts, and since she needs their help, she should be able to help them.
As a result, as soon as they arrived at the mountain where Fairy Bingling lived, they saw a group of disciples who admired her gathered outside her cave.
No way, do you love Fairy Bingling so deeply?
If I remember correctly, Fairy Bingling should be in seclusion now. Why are there so many disciples here? Aren't you practicing?
"Qingze, what should we do now?"
Chu Lingxiao gently tugged at the corner of his clothes, a hint of uneasiness on his face.
"Ling Xiao, you're not suffering from social anxiety, are you?"
"What does social anxiety mean?"
“When I’m in a situation with a lot of people, I feel terrified.”
Gu Qingze explained, but he was still confused, because Ling Xiao was not usually like this. The previous sword-fighting conference and the time when he went to the secret realm to gather were also crowded with people... Could it be that there was something different about this occasion?
"I'm not sure if my situation qualifies as such, because it does fit the description of being afraid of certain groups of people."
Chu Lingxiao looked at the disciples and explained.
"There are so many suitors out there who admire that woman. If they see us go in later, they'll be showing mercy by not hacking us into pieces. This move will really incite hatred. I'm worried that if we leave, we'll be... Is this considered 'social phobia'?"
Gu Qingze shook his head. This was a reasonable inference and had nothing to do with "social phobia".
He still remembered the first time he met Fairy Bingling. When she took the initiative to talk to him, the murderous intent of the disciples around her was so terrifying.
"How about we send a sound transmission note to Fairy Bingling? It's too risky to meet her directly."
Gu Qingze suggested.
"Makes sense, let's go."
Chu Lingxiao nodded. They came to find Fairy Bingling because they thought she was in seclusion and her admirers might not be around. Now that the first plan couldn't be implemented, they would try the second plan.
Unexpectedly, just as they turned around and wanted to leave, they were stopped by a cold voice.
"Junior Brother Gu? Is that you?"
Gu Qingze looked around but did not see the figure of Fairy Bingling.
"Don't look for me anymore. I used the Thousand Mile Sound Transmission Note to secretly send this to you two. I'm not here myself. There are too many people here. Go find me on Wuxiang Cliff on Luoying Peak."
"Ling Xiao, do you know where the Luoying Peak she mentioned is?"
Gu Qingze looked at Chu Lingxiao with an inquiring look. He knew more about Qingyun Sect than he did, so maybe he would know.
"I do know, but as far as I know, Luoying Peak is an abandoned peak. How could she be there? Also, if she was so far away, how would she know we were near her cave?"
"I don't know either. It seems all these questions can only be answered after we find her. Let's go."
Gu Qingze said seriously, then breathed a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, Fairy Bingling herself was not here. If she had been here just now and called them both, all her admirers would have seen it, and the feud between him and Ling Xiao would have been a foregone conclusion.
