After returning to Qingyun Sect, Gu Qingze and Chu Lingxiao did not rush to the Mission Hall to submit their tasks.
After all, they had previously agreed to imprison the ghost cultivator for seven days and then release him to execute him. If they submitted the mission now, wouldn't that give the ghost cultivator an advantage?
So, the two of them flew straight towards Cangjian Peak on their swords.
When they arrived at Cangjian Peak, they were surprised to find that their senior brother Lu Xingchen was on the peak and was not out on a mission.
However, when Lu Xingchen saw them return, his expression seemed a little complicated for some reason.
As if he was greeting someone, he slowly said, "Junior Brother Gu, Junior Brother Chu, have you returned from your mission?"
Gu Qingze and Chu Lingxiao nodded slightly and replied, "Yeah."
Lu Xingchen seemed to be choosing his words carefully, and after a moment he spoke again, "Junior Brother Gu, during your absence, Senior Sister Bingling came to Cangjian Peak many times looking for you. If you have nothing else to do, go check on her. She looks so anxious, it seems like she has something extremely urgent to tell you."
"Is that so... Well, thank you, Senior Brother Lu, for letting me know. I'll be there right away. Oh, by the way, we're going to Senior Sister Bingling's residence to look for her, right?"
"I'm not sure either." Lu Xingchen shook his head. "Every time she couldn't find you, she would just leave without talking to me."
"Hmm... Then Ling Xiao and I will go to her residence and try our luck. Senior Brother Lu, we can talk later when we have time. We'll take our leave now."
After Gu Qingze and Chu Lingxiao finished talking, they flew away on their swords again.
They were flying on their swords halfway, and they looked at each other subconsciously, and then couldn't help but smile helplessly.
Gu Qingze said softly: "I guess it's not a good thing for Senior Brother Bingling to come to me..."
Chu Lingxiao agreed with his guess: "Well, although I haven't met him in person yet, if it's good news, I want to inform you, but since you're not here, there's no need to come to you again and again."
When they flew on their swords to the mountain where Senior Sister Bingling lived, they saw that the entire mountain was surrounded by disciples as usual.
Senior Brother Bingling...it turns out that your popularity is still so high.
Gu Qingze sighed inwardly.
He was just about to find a random disciple to ask about the situation when he heard Chu Lingxiao say, "Let's go, Senior Brother Bingling...he's not here."
Gu Qingze was stunned for a moment after hearing this, then nodded: "Since you are not here, let's go."
"But...should we go back to Hidden Sword Peak, or continue searching?"
Chu Lingxiao smiled and said jokingly, "Keep looking? Does Qingze know where Senior Brother Bingling often goes?"
Gu Qingze shook his head: "I don't understand."
He seemed to have received a satisfactory answer: "Since you don't understand, how can you continue to look for it?"
"If we want to check them one by one... Qingyun Sect is so large, it would take at least ten days or half a month to check them all. Plus, Senior Brother Bingling is a living being and will move around at irregular intervals, which makes the investigation even more difficult."
"So...it's better to go back to Cangjian Peak and wait. Didn't Senior Brother Lu say that? Senior Brother Bingling has come to you quite often. Instead of going through all the trouble to check, it's better to wait at Cangjian Peak. The chances of running into him will be higher."
"After all, he's in need of help now, so he'll definitely come to you if he wants to."
Chu Lingxiao said, patting his shoulder: "Let's go back to Hidden Sword Peak. This trip will be in vain."
Gu Qingze nodded, and just as they were about to leave, they saw a figure approaching quickly from afar.
The figure rode on his flying pet, and soon, the figure came to their side.
This person is Luo Shan Bingling.
As he approached, his suitors also turned their eyes to him, each of their eyes filled with passion and desire, and they couldn't wait to rush over to him.
Gu Qingze thought to himself that this was bad. If he was invited by Senior Brother Bing Ling in front of so many people under such circumstances, he would probably be targeted by Senior Brother Bing Ling's other suitors and gossip about them.
Fortunately, Fairy Bingling still had some sense and just walked past them.
At that moment, he used his spiritual power to transmit a message: "Meet at noon tomorrow at the old place, the abandoned mountain peak."
He only conveyed this one message, and did not make any eye contact with Gu Qingze and Chu Lingxiao throughout the whole process, as if he had not seen them at all and passed them over as if they were air.
Maybe he didn't want to cause them trouble because of his own reasons.
Seeing Senior Brother Bingling's cold reaction, his admirers were satisfied and withdrew their gazes from Gu Qingze and Chu Lingxiao, and became friendlier towards them.
"I have to admit that Senior Brother Bing Ling is doing the right thing. His suitors are too crazy. We can't allow Senior Brother Bing Ling to have any interaction with others, just like..."
Gu Qingze used his spiritual power to transmit a message to Chu Lingxiao, but he stopped talking halfway through.
Chu Lingxiao looked at him puzzledly: "Just like what? Don't stop talking halfway?"
Gu Qingze stopped there: "Forget it, it's nothing. Ling Xiao won't understand even if I tell him."
Is this something from Qingze's original world?
Chu Lingxiao understood the deeper meaning of his words, and a nameless fire was burning in his heart.
He also wanted to experience what the world that Qingze lived in before was like... He wanted to have more common topics with Qingze... instead of seeing Qingze hesitant to speak.
"Since we have already made an agreement with him, let's go back to Hidden Sword Peak now."
Seeing that he was in a daze, Gu Qingze patted his shoulder and reminded him.
Chu Lingxiao came back to his senses and nodded: "Okay."
Afterwards, they flew away on their swords.
