Chapter 9: My Fiancee is Gone
No matter what Yue Qiran was thinking, they all came to the lobby.
At this time, the sect leader was already sitting there, looking very depressed.
This was her first time dining at the same table with them, but she didn't see Mr. Han, so she naturally asked another question.
Unexpectedly, the sect leader slammed the table and said angrily: "He is just an evil disciple, young lady, you don't have to worry about him."
Such a big reaction surprised her. Xi Jing hesitated to speak, and finally explained angrily, "Big Brother is a jerk. He's been messing around with other women everywhere. He recently fell for a decent girl. How could this not make Master angry?"
At this point, she paused for a moment, then couldn't help but add, "With his appearance, he deserves it!"
Zhao Xue looked at Yue Qiran thoughtfully and nodded.
Yue Qiran's hair stood on end when she saw him. Could it be that the good girl was her? If so, then it would be troublesome. She was just a useless person now. How could she fight against a cultivator?
"This Immortal Master..."
Before she could even utter her request to leave the mountain, the sect leader interrupted her: "I'm not worthy of being an immortal master. I'm just an ordinary person. My last name is Wen, so you can just call me Grandpa Wen."
Xi Jing also nodded repeatedly: "Yes, last time my sister called Master the Sect Leader, Xi Jing almost didn't react."
She took advantage of this opportunity to test him, "Master, you are truly modest. Regardless of anything else, the symbols on the door alone are quite magical, and it's beyond the reach of ordinary people like us."
Sect Master Wen sighed, his voice unconsciously lowered. "There are often chaotic noises coming out of Xujia City. How can you sleep if you are not proficient in soundproofing? This is all I can do."
All the doubts seem to have reasonable explanations, and if there are none, it’s not a big deal.
Yue Qiran's expression softened slightly, and there was a hint of emotion in her expression - she had really been judging others by her own standards.
But she hadn't thought it through before. What was wrong with an ordinary small sect using soundproofing? In a safe area, without enemies, all she needed to do was sleep peacefully, not worry about whether someone would break in.
Today's meal was the most satisfying one she had had in the past few days, but it did not change her desire to leave as soon as possible.
Just as he put down his chopsticks and before he could speak again, a shadow appeared at the door.
She looked back and saw a man standing with his back to them. He was wearing colorful clothes, holding a rope with peaches strung together in his hand, and a bunch of feathers plucked from a rooster's tail was tied around his waist.
He took small steps back into the lobby, the rooster feathers on his waist flying straight towards them, his hands and head still twisting in time with his steps, and from time to time a fragile peach fell from the swinging rope.
With a snap, the chopsticks in Xi Jing's hand fell down, and her expression was very interesting. There was anger in her astonishment, and a bit of disgust in her anger.
Zhao Xue wanted to look away but hesitated. In his peripheral vision, he saw his master taking deep breaths.
As for the new girl, he kept repeating in his mind "Don't look at anything inappropriate". He didn't know how many times he repeated it before he finally forced himself to look away and turned to look at her.
There was no expression on her face, but he could clearly see her helplessness and confusion.
Poor girl, she must have been scared.
At this moment, the man turned around, pinched his throat and said, "Master, I come to apologize, hope..."
He met Yue Qiran's eyes blankly.
It's over.
My fiancée is gone.
