Cen Jun returned to the window and said, "Brother, Master, I'll meet you at the door!"
Fan Zhiyi looked at Bing Nandong, who turned his face away, looking very reluctant to be seen by the people on the second floor. Fan Zhiyi asked considerately, "Are you waiting for me downstairs?"
Bing Nandong turned his head to look at him: "Why don't you just take Mr. Cen with you?"
As they were talking, Cen Jun arrived at the door of the teahouse and ran towards them: "Brother, Master, let's go up first."
It seemed that Mr. Cen knew those two people. Fan Zhiyi couldn't help but ask, "Who are they?"
Cen Jun's back tensed, and he glanced at Bing Nandong with a guilty look. Bing Nandong turned his gaze to him, with a forced smile: "Master is asking you."
Cen Jun lowered his head and said, "Master, it's the eldest young master of Jiuwanli and Senior Brother He An."
Jiuwanli? Was it the name of a sect? For Fan Zhiyi, this was a new word he had heard since entering this world. He didn't know what it was, but he didn't want anyone to explain it to him.
The next second, Cen Jun immediately explained to Bing Nandong, "Brother, I didn't hide this from you on purpose. It's just that I happened to meet Master Zhuang and Brother He again. They were also looking for you and brother, so I... because Lin promised to fulfill a wish for this mission, my chances of success were slim, so I made an appointment with Master Zhuang. I originally wanted to find Sister Xu, but Sister Xu had other missions and she thought that Jiuwanli and Tianyunmen were not on good terms, so..."
"Is this why you don't want me and Master to follow you?" Bing Nandong's voice was cold.
Cen Jun dared not hide anything and confessed everything honestly: "Well, we originally agreed to meet in the next town, but Master Zhuang said through voice transmission that they were running fast and wanted to meet up earlier, so we came here, and then we ran into each other..."
Fan Zhiyi felt that the pressure on Bing Nandong had dropped even lower. He seemed to have understood what he meant. The two sects were not in harmony, so Bing Nandong was so angry when he was caught. So he came out to rescue him and said, "Mr. Cen also wants to find his brother. What happened before is not important. What matters is what to do next?" I'm afraid they can't go all the way with this relationship.
Bing Nandong asked, "You told Zhuang Yujing about my appearance at Tianyunmen, right?"
Cen Jun stammered, "Hmm," and then immediately said, "Brother, don't be angry! I only said that I found you, but I didn't say anything else, nor did I mention that you and Master had been following me this time."
Bing Nandong remained silent, so Cen Jun looked at Fan Zhiyi and said, "Master, Young Master Zhuang has a lot of spirit stones. I told him that we don't have any spirit stones left for a hotel, and he said he would cover all the remaining expenses for the trip."
"Do you think that I am a teacher who doesn't consider the feelings of my apprentice just for a few spirit stones?" Fan Zhiyi didn't know what Cen Jun was thinking, so he wanted him to coax Bing Nandong.
The next second, Fan Zhiyi looked at Bing Nandong eagerly: "Nandong, if the five of us travel together, we won't have to suffer from hunger and cold later."
Bing Nandong stared at Fan Zhiyi, staring until the smile on his face froze. Then Bing Nandong smiled at him and said, "Master has already practiced fasting. Besides, the weather is so hot, how could he be cold?"
Fan Zhiyi: "..." He saw Bing Nandong's face was still gloomy after he finished speaking. He seemed to be really reluctant to contact Jiuwanli's people. Finally, he sighed and made up his mind, "Then Mr. Cen, you go with them. Your senior brother and I will go to the mission location to wait for you."
This was the only solution Fan Zhiyi could come up with that would satisfy both parties. At most, he would just say so, but he would then drag Bing Nandong along to follow Cen Jun. After learning from the previous lesson, they would surely not be discovered again.
Who knew that at this time, because they still couldn't come up, Master Zhuang became impatient, and he met Bing Nandong again. He was anxious for Bing Nandong to run away again, so he came downstairs himself. Seeing the three people standing outside, he was about to say something to Bing Nandong, but he stumbled across Fan Zhiyi and asked in surprise: "You are not blind?" Then he looked at Bing Nandong and said, "Are you really blind?"
Fan Zhiyi and Bing Nandong: "..."
He An, maintaining a calm smile, stepped forward and pulled his young master back. Looking at the cinnabar between Fan Zhiyi's eyebrows, he thought of what Cen Jun had just called him, and bowed, "Greetings, Immortal Venerable."
Fan Zhiyi was puzzled: "Have we met before?"
"The Immortal Venerable's reputation is known throughout the entire world of immortal cultivation."
The young master next to him snorted coldly: "He is just a vain person, otherwise he would not have been bribed by Tianyun Sect."
Fan Zhiyi: “…”
He An smiled and whispered to Zhuang Yujing, "Master, I've told you many times that the atmosphere in the world of immortal cultivation is not good right now. You can't just say whatever you want outside."
"I was only doing this to the Tianyun Sect." Zhuang Yujing glared at Bing Nandong and took a few steps forward to interrogate him. "What's wrong with you? You disappeared for ten years without even a sound system. The Tianyun Sect said you and Fan Zhiyi were dead, but I didn't believe it. Now you're alive and well, aren't you? What's wrong with your eyes? Why did you end up performing on the streets? If you need spirit stones, just tell me and I'll give them to you. And why did you run away just now? You're blind now. What if something happens? I won't do anything to you. At most, I'll laugh at you. And where's Fan Zhiyi?"
He kept calling her "Fan Zhiyi" and "something else." He was terrified, feeling like he was being called out to someone strange. Also, don't make such light talk about ridicule. Just let it go. Someone as thin-skinned and proud as Bing Nandong couldn't stand it.
But the strange thing is that in the face of Zhuang Yujing's series of crackling, Bing Nandong remained silent.
Zhuang Yujing looked him up and down in surprise. "I'm asking you a question. How come, in ten years, you've not only gone blind, but also become mute?"
Bing Nandong still ignored him. He seemed to have finally realized that something was wrong with Bing Nandong. He pursed his lips, began to feel scared, slowed down his voice, and reached out to touch his forehead: "Hey, you are not stupid, what did Tianyunmen do to you?"
Bing Nandong turned his head away and slapped his hand away: "You are too noisy."
Fan Zhiyi thought that Bing Nandong was probably feeling bad again because he had heard Fan Zhiyi, so he tried to smooth things over and said, "Let's get on with our journey first, and talk while we walk." He was afraid that Bing Nandong would not agree, so he grabbed Bing Nandong's wrist to prevent him from slipping away again.
He An also agreed: "Let's go, hurry up and don't waste time."
A group of five people set off together, but no one spoke at the beginning. Zhuang Yujing glanced at Bing Nandong several times, wanting to say something, but finally held it back.
Cen Jun would also look at Bing Nandong from time to time, and then whisper to Fan Zhiyi: "Master, Master, is Senior Brother angry with me again? Will he never forgive me this time?"
"It's okay, your brother's anger comes and goes quickly."
Fan Zhiyi could only offer such comfort, and then he saw Zhuang Yujing go to Bing Nandong: "So, Bing Nandong, what happened in the past ten years? You showed up, but where's Fan Zhiyi?"
