After hearing this, Cheng Ling suddenly felt that her efforts were worthwhile.
"By the way, isn't Shen Yu here? Isn't she here?"
Lu Qing looked around, and there was no trace of Shen Yu in the office.
There were only two water cups; the cushioned chairs in the office bore no marks from where anyone had sat; the balcony door was tightly closed, and no one was visible outside...
Cheng Ling was stunned for a moment, and said: "Senior Shen, he is upstairs..."
Lu Qing was also stunned, and then said: "Then I'll go take a look."
Then, Lu Qing came to the fourth floor.
On the fourth floor, the room was dim, with only the decorative strips on the ceiling emitting a faint light.
On one of the three beds, bedding was piled up layer by layer, and a head with disheveled hair was exposed.
It was Shen Yu.
"Ah, Master, you're here?"
Shen Yu squirmed, raised his head, and said hello.
Dejected.
"..." Lu Qing paused, then continued, "It's strange, but when Jiang Ningyan returned to the mountain, she discovered her clothes were missing. I was wondering if there was something wrong with my magic, and I accidentally left the clothes somewhere... Do you have any ideas?"
Shen Yu got up from the quilt, grabbed the heavy robe next to him and wrapped it around him, standing straight.
Then, Shen Yu shook his head and said seriously: "I don't know."
"Oh." Lu Qing nodded.
"Sect Master, why are you here?"
"Things have changed outside." Lu Qing said, "The Xingyangzhou Dragon Palace has sent out invitations to see dragons. The Immortal Alliance has organized over 2,000 cultivators to investigate, but all contact has been lost. The Immortal Alliance has asked our sect for help..."
"Master! I am just a weak woman, powerless and not good at fighting..."
"I didn't intend to let you go."
"...I'm still seasick...huh?"
Shen Yu was stunned and stared at Lu Qing.
Lu Qing also stared at Shen Yu.
After a while, Shen Yu added: "Sister Yan'er is also seasick."
Then, the two continued to stare at each other.
Finally, it was Lu Qing who spoke up: "I plan to ask Chengying to help me with some advice. You can come down and listen, maybe you can give me some advice."
"I see."
Shen Yu casually pinched out a ball of emerald green water, pasted it on her face, and summoned a gust of wind to blow her hair into shape. She flung it and rolled it up. Then, a ribbon flew out from the pile of clothes on the bed and tied her hair up.
The water ball dissipated, and Shen Yu's face became clean and refreshed.
In three seconds, Shen Yu did what a mortal woman could do in at least a quarter of an hour.
"Then go down."
Shen Yu followed Lu Qing and walked downstairs.
When he reached the stairs, Shen Yu suddenly said, "Master, I am actually very smart. Back then, I made plans and brought down a very powerful evil cultivator! Well...well, I usually learn things very quickly..."
Lu Qing looked back at Shen Yu.
So Shen Yu shut up and followed him downstairs obediently.
On the third floor, Chengying was already standing in front of the desk, dressed neatly.
I don’t know if he was woken up by Cheng Ling or if he sensed the noise and woke up on his own.
Lu Qing went straight to the point and explained the current situation directly.
Chengying was already thinking while listening.
After Lu Qing finished speaking, Chengying had a preliminary idea.
"Master, if the Dragon Palace's problems have become serious enough to threaten the entire Three States, then we should gather the power of the entire Immortal Alliance and establish a new power system to deal with the Dragon Palace."
"If it's still early, then Chengying feels that the Sect Master should step in and use an iron fist to integrate the Immortal Alliance."
"If the threat is minor, then no matter if it's imminent or there's time to buffer it, our sect shouldn't get involved in this mess."
"The Sect Master's kindness will only become a tool for the Immortal Alliance to fight for power and profit."
"Master, you felt sorry for them and offered assistance, but I'm afraid these cultivators from the Immortal Alliance won't remember your kindness. They didn't pay any price, just spoke. In their eyes, they might silently treat our sect as cannon fodder. In the future, they will most likely intensify their efforts."
Chengying finished speaking and added, "Of course, I am assuming the worst case scenario."
After listening to this, Shen Yu nodded and said, "Aying and I have the same opinion!"
Lu Qing sighed and said, "That's true. It's a pity that those more than 2,000 cultivators..."
"The Sect Master cares about the people, Chengying admires him."
"admiration!"
Lu Qing smiled and shook his head: "That's not the case."
Cheng Ling instantly felt that Sect Master Lu was even more dazzling.
Cheng Ying continued, "If the sect has made up its mind, then I suggest that the sect leader leave the Immortal Alliance alone and adopt a high-profile stance, so that the Immortal Alliance will know that our sect is not a small family that can be manipulated by them."
"This is not difficult."
Lu Qing nodded.
Originally, Lu Qing thought that helping out in this matter wouldn't have any impact, but after listening to Chengying's analysis, Lu Qing felt that it made sense. He had previously lacked some consideration.
"Master, do you need me to go with you?" Chengying asked again.
"That's not necessary." Lu Qing said, "None of the Void Cultivators ever came back. If you go, I'm afraid I won't be able to protect you."
Shen Yu suddenly became nervous.
Lu Qing looked at her and said helplessly: "You too."
Shen Yu's nervousness instantly turned into worry about Lu Qing and the world.
Cheng Ying frowned and said, "Master, if the Dragon Palace is already posing such a high threat, then what I said before may not be so valuable. We should be more cautious about this matter."
