Chapter 157: Going Down the Mountain to Train and Leave the Master
"What are your plans?" Long Qi asked Xinyi, who was also packing her things behind him, while packing his things.
Upon hearing this, Xinyi paused, then shook her head.
He was going down the mountain tomorrow, but he really didn't know where to go. Now, besides Maidong, his only concern was his mother.
But there has been no news since Bai Wuchang summoned him last time, and from what Lingxiang said, it seems that the Demon Lord should know that he has betrayed him.
Long Qi turned to look at the lost Xin Yi, and he knew what he was thinking. He quickly said, "Why don't we go to the City Lord's Mansion with Wu Yang first? He needs to go out and gain experience anyway, so why not go together, so we can look after each other?"
Xin Yi was startled when she heard this. Long Qi seemed to have a hidden meaning in his words. Could it be...
"you mean?"
Long Qi put down what he was holding, frowned, and sat down.
Yesterday, out of curiosity, I quietly followed Lingxiang, but unexpectedly I heard about A'lu.
Of course he didn't know who A'qu was, but Lingxiang was so anxious, giving him warnings and instructions. It was obvious that she was thinking about Wuyang and was afraid that something would be exposed.
Since it's for Wuyang's own good, why don't they come along so that Wuyang can be brought out as soon as possible?
After hearing what Long Qi said, Xinyi frowned and sat down.
He knew about A'er's affairs. After Lingxiang took him to the City Lord's Mansion that day, she told him everything about Madam Qiao. Since Madam Qiao had such plans, she must have seen something. If for no other reason, then for her own safety, she should indeed go with him.
All parents in the world love each other. When Xinyi thought of Mrs. Qiao, she thought of her own mother.
I don’t know if my mother is doing well now.
…
It was called a farewell party, but in fact it was just a simple kowtow and farewell, and then the disciples went down the mountain, either alone or in groups.
In the past few months, Zhao Wuyang has grown a lot taller, and he has completely lost the softness he had when he first arrived at the sect. Although he is thin now, his eyebrows and eyes have opened up, as if he has grown up, and he even seems to have some heroic spirit, but there is still some cuteness in his words.
Looking at the three people walking away arm in arm, Lingxiang couldn't help but sigh in her heart. At this moment, she heard Ajin talking at the side:
"He will eventually grow up, so there's really no need to make arrangements for him like this."
Lingxiang smiled when she heard this and said, "You promised Mrs. Qiao that you would take good care of him. Why don't you come with him?" Then she turned and looked at Ajin.
The sunlight shone on his shiny black hair, and his golden eyes seemed like gold and stone, staring at Wu Yang who was walking away motionlessly.
"Although I would bully Wuyang on a daily basis, I do treat him as a younger brother. Madam Qiao has done me a favor. Since this is her last concern, I naturally have to take good care of her and make good on her trust, right?"
Lingxiang said this and turned to look at the backs of the three people. Long Qi was putting his arm around Zhao Wuyang's back and was laughing wildly while saying something. Xinyi seemed not to want to know him and walked a few steps away from him without saying a word.
"Everyone has his own destiny. Even if you cover up for A'qu, Wuyang will find out one day." Ajin said, turned into a cat, and followed the three people leisurely.
But Lingxiang smiled when she saw him like this.
Yes, you will find out one day, but you don’t understand people’s hearts.
The human heart is such a complicated thing. When you don't understand it, you can squander other people's care recklessly, but once you understand it, you will no longer be as carefree as before.
The human heart is so difficult to understand. If you understood it, you would not stay in this world for too long.
I just hope that Wuyang can be your final destination, and that he is the person who can end your cycle.
…
Zhao Wuyang didn't expect that Long Qi and Xin Yi would go to the City Lord's Mansion with him. It wasn't that he didn't want to, but he was just very surprised.
Long Qi is fine, but Xin Yiwan is not the kind of person who would take the initiative to make requests. Could it be that the two of them have nowhere else to go?
He suddenly remembered what happened in the Bamboo Garden. To be honest, the two of them could be said to be alone now. In this case, it seemed that his mother must treat them well and make them feel at home.
I just didn't know where to go to gain experience after bidding farewell to my parents. I think my two brothers took this into consideration and wanted to take better care of me, so they made such a request.
Zhao Wuyang had already made up his mind, and he felt that he had to treat Long Qi and Xin Yi well, so that they would not be in vain for thinking so much about him.
In front of the City Lord's Mansion, the guards saw Zhao Wuyang and ran into the mansion one after another, shouting as they ran:
"The Young City Lord is back! The Young City Lord is back!"
In a short while, the city lord and his wife ran out of the mansion together.
Zhao Wuyang hurriedly stepped forward to support the city lord's wife. When the city lord's wife saw Zhao Wuyang, her eyes immediately turned red. She held Zhao Wuyang's hand but could not say a word.
Seeing his wife like this, City Lord Zhao's eyes were slightly red, but he smiled and joked:
"How can a son come back and stand at the door? If outsiders see him, they will think he hasn't seen him for years."
Upon hearing this, the City Lord's wife quickly wiped her tears, said yes, and pulled Wuyang into the house. However, Zhao Wuyang gently patted his mother's hand and then introduced Long Qi and Xinyi.
The city lord's wife was stunned when she saw Xinyi, but when she saw him shake his head slightly, she immediately understood what he meant, and then she invited a few people into the mansion without leaving any trace.
Late that night, when everyone was fast asleep, the city lord's wife left the room alone and tiptoed towards the mansion garden. Waiting there were Xin Yi and Long Qi.
The City Lord's wife was shocked when she saw Long Qi, but Xinyi raised her hand and said, "Long Qi is an insider. There's no need to panic."
Hearing this, the City Lord's wife bowed, but Long Qi hurriedly stopped her, and then saluted her together with Xin Yi.
Seeing the two of them like this, the City Lord's wife was very confused, but then she heard Xinyi say, "Just as Lingxiang said, you are now the City Lord's wife, and the City Lord's wife is you. The two of us are brothers with Wuyang, and you are Wuyang's mother. There is absolutely no reason for an elder to greet a younger person."
"Yes," Long Qi said, "If you want to hide it, you must be so firm in your identity."
Upon hearing this, the city lord's wife's eyes turned red and she nodded with tears in her eyes.
These days, she really thought of herself as the city lord's wife. If Adao hadn't come to inform her, she would have almost forgotten her original identity.
But she couldn't tell whether she was doing this because of Mrs. Qiao's dying request or because...
Or is it because I fell in love with City Lord Zhao...
I fell in love with City Lord Zhao, a devoted man...
However, this love, however, is in the guise of Mrs. Qiao, and she falls deeper and deeper into it, unable to extricate herself...
