Chapter 678 The Stupid Monster in the Group Pet Article (23)
[Huh? The task progress bar has increased again?] Su Yu was curious, [What is the male lead doing?]
System: [Killing monsters. 】
Su Yu: [……] I’m sick.
Another day passed, and Su Yu felt something was wrong when she woke up in the morning. She felt weak and powerless, her cheeks were hot, and her head was dizzy.
She's sick? A monster, sick?!
Su Yu got up and poured herself a cup of cold tea. After drinking it, she lay back down and fell into a deep sleep.
…
The outer gate of the Sword Sect is located south of Hongye Peak. The terrain is lower than that of the inner gate, but it covers a vast area, extending hundreds of miles to the south.
The closer to the inner gate, the richer the spiritual energy and the higher the cultivation level of the disciples. As for the outermost area, those living there are all low-ranking menial disciples.
Jiang Muxue didn't like Su Yu very much, but she did her best to save her face by arranging a decent place for her to live.
Xie Linguang was not dressed like an inner sect disciple. He was dressed in a dark casual suit, and his identity could not be identified. However, his aura was hard to conceal. He was extremely handsome, and just standing there made people feel that he was extraordinary, attracting the attention of passers-by.
Xie Linguang called a disciple and said, "Please stay."
The disciple who was called was stunned. Seeing Xie Linguang's extraordinary momentum, he quickly bowed and said with a bit of flattery: "Hello, Senior Brother. I wonder why you called me?"
Xie Linguang said calmly: "I want to ask you about someone."
The disciple was stunned again, his eyes rolled, and he dared to guess: "Brother, do you want to ask Miss Su?"
Seeing Xie Lingguang's surprise, he knew that he had guessed correctly, and he chuckled: "Brother, you don't know, there are many brothers and sisters who have come to see Miss Su in the past two days. Seeing that you have an extraordinary demeanor, I dared to make a guess."
"Why?"
The man said, "Of course, I am the same as Senior Brother. I want to see Miss Su and see what kind of woman Senior Brother Xie likes."
"Oh? You know that too?" Xie Linguang's tone was ambiguous.
The man was proud: "Of course, the whole inner sect has spread it. I am familiar with a senior brother in the inner sect. He saw Miss Su running out of Senior Brother Xie's room with his own eyes. Maybe the two of them have... ahem... talked a little too much. Senior Brother, please don't be offended."
He pointed in the direction: "Miss Su lives over there, in the fourth room, but she didn't go out today, so I'm afraid you won't be able to see her, so your trip would be in vain."
Xie Linguang had a calm expression, but he suddenly curled his lips and whispered, "So there are rumors like this out there?"
The person who answered the question felt strange. Could it be that he came here because of the rumors?
His friend couldn't stand it anymore, so he quickly stepped forward and pulled him away, cursing in a low voice: "Are you stupid?"
Although the people from the outer sect had never seen Xie Linguang, they had heard that he had a handsome appearance, liked to wear black clothes, had a natural red mole on his forehead, and had an outstanding demeanor.
If the person in front of him was not Xie Linguang, his name would be Li Saner written backwards.
"Stop." Xie Linguang suddenly called out to them.
Walking up to the two men, Xie Linguang glanced at them coldly, his sight fell on Li Saner, sword still unsheathed, he gently lifted the chalcedony at his waist.
"What's this?"
"This..." Li Saner was startled, sweat on his forehead, "Brother, I picked it up..."
"Picked it up?" Xie Linguang chuckled, "What a coincidence, the thing I gave to the girl I liked was picked up by you."
When Xie Linguang said the words "the girl I like", his voice became heavier, as if he was saying it with amusement.
Li Saner swallowed his saliva and forced a smile that was uglier than crying: "So it was Senior Brother Xie's thing. I didn't recognize it. I will return it to Senior Brother right away."
Xie Linguang was not surprised that he knew him.
"No need." A heart-thrilling sword energy flashed past, and Li Saner felt a chill on his waist. The jadeite was already in Xie Linguang's hand, "I'll take it myself."
Li Saner's legs felt cold, and he looked down. The white outer sect disciple uniform was cut smoothly at the thigh and fell to the ground, revealing a pair of trembling legs.
Li Saner couldn't help but kneel on the ground. He confessed everything without waiting for Xie Linguang to ask, "Brother, please spare me. Brother, please spare me. I borrowed this chalcedony from Miss Su. I will never dare to do it again."
"It turned out to be borrowed, not found."
The smile on Xie Linguang's lips made people feel cold in their hearts: "Since it's borrowed, why should I spare your life?"
Li Saner's forehead was covered with cold sweat and he didn't dare to speak.
Although he said it was borrowed, it was actually robbed, because he had no intention of returning it. Not only him, but many other disciples had borrowed things from Su Yu.
Who made her have no cultivation but parade around with all the treasures? If not her, who else should we rob?
Xie Linguang lowered his eyes and looked at him: "Don't say it?"
Li Saner was so scared that he fell to the ground: "I'll tell you! I'll tell you everything!"
He confessed all these things, and also the names of other people who had "borrowed" things from Su Yu, hoping to drag as many people into the water as possible.
Xie Linguang's eyes became colder and colder, and he wrote down the names of these people: "I will investigate this matter thoroughly."
"As for you." Xie Linguang looked at him as if he were a dead object. "You have low moral character, bully the weak, are full of lies, and disregard the sect's rules. The Sword Sect cannot tolerate such a disciple."
This means to expel him from the sect.
Li Saner was so frightened that his face turned pale: "Senior Brother..."
If he had known this, he shouldn't have spoken out.
No, he shouldn't have snatched Su Yu's things.
An ordinary person with no cultivation, yet he has so many magic weapons on him. It is obvious with a little thought that he has a backer behind him, but he still goes to provoke him. He is simply blinded by greed!
The person who was stopped by Xie Linguang at the beginning was trembling and couldn't speak out of shock. The person in front of him turned out to be Xie Linguang.
Xie Linguang glanced at them coldly and walked towards Su Yu's residence.
The disciples along the way gave way one after another, fearing to offend him, and whispered, "He is really as cruel and inhumane as the rumors say."
"Shh, whisper, you don't want to die!"
Xie Linguang heard it but his expression remained unchanged. He heard these words more often when he first started guarding the Demon Suppressing Tower.
When we arrived at Su Yu's residence, the door was closed.
Xie Linguang raised his hand and knocked gently on the door.
The neighbors on both sides popped their heads over to look over, and when they saw Xie Linguang, they quietly put away their curiosity. Lin Qing had gone down the mountain yesterday afternoon to accept a mission from the sect, so he was not there.
Hearing the noise, Su Yu raised her heavy eyelids, frowned and muttered a few words, then slowly stood up. However, she had no strength left and rolled to the ground with the quilt.
Can’t get up? Sleep a little longer.
Su Yu wrapped herself tightly in the quilt and did not go back to bed. She just lay on the ground and fell into a deep sleep.
Hearing the sound of something heavy falling to the ground, Xie Linguang frowned slightly and used his palm to push the door open.
As soon as he entered, the first thing that caught his eye was the empty bed. Before Xie Lingguang could wonder, he looked down and saw that the quilt rolled up like a caterpillar was slightly rising and falling, and the person inside was sleeping soundly.
Xie Linguang: “…”
It’s amazing that you can fall asleep like this.
