He wasn't looking at Lu Qingyan, yet she felt as if he was watching her. For a moment, she didn't dare to move.
Lu Qingyan really wanted to bang her head against a wall. This Daoist Changling was definitely not in the same league as Daoist Sanyang. She had already struggled to deal with Daoist Sanyang at the beginning, and now she had to add Daoist Changling to the mix. Why didn't she have a single helper by her side?
Master Changling waved his hand: "You should go and rest first. I need to meditate for a while longer."
Master Sanyang glanced at Master Changling before stepping down, saying, "This disciple takes his leave."
After Master Sanyang had walked away, Master Changling put his hands behind his back and said to the locust tree not far away, "Come out."
For a moment, Lu Qingyan felt a chill run down her spine. Sure enough, her worries were justified; her whereabouts could not be hidden from this person at all.
To go out or not to go out, that is a question worth considering. Oh, no, it's a dilemma.
Lu Qingyan dawdled and didn't want to come out at all, but she was pulled over by a gesture from Daoist Changling. Daoist Changling frowned and looked at Lu Qingyan with dissatisfaction: "Why don't you just come out obediently? Why do I have to drag you out?"
Lu Qingyan was so angry she wanted to scratch the wall. This was not even in the same league. How could she possibly fight them?
They could make him disappear with a single move, and he would be powerless to resist.
"Daoist Master~" Lu Qingyan called out sweetly, raising her chin and looking at him pitifully: "Why must Daoist Master arrest me? I have stayed in this manor for so many years and have never harmed anyone. Even so, Daoist Master, can't you tolerate me?"
Master Changling frowned, then suddenly stuffed Lu Qingyan into a sack. At first, she staggered around, unsure of what was inside. Only when she reached the bottom did she realize that the place resembled a small room, complete with everything, and all exquisitely crafted.
"I know you haven't committed any sins, but this isn't the place for you. I will send you to a suitable place to help you reincarnate," Master Changling said dryly, neither trying to persuade her nor asking her any questions.
"Daoist Master, do I want to know my past? Aren't you curious about why I became like this? You cultivators often say that there is cause and effect, so why can't I get a result?" As Lu Qingyan spoke, large tears slid down her cheeks, and her slightly red eyes would soften anyone's heart.
However, Master Changling simply watched without offering a single word of comfort.
Instead, he went along with Lu Qingyan's words and said, "Then tell me about your past."
A gentle night breeze was blowing. At this point in Changling Daoist's life, whether he slept or not made little difference. There was nothing wrong with listening to Lu Qingyan tell stories from the past.
“When I was still raised by my mother’s side, what I disliked most was reading.” Lu Qingyan squinted her eyes as if recalling the past: “But my mother always said that girls should be educated, and forced me to read some books.”
Master Changling raised an eyebrow, somewhat surprised.
Nowadays, people say that a woman's virtue lies in her lack of talent, but I never expected that this girl's mother would actually require her to read some books.
Lu Qingyan frowned in distress: "If it were other books, it would be fine, but what my mother wants me to read are all poems, songs, romance, and even stories of talented men and beautiful women."
