Inside the flying boat.
Ning Jing was looking at Xu Fuyi with an angry look on her face.
"It's fine if your friend has to follow us in this situation, but why do you have to follow us too?"
"Do you think I am willing to follow you? I am following fellow Daoist Su, okay? I see that fellow Daoist Su is helping take care of my friend and is very hard-working. If I follow her, I can help her share some of the burden, right?" After saying that, he turned around and gave Su Yao a flattering smile.
Su Yao smiled back politely, but Ning Jing couldn't help but get even angrier when she saw his two faces changing so freely.
"How come you have two faces? One in front of people and another behind their backs, right?"
"No, no, no, you misunderstood. I treat you one way and others another way!" After saying this, he pretended to touch his hair crown.
"You!" Ning Jing pointed at him angrily.
"What do you mean by 'you'? You're such a petty woman. I just saw that you were from the Western Continent, so I thought we could act together. It's better than you wandering around in the secret realm like a girl. But you ran away without even looking back after hearing what I said. I was worried about you, so I followed you all the time.
How could I have known that you would be trapped by the formation by such a coincidence? Besides, I was also trapped, and it caused Jing Yue to become like this. I have explained it to you so many times, and even said that I would apologize to you, but you didn’t want it. Anyway, I will explain it to you for the last time, and I can’t help it if you don’t believe me. " After saying this, Xu Fuyi's whole body drooped instantly.
Ning Jing was completely stunned by Xu Fuyi's retort. She stood there for a long time before she muttered, "I don't want to bother with you." Then she found a place to sit and meditate.
Seeing that she didn't say anything else, Xu Fuyi felt bored and shut up.
Su Yao found their bickering very interesting. She knew Ning Jing. If she hadn't figured it out in her mind, she would definitely not let Xu Fuyi go so easily.
The only person who didn't take care of things on the entire flying boat was Nalan Jingyue. This guy started to feel sleepy as soon as he got on the flying boat, so Su Yao took out a small bed and placed it inside the flying boat. He was very conscientious and climbed up by himself.
Along the way, the three of them discussed helping to nourish Nalan Jingyue's soul. Originally, they wanted to do it as soon as possible, but being in another continent and having experience outside, there were too many unknown dangers.
If the soul was disturbed and interrupted while being nourished, the consequences would be unpredictable, so they unanimously decided to wait until they returned to Xiaoyao Sect. As for why they didn't just go through Haoyue Sect and send them back.
Su Yao's explanation was that they had originally run away secretly and must have been known by the elders of the sect. In order to avoid worrying the elders, they decided to return to Xiaoyao Sect first, and then send a message to Haoyue Sect to ask someone to come and pick them up.
So Su Yao and the other person hurried back to report that they were safe, and Xu Fuyi hurried back to report the news. The three of them hurried on their way in tacit understanding, and did not stop to rest along the way. If they were tired, they would take turns driving the flying boat.
Only after returning to Luoxia City in the Western Continent did they finally breathe a sigh of relief. The first thing Xu Fuyi did after getting off the teleportation platform was to immediately send a letter to the sect, explaining Nalan Jingyue's situation in detail, and then followed Su Yao and the others to Xiaoyao Sect.
It's strange to say, along the way, Ning Jing and Xu Fuyi still quarreled from time to time, but Su Yao clearly felt that the two were no longer as confrontational as before.
He had a secret guess in his mind, but didn't say anything. He just kept it in his heart. If Ning Jing really had something on his mind, he would definitely tell her first.
The journey was peaceful, and it was already the second day when we safely returned to the foot of the sect's mountain.
Standing at the sect gate, Su Yao and Ning Jing felt like they were home for the first time. Before, they had always been with their senior brothers and sisters when they went out for training, so they rarely missed Xiaoyao Sect. But this time, they really felt that it was good to know that there was always a place waiting for them when they came back from training.
The disciple guarding the gate saw the two men return and immediately came forward to greet them with joy.
"Senior Sister Su, Senior Sister Ning, you are finally back."
Yes, this trip out for training, including the round trip and the time spent in the secret realm, took nearly three months.
"Yes, we are back!" Seeing the disciples guarding the gate happy, they couldn't help but feel happy too.
Suddenly I remembered something: "How have you been in these three months?"
As if knowing what Su Yao and the others wanted to ask, the gatekeeper disciple lowered his voice and said, "We are all fine, but the master has been in a bad mood recently."
Hearing this, Su Yao and the others didn't understand. They must still be unhappy about the two of them sneaking out. Thinking of this, the two of them couldn't help but feel weak.
The gatekeeper disciple saw the two men standing nearby and asked curiously, "Senior Sister, who are these two?"
"Oh, these two are Fellow Daoist Xu and Fellow Daoist Nalan from the Haoyue Sect. They are here as guests of the sect."
"Greetings, Senior Brother Xu and Senior Brother Nalan." The gatekeeper disciple respectfully performed the greeting.
Xu Fuyi bowed slightly in response.
The gatekeeper disciple seemed to have thought of something and looked at Su Yao and the others in surprise: "Haoyue Sect? Could it be...?"
Su Yao gave him an affirmative look. Yes, it's what you think.
"Ah! I'll go and inform the master right away." As he said this, he was about to run into the sect.
Su Yao quickly stopped him. "No need to pass on the message, we can just take them in ourselves."
The two of them thought to themselves at the same time: "You're kidding! If we come back now, we must show up when Uncle Gu and the others are not prepared. If they find out in advance, I don't know how they will criticize them. Since there are outsiders around, they won't say anything."
So the two of them flew to the sect's meeting hall with the people in a guilty conscience, and deliberately waited until they arrived at the meeting hall before they dared to use the sound transmission talisman to send a message to Gu Changfeng and the others. They simply said that they were back and were waiting in the meeting hall, and they did not forget to add a sentence at the end that Nalan Jingyue and Xu Fuyi from Haoyue Sect came to the sect as guests.
The implication is: "We are back, but there are outsiders here. You can't educate us in front of outsiders."
Not long after the sound transmission note was sent out, Gu Changfeng's figure immediately appeared outside the door of the meeting hall, and the four elders arrived one after another.
As soon as they stepped into the meeting hall, Gu Changfeng's sharp eyes swept over Su Yao and Ning Jing one after another. The two of them froze at the same time, and hurried forward to say with a sweet smile: "Master, we are back!"
But it was very awkward. Gu Changfeng ignored them and walked straight past them to sit in the main seat. Then he took out some tea from nowhere, took a sip, and looked at Nalan Jingyue and Xu Fuyi.
Xu Fuyi was very sensible and stepped forward to bow respectfully. "Greetings, Master Gu. I am Xu Fuyi, a disciple of the Haoyue Sect, and he is my fellow senior brother, Nalan Jingyue. I happened to encounter a disciple of your sect while training in the secret realm. Something unexpected happened during that time, so I came to bother you today."
Gu Changfeng looked at the man standing beside him and pulling Su Yao's sleeve with a face full of displeasure. Not only did this man not greet him when he saw him, but he also pulled his little girl's clothes for some reason.
Why do I always have the illusion that the cabbages I grew at home were eaten by pigs?
