As expected, Lu Yiyi directly and politely refused, saying that she planned to go back alone.
But what was even more surprising to everyone was that Long Yi also said that he planned to travel around Pingshui County alone.
As soon as these words were spoken, several people looked at Long Yi meaningfully, while Huang Xuan walked away with an unhappy look on his face, having already regarded Long Yi as his love rival.
"You're so good, Long Yi! I really misjudged you! They say you shouldn't bully a friend's wife. Although Lu Yiyi isn't my girlfriend, everyone knows that I've been pursuing her for almost ten years, and yet you're so..."
Huang Xuan started the BMW while thinking angrily in his heart.
Lu Yiyi blinked her big eyes and whispered, "Brother Yi, you feel very different after coming back from the capital this time."
"People always grow up. There's nothing strange about that." Long Yi said coldly with a calm expression on his face.
Lu Yiyi didn't comment, but didn't say anything else. The two of them just walked on the street, looking at each other in silence.
When pedestrians walked past the two of them, they all looked at each other sideways, with envy that was hard to conceal in their eyes.
Although Lu Yiyi didn't wear any makeup, she was already stunningly beautiful just by looking at her plain face. Her two long legs swayed so gracefully that even the residents of the small county town suspected that she was an international supermodel.
While waiting for the red light, Lu Yiyi finally couldn't bear the deadly silence any longer and took the initiative to ask, "Brother Yi, I guess you stayed here on purpose, so you must have something to say to me, right?"
After a while, she looked up at Long Yi, opened her red lips slightly, and said embarrassedly: "If you want to confess to me, then don't say it. Some words will make us lose our friendship..."
Long Yi felt amused. Why hadn't he noticed that this girl was so narcissistic before? Could it be that any man would fall in love with her?
He smiled and said, "You don't think I have any romantic feelings for you, do you?"
"Uh...what do you want to say?" Lu Yiyi was obviously stunned for a moment.
She just subconsciously thought that Long Yi, like the group of boys who had shown him favors before, had other intentions towards her.
After all, whether it was Huang Xuan's five-year-long admiration or Li Yuan's occasional probing, she had the illusion that the boys who deliberately showed their affection were just after her beauty... because she was so beautiful that even at Yandu University, which was full of beautiful women, she was more than enough to outshine all the others.
Especially her cool and pure temperament like a lotus emerging from the water, which has fascinated countless men.
Only Long Yi knew that this unique temperament was not something Lu Yiyi was born with, but was formed through the accumulation of unique cultivation techniques.
"I'm traveling with you for only one reason, and that's that as a friend of many years, I don't want you to encounter any danger, so if you have any difficulties, just tell me directly." Long Yi looked straight into her eyes, his gaze sharp and revealing an irresistible majesty.
Under Long Yi's gaze, Lu Yiyi's mind seemed to be captured. She quickly turned her head in panic. Just as she was about to tell Long Yi what happened, she saw the middle-aged man standing across the street and froze in place for a moment.
"Brother Yi, let's stop talking for now. My second uncle is here to pick me up."
Lu Yiyi took advantage of the green light and ran across the street. After a struggle in her heart, she turned back and said softly:
"Brother Yi, thank you very much for your kindness. I am very grateful to have a friend like you."
Then, she trotted towards the middle-aged man with her slender legs.
Long Yi looked in the direction she was moving, and sure enough, he saw a middle-aged man with a dull expression and a terrifyingly pale face staring at Lu Yiyi.
The middle-aged man looked like someone who had been taking methamphetamine for a long time. His face was pale and thin. If there was a trace of blood at the corner of his mouth, he would definitely look like a zombie in a movie or TV drama.
"It's quite interesting that I can actually see a master of the middle level of the Heavenly Realm in such a small Pingshui County. This proves that Lu Yiyi is definitely hiding something from me." Long Yi thought to himself.
There was a cold light in the middle-aged man's deep eyes, and he looked at Long Yi with a chill in his eyes. The warning in his eyes was self-evident.
Long Yi sneered, but he was not bored enough to look at the middle-aged man. He just threw out a tracking talisman without anyone noticing, and it instantly stuck to Lu Yiyi's back, and then the talisman disappeared instantly.
His spiritual sense can only cover an area of one kilometer, so he can only mark it in advance and use secret methods to keep an eye on Lu Yiyi's movements at all times.
With the tracking symbol, as long as Lu Yiyi is still in the four provinces of Central Plains, Long Yi can accurately lock her location.
After Long Yi left for a distance, the middle-aged man snorted coldly and said unhappily, "A commoner actually dared to look me in the eye without knowing his own limitations. If I wasn't worried about being issued a wanted order, I would have killed him right here."
After saying that, he looked at Lu Yiyi in front of him and warned her word by word: "You know my methods. If any boy dares to get so close to you next time, I don't mind taking another life!"
The man stared at Lu Yiyi fiercely, completely unlike the kind and polite attitude of an elder towards the younger generation in the family.
Lu Yiyi's delicate body trembled for a second, and she shuddered. Finally, she could only say helplessly: "Okay, Uncle Wu, I understand."
She followed the middle-aged man desperately, but when she turned the corner, she couldn't help but look back at Long Yi, and said sadly in silence:
"Brother Yi, thank you for your concern, but it's better for you not to get involved in some things. You don't have enough strength to back yourself up. The more you know, the more danger you will put yourself in..."
......
After branding the tracking talisman on Lu Yiyi's body, Long Yi walked into a large pharmacy with confidence.
"Hello, Master Shi, has my old man come to your pharmacy to get medicine recently?" Long Yi went straight to the point.
When the old man was in Taohua Village, he always came to this store in Pingshui County to buy medicine. If we can confirm that the old man has come to get medicine recently, it means that he is still in Taohua Village.
If someone hasn't come to get medicine recently, it means they have left Taohua Village.
"I'm sorry, sir. The old man you mentioned hasn't come to get his medicine since six months ago. I thought he'd found a store with a better price-performance ratio, but now it seems..."
Long Yi's face became solemn. Ever since he could remember, the old man had at most gone to Pingshui County to attend the market and buy some medicine. As for leaving Pingshui County, that was even more impossible.
"So, sir, are you planning to buy medicine, or are you just asking for personal information?" the manager asked politely.
Just as Long Yi was about to continue asking questions, the spiritual seal in his mind suddenly shook violently, which proved that Lu Yiyi was now moving at high speed.
"Huh? Leaving so soon?"
He thought for a moment, then immediately walked out of the pharmacy and headed straight for the direction of the light in his mind.
