Chapter 520 Don’t Be Cheated by Them

To ensure that he was not mistaken, Ye Linglong asked again carefully.

"Third Brother, what do you mean by 'I don't know the purpose'?"

"It means literally, they trapped me here and helped me heal my wounds, but they won't let me leave. I don't know what they are up to, but it's not a good thing. We need to be careful."

Ye Linglong was completely stunned by Gu Linyuan's extremely serious answer that didn't sound fake.

She knew from the beginning that Meng Shutong was weird, but she never thought she could be so weird.

When her third senior brother knew nothing, Meng Shutong had already imagined a passionate love affair and even had him call her husband. Not only that, she also asked herself to call him brother-in-law.

…

She still underestimated Meng Shutong. No wonder even her father told her not to look for her if she had any problems.

"What's wrong, little sister?"

Ye Linglong scratched her head. She couldn't say such a thing.

"It's nothing. You have to heal your injuries before you can leave Pride Mountain. You were still having an attack when I saw you yesterday. It's very dangerous to leave in this situation. Don't worry about their purpose. Since they are helping you heal your injuries, just accept it. It won't do you any harm if you are healed."

"Before that, I just want to leave. No matter what their purpose is, I will be responsible for my own life and death and safety. I don't want to accept help from anyone."

Gu Linyuan's tone was very cold. He was extremely wary of outsiders. If they were not from the same sect as him, Qingxuan Sect, he might not have spoken a word to him.

"It doesn't matter what happens to me alone, but now you are here. As your senior brother, I have to be responsible for your safety. I can no longer try to forcibly mobilize all my strength to break through their barrier. If I do, the injury will worsen. If there is danger, I will no longer be able to protect you."

Ye Linglong looked at Gu Linyuan in surprise.

Could it be that his injuries have not improved after such a long period of treatment and have even worsened, and he is forcibly mobilizing the strength in his body to break through the blockade of Arrogant Mountain on him and leave here?

"Third Brother, it's too dangerous for you to do this!"

"I had no choice."

Ye Linglong was stunned, but Meng Shutong didn't look like the kind of person who would rather die than let him stay.

"They won't let you leave no matter what?"

"The barrier is blocking it."

"Didn't you ask them what they wanted?"

"no."

"And they told you nothing of their intentions?"

"no."

!!!

Is the mistake here so big?

"Junior sister, why are you so surprised?"

"I was just thinking, maybe we can negotiate with them? There's no need to just fight our way through it."

“I haven’t negotiated any terms.”

…

Gu Linyuan thought for a moment and added: "And they are arrogant."

"What happened to Arrogant Mountain?"

"Although the Qingxuan Sect was unknown before, it is also a reputable and upright sect. How can we have anything to do with the people of Kuangwang Mountain? If I damage the reputation of the Qingxuan Sect, I will be blamed for it even if I die."

"Kuangwangshan is also a famous and upright sect."

"Who told you that?"

???

Ye Linglong fell into a daze again.

"Junior sister, the people of Kuangwang Mountain are cunning, eccentric, and arrogant. You must not be fooled by them."

It must be said that she had been tricked into boarding a pirate ship.

After hearing what Gu Linyuan said, Ye Linglong's head was buzzing and he couldn't find anything to say next.

Although she had always known that there were all kinds of people in this world, and that it was very chaotic with people pitting each other, she had not expected to encounter such exciting things as soon as she entered the world of immortal cultivation.

"Third Brother, can you please listen to me for once? Take the time to heal your wounds and ignore other things. Only when you are fully recovered can we leave Prideful Mountain together and look for other fellow disciples."

Gu Linyuan did not hesitate, he nodded slightly in agreement.

"I will definitely take the time to heal my wounds. Now I have to go back first. If they find me, something bad might happen."

"good."

After Ye Linglong agreed, Gu Linyuan left. Before leaving, he was still worried and gave her a lot of instructions, fearing that she might be in danger.

After Gu Linyuan left, the room fell into silence again. Ye Linglong stared blankly at the moonlight outside the window and sighed.

Forget it, I'll just keep practicing and working hard to improve myself. It won't be wrong to become stronger.

Time passed little by little, the night outside the window disappeared, and the morning light shone on the earth. A hustling sound accompanied by hurried footsteps came from outside, forcibly pulling Ye Linglong out of his cultivation state into reality.

"Third sister! Third sister! I finally made it back alive. It was so hard for me! You may not believe it, but my brother really wanted to kill me last night!"

Forget it. She doesn’t believe a word Meng Shutong says now.

There was a knock on the door. Ye Linglong opened his eyes helplessly and walked out to open the door for her.

As soon as the door opened, Meng Shutong gave her a big hug and held her tightly.

"Wuwuwu, I almost couldn't see my beloved third sister!"

"Okay, okay, you suffered last night, why don't you come in and I'll treat you to something delicious?"

Meng Shutong stopped screaming immediately. She let go of Ye Linglong's arm and ran into the house.

"What do you want to eat?"

Ye Linglong sat down with her and began to rummage around in the ring.

She just said it casually. Actually, there was nothing delicious in her ring. She had already eaten up the snacks prepared by her fourth senior brother. The rest were spiritual fruits from the lower world of immortal cultivation. Their spiritual energy and quality were far inferior to those here. They were really not presentable.

The most valuable fruit she owns is the fat head.

"Huh?"

Ye Linglong shouted and took out two flame fruits from the ring. She handed one of them to Meng Shutong.

This flame fruit was picked for her by her Sixth Senior Brother in the secret realm of Qingxuan Sect. She kept it because she didn't finish it.

When she saw the flame fruit, she couldn't help but think of Ye Rongyue, whom she protected like a treasure back then.

This flame fruit is considered quite precious in the lower world of immortal cultivation, and is only slightly better than ordinary spiritual fruits in the upper world of immortal cultivation.

"I still have two flame fruits here, let's share them."

After Ye Linglong finished speaking, he handed one to Meng Shutong. Meng Shutong took the flame fruit and took a look at it with a complicated expression.

"My poor third sister."

?

Ye Linglong raised his head in confusion.

"You must have never eaten good food before. It looks like you've been having a hard time in the underworld these years."

…

"Forget it, follow me from now on and I'll take you to eat delicious food and drink spicy drinks. No, let's go now, I'll take you to eat delicious food!"

After Meng Shutong finished speaking, she dragged Ye Linglong and quickly ran out of the yard. She ran all the way to the gate of one of the yards next door and stopped. Standing at the gate, she began to look around furtively.

…

I see, they are stealing things.
