Chapter 885 You Know I'm Suffering

After she brought Ye Qingxuan back to the inn, she helped him lie down on the bed and sat beside his bed for a long time. She only stood up after she didn't see anything wrong with him.

After all, he looked more tired than usual. It must be because blocking the magic weapon took up a lot of his spiritual energy, so he felt even more sleepy.

She got up and left Dayezi's room. As soon as she went out, she saw that night had fallen and the bright moon in the sky was exceptionally bright.

When she was about to go back to her room, she saw Meng Zhanlin, who had been waiting there in the corridor for some time.

Although I have met him many times in Carefree City, this is the first time that I have never had a chance to talk to him alone.

"Have you been waiting for me long?"

"Not long."

"Come sit in my room?"

"good."

Ye Linglong opened the door of his room, invited Meng Zhanlin in, and poured him a cup of tea.

"I'm here to return the gift that Lord Tianyuan gave us as his disciple. Since we haven't become master and disciple, there's no point in asking him to spend money on it. But he definitely won't want it if I give it back to him, and he's not in a good mood right now, so I hope you can keep it for him first."

"You made a good calculation. You gave it to me knowing that he would not want it. When you left, he would have to accept it even if he did not want to. You returned the gift, and he stopped losing money. I am the only one who is in trouble."

Meng Zhanlin smiled.

"But there is nothing in this world that can stump you."

"Then you are wrong."

Ye Linglong smiled and pointed to the sky.

"There is an invisible hand hanging above my life. It will fall down and destroy everything I have, including the lives of me and my fellow disciples. But no one knows when it will fall."

Meng Zhanlin was stunned and his smile disappeared in an instant.

"and you…"

"Don't worry, even though I can't escape its control right now, I won't give up, and neither will my fellow disciples."

"I just realized that I didn't understand you in the past, and I didn't understand you after you left, and I still don't understand you now."

"It's better not to understand."

"Why?"

"You know what I'm doing for no reason? If you have this idea, why don't you do something else?" Ye Linglong said with a smile.

Meng Zhanlin also laughed.

"So, you don't understand either. I don't care whether what I want to do is meaningful or not. But you don't need to understand, I just understand."

Ye Linglong looked at him for a long time. She really didn't understand, but she still nodded respectfully.

"Are you really going back to Tianling Mansion?"

"What else?"

"You are different from them. They have been in Tianling Mansion for many years and have deep feelings for it. You were targeted right after you entered, so you had no choice but to fight against them together. You can choose not to go back according to your own wishes."

"I really don't have any feelings for Tianling Mansion, but going back is the best choice. As long as I go back and gain a foothold, the disciples of Kuangwang Mountain will be able to be promoted normally and treated fairly like everyone else."

Ye Linglong was stunned. That's right. If there are concerns behind him, the choice will be different, even if it is not what he wants.

"You don't want Shu Tong to have nowhere to go in the future, do you?"

"I haven't seen her for a long time."

"She has been working very hard recently. It won't be long before she can take the Tianling Mansion entrance exam. We will have a chance to see each other again."

Ye Linglong nodded and talked about Tianling Mansion. It seemed like this topic had been a long time ago.

"So what are your plans next? Are you going back to Tianling Territory directly? How many Worry-Free Fruits have you got?"

"Under the Worry-Free Tree, we were bullied by Gao Wenwen in the first half, and fled together in the second half. We only got one Worry-Free Fruit, and soon after we got out, we auctioned it and exchanged it for spirit stones, which we divided equally."

Ye Linglong was stunned.

"None of you are going?"

"Who should we let go? Gong Linyu? He is indeed the most qualified, but if he goes, what will happen to the others? We will be homeless at that time."

Meng Zhanlin sighed.

"Even now, we have no regrets. Fu Haoquan and our great-grandmaster are both dead, and there are still many messes to be cleaned up in Tianling Mansion. No one is in the mood to participate in the secret realm on the Worry-Free Tree."

Meng Zhanlin paused and said, "Besides, our road ahead won't be easy either."

Ye Linglong knew what he meant. Fu Haoquan and Yu Jiangtao were both dead, Tianling Mansion was leaderless, and Gong Linyu was just a disciple. Who would be in power in the future and whether he would have a say were all issues that needed to be fought for.

If we can't win, we will lose the initiative, and it is still unknown whether Tianling Mansion can be good in the future.

"You don't have to worry about us. We have been through a lot in these days. Our mentality has changed. We will not give in to what we should fight for. No matter what the final result is, we will never let others bully us again."

"Just keep this in mind. I'll accept these apprenticeship gifts on behalf of Fu Haoxing. Go back and do what you need to do. If there is any need..."

"A friend of yours won't be polite to you, just like now."

Ye Linglong laughed, and Meng Zhanlin laughed along with him. Even though there were storms ahead, the atmosphere in the room was peaceful and comfortable.

After Meng Zhanlin left, Ye Linglong stood up and walked towards Fu Haoxing's room.

As soon as people walked to the front of the room, they saw the candlelight cast two shadows on the door of the room.

Just as she expected, Fu Haoxing couldn't sleep at all.

"Come in if you're here. What are you doing standing at the door?"

Ye Linglong walked forward with an amused look on his face, pushed open Fu Haoxing's door and walked in.

"I'm afraid my senior sister hasn't scolded you enough. If I come in now and see you being scolded, it would be embarrassing, right?"

"You are so beautiful, why do you have such a poisonous mouth? It really ruins your image." Fu Haoxing said angrily.

"Why is my junior sister so poisonous? You are the one who has the most trouble. That's why you think everything she says is directed at you." Yu Honglan rolled her eyes at him.

"Okay, sisters, let's unite. I can't win, I admit defeat and beg for mercy." Fu Haoxing turned to look at Ye Linglong: "Those little bastards came to see you?"

"He was talking to my senior sister in the room, with his ear pressed against my door?"

"That's enough. Stop making things difficult for me. You...you know..." Fu Haoxing sighed heavily, "You know that I'm in pain."

Ye Linglong stopped smiling at this moment.

She knew what was bothering him.

As soon as he said the words of refusal, Yu Jiangtao left without even having a chance to regret.

Even though he wasn't someone he was very familiar with, he was an elder whom he respected. Before leaving, the blood-stained hand was still holding onto him as if he was grabbing a life-saving straw. How could he feel good about that?

"Don't feel bad, Meng Zhanlin just told me that they can take care of themselves.

They almost died several times, even though there were many elders above them, even though they had no support, even though they were doomed to fail, even though they had a miserable end, even though…"

"You did this on purpose?!"
