Lu Shi'an looked around in astonishment and said, "What's going on? We're actually back!"
Jiang Yuetong remained calm and composed, though she felt a little regretful. In her previous life, Li Qingrong and the others had stayed there for half a year, while she had only been there for a short time. Fortunately, she had gained quite a bit.
"It should have been Ouyang Yi who brought it back."
After saying that, Jiang Yuetong took out a storage bag and handed it to Li Qingrong, looking at her with her dark eyes: "Go back and cultivate well. If you go out to train, remember to call me. There is my teleportation talisman inside. Crush it and I will appear."
Li Qingrong accepted it with both hands: "Yes, I won't let you down."
At this moment, the old man rushed into the Holy Sword Sect with his identity jade pendant in hand, laughing loudly as he walked, shouting, "After two hundred years, I can finally go home!"
He stopped shortly after walking away, turned around and looked at Jiang Yuetong, who was still standing at the sect gate, and grinned, "You brat, we'll meet again, you know."
Jiang Yuetong: "..."
Li Qingrong smiled and said, "Once I've stabilized my cultivation, I'll definitely call you when I go out for training. You guys must be exhausted from this trip, so hurry back to the three eastern states to rest!"
Jiang Yuetong didn't waste any words. She nodded lightly and said "Mm," then summoned the magical beast Pegasus from within her space and mounted it with nimble and graceful movements.
"Take care of yourself!"
Leaving those words behind, the three headed east.
As they walked away into the distance, a smile appeared on Li Qingrong's pretty face.
We will meet again.
...
Three days later.
The Eastern Regions, the gateway to the three states.
As soon as Jiang Yuetong and her companions landed, the two rows of guards standing on either side of the gate immediately knelt down on one knee upon seeing the newcomers and exclaimed in unison, "Lord Huanhai!"
Jiang Yuetong strode inside, but was quickly blocked by someone.
Seeing that she was safe and sound, Yi Ci visibly breathed a sigh of relief: "You're back."
Jiang Yuetong said coldly, "A good dog doesn't block the way."
Upon hearing this, Yi Ci silently stepped aside to make way, and Jiang Yuetong passed in front of him without even glancing at him.
Yi Ci stared at her back, and when he noticed that the person next to him was getting closer and closer to Jiang Yuetong, his eyes darkened slightly.
This pretty boy: Why is he still following me?!
At this moment, Jiang Yuetong had just returned to the main hall of Huanhai Prefecture when she picked up the wooden slip on the table and began to read it. Without looking up, she ordered, "Throw Lu Shi'an back into the Nine Demon Tower. Also, tell Ru Jing to come over here quickly."
The bodyguard appeared: "Yes!"
She then grabbed Lu Shi'an's arm and pulled him outside.
Lu Shi'an's expression immediately changed drastically: "Master, please don't! Your disciple knows he was wrong."
Ru Jing, who rushed to the main hall, happened to see this scene. Lu Shi'an saw that her eyes were shining and reached out to grab her as he passed by.
"Sister Rujing, help me!"
"Your master is strict with you because it's for your own good."
After saying that, Rujing slowly pulled his hand away.
Lu Shi'an: "..."
He's lost love; he can't stay here anymore.
Looking at the person sitting in the main seat, Ru Jing's heart tightened slightly. She knelt on one knee and said, "Master, has something happened?"
Jiang Yuetong glanced at her and asked casually, "Has Wen Tian made any moves lately?"
Ru Jing pondered for a moment, as if she had thought of something, before slowly speaking: "She stayed by the Second Miss's side all day. After I returned, I secretly sent someone to follow her and found that she was in close contact with a guard."
Jiang Yuetong didn't even look up: "Who is it?"
Ru Jing glanced at her cautiously, hesitated for a moment, and then continued, "It's Wu Ran..."
