Furthermore, the cultivation world is accustomed to relying on the strong to establish themselves.
The Jiao clan was still a demon beast, and Lexi was just a cub. At that time, Master's injuries had not yet healed as they are now, and he was already exhausted from taking care of the three of them.
The smallest are the most neglected, and that's their problem.
Lexi resented them, and they deserved it.
"Go ask the Sixth Elder. He's just a lower-ranking Jiao clan member. How could he possibly understand the Dragon Clan's taboo?" Le Xi stubbornly raised her head, pretending that her tears hadn't fallen, then turned and left without chasing after Nian Wanzhou.
Why chase after her? She already dislikes you. Chasing after her will only make her dislike you more.
"Lexi, you..." Wei Wenru still wanted to keep Lexi.
Song Yan stopped him: "Wen Ru, let him process this himself. He's been doing well lately and is trying to change himself. Even though he said those things in his haste, he still cares about Wanwan. Go see Wanwan."
"Alright, go and comfort him." Wei Wenru sighed and went to chase after Nian Wanzhou. All the pent-up emotions had suddenly exploded. The two mature senior sisters always had to comfort their junior sister and brother.
Song Yan is right; some things are better left for them to figure out.
Nian Wanzhou went straight to the canteen, but to her surprise, it was closed. She thought about it and realized that the sect leader had suffered a major injury and had no time to open the canteen.
She left dejectedly and, taking advantage of the fact that no one was watching, went down the mountain.
Before descending the mountain, he tended to his injuries to avoid frightening others, and also sent a message to Wei Wenru, Yuheng, and the others to let them know he was safe: "Go down the mountain to find food, don't worry about me."
She didn't want to worry anyone, and she didn't want to be constantly followed and advised, so she went straight down the mountain.
I boldly descended the mountain, venturing out alone for the first time.
Despite her weakness, Nian Wanzhou pressed forward relentlessly. Now, all those who coveted her were too busy to even think about attacking her.
The power of the world's origin continuously repaired her injuries, and also cleared her mind and eyes.
She knew where there was any threat or turmoil for her.
She stopped in front of the wonton stall, and her stomach immediately rumbled as soon as she smelled the aroma.
We sat down and ordered more than a dozen bowls of wontons, as well as roujiamo (Chinese hamburger), five roasted sweet potatoes, liangpi (cold skin noodles), stinky tofu, dumplings, and braised pork knuckle from the vendor next door. Our appetites were so huge that they shocked everyone.
"Young lady, aren't you eating too much? It would be a waste if you couldn't finish it," the wonton stall owner couldn't help but ask her.
Although there was plenty of grain at this time, it was something that ordinary families absolutely could not waste. Grain was precious and money was hard to earn, which is why they would try to persuade people to give it up.
Nian Wanzhou didn't even look up and started eating the wontons: "Thank you, but I can finish them all, and I still think it's not enough."
After saying that, he began to eat and drink voraciously.
Tears streamed down her face as she ate, falling into her bowl and wetting the tablecloth.
She cried bitterly, like a child who had suffered all kinds of injustice, or like someone who had lost a loved one.
Her sadness did not escape the eyes of the wonton stall owner, who thought the child had been hungry for too long and was crying because she had eaten. He couldn't help but shake his head: "Sigh! Poor child, life is not easy."
Then, he quietly put a few more wontons in Nian Wanzhou's bowl, which was a kind gesture.
After a hearty meal, Nian Wanzhou's face was streaked with tears. The tears mixed with the soup as she swallowed them, as if she were swallowing all her grievances and resentment.
Those around them almost thought it was a child who hadn't eaten for months, eating so quickly and in such a large quantity.
They stared in disbelief at the food.
Only a stick of incense had passed by the time Nian Wanzhou finished eating. Feng Canyun swept away the food on the table and put the empty bowls back on the table.
He wiped his mouth, finished the pastries he had brought, and then stood up contentedly.
"Thank you, stall owner. Keep the change. I'll come again next time." Nian Wanzhou dropped the money and ran away. She sensed someone was watching her and that the person was up to no good. She decided not to cause trouble for these innocent people.
She led the person to a secluded spot at the foot of the mountain, took out her jade tweezers that were beeping loudly, read through all the messages, and then slowly replied:
I'm hungry, so I'm going down the mountain to get something to eat. It's safe, no need to worry. Today I'm returning to Qinghu Secret Realm; the return date is uncertain, so please don't worry. Please focus on your cultivation, everyone. A great calamity is approaching; I will return then.
After finishing writing, I closed Yuting (a voice chat program), and finally, it was quiet.
Those people arrived too.
The ten newcomers were extremely hostile, and their cultivation levels were not low, with several at the Nascent Soul stage. The leader's cultivation level was close to that of the eldest senior sister.
Nian Wanzhou wasn't afraid at all. She even knew that this was a setup by Xiao Tiandao, intended to teach her a lesson. Little did she know that Xiao Tiandao had already concealed his whereabouts, returned to the sect, and even descended the mountain.
It could be said that Xiao Tiandao couldn't detect her whereabouts and always thought she was still hiding in the Tianji Sect.
She was bewildered by the aura emanating from the Heavenly Mystery Sect.
However, Xiao Tiandao hasn't had time to keep a close eye on her lately. Even after his battle with the Black Mist, she's still causing trouble. The Black Mist is becoming increasingly active.
Xiao Tiandao needs to control the degree of torment so that he is willing to sacrifice himself.
These people were waiting for her when she was alone on her way back to the sect from Xunyi City, and there must have been other powerful beings among them.
Her sudden return to the sect disrupted the plans of these people and Xiao Tiandao, leaving them only able to stay at the foot of the mountain and keep a close watch on their movements. Because Wei Wenru would definitely go down the mountain for further training, she would certainly go with her.
Then, taking advantage of the opportunity to give Wei Wenru a chance to hone her skills, Xiao Tiandao thought that after countless painful torments, she would definitely not be able to endure it.
No one can watch their loved ones die again and again, suffering physical and mental trauma, and still live a healthy life.
At that time, she will be trapped in the constraints set by Little Heavenly Dao and have to let things take their course.
And then comes the sacrifice, right?
Given Wei Wenru's current cultivation speed, the spiritual energy she purifies from the black mist will surely allow many people in the cultivation world to ascend to immortality.
Back to the group of ten, those people who had chased them here actually managed to cut off the trail of the woman who had the aura of a white dragon. Enraged, they went around cutting down trees to vent their anger.
Thinking that this person was probably familiar with the White Dragon, which was why he carried the White Dragon's aura, he figured he could make a deal if he caught him.
The person disappeared!
"How did this person suddenly disappear? Did he have accomplices?"
"Could she have been rescued?"
"I think she realized she was being followed and deliberately brought us here to shake us off. The people of the Heavenly Mystery Sect are always cunning and unfathomable."
The leader thought for a moment and said, "That's possible. We need to thoroughly investigate the surrounding area first. We absolutely cannot let them go back. If we don't seize this opportunity now, who knows what the future holds? We've finally overcome this great calamity!"
"Yes." The other nine people, without any suspicion, decisively looked around.
Trees fell in the mountains and forests, wild animals scattered, and many herbs turned to ashes in their hands.
Even though they caused a huge uproar and attracted the attention of others, they did not give up and continued to search for Nian Wanzhou's whereabouts.
