Just as Xu Ruoyun's eyes lit up, Fu Zi'ang, who was walking at the front, turned around.
Seeing her like this, Fu Ziang was initially startled. But when he realized that his third senior sister's expression was not simple, he immediately started scanning his surroundings as if a radar had been activated, trying to figure out what was going on. He also wanted to watch the drama unfold.
Unfortunately, after looking around, he couldn't find any melon. Following Xu Ruoyun's gaze, all he saw was a couple who looked somewhat like Daoist lovers. Apart from their sticky eyes and ambiguous actions, he couldn't see anything else amiss.
Unable to find the answer, Fu Ziang could only turn around and whisper to Xu Ruoyun, "Third Senior Sister, what did you discover?"
As soon as he said this, Shushu and Tutu, who had already noticed Xu Ruoyun's excited expression, also quickly came over at almost the same time, propped up their little bodies, and stared intently at Xu Ruoyun.
If eyes could speak, they would be repeating the same sentence over and over: "Tell me! Tell me! I'm waiting to hear it!"
Even Ling Mufeng, who was lagging behind, perked up his ears, wanting to know what his third senior sister had seen that made her so excited.
The expressions on the faces of the two people, the mouse and the rabbit, were exactly the same at this moment: curiosity mixed with excitement, and an anticipation of watching the drama unfold.
All I can say is: as expected of those from the same sect, it truly proves the saying: "Those who are not family will not enter the same sect."
The senior and junior disciples' rich expressions and somewhat comical behavior, though they had deliberately tried to conceal their presence, still caught the eye of a group of the newest generation of prodigies from various sects, led by Lu Ligu Borong, who were conducting their daily sect diplomacy and strolling around together.
From the moment Shushu appeared in his perception range, Lu Li's attention was entirely focused on her.
Seeing that Shushu was on one of Xu Ruoyun's shoulders, only pulling at a strand of Xu Ruoyun's hair, she stood up, wishing she could move her whole body closer, as if she couldn't hear Xu Ruoyun if she was a little further away.
The sight of the little guy made Lu Li a little scared. He was worried that the little guy might fall headfirst down because he was too focused on listening to the gossip.
Therefore, he focused all his attention on the potato, completely ignoring the other three people and the rabbit.
That's not all. Just to be on the safe side, he secretly condensed a spiritual energy shield to ensure that if Shushu accidentally fell, he could catch her immediately instead of letting her land on the bluestone road.
In contrast, apart from Gu Borong who only focused on Xu Ruoyun, the others looked at each of them one by one, and finally their gazes all fell on those three.
As Liu Yu's personal disciples, Xu Ruoyun and her brother were quite strong and were not unknown figures in the Yulin Continent. At first, people might not have recognized them, but after taking a few more glances, everyone present recognized them.
Seeing the three people, along with a rat and a rabbit, huddled together, whispering amongst themselves, I followed the very affectionate couple like a thief.
When others walk, they walk too; when others stop, they quietly stop a short distance away, their eyes shining as they stare at them from time to time. After watching, they huddle together and discuss for a while, then laugh like mice that have successfully stolen oil.
And so, without them even realizing it, they watched as the two figures nearly darted from one end of the street to the other.
Until I saw the couple at the front again, stopped at a stall selling magical artifacts, it seemed they wanted to give the female cultivator some magical artifact accessories.
Xu Ruoyun and her companions stopped at the nearest spiritual plant stall and bought some plants without saying a word, silencing the stall owner who was hesitant to speak.
Then they pretended to select spiritual plants, but in reality, they all pricked up their ears to listen to the sounds from the stalls next to them.
Ji Xiujie, the chief disciple of the Hunyuan Sect Master, suddenly came to his senses. He coughed awkwardly to cover up his unease before looking at Lu Li.
“Fellow Daoist Lu, those must be your junior brothers and sisters. I wonder what they are doing! Following someone like this on the street, isn’t that inappropriate?”
Ji Xiujie's tone when he said this was really not very nice, and even carried a hint of aggressiveness. He looked directly at Lu Li, waiting for his answer and explanation.
He was like a messenger of justice, able to judge others.
Lu Li merely glanced at him indifferently, showing no intention of replying. He truly had no idea what Xu Ruoyun was up to.
But out of the corner of his eye, he noticed someone paying attention to Xu Ruoyun at a certain moment, and he thought about the sweet moments between the two of them, and that neither of them had any intention of hiding the matter.
In addition, news recently sent back by the disciples in charge of intelligence gathering indicates that some people have their eyes on the Liuyue Sect and want to maintain the sect's status through marriage alliances.
Lu Li thought for a moment and decided to take this opportunity to leak some information to dispel certain people's ideas and reduce the probability of Xu Ruoyun and Gu Borong being targeted.
Having figured things out, Lu Li was no longer angry at Ji Xiujie's deliberate provocation. In front of everyone, he gave Gu Borong a look, signaling him to speak.
Gu Borong was also clever. When he met his senior brother's gaze, he quickly went through the words in his mind and understood his meaning. He then naturally took over the conversation.
"My third junior sister is probably curious why the grand-nephew of your sect's Supreme Elder, who clearly has a fiancée, is still flirting with other female cultivators."
In a single sentence, Ji Xiujie was instantly thrown off balance. He disregarded the unwritten rule in the city that it was best not to use divine sense indiscriminately and immediately released his divine sense over there.
Sure enough, he quickly found a low-level concealment artifact on the male cultivator, and confirmed that this person was indeed the philanderer from their sect who had provided countless topics of gossip and ridicule for others.
Ji Xiujie didn't know how the people from the Liuyue Sect could see through him at a glance, but at this moment, his face was undoubtedly dark with anger. In the end, he didn't even care about the others present and went up to drag the male cultivator away in a fit of rage.
