"Junior Sister, let's go to Wanyue City and meet this Sect Master Wen."
After reading the contents of the communication jade tablet, Lu Li scoffed lightly, then picked up the unsuspecting millet and headed towards the main hall.
"Why do you want to see Sect Leader Wen?"
While Shushu was diligently practicing controlling her flying artifact, she was suddenly lifted into the air and startled for a moment, instinctively wanting to swat at it.
Realizing that it was Lu Li who had put her in his arms, she stopped the dangerous thought that suddenly popped into her mind and looked at Lu Li with some confusion.
What are you looking at, Sect Leader Wen? Which Sect Leader Wen? Could it be that Wen from the Tianyan Sect? These two Wens are truly father and daughter; they just love to pester their senior brother.
Wait, no, shouldn't the man surnamed Wen be at the Tianyan Sect? Why is he in Wanyue City?
And what about the eldest brother? Wasn't he supposed to be going to Wanyue City? Why is he heading towards the main hall? Are they going in the wrong direction?
In just a moment, in the time it takes to say a single sentence, countless questions flashed through Shushu's mind. If question marks could have any substance, Shushu would be utterly bewildered right now.
"You'll see when you see it."
Lu Li was amused by Shushu's funny, bewildered face. He rubbed her head and then opened his communication jade tablet to show her the message that Liu Ying had just sent.
"Senior Brother, why does he want to see you? Does he suspect you're involved in Wen Jianxi's disappearance? That shouldn't be the case; we haven't been exposed, have we?"
After reading the above, Shushu's head full of question marks turned into black lines. Why did this guy surnamed Wen always like to go after her senior brother? Could this be the legendary scum-attracting physique? She didn't understand.
"Don't overthink it. This won't happen to us. That old guy is probably just trying to get on our good side."
Compared to Shushu's unhappy face, Lu Li was much calmer. Anyway, this wasn't the first time that Wen had tried to set him up with his ruthless daughter.
They probably heard that I had met Wen Jianxi in Wanyue City and wanted to see if they could use this as an excuse to meet me.
Then, taking the opportunity, he asked himself to help find Wen Jianxi, hoping to create an opportunity for her daughter.
Anyway, he had nothing to do lately, so why not go and see what that old scoundrel had to say? Just for fun and to pass the time.
As for asking him to save someone, don't even think about it. Even if he were to save the spirit beast that killed Wen Jianxi, he wouldn't save Wen Jianxi herself. He'd be lucky if he didn't sneak up and finish her off with two more sword strikes.
Most importantly, since his master's wife had sent him this message, it meant that he should go and meet the person.
Thinking back to the remnant formation in Xianglai Forest, Lu Li knew that his master's wife probably wanted him to step in and get rid of this Sect Master Wen, since Sect Master Wen also wanted to see him.
Thinking of this, Lu Li sighed helplessly in his heart. His master and mistress were indeed worthy of being Daoist partners. When it came to ordering people around, they always made him the one to do things.
His master told him to lead away the cultivators who had come to watch, and his mistress told him to send away Sect Leader Wen. The two of them were truly a perfect match.
Lu Li complained inwardly, but his use of spiritual power was not slow at all. Before long, he arrived at the main hall on his flying sword and saw Liu Ying waiting there.
"You've arrived. Sect Master Wen of the Tianyan Sect wants to see you. He's waiting at the City Lord's Mansion in Wanyue City. Go and check on him. Remember to send him far away so that no one discovers the Xianglai Forest."
Sure enough, when Liu Ying spoke, she confirmed Lu Li's guess; it really was true.
"Yes, I understand."
What could Lu Li do but agree?
"Okay, good that you know. I'll leave this to you."
Liu Ying pretended not to see the helplessness on Lu Li's face, and even put on a "I believe in you" look, which left Lu Li speechless.
At this moment, he almost didn't want to admit that this was his master's wife. She was really good at being a hands-off manager.
"Hehe, do you think Wen Jianxi is still hiding in that space?"
Perhaps feeling a little guilty, Liu Ying awkwardly changed the subject at the end.
"Hmm, he should be here, otherwise Sect Leader Wen wouldn't have come, would he?"
Lu Li also noticed his master's wife's guilty conscience, but he didn't expose her and just continued talking.
Lu Li later reported in detail to Liu Yu and Liu Ying about what happened in Xianglai Forest.
He explained everything clearly, including that Wen Jianxi had a spatial artifact, that artifact had a spirit, and that Wen Jianxi was eventually swept away by the spatial artifact spirit.
Now his master and mistress are looking for an opportunity to spread this matter, because Wen Jianxi and Sect Leader Wen are both particularly disgusting.
They still dare to covet the Flowing Moon Sect? Then let them taste the bitter fruit of being coveted by everyone in the world.
Unfortunately, Wen Jianxi has not been found yet, and she disappeared on Liuyue Sect's territory. We should keep this information confidential for now to avoid arousing suspicion.
Once she returns and leaves the territory of the Liuyue Sect, they will definitely find a suitable opportunity to smuggle her out.
After all, the Flowing Moon Sect has too many secrets, so it's best not to attract attention. Their motto is to develop quietly.
"Okay, go ahead, just remember not to let anyone notice anything amiss."
Liu Ying was obviously aware of all this. After receiving Lu Li's confirmation that Wen Jianxi was still locked up in that space, she felt relieved and then directly sent her away.
This kid should hurry up and get back to work. The longer Sect Master Wen stays in Wanyue City, the greater the danger of the formation being exposed in Xianglai Forest. It's better to send him away as soon as possible to put your mind at ease.
"Alright, then I'll head over first."
Lu Li naturally didn't want the Tianyan Sect to get a share of the pie. Although it was Wen Jianxi who caused the trouble, the people didn't just run away without being noticed.
Moreover, the remnant formation was discovered by Lu Li himself, and it was also within the territory of the Liuyue Sect. This opportunity could only belong to the Liuyue Sect.
Thinking of this, and fearing that things might change if things dragged on, Lu Li said no more. After bidding farewell to Liu Ying, he put the millet and sweet potatoes in his pocket and headed towards the mountain gate.
Of course, before leaving, Lu Li didn't forget to check the various hidden skills on Shushu. Only after confirming that both the covert artifact given by Liu Yu and the Concealing Breath Technique were activated did Lu Li feel at ease.
After all, Wen Hong is a Nascent Soul cultivator, so it's best to be cautious in front of him.
The best way would actually be not to bring the sorghum along, but the sorghum would eventually have to appear in front of the world, so it couldn't hide forever.
If that's the case, it's better to take her out under this identity to practice her courage and test the waters.
Having learned from their previous experience, the disciples guarding the mountain gate didn't miss Shushu this time. They greeted them, registered their identity information, and then let them pass directly.
The two siblings quickly left the Liuyue Sect and arrived at Wanyue City.
Entering the city was still free and there was no need to queue. As soon as we entered the city, we saw disciples dressed in the robes of the city lord's mansion rushing over, obviously there to pick us up.
