Chapter 369 The Human World
The day before the Xiaoyao Sect disciples set out, Zhou Shiqing from the Huanhai Sect arrived, claiming that there is strength in numbers.
The main reason was that during this period, Li Buyan from the Spirit Beast Sect went to the Xiaoyao Sect from time to time, and sent things to Qiao Yue every now and then for various reasons. Sima Zhao's intentions were known to everyone.
Even if Qiao Yue didn't react at first, after so many times, and seeing Li Buyan's evasive yet unconcealed warm eyes, how could she not understand?
I immediately returned his things to him and told him clearly that I already had someone I loved and was engaged to, and that he shouldn't waste his time on her, etc...
Li Buyan didn't want the returned items, but just said that there was no reason to take back things that had been given away.
Qiao Yue had no way to deal with him and could only avoid him. She ran into obstacles many times, but Li Buyan rarely appeared.
However, the news that Li Buyan often went to Xiaoyao Sect to give gifts to Qiao Yue somehow spread out. Rumors are unpredictable and they change their meaning as they spread.
Some people even said that Zhou Shiqing was seriously injured and unconscious some time ago, and was like a living dead. Li Buyan took the opportunity to show his courtesy to Qiao Yue, hoping to take advantage of the opportunity and win her heart.
As soon as Zhou Shiqing, who had just woken up, heard this, he couldn't lie down anymore and started to run to Xiaoyao Sect.
It was still the leader of the Huanhai Sect who forced the man to recuperate.
He advised earnestly, "You and Miss Qiao have been friends since childhood. Even if you don't trust yourself, you should trust her feelings."
"These rumors out there are just rumors, don't take them seriously."
Zhou Shiqing's movements were restricted, and he was seriously injured and unable to move.
He could only use Lingyu to send messages to Qiao Yue every day. The clinginess was unprecedented. Qiao Yue was often silent in front of Lingyu, thinking, could it be that his brain was hurt?
Look, his injuries weren’t fully healed yet, but when he heard that they were going to the human world, he sneaked out.
Qiao Yue was still a little worried and asked with concern, "Junior Sister Jian told me about your injury a few days ago. You came out like this, are you really okay?"
Zhou Shiqing smiled and said, "Junior sister, you're exaggerating a bit. Everything is almost healed now."
If things get any worse, my Taoist partner will be gone soon.
"Okay."
The human world is indeed much safer than other realms.
No matter whether it is a demon, a monster, or an immortal, once they use power that should not be used in the human world and try to change the order of the human world, once the Heavenly Dao notices it, it will send down thunder to punish them without any leniency.
Because of this, all forces will restrain their edges after entering the human world and dare not cross the line easily.
Even if he used his spiritual power, he would not dare to let anyone discover him, let alone interfere in human affairs.
Several people held the pass tokens and injected spiritual power into the token grooves. The tokens instantly lit up with a soft halo and turned into a rotating light gate when they landed on the ground.
Lin Jingyuan looked at the disciples who were about to leave and gave them one more warning: "When you arrive in the human world, remember these three things."
"Never wield a sword in front of others, and never use spiritual power at will. Even if it's an ordinary magical weapon, never show it to mortals."
"The human world is not like any other realm. One wrong step could lead to a warning from the heavens. You must not be careless."
Everyone readily agreed: "Yes, Master."
Lin Jingyuan sent them away and sighed, "What a troublesome bunch."
Just as he was about to leave, a figure approached quickly from a distance.
Lin Jingyuan frowned. Who had the guts to trespass into Xiaoyao Sect?
I was just about to take action and teach the newcomer a lesson.
A familiar young man's voice rang out: "Sect Master Lin, it's me, Li Buyan from the Spirit Beast Sect."
Lin Jingyuan silently withdrew his hand and asked meaningfully, "Are you looking for my Yue'er?"
Not to mention the rumors, he comes here every few days, so it's hard for him not to know.
But Lin Jingyuan didn't care and was even happy to see it happen.
His daughter Yue'er is so outstanding, it's normal for her to have several suitors.
Li Buyan scratched his head and said with a silly smile: "I also have something to do in the human world, and I wanted to go together."
Lin Jingyuan raised his eyebrows slightly and said cruelly: "It's a pity that you are a step too late. They just left."
"Ah?" The expectation on Li Buyan's face was instantly shattered.
"Junior Sister Nan lied to me..."
I took advantage of him and agreed to go to the human world together, but I ended up giving him a fake time.
Damn it!!!
…
At this moment, Nan Xiao had already arrived in the human world and sneezed several times.
Seeing her sneezing non-stop, Ye Wumian asked, "Junior Sister, are you tricking someone again?"
"How do you say that?"
Ye Wumian said firmly: "It's impossible for you to get sick with your physical condition. Nine out of ten times, someone is scolding you."
Nan Xiao: “…”
"Third Brother, you know too much."
Ye Wumian shielded himself with his hands and made an exaggerated expression: "Could it be that I guessed right, Junior Sister wants to kill me to silence me?"
Nan Xiao: “…”
She suspected that her third senior brother had been possessed by her fourth senior brother, but she had no evidence.
After thinking for a moment, Nan Xiao threw a bottle of pills to Ye Wumian and said tactfully, "It's good for your brain. You can't stop taking it."
Seeing him stunned, Nan Xiao added, "Enough."
Ye Wumian's face darkened.
He gritted his teeth and said, "I saw that you were unhappy and wanted to cheer you up, but you turned around and called me crazy."
"Hey, Third Brother, you understand."
Ye Wumian's face turned even darker, and he rolled up his sleeves to arrest someone.
Nan Xiao ran away at the first opportunity.
Ye Wumian looked at Nan Xiao's back as she ran away and shouted, "Little Junior Sister, don't let me catch you, or I'll let you know how powerful my senior brother is!"
The threat in his words was half true and half false, but the ending tone unconsciously softened, with a hint of indulgence.
Nan Xiao didn't even turn his head and waved his hand: "That's too terrible. For the sake of my life, I will not act with Third Brother for the time being."
After they came to the human world, they acted separately in groups of two.
Excluding the places that the Xiaoyao Sect disciples had previously searched, they each chose a direction to move towards the remaining places.
Ye Wumian did not pursue her. Since the junior sister said so, it meant that she already had an idea in her mind.
Fortunately, the spiritual jade can be used normally in the human world, so there is no need to worry about not being able to find the person.
Nan Xiao entered the city and saw the bustling streets spread out before her eyes. The cries of vendors, the laughter of people passing by, and the aroma of various foods wafting from the surroundings made her feel as if she was in another world.
Although there are towns and downtowns in the world of cultivation, they are still different from those in the human world.
Nan Xiao found an inn on the street and asked for a room on the second floor.
The room is not big, with tables, chairs, beds and cabinets, simple and clean.
Nan Xiao opened the window and looked at the crowd gathering downstairs, thinking about how to find someone.
There was a light knock on the door, and the waiter's voice came through the door, a little cautiously: "Miss, the hot water you ordered is ready. Can I bring it in for you?"
"Come in."
After the waiter finished his work and was about to leave, Nan Xiao stopped him and put one or two taels of silver on the table.
"Brother, can I ask you something?"
The waiter's eyes lit up immediately, and he swiftly pocketed the silver with a gracious smile on his face: "Miss, if you ask me, I will tell you everything I know."
Nan Xiao tapped the tabletop lightly with his fingertips, looked up at the waiter, and asked softly, "I heard that a strange phenomenon occurred in this place a few months ago. I wonder if it's true?"
