"He saved you?" Mo Linxian tensed up immediately. He grabbed the little bandit's small shoulders and carefully looked her up and down several times. Still not reassured, he asked, "Are you hurt anywhere? Who is this audacious bastard who dared to touch my beloved disciple on my turf!"
Ji Fengyao knew her master's weakness; if she didn't try to shift the blame onto her master...
Master is all smiles with Black Owl right now, but he'll be ready to get his hands on Black Owl and give him a piece of his mind later.
So the little bandit blinked her innocent big eyes, squeezing out a few misty tears, and said pitifully and innocently, "It's all because of you, Master, who caused this trouble. It's because at the Immortal Fate Gathering in Maple City last time, you exposed Qingfu Fairy's little trick of hiding a sword in her sleeve and trying to hurt people in secret. You also said in public that Qingfu Fairy was not good enough for Sect Master Ling, and threatened to persuade Sect Master Ling to break off the engagement with Qingfu Fairy."
The head of the Jun family, along with several elders and Fairy Qingfu, have come to Liuxiang Town!
I had just slipped down the mountain when I ran into the Jun family.
They know I am your only disciple, Master, and seem to be quite favored, so they plotted to use me to blackmail you.
Fortunately, Sect Master Ling arrived after hearing the news and rescued me from their clutches.
Otherwise, if I fell into the hands of the Jun family, who knows what they would do to me, given how much they hate you, Master!
The young female bandit spoke with reason and emotion, making her point clearly and vividly.
Even Black Owl, who had experienced it firsthand, couldn't help but believe that he had indeed saved her.
Upon hearing that this matter was indeed related to him, Mo Linxian realized that he truly had no choice but to accept Ling Qing's favor today.
Despite his immense displeasure, he could only hastily clasp his hands in thanks to Hei Xiao and say, "I won't thank you for your great kindness. I will repay you for protecting my disciple today another day."
After a pause, Mo Linxian realized that this seemed insincere, so he added, "Otherwise, you could send a message to Yunxiao, saying that the protective array of my Dan Sect is quite sturdy, and if he is willing to cultivate peacefully in my Dan Sect until he ascends, he can come anytime."
Clouds?!
Yunxiao was still alive at this time!
Black Owl's pupils dilated in shock, and his fists involuntarily clenched.
"Yunxiao?" Ji Fengyao vaguely seemed to have heard this name before.
But this was the first time Mo Linxian had mentioned this name in front of her.
“That’s a friend of Sect Master Ling. Little Jiaojiao, don’t worry about these idle people. Just stay by your master’s side and focus on your cultivation and alchemy.” Mo Linxian picked up the little bandit girl and sat her on a small stool. He then picked up her bowl and chopsticks and ate a couple of bites himself. He frowned and said, “The taste is not bad, but Little Jiaojiao, it must have been quite difficult for you to find these coarse ingredients with no spiritual energy in the Danling Continent.”
Ji Fengyao: "..."
That's right!
She had transmigrated through several lifetimes to obtain the Void Stone, expand her storage ring, and stockpile these coarse ingredients!
"Yunxiao, where is he now?" Black Owl didn't know how Ling Qing had interacted with Mo Linxian in the past, so he didn't dare to address him rashly.
"If I can know where he is, then others can know where he is too." Mo Linxian took two more bites, then looked up curiously: "Hey, why are you asking me about this? Don't you know where he is better than I do?"
Black Owl lowered his head slightly, a faint throbbing pain shooting through his mind:
Yes, he should know better than anyone else where Yunxiao is;
Because wherever Yunxiao goes, he leaves behind a mark that only he can understand.
