Based on her little she-devil personality, tricking an ordinary person to complete a task for her was a simple matter, and she would not feel any guilt in her heart.
But later, as the relationship between Hong Zhu and Xiao Chen grew closer, she gradually learned that this boy had already developed true feelings for Shen Jingxuan, and that he was not just playing around. That was why she had told Hong Zhu to take good care of Shen Jingxuan and not let her get hurt.
This time, Hong Zhu was in a dilemma. She did not want to hurt Xiao Chen, so she could not bear to let Shen Jingxuan "die" in her place. But if she did not let Shen Jingxuan go, then who would complete the task? Could it be that after going around in circles, she still had to do it herself?
Today, Hong Zhu had come to lay her cards on the table with Shen Jingxuan. The Ghost Cultivation Sect had already begun to move, and it was obvious that they were preparing for that matter. Therefore, the Immortal Cultivation Sect's need for women with spiritual energy was growing more and more urgent. If this matter was not properly carried out, it was bound to be a mess.
Hong Zhu planned to tell Shen Jingxuan everything she knew and let her make her own choice. If she finally chose to accept the task, it could not be considered as him forcing her to do so. If she decided to give up, then he would not stop her.
Hong Zhu's expression changed from time to time, sometimes worried, and sometimes depressed. Seeing this, Shen Jingxuan also became a little nervous. She quickly walked in front of Hong Zhu and asked in a low voice, "Is Xiao Chen in danger? Last time, I heard you say that Xiao Chen was chased by the Sect Leader of the Kui Mountain Sect, and then there was no news of him. Is there any news of him now? "
Ever since she learned that Xiao Chen had offended someone from the outer martial arts world, Shen Jingxuan had been so worried that she could not eat or drink for several days. She had also lost a lot of weight. She even had the idea of returning to the secular world to rescue Xiao Chen. Later, after Hong Zhu's repeated persuasion, she gave up on this idea.
Through Hong Zhu's analysis, as well as after she had calmed down and thought things over, Shen Jingxuan also understood that with her current meager cultivation, it was simply impossible for her to fight against the Sect Master of an outer martial arts sect. Even if she managed to find Xiao Chen, she would only be a burden.
Although she was unwilling, Shen Jingxuan could only temporarily suppress the impulse in her heart and devote herself to cultivation. She strived to learn as soon as possible so that she could help Xiao Chen.
Although she didn't mention it, Shen Jingxuan was still worried about Xiao Chen. She usually lived alone in a corner and did not know much about the outside world, so when she saw the conflicted look on Hong Zhu's face, she naturally thought of Xiao Chen.
Hong Zhu was slightly taken aback, his expression a little unnatural. If he had really substituted himself for her and deliberately sent her to her death, Xiao Chen would definitely hate him, wouldn't he?
Seeing that Hong Zhu was not saying anything, Shen Jingxuan could not help but grab her wrist and ask anxiously, "Hong Zhu! Tell me quickly, did Xiao Chen get into trouble again? "
"Don't be anxious!" Hong Zhu came back to his senses and patted the back of Shen Jingxuan's hand to comfort her. "According to the current information, Xiao Chen's life should not be in danger for the time being. However, according to speculation, he might have been captured by the inner martial arts world!"
Although Hong Zhu was actually not confident about Xiao Chen's safety, seeing how agitated Shen Jingxuan was, she could only advise her with kind words and calm her down first.
"The inner martial arts world?" Shen Jingxuan was stunned and asked doubtfully, "Didn't he offend the Kui Mountain Sect of the outer martial arts world before? Why is he going against the inner martial arts world again? Could it be that the Kui Mountain Sect found help? "
"The Kui Mountain Sect's leader is dead, so this threat has been removed." Hong Zhu shook his head and said, "There seems to be a mysterious force in the inner martial arts world that is capturing cultivators on a large scale. I suspect that Xiao Chen's disappearance has something to do with this mysterious force!"
"Then what should we do? Xiao Chen might still be in danger … "Shen Jingxuan frowned slightly. She looked so pitiful that people could not help but want to go up and pamper her.
"We are also looking for his whereabouts now." Hong Zhu suddenly thought of something and said, "By the way, a few days ago, Xiao Xiao, Jin Beibei, and Song Huawu came to the Outer Martial Arts World Guild to ask for help. I happened to run into them. Do you know them? They are now in the Hong family of the inner martial arts world to help investigate the missing cultivators and to find Xiao Chen's whereabouts. "
"What? Beibei and Xiao Xiao also went to the inner martial arts world?! "Shen Jingxuan was shocked." Why … why didn't you stop them? They actually brought them into the inner martial arts world. This is wrong! If they were in danger, how could we explain it to Xiao Chen? "
Shen Jingxuan, who was gentle and demure, was also stomping her feet anxiously. She did not have much impression of Song Huawu. After all, she had only met her once. However, Jin Beibei and Xiao Xiao were different!
Of the two of them, one was Cheng Mengying's cousin, and the other was Xiao Chen's younger sister. Usually, they held them in their hands, afraid that they would fall, and held them in their mouths, afraid that they would melt. If something happened to these two young ladies, wouldn't Xiao Chen and Cheng Mengying's hearts ache to death?
"Jingxuan, don't worry too much. They are both staying in the Hong family and never leaving. I've also sent out the Hong Shadow Guardians to protect them." After comforting Shen Jingxuan, Hong Zhu lowered his head and hesitated for a moment. Then he said solemnly, "In fact, I came to you today for another important matter …"
"What is it?" Shen Jingxuan's head was filled with the safety of Xiao Chen and Jin Beibei. Her heart was burning with anxiety. She did not notice Hong Zhu's face and simply asked casually.
"Jingxuan, do you still remember the world of Immortal Cultivators that I mentioned to you before?" Hong Zhu hesitated for a moment and summoned his courage to say, "Right now, there is a way to enter the world of Immortal Cultivators. It is a great opportunity for you …"
"Wait a moment." Before Hong Zhu finished, Shen Jingxuan frowned and did not want to listen to him anymore. "What does it have to do with me whether or not I can enter the world of Immortal Cultivators? Shouldn't the most important thing right now be to find Xiao Chen and then bring him out of the inner martial arts world safely together with Jin Beibei and the rest of them? "
Shen Jingxuan was usually very strict with her upbringing, and she was a kind person who would never rashly interrupt others when they were talking. If it were not for the fact that she was really in a hurry and Hong Zhu had suddenly brought up a completely unrelated matter, she would not have so rashly objected.
"Let me finish first!" Naturally, Hong Zhu understood Shen Jingxuan's anxiety. Therefore, he did not feel offended. Instead, he waved his hands and explained patiently, "With our current abilities and information channels, it is very difficult to find out Xiao Chen's whereabouts, let alone rescue him. Do you agree with that?"
Shen Jingxuan nodded helplessly. She secretly hated herself for not being strong enough. Otherwise, she would not have been trapped here and could only wait for Hong Zhu to bring her bad news.
