The door opened with a click. Ling'er looked up and saw Shi Yuchuan holding the door and looking at her. She had no choice but to wipe the tears on her face, lowered her head and didn't speak.
"Miss Ling'er, I seem to hear you crying? Why are your eyes red? Did something happen? " Shi Yuchuan asked even though he already knew the answer. Just now, he had pretended to walk around the service area. In fact, when Ling'er was on the phone, he had been eavesdropping outside the car. He had heard every word of the conversation. How could he not know the reason?
"Nothing. The wind is too strong. Sand got in my eyes. What's the matter?" Ling'er turned her head away. She really didn't want to see Shi Yuchuan's hypocritical face. She felt disgusted just looking at it.
"Hehe, I heard it just now. I also know you are not willing. But this is the order of the sect. As disciples, we can't openly disobey it! Otherwise, if it really gets out, it will damage the reputation of our sect, right? " Shi Yuchuan tried to persuade her on the surface. But in his heart, he was gloating. Bitch, didn't you want to pretend to be pure? Now it's over!
"It's none of your business! I will solve my own business. If there's nothing else, you can go out for a walk. I want to rest for a while. " Ling'er looked at Shi Yuchuan coldly. Just as she was about to close the door, she was stopped by him.
"Hehe, Miss Ling'er, since you have decided, then I can't say anything more. I believe everyone will admire you for your courage to contribute to the sect. But …" Shi Yuchuan smiled wretchedly. He lowered his body and leaned against the door.
Ling'er moved further in in disgust. She wanted to stay further away from Shi Yuchuan.
Shi Yuchuan suppressed the excitement in his heart. He rubbed his hands and said, "How about this … I also know you are unhappy. Instead of letting that idiot Xiao Chen take advantage of you, why not … Hehe, consider me first! Otherwise, it would be such a waste to give him the first time! You see, I usually treat you quite well … Ouch … "
"Get lost!!!" Ling'er knew that Shi Yuchuan had nothing good to say, but she didn't expect him to be so despicable. She was so angry that her vision turned black. Without waiting for Shi Yuchuan to finish, she lifted her leg and kicked him out. Then, she slammed the door shut.
Shi Yuchuan stumbled back a few steps and subconsciously rubbed his ears. He really didn't expect the petite Ling 'er to let out such a loud roar. It almost deafened him.
Depressed, he was about to take another stroll when he suddenly saw Xiao Chen come out of the convenience store in the distance. Then, he got into the Jetta and drove away.
Shi Yuchuan was shocked and quickly got into the car from the other side. Ling'er was about to scold him, but he quickly pointed outside. Ling'er looked up and saw Xiao Chen's car disappear from her sight.
Ling'er knew that Shi Yuchuan was going to continue following her, so she stopped talking. Shi Yuchuan quickly started the car. In his impatience, he almost hit the roadside fence.
Ling'er, who was curled up in the passenger seat, didn't say a word. Her whole body was trembling, and her tears couldn't stop falling. She hated Shi Yuchuan to death. It was obvious that he was the one behind all this.
Ling'er also knew that her master, Grandma Nanshan, couldn't do whatever she wanted in the sect. After all, she was only one of the elders. She still had to listen to the opinions of Zhuo Feifan and the other elders. Although she would definitely stand on her side, she couldn't change other people's minds. Now that she couldn't contact her, it was very likely that the sect had taken some measures against Grandma Nanshan.
After sobbing silently for a while, Ling'er also knew that there was nothing she could do about this matter. She couldn't disobey the sect leader's orders, so she could only choose to accept it.
Sitting silently in the passenger seat, Ling'er's eyes stared straight at Xiao Chen's Jetta not far away. No one knew what she was thinking. No matter what Shi Yuchuan said, she didn't answer. Later, Shi Yuchuan had to give up and focused on tracking Xiao Chen.
After the Smiling Maitreya escaped, he didn't directly return to the Joyful Clan. After all, the distance was too far. He ran to the foot of a nearby mountain with his disciples and then stopped. He planned to recover here first and then continue on his journey.
Originally, this group of people was driving the minibus to find trouble with Xiao Chen. However, they just fled too hastily. The group of people panicked and didn't have time to drive again. No one thought of driving, so they all ran to the roadside wilderness. During this period, they looked up to the sky from time to time, for fear that Xiao Chen would chase them with his flying sword.
After running to the foot of the mountain with great difficulty, the Smiling Maitreya looked back and didn't seem to find Xiao Chen. Finally, he took a breath. First, he ordered the disciples to wake up Old Taoist Dian Long, and then the group ran to the mountain.
The Smiling Maitreya was thinking that even if Xiao Chen had a flying sword, it shouldn't be so easy for him to find them in the dense forest, right? His idea was unanimously approved by many disciples. With a unanimous vote, they began to run up the mountain.
With great difficulty, they climbed to a pavilion halfway up the mountain. The group of people sat down to rest their feet. Someone noticed that there was a stone tablet erected beside the pavilion. On it, the words "GreenStone Mountain" were engraved in large bold and powerful characters.
"GreenStone Mountain? This name seems to be a little familiar? I seem to have heard it somewhere … "The Smiling Maitreya squinted at the few words and touched his head. He tried hard to recall, but he couldn't think of anything.
"Don't think so much. First, find a place to rest! I almost vomited from the jolting along the way. "Old Taoist Dian Long's face was pale, lying on the stretcher and saying weakly.
When he was unconscious just now, he was carried by the Joyful Clan disciples and jolted all the way to the foot of the mountain. When he woke up, he felt that all the bones in his body were scattered. Later on, when he was carried up the mountain, the rugged mountain road made him feel that his internal organs had shifted positions. Now, he couldn't wait to fly directly to the top of the mountain and find a suitable place to lie down and recuperate.
"Alright, then let's go up and take a look." Seeing that his senior brother had spoken, the Smiling Maitreya waved his hand and gave the order.
The Joyful Clan group continued to climb up the mountain, but before they could go far, they were stopped by a cultivator dressed in ancient clothes.
"Stop! This is the restricted area of the GreenStone Sect. Unauthorized people are not allowed to trespass! " That young cultivator was carrying a bamboo basket filled with fresh herbs. It seemed that he had just collected some herbs and happened to meet them when he passed by here. At this moment, he was frowning and blocking in front of the Joyful Clan people.
At first, everyone thought that it was Xiao Chen who had caught up and got a huge shock. It was the Smiling Maitreya who steadied himself. He separated the disciples and walked forward, sizing up that cultivator and said with a little puzzlement, "Kid, you look quite familiar?"
That cultivator was stunned and took a closer look at the Smiling Maitreya. With this look, the expression on his face was a little off, and he instinctively wanted to leave.
The Smiling Maitreya suddenly slapped his thigh and finally remembered. He pointed at that cultivator and said, "Oh yes! I remember that you are the acting sect master of the GreenStone Sect! You are Zheng … Zheng Xinxiang, right? Good kid, I finally caught you. You are the guy who caused trouble at the Lunar New Year Auction previously! "
A few days ago, at the Lunar New Year Auction of the outer martial arts world, the Smiling Maitreya and the long-faced cultivator were fighting for the thousand-year Purple Snow Lotus. Unexpectedly, Zheng Xinxiang interfered in the middle and made him spend an extra 100 million to buy it. Because of this matter, he was even criticized by the sect master and sulked for a few days.
"So it's the Smiling Maitreya from the Joyful Clan …" Zheng Xinxiang subconsciously took two steps back with a bitter expression. He had already recognized the Smiling Maitreya just now and only hoped that the other party would forget about him. Unexpectedly, he was still recognized.
Looking at the Smiling Maitreya who harbored evil intentions and the group of Joyful Clan disciples behind him, Zheng Xinxiang could not help but groan in his heart.
He was originally kind and wanted to buy medicine for his master at the auction, but he accidentally offended the Smiling Maitreya. Previously, he waited in fear for a long time, but he did not see anyone coming to seek revenge. Later on, he finally relaxed and thought that the other party had forgotten about him. Unexpectedly, he actually came to find him now!
"Hehe, you're quite capable, kid! Guarding such a half-dead broken sect, and you actually dare to compete with me, causing me to spend an extra 100 million unjustly. Today, I must make you spit it all out with interest! "The Smiling Maitreya crossed his arms and looked at Zheng Xinxiang, saying with a faint smile.
"Senior, you've misunderstood. I really need that thousand-year Purple Snow Lotus. I didn't … didn't mean to tease you." Zheng Xinxiang explained weakly and then stood on the spot in a daze, completely at a loss of what to do.
He did not even think of escaping. There were so many people on the other side, where could he run to? Besides, the monk could run away, but the temple could not run away!
"Really? Do you think I will believe you? "The Smiling Maitreya took two steps forward and said coldly.
"It's true! It's true! " Zheng Xinxiang took another two steps back. He had already retreated to the edge of the cliff. If he took another step back, he would fall off the cliff. His face was pale, and big beads of sweat rolled down.
The Smiling Maitreya saw that the effect of intimidation had been achieved, so he said slowly, "We, the big sects, are most particular about presenting facts and evidence. We will never wrongly accuse a good person! How about this, I will give you this chance today. It's already late now. You immediately find a place for us to rest and serve us well. Then, based on your performance, I will see if I believe you or not! "
He did not intend to deal with Zheng Xinxiang now. This place was in the middle of nowhere. There was not even a shelter to shelter from the wind and rain. Now that this guy had sent himself to the door, the Smiling Maitreya thought that he would first rest in the GreenStone Sect for a while. After he recovered his vitality, he would settle the score.
"This …" Zheng Xinxiang looked troubled. He did not know how to refuse for a moment.
