Bai Li left first. In the room, Jin Qi and Chen Chu were still sitting on the floor. After a long silence, Chen Chu slowly stood up.
"I should go too." He said.
Jin Qi nodded and watched Chen Chu walk out the door.
"You should put in more effort too." Jin Qi suddenly said.
Chen Chu stopped, but didn't turn back. He stood in the door, silent for a long time.
"Okay." After a simple answer, Chen Chu left. Jin Qi was the only one left in the room. The light from the custom-made "Circulating Light" seemed to have dimmed a little.
Mizar Peak, summit.
After leaving Jin Qi's place, Bai Li quickly returned to Mizar Peak, and found his teacher, Mizar Star Guo Wu Shu. He had just finished explaining to Guo Wu Shu about Lu Ping's situation. He stood to the side with his head bowed, and didn't peek at Guo Wu Shu's expression. He just quietly waited for Guo Wu Shu's signal.
He waited for about three seconds, before Guo Wu Shu finally spoke.
"I know." Guo Wu Shu said.
Bai Li waited for another three seconds, but didn't hear Guo Wu Shu say anything else. He raised his head in puzzlement towards his teacher. But Bai Li couldn't see any joy or anger on that old, stern face.
"What should I do?" He could only ask directly.
"I'll handle it." Guo Wu Shu said.
"You?" Bai Li was extremely shocked. His teacher had rarely asked about anything in the past forty years, and never left Mizar Peak. A few days ago, he had made an exception and stepped out of Mizar Peak because of Lu Ping. This time, he was going to make an exception again for Lu Ping, and personally handle it.
This Lu Ping, what was his background?
Bai Li was really curious, but Guo Wu Shu didn't seem to have any intention of explaining to him. He walked to the side of the peak, his gaze already looking into the distance. Soul power suddenly began to flow around his body.
World's End Near at Hand!
As Guo Wu Shu's first disciple, how could Bai Li not recognize his teacher's unique ability. But he hadn't thought that Guo Wu Shu would not only make an exception for Lu Ping, but also act so quickly and resolutely, leaving as soon as he said he would.
Bai Li hurriedly bowed and bid farewell to his teacher. Following that, he felt a wave of Soul Force sweeping over. Guo Wu Shu stomped his feet and leapt off the mountain peak, transforming into a beam of light. He flew straight out.
Bai Li stood on the peak and stared blankly at this scene.
Guo Wushu wasn't going to do it himself. He was going to do it himself. He just didn't know how he would act.
In the evening.
In autumn, the sky darkened earlier and earlier. Lu Ping, who returned from Megrez Peak, rested for an entire afternoon. At this moment, he'd already eaten his dinner and fed the rabbits. Just as he was estimating when to leave for Megrez Peak to look for Yan Ge, someone knocked on the courtyard door of the fifth courtyard that wasn't closed.
Lin Tianbiao stood outside the door. He clearly saw Lu Ping in the courtyard, but he still politely asked, "May I ask if Lu Ping is in?"
"Didn't you see me?" Lu Ping asked curiously. He clearly saw that Lin Tianbiao's gaze was on him.
Lin Tianbiao smiled, but didn't explain. He only asked, "Can I come in?"
"Please come in." Lu Ping said. Lin Tianbiao then walked into the fifth courtyard, ignoring Lu Ping. Instead, he greeted Huo Ying who was half reclining on the bamboo chair, "Hello senior apprentice-brother Huo Ying."
Huo Ying, who spent an unknown amount of time with his eyes closed, slightly opened his eyes. After squinting at Lin Tianbiao, he slightly nodded and didn't say a word.
Lin Tianbiao's gaze then returned to Lu Ping. Smiling, he said, "I'm afraid you'll miss the time, so I came to remind you."
"I won't forget, I'm preparing to go over now." Lu Ping said.
"Alright." Lin Tianbiao nodded, "It's better earlier than later."
"I'll leave now." Lu Ping said.
Lin Tianbiao nodded.
"You're going too?" Lu Ping asked as he went to catch some rabbits. After dinner, the two rabbits were placed in the courtyard by Lu Ping. At this time, they were jumping happily.
"Yes, I'm going to see if there's anything I can help with." As Lin Tianbiao spoke, he watched Lu Ping capture the two rabbits. He couldn't use his Soul Power. He was unable to use his soul power, but his movements seemed to be very agile. The two rabbits were easily caught by him.
"Then it must have been hard on you. Thank you. "Lu Ping thanked Lin Tianbiao as he placed the two rabbits back into their respective rooms.
Lin Tianbiao took the opportunity to glance at the five courtyards. In the circle of rooms, there were two that were lit up. Occasionally, he could see a shadow moving by the window, but to his arrival. No one had any reaction.
"Let's go." At this time, Lu Ping closed the doors of the two rooms and said to Lin Tianbiao.
"Senior apprentice-brother Huo Ying, goodbye." Lin Tianbiao didn't forget to bid farewell to Huo Ying. But this time, Huo Ying didn't even open his eyes, only shaking his head as a greeting.
Lin Tianbiao slowly left the courtyard, and only when he reached the door did he lightly sigh.
"What's wrong?" Lu Ping who followed him out asked puzzledly.
"Senior apprentice-brother Huo Ying, it's really a pity." Lin Tianbiao said, and couldn't help but turn back to glance at Huo Ying.
Lu Ping of course knew what he meant by pity, and didn't know what to say for a moment, so he could only remain silent.
The two of them walked towards the direction of Megrez Peak like this, but halfway there, Lin Tianbiao once again revealed a peculiar expression, and his gaze glanced around several times.
This time, without waiting for Lu Ping to question him, he had already taken the initiative to speak.
"Strange." He said.
"What's wrong?" Lu Ping asked.
"At noon, when I was with you, I could actually feel that we were constantly being watched." Lin Tianbiao said.
"Oh." Lu Ping wasn't too surprised, "It might be those masked men from Mizar Peak, called Phantom Envoys or something. They said to keep an eye on me. "
"But the problem is, there's no more now." Lin Tianbiao said.
He wasn't surprised that there was someone monitoring Lu Ping, as the fuse of the entire incident, he ought to receive more attention. But now, Lin Tianbiao actually couldn't sense that there was still someone monitoring him at noon, was it because he had already removed his suspicion towards Lu Ping? Or could it be that an even more brilliant person was sent, to the point that he himself couldn't sense it?
"There's no more, that's not a bad thing." In the end, Lu Ping wasn't as attentive as Lin Tianbiao, and said disapprovingly.
"Or maybe my level isn't high enough." Lin Tianbiao said, although in his heart he felt that the possibility of this was extremely small. The Green Peak Lin Family was most proficient in defense, and a keen sense of perception was indispensable to guard against sneak attacks. Although he was still at the realm of three spirits connected, the Lin Family's blood flowed in his veins, and inherited the Lin Family's outstanding sense of perception. To be able to make him unable to sense it, that person was absolutely an expert among experts. Lin Tianbiao didn't think that Lu Ping would send out such an expert to carry out surveillance.
"Don't worry about it, I'm not afraid of being watched." Lu Ping said with a smile.
