Su Qingjun's expression suddenly changed and she became nervous. She hastily asked, "Master, what happened? Are my father and mother all right?"
Masato Kihara shook her head and said, "The news just came from Fuyunji. It said that a riot has recently occurred in Kunwu City. The cause is still unknown for the time being, but in the end, it caused a lot of trouble. Several aristocratic families in the city were invaded and suffered varying degrees of damage. Among them were the Bai family, the Sun family, the Liu family, the Yi family, and the Su family."
Seeing that Su Qingjun's complexion had turned pale and looked worried, Masato Kihara hastily shook her hand and said, "Don't worry. They didn't say anything about casualties. They just mentioned that each family suffered losses. It's very likely that their family's property was damaged. But I know the situation at home, and I also understand that what you're most worried about right now is your parents at home, so I came to tell you. "At this point, Masato Kihara paused for a moment and revealed a loving and gentle expression.
"If you want to go back, I'll help you ask your Martial Uncle Tianlan for a favor and let you go back."
Su Qingjun's heart was moved and she hastily said, "There's no need, Master. I just received a task and have to go back to Kunlun Party. It's best if we can solve the two matters at the same time."
Masato Kihara was startled, but she immediately nodded and said, "There's actually such a coincidence. That's good. No matter what happened at home, you should go back and take a look."
Su Qingjun nodded and said, "Yes, disciple understands. I'll pack my luggage now and go to Lu … to Fuyunji to explain the situation. I'll go back tomorrow. "
"Mm." Masato Kihara then pulled her to the side, carefully exhorted her, and asked if she needed any help. After Su Qingjun said that everything was fine, she smiled and told her that it was rare for her to go back and that there seemed to be nothing urgent in Immortal City recently. If no one urged her, she could stay in Kunlun City and didn't need to rush back.
Su Qingjun was a bit hesitant. She glanced at Kunlun Palace Hall and asked in a low voice, "Master, this isn't good, is it …"
Masato Kihara secretly sighed in her heart. She asked this question instead of directly refusing and saying that she would come back as soon as possible after finishing her business, which meant that Su Qingjun was still worried about her parents and wanted to stay in Kunwu City to accompany them for a while. She was just too embarrassed to say it before.
Who said that there were no close friends in the world?
His expression didn't change. He just smiled and said, "It's not a big deal. Didn't I just say that there's nothing serious here? Even if there's something, there are many people here to support it. There's still your master and Martial Uncle Tianlan. With these people here, do you think the sky will collapse without you?"
Su Qingjun was a bit surprised and said, "Yes."
Masato Kihara said again, "You can go back without worry. You don't need to worry about Zhenxianmeng. If there's really something that needs you to come back, I'll write to you and explain it. You can come back by yourself then."
Su Qingjun looked grateful and nodded. "Yes, thank you, Master."
Masato Kihara smiled kindly. He looked at Su Qingjun and sighed in his heart. After saying a few more words, he left.
Su Qingjun turned around and returned to the room. She saw White Lotus standing on the side with a slight frown. She seemed to be thinking about something. When Su Qingjun walked over, White Lotus cast a glance at her and smiled. However, the smile seemed a bit forced. She said, "Big Sister, are you going back?"
Su Qingjun said, "Yes. Something happened at home. My parents are old and they don't have a son to take care of them. I'm a bit worried, so I still have to go back and have a look."
White Lotus nodded. At this time, she didn't say anything more. She simply said, "Then be careful on your way back. Have a safe journey."
Su Qingjun took a deep look at her and said, "I know. Thank you."
…
Masato Kihara left Su Qingjun's house and walked along the road. Soon after, he came to a fork in the road. One side was the main road. Walking forward, he could see the majestic cornice of Fuyunji Hall and Kunlun Hall. The other side was a little smaller. It turned into the depths of the forest. Looking at the direction, it was to the back of the mountain.
Masato Kihara looked in the direction of the two halls. He looked calm and indifferent. Then he waved his sleeve and picked up the bottle gourd at his waist. He found a stone on the side of the road and sat down. Then he raised his head and drank to his heart's content.
When the wine entered his throat, the fragrance of the wine overflowed. He slightly narrowed his eyes and let out a satisfied sigh. At the same time, there was a flash of light in his eyes. He glanced around in front of and behind him.
There was no one nearby.
Masato Kihara sat for a while and drank two mouthfuls of wine. He was like an old and tired drunkard. Then he slowly stood up and hung the bottle gourd at his waist. He slowly strode forward and walked on the path.
The path led into the distance. After entering the forest, the light was a little dim. Masato Kihara walked all the way. His pace seemed slow but was actually fast. Soon, he walked near the exit on the other side of the forest.
At this moment, a figure suddenly came out from behind a big tree near the edge of the forest. He waved at him. Masato Kihara glanced at him. His expression didn't change. It was as if he had already expected that there would be someone here. He didn't say anything and just walked straight over.
In the dim shadow of the tree stood a man who was much younger than him. However, in terms of seniority, he was actually of the same generation as him. His position in the sect and even in Zhenxianmeng was probably even higher than him.
There weren't many people like this. Lu Chen was one of them.
Seeing Masato Kihara coming over, Lu Chen nodded to him as a greeting. Then he asked, "How is it?"
Masato Kihara said, "It's fine. She promised to go back and will leave tomorrow."
Lu Chen looked relieved and nodded without saying anything. Spiritual Master Muyuan looked at him and couldn't help but ask, "You were the one who told me about this. Why didn't you tell Qingjun yourself? Instead, you came to me and talked to me for half a day, saying that I still owe you a favor from back then and wanted me to help you?"
Lu Chen snorted and said, "Anyway, you probably forgot that favor on purpose. It's useless to talk about other things. Just use it on this."
Masato Kihara spat and said angrily, "Nonsense, am I that kind of person?"
Lu Chen was too lazy to pay attention to him. He just said, "I mentioned to her about going back to Kunlun Mountain. However, a few days after that, Qingjun didn't respond. Most likely she was still hesitant, or didn't dare to fully believe my words. But it's not a big deal. She should be like this … But it's different for you. Among the few people she trusts the most in this world, you should be one of them. "
Master Muyuan smiled, but subconsciously raised his head to look at the sky. Lu Chen also followed his gaze and looked up. Through the gaps between the branches and leaves of the trees, they could see the clear sky outside. White clouds floated in the blue sky. A breeze blew and the world was quiet.
"The weather is good."
"Yes."
"Tell her to leave early. If the weather turns bad, it may be difficult to travel."
"Yes."
"When you came to find me, did you also feel that something was wrong?"
"I don't know whether it's right or not, but there is such an outstanding disciple behind Tetsu. It doesn't matter if I'm old, but if it's possible, I should at least leave some hope so that I can face the spirits of the ancestors in heaven."
"Well … She is fortunate to have a master like you."
