Perhaps she sensed something, the girl, who had been expressionless and cold all along the way, suddenly glanced at the side of the road when she walked past Lu Chen. Lu Chen happened to be looking at her as well. Their gazes met in midair. After a brief collision, they parted as if nothing had happened.
The young lady with a peerlessly beautiful appearance, aloof and outstanding temperament went all the way up the mountain. It was only then that the numerous Kunlun disciples at the mountain gate heaved a sigh of relief. They whispered to each other, but it seemed that no one knew the young lady's identity. However, many people recognized the old man who walked at the front. He was the powerful Jin Dan Friar Zhuoxian of their sect. His identity and status weren't simple. He was the junior brother of the current Sect Master of Kunlun, Reverend Idle Month. At the same time, he was also the second disciple of Hakushin Jinkun, who cultivated in Closed Door Cultivation on the "Winter Peak", one of the four wondrous peaks in the sky and clouds.
The little girl, who was personally brought up the mountain by a person with strength and background that couldn't be underestimated, naturally attracted a lot of people's attention. Soon, some people guessed that she might be the new disciple that Master Zhuoxian had just accepted. That was the good fortune that the little girl had accumulated over several lifetimes.
When Lu Chen walked out of the mountain gate, he looked back and saw that the group of people had already disappeared into the distance. His eyes flashed, but in the end, he gently shook his head and smiled. There was a strange expression on his face.
"Brother Lu, what are you smiling about?" Yi Xin asked when she saw his expression.
"Nothing." Lu Chen answered perfunctorily and said with a smile, "Let's go. We'll go to Kunwu City and see if that stupid dog has starved to death."
Yi Xin agreed with a smile. Soon after, she suddenly glared at Lu Chen and said with a somewhat suspicious attitude, "Brother Lu, could it be that you entrusted the wrong person to make Atsu starve?"
…
"Even if I starve to death, I won't be able to reach it!"
In the deserted Black Hill Pavilion, the fatty Old Ma angrily complained to Lu Chen, "I say, Lu Chen, where did you find such a vicious dog? He's too hateful!"
"Atsu is not a vicious dog!" Yi Xin's voice came from the side. At this moment, she was squatting on the ground with a smile on her face. She threw a few words here and then turned away. The shiny black dog Atsu was jumping around her happily, wagging its tail and rubbing its head against Yi Xin's body. From time to time, it happily stuck out its tongue to lick Yi Xin's face and hands, making Yi Xin giggle non-stop.
"What's wrong? You look a little haggard," Lu Chen said to Old Ma with a smile.
"Nonsense, you have such a dog at home, how can it make people happy?" Old Ma said angrily.
"What's wrong with Atsu? I remember that this dog is very stupid, but it seems to be quite honest. "
Old Ma snorted and said, "I've never seen such a greedy dog. It seems to think about eating all day long. Other dogs need to eat for three days, but it can finish in one day. And no matter if it's raw or cooked, no matter where I hide, this dog always seems to be able to dig three feet into the ground and find me. In the end, I became so angry that I stopped buying food, and it actually began to steal the spirit herbs on my counter! "
"Huh?" Lu Chen was also a little surprised when he heard this. He said, "How can this be? I didn't notice it before."
As he said this, he waved to Atsu and called out, "Atsu, come here."
The Black Dog immediately jumped over happily. Its movements were vigorous, although its hind legs were still limping.
Lu Chen squatted down and touched Atsu's head. He looked at it again and found that Atsu seemed to have grown a lot this time, and its fur was bright and smooth. It seemed that it really ate well …
He looked up at Old Ma and smiled. Then, Old Ma glared at him.
"You took good care of it," Lu Chen said to Old Ma seriously, "I think you are very suitable to raise a dog."
"Raise your head!" Old Ma waved his hand and said, "Take it away quickly, or I will kill it sooner or later."
Lu Chen smiled and wanted to say something, but Yi Xin next to him came over and said with a smile, "Brother Lu, let's take Atsu back to the mountain."
"Ah, that's good!" Before Lu Chen could speak, Old Ma had already come over and agreed with a smile, not giving Lu Chen a chance to refuse. Lu Chen pushed the fat man away and said to Yi Xin, "I am still a handyman disciple. It is not convenient for me to take it up the mountain."
Yi Xin waved her hand and said with a smile, "It's okay. I can take Atsu up the mountain. I can raise it."
Lu Chen shook his head and said with a smile, "You really do like this stupid dog a lot, huh."
Yi Xin showed a loving expression on her face. She touched Atsu's head and said with a smile, "We have gone through hardships together, right, Atsu?"
Atsu barked, "Woof, woof, woof …"
…
While Yi Xin was playing with Atsu in the small courtyard, Lu Chen and Old Ma walked to the side of the veranda and whispered to each other while watching.
"You know what happened to the He brothers?"
"Yes." Old Ma responded, then glanced at Yi Xin who was playing with Atsu, especially at the light scar on her cheek, and then said lightly, "I didn't know this little girl was so cruel."
Lu Chen said, "There's nothing a person won't do when they're cornered."
Old Ma turned to look at him and said, "Did others force her, or did you force her?"
Lu Chen said, "If I force her, do you think she will still follow me?"
"That's true." Old Ma admitted this point, then said, "Now that He Gang has been expelled from the sect, He Yi didn't speak up for his only brother?"
Lu Chen said, "He has too many troubles. Many influential families in Kunwu City have a lot of hidden forces in the Kunlun Party. Now everyone hates him. If he's smart, he'll hide from this storm and come out after at least a year of Closed Door Meditation."
Old Ma smiled and nodded. Just as he was about to say something, he suddenly heard Lu Chen say, "By the way, He Gang should still be hiding in Kunwu City, but he's hidden under the arrangement of his big brother. Go find that guy's whereabouts and residence, then tell me. "
Old Ma was startled and said, "Do you have a grudge against He Gang?"
"No."
Old Ma hesitated for a moment, then glanced at Yi Xin on the other side and said softly, "Little Lu, don't tell me … you want to help her vent her anger?"
Lu Chen's face was expressionless as he said, "No. I just feel that as long as this person doesn't die, he might be an idle person. Knowing a little bit of his whereabouts and movements might be useful in the future. "
Old Ma thought for a moment and said, "Okay, I'll handle this matter, but it may take some time to find him."
"No hurry, take your time."
Old Ma suddenly smiled and looked at Lu Chen, saying, "What value does that trash He Gang have? Are you aiming at He Yi?"
Lu Chen sighed and said, "That damn baldy is used to being a hands-off shopkeeper. He just told me to look for him, then ran to the immortal city thousands of miles away. In this huge Kunlun Party with countless disciples, it's really like looking for a needle in a haystack. But finally, I thought of something. "
Old Ma's eyes lit up and he said, "What is it?"
Lu Chen smiled faintly and said, "That Devil Cult spy wants to do such a big thing, so he must be planning something big. He must also be an extremely outstanding talent. Of course, such a person is also outstanding in the Kunlun Sect. Therefore, the direction that I'm looking for may be those elite figures … "
"He Yi should also be considered a powerful figure."
