Even after Fu Yiyun and Bai Luo left, Liu Xu didn't appear.
Since she wasn't with Liu Xu, the plot should've changed a lot …
Shi Sheng didn't know when they would meet again, so he decided to go back and fix the road first.
On the way back to the Demon Sect, they had to pass by a small town. Shi Sheng didn't plan on stopping, but he heard a familiar voice.
"Sect Master, Left Protector …"
Shi Sheng was forced to stop. That person ran out of the town's entrance.
"Why are you still here?" Ting Feng asked with a frown.
They had been delayed for so many days. These people should've returned to the Demon Sect long ago.
That person looked a bit guilty. "Zhou Zhi saved a girl, so we were delayed here."
Shi Sheng's heart skipped a beat. He had a bad feeling about this.
"What's the name of the girl you saved?"
"Liu Xu. She's quite pretty."
I knew it.
Plot-sama wouldn't let me off.
"Go call her out. If Zhou Zhi doesn't want to leave, tell him he doesn't need to return to the Demon Sect anymore," Shi Sheng instructed.
"That girl?"
Shi Sheng stared at him with a faint smile. "You can stay with us."
That person shook his head and ran inside. Soon, several people came out pulling carriages.
There were three carriages in total, one more than before.
Zhou Zhi was a somewhat handsome young man. He sat in the last carriage.
When he saw Shi Sheng, he immediately jumped down. "Sect Master."
Shi Sheng looked towards the third carriage. A pair of fair hands slowly lifted the curtains, revealing a pretty face.
She cautiously glanced in Shi Sheng's direction. When she saw Shi Sheng, her eyes lit up and she put on a pleasantly surprised expression. "Miss Wu Zheng, why are you here?"
Liu Xu's eyes were filled with curiosity. Just now, these people called her Sect Master. What sect's Sect Master?
From what she knew, she had always been alone. How did she suddenly become a Sect Master in such a short time?
Shi Sheng ignored her and looked down at Zhou Zhi, who was standing in front of the horse.
Zhou Zhi hurriedly said, "Sect Master, Miss Liu is alone and injured. She looks quite pitiful. Can you let her come back with us?"
"No." Shi Sheng refused without any hesitation.
"Sect Master …" Zhou Zhi's expression changed slightly. "I will take good care of her. I won't cause you any trouble."
"No." Shi Sheng continued to refuse.
"Big Brother Zhou, forget it. Miss Wu Zheng probably doesn't like me." Liu Xu bit her lips and said softly.
Her aggrieved expression and pitiful eyes made the other disciples beside her slightly moved.
Shi Sheng smiled maliciously. "Liu Xu, why are you acting pitiful in front of me? Do you think I'm like these men? Can't you take a step after seeing a little beauty? "
Liu Xu looked as if she had been humiliated. Her face turned pale and her body trembled. "Miss Wu Zheng, even if you don't like me, you don't have to humiliate me like this."
"Who do you think you are? Do you deserve my humiliation?" Shi Sheng sneered.
"Sect Leader!" Zhou Zhi walked back to Liu Xu's carriage and looked at the Shi Sheng with some dissatisfaction. "Miss Liu is a woman. You don't have to speak so harshly."
Shi Sheng: "…" What are you blabbering on about, you cannon fodder?
"Big Brother Zhou, you don't have to speak up for me. I'll just leave." Liu Xu was about to get off the carriage.
Zhou Zhi stopped her. "Miss Liu, it's okay. I'll take you away."
"How can that be … Big Brother Zhou, I can't implicate you." Liu Xu shook her head vigorously, her face full of apprehension.
"What do you mean by implicating? You're a woman. How can I be at ease letting you leave alone?"
"Big Brother Zhou …"
Shi Sheng: "…" Damn, it's a pity that you guys aren't acting in Qiong Yao dramas.
Shi Sheng gestured at Ting Feng with his chin. Ting Feng was confused. What?
Shi Sheng: "…" They don't have any chemistry.
Ting Feng felt very wronged. He had only been with her for a short time. What chemistry could they have?
"Sect Leader, why don't we let Miss Liu come back with us?"
"Sect Leader …"
"Are you guys rebelling?" Shi Sheng looked at them calmly.
"We don't dare." The person who spoke up for Liu Xu immediately lowered his head.
They had experienced how violent their new sect leader was.
Shi Sheng looked at Zhou Zhi, but his words were directed at the others. "Whoever still wants to go with her can come with us."
The others didn't move.
"Sect Leader, are you really going to be so unreasonable?" Zhou Zhi questioned loudly.
"Unreasonable?" Shi Sheng glared at him with a serious expression. "Am I not doing this for your own good? Miss Liu Xu is so beautiful. Many people will covet her if you bring her back. Do you want to have so many love rivals for no reason? "
Zhou Zhi obviously liked Liu Xu.
So when Shi Sheng said this, Zhou Zhi's expression changed.
Only a small portion of the Demon Sect members had a partner. The rest were all single.
Shi Sheng was good-looking, but he was so violent. Who would dare to have any improper thoughts?
Liu Xu was such a weak girl. If she went back with him, wouldn't those people go crazy?
Zhou Zhi was enlightened. He was even more convinced that he had to bring Liu Xu away. The Demon Sect had been severely suppressed these past few years. They didn't have much of a future.
"Left Guardian, please tell Sect Leader that I'm grateful for his nurturing these past few years. If there's a chance, I'll repay him."
Zhou Zhi's words were obviously directed at Jiang Zhan, who was still recuperating in seclusion.
He glanced at Shi Sheng. Then, he said gently to Liu Xu, "Miss Liu, let's go."
Liu Xu was like a frightened deer. Her watery eyes were filled with guilt and worry. "Big Brother Zhou, this …"
"It's okay. Let's go." Zhou Zhi thought that Liu Xu was worried about him. His heart softened. He pushed her forward and jumped into the carriage.
"Brothers, we'll meet again if fate wills it." Zhou Zhi cupped his fists at the others.
Someone advised Zhou Zhi.
Zhou Zhi seemed to have made up his mind. He bid farewell to them one by one.
The carriage left in the opposite direction. The afterglow of the setting sun cast a long shadow on the carriage.
Shi Sheng looked on thoughtfully.
After a few minutes, he ordered his men to set off.
Ting Feng and Shi Sheng walked side by side. "Sect Leader, why didn't you let Liu Xu go up the mountain?"
"If I don't like her, why did I let her go up the mountain and make things difficult for me?" Shi Sheng's eyes sparkled. The corners of his mouth curled up slightly. "Why? Left Guardian, do you like her too?"
Ting Feng hurriedly shook his head. "Liu Xu isn't my type."
"Is that so?" Shi Sheng murmured. Then, he asked, "Then what type do you like?"
Ting Feng looked ahead in confusion. "I don't know. Without meeting that person, who knows what kind of person I'll fall in love with?"
"You have a point."
Without meeting the right person, who knows if I'll fall in love with a scumbag or an idiot?

Little Fairy: I want to report you. Son, your wife said you're an idiot.
Shi Sheng: What did you say?
Little Fairy: … I didn't say anything.
Feng Ci: Wife, she said you said I'm an idiot. Did you say that?
Shi Sheng: (Draws sword) Don't believe the words of an idiot. Be good and stand further away.
Little Fairy: … What are you doing? Let me tell you, I'm your mother.
Shi Sheng: I'm your daughter too!
