After being reborn, the cannon fodder junior sister quickly left the sect.

Chapter 44 Arrival at Floating Light Town

"Shangsi Festival? Right, in the Azure Continent, the Shangsi Festival is indeed celebrated every year on the third day of the third lunar month." Su Luo wondered, "But why is it celebrated in Floating Light Town?"

Actually, my senior sister was there too.

Chu Wenqing smiled sheepishly, "I only managed to contact her today through the communication stone. She has something to give me. Also, she wants to meet you."

"see me?"

"Yes, because I told her I was going to the human realm with you, she's curious and wants to see you." Chu Wenqing winked at Su Luo, hinting, "Luo Su, you're my good friend..."

Su Luo chuckled.

It seemed Chu Wenqing was reminding her that he hadn't revealed her secret, putting her at ease. This was also Su Luo's initial request.

After all, the fact that these two people from the mortal world were dragged into a novel by the Heavenly Dao and thus knew the future ending of this world's story was too shocking!

If the people of the Azure Continent found out, she and Chu Wenqing would have nowhere to hide. Those cultivation fanatics would definitely try every means to find them and interrogate them about how they connected with the Heavenly Dao. The worst outcome would likely be that they would be captured by some crazed demons or evil cultivators and have their bodies and souls refined. Su Luo didn't trust even those few ancestors who had the noble cause of saving the world.

Fortunately, Chu Wenqing also realized this. He was sensible and, in both his previous and current lives, he hadn't told anyone except Su Luo. After all, they were bound by fate...

Thinking of this, Su Luo winked back at him.

However, Su Luo remembered that Chu Wenqing's senior sister was named Feng Xiyue, and she was a powerful alchemist who was on par with Ye Danqing.

correct!

Su Luo made a fist with her right hand and punched it onto her left hand.

Since her abilities are similar to Ye Danqing's, perhaps we can ask her to take a look at Lin Ji's condition and maybe she can help him recover from the effects of the drug sooner!

Su Luo nodded in agreement, "Okay, then let's stay in Fuguang Town for one night before we leave."

Chu Wenqing thought Su Luo had agreed because of him, and was overjoyed. "Really? Su, uh, Luo Su! You're so kind!"

As he spoke, he reached out to grab Su Luo's hand, something he liked to do when he was happy. But to his surprise, his hand was slapped away with a "smack".

Lin Ji coldly rebuked, "Men and women should not touch each other!"

Chu Wenqing awkwardly withdrew his hand and apologized to Su Luo, "I'm sorry, I was just too happy..."

Su Luo didn't seem to care at all. "It's okay, I'm used to it."

Lin Ji's eyes darkened, and he suddenly regretted not making a move earlier.

What do you mean by "used to it"?! How many times has this guy held Su Luo's hand? He was just winking at Su Luo a moment ago, he's such an eyesore!

After Chu Wenqing apologized, he noticed that Lin Ji's expression had become even worse, his dark eyes filled with vigilance and wariness as he stared at him.

This look...

A sudden inspiration struck Chu Wenqing, and he realized what was going on. He then covered his mouth and grinned lewdly.

"I see...hehehe..."

Based on his years of experience reading online novels, Lin Ji's current wariness towards him was probably because he had a thing for Su Luo! Although he himself hadn't realized it yet... Hehehe!

Su Luo looked at him laughing like that, completely bewildered.

Lin Ji resumed his original expression, but his hand under the table quietly clenched into a fist.

Why do I suddenly feel like punching the person in front of me in the face?

……

Two days later, Su Luo's Wind Chariot finally arrived at the entrance of Floating Light Town in the afternoon.

Because there is a no-fly formation above Floating Light Town, cultivators can no longer use flying items from the entrance and can only walk in.

Su Luo nimbly jumped off the Wind Chaser, turned to look at Lin Ji, and saw that the young man had also jumped down gracefully and landed steadily.

Su Luo couldn't help but raise an eyebrow.

Seeing Lin Ji's seemingly gentle and weak appearance, she momentarily forgot that he was also a cultivator in the early stages of Foundation Establishment.

The two of them got off the boat, but Chu Wenqing was reluctant to leave. She lay on the boat, touching it back and forth, looking very reluctant to part with it.

"I never imagined that my first flying device would be an airship, one of only ten of which exist in the world! Ah, it's a pity I only got to ride it for two days; I wanted to ride it longer..."

Su Luo's lips twitched. "Chu Wenqing, come down quickly! It's getting late!"

She was wrong. She shouldn't have taken out the flying boat that Boss Zhou had given her just to save trouble! Chu Wenqing had been repeating that same sentence over and over again all the way here. She was so tired of hearing it!

"Get down! It's not like you can't sit down later on!"

Chu Wenqing touched it, reluctant to let go, "Luo Su, let me touch it a little longer..."

The flying boat had already attracted the attention of some knowledgeable people, and coupled with Chu Wenqing's actions just now, many people chuckled after hearing his words.

Su Luo: ……

Dude, please stop talking! The more you say, the more mistakes you'll make. The more you talk, the more you'll look poor and pathetic!

Sure enough, people around him had already begun to sympathize with him, saying, "This young man looks so handsome and extraordinary, how come he's so poor?"

"Yes, look how happy he is, it's probably his first time riding a flying device."

Some people sized up Su Luo, saying, "It seems that this Wind-Riding Boat belongs to that female cultivator. She's quite capable, managing to afford such a flying device."

"You can't tell a person by his appearance."

Some of the female cultivators stared intently at Lin Ji, who remained silent to the side, their cheeks flushed.

Although the boy was completely wrapped in a cloak, covering most of his body, he still possessed an undeniable air of mystery. In addition, the lower half of his face, which was vaguely visible, was exquisitely beautiful, making people even more curious about what he looked like.

Lin Ji loathed the blatant stares around him; if it weren't for the inappropriate location, he would have loved to gouge out those people's eyes!

Thinking of this, Lin Ji's killing intent towards Chu Wenqing intensified. If it weren't for him, he wouldn't have been treated like a monkey on display!

After Su Luo had been trying to persuade him for a long time, Chu Wenqing finally got up slowly to get down. Lin Ji looked at him intently, his dark eyes expressionless but exuding a chilling coldness. He commanded, "Get down, quickly."

If you keep dawdling, you might as well give up your life.

"Yes!"

Chu Wenqing felt a shiver run down his spine and his scalp tingle as he was stared at by Lin Ji's dark eyes. Without thinking, he disembarked from the flying boat at an astonishing speed.

Immediately, Lin Ji pulled down his cloak, leaned closer to Su Luo, and whispered, "Luo Su, let's go in quickly."

Su Luo gave him a "well done" look, immediately put away the Wind Chariot, and the crowd gradually dispersed.

Who would have thought that someone as eccentric as Chu Wenqing would obediently listen to Lin Ji? Truly, every creature has its nemesis!

Su Luo was in a good mood and smiled at Lin Ji, "Lin Ji, are you hungry? Is there anything you want to eat? I'll buy it for you."

Lin Ji stared unblinkingly at the smile on Su Luo's lips, his Adam's apple bobbing. "Candy."

Su Luo readily agreed, "Candy? Sure, you can have as much as you want!"

I never expected Lin Ji to like maltose so much! The few bags I bought for him a couple of days ago are all gone so quickly! Since he's such a good boy, I'll buy him more maltose next time…

Chu Wenqing was wondering why he had suddenly become afraid of Lin Ji, but when he walked behind and saw the harmonious atmosphere between the two in front of him, he immediately showed a maternal smile.

To be honest, the two are quite a good match...

At this moment, Qingya Zi and his two disciples were flying on their swords, rushing towards Fuguang Town.

Along the way, Qin Xiu looked at Qing Ya Zi, who stood on the sword with an air of otherworldly grace, with a face full of reverence.

"Master is truly amazing! Even after so much time has passed, he was still able to locate Su Luo based on a single aura! It's as if he could foresee the future!"

Ye Danqing felt proud. "Yes, Master is indeed amazing."

To complete their ancestor's mission, when they followed their master to search for Su Luo, neither he nor Qin Xiu had much confidence. After all, the world was vast, and Su Luo was nowhere to be found. Even the previous hundred or so disciples had all failed; where did they even begin to search? It was like looking for a needle in a haystack.

Unexpectedly, things took a dramatic turn. Master suddenly remembered that he had given Su Luo a protective ring, which still contained a trace of his spiritual energy. Following that trace of energy, Master accurately sensed Su Luo's location and led them there. Truly worthy of Elder Qingya Zi!

But Qingya Zi, who was flying ahead, did not look relaxed at all; instead, his brows were furrowed.

Last night, while he was meditating, his communication stone suddenly lit up, and then Sect Leader Liu solemnly told him some important news.

The Ning Wanshuang they knew before was actually a demon in disguise! After killing the Fourth Elder and imprisoning the real Ning Wanshuang, he infiltrated the Tianyi Sect, which is why he was able to enter the Trial Tower silently and take the Demon Sword!

Upon hearing this news, he was both shocked and furious. He even lost control of his aura for a moment, and the oppressive aura directly woke up Ye Danqing and the other person who were sleeping.

The two disciples asked him in surprise what had happened, but he had already been instructed by Sect Leader Liu, so he shook his head to indicate that nothing was wrong.

This matter is of utmost importance and must not be revealed to outsiders! If outsiders were to find out that a demon had killed the fourth elder of the Tianyi Sect and had remained hidden right under their noses without being discovered, the Tianyi Sect would lose all face! It would become a laughingstock in the cultivation world!

Furthermore, both of his disciples are infatuated with his junior disciple Ning. If they knew about her current situation, they probably wouldn't be interested in finding Su Luo. He'd rather wait until he found Su Luo and returned to the sect before considering anything else.

Qingya Zi snapped out of his reverie and calmly instructed the two behind him, "Once you find Su Luo, bring her back to Tianyi Sect immediately according to the plan."

This was Qingya Zi's arrogance; he hadn't even considered that Su Luo would refuse. But even if Su Luo refused to go back, he wouldn't care. She was only at the early stage of Foundation Establishment, and Ye Danqing and Qin Xiu were more than capable of dealing with her.

Ye Danqing nodded in agreement, "Yes, Master."

Qin Xiu asked instinctively, "What about Master?"

"I need to go somewhere first. You all go ahead, and I will catch up soon." Qingya Zi put his hands behind his back, his eyes full of seriousness as he looked ahead.

Qin Xiu and Ye Danqing exchanged a glance, then fell silent and continued on their way.
