"Where is he now?" Mei Ji couldn't help but ask, unable to enter the Buddha's Light Pagoda with her cultivation.
Only Mu Shuyang could help her enter the Buddha's Light Pagoda now. "I can't leave for now."
"If you don't leave now, you won't have a chance to leave later." Nangong Luo ignored Mei Ji's words and led them through layers of barriers, quickly leaving the Ten Thousand Buddhas Sect.
"We've left the Ten Thousand Buddhas Sect." Chu Lingwei had been observing their surroundings. Second Senior Brother had already taken them away from the Ten Thousand Buddhas Sect.
"Yes, if we didn't leave now, you would all die." After leaving the Ten Thousand Buddhas Sect, Nangong Luo led them, stepping onto their spirit swords. In less than fifteen minutes, they were far from the Ten Thousand Buddhas Sect's territory.
"Right here." Nangong Luo stopped at a safe place and set them down. "Stay here, and don't even think about entering the Ten Thousand Buddhas Sect again."
With that, Nangong Luo's figure flashed, and he was already a hundred miles away on his spirit sword.
"Second Senior Brother!"
Chu Lingwei's face darkened. She had been sent out of the Ten Thousand Buddhas Sect by her Second Senior Brother.
"Little Junior Sister, stay here obediently. If you dare to enter the Ten Thousand Buddhas Sect privately again, Master will surely punish you severely!" Nangong Luo's voice echoed into Chu Lingwei's ears.
"Second Senior Brother, how could you do this?" Hearing her Second Senior Brother's words, Chu Lingwei was furious. He had deliberately taken her away from the Ten Thousand Buddhas Sect.
There was no reply.
"We've been sent out." Mei Ji was stunned. They had been sent out of the Ten Thousand Buddhas Sect so abruptly.
"Yes, we were sent out. They were worried we would cause them trouble."
Chu Lingwei shrugged, suppressing the anger in her heart. She decided she wouldn't be so good to her Second Senior Brother anymore. She had trusted him so much.
Mei Ji heard Chu Lingwei's words and understood that her senior brother had sent her out. She couldn't help but burst into laughter.
"Chu Lingwei, so they don't fully trust you either." Mei Ji covered her mouth and giggled. It was too amusing.
"They are just worried I might encounter danger." Chu Lingwei rolled her eyes and looked at Mei Ji. "You should be thinking about how you're going to enter the Ten Thousand Buddhas Sect. I've been ordered not to enter, so you'll have to find a way yourself."
Mei Ji's laughter immediately stopped. She still needed to enter the Ten Thousand Buddhas Sect to save her master.
"Chu Lingwei, you've caused me so much trouble." Mei Ji's face was full of distress. If it weren't for Chu Lingwei, she would probably still be in the Ten Thousand Buddhas Sect, trying to find a way to save her master.
"If I hadn't saved you just now, you might have been captured by those ghost cultivators." Chu Lingwei was speechless. She had been sent out by her Second Senior Brother and others because she had saved Mei Ji, and now Mei Ji was blaming her.
"I definitely would have been fine. I'm not injured at all." Mei Ji's face showed a charming smile. She had fought with those ghost cultivators for so long and hadn't sustained a single injury.
"That's because someone protected you." If it weren't for Mu Shuyang, Mei Ji would not be standing here so well right now.
Mei Ji rarely showed shyness, her face flushed, making her even more alluring.
"Mei Ji, have you really developed feelings for Mu Shuyang?" Chu Lingwei had never seen Mei Ji act like this before. This was clearly the appearance of someone who had fallen in love.
Mei Ji puffed out her chest, her smile turning into a giggle. "Weiwei, don't forget, I am a disciple of the ** Sect."
"I haven't forgotten. However, I also haven't forgotten that you seem to be cultivating the path of ruthlessness." Chu Lingwei reminded Mei Ji. She had heard Mei Ji mention that she was cultivating the path of ruthlessness.
Mei Ji's expression changed slightly. She certainly hadn't forgotten that she was cultivating the path of ruthlessness.
"We who cultivate the path of ruthlessness must constantly forget our emotions. Don't worry, I can definitely do it." Chu Lingwei couldn't help but secretly admire her. Mu Shuyang's identity was unclear, yet she dared to use him on her path of ruthlessness.
She wanted to see if her path of ruthlessness would succeed.
"Then I wish you success." Chu Lingwei looked around. There were no cultivators, nor any ghost cultivators.
This place was thousands of miles away from the Ten Thousand Buddhas Sect. Her Second Senior Brother had left her here, hoping she wouldn't be discovered by the ghost cultivators.
"I will definitely succeed." Mei Ji's eyes were firm. No one could stop her from ascending the path of spiritual cultivation.
Chu Lingwei remained noncommittal.
"Mei Ji, take care." Chu Lingwei took a step back and bid Mei Ji farewell.
"Chu Lingwei, I'm leaving?" Mei Ji's brows furrowed tightly. They were now in the same boat, and she was going to leave Mei Ji here alone again.
"Yes, with Mu Shuyang by your side, I won't be safe."
Chu Lingwei could sense Mu Shuyang's hostility towards her. Being with him was no better than facing those ghost cultivators alone.
At least the ghost cultivators wouldn't attack her in secret.
"He..." Mei Ji's heart sank. Her feeling was not wrong.
"Weiwei, where are you going now?" Mei Ji didn't stop her. Mu Shuyang was a dangerous person, and she wouldn't force Chu Lingwei.
"I'm going to find Third Senior Brother and the others." Third Senior Brother and the others had not entered the Ten Thousand Buddhas Sect. Chu Lingwei now had to choose between secretly entering the Ten Thousand Buddhas Sect again or finding Third Senior Brother.
Mei Ji nodded. She had to enter the Ten Thousand Buddhas Sect, and she needed to find Mu Shuyang.
The two of them were indeed going in different directions.
"Take care."
Chu Lingwei, with the illusion cat, got onto her flying artifact and quickly departed.
Mei Ji watched Chu Lingwei leave, her eyes changing.
"Come out."
Mu Shuyang appeared before Mei Ji. It seemed he had been here for a long time.
"Why do you dislike Chu Lingwei so much?" Mei Ji was very confused. If Chu Lingwei hadn't asked her to save Mu Shuyang back then, she wouldn't have interfered.
"I don't know." Mu Shuyang frowned. If he had to give a reason, it would be a premonition.
"Chu Lingwei is my friend. I don't want you to harm her." Mei Ji's voice was very serious. Chu Lingwei had been kind to her.
Mu Shuyang remained silent. The harm had already been done.
"Mu Shuyang, you know my character." Mei Ji snorted. A person who dared to harm her friend was a scourge if left around.
"Mm."
Mu Shuyang responded with a faint "Mm," acknowledging her words.
Chu Lingwei left quickly, flying far away.
"Cat cat, are they following us?" While she was with Mei Ji, Chu Lingwei had felt Mu Shuyang's presence nearby. She had immediately parted ways with Mei Ji.
"No, he didn't follow."
Chu Lingwei figured that Mu Shuyang had come to find Mei Ji and wouldn't follow her.
"Weiwei, that Mu Shuyang is so scary." The illusion cat felt that Mu Shuyang had already discovered it.
"What's so scary about it?"
Chu Lingwei snorted. If he had truly commanded those snow spirit beasts to surround her, she would never let him off, even if he was some ancient monster.
The illusion cat shrunk its neck and made no sound.
