"I heard a cultivator say that a seventh-tier spiritual beast appeared here, and a group of cultivators who entered were attacked," Mei Ji said, familiar with the place. "In the end, it seemed a cultivator at the Huatian Realm passed by and rescued these cultivators."
"Weiwei, do you think this Huatian Realm cultivator might be your father?"
"I don't know." Chu Lingwei's eyes were full of disappointment. "Are the rescued cultivators still at Bingji Cliff?"
Mei Ji shook her head. "I heard they suffered heavy casualties this time and left long ago."
Chu Lingwei sighed, a little helpless. "It seems I have no fate to meet my father."
"That's not necessarily true. Perhaps you just didn't see your father." If Chu Lingwei's father didn't want her to see him, he had plenty of ways.
Chu Lingwei remained noncommittal. She had met her senior brother right after leaving Linglongjian, so it was impossible to have met her father.
"I think your father should have gone deeper into Bingji Cliff," Mei Ji said seriously, analyzing the words of the cultivator who told her about the incident. "I think the rescuer must have gone towards the center of Bingji Cliff. Do you think your father might have gone in search of a great treasure?"
Only Chu Lingwei knew that there was no great treasure in Bingji Cliff.
"Now all I can do is search again. I hope father is still here." Chu Lingwei had no hope, as the tracking talismans she sent out had yielded no information.
There was also a possibility that her father was deliberately avoiding her.
Why had her father always been hiding from her?
Was she not strong enough yet?
"Never mind. Since I can't find him, I'll leave it to fate." Chu Lingwei summoned her flying artifact and left quickly with Mei Ji.
"Weiwei, where are we going?" Mei Ji noticed Chu Lingwei was heading towards the exit of Bingji Cliff. "You're not planning to leave here, are you?"
"I'm seeing you off." Chu Lingwei had to re-enter Bingji Cliff. Her senior brother had just said that her third senior brother had arrived, and he should be here for a reason.
"No, I don't want to leave now," Mei Ji said decisively. "Our sect is rushing here, and I want to meet up with them."
"Mei Ji, aren't you worried about that cultivator Mu Shuyang?" Chu Lingwei laughed. She had just escaped Mu Shuyang and now she wanted to stay in Bingji Cliff? "You might run into him again?"
Mei Ji's expression became unnatural. She coughed lightly and turned her head to look into the distance. "I naturally have my ways."
Chu Lingwei was a little suspicious. Mei Ji seemed to want to experience her love tribulation through Mu Shuyang. However, that Mu Shuyang was no ordinary person, and whether she could overcome it would depend on Mei Ji's skill.
"How about here?" Chu Lingwei stopped in front of a cave, beside a beautiful glacial landscape.
"Weiwei, you're becoming naughty," Mei Ji suddenly realized that Chu Lingwei had no intention of seeing her off at all. This little girl dared to tease her.
"Is that so?"
Chu Lingwei found it amusing. As an onlooker, she could see that Mei Ji felt differently about Mu Shuyang. "Mei Ji, in matters of the heart, having high cultivation doesn't mean everything will go as you wish."
Upon hearing Chu Lingwei's感慨, Mei Ji covered her mouth and chuckled slyly. "Weiwei, actually, your state of mind is more suited to our Hehuan Sect. There are very few women who can achieve this."
"Wait here for the person you're waiting for. I'm leaving now." Chu Lingwei summoned her flying artifact and headed deeper into Bingji Cliff.
Every hundred li she traveled, she would send out tracking talismans in all directions. This way, as long as there were any traces of her father, she would be notified immediately.
"Senior Brother."
After another five days, as Senior Brother Leng Xingzhi had not appeared, Chu Lingwei sent him a sound transmission talisman.
She had left so suddenly, Senior Brother must have been watching her.
"Weiwei, you finally remembered you have a Senior Brother?" Leng Xingzhi lightly leaped onto Chu Lingwei's flying artifact and stood there.
"Senior Brother, I knew you would be here." Chu Lingwei never doubted that her Senior Brother would abandon her. Thinking of her father's lack of news, her smile turned to disappointment. "Unfortunately, I haven't found father."
"Uncle Chu's appearance at Bingji Cliff must be for an important reason." Leng Xingzhi stepped forward to comfort her. He did not yet have the right to participate in the Chu family's affairs.
Chu Lingwei sighed. "I can only think of it this way for now."
She directly sat on the flying artifact, watching the ice glaciers flash by below. The snow-capped mountains reflected the sunlight, emitting a dazzling seven-colored glow.
"Senior Brother, when do you think I'll be able to see father?" Chu Lingwei didn't know what secrets her father was keeping from her. She tried not to think about it, but couldn't control herself.
"When you become powerful enough, you will see them." Only when Weiwei's cultivation improved further would she be able to see them.
Chu Lingwei looked up at her Senior Brother. Thinking of the large tree in her mind, she had a bold guess.
Perhaps, her father and the others wanted her to help them with something.
"I will. I will definitely improve my cultivation quickly and not disappoint them."
Two days later.
Chu Lingwei met her third senior brother, Su Yan.
"Junior Sister, are you well?" Su Yan's lips curled into a smile upon seeing his Senior Brother and Junior Sister together.
"Thank you for your concern, Third Senior Brother. I am very well." Chu Lingwei always felt that Third Senior Brother's smile held a certain wisdom that made her cheeks flush slightly.
"Third Junior Brother, why have you come here?" Leng Xingzhi stepped forward, his gentle voice like a spring breeze. "There are no opportunities to be found here."
"I am here on the Master's orders."
Hearing Third Senior Brother's words, Chu Lingwei became curious and looked at him.
"At this time, major sects are sending people to Bingji Cliff. Master is worried it might be detrimental to our sect," Su Yan said tactfully. With all the sects converging here, this was also a good place for an alliance.
"I will go with Third Junior Brother," Leng Xingzhi said, understanding the Master's concerns.
"Thank you, Senior Brother."
This time, the Master had only sent him alone. Having Senior Brother accompany him would be better.
"I'll go with you all." Perhaps at this time, she could still find some news related to her father.
"Junior Sister, Second Senior Brother is very worried about you." Currently, Second Senior Brother was in seclusion in his cultivation cave and would not be able to come out for a while.
"I heard Second Senior Brother is in seclusion?"
Chu Lingwei did not expect Second Senior Brother to go into seclusion so suddenly; it was very unlike him.
"Master's orders."
If it weren't for Master's orders, Nangong Luo would have already stirred up trouble in Bingji Cliff by now.
Chu Lingwei couldn't help but shed a tear of sympathy for Second Senior Brother.
"Third Senior Brother, are these people really here for the great treasure in Bingji Cliff?" Whether a great treasure would appear or not, they could pretty much guess.
"Everyone has their own objectives." Cultivators are good at weighing pros and cons, and they are very clear about their own capabilities.
