Chapter 65: We Can Always Wait for Him at His Home
Zhao Ningzhi gave Liu Mei a meaningful look without saying anything, but the implication was clear in her eyes.
Liu Mei felt a complex mixture of emotions. She knew that her master was dissatisfied and disappointed in her, but she had no explanation.
After all, it was the truth.
She still wasn’t ready to give up her virginity.
Zhao Ningzhi didn’t say much as she transformed into a stream of light and flew off in a certain direction, her destination unknown.
As soon as she left, the girls all breathed a sigh of relief.
Mo Ruyu asked, “Senior Sister Liu, what should we do now?”
“Let’s go to the nearest airship dock. If he wants to travel fast, he’ll probably choose an airship!” Liu Mei said calmly.
“What if he’s not there? After all, he is a novice in cultivation and might not even know about the airship docks,” Wang Yanran asked.
“Let’s go there first,” Liu Mei said indifferently, seemingly confident of catching Lin Fengmian.
“Yes, Senior Sister!”
Meanwhile, Lin Fengmian had been traveling alone day and night. Fortunately, he had now overcome his fear of heights to some extent, so his speed was not slow.
However, he was completely unfamiliar with the area, so his current plan was to find a place to buy a map and then decide.
One day, as he was flying through the wilderness, he suddenly saw two streaks of light flying across the sky.
This startled Lin Fengmian; could it be that Liu Mei and the others had caught up with him?
He quickly landed and flew low through the forest to avoid them.
The two streaks of light noticed him as well, and one of them suddenly changed direction and flew towards him aggressively.
Lin Fengmian became even more panicked and accelerated his flight through the forest.
However, his strength was slightly inferior, and soon, the two rays of light caught up with him.
“Stop right there!” A woman shouted.
Lin Fengmian breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this voice. It wasn’t Liu Mei and the others!
Landing on the ground, he turned around and cautiously watched the two figures approaching.
The two landed as well, revealing a young man and woman wearing identical uniforms.
The man was tall and thin, about the same height as Lin Fengmian, exceptionally handsome, and exuded an extraordinary aura.
This was the first time Lin Fengmian had met someone more handsome than himself, so he couldn’t help but take a few more glances.
However, the more he looked, the more strange it seemed. Even though this gentleman was slim, why were his chest muscles so exaggerated?
The girl looked about fifteen or sixteen, with a sweet appearance and a bit of baby fat on her face, she looked cute and charming, a beauty in the making.
At that moment, her lively eyes were fixed on Lin Fengmian as if she was looking at a bad person.
Lin Fengmian couldn’t see through the cultivation levels of either of them, which clearly indicated that they were above the Foundation stage.
Lin Fengmian bowed and said, “Greetings to my two fellow Daoists, may I ask what brings you here?”
The girl looked eager and asked, “Hey, why did you run away as soon as you saw us? Are you a demon from the Joyful Union Sect?”
Lin Fengmian’s heart skipped a beat in shock.
Was he that obvious? Could anyone tell that he was from the Joyful Union Sect?
The man quickly stopped her and said, “Junior sister, don’t be rude!”
As soon as he spoke, Lin Fengmian felt that something was wrong. Why did this guy’s voice sound so androgynous?
And it was quite pleasant to listen to?
The girl pouted and said, “But he ran away as soon as he saw us. Isn’t that what you said, Senior Sister? I mean, Senior Brother, about being devious and guilty?”
Lin Fengmian was speechless, even though she was right.
But wasn’t this reasoning a bit flawed?
He forced a smile and said, “Both of you suddenly flew at me aggressively, which startled me. I thought I had run into bandits, so I panicked and fled, not because I was guilty.”
The girl was disappointed and said, “Ah, not a demonic cultivator? I thought he was a demon from the Joyful Union Sect.”
The overly handsome man said helplessly, “Junior sister, the Joyful Union sect is made up of women. The attire of this fellow Daoist suggests that he is from the Jade Tree Sect.”
Lin Fengmian: “…”
Even though he was speaking on his behalf, why did he feel like he was being insulted?
The man bowed to Lin Fengmian and said, “Please forgive me, fellow Daoist of the Jade Tree Sect. I am Wen Qinlin from the Heavenly Strategy Mansion.”
He pointed at the girl and introduced her, “This is my younger sister, Zhou Xiaoping. This is her first time traveling far from home, so she doesn’t know the rules and scared you.”
Lin Fengmian quickly returned the bow and said, “It’s okay, I am Lin Fengmian of the Jade Tree Sect, greetings to both of you.”
He guessed that it was because the clothes he was wearing were the uniform of the Jade Tree Sect, otherwise this overly beautiful Wen Qinlin wouldn’t have mistaken him for a member of the Jade Tree Sect.
Since that was the case, he had to go along with it, he couldn’t very well say that he was an imposter.
Wen Qinlin smiled slightly and said, “Daoist Lin, your cultivation level isn’t very high, why are you traveling alone without any elders from your sect?
Lin Fengmian made up a story on the spot, “I finished a mission with my elder and was on my way home to visit relatives, so I’m traveling alone. How about you two?”
He had no idea where the Jade Tree Sect was, whether his presence here was reasonable or not, so he just made up an excuse.
Zhou Xiaoping smiled shyly and said, “We got lost…”
“Lost?” Lin Fengmian looked confused.
Zhou Xiaoping blushed and said shyly, “My senior brother is good at everything, but he’s a bit directionally challenged, and it’s my first time…”
Wen Qinlin seriously corrected, “Junior sister, I’m not directionally challenged, I just have a bit of poor sense of direction!”
“Isn’t that the same thing?” Zhou Xiaoping pointed out, and Wen Qinlin had nothing to say.
Zhou Xiaoping shyly said, “I stopped you at first just to ask for directions, who knew you’d run away as soon as you saw someone.”
Lin Fengmian couldn’t help but laugh and then said, “So that’s it, it’s quite a coincidence.”
Wen Qinlin looked a bit embarrassed and said, “May I ask where your hometown is? Uh…”
Lin Fengmian understood and smiled, “My hometown is in the Zhao Kingdom, I wonder if it’s on the way for you two?”
Wen Qinlin was surprised and said, “Daoist Lin is from Zhao Kingdom? That’s quite a coincidence, our Heavenly Strategy Mansion is also in the Zhao Kingdom.”
“If you don’t mind, how about we travel together?”
Zhou Xiaoping said shyly, “The main thing is that we want you to lead us out, this place is like a maze, we’ve been circling for days.”
Lin Fengmian couldn’t help but laugh and nodded, “That would be great, I just hope I don’t slow you down.”
Wen Qinlin and Zhou Xiaoping stood up straight, and their cultivation levels were far higher than his. If they really wanted to hurt him, they wouldn’t need to be so polite.
And if Liu Mei and the others caught up with them, at least Wen Qinlin and Zhou Xiaoping could help.
Wen Qinlin smiled politely and said, “Thank you, Daoist Lin.”
Zhou Xiaoping also said excitedly, “This is great, if I keep flying through these mountains with Senior… Brother, I’m afraid I’ll turn into a wild man.”
Lin Fengmian couldn’t help but laugh as he liked the straightforward personalities of the two.
After a while, the three of them mounted their magical tools and rose into the air, flying into the distance.
