Chapter 374: The Youth is Innocent, but He is Guilty of Possessing a Treasure
In the original owner's memory, everyone in Xuanxiao Sect was kind and friendly.
But she was, after all, a girl born with a silver spoon in her mouth, and it was impossible for her to get in touch with the sect's secrets.
If she took Wuming back like this, Shi Li was a little worried that Wuming would be bullied in a place where she couldn't take care of him.
After all, she is such a gloomy and taciturn person, and if something really happens, he probably won't take the initiative to come to her to talk about it.
But she had to break her promise to protect him.
After careful consideration, Shi Li decided to walk slower, at least to ensure that Wuming could reach the Qi Refining Stage before returning to the sect.
If that didn't work, she would rummage through her Qiankun bag and give him one or two magic weapons for self-defense.
These were all what she had thought of, but she didn't tell Wuming.
The two of them walked and stopped along the way, and when they came across a place with beautiful scenery, Shi Li would definitely stay for three to five days.
Before I knew it, I arrived at Xiushui City.
This is the place where the most spirit crystals are produced, and it is bustling with people everywhere.
"This place is nice, let's stay a few more days."
Walking into the city gate, Shi Li looked back at the people in bright clothes coming in one after another and said.
Wuming nodded silently.
As usual, Shi Li was going to find someone to ask where the best inn in the city was.
A wealthy person with the means will not compromise himself, let alone now that he has to support a "burden".
[Anchor, anchor, why don't you just accept Wuming as your apprentice? 】
[Yes, yes. When the time comes, he will be your disciple and no one will dare to bully him~]
The questions raised in the barrage made Shi Li pause, and she subconsciously looked back at the young man who always followed behind her.
The boy also stopped and looked at her silently.
Even though he was in a noisy street with people coming and going around him, he still looked out of place, like the only black and white in a colorful painting, standing out from the crowd.
Shi Li smiled at him, didn't care if she didn't get a response, turned around and continued walking forward, then distracted herself by answering the questions in the barrage.
"I don't think he will call me Master, so don't humiliate yourself."
【…】
[Although I think so, but it’s really heartbreaking to hear the host say it himself~]
[It really hurts. ]
Before I found the best inn, I heard a surprised cry coming from not far ahead.
Shi Li came over for the reputation.
The first thing I saw was a man in a snow-white robe, surrounded by people and walking towards me.
The man had a handsome face, a heroic demeanor, and an extraordinary bearing. The sword at his waist was emitting a brilliant light that only a top-grade spiritual weapon could emit.
At first, Shi Li didn't know who the man was. She just felt that he had a very "pretentious" temperament. The white clothes he wore did not look pure and innocent, but instead seemed to be hiding the truth.
Just when I was wondering who this person was, the people gathered around him directly revealed his identity.
"Mr. Bei Yu came to Xiushui City this time. I wonder why?"
It turned out that the man in white was Bei Yu, the leader of Qingyang Sect who had been shining recently.
"My father's birthday is next month, and I came to Xiushui City to find a gift." Jun Beiyu smiled, looking gentle and kind.
Another flatterer immediately intervened, "I have admired Master Bei Yu for a long time, and today I finally got to see his demeanor, which is a great achievement."
"I used to think that Master Bei Yu was much better than Yuan Xingche, but unfortunately there are too many people who are blind to this."
"Yeah……"
In order to curry favor with Jun Beiyu, the people around him spared no effort to belittle Yuan Xingche.
Hearing this, Jun Beiyu frowned slightly, "You don't have to be like this, Senior Brother Yuan... Fellow Daoist Yuan also had good times."
His change of words was actually a disguised reminder to everyone present that Yuan Xingche had been expelled from the Qingyang Sect.
"Master Bei Yu is kindhearted, and he is definitely not the same as a shameless villain like that!"
Everyone talked even more excitedly, but a cold sneer suddenly reached everyone's ears, making people a little surprised.
Shi Li saw everyone looking at him, so he turned around and glanced at Wuming first, wanting him to calm down.
But he found Wuming with his head down behind him, and he couldn't see the expression on his face at all.
This state is a bit strange.
Shi Li was confused and wanted to ask, but felt a sharp sword energy coming from behind.
Wuming is right behind you, you can't retreat.
Shi Li raised his hand, his sleeves fluttering like dark clouds, and he blocked the sword energy with ease.
One attack and one block, it only takes a moment.
Others may not even feel it.
Shi Li looked at Jun Beiyu who was pretending nothing happened, raised her eyebrows and chuckled.
"Master Bei Yu? If I'm not mistaken, your sword was obtained by Yuan Xingche after surviving a near-death experience while crossing the six continents. I don't know why it appeared on you?"
The original owner had the opportunity to see this sword before, but it was not her chance, so she did not force it.
It was clearly the sword that Yuan Xingche had obtained at the beginning, but now it appeared on Jun Beiyu's body. The reason behind this is very intriguing.
For a moment, everyone fell silent, staring at Jun Beiyu.
