"Master, please, don't make me leave Shirley!" Li Yunyang pleaded, his tone desperate. The old madman turned his head and threatened him, "Yunyang, you choose. If you want to be with this Demoness, then forget about me as your master. If you still want me as your master, come with me right now!"
"What?" Li Yunyang widened his eyes in disbelief. This was just like the dilemma Xiang Xueer had mentioned before: if both his master and she fell into the water at the same time, who would he save first? Both were the most important people in his life; how could he easily make a choice?
Seeing him hesitate, Feng Qingyang understood his disciple well. He had always listened to his master's words. Since childhood, Feng had raised him as his own. If it truly came down to a choice, he was certain Li Yunyang would follow him.
Xiang Xueer clenched her fists, her teeth grinding in frustration. This old scoundrel was making him make such a decision; it was utterly shameless of him. Yet for some reason, deep down, she hoped that Li Yunyang wanted to be with her.
"And you, your name is Lian Cheng Xue, right? Since you've entered my sect, you must follow my teachings. You will leave with me alongside your senior brother."
"What?" Xiang Xueer's eyebrows nearly shot up in anger. If it weren't for Li Yunyang, she would have already fought this old man to the death; it was simply too much to bear.
Secretly standing behind Xiang Xueer, Duck suddenly brightened up and smiled slyly, muttering to himself, "Great! With Qingtian gone, if both Li Yunyang and Lian Cheng Xue are taken away by this old man, then the big sister will belong to me alone, hahaha!"
Feng Qingyang waved his long sleeves and sheathed the White Beard Sword, striding forward without looking back. "You two decide whether to go or not. If you dare to be with this Demoness, don't say I won't spare you in the future; the Exorcist world will see you as public enemies!"
"Master!" Li Yunyang felt driven mad by Feng Qingyang's insistence. Seeing his master about to leave, he had no choice but to turn and pull Xiang Xueer: "Shirley, Master is just angry right now. I'll go with him first and try to talk some sense into him. Once he calms down, I'll come back for you!"
Xiang Xueer was taken aback. This scoundrel Li Yunyang had indeed chosen to leave with his master in the end. A surge of inexplicable anger rose within her: "Fine, go ahead! Once you leave, never come back to find me!"
After saying that, she glanced at Lian Cheng Xue: "You too! If you're leaving, then all of you go! I’ve never lacked men around me anyway!"
With that, Xiang Xueer picked up her Azure Wind Sword and turned to walk in the opposite direction. Seeing this, Ling Zhu and Fat Ancestor sighed and picked up the Shennong Ding, following closely behind. Meanwhile, Lian Cheng Xue protested repeatedly: "What is this nonsense? It has nothing to do with me! Why are you taking your anger out on me?"
Gunaara turned to look at the three people leaving, then glanced at Lian Cheng Xue. What should she do? Although she felt a bit reluctant to part with him, following him would be too undignified, and his master was quite terrifying.
“Brother Lian, take care!” She gritted her teeth and reluctantly turned to head towards Xiang Xueer. Duck had a smug expression on his face, pointing at Li Yunyang and Lian Cheng Xue: “You two should hurry up and find that old man. If not, you’ll become enemies of the Exorcism Realm, and it might even drag down the elder sister and us. Sigh! Just take care of yourselves.”
After saying that, it scampered off towards Xiang Xueer: “Elder sister, elder sister, wait for me! Don’t worry, I will never leave you!”
Li Yunyang watched Xiang Xueer’s departing figure, feeling a mix of emotions. Did she really not care about him at all? She left without looking back, and he felt utterly dejected.
Lian Cheng Xue didn’t initially care much about the apprenticeship, but since he had received direct instruction from Li Yunyang, and given Brother Li’s current situation, he thought it might be better to stay close to someone rather than go back alone and overthink things. He gritted his teeth and decided to remain.
“Forget it, let’s go!” Lian Cheng Xue glanced at Xiang Xueer, then patted Li Yunyang on the shoulder to comfort him: “Don’t worry, Shirley is just temporarily angry. Once we talk to the master properly, he will surely come around.”
Li Yunyang nodded. Since things had turned out this way, there was no other choice. The two turned around and quickly followed Feng Qingyang.
Suddenly, Xiang Xueer stopped in her tracks. This Li Yunyang actually left; that damn man was infuriating. Just then, Duck came rushing from behind: “Elder sister, I’m here!”
“Get away from me!” Xiang Xueer, frustrated and looking for an outlet for her anger, kicked Duck, sending him flying through the air in an arc as his pitiful scream echoed: “Ah, elder sister, no!”
“Shirley, are you really okay with them misunderstanding you like this?” Ling Zhu looked at her gloomy little face with concern; even a fool could see she was angry—and very angry.
“Don’t mind him!” Xiang Xueer snapped back at Ling Zhu, striding forward without considering where she was headed.
As a result, within less than an hour, she found herself standing atop a towering cliff. She suddenly stopped in her tracks, her mind a mess; she had unknowingly walked herself into a dead end. With a huff of frustration escaping her lips, she turned around and plopped down on a nearby rock, puffing up her cheeks like a goldfish while resting her chin on her hands in silence.
Fat Ancestor looked at Ling Zhu, who turned to glance at Gunaara. She shrugged her shoulders and said, "Don't look at me. I have no idea how to advise on this, and I'm a mess myself!"
Duck rolled his eyes at Gunaara: "Come on, what's your mess? If you want to follow Lian Cheng Xue, just say it. It doesn't matter to us whether you're here or not!"
"What are you talking about, Stinky Duck? When did I ever say I wanted to go with Lian Cheng Xue?" Gunaara blushed from being called out and vehemently denied it. Duck picked his nose and flicked it away, saying, "Enough pretending! Everyone can see it; you two have something going on!"
"What nonsense are you spouting?" Gunaara retorted as she started to wrestle with Duck, pinching his mouth and threatening, "I'll make sure to ruin your stinky mouth if you keep talking nonsense."
"Wow, help! Help!" Duck cried out while struggling. "You Dead Girl, usually so quiet, but you're actually a fierce one! Just wait; I'll tell Lian Cheng Xue about this."
"Hey, stop it! Don't you think Shirley is enough of a headache already?" Ling Zhu glanced at the frowning Xiang Xueer and quickly stepped in to mediate.
Fat Ancestor shook his head at the group: "Honestly, it's frustrating that the responsibility of saving the Common People has fallen into your hands."
Saving the Common People? Xiang Xueer suddenly snapped out of her thoughts and stood up from the stone she was sitting on. "That's right! Didn't Feng Qingyang mention something about the Million Demon Army? I'm still puzzled that even a few from Saint Ten have started searching separately. It seems this Demon Lord has hidden his trump card very well!"
"Huh?" A single remark from Fat Ancestor finally brought back Xiang Xueer's previous calmness. She nodded immediately: "Exactly! Now is the time to set aside personal feelings and prioritize the responsibility of saving the Common People!"
Indeed, it was all because of that Li Yunyang that she lost her composure. If the man she liked was involved, what could that old man do even if he disagreed? Hmph!
