The Great White Works Slowly Ascending to Immortality Volume 1 Chapter 80 Eighty, A Major Event
It's rare to meet fellow cultivators. Should I go ask them the way? Xiao Yao hesitated for a moment before making up her mind. Rather than wandering around herself, it was better to ask them directly. Moreover, those three cultivators were all in the Houtian stage, so even if something unexpected happened along the way, she would be able to handle it.
She flew towards the direction of the three people, and soon they also discovered her and immediately became vigilant.
Xiao Yao stopped at a distance of about 100 meters from the three people, and quickly used the "Micro Heart Technique" to take a close look at them. The two men and one woman looked very young, with the man being handsome and the woman being beautiful, all wearing uniform flower-colored Taoist robes, with flying swords under their feet. At first glance, it was clear that they were sword cultivators, and the style of their Taoist robes was something Xiao Yao had seen on Luo Jianying before, so they should also be disciples of the Jade Sword Mountain Villa. Perhaps due to not being good at hiding, she could clearly see a deep sense of vigilance in the eyes of the three people, and the female disciple even took a slight step back, slightly pressing herself behind the two male cultivators, her beautiful eyes fixed on Xiao Yao with a mixture of unease and curiosity.
Seeing the three people with their concerns written all over their faces, and appearing a bit immature in handling matters, Xiao Yao's heart slightly relaxed, and she smiled politely: "Three fellow Taoists, I have no ill intentions, but when I came out to hunt for empty beasts in the cloud sea, I encountered a storm and lost my way. So I came to ask for directions, how do I get back to Meishan Floating Island from here?"
That female disciple saw Xiao Yao smile warmly, and subconsciously opened her mouth to reply: "From here, flying northwest for half a day after leaving the 'Misty Sea of Illusions' will allow you to reach Meishan Floating Island. However, this sea of clouds is fraught with danger, and on our way here, I and several senior brothers almost lost our lives. If it weren't for replacing Master to find treasure..."
"Little sister!"
As soon as the little sister from their own family opened her mouth, she smoothly mentioned the situation on their side. The two male cultivators beside her were anxious and hastily spoke out to stop her, and also frowned at her. Suddenly, she realized that she had spoken too smoothly, and looked at the two masters with some unease, and then pressed down again.
One of the male disciples smiled awkwardly and quickly took over, saying: "This Taoist friend is my junior sister Ruman. Please don't mind her. This place is called 'Misty Cloud Sea' for thousands of miles around, and it has a greater restriction on spiritual awareness than ordinary cloud seas. If a cultivator enters this place without knowing the reason, they will easily get lost. As long as you follow my junior sister's words and leave this cloud sea, you will naturally find your way out. Due to the restrictions on spiritual awareness here, there are many ferocious flying beasts hidden, and it is not safe for one person to stay. You should set off as soon as possible and find the right path early."
Watching the three people's nervous and flustered appearance, eager to send her away, Xiao Yao couldn't help but smile slightly, with a hint of amusement: "Thank you for directing me."
After a simple thank you, she didn't want to give the three people any more pressure, and turned around to leave.
Who would have thought that at this time, the divine consciousness had detected that the two were rapidly approaching in this direction. Upon closer inspection, it was discovered that one of them was an acquaintance, none other than Luo Jianying, who had been entangled with him in a battle of wits all along.
It was clear that the other party had also detected her presence, and it would be impossible to slip away again. Xiao Yao could only stand in place, watching as two rainbow lights flashed at the horizon and landed in front of her. Apart from Luo Jianying, there was another person who seemed somewhat familiar; after thinking for a moment, she recalled that he had been a fellow disciple of Luo Jianying's at Yu Jian Mountain Villa during their time in Kunlun.
Compared with Xiao Yao's gloominess, the other three were overjoyed, their faces full of smiles as they greeted the two: "Wen Shixiong! Luo Shixiong!"
The man known as Wen Shixiong furrowed his brow and slightly scrutinized Xiao Yao, then looked at his three junior siblings and asked in puzzlement: "What's going on? Why did you use the emergency transmission talisman?"
The three of them suddenly blushed and didn't dare look at him, saying: "N-nothing big happened, it was just an accident...".
"Didn't you accidentally tear it apart?!" Wen Shixiong's eyebrows rose, and his voice unconsciously grew louder: "This urgent transmission symbol requires a drop of essence blood to be added before it can be torn apart. How did you guys accidentally add the essence blood and then accidentally inject it into the yuan force?!"
Three people hung their heads, and no one dared to admit it because they saw outsiders approaching, fearing deceit. In a panic, they used it, although all three immediately regretted it afterwards. However, there is no medicine for regret in this world, and it was already too late.
Wen Shixiong saw that the three of them were all nervous and didn't dare to look at themselves, and also saw that there was another outsider here, believing that she must have some connection with him. So he turned around to face Xiao Yao and said: "I am Wen Xianjun, I don't know how to address you, and why are you here?"
Xiao Yao was about to report her name, but then she thought that since she was currently on the run, it would be better to be cautious. Although Luo Jianying knew her true identity, however...
"In the lower Xiao Yao," she said, using her real name and slightly prolonging the tone, slowly and calmly. She glanced at Rong Jianying, but saw that he was looking at her without any unusual expression on his face, so she continued: "Due to getting lost in the Yunhai storm, fortunately met three fellow Taoists from your sect, asked them for directions, now that I've got the route clear, just as I was about to leave, you two appeared."
"Is what this Taoist friend said true?" Wén Xiān Jūn asked while looking at the three people who lowered their heads even further, and was met with a moment of silence. Although it was their first time leaving Fú Dǎo to train, they were really too flustered!
"Wen Shixiong..." At this time, the female disciple slightly raised her head, "This can't be blamed on us, but in just half a day in this 'Misty Cloud Sea', we've encountered too many situations. I and both Shixiongs have been tightly strung like a bowstring, it's inevitable that there are some misunderstandings."
Wen Xianjun shook his head and said seriously, "Master let you out this time to temper your will and mind. If you can't even handle things calmly now, what will happen when you encounter an even bigger crisis?" Then he turned to Luo Jianying and said, "Luo Shidi, don't pretend it has nothing to do with you, say something to them too."
But he saw that Lü Jianying was not looking at him at all, and was instead staring intently at the female cultivator in front of him. He was momentarily perplexed: "Lü Shidi, do you know this Xiao Daoist friend?"
Ling Jianying crossed his arms over his chest and did not return to his master's brother, but instead looked at Xiao Yao seriously: "This time, you still don't have a reason to fight me?"
This person is still like this, Xiao Yao smiled awkwardly and shook her head, "Really no reason."
"I will continue to wait."
Luo Jianying directly threw out a sentence, and didn't look at her again, standing silently beside her once more.
But Wen Xianjun also saw that this female cultivator was indeed acquainted with Lu Shidi, and it seemed that Lu Shidi had been entangled in a battle of magic with her. Truly, one cannot judge by appearances; who would have thought that such an elegant and slender woman would be a master acknowledged by Lu Shidi?
Since they were friends and not enemies, Wen Xianjun's brow relaxed as he said: "Xiao Daoyou, these three junior siblings of mine are newcomers to the outer clouds of Meishan. Their experience is inevitably lacking, so if there's any misunderstanding, please be patient with them."
Xiao Yao smiled and said, "Wen Dao friend is too polite. The three disciples of your noble sect are not bad in character, although they may be slightly lacking in their handling of affairs. However, with more practice, they will surely become accomplished. I should thank them for being willing to guide me instead. In that case, it won't hinder your training, so I'll take my leave."
"Xiao Dao, wait." Wen Xian Jun saw her about to leave and thought for a moment before calling out to her: "Now that our mission is also complete and we're preparing to return to Meishan Floating Island, why don't you come with us? It'll be safer on the road with someone to look out for each other."
Before Xiao Yao could answer, their junior sister suddenly spoke up with a shocked expression: "Brother Wen's mission is completed? How come we didn't know?"
Wen Xianjun glared at her with a bad temper, "Just before you tore the emergency transmission symbol, fortunately, I didn't bring you along, otherwise, who knows what kind of trouble would have occurred, and how long it would take to complete."
In short, you three are more likely to make a mess than achieve anything. Instantly, the three of them looked embarrassed and turned red in the face, not daring to utter another word.
When Wen Xunjun turned his gaze to Xiao Yao again, Xiao Yao felt that it would be better for a few people to return to Meishan Floating Island as cover, but he always felt that it was not good and hesitated before saying: "This... will it trouble you all?"
Wen Xianjun dispelled his concerns, saying, "It's just on the way, no need to trouble you, besides, Xiao Dao is also a friend recognized by Lu Jian's junior, so there's no need to be so polite."
Xiao Yao saw Wen Xian's attitude was calm and composed, so she knew he was genuinely inviting her and not just being polite. She also put her mind at ease, "Then I'd rather obey than express my gratitude, thank you, fellow Taoist."
As he spoke, he glanced at Rong Jianying again, seeing that he still had no expression, and was entangled in thoughts. Did they really count as friends?
Perhaps because they were both women, on the way back, that female disciple quickly became close to Xiao Yao, chattering away about this and that. Although it was a bit noisy, Xiao Yao didn't dislike her lively and cheerful personality.
After listening to her talk about many interesting things about the Jade Sword Villa, she suddenly changed her tone and said mysteriously and excitedly: "Xiao Dao, you may not know that just before we came out, a big thing happened in the White Jade City."
