Chapter 77: Heading to the Master's Gate
Mingji, standing at the door of the inn, watched Jiang Yu walk up the stairs. His eyes darkened and his smile gradually faded.
Without him around, Jiang Yu was obviously much more lively. While walking, she would turn her head from time to time to whisper to the girl next to her. Once the young disciple in front of her turned around, she would immediately lower her voice and become well-behaved.
Mingji looked at her back. The water-ripple pattern on her dress swayed as she walked, attracting not only his attention.
He shook his head almost inaudibly.
"What a pity." He said softly, "died young..."
His voice disappeared, and he suddenly smiled at himself.
What is she thinking about? This girl is Jiang Wan's daughter, the biological daughter of the Immortal Lord and the adopted daughter of the Demon Lord. She has a powerful background and such good fortune. Maybe she has already found a way to break the code.
The second floor of the inn was not empty either.
Jiang Yu and the others looked up on the stairs and saw two people standing at the railing on the second floor. One of them had white hair but a straight posture. The other one was holding a long sword and standing behind the old man with his body straight.
Jun Mo behind them almost jumped up and waved excitedly: "Master! Senior Brother!"
Jun Mo’s master and senior brother?
They are the leader and disciples of the Cangyu Sect.
Jiang Yu stretched his neck curiously to look.
Jun Mo jumped over several steps in one step, ran sideways past them, and ran happily towards his master and senior brother.
Jiang Yu seemed to be thinking about something and moved closer to Yuan Heng, but before he could say anything, the door of a room on the second floor was suddenly pulled open from the inside. The wooden door panels collided, making a "clang" sound that successfully attracted the attention of everyone present, including the leader of the Cangyu Sect.
Her most beautiful and enthusiastic senior sister Fu Shuang rushed out, and her excitement was no less than Jun Mo who just rushed to the embrace of the master. "Master, master." She barely stopped in front of Song Hui and Song Lian, saluted properly, and then went down two steps in a row, hugged Jiang Yu, and shocked Yuan Heng to take a step back immediately.
"Junior sister, you are amazing!" She patted Jiang Yu on the back gently, "You have achieved such great results on your first mission!"
Before Jiang Yu could even raise her awkward smile, she went down another step, hugged Sang Yang again, and patted Fang He's shoulder. Before her outstretched hand touched the cloth on Yuan Heng's body, he took a step back, went down another step, and easily dodged it.
Fu Shuang didn't mind at all. He withdrew his hand with a smile, and glanced at Wei Xu's face. He decided not to provoke him and praised: "You guys are also very good."
A few more doors on the second floor opened, and five or six more Sun Moon Sect disciples came out one after another. Su Jie walked in front of these people. Unlike Fu Shuang, he was not as excited. He led his people to the second floor stairs and waited for the little monk to say "please" again. After leading them up, he bowed to Song Hui and Song Lian and said, "Master, Sect Master."
The disciples from other peaks behind him also leaned over to greet him, blocking the entrance until no one could get in or out.
It was the first time for the young monk to come out to receive guests, and also the first time to encounter such a scene. He looked downstairs at his senior brother a little awkwardly, but it was a pity that his senior brother was focused on the situation outside the inn and didn't pay much attention to what was happening here.
But Song Lian noticed the young master's awkwardness, and he tapped his closed fan against his palm, opened his mouth, and began to send people away: "It's good that you are all here, go back to the house, what are you blocking here for."
Su Jie and the disciples behind him had no objections. They were all resting and preparing in their rooms, and did not notice who had come to the inn at first. It was just that Fu Shuang made too much noise, and the sound of "Junior Sister" was probably heard clearly by everyone in the inn.
Su Jie did not move, but the disciples behind him, who were not very familiar with them, returned to their rooms one by one.
The road was suddenly clear.
The little monk breathed a sigh of relief and tilted his head to look at Song Lian with gratitude.
