Chapter 757: Too Sly!
“Ah, our group got lost and somehow ended up here. We are resting here for a while and will leave soon. We don’t want to give Lord Sect Master any troubles,” Ling Chuxi smiled and said very politely, “I believe that Lord Sect Master is a generous person and will surely not chase us off over such small matters.”
“Ah…” Yu Daoni was a little dumbfounded, not expecting such a request. However, they seemed harmless enough. It was a small group, and only a few of them seemed to have decent cultivation. Furthermore, this young lady’s eyes were so full of adoration that she couldn’t possibly be plotting anything. In his excitement over Ling Chuxi, he never wondered why, in this group of over twenty people with many men and some elders, only this young maiden was speaking.
“Sure, but you all should leave as soon as possible after resting. It is not so peaceful here at night. We have not returned for a long time and the inside is a little messy, so I cannot invite you all to enter,” Yu Daoni said magnanimously.
“Alright, Lord Sect Master. Please carry on with whatever you need to do, don’t mind us.” Ling Chuxi smiled and nodded, and went to sit by the side of the path. Su Yizhi and the rest knew that Ling Chuxi had a trick up her sleeve, so they just quietly followed her and sat down.
Lan Xinyu and Jiang Wuhen were turning red trying to hold back their laughter. Ling Chuxi was really cruel! Did she enjoy making fun of people that much? She was just too sly, but they couldn’t deny that it was entertaining. In the future, if such jokes were available, don’t forget to invite them to watch!
Ling Chuxi quietly sat there, watching the Jade Pool Sect’s people. There were about forty to fifty of them, and a few had cultivation of the realm of True Essence. They were not bad, but still too weak for a sect. This Jade Pool Sect was definitely nothing great, and the fact that Ling Chuxi had not heard about them before confirmed it.
Would the Golden Pill Sect’s mechanism be so easy to figure out? If it were so easy to open, then the sect would have already been broken into ages ago. However, neither Jiang Wuhen nor Su Yizhi had mentioned that the Golden Pill Sect had been invaded, so surely no outsider had entered before.
Yu Daoni leaned closer to Great Master Quan and muttered something in his ear. Great Master Quan nodded and slowly walked over to the cable car.
Yu Daoni and the rest were full of confidence, waiting for the Great Master Quan to resolve the mechanism. However, their expressions slowly changed with each of Great Master Quan’s actions.
Yu Daoni’s eyes were sparkling and his smile was wide as Great Master Quan studied the cable car intently, confidently knocking and tapping the machine.
Yu Daoni’s smile disappeared and he started to frown when Great Master Quan stared at the cable car, looking perplexed.
Yu Daoni’s expression sank completely when Great Master Quan started to sweat profusely as he went all around the cable car, knocking on the machine without any results.
Half an hour became an hour, and an hour became two hours.
Ling Chuxi yawned and looked at the furious Yu Daoni and the embarrassed Great Master Quan. Slowly, she stood up. She had rested enough, and the sky was about to darken. She had gotten bored of watching the play, now it was time for her to end it!
