Chapter 228 Xuri City Crisis

"You don't need to be so polite, Master leads the way, but cultivation is a personal journey," Lin Ruxue said.

It wasn't that she hadn't taken on disciples before; it was just that compared to other peak masters, Lin Ruxue had fewer disciples.

Quality over quantity.

Lin Ruxue understood this principle, which was why she had no other choice.

If there were trouble in the future, no one would be able to change it.

It was precisely because of this that they all began to feel troubled, not even knowing how to face it.

"Right, where is Big Brother Yun Lang?"

"He has already gone down the mountain."

"What!"

Zhao Wan'er exclaimed in surprise.

He was clearly here just now, but unexpectedly, he had already descended the mountain.

If there was trouble, no one would be able to bear it, and this was the most important point.

"How could he have gone down the mountain?"

Zhao Wan'er was completely unaware of these matters.

After all, he had been cultivating in the stone chamber previously.

When they came out, no one would be able to do anything.

No matter who they were, it could bring immense trouble.

However, it was precisely because of this that they all became curious, not knowing how to handle it.

"Li Jun, a disciple of the Wang family, has fled from the Taichu Sect. Regardless of the reason, the Taichu Sect cannot let him go unpunished."

"This..."

Zhao Wan'er was utterly shocked.

She hadn't expected that such a reason would lead to the current problem. She had thought it was something important they were being asked to do.

But it turned out to be this.

She couldn't help but become curious. If there were real danger, it could be perilous for all of them.

"Master, then I understand."

Yun Lang had already disciplined Wang Yong and the others, so she believed the Wang family disciples would not bother her for the time being.

Coupled with her current strength at the fourth level of Qi Refining, she might not even be afraid if she encountered them.

Thus, Zhao Wan'er secretly made up her mind. No matter the circumstances, she would continue to cultivate here.

When Yun Lang returned, she would surely give him a surprise.

With her strength greatly increased, would she still be afraid of them dealing with her?

Clearly, there were no concerns, and this was something they all understood.

"Alright, you can rest now."

At this point, there was nothing more to say.

Moreover, Lin Ruxue was aware of Yun Lang's current strength and did not worry about him at all.

Even if he encountered obstacles, he would likely be able to handle them.

This showed the situation, but they didn't know how to proceed.

"Yes!"

Zhao Wan'er nodded.

The shadow of Yun Lang's departure completely vanished, and she then headed towards the stone chamber.

As for Lin Ruxue, she reclined on a rock, slowly drinking the wine she carried.

She knew these matters were difficult to handle. If there were any mishaps, Xu Changnian would certainly not let Yun Lang off.

That would bring trouble to everyone, and it was precisely for this reason that they all understood how dangerous the current situation was for them.

Within Xuri City.

Following Li Jun's escape from the Taichu Sect, Wang Ba did not hesitate and led his disciples in pursuit.

However, there was no news of Li Jun along the way, which troubled Wang Ba.

If they continued like this, it would not be beneficial for anyone.

This made everyone understand, but they didn't know how to face it.

If there was danger, it would certainly not be what they wanted to see, but for now, they had to make their own preparations.

"Patriarch, Li Jun must be hiding somewhere."

"That's right. In the vast Xuri City, how can we find him?"

Two disciples said with difficulty.

Their objective was revenge and apprehending a traitor.

However, they understood the opponent's situation and knew he wouldn't be easy to find.

If trouble arose then, no one would be able to handle it.

This inevitably made them feel troubled, as they all had their own thoughts.

"Hmph! I refuse to believe he can simply vanish into thin air."

Mentioning this, Wang Ba was filled with anger.

After all, with his strength, he could definitely deal with the opponent.

If there was trouble, no matter how they acted, it would not yield any benefits.

"That won't happen."

A disciple said apologetically.

He knew he had said something he shouldn't have. If he were held accountable, it would not benefit him at all.

However, no one could do anything. They were all aware of the opponent's strength.

Compared to inner disciples in the Taichu Sect, he might not be much.

But in Xuri City, he was practically a powerful presence.

Moreover, the two disciples beside Wang Ba were only at the fourth level of Foundation Establishment.

Even if they encountered him, they would not be Li Jun's match, so they could only follow Wang Ba in pursuit.

"Forget it, let's find a place to stay first."

Wang Ba sighed.

As he spoke, he moved forward.

"Yes!"

They were already tired from the journey. Upon hearing Wang Ba's decision, they were immediately delighted.

Fortunately, there was an inn not far ahead. The two disciples, seeing this, hurried towards it.

As soon as they entered the inn.

Wang Ba suddenly frowned.

The people eating there were all unfamiliar faces with not weak cultivation.

His gaze swept across everyone, and Wang Ba froze in place.

"Patriarch?"

"Patriarch..."

The two disciples called out.

They thought Wang Ba was looking for traces of Li Jun, but they had already looked and found no sign of him.

"Three!"

Just then, the innkeeper hurried over.

"Are the three of you here to eat or to stay?"

"We're staying. Open three rooms for us."

"Yes, yes, yes!"

The innkeeper, seeing Wang Ba's attire, knew he was no ordinary person.

He quickly guided them upstairs.

"Innkeeper, bring us some food to our rooms."

"Alright, don't worry, we'll be right there."

The innkeeper said respectfully.

Then he left and went to instruct the kitchen.

"Patriarch, it seems Xuri City is still this lively."

Normally, they stayed in the Taichu Sect and had no time to descend the mountain.

But they never expected such a scene to unfold before them.

If there were any problems, it would not be this simple for them.

After all, everyone had their own thoughts, and eventually, someone would step forward.

"Hmph! Behind the liveliness, I fear there lies endless danger."

Wang Ba said coldly.

Upon entering the inn just now, he had already noticed that the entire inn was filled with hidden experts.

Their cultivation was low, so they naturally couldn't perceive it, but Wang Ba's situation was different.
