Chapter 464 Follow me closely
At this time, Lu Sangjiu had changed her appearance, becoming a weak and pitiful looking girl, and even her cultivation was suppressed to around the combined stage.
Coupled with the panic and helplessness on her face and the blood on her lips, one can easily think of her as a harmless character at a glance.
Hmm... that's right, she was going to learn what she did in the Seven Emotions Sect, pretending to be weak and pitiful to dispel other people's wariness.
If the problem can be solved with this simplest method, it is naturally better than going to war.
Lie Rufeng, who was walking at the front, frowned, and the initial sharpness and alertness in his eyes dissipated a little.
The people behind him who had just been startled also came to their senses at this time. Duan Yiyi was the first to speak dissatisfiedly to Lu Sangjiu, "Who are you, and what are you doing hiding here?"
"You're pretending to be pitiful, but I think you actually have evil intentions and want to do something to us, right?"
Lu Sangjiu was well versed in the art of green tea, and knew that having such a silly and hot-tempered girl around would make him look even more pitiable.
So she looked at Duan Yiyi with pity in her eyes, "Sister Fairy... you misunderstood, I'm really just lost here!"
"If you don't believe it, you can just leave me here, as long as you don't hurt me!"
She kept her posture very low and looked weak and pitiful. Tang Ming looked a little pitiful and couldn't help but said on her behalf, "Forget it, why bother with a little monk like her."
"I think she has just reached the integration stage. She can't even defeat Junior Sister Ruxin. She doesn't pose a threat to us."
Tang Ming was very poor at talking, and Ru Xin's face suddenly looked unpleasant, and then she said coldly: "Just because his cultivation level is low, it doesn't necessarily mean he can't pose a threat to us. It's better to be careful."
Lu Sangjiu felt that he was very innocent, as if he had accidentally been involved in the other party's intrigue.
She was afraid that she would accidentally become cannon fodder, so she hurriedly spoke for herself again, "I told you, if you don't believe me, you can just ignore me and I will continue to find my way out."
"God has the virtue of a good life, please let the immortal masters let me go!"
Until now, Lie Rufeng, who had been silent, spoke, "You are only in the integration stage, what are you doing here?"
Lu Sangjiu's cultivation was lowered to the combined stage because of reasonableness. She immediately replied: "I followed my elders to see the world, but I encountered monsters before and got separated from them."
"I was a little scared. I saw a cave here and hid in it. However, I didn't expect that it was so complicated that I accidentally got lost."
This place is infested with monsters. Normally, monks below the level of Earth Immortal rarely come here, but it is not that strange if they follow their elders.
Although the cultivation level in the Fusion Stage is a bit lacking here, it is not impossible to protect yourself if you carry some magic weapons with you and be more careful.
Lie Rufeng didn't speak anymore, seeming to be thinking about the authenticity of her words.
Ru Xin then asked, "Are you a casual cultivator or a sect cultivator? Who are your elders?"
Lu Sangjiu answered fluently: "I am a casual cultivator. The elders in my family are my master and his friends, who are also casual cultivators. We live in Luzhou City."
Hearing what she said, Duan Yiyi became a little impatient, "It doesn't matter what she does, either ignore her or kill her directly. What's the point of worrying about?"
Ru Xin glanced at her coldly and said calmly: "Senior Brother Lie is kind-hearted. If she is really innocent, Senior Brother is prepared to take her for a ride."
They are sect monks, and they always have some of the arrogance and kindness of sect disciples.
If this female cultivator is just an innocent passerby who accidentally enters this place, she may be okay now, but if she is allowed to wander around here, she may die at some point.
Duan Yiyi frowned when she heard this, "Take her for a ride? We have important things to do here. What if taking her for a ride drags us down?"
"If we really fight, no one will care about her!"
Duan Yiyi's words were harsh, but Lu Sangjiu felt as if he had been forgiven. He nodded hurriedly and said, "Yes, taking me with you may hinder you. You don't have to worry about me. I'll be careful and I'll be fine!"
It's a pity that her extremely sincere speech was only regarded as sensible and restrained by others.
Tang Ming glanced at her with some pity, and then said to Duan Yiyi: "Junior Sister Duan, master teaches us not to abandon the moral principles in our hearts."
"This girl is also a living person. If we can save her, it will be considered a merit."
The more he said this, the more Duan Yiyi disliked Lu Sangjiu.
When she was about to say something, Lie Rufeng suddenly spoke, "No need to argue anymore."
He looked at Lu Sangjiu and said, "What's your name?"
"...Lu Xin"
"Well, just stay with me and I will take you out."
Lu Sangjiu: "..."
No, she really didn’t want to go on an adventure with them!
She could tell that Lie Rufeng was the one with the highest cultivation among the few, followed by Duan Yiyi. Both of them should be at the level of immortals, but Lie Rufeng was much stronger than Duan Yiyi.
Then there is Tang Ming, who should be at the peak of Earth Immortal, and the remaining Ru Xin is at the middle stage of Earth Immortal, and is a little higher than Lu Sangjiu.
Among the four people, the one who had the final say was obviously Lie Rufeng. At this time, he asked her to follow him, which was considered to be a bold move based on his skill.
But precisely because he spoke, no one else had any room to refute this matter.
Lu Sangjiu couldn't help but struggled again, "Thank you for your kindness, Master Immortal, but... but won't this be too much trouble?"
Lie Rufeng gave her a cold look, "Stop talking nonsense and follow up."
Lu Sangjiu: "...Thank you so much, Master Immortal!"
So she, who originally wanted to pretend to be weak and escape smoothly, was now forced to form a team and go on an adventure with a group of people.
After all, she is a poor little girl who is lost. At this time, she should show joy when someone reaches out to help. If she resists too much, she will inevitably arouse suspicion again.
Lie Rufeng talked little and didn't talk to her again after letting Lu Sangjiu follow her.
Tang Ming, on the other hand, introduced several of them to Lu Sangjiu very enthusiastically, and then Lu Sangjiu knew their names.
"Which sect are those immortal masters disciples of?"
She asked along the way, but Tang Ming didn't mean to hide it, "We are disciples of the Qiyue Sect, and we formed a team to practice together."
Is it actually the Qiyue Sect? Lu Sangjiu thought it was a coincidence that the Taoist Shisong who led her to ascend on the Immortal Platform was from the Qiyue Sect.
After running so far, she didn't expect to meet a disciple of the Qiyue Sect, but it was fate.
After a few words of conversation, Lu Sangjiu could tell that Tang Ming had a good-natured personality, and since his cultivation was not the highest, she wanted to follow him.
This way, if something happens, she will be able to respond more easily.
But unexpectedly, just a few steps behind and saying a few words to Tang Ming, Lie Rufeng suddenly stopped and looked back at her, "Follow me."
