1537 A trip down the mountain

Luo Heng gulped. After a pause, he went in and came to the bedroom. When he saw the figure sitting on the bed, he went forward and cupped his fists to salute him, “Master, did you call Disciple over to receive a command?”

Duan Mubai caught sight of Luo Heng and sized him up with a glance. To be honest, he had many disciples. Luo Heng’s strength, cultivation and alchemy talent could only be regarded as middle-low level, so he had never paid attention to him before.

Recently, he remembered such a person among his disciples due to Feng Jiu’s matter. He’s close to Feng Jiu. Besides him, it seemed Chen Dao was also on good terms with Feng Jiu.

“You should know Feng Jiu very well!”

On hearing this, Luo Heng trembled inwardly. He waved his hand in a hurry. “No, no! Actually, I’m not familiar at all. I just…” That was the little scourge who not only killed the Peak Master but also slain the sect master’s super divine beast and burned down the sect. How dare he say that he was familiar with that senior?

“Don’t be afraid. I’m not doing any investigation.” Duan Mubai raised his hand and motioned for him not to panic. “I know that you’re rather close to him. He was able to enter the Third Sun Peak because you introduced him.”

Luo Heng’s face turned pale and his eyelids twitched. He thought to himself, “I’m done for. He said he wouldn’t investigate anything, but in fact, he’s raking up old scores. Even Master knew that Feng Jiu, that scourge, was able to enter the Third Sun Peak because of him. This, this, this was Heaven’s will to destroy me!

When he saw Luo Heng looking pale and trembling, Duan Mubai was startled. After a glance, Duan Mubai continued, “I want you to leave the sect and find her whereabouts. Can you do it?”

“Ma…Master, she…she is a Nascent…Nascent Soul. I…”

He’s not her opponent! Even if he found her, he couldn’t bring her back! What’s more, Feng Jiu had friends.h.i.+ps with them. It’s really inappropriate for him to arrest her.

“I only ask you to find her whereabouts, not to bring her back.” As he spoke, he coughed. “As for her killing the Master, the elder protecting the sect also said that it should not be mentioned again. He would no longer take action against Feng Jiu. It’s just that some things are still unclear to me, so I want to ask her in person the reasons she burned the sect and killed Master.”

In fact, he wanted to find Feng Jiu and asked whether his Junior Sister was alright. Moreover, the sect wouldn’t attack Feng Jiu. However, he thought of reminding Feng Jiu that the sect master had suffered heavy losses in her hands and it’s very likely that he wouldn’t endure this insult without fighting back.

Luo Heng was relieved to hear this and patted his chest. “I’m scared to death. So, that’s the reason!” He looked at his Master and said, “Master, if you just look for Feng Jiu and don’t want to arrest her, I can certainly do it. However, I want to ask Senior Brother Chen Dao to go with me.”

“Chen Dao? His legs…” Duan Mubai frowned.

“Master, you don’t know. Senior Brother Chen’s legs have healed a long time ago. It’s Feng Jiu who cured him. She did a great favour.”
