Chapter 741 They Are Here?
“Jing, I’ve told you that this man is not reliable but you didn’t believe me. Now, you see? I wasn’t lying.”
The old woman holding the stick walks on the mountainous path with Meng Jing, her lips curling into a sneer.
“You are right.” Meng Jing nods.
The old woman heaves a sigh and continues saying, “When we were in Qiu City, I saw him exchange amorous glances with Xia Lu. Back then, I didn’t think too much. Come to think of it now, I really found his true color quite in time.”
Meng Jing looks rather sulky and doesn’t respond.
“However, it is nothing. There are so many disciples in the Ghost Sect. It is not a difficult thing to find a good man for you. When we return to the Ghost Sect, I will start to arrange it for you. Humph. When they know about your situation, they will surely strive to marry you,” the old woman continues saying.
Meng Jing is disgruntled and hastens to say, “Granny, forget about it. I don’t want to think about it for now. All I want is to serve you.”
“I’m not too old to walk.” The old woman shakes her head and says, “So, I don’t need you to serve me for now. Besides, there are so many people in the Ghost Sect and I have lots of people to serve me. I cannot let you do these trivial things anyway. Moreover, a girl should find her Mr. Right when she is still young. I have been down this road before. I know more than you. It is always said that there are two cures for emotional injuries. One is time and the other is a new sweetheart. We don’t have to waste time on such a matter so you may as well find a new sweetheart.”
Meng Jing pulls a long face.
She has been down this road before? She must have watched too many TV dramas.
Seeing that Meng Jing still wants to refute, the old woman suddenly puts on a stern expression and says, “You keep refusing my suggestion. Is it because you still haven’t moved on? Or are you going to betray us?”
Meng Jing hastens to shake her head and says with a bitter smile, “Granny, I never mean to.”
“You had better not,” the old woman snorts and says, “You must listen to me on everything.”
“Yes…”
Meng Jing feels somewhat resigned but she is unwilling to talk too much about this issue with the old woman. All she wants to do is go back to the Ghost Sect with the old woman as soon as possible. By then, her mission will be over and she can return to the Dragon Court. Well… She is not sure whether she can go back alive at that time. From the beginning, Meng Jing has known this is a very dangerous mission but she has never regretted accepting it. For one thing, she is a member of the Dragon Court. For another, she is doing this for Gao Ge. Since Gao Ge hates the people of the Ghost Sect so much, it will be of great help for him if she can help find the base of the Ghost Sect.
Thinking of that, she finally wears a smile.
“Oh right, Granny, are we going back to the Ghost Sect now?” Meng Jing asks.
“No rush,” the old woman shakes her head and says, “I find the traces of our sect’s disciple in the mountain. He seems to have found a place of Yin, where he is drawing the Yin Qi to heal himself. Since I’ve noticed it, I should go and take a look at it.”
“Yes, Granny.”
After walking for two hours or so, the old woman stops.
There is a cave nearby.
Meng Jing can feel the frigid wind oozing from the cave even if she stays at a distance.
The old woman stands in situ and stares ahead for a while. Then, she nods lightly and gives a satisfied look.
“This is supposed to be a dragon vein but the disciple of the Ghost Sect has turned the dragon vein into a Yin dragon vein and changed it into a good place for cultivation. If I guess it right, 81 dragon-restricting nails are buried behind the cave. Alas. Burying the nails is not complicated. The difficult part is to find every position accurately. The disciple got one wrong accidentally but despite that, he is pretty good. Jing, how is your soul harnessing skill cultivation going now?”
Meng Jing is slightly dazed. She didn’t expect the old woman to talk about her again but she still hastens to say with a nod, “Just okay.”
“Alas. This is so strange. By reason, you are very suitable for cultivating the occult method of the Ghost Sect but you haven’t made much progress for such a long time. Forget it. Even so, you are much better than the ordinary people.” The old woman shakes her head and doesn’t continue asking.
Actually, the so-called soul harnessing skill is not complicated to Meng Jing. The reason why she makes progress slowly is that she is unwilling to cultivate the evil method of the Ghost Sect.
“Let’s go. Follow me inside.”
“Yes, Granny.”
Upon following the old woman into the cave, Meng Jing subconsciously shivers. However, she feels relaxed and happy soon. A rush of power within her starts to surge and a streak of claw-shaped light is glistening in the middle of her eyebrows.
The old woman turns around and takes a look. With a nod, she laughs and seems quite happy.
“Jing, you must seize the time to merge with the one within your body.”
Meng Jing grits her teeth and nods her head, feeling uncomfortable in her heart.
She knows what is hidden inside her body. As such, she feels rather upset.
“Who is there?” A clear sound suddenly comes from the depths of the cave, which doesn’t sound old.
“Erk?” The old woman is slightly dazed and asks, “You are from the Ghost Sect? Who are you?”
A figure gradually walks out of the cave.
“You are also from the Ghost Sect?” It is a young man above 20 years old who is talking. When he walks over, Men Jing’s face is etched with astonishment.
“It is you?”
The young man is also a bit shocked to see Meng Jing.
“Meng Jing? Why are you here?”
Then he puts on a sinister smile.
“Great. This is great. What a coincidence! Unexpectedly, I can meet you here…” The man bursts out laughing viciously.
…
In the car, Gao Ge looks at Heaven Dragon next to him and asks, “Where are you taking me to?”
“Don’t ask now. You will know it when we arrive,” after saying that, Heaven Dragon starts to rest with closed eyes.
Gao Ge puckers his lips with disgruntlement, “Why can’t Xia Lu come along?”
“As I said, you will know it when we arrive.”
An hour later, Gao Ge finds that he seems to have entered a heavily sentried region.
Even the base of the Dragon Court is not so strict.
“Don’t look around. Those living here are key protected people,” Heaven Dragon says with a smile.
His words have rendered Gao Ge lost in wild thoughts and a bit excited.
When the car completely stops, Gao Ge raises his head to look at the words above and then appears surprised.
“They are here?”
“What? Are you surprised?” Heaven Dragon bursts out laughing.
