Chapter 598: My Fault?!
In Youyou’s eyes, there truly was an aggressive fire, as if it could spew out flames at any moment and burn Lan Ling to ashes.
Seeing this, everyone couldn’t help but imagine Youyou’s current thoughts: Get out of my way, I must kill this bastard today!
Because Xiao Xue was too short, they had to leap onto Youyou’s back, tightly hugging Youyou’s neck to stop its impulse to immediately leap and bite Lan Ling to death!
Lan Ling was also furious, almost jumping up, and asked, on what grounds was this beast acting today!
Han Jing and the others hadn’t even had the chance to celebrate the joy of their great success, and were bewildered by the imminent clash between the person and the wolf, wondering... what exactly happened?
Han Jing rushed forward, standing between Youyou and Lan Ling, with his back to Youyou, he asked Lan Ling, "Go ahead, what exactly happened? What did you do to provoke Youyou again?"
No matter what happened, without any need to guess, it was definitely Lan Ling’s fault. Youyou, a wolf with human-like intelligence and strong principles, would occasionally have minor squabbles with Lan Ling but would never truly get angry. Unless Lan Ling had done something to really provoke it today, Youyou wouldn’t be furious!
Lan Ling snapped, pointing at Youyou behind Han Jing, yelling: "My fault?! I provoked it?! At such a critical time today, would I bother to provoke it? Why don’t you ask what’s gotten into it today? Right after you went down, it wanted to jump in immediately. If I hadn’t held it back with all my strength, who knows where it would be now! Just now, as soon as we landed, it wanted to jump away again, look, it wanted to leap in that direction!"
Lan Ling pointed towards the Spirit Flame Sect’s direction: "Going to the Spirit Flame Sect now, isn’t that courting trouble? What if I didn’t stop it? What would happen then?"
Lan Ling was really both angry and aggrieved. He could understand the excitement Youyou felt upon seeing the Spirit Flame Sect and the familiar environment, but things were different now. Big events had happened, and today’s Spirit Flame Sect was no longer the Spirit Flame Sect of the past. He had inquired, and although, in recent years, the boss was nominally the Sect Leader of the Spirit Flame Sect, he barely took care of any matters, living reclusively, barely ever seen even within the sect.
Lan Mu, who had stayed in the Spirit Flame Sect and kept conveying messages to them, also mentioned that within these five years, the boss had only been seen a handful of times.
So it wasn’t that he wanted to stop Youyou, it was that he must stop Youyou! The Spirit Flame Sect now was infiltrated with unknown spies, people from Beihan Palace, people from Lingyou Hall, and even from other sects. Every move could be noticed!
Didn’t he long for the past days? But what could he do! He had worked very hard on cultivation over these years, but he was still helpless.
Now as they were finally making progress, about to establish the Prayer Pavilion, everything was about to take a turn, how could there be any mistakes!
Han Jing looked at Lan Ling’s aggrieved expression, his heart sank, and turned back to look in the direction of the Spirit Flame Sect.
So far away, yet it seemed so close.
He was right there, they all knew, he was right there.
Yet now, none of them could go there to find him, couldn’t stand in front of him, just like before.
