Chapter 291: Accompany Me for a Stroll
Seeing Ji Yang agree, Ren Yuning looked very pleased.
“Since you have decided to join our Heaven Demon Sect, we are now family.”
“I’ll go in first; you can call me Senior Sister Ning.”
“Uh…”
Ji Yang paused for a moment, but considering the current situation, he could only respond with:
“Greetings, Senior Sister Ning.”
Ren Yuning raised her eyebrows, unable to hide her joy.
Although many called her Senior Sister in the sect, this time felt a bit different, perhaps because it was her first time doing something for the sect!
At that moment, Ji Yang had many thoughts.
In his original self’s identity, he would naturally not reject the Heaven Demon Sect’s invitation. Even though Feng Yu seemed proud, in the face of the Heaven Demon Sect, he would certainly not be unaware of the current situation.
Clearly, agreeing for now was the best approach.
Moreover, Ji Yang would not actually join the Heaven Demon Sect. Once the auction mentioned by Wu Laoda was over, he would leave immediately!
While the two were chatting, Ren Yuning’s messaging talisman suddenly lit up.
As she listened to the message coming through, the joy on Ren Yuning’s face faded.
Seeing this, Ji Yang asked with confusion:
“Senior Sister Ning, what happened?”
Ren Yuning waved her hand:
“It’s nothing, just some minor issues.”
However, with Ji Yang’s powerful primordial spirit energy, he couldn’t miss the message in the Transmission.
It clearly reported that the search for him had yielded nothing, which was likely why Ren Yuning was unhappy.
But looking at the new storage ring in Ren Yuning’s hand, Ji Yang couldn’t help but feel a sense of awe. As the daughter of the sect leader of a large sect, her wealth was indeed extraordinary.
Unfortunately, he could not steal again.
The storage bag that Ji Yang had taken previously was still left untouched inside the Heaven’s Secret Pearl, but he was too cautious to check his spoils for now. He would have to wait until he returned to the sect to inspect them, which would be much safer.
After Ren Yuning finished speaking, she thought about how Ji Yang was no longer an outsider, but rather a disciple of the Heaven Demon Sect.
Furthermore, Ji Yang had also spoken up for her and supported her before, which changed Ren Yuning’s perspective slightly. She immediately said:
“Actually, it’s fine to tell you; it’s not a big secret.”
“The reason Uncle Guan and I came to Heaven Demon City is actually to capture a fugitive from the Heaven Demon Sect!”
Hearing this, Ji Yang was surprised and asked:
“Who could make Elder Guan and Senior Sister Ning take action personally? Is it a high-level cultivator?”
Ji Yang asked knowingly.
Ren Yuning shook her head in denial:
"This is not the case, but that person may not be a high-level cultivator, yet they are a talented disciple of He Dao Sect! They managed to escape by relying on a few unique sword energies and a special magical tool they possessed."
"I see it’s someone from He Dao Sect. Those famous righteous sects are the most hypocritical. Senior Sister Ning, I support you! You must capture this person!"
Ji Yang expressed his indignation from the side.
He thought to himself that it should be fine to casually speak ill of the sect, considering he was a rising star in it.
"Feng Yu need not worry. In two days, we will set up a great formation in the city, and then, by using a trace of their aura, we can pinpoint their location! Once that happens, there’s no way for them to escape!"
Upon hearing this, Ji Yang felt a slight shock. Although the Heaven’s Secret Pearl could shield aura, this formation that the Heaven Demon Sect was so careful about was clearly extraordinary, and he needed to respond cautiously.
It would be best to leave early to avoid any mishaps.
Thankfully, he only mentioned a couple of things; otherwise, if he got caught, he might not know why.
“Senior Sister Ning, why wait two days? Can’t we set up the formation now?”
Ji Yang asked in confusion.
“No, it won’t work. In two days, our Heaven Demon Sect will hold a large auction, which is quite important. The cultivators coming will not be ordinary ones, so we can only wait until after the auction to set up the formation.”
"But won’t Ji Yang try to sneak away before the auction?"
Ren Yuning smiled lightly, confidently holding the upper hand:
"If he leaves Heaven Demon City, that would be perfect. Our Heaven Demon Sect has already sent cultivators to guard all the important routes. With so many cultivators in the city, it’s hard to investigate this person. However, once he exits the city, it won’t be that simple."
Ji Yang’s expression brightened, but he was inwardly cursing.
Was such a big show necessary to catch him?
Thankfully, he had figured out the situation; it seemed he needed to plan further for his escape.
Ji Yang pondered, and at that moment, Ren Yuning suddenly spoke:
"By the way, Feng Yu, since we have some free time these two days, why don’t you accompany me on a stroll around Heaven Demon City?"
"I’ve been staying in the Heaven Demon Sect for years, and this is my first time in Heaven Demon City."
Seeing Ren Yuning look at him with hopeful eyes, Ji Yang smiled and said:
"Of course, it’s an honor for me!"
"In that case, I’ll trouble you, Feng Yu!"
Ren Yuning said with a smile.
Ji Yang agreed, but in his heart, he was thinking about finding a place to steal from Ren Yuning again. Perhaps he could get that compass magical tool, making himself safer in the city.
However, after thinking for a moment, Ji Yang decided against it.
Who knows if Ren Yuning has made other preparations this time?
The risk was too high and ill-timed.
As for agreeing to accompany her, it was naturally a reluctant decision.
He couldn’t just join the Heaven Demon Sect and then refuse, could he?
Sigh.
Ji Yang sighed internally. At this moment, he regretted choosing Feng Yu’s identity; it truly was a mistake.
If he had disguised himself as another cultivator, he could have just found a place to hide without this back and forth.
But thinking carefully, it wasn’t entirely bad. At least now he could understand the Heaven Demon Sect’s strategies in detail and take precautions.
At this point, he could only take things one step at a time.
After all, it was just a stroll. How hard could it be?
"Feng Yu, let’s go! I heard there’s a shop in Heaven Demon City that sells good spiritual accessories."
The two of them walked together and quickly left the inn.
…
"Customers, I’m very sorry, but the items you wanted have already sold out a few days ago."
Hearing the shopkeeper’s apologetic voice, Wu Laoda lightly nodded:
"I understand."
Then, without wasting time, Wu Laoda turned and left the shop.
Having learned from the previous experience, this time Wu Laoda did not use his real appearance; instead, he disguised himself to help Ji Yang buy what he needed.
Over the past few days, he had gone through many shops in the city, but unfortunately, he had bought very few items.
It seemed he would have to wait for the auction held in Heaven Demon City.
During these days, he had also thought about details he hadn’t considered before; for instance, Ji Yang was now a wanted criminal of the Heaven Demon Sect. Buying too much here would make it easy for someone to notice him.
If he got entangled with Ji Yang, escaping would be difficult.
Therefore, before attending the auction, he felt it was necessary to conceal his identity.
Wu Laoda walked slowly toward the flow of people on the street.
Just as he was about to enter the next shop to ask about items, his peripheral vision caught sight of a familiar figure.
