Chapter 2106: Chapter 2106: Giving an Opportunity to Outsiders
“Hmm, you’re going out.”
An Jiuyue gave a soft response, then asked him.
“I want to go outside and have a look,” said Leng Yikun.
“High Priest, are you planning to go out? Yuu Rong was called away by Master Qian. Otherwise, shall I accompany you?” he asked.
“A casual stroll is fine, your company would be good.”
After thinking it over, An Jiuyue decided it would be good to have Leng Yikun accompany her, so she took him out with her.
…
Sect Master Xue met Yuu Rong, and upon hearing that Qian Jiyun had summoned him, he hurried over.
They should have taken the main gate, but Yuu Rong tricked him into thinking there were guards at the main gate and Qian Jiyun didn’t want others to see him coming, so the two of them scaled the wall instead.
Outside in the courtyard, Xue Manyu secretly hid behind the rockery, waiting for an opportunity, for the moment the disciples would change guard, so she could sneak into the courtyard.
“What’s the matter with these people? Isn’t it just the High Priest Demon Heart? Is there a need to guard so tightly?”
Seeing the disciples vigilantly guarding the courtyard, she stamped her feet in frustration on the spot. Even if those disciples blinked, she could slip in.
But it was precisely so infuriating, the disciples were too responsible, not giving her any chance.
“They’re not criminals, why guard so tightly? Those unaware might think there’s someone imprisoned in this courtyard. Tsk, my father isn’t afraid of offending the High Priest Demon Heart.”
She muttered under her breath, but her eyes remained fixed on the gate, afraid of missing the best time to enter.
“Yi Kun, I’m hungry. Have those disciples prepare a meal for me,” An Jiuyue came into the courtyard and ordered Leng Yikun beside her after looking at the disciples guarding the place.
“And, tell them not to keep standing guard here, it’s an eyesore.”
“Yes, High Priest.”
Leng Yikun assented and headed towards the disciples.
Whatever he said to them, the disciples left and did not appear again.
“Master, this is…”
Wei Na in the space twitched his mouth corners, speechless.
“We mustn’t give those outside any chance. If she tries to act on her own, she probably couldn’t enter the courtyard even if she were sent to Reflection Cliff,” said An Jiuyue with arms folded across her chest, as if it were something quite significant.
By doing this, she indeed solved a big problem for Xue Manyu. With the disciples no longer standing guard, would she not be able to enter the courtyard unobstructed?
However, that wasn’t enough. She had to give Xue Manyu another opportunity.
With that thought, a paper person appeared in her hand, which she transformed into a grown man with a wave of her hand, standing by her side.
“Master.”
“Go,” An Jiuyue waved her hand, and he walked towards the outside of the courtyard.
“High Priest, what is this…”
Leng Yikun had just arrived when he saw the paper person passing by his side, and he couldn’t help but pause for a moment and ask.
Although the paper person looked almost like a real person, he could still sense the difference, a very faint aura.
She took Leng Yikun with her and walked to a corner. There, she pulled out a round tea table and two chairs and sat down.
“Since you have no other duties, sit with me for a while.”
“Yes, High Priest.”
Leng Yikun also sat down, not understanding what the High Priest intended to do.
…
On the other side by the rockery, Xue Manyu saw the disciples hurriedly leaving, her eyes suddenly shining with brightness, and her mood improved tremendously.
The disciples had all left. Wasn’t her opportunity now here?
