“Vivienne, are you looking for Uncle Chu?”
Leng Xingzhi sat in the restaurant and asked Chu Lingwei as she walked in.
“Yes.” Chu Lingwei nodded, “I don’t know if my father is looking for someone or doing something else.”
Leng Xingzhi pondered for a moment, then took Chu Lingwei to a window seat on the second floor and signaled the shopkeeper to prepare the spirit meal.
“Vivienne, are you worried about Uncle Chu’s safety?”
“Yes, someone intercepted my father’s spirit message, and I’m worried about his safety.” Chu Lingwei thought of the half spirit message her master had given her. “I can’t understand why my father would appear in so many places.”
First, the reefs of the South Sea, then the demon realm. For an ordinary cultivator to go to such places, it inevitably led to speculation.
“Uncle Chu should be fine now.”
Leng Xingzhi really wanted to tell Chu Ze his current whereabouts, but he thought that if Chu Lingwei knew some things, it would be very troublesome.
Chu Lingwei looked up and met Leng Xingzhi’s eyes. “How can you be sure my father is okay?”
“Uncle Chu appeared in Song City not long ago.” Chu Lingwei’s heart tightened. She hadn’t been wrong. Her father had indeed appeared here. “Where is he now?”
“He had already left before we arrived on the island.”
Chu Lingwei’s heart sank. As expected, her father had been here.
“Why would he come to the destroyed Song City? Does he need something here?”
Song City was deliberately blown up by the Meng family last time, and many powerful figures and experts had died. This place should have been razed to the ground. Its current prosperity was just recently built.
Why would her father come to this place? Could it be that he needed something here that he absolutely had to obtain?
“I don’t know about that.” Leng Xingzhi smiled somewhat helplessly. “Vivienne, I’m only human. Many things can only be known after investigation.”
“Then tell me, who tampered with my father’s letter?” Chu Lingwei was certain that Leng Xingzhi knew.
Leng Xingzhi’s hand holding the spirit tea cup stiffened. He thought for a moment, “You’ve met this person before.”
“Is it that person from the demon realm?” Chu Lingwei’s mind instantly recalled the person who had made her leave the demon realm. He could enter and exit the barrier set up by her and Cat Cat as if it were nothing, his cultivation comparable to the Dominator realm.
“Yes.”
Just then, the shopkeeper brought various spirit meals to the table. Leng Xingzhi picked up his chopsticks and picked up a piece of spirit meat for Chu Lingwei. “Vivienne, you haven’t eaten these past few days, you must be hungry.”
Chu Lingwei looked at Leng Xingzhi with a smile in her eyes. His guilty look was as obvious as a person with ulterior motives. He didn’t want to discuss that person with her.
“Senior Brother, you said you wouldn’t lie to me.” Chu Lingwei knew that her Senior Brother was definitely hiding something from her, but she didn’t intend to rely on him for everything. She wanted to find her father herself, so she decided to tease him.
“I really didn’t lie to you, it’s just that there are some things you can’t know yet. Your cultivation is too low. Knowing too much about things you can’t control will affect your cultivation.”
Leng Xingzhi didn’t want to hide it from Chu Lingwei, but he felt that her searching for answers herself would motivate her to improve her cultivation.
Chu Lingwei pouted. This answer was really too insulting to her pride.
There was no other way, who made her a cultivator of the Spirit Wheel realm for now.
“Vivienne, when you cultivate to the Sky Fusion realm, I will tell you some things you are allowed to know.” Leng Xingzhi reached out and pinched her cheek.
“Then when can I see my father?” Setting a goal for herself, she would work hard.
“That depends on your ability. If you can find your father now, you can see him anytime.” Leng Xingzhi didn’t stop Chu Lingwei from seeing her father, provided she had the ability to do so.
Chu Lingwei choked. This sentence seemed to hit her even harder.
“Why do I find that you all want me to find my father myself?” Chu Lingwei ate the spirit meal, thinking that her master and Senior Brother must know her father’s whereabouts, but they seemed to deliberately let her go out and search.
“Don’t you want to?” Leng Xingzhi retorted.
Chu Lingwei, “…” She couldn’t chat anymore, her Senior Brother was truly infuriating.
“Eat, eat.” Chu Lingwei didn’t believe it. With her spatial abilities and the divine artifacts within her space, she wasn’t afraid of not finding her father.
“Mm, try this.”
Leng Xingzhi nodded with a smile and turned his head. He saw the bustling crowd. A shadow, after meeting Leng Xingzhi’s gaze, revealed a smile at the corner of its mouth and turned to leave.
“Father!”
As the shadow left, Chu Lingwei’s heart suddenly ached slightly. With a flash, she appeared where the shadow had just been.
Leng Xingzhi sighed softly and came to her side.
“Vivienne, you haven’t finished your meal, why did you come out?”
“Was my father here just now?” Chu Lingwei and Chu Ze were father and daughter whose bloodlines were fused. Sometimes they had a connection. She had genuinely felt a very familiar gaze looking at her just now.
Leng Xingzhi remained silent. He couldn’t block the connection between father and daughter.
“Senior Brother, was it?” Chu Lingwei’s nose tingled. Why was her father so close to her, yet he didn’t come out to see her?
Leng Xingzhi felt as if his voice weighed a thousand pounds and uttered a single word, “Yes.”
“He doesn’t want to see me?” Chu Lingwei was certain that her father didn’t want to see her. “Senior Brother, can you do me a favor?”
“Vivienne, Uncle doesn’t want to see you, for his own reasons. Some things don’t need to be forced.” Leng Xingzhi placed his right hand on Chu Lingwei’s shoulder and said gently, “He might have unspeakable difficulties.”
“I’m just worried he’ll get hurt. Can you help me send him some things?”
Chu Lingwei thought about it. As long as her father was okay, that was enough.
Leng Xingzhi was amused by Chu Lingwei’s words. “Don’t worry, Uncle Chu was the Sect Master of the Xuanxin Sect back then. He had quite a few private collections, and he brought a lot of things when he descended the mountain.”
Refusal!
Chu Lingwei’s eyes dimmed. She returned to the table where they had been sitting and looked at the hurried cultivators below. Everyone had their own path to walk; no one else could go for anyone.
“My father stayed behind, probably wanting to see me.” Chu Lingwei thought of Chu Ze and really wanted to see him. She wondered what it would be like when they met again.
“You will meet again.”
Leng Xingzhi spoke to comfort her. As long as Chu Lingwei’s cultivation reached a certain level, their family should be reunited.
Thinking of the situation Chu Lingwei would face in the future, his eyes darkened. Vivienne must grow up quickly.
Back in the room.
Phantom Cat ran back from outside.
“Vivienne, I’m sorry, I couldn’t catch him.” Phantom Cat felt very guilty. “His aura was hidden, and I couldn’t find him.”
“It’s alright if you couldn’t find him.” Chu Lingwei sighed. It seemed her cultivation was still not enough. No, she had to cultivate harder.
