Chapter 281

His understanding of the Qinglong Society naturally rose several notches.

At the same time.

He was filled with confidence and anticipation for becoming stronger!!

After touring around once.

Under Li Taibai's deliberate show-off.

Senior Dugu Jian and the other three witnessed just how extravagant the Qinglong Society was!

The excitement and thrill in their hearts could not be described in words.

Even someone as composed as Senior Dugu Jian.

Could not hide the joy on his aged face.

If it weren't for Ximen Wudi still being away, waiting to be received.

They would have long since given in to their impulses and rushed straight to the Mission Hall to take on tasks and grind points!

"You'll stay here for now."

"There's no rush to take on missions until you've met the Great Dragon Chief."

He led the four to a secluded courtyard.

Li Taibai chuckled teasingly.

"Thank you, Fifth Dragon Chief."

In response.

Senior Dugu Jian and the other three did not refuse.

They exchanged a few more pleasantries.

Li Taibai turned and headed toward his own small courtyard.

However.

Before he could even steady himself, his disciple Lu Linxuan came into view.

"Master."

She bowed respectfully.

Lu Linxuan greeted him cautiously.

"You finally remember to come back?"

"I was starting to think you weren't coming back at all?"

"I don't know whether you're my disciple or the Great Dragon Chief's disciple."

Li Taibai rolled his eyes.

He huffed irritably.

It was one thing when he was away.

But even when he was at Qinglong Peak, this disciple of his came by only once every ten or fifteen days.

Good grief.

Is the Great Dragon Chief's charm really that terrifying?!

Don't I, the Poet-Sword Immortal, have any dignity?!!

You're making me look like such a fool!!

He silently grumbled to himself.

Watching her hang her head, silent and stammering.

Li Taibai plopped down unceremoniously onto a stone bench nearby.

He waved his hand, tilted his head, and let out a light huff.

"Speak up—what do you want from me?!"

"Um… I'd like to ask you for leave, Master."

Seeing he had seen through her thoughts at a glance.

Lu Linxuan was straightforward.

She stated her purpose bluntly.

"Leave? What do you plan to do?"

Li Taibai frowned slightly.

His gaze turned toward her with a hint of confusion.

"A father's murder cannot be forgiven."

"Back then, the Black and White Wuchang of the Xuanming Sect killed my father."

"Now that I've made some progress in my cultivation, I want to kill them and avenge my father!!"

Lu Linxuan replied through gritted teeth.

As she spoke.

Whether or not she had recalled the past events.

Her eyes slightly reddened.

In her pupils, a glimmer of hatred flashed!

"I see."

"Alright, go then."

"Here's my token."

"If anything unexpected happens, you can use my token to command the Qinglong Society members in the Tang Empire."

Li Taibai fell silent for two breaths.

He gave a slight nod.

As he spoke,

he pulled a token from his bosom.

and tossed it straight toward her.

"Thank you, Master!"

Lu Linxuan felt a warmth in her heart.

She reached out and caught the token.

She bowed deeply with solemn respect.

She tucked the token into her bosom.

She turned and left without hesitation.

"This girl is so impatient!"

"Well, at least she's my first disciple—I can't let her perish like this."

"Otherwise, if it got out, wouldn't I lose all my face?!"

He watched her retreating figure.

Li Taibai shook his head and muttered under his breath, stubborn as a dying duck.

A flicker of pride crossed his face.

He moved his body—and vanished from where he stood.

Meanwhile,

in the Tang Empire, Changancheng.

"So the Qinglong Fruit is really that powerful?!"

"If I could get that Great Dragon Chief to help, wouldn't the Dieder be saved?"

She lightly bit her index finger.

Chi Meng tilted her small head and pondered for a moment.

She muttered to herself.

Then she snapped her fingers with a cheerful grin.

"Hehe, I'm so smart."
