Chapter 280: Depart! (2/2)

“Sure! However, be careful yourself. Furthermore, try your best not to take out those spiritual artifacts I have given you people, so as to avoid others finding trouble with you,” With regards to Ning Yan proposition to go their own way, this was exactly what he had been waiting for. According to Cheng Yu’s calculation, he should have already exceeded his three month deadline. He needed to put in all his effort to search for the Heavenly God Palace as well as that nuisance, Death Palace, before returning home. However, with Huaxian Valley and Cangling Sect people around, he had no choice but to delay the matters. It would be impolite of him to chase them away. Now that she had proposed it, how could Cheng Yu not be willing?

“Thank you for your friendly reminder. With regards to the favor you have given to us, I will definitely report it to the sect, and convey the thanks we have for you,” Ning Yan spoke gratiously. Her impression of Cheng Yu had also changed tremendously. Although he would occasionally tease others, at the very least he was very generous and paid huge importance to comradery. But the current her was representing her sect. All her actions had to benefit the sect in some way.

Following Cheng Yu was indeed very relaxing and comfortable. But she had also accepted her teacher’s mission. She needed to obtain the upcoming treasure. If she were to be with Cheng Yu, if they were to really discover any treasure, she would never be able to obtain any benefits. Although Cheng Yu was generous, when facing an alluring treasure, she believed that no one would not be aroused by it and would be willing to gift it to others. Therefore, for the treasure, they needed to be separate and search for it themselves.

Of course, searching for their own sect sisters was also one of their objectives. After all, their big martial sister as well as second martial sister had also brought two other groups in. If they were to converge, it couldn’t be any better. The reason why Ning Yan didn’t propose this the moment they entered the core region was because she wanted to understand the situation inside the region first. If it was too dangerous, she would never propose the parting of their own ways. At the very least, it wouldn’t be so quickly. But after a day of observation and understanding, she realized there wasn’t much danger here. She felt that she had the ability to lead the group to search for treasure in this region.

Cheng Yu did not have any complex thoughts like Ning Yan. His objective was very simple. “If you wish to follow me, I can ensure your safety. Once you leave, I will never interfere.”

“Have a safe trip then, Beauty Ning Yan!” Cheng Yu laughed. For her to report it to the sect also signified that she was sending a signal, a friendly signal. To Cheng Yu, this was actually good. At the very least, they wouldn’t become enemies. Ning Yan was also very helpless. Previously, she was also very angry with how Cheng Yu had addressed her. However, it was useless correcting him as no matter how many times she corrected him, Cheng Yu would still address her that manner.

When they were roasting the meat together, none of them spoke. Everyone was silent. Previously, the noisiest time would be when they were roasting meat with Cheng Yu. However today, none of them had the mood to speak. Noticing the situation, Ning Yan was also very helpless. But what other choice did she have? For the sect’s benefits, they had to leave.

“What’s wrong with you people today? Could the meat that I roasted today not be to your liking?” Sensing how none of them had the intention to speak, Cheng Yu sprinkled the seasoning onto the meat as he spoke.

“Are you very happy?” Seeing how Cheng Yu seemed to not be affected by their upcoming departure, Ning Wushuang was very unhappy.

“Shouldn’t I be happy?” Cheng Yu laughed.

“You are heartless!” Ning Xue spoke.

“For you to have said such a sentence, it shows that you are even more heartless. Whatever you ate everyday was mine and you still needed me to safeguard you. Furthermore, all of you got a spiritual artifact from me. You tell me, where is your conscience?” Cheng Yu replied ill-manneredly.

“You…I…you’re a man. How can you be so calculative?!” Ning Xue’s face reddened.

“Wrong! I am a handsome, confident and domineering man. It is because I’m such a man that I have never said anything about it. This is something you have pointed out yourself.”

“…Shameless,” Ning Xue rolled her eyes.

“Here here here. Everyone have your dinner! In the future, you will no longer be able to enjoy such a moment,” Cheng Yu ignored her and divided the roasted meat to everyone else.

“Senior Sister, are we really parting ways? Isn’t following him good? If we part ways and come across any demonic beasts, we will be in big trouble,” Finishing her dinner, while returning to their tents, Ning Xue asked Ning Yan.
