Chapter 629 I'm Not Safe Alone
Rulong slowly glanced at the monks of the joint defense brigade, a gentle smile appeared on his face, and he said loudly: "Everyone, you should also enter this Thunder Pond Cave to obtain the Thunder Yuan Crystal Stone. Just say that it was me, Rulong, who let you in."
Hearing Rulong's words, the people in the joint defense team were stunned at first, and then they showed ecstasy on their faces, and they all bowed and thanked him: "Thank you, Captain!"
For a moment, the atmosphere was extremely warm. Rulong laughed loudly, and Rumeng beside him couldn't help but smile, and several people from the joint defense team were laughing so hard that they couldn't stop.
Then, amidst laughter and joy, they ran towards the Lei Chi Cave excitedly like arrows shot from a bow.
However, Ling'er, who was standing far away, did not recognize Rumeng. At this time, Rumeng was wearing a thin veil, covering her face tightly, making it difficult for people to see her true appearance. Ling'er naturally had no way of knowing that Rumeng and Ruhuan were exactly the same. Seeing how caring and protective Rulong was towards Rumeng, she could not help but feel a strange fluctuation in her heart. She thought to herself, could this woman be Rulong's lover? Once this idea came into being, it spread like wild grass in her heart. In addition, she wanted to personally confirm some ideas in her heart, so Ling'er finally couldn't hold back her steps and slowly walked towards where Rulong was.
Rulong soon noticed Ling'er who was walking towards him, and asked with a smile: "Fellow Daoist Ling'er, is there anything you can ask me?"
Ling'er looked at Rulong in front of her, and her previous guess became more certain in her heart, and she felt that there was no need to confirm it. Whether it was Rulong's tall and straight figure, clear and pleasant voice, or his unfathomable cultivation, as well as the fact that he could call out her name accurately and showed a sense of familiarity, all of them showed that this man was the man in her memory. So, Ling'er calmed down and said softly: "Thank you, Young Alliance Leader, for your help just now."
Rulong waved his hand and said with a carefree smile: "It's just a small favor, Brother Ling'er, don't worry about it."
There was a hint of surprise in Rumeng's beautiful eyes. She had naturally heard all kinds of rumors about Ling'er in the secret realm. Could it be that there was really some unknown relationship between Rulong and him? However, if the two were really lovers, why did they have to be so polite to each other? How true and credible were those rumors?
I think Rulong probably doesn't know about the rumors about him and Ling'er. However, what is puzzling is that Ling'er keeps a tacit attitude towards it. Perhaps, what Ling'er experienced has nothing to do with Rulong.
At this time, Ling'er finally got a clear answer from Rulong, which further confirmed that Rulong had helped her. After all, there were only a few people who knew the inside details of this matter, and with Rulong's characteristics, why would he lie? How could he make up lies to deceive others for no reason?
Then, Ling'er bit her lip lightly and said to Rulong shyly, "Brother Rulong, I really don't feel safe here alone." Hearing this, Rulong frowned slightly and asked, "What about the other people in your Lion Qi Sect?"
Ling'er hurriedly explained: "They have all gone to look for various cultivation resources, so now I am the only one left alone. I wonder if it is convenient for Brother Rulong, can you let me form a team with you and move forward together?" After saying that, Ling'er's big watery eyes looked at Rulong expectantly, as if waiting for his response.
At this time, Rulong had already realized that this beautiful female monk had already recognized him and had other thoughts about him. Faced with this situation, Rulong couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed. Rumeng, who was standing by, saw Rulong's embarrassed expression and couldn't bear it, so she quickly said, "Miss Ling'er, if you don't mind, why don't you join us in the team?"
Seeing Rulong's hesitation, Ling'er knew she couldn't force him, so she nodded and said with a smile, "In that case, thank you for your kindness, sister! It will be very interesting to travel with my group."
Rumeng knew Ling'er a little bit. After all, Ling'er was one of the ten famous beauties of the Lion Qi Sect! In addition to Rumeng's relationship with Ling'er and Rulong, and Ling'er's not-so-strong cultivation, Rumeng was relatively relieved about this matter.
Not long after, those who entered the Leichi Cave for exploration came out one by one in high spirits. Looking at their happy and proud faces, it was obvious that everyone had gained a lot this time and the trip was worthwhile!
At this time, Rulong said: "Well, since everyone has returned from Leichi Cave with a full load, then let's go about our own business."
The people from Fengqi Sect are waiting for Feng Qingcheng; the people from Huqi Sect are waiting for Ruhuan; Li Yuanyuan, Qinghuang and others are waiting for Bohu; the people from Jinghua Island are waiting for Jingzhonghua.
After Jing Zhong Hua, Feng Qingcheng, Ruhuan, Bo Hu and Rulong waved goodbye, Ru Meng and others also said goodbye to Rulong.
Then, Liu Ruyan and Wang Yuyan also said goodbye to Rulong. But Rulong called them to stop and whispered in a low voice: "I want to go to Longqi Sect with you. Please help me arrange the itinerary. Remember to keep it a secret. The fewer people who know about this, the better."
Hearing Rulong's words, Liu Ruyan and Wang Yuyan were naturally delighted, but at the same time they also secretly guessed that perhaps the reason why Rulong wanted to go to Longqi Sect was probably to see Li Shishi. When they thought of this, they couldn't help but feel an indescribable bitterness in their hearts.
Liu Ruyan immediately responded: "Then...then will you come with us now?"
