939 Giving Herb (2)
At this critical moment, no matter how good Shen Miao was at tolerating, she couldn’t help but shout angrily, “Good people are harmed by bad people, but the bad people are not punished. What kind of Heavenly Dao is this? What kind of justice is this? Daoist priest, you’ve broadened my horizons and made me laugh.”
To everyone’s surprise, not only was Daoist Priest Chi Yan not angry, but he even laughed and clapped his hands. “After staying with that ferocious dragon for a long time, you’ve become fierce too. That’s good!”
Luo Tan muttered softly, “Is he crazy? Why is he so happy to be scolded…”
Daoist Priest Chi Yan said, “You’re right. The Heavenly Dao is unfair. The people of the world are in charge of the world. The Heavenly Dao decides fate, but it can’t decide life or death.” He smiled. Although he was wearing tattered clothes, at this moment, he actually exuded the aura of an otherworldly sage. He said, “Although I’m not destined to change his fate, and his fate is too noble for me to change, the Heavenly Dao still brought us to meet here.”
Everyone was confused by his elusive language. Only Shen Miao looked at him sharply. The Daoist priest said, “Do you really want to save him?”
“That’s right.”
The Daoist priest smiled again. “Since you want to save him so much, come with me.” With that, he turned around and was about to walk forward.
Shen Miao followed without hesitation. Hui Xiang and the others also followed.
Daoist Priest Chi Yan suddenly turned around and looked at Hui Xiang and the others. “You can’t come.”
“Why?” Cong Yang looked angry. They were ordered to protect Shen Miao’s safety. How could they let Shen Miao go with a strange Daoist priest alone? If anything happened, how would they explain it to Xie Jingxing when he woke up?
“There’s a formation set up by my shifu ahead of us. No one in the world can solve the formation, including me. It’s targeting people with martial arts. The higher your martial arts, the faster you’ll die. This madam doesn’t have any martial arts and can come with me. As for the rest of you…” He shook his head.” If you come, you’ll die.”
“But why should we believe that you won’t harm Madam?” Hui Xiang said, “If you don’t let us follow you, how will we know where you will take Madam?”
Daoist Priest Chi Yan spread out his hands. “If you don’t believe me, you can bring your madam back right now.”
Shen Miao said, “Just wait for me here. I’ll go with him.”
“Madam.” Ba Jiao also disagreed.
“Well…” Luo Tan carefully said, “I mean, can I go? Although I know martial arts, my martial arts are not outstanding. I shouldn’t be affected, right?”
Only then did Daoist Priest Chi Yan seem to see Luo Tan. He sized her up and said, “Not bad. You don’t know a lot of martial arts. Alright, you come with me.”
