Chapter 143 - Deception
Lying on the bed, my heart was filled with emotions. I had intended to leave this place tomorrow, but in the end … The night was still unsettling.
Fortunately, Chen Ye, Chu Yu and my master were not weak either.
However, I can't always have Chen Ye, Chu Yu and my master protect me so I have to work hard to learn my own abilities in order to not be harmed in the slightest.
"Southern Mountain." Lying in bed, I muttered.
This name sounds like a very lofty name, but I never asked Master what exactly does Spiritual Assembly do. Is it really the same name as it, and is it related to ghosts and gods?
But after thinking about it later, I will know about it after I go to Southern Mountain tomorrow. There's really no need for me to be concerned about this now.
Looking at the time on his phone, it was almost midnight. He quickly closed his eyes and prepared to sleep.
According to what Master meant, I have to get up early tomorrow, I'm afraid … I slept until eight o'clock was a luxury.
If I don't take a good rest now, I'm afraid I'll have to take a nap tomorrow.
"Who is it …" Just when I was sleeping soundly, the sound of someone violently knocking on the door due to the infection made me sit up and rub my eyes.
I hate it when people disturb me when I'm sleeping soundly, because at this time I have a very strong feeling of getting up and wanting to be angry.
"You're still sleeping. Look at the time, it's already late." The moment my words landed, my master's voice came from the door.
"…" After being stunned for a moment, I reacted and hurriedly put on my clothes to open the door for Master.
It was too late to get up this morning.
"Are you ready? Could he have just woken up? " Looking at my sleepy appearance, Master was both angry and amused.
"Right away. Right away." While rubbing my eyes, I hastily replied to my master.
I was really too sleepy. When I got up from the bed, it took a lot of willpower.
"Alright, I'll be waiting for you in the living room. You should hurry up and pack up, it's time for us to leave as well." Seeing me like this, Master didn't know what to say. He could only give me a few words of advice before turning around and leaving.
Hearing my master's words, I hurriedly closed the door and returned to my room. First, I washed my face with cold water.
Maybe it was the cold water, but I felt a lot more awake.
He combed his hair as fast as he could, tidied up his things, then carried his backpack to the living room.
"This is …" When I walked into the living room, I found that Chen Ye was like me, wearing a backpack and sitting on the sofa with his master, waiting for me.
I was stunned in place for a moment, not knowing what in the world Master and Chen Ye were up to.
"Are you excited? Are you happy? Are you happy? I'll go with you." After seeing me standing blankly on the spot, Chen Ye hurriedly walked over and stood in front of me as he spoke to me in an especially agitated manner.
"Master, he's going too?" Ignoring Chen Ye's words, I turned my head to look at Master, and asked puzzledly.
Didn't Master say that he would go alone? Why did he involve Chen Ye in this?
Moreover, this is a matter between master and disciple, why is Chen Ye involved?
However … When I looked at my master, I realized that my master had been winking at me the entire time. I understood then, my master probably wasn't willing to bring Chen Ye along, it was Chen Ye who shamelessly followed behind the two of us.
"I wasn't surprised, but I was scared." I turned my head and looked at Chen Ye, smiling bitterly as I said this.
I don't know how Chen Ye shamelessly pestered my master, making it difficult for my master to reject him.
But seeing that Master has been winking at me, I can't let Chen Ye follow us either.
I am afraid that Master has his own decisions to make, furthermore, I do not wish for Chen Ye to follow me.
"How can you say that about me? If I go with the two of you, it'll just be enough to protect you. " After hearing that there was only shock and no surprises from what I said, Chen Ye looked at me with a heartbroken expression, as if he thought that I had done something absolutely tragic.
With regards to Chen Ye's bragging, I also didn't want to care about it. I walked over to the side of the sofa and sat down.
"Tell me, why do you insist on following us?" After I sat on the sofa, I could clearly feel my master tugging at my clothes. Then, he turned his head, looking at Chen Ye as he said this.
There must be a reason why Master didn't want Chen Ye to follow us, so I just need to listen to Master's words directly.
"Of course it's to protect you." Regarding my accusation, Chen Ye actually said these words to me righteously.
In an instant, I looked at Chen Ye and choked myself with saliva.
Protect me?
Chen Ye actually said he would protect me?
"Cough, cough, cough …" I say, big brother, you aren't joking with me, right? I only need my master to protect me, so it's better if you don't follow the two of us out to join in the fun. " After coughing violently a few times, I patted my chest in an effort to calm myself down, and spoke to Chen Ye.
The three words' protect 'are really straightforward, but the key thing is, my master isn't bad either.
Furthermore, there are so many people in Southern Mountain, could it be that ghosts will come looking for me?
Unless that ghost really hated him living for too long, so he went looking for death.
"I …" Seeing me say that, Chen Ye didn't agree with me in his heart. Looking at me, he opened his mouth, but when Chen Ye just said that word, he was interrupted.
Furthermore, Southern Mountain is a talented man, you don't have to worry too much about me. Alright, since it's been decided so happily, you don't have to follow us anymore, Master, it's getting late, we should hurry up and set off. " As I said that, I pulled my master up. Taking advantage of the time that Chen Ye didn't react to, I immediately brought him and ran out.
After saying so much, it was all to make Chen Ye unable to react in a short period of time. If he stayed here for too long, Chen Ye could finally react.
