After Being Possessed By A Witch, I Became An Outlaw

Chapter 83: Preparing to Run Away

When someone becomes a die-hard fan, they can't tolerate anyone else when it comes to their idol.

As soon as Zhang Chi appeared, the cultivators of the Dragon Transformation Palace became mere decorations.

Zhang Chi, of course, knew that this was inappropriate, so he pretended to be passing by and greeted the people from the Dragon Transformation Palace.

After introducing himself, Zhang Chi also remembered the names of these people.

All five of them were young men, and they were all quite handsome.

When the five of them stood together, they really gave off the feeling of an idol group.

After all, cultivators possessed an aura of immortality, so even if they were ugly, they would have an extra layer of filter.

But when Zhang Chi stood with them, he immediately exuded an overwhelming charm.

Chen Runyu's eyes were sparkling, thinking, "Senior Brother is so handsome!"

And Zhang Chi also displayed the demeanor of a senior brother. He conversed with the cultivators of the Dragon Transformation Palace without any hint of timidity.

Unlike the guides before, who either showed excessive enthusiasm or were too timid because the other party was from the Dragon Transformation Palace.

Only Chen Runyu, because he believed that Senior Brother was the best in the world, treated them normally and was more readily accepted by the Dragon Transformation Palace.

Even if the stories he told were somewhat boring, they accepted them.

But it was different when Zhang Chi arrived.

He understood the thoughts of men very well. What was the point of just listening to the Patriarch meditating by the river?

They needed some storytelling!

So, Zhang Chi added some embellishments and adaptations to the original story.

Under his narration, the founder of the Sword Sect and the Water Monster Race became enemies. At that time, the founder of the sect was relatively weak and was constantly pursued and humiliated by the Water Monster.

But the founder of the sect was not defeated. Instead, he made a bold declaration: "Thirty years west of the river, thirty years east of the river, do not underestimate the poor youth."

So, the founder of the sect traveled around, constantly honing his Dao heart and sword skills.

By chance, he arrived at the place where the Tide Pavilion was located, observing the tides and contemplating his own life. Finally, he comprehended the Great River Sword Scripture, defeated the Water Monster, and left behind a legacy.

This story ignited the passion of the people from the Dragon Transformation Palace.

Although they had not been humiliated, they could empathize with the story and couldn't help but fantasize about being humiliated and then making a strong comeback. Just thinking about it felt great.

Under Zhang Chi's narration, they began to find this place somewhat interesting.

So, they all eagerly went to watch the tide and listen to the waves.

Zhang Chi and Chen Runyu finally had some time to relax.

Unable to resist, Chen Runyu asked in a low voice, "Senior Brother, is what you said true? Why haven't I heard this story before?"

"I also heard it from others. Actually, whether it's true or not doesn't matter. What's important is that we learn the spirit contained in this story. As sword cultivators, we should always have an indomitable fighting spirit and not fear the strength of our enemies."

His spirited appearance once again made Chen Runyu's eyes misty.

Senior Brother is truly handsome.

Gu Youyou: "..."

Girl, don't be fooled!

When it comes to pretending, Zhang Chi is the best.

He may seem righteous on the surface, but in reality, if he encounters a formidable enemy, he will quickly run away.

All that talk about an indomitable fighting spirit is just a bluff.

Seeing Chen Runyu's misty eyes, Zhang Chi felt that he couldn't continue to deceive her, so he quickly said seriously, "Actually, I didn't just happen to pass by. I intentionally came to find you."

"Ah?"

Chen Runyu was stunned for a moment when she heard this, and then her heart started beating faster.

What does this mean?

Could it be that after breaking free from his restraints, Senior Brother intends to face his true feelings?

Although she had imagined countless times what it would be like to date Zhang Chi, imagination was one thing, but when the pie actually fell on her head, she couldn't help but feel dizzy and find it hard to believe.

"Senior Brother, what do you want to talk to me about?"

"I'm about to go down the mountain for training."

"Huh?"

He actually came to say goodbye?

Realizing what was about to happen, Chen Runyu's mood visibly plummeted.

"So I wanted to ask you, would you like to go down the mountain with me?"

"Eh!?"

Chen Runyu didn't expect that it would turn out like this.

She was shocked and couldn't believe it.

Her senior brother was inviting her to go out and experience the world, to travel and wander?

This was something she couldn't even imagine!

Because disciples of the Sword Sect were not allowed to leave the mountain if their cultivation level was not up to standard.

But this fantastical thing was actually happening.

Going down the mountain to gain experience, wouldn't that lead to many exciting and enjoyable things?

Perhaps, their relationship would go through a series of trials and then be elevated, leading to a carefree life from then on.

Just thinking about it made her excited.

By doing this, her senior brother was essentially revealing his feelings, right?

Otherwise, why wouldn't he invite someone else and insist on inviting her?

The more Chen Runyu thought about it, the more she felt that this line of thinking was correct, and a shy blush appeared on her face.

"Do you want to?"

"Of course I do!"

Just by inviting her to go down the mountain, Chen Runyu was excited as if she were getting married.

"Then I'll inconvenience you, let's go to the Elder's place later!"

"Huh?"

Why was it an inconvenience? Was she too excited and missed something?

Oh well, it doesn't matter.

As long as she could go out with her senior brother.

After that, she began to think about what preparations she should make for the journey and how to handle danger if they encountered it.

She even started to imagine scenarios where they faced a powerful enemy, and she sacrificed her life to let Zhang Chi escape, leaving him in great pain and unwilling to part with her...

This scene was so heartbreaking and sad.

But the more she imagined, the more she couldn't stop.

Perhaps, this was what they called being in love!

After finishing their guiding work for the day, Zhang Chi led her to the Elder's place to get the seal.

After receiving the documents, Chen Runyu realized that she was accompanying Zhang Chi down the mountain as a follower. No wonder Zhang Chi said she was inconvenienced.

She thought it was a big deal!

Wasn't it just being a follower?

"Senior brother, don't worry, I will take good care of you."

As long as she could go down the mountain with her senior brother, even if she became a follower or a servant disciple, it didn't matter.

"By the way, when you go down the mountain, it's best to bring Xiao Zi with you. Without your protection, she has no one to speak up for her when she's being bullied in the Sword Sect."

"That's right, senior brother, you've thought of everything."

This was a must.

Talisman Treasure Sect was quite far from the Sword Sect. If Zi Mian took the opportunity to escape the control of the slave mark, wouldn't it all be in vain?

So Zi Mian had to come along.

Coincidentally, taking Chen Runyu with them would also be a way to make up for the debt he owed her before.

For self-preservation, Zhang Chi had tricked her and put her in danger, so this time, he would help her in passing.

If his prediction was correct, once he left the Sword Sect, Jiang Qingyun would take action. He didn't know how much damage she would cause, but anyway, he would leave first and take his number one fan with him.

As for the other people in the Sword Sect, Zhang Chi had no intention of dealing with them.

Respecting the fate of others, letting go of the urge to help.

I'll slip away first, you guys do as you please...

I took some medicine this morning and felt a bit uncomfortable, so I'll continue writing the rest of the update in the afternoon.
