After being read by the mind, my apprentice wanted to rebel

Chapter 238 Heading to Maple Forest Town

Lin Xian'er knew in her heart that she had unconsciously harbored some conspiracy theories and prejudices about Tianzong since she entered the passage, but as the saying goes, it's better to be safe than sorry, and it never hurts to be more vigilant.

[Host, no matter what the situation is, we are going to visit Tianzong anyway. This way, wouldn't it be a legitimate and fair reason?]

After hearing this, Lin Xian'er just raised the corners of her mouth slightly, revealing a slightly bitter smile, but in the end she did not respond, because she was tired.

After staying in silence for a while, several people set out on the journey back to Xu's house.

After returning to the Xu family, Lin Xian'er didn't even take a moment to rest, and hurried to look for Xie Qijun.

When she saw Xie Qijun, she took a deep breath, calmed herself down, and then told him that Tianzong was about to recruit disciples.

"Master, are you planning to go to Tianzong?" Xie Qijun asked Lin Xian'er calmly.

Hearing her apprentice's question, Lin Xian'er was slightly stunned at first, a hint of subtle hesitation and struggle flashed in her eyes, but she quickly regained her composure and nodded gently in response, "Well... well, let's set off the day after tomorrow."

In fact, Lin Xian'er knew in her heart that she was actually full of resistance and rejection towards this trip to Tianzong.

For some reason, she always had a bad premonition lingering in her mind, making her feel as if this was a journey of walking into a trap and seeking death.

Seeing his master's hesitation for a moment and his forced calmness at this moment, Xie Qijun felt a pang of heartache.

He slowly walked forward, gently stretched out his arms, and hugged Lin Xian'er tightly in his arms, gently comforting her, "Master, no matter what happens, I will always be by your side. Don't worry too much. Just do what you really want to do, and don't force yourself."

Since returning from Tianji Sect last time, Xie Qijun has been constantly concerned about his master's safety. His master is kindhearted and always treats others with compassion. Even in the face of danger and hardship, he will never easily abandon anyone in need.

Because of this, he had already secretly made up his mind that no matter what difficulties and obstacles, or even life-and-death tests, were waiting for them ahead, he would face them together with his master, never leave him, and never live alone.

The next morning, sunlight shone through the mottled leaves onto the ground, forming patches of golden light.

Lin Xian'er walked with light steps to where Xu Zhenxiong and Yan Xuan'er were.

Seeing Lin Xian'er coming, Xu Zhenxiong and Yan Xuan'er hurriedly stood up to greet her.

Before they could ask, Lin Xian'er said softly, "You two, I came here to say goodbye to you."

Hearing this, Xu Zhenxiong was slightly startled, then asked with concern, "Benefactor, I wonder where you are going?"

Lin Xian'er pursed her red lips and replied after a moment's hesitation, "I plan to go to Tianzong."

At this moment, Yan Xuan'er's eyes flashed with surprise, and she asked, "Benefactor, are you also going after the inner disciples of Tianzong?"

Lin Xian'er smiled slightly, shook her head, and said, "That's not entirely true. I just want to see what's so special about this sect that's known as the largest in the Spiritual Land."

Lin Xian'er is not willing to easily reveal her true thoughts in front of outsiders.

Yan Xuan'er seemed to see that Lin Xian'er was hiding something, but she did not continue to ask. Instead, she nodded to show her understanding.

Then, she smiled and said to Lin Xian'er, "My benefactor, it's a coincidence that we discussed it yesterday after receiving the news. Xi'er will also go to Tianzong to test his skills. If he is lucky enough to become a disciple of Tianzong, we as parents can rest assured. Since you are also going to Tianzong, why not go with Xi'er so that you can look after each other on the road."

As she spoke, she looked at Lin Xian'er expectantly, waiting for her reply.

"That's great. But there's one thing I need to make clear to you in advance. If your son goes with us, I'm afraid the danger he faces will be doubled. This trip to Tianzong will be an extremely dangerous journey for me and my disciples," Lin Xian'er said solemnly. She hoped to give the father and son the right to make their own choices.

Even though they had previously made their stance clear and expressed their willingness to stand by her side, she felt there was no need to involve them in such a huge risk.

After hearing this, Xu Zhenxiong was silent for a moment, then replied firmly, "Benefactor, in this vast world of immortal cultivation, every step is filled with unknown adventures and challenges. Since Xi'er is fortunate enough to receive your support, we are extremely relieved to leave him in your hands. If he ultimately encounters misfortune and dies, perhaps it can only be said that it is his destiny. As the future head of the Xu family, if he can't even endure such a small hardship, then he is unworthy of this important responsibility."

At this point, Xu Zhenxiong couldn't help but sigh slightly, his eyes revealing his deep love for his son.

Seeing Xu Zhenxiong's firm attitude, Lin Xian'er nodded and replied, "Okay, if that's the case, then it's settled. We'll set off on time tomorrow morning."

After she finished speaking, she bowed to Xu Zhenxiong and left.

After Lin Xian'er left, Yan Xuan'er hurriedly called Xu Jiaxi over. Looking at her son, who had just returned home but was about to go on a long journey, she was filled with reluctance and worry.

However, she knew very well that this opportunity was of great significance to Xu Jiaxi's growth. Even though she felt extremely reluctant, she understood that she must not become a stumbling block on her child's path forward.

The next morning, Lin Xian'er and the other three said goodbye to the Xu family and then set out on their journey again without stopping.

Although Xie Qijun was extremely reluctant in his heart, he really didn't like outsiders intruding on his wonderful time alone with his master, but he could only remain silent as he could not disobey his master's orders.

When Lin Xian'er and the other two arrived at Fenglin Town, the town was already bustling with all kinds of cultivators.

They were wary of each other, as if facing a great enemy, like a group of hungry wolves, spying on each other in secret.

However, due to the limited number of people that the spacecraft could carry, Lin Xian'er and the other two could only set off at noon the next day.

In desperation, the three of them had to find an inn to rest for a while.

In the lobby of the inn, Lin Xian'er had just completed the check-in procedures when a group of people suddenly rushed in from outside the door.

She couldn't help but raise her eyebrows and sighed inwardly, "What a fate! I can unexpectedly meet them under such circumstances."
