Long Road to Stardom

Is Chapter 205 wrong?

"No...no...I'm going to find Brother Lu now..." Wen Banyan said suddenly with some excitement.

Then he calmed down, loosened his clenched hands, placed them in front of Wen Zishu and said, "Zishu, look at this, this is Brother Lu's jade token, if he hadn't been in trouble, how could it be broken?"

"Zishu, can you please trust me for once and take me out to find Brother Lu?"

"This... This is impossible..."

"Sister, please don't just take a broken jade token and say it belongs to Brother Lu. Can you please stop doing that?"

Wen Zishu immediately denied it and made an excuse for himself.

"Zishu, do you still remember that Brother Lu was seriously injured in order to save the two of us?"

"I was very scared at that time, so I secretly took a drop of his blood when he was injured and made this jade token, just so I could know his condition at any time."

"But...it's broken now...Zishu." After saying this, Wen Banyan covered her face and burst into tears.

After hearing this, Wen Zishu's body shook, and he took two steps back unconsciously, muttering, "I...I don't believe it..."

"I'll go find him now. Brother Lu must still be alive." Wen Zishu said and ran out, and Wen Banyan quickly followed him.

Lin Xing had already returned to Dan City and stayed in the rented cave for the whole day. He still couldn't figure out how to face the Wen siblings.

Thinking of what Lu Qing said before he died, she felt a little troubled. Banyan didn't want to see her at all. She could only start with Wen Zishu and ask Wen Zishu to pass this thing to his sister.

As for the fact that Lu Qing was no longer around, she decided to keep it a secret. As for what excuse she would use to give the things to Zishu, she didn't know what Lu Qing had put inside.

"Oh..." Lin Xing sighed slightly.

After thinking about it, I decided to wait until the Alchemist Conference is over.

Lin Xing, who had already walked to the door of the Wen family, was ready to return to the rented cave.

At this time, she saw Wen Zishu running out of the house in a hurry without noticing her presence.

"What happened?"

After a while, Banyan was seen coming out of the mansion and chasing in the direction of Wen Zishu.

Lin Xing was a little worried and quickly followed.

But the place they came to was the place Lu Qing had brought her to before.

After waiting for a while, she saw two people walking out in a daze, and she didn't even notice them when she was standing in front of them.

Lin Xing couldn't help himself in the end, so he grabbed them both and asked, "Zishu, Banyan, what a coincidence, I can meet you here."

It was only then that Wen Zishu noticed Lin Xing's presence, while Wen Banyan shook off Lin Xing's hand and walked forward without even looking at him.

Lin Xing was not angry, and asked Wen Zishu, "Zishu, you all look a little unhappy, what happened?"

Wen Zishu was silent for a long time before he spoke, "Sister Su Qing, something happened to Brother Lu..."

After saying this, he couldn't continue and looked dazed.

"How do you know?"

Lin Xing was somewhat shocked when he heard what Wen Zishu said.

Wen Zishu also reacted to Lin Xing's words and asked hurriedly, "Sister Su Qing, what do you mean by this? Do you know something?"

After hearing this, Wen Banyan stopped walking forward.

Lin Xing knew that he had said something wrong, so he just spoke out, but this was obviously not the place to talk.

The three of them returned to the place where Lu Qing had been hiding before. As for why Zi Shu and the others had the token to open Lu Qing's hiding place, she didn't want to ask.

After finding a seat to sit down, Lin Xing glanced at the two of them and began to tell the story of Lu Qing asking her to represent the Wen family in the Alchemist Conference.

Speaking of Lu Qing's death because of her, although she didn't need it, it was the fact and Lin Xing did not hide it.

Wen Zishu knew that this was not Sister Su Qing’s fault. The cave sounded extremely dangerous, but how did Sister Su Qing survive?

Wen Banyan looked at Lin Xing with eyes that seemed to be filled with poison.

Lin Xing didn't care. Although she didn't know why Banyan became like this, if she attacked her, she would definitely not show mercy.

Later, when they talked about how Lu Qing's body was taken away by someone else and his cultivation level had directly reached the late Nascent Soul stage, both of them fell silent.

This made the two even more confused as to how Su Qing had survived.

Lin Xing naturally knew what they were thinking, and he immediately displayed his late Nascent Soul stage great perfection, which made Wen Banyan, who was sitting next to him, angry and asked, "Su Qing, did you deliberately approach us from the beginning and play us around for fun?"

"Why do you still need Lu Qing to protect you even though you have this level of cultivation? Why. Why. Why..."

"You could have protected him."

Lin Xing was silent. Was she going to say that it was Lu Qing's own fault? But if she had let Lu Qing know her true cultivation level from the beginning, perhaps everything would have been different. Lu Qing would not have to worry about her and would not have to help her block the attack.

"Is it really her fault?" Lin Xing was a little confused for a moment.

On second thought, what was she wrong? The person who was trying to take over another body had been planning for so long and finally found a body that was compatible with him and could be taken over. Naturally, he would not give up because of her. When he escaped, he didn't look like he was afraid of her. Instead, it seemed like he was afraid that people would know that he had escaped, so he left immediately.

In the end, Lin Xing said nothing, took out the things that Lu Qing asked her to give to Wen Banyan, and then left without looking back.

Back in the rented cave, Lin Xing lay on the bed, staring up, wondering what he was thinking.

Zhizhi saw that his master had been a little unhappy since he came back from fighting, so he came to the bed and comforted him, "Master, you really don't have to blame yourself for this. If you didn't hide your cultivation level, they would be wary of you because of your high cultivation level, and you would actually die faster."

"If the blood demon hadn't discovered my existence and prevented me from leaving the spirit beast ring, I would have eaten it in one bite."

After hearing this, Lin Xing picked up Zhizhi and asked in surprise, "Blood Demon? Zhizhi, do you know that thing?"

"Yeah, it just popped up in my memory."

"This 'blood demon' is very powerful. It can be resurrected by any bit of blood. It is extremely difficult to destroy it, so it is basically sealed away."

"Master, you don't have to blame yourself at all. Anyone who enters the Blood Demon's sealed place will be possessed even if he comes out alive."

"They rely on this method of taking over other bodies, spreading news to attract monks to the sealed place, and then find the body that best suits them."

Zhizhi immediately told Lin Xing about the Blood Demon.

After hearing this, Lin Xing immediately asked back, "Zhizhi, then why am I okay?"

"I'm not sure about that. Maybe the master's bloodline is even higher than that of this blood demon!"

"If a blood demon attempts to seize the body of a person with a higher bloodline than his own, not only will he fail, but he will also become the nutrient for that person to increase the power of his bloodline."

"Squeak, are you kidding me? I don't have any bloodline."

"Master, I'm not sure about that. Anyway, that's what I remember."
