System: After the fortune telling, my cultivation level skyrocketed.

Hearing Wang Ye's teasing remark, Zhang Lingyu, with her cold expression, simply ignored it.

Seeing the struggle in Jiang Linglong's eyes, Lu Xueqi also made a sword-finger gesture and pointed it at Jiang Linglong's brow, then softly uttered, "Break."

Jiang Linglong was already a frightened bird. The moment the seal was removed, he instinctively retreated. "I will never forget this kindness. I will repay it when I have mastered the Dao!"

After saying that, Jiang Linglong hurriedly returned the way he came.

After quickly turning around several alleys and realizing that the three people hadn't followed, he dared to take out his newly bought Huawei phone to call Wang Wenjing.

When Wang Wenjing was buying a phone, she simply wrote down the order form for the salesperson and read her number aloud once, and Jiang Linglong silently memorized it.

"Linglong, where are you?"

"I...I'm fine. Has Master returned?" Jiang Linglong was afraid that her master would worry if he knew. "Don't tell Master about this yet, I'm afraid he'll worry."

Wang Wenjing hesitated for a moment and said, "Come back first, I'll wait for you where the car is parked."

"Okay, I'll be there soon."

After hanging up the phone, Jiang Linglong felt like she had escaped a disaster, and at the same time, she was extremely grateful to the three complete strangers who had come to her rescue.

About four or five minutes later.

As Jiang Linglong returned to the parking lot of the shopping mall, he saw Wang Wenjing anxiously waiting for him from a distance.

"What's going on? What happened?"

Wang Wenjing breathed a sigh of relief when she saw Jiang Linglong return safely and began to ask him questions.

Jiang Linglong immediately asked her master, Chen Xuan, if he knew about this.

Wang Wenjing did not answer and gestured for Jiang Linglong to get in the car first.

After opening the car door, Jiang Linglong immediately didn't dare to breathe.

"Master, I just slipped away by myself, and I got so engrossed in playing that I forgot about the time."

Jiang Linglong lowered her head like a little girl who had done something wrong, her hands clutching the hem of her clothes as she awkwardly fabricated lies in an attempt to get away with it.

"Come on up." Chen Xuan smiled and shook his head as he looked at his disciple, whose clothes had been completely transformed.

As Jiang Linglong got into the car, it slowly drove towards Tangwu Mountain.

"Now you know how dangerous it is to enter the world, right? The reason I didn't take action this time wasn't just to give you a chance to experience it; there were other reasons as well."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Linglong blushed and lowered her head, stammering, "So Master already knew?"

"You little rascal, do you think your make-up lie can fool your master?" Seeing Jiang Linglong becoming increasingly remorseful, Chen Xuan reached out and rubbed her head. "Don't worry, this isn't over. Tonight, your master will get justice for you."

Seeing that her master did not blame her, Jiang Linglong dared to tell him what had happened.

"Sister Chen went to the restroom, and I was playing on my phone on the chair by the door. As I was playing, I suddenly realized that there was no sound around me. When I looked up, I saw that everything was foggy. My intuition told me that there was danger, so I ran quickly. But before I could get out of the fog, someone pointed at my forehead and then I uncontrollably followed him away."

Wang Wenjing turned pale upon hearing this, "Then how did you escape from that person?"

Jiang Linglong said, "I was already in despair, thinking I would never see my master again, but I didn't expect to meet three people when I was about to leave the alley. Two men and one woman, one with a demon-revealing mirror, one with a jujube wood sword, and an older sister with a whisk."

Jiang Linglong recalled her first impression of the three magical artifacts: "I was terrified when I saw them. I thought I was doomed. I couldn't even handle one, let alone four?"

"Unexpectedly, one of the three Taoist brothers pulled me out of the magic circle as he passed by."

Jiang Linglong's vivid and engaging storytelling made Wang Wenjing feel a chill run down her spine, unable to imagine whether she could have remained calm in that situation.
