The leader of the cultivation alliance has a crush on me.

There was no sound outside. Song Ke sat there wearily when she suddenly heard Feng Xun speak: "Are you injured?"

Song Ke smiled and waved her hand. She was not injured at all, but Feng Xun was seriously injured by Qi Feng before.

She went over and looked at him a few times, then asked, "Are you alright?"

Feng Xun's eyes were deep and his expression was cold: "What do I need?"

After speaking, Feng Xun's gaze fell on Song Ke, scrutinizing her attire. After a moment's thought, he said, "You look somewhat familiar."

Song Ke chuckled: "Didn't you say you're heartless? How can you say something like that?"

Feng Xun looked puzzled after hearing this, but didn't show much other expression. Song Ke asked him, "Shall we hide here a little longer, and go out after they leave?"

Feng Xun said, "Are you afraid of that person just now?"

"He looks really annoying."

Hearing Feng Xun say this, Song Ke was surprised: "So you do know how to be annoying?"

"But that person doesn't look like a good person. You became like this because of him."

Feng Xun listened and said in a completely calm tone, "I'll kill him once we get out of here."

Song Ke looked at him with even greater surprise: "You want to kill someone?"

After saying that, he added, "Let's not talk about it. You can't even beat them now. Let's focus on healing your injuries first."

Feng Xun's lips twitched, as if he wanted to say something but didn't. After a while, he watched Song Ke get up, his gaze fixed on her indifferently, without uttering a word.

Song Ke only remembered to turn back and say after reaching the exit, "Stay here and don't move around."

It's not most suitable for her to go out and gather information, since no one else can see her.

Besides, after hiding here for so long, even if Feng Xun doesn't need to eat, her mortal body and lack of cultivation make her unable to withstand hunger, and she's already feeling weak in the legs and arms.

She glanced outside and then reminded him again, "Don't come out."

Feng Xun paused for a moment, then looked at Song Ke and asked, "Where are you going?"

Song Ke looked at him and said, "I'll go check what's going on outside. My... parents are still out there, and I don't know how they are."

After saying that, as if afraid that Feng Xun might cause trouble, he assured him, "I'll be back soon."

After Feng Xun finished speaking, he saw Song Ke disappear into the night. He frowned, and felt a tremor in his heart, as if it were being rippled by a spring breeze. He thought it was because he was too badly injured, and he couldn't help but cough twice.

Song Ke went out and headed towards the square, familiar with the route. Before she even arrived, she heard two of Luo You Alliance's subordinates talking.

"The territory of this Suspended Palace is much better than our Luoyou Alliance. No wonder the Alliance Leader is so eager to occupy and rule it."

"I must say, the spiritual energy here is much richer than in other places. In such a blessed land, it's no wonder that Nan Fengxun's cultivation has always been the number one in the cultivation world."

"Hey, do you think what Sect Master Song said before was true? Feng Xun is preparing to break through to the Nascent Soul stage. If he really breaks through, who in this world can be his opponent?"

"Who knows? Maybe it's just the people from the Cultivation Alliance bluffing. He was defeated in the last battle against our Alliance Leader. I heard that he didn't even fight this time. He ran away in fear when he saw our Alliance Leader. People outside all praise the Cultivation Alliance Leader, the Palace Master of Xuanshang Palace, Feng Xun, as benevolent and righteous, a reincarnated Bodhisattva. I think he's just a coward who's afraid of death."

No sooner had he finished speaking than the man suddenly covered his face in a fit of rage and shouted, "Who, who's got a death wish? Come out here, or I'll skin you alive! Who, come out here!"

Those around him, seeing his sudden outburst, cautiously glanced around but saw nothing. He asked, bewildered, "What's wrong? Why are you getting so angry?"

The man said warily, "Someone just attacked me, and they attacked my face."

Song Ke held a small stone in her hand, stood behind a tree and watched, then threw another one, which hit the person's knee, causing him to kneel down instantly.

This time the cursing was even fiercer: "Damn it, which bastard is it? What kind of hero hides his head and tail like that? Come out if you dare!"

"What's wrong with you?" The person still couldn't see anyone and asked the person who had suddenly knelt down with a puzzled look.

The man looked bewildered and innocent, saying, "How would I know? There are definitely people around here. This so-called spiritually rich Cloud Immortal Land seems very strange to me."

"Hurry up and go."

After watching the two leave, Song Ke dropped the stone in his hand. He ran to the square, only to find that there was no one there anymore. He looked at the ground, which seemed to have been washed clean, spotless.

She walked inside and suddenly encountered two maids delivering food. She followed them and saw them enter a courtyard. Song Ke looked up at the words on the door and realized that this was Rong Ling's residence.

She followed behind, and sure enough, before she got close, she first heard a sudden "bang"—the sound of porcelain shards shattering—and then Rong Ling's familiar cursing voice: "I won't eat! I'm telling you, don't think that just because you occupy this place you're the masters of the Suspended Palace. My master will come to punish you sooner or later."

"Get out of here, all of you! I won't eat anything you bring me."

Originally, he was a cultivator with some cultivation level who had already abstained from grains, so whether he ate or not was not very meaningful. He didn't know when the people of the Luoyou Alliance became so kind as to send food to prisoners.

Song Ke watched as the two maids left with helpless expressions. Only then did she carefully slip along the side and go around to the back window on the other side. She knocked on the window and heard a movement inside, followed by an unusually quiet silence. Then she realized that the sound was coming from the window. She gripped her sword tightly in her hand with a wary expression. Her spiritual power was sealed, so even with the sword in hand, she could only use a few ordinary moves.

He walked to the window, first pointing his sword at it, then cautiously asked, "Who is it?"

Song Ke knocked on the window twice more. Rong Ling was stunned for a moment, then quickly used her sword to knock the window open. She saw only the chilly autumn wind outside, and no one was there. Combined with the night, it was already somewhat eerie. But then the autumn wind blew in again, making the window creak, making it seem more like a horror movie on TV.

Rong Ling is stubborn and outspoken, and usually fearless with a dauntless expression, but he is terrified of ghosts, especially in situations involving ghosts and spirits.

Rong Ling swallowed nervously, then mustered her courage and asked in a very low voice, "Who...who's outside?"

The only response he received was another creak from the window, which startled Rong Ling so much that he jumped onto his bed without even closing the window, then pulled the blanket over himself.

Song Ke was completely bewildered by his actions; she had forgotten that Rong Ling was the person in Xuanshang Palace most afraid of ghosts.

Sin!

You used the wrong method.
