Chapter 377 Is She Lin Wan'er?
The next day, in front of the mountain gate of Shenlei Palace.
The morning light was just beginning to appear, dyeing the mountain gates into a golden red. The mountain wind swept past with the sound of pine waves, but it could not blow away the anxiety between Lin Wan'er's brows.
"What did you say? Brother Yun is not in the Divine Thunder Palace?"
Hearing the words of the Divine Thunder Palace disciples, Lin Wan'er was stunned.
She had not rested all night, her moon-white skirt was covered with dust, and her hair was messy and stuck to her sweaty forehead, but at this moment all her fatigue was washed away by the sudden news.
How could this be?
Why isn’t Brother Yun in the Divine Thunder Palace?
"Senior Brother Yun is definitely not here. If you want to see him, you should come back another day. If there's anything urgent... you can tell me. I can pass on the message when he returns."
The gatekeeper disciple looked at her, thought for a moment, and then spoke respectfully again.
After all, she is the Holy Maiden of Taixu Palace, and her status and position are not comparable to his, so naturally he dare not be presumptuous.
"There's no need to pass it on."
She took a deep breath and looked up at him: "I want to see Master Lei."
Yun Chen is not in the Shenlei Palace. He must have gone out for something. Although he did not contact Yun Chen, Lei Miaoyun can definitely contact Yun Chen.
Several days had passed since Master Yun Chen’s incident. She wasn’t sure whether Yun Chen knew the news, but she had to tell him in person.
By the way...I'd like to apologize to Yun Chen again.
If she hadn't given her father advice on the matter of the Gu family father and son, her father wouldn't have arrested the Gu family father and son. In that case... Yun Chen might have succeeded in his revenge.
At that time, she was only thinking about recruiting Yun Chen to join the sect for Taixu Palace, and didn't think too much about it.
No matter what, she must apologize to Yun Chen in person.
"The Sect Master is not in the sect either."
The gatekeeper disciple twitched his lips slightly and shook his head with an unnatural expression.
He was telling the truth, but his answer looked like a deliberate attempt to make things difficult.
After all... it is generally acknowledged that the Sect Master almost never leaves the sect except for major events. It is understandable what Yun Chen said, but it is really unacceptable that the Sect Master is not here.
Obviously, that's what Lin Wan'er thought.
"What do you mean? Is the threshold to enter the Divine Thunder Palace so high now? Even I am not qualified to enter?"
Lin Wan'er's face suddenly darkened.
Even though she was obedient to Yun Chen, she was the daughter of the Taoist leader after all, and her status was equivalent to that of the leader's first disciple. How could she be someone who was easy to talk to?
The gatekeeper's mouth twitched, and he looked at her with some embarrassment: "Senior Sister Lin, what I said is true, the master is really not here..."
Lin Wan'er's face darkened instantly, and her hands clenched quietly under her moon-white skirt.
"What a shame, he's not here." Lin Wan'er sneered, her spiritual power quietly circulating, and the hair on her temples rose slightly due to the fluctuation of her breath.
"Then I'll go in and look for it myself."
She thought of what Lei Miaoyun had said before in Taixu Palace, so she felt that Lei Miaoyun was deliberately preventing her from seeing Yun Chen.
The gatekeeper turned pale with fear and quickly took a half step back, waving his hands wildly: "Senior Sister Lin, don't act recklessly. Entering the sect without permission will result in...consequences..."
"What the hell are the consequences? I want to go in, get out of the way!"
Lin Wan'er shouted loudly and stepped forward to rush in.
At this moment, an old voice suddenly came from inside the mountain gate.
"You girl, you are becoming more and more unruly."
Lin Wan'er looked in the direction of the voice and saw a burly old man in a gray robe walking slowly towards her. It was Elder Lei from the Divine Thunder Palace.
She restrained her breath and saluted: "Uncle Lei."
Elder Lei waved his hand, signaling the gatekeepers to withdraw. He then looked at Lin Wan'er with a complicated expression, "Why did you suddenly come to the Divine Thunder Palace? What's wrong?"
"I came to find Yun Chen. I had something important to tell him, but... he said Yun Chen wasn't here. I asked to see Sect Leader Lei, but he actually said Sect Leader Lei wasn't here either..."
Lin Wan'er stamped her feet angrily and looked at Elder Lei in a coquettish manner.
"Could you please tell me the truth? Did he bully me?"
Elder Lei looked at Lin Wan'er's angry expression and shook his head helplessly. He reached out and brushed the dust off her shoulders. "That child is still so impatient. He didn't lie to you. Yun Chen and the Sect Leader are indeed not on the mountain."
Lin Wan'er was stunned. The anger in her eyes instantly faded, leaving only astonishment. "Are they really not here? Then where did they go?"
Elder Lei led her to the stone pavilion beside the mountain gate and sat down. He took out a celadon teacup from his arms, poured a cup of cold tea and handed it to her: "Drink some water first, and then talk slowly."
Lin Wan'er took the teacup, her fingertips cold. She took a sip of tea and suppressed her anxiety: "Where did Brother Yun go? Did something happen? Or..."
With Yun Chen's temper, it is impossible for him to be coerced, so she wondered if Yun Chen had run away on his own.
"You have something to ask him?" Elder Lei turned to look at her curiously.
Lin Wan'er pursed her lips and nodded, "It's important..."
Seeing that she didn't want to say more, Elder Lei didn't ask any more questions. After a pause, he sighed.
"He's off on a mission. Not many people know about this, but if you really need to find him urgently... you can go to Panlei City. I just contacted him yesterday."
"Pan Lei City?" Lin Wan'er frowned. "What is he going there for?"
Elder Lei shook his head, obviously unwilling to say more.
Although there was no need to hide this matter from Lin Wan'er, but... the fewer people who knew about it, the better.
After all, no one can guarantee whether there are traitors in Taixu Palace who are secretly communicating with Japan.
"I'll go find him right away."
Lin Wan'er was not interested in these things. Seeing that Elder Lei didn't say anything, she was too lazy to ask.
Now she just wants to find Yun Chen as soon as possible.
After saying that, she turned around and ran down the mountain.
Her moon-white skirt drew a light arc in the morning light, and her messy hair was blown by the mountain breeze, but it could not hide the determination in her eyes at all.
Looking at her back, Elder Lei shook his head secretly.
"It seems that what the Sect Leader said is true. Yun Chen... this kid is really lucky. But if he dares to do something wrong to that girl Ruoruo... then..."
"Who am I sorry for?" Just as Elder Lei was muttering to himself, a clear and pleasant voice suddenly sounded in his ears.
Elder Lei's body trembled, and he turned around suddenly, and saw Zhao Xiruo standing behind him with a smile on her face, her exquisite and beautiful face full of a calm smile.
“Huh…? No one!”
Elder Lei's heart tightened, and he quickly waved his hands, his eyes evading: "No... no one, I was just talking casually."
"is it?"
Zhao Xiruo stepped forward, tilted her head to look at him, a hint of a smile on her lips: "Who was that girl just now? What was she doing here? It seemed like she was looking for someone?"
Her voice was sweet, but her eyes were cunning, and she had obviously heard Elder Lei's words carefully.
Elder Lei coughed dryly twice, scratched his head, and tried to change the subject: "Girl, why are you here all of a sudden? Why are you coming to the mountain gate instead of cultivating properly in the mountains?"
"Don't change the subject. Tell me... who that girl is? If you don't explain clearly, then I will... tell Master that she's not here and you're bullying me."
Elder Lei was choked by Zhao Xiruo's words and quickly waved his hands to beg for mercy: "No, no, no, my little ancestor, please don't complain to your master!"
Zhao Xiruo is now the treasure of the entire sect. Not to mention telling Lei Miaoyun, even if other elders knew about it, they would have to cause trouble for him.
He looked at the cunning look in the girl's eyes and knew he couldn't hide from the truth. He sighed and said truthfully, "That was Lin Wan'er from Taixu Palace, looking for that boy Yun Chen."
"what?"
Zhao Xiruo raised her eyebrows slightly: "She is Lin Wan'er?"
