Chapter 618: Chapter 618 Departure 4

In that life, she didn’t know, so before she left, she didn’t bid farewell to her master, the Taoist priest.

Reliving this life, she felt that both morally and emotionally, she should bid farewell to her master, the Taoist priest before setting off.

Having said that, she had already started to walk up the mountain.

Soon, she arrived in front of the temple on the mountain.

The little Taoist cleaning the front door saw her and joyously rushed over, grabbing her hand.

“Senior sister, you’re back? That’s wonderful! Master will definitely be very happy when he knows you’re back!”

Mu Lingyun usually disliked the touch of strangers, but this little Taoist was truly adorable and looked very familiar.

Therefore, she didn’t shrug him off but let him lead her inside.

Quickly, the little Taoist had pulled her to the entrance of a small hall in the backyard while excitedly shouting, “Master! Master! Senior sister is back!”

As soon as the little Taoist’s words fell, an elder with an immortal’s temperament, white hair, and a white beard appeared at the doorway of the hall.

“You’re back?” the elder asked Mu Lingyun, speaking faintly.

“Come for a farewell!” Mu Lingyun said with a light smile, “The reason Mu Yi wants me to go back is actually to send me to Wangji as a hostage. I’m leaving today.”

The elder met her announcement with an unsurprised expression, “Nothing comes without a purpose, that fits his character! I’ve already heard about your ordeal. I didn’t expect Su Mingzhu to be so bold! Did you fall off the cliff? Were you seriously injured?”

Mu Lingyun smiled, “I’m fine. It doesn’t matter anymore. After all, Su Mingzhu has already received her deserved fate.”

The elder nodded, then said, “Come with me.”

After he had spoken, he turned and walked away.

Mu Lingyun heard him, and was about to follow, but she realized her hand was still being held.

She looked down and saw the little Taoist still holding her hand, looking up at her with big, watery eyes.

“Senior sister, you just got back and you’re leaving again?” the little Taoist asked.

Mu Lingyun couldn’t help but smile and reached out to touch the little Taoist’s head.

This little friend, mere five or six years old, was incredibly cute and delicate.

He was truly adorable.

“Senior sister will still come back in the future!” Mu Lingyun said softly.

The little Taoist pouted, seemingly unsatisfied with that answer.

Mu Lingyun remembered that she had bought a pack of candy when she went out to replenish her supplies the previous day.

So she took out the candy and gave it to the little boy, “Here, have some candy. Senior sister promises, I’ll be back soon.”

The little Taoist took the candy, picked one seriously, and started eating.

In an instant, his face broke into a broad smile.

–

After pacifying the little Taoist, Mu Lingyun walked in the direction the elder had left.

She reached the outer room of the elder’s quarter and saw him sitting by the windowsill, with a box placed in front of him.

She recognized that box.

It was the Token meant to mobilize the former subordinates of her late mother.

She was somewhat surprised, could it be that the elder intended to give her this object in advance?

The Taoist saw Mu Lingyun standing there, lost in thought, and pointed to a cushion opposite him, speaking softly, “Sit down!”

Mu Lingyun listened, indeed walked over, and sat down.

The elder directly slid the box to her and said, “Open this, take a look inside.”

Mu Lingyun did as instructed and indeed saw an exquisite dagger, embedded with gems, quietly lying inside.

She took out the dagger, drew it out, and looked it over.

Indeed, it was the Token.

It was also a dagger so sharp it could sever a hair blown across it.

“This dagger was left for you by your late mother!” the elder stated faintly, “If you ever get a chance to go to the Luo River, take this dagger to the manor lord of Luoyang Manor, there are still things your late mother left for you there. Remember this?”
