If it were just like this, Shen Ao could still endure it for a while.
But he found that since these Major Sect Cultivators arrived, Gao Wenxian had completely neglected him.
The frequency of communication rapidly declined, almost to the point of ignoring him.
How could prideful Shen Ao endure such a disparity?
"Senior Brother Shen, weâre not welcome here, we should leave as soon as possible!" Jin Tingfeng directly approached Shen Ao, expressing his thoughts.
He feels as if each day has been a year.
All around him were Major Sect Members who could crush him with one hand, and they didnât really care about him at all.
This greatly damaged his confidence and left him feeling insecure.
"Indeed, these so-called Major Sect Cultivators are all overly self-important.
One could think theyâre all destined to form Golden Cores someday." Lu Ziyun couldnât stand it either, speaking sharply with a mocking tone.
Nearby, Lou Yi remained silent, as he had long wanted to leave.
Itâs an eternal truth that if circles are different, one shouldnât forcefully integrate.
Naturally, he hadnât been idle during this time and went out to search for Lin Xuanâs squadâs whereabouts.
Unfortunately, he didnât find them; perhaps they hadnât arrived at Fangsu District yet.
Worried about Xin Ziqiâs safety, he temporarily stayed behind.
Of course, it would be better to leave sooner.
Shen Ao was silent for a moment, then nodded and went to find Gao Wenxian to bid farewell.
"Brother Shen, youâre leaving so soon? Is it because Iâve neglected you?" Gao Wenxianâs expression changed upon hearing this, and he urged him to stay,
"Iâve been really busy these past few days, catching up with many friends I havenât seen in years, so maybe Iâve neglected Brother Shen unintentionally.
The main reason is that I feel thereâs no need for formality between Brother Shen and me.
Unlike others, our relationship is not as close, which is why I need to spend more time to build alliances."
"True Monarchâs Paradise will open in a few months, and I naturally need to recruit more allies.
Our Two Forms Sect has many enemies, and if weâre not prepared, we might be eliminated before entering Paradise."
Gao Wenxian was sincere as he explained to Shen Ao the reason for his recent âneglect.â
This made Shen Ao hesitate.
"Brother Shen, you may see us as coming from so-called Major Sects, but none of us specialize in Body Cultivating techniques." Gao Wenxian sighed,
"If you leave, what should we do when we encounter those baldies from Jin Gang Sect?
If theyâre close, it could be dangerous for us, and thereâs even a chance our group could be wiped out."
Gao Wenxianâs meaning was clear; he needed Shen Aoâs assistance.
Otherwise, itâs likely they would fall behind in future encounters with enemies.
These words made Shen Ao feel comfortable, as his vanity was greatly satisfied.
So what if you are disciples of Major Sects? You still rely on me, a cultivator from the wilderness.
Gao Wenxian continued to appeal to emotions, finally convincing Shen Ao to agree to stay.
"What, weâre not leaving now?" Lou Yi was utterly speechless upon hearing this.
He had been planning to leave with Xin Ziqi.
But since Shen Ao decided not to leave, Lu Ziyun, another Female Cultivator from Qingluan Palace, was unwilling to leave.
She was Xin Ziqiâs senior sister, which made it impossible for Xin Ziqi to leave.
Since he couldnât find Lin Xuanâs squad for the time being, and his divination talent didnât reveal any news from Sect Members, Lou Yi decided to stay temporarily.
Fortunately, at this time, Shen Ao brought him some good news.
Another cultivator from True Blood Sect was about to arrive at Fangsu District.
He would bring Lou Yi something he neededâthe five-colored Lingzhi.
