Chapter 62: Indulging in Carnal Desire Chapter 62 \nAfter suddenly making direct eye contact with someone, Chu Jiao felt like a child who was caught in the act of sneaking a look and she hurriedly shifted her gaze, but after a while, she couldnât help but shift her gaze back again.\nHe was obviously just a stranger whom she hadnât met before yet why did Chu Jiao feel a faint sense of familiarity.
Her mind turned and she thought to herself, she hadnât done anything shameful so why should she be afraid of looking at him in the eye? Soon, she found herself looking towards the same person again.
At this moment, the Buddhist cultivator in question had resumed the appearance of lowering his head and closing his eyes so Chu Jiao took this opportunity to measure him.
Without a doubt, the man had a very ordinary appearance. It was so ordinary once you looked away, you would easily forget his countenance. He appeared to be unimportant to the group, standing at the edge and completely unable to blend in the group. However, he didnât appear to care for it as he continued standing silently in his place for a long time, turning his beads. His mien clear and profound.
Chu Jiao measured him for quite a long time, to the extent that his other fellow cultivators could sense it and they suspiciously cast her a look, however, Chu Jiao didnât retract her gaze in shame despite this. Instead the novice Buddhist monksâ white faces flushed red. They quickly chanted âAmitabha Buddhaâ under their breath and quickly shifted their eyes away.
Chu Jiao wanted to laugh, finally diverting her attention away. Perhaps the Buddhist cultivator remind her of someone she had met before? She didnât care too much anymore and straightforwardly continued to observe the surrounding people.\nMaster had mentioned back then that if she wanted to meet him earlier, she should come to the Sendai Refining Meetup. Now that she had arrived, where was master?
Her gaze surveyed the area twice but she still couldnât find any traces of him.
Chu Jiao knit her brows, her pretty face was tinged with evident gloom and unhappiness.
On the other hand, when the Buddhist cultivator felt the gaze on him finally leave, his pupils opened up slightly. At a place nobody could see, he revealed a faint smile.
After a long while, the remaining sects have finally arrived at Sendai.
The leaders of each sect gathered in the center of Sendai and placed the 10 restriction tokens together. Immediately, the sky glowed brightly followed by a strong breeze that blew and a coiling spatial vortex appeared in the originally empty Sendai platform at once. This was the entrance to the rumored secret territory!\nEach leader of the sect assembled the disciples of their sect and waited until the secret territory opened. Everyone then used martial arts to fly into the vortex like an arrow leaving its bow.
Chu Jiao majored in cultivating the path of the sword so her martial abilities werenât on par with the people who cultivated their bodies. Naturally, she didnât worry about this because she had no desire for the treasures in the secret territory, so she jumped in with a light heart. She was even happy to do it after everyone else had already jumped in, not taking the slightest opportunity to be ahead in time.
After passing through the monstrous and multicolored vortex, Chu Jiao landed on an empty patch of grass.
She lifted her sword warily in defense and looked around. After confirming that there was no presence of enemies or beasts that threatened her life, she gradually calmed down.
In reality, she had already made a conjecture that there wouldnât be anyone who would want to move together as a group in this secret territory. Moreover the vortex made sure to separate everybody, sending them to different corners in the secret territory. Hence, they could only depend on their luck to meet each other and decide whether they would be friends or foes.
Opening the spirit beast bag on her waist, Chu Jiao released Chang Le who had been stuffily waiting inside for a long time.
\nChang Le clasped the sword tassel and took a whiff. It let out a âChichiâ sound before standing up and taking in the surroundings before running towards the southeast direction.
Chu Jiao was originally uncertain about using a ferret as a police dog but she had no other options, it was a lot better than mindlessly running around the entire forest.
The ferret was small and petite, its figure incredibly nimble. It scuttled left and right in the forest so Chu Jiao could only follow it from a far distance while pushing away branches and killing low level insect beasts that popped out in her path. It wasnât too difficult at the start.
âChang Le, slow down!â After running for nearly two hours, even though Chu Jiao was not fatigued, she kept her guard up against possible raid attacks by monsters or spiritual plants and was now gasping for breath.
âChichi, chichi!â
The little ferret looked back at its little owner and spoke in an urgent tone before running ahead once again.
Chu Jiao was helpless and could only continue following it.
After passing through the lush shrubbery with difficulty, Chu Jiao halted in her heels, because there ahead stood two people on vacant land with a dazed looking ferret in front of them.
