Chapter 387 Returning to the Sect to Report
Faced with the questioning from his master, Linlang, Xun Kun felt a little embarrassed and coughed lightly, saying:

"Master, I will charter a flying boat and go directly to Haoran Sect. I should not get lost."

Venerable Linlang chuckled upon hearing this, wiped his hand on his storage bracelet, and took out a palm-sized bronze arrowhead, handing it to Xun Kun:
"Take this magic item; it will help you find your way and prevent you from getting lost again."

Xun Kun gave an awkward smile, accepted the treasure given to him by his master, and then got up to take his leave, though his back looked somewhat disheveled.

Venerable Linlang smiled helplessly. Her disciple was excellent in talent, comprehension, and cultivation speed. His only flaw was that he couldn't tell directions. Even inside the Kunmo Sect, Xunkun would get lost.

Previously, a disciple with ill intentions was jealous of Xun Kun's talent and deliberately led him into the forbidden area of ​​the Kunmo Sect, intending to use the formation of the forbidden area to harm him. Fortunately, she came out of seclusion at that time, saved Xun Kun, and took him in as her last disciple.

The disciple with impure intentions was also sealed of his memories and expelled from the sect. How could she let her disciple's weaknesses become public knowledge?
After that, whenever Xun Kun went out to train, he would choose to team up. As his cultivation improved and his spiritual sense grew, he gradually concealed this weakness over time.

The last time we went to explore the Baohua Mountain Secret Realm, it was Xun Kun who suggested it. He said that the secret realm is an independent little world, so there is no such thing as getting lost. Anyway, once you enter, you will be randomly teleported. When he meets a compatible cultivator, he will team up with him. If there is no suitable one, he will act alone. He will definitely not expose his weaknesses.

This also explains why Xun Kun initially teamed up with Xian Yao and Xian Xu from the Huaxian Sect, but ultimately chose to travel with Yun Chen, Han Lian, and Yun Xi after encountering them. His years of experience in teaming up allowed him to sense who would be most beneficial to him.

As it turned out, his choice was correct. The four of them worked together to eliminate the evil flower and prevent the giant monster in the secret realm from becoming corrupted. In a way, they indirectly saved all the cultivators who entered the secret realm and brought honor to the Kunmo Sect in the entire Weiyu Realm. Therefore, he attached great importance to Wei Yunxi's invitation to visit the Haoran Sect.

After making preparations, Xun Kun left the Kunmo Sect the next day and boarded a flying boat bound for the Haoran Sect in the Western Regions.

On the other side, Yunxi, after dealing with Xin Qiujian, sped up her return to the sect.

The latter half of the journey was relatively peaceful, and no one dared to attack her again. However, some cultivators were secretly following her, seemingly looking for an opportunity to strike. But these people's cultivation was not enough, and she didn't want to waste time. She simply sped up and left them behind, returning to the Haoran Sect in the shortest possible time.

The first thing Yunxi did after returning to the sect was to see her master, Yu Ling.

As Yu Ling was reviewing the new batch of jade slips sent by the "Honeycomb," the honeycomb jade pendant at his waist vibrated. After scanning it with his divine sense, he raised his voice:
"Let Yunxi in."

"Yes."

A moment later, Yunxi stood in front of her master.

Yu Ling put down the jade slip in her hand, glanced at Yun Xi, and said:

"This trip didn't go very well?"

"Yes, this disciple almost suffered a humiliating defeat this time."

Yunxi didn't feel ashamed at all. She sat down below Venerable Yuling and began to talk about her trip.

The familiar way of telling the story and the expression made Yu Ling feel as if he had instantly returned to the state when he was in seclusion breaking through to the Nascent Soul stage. Before and after each of Yun Xi's training trips, she would talk to him for a long time through the array, telling him about her training experiences and the new things in the sect, and she would only leave when she was satisfied.

After listening to Yunxi's story, Yu Ling simply frowned and said:
"The 'Honeycomb' has received the news of Kunyu City's lockdown, but it didn't expect the reason to be related to the Liu family."

I just received a new message saying that you killed three Nascent Soul True Monarchs on your way back to the sect, including the well-known bounty hunters 'Bao Jun Xun Yue' and his wife, and a demonic cultivator.

Upon hearing this, Yunxi almost choked on her own saliva and immediately waved her hand, saying, "Master, who is spreading lies? I am not so arrogant as to be arrogant. I admit that I did encounter these three people, but the only one I actually fought was Xin Qiujian, who claimed to be a disciple of the Kunmo Sect. The other two were scared away by me, and I even tried to sow discord among them."

Yu Ling naturally trusted her disciple and said with a smile:

"It is Wan Bowen, who calls himself 'Know-It-All' in the Western Regions. He only has the cultivation level of the early stage of Golden Core, and his combat strength is average, but his concealment techniques are superb."

He had previously revealed that a well-regarded Nascent Soul True Monarch had tried to seize the furnace cauldron, and was being hunted down by this True Monarch. However, he managed to evade the Nascent Soul True Monarch's revenge by relying on his own cultivation techniques.

He also sent the message to the family of the female cultivator whom the Nascent Soul True Monarch had taken as a furnace. The Nascent Soul True Monarch was retaliated against, and his cultivation level dropped to the late Foundation Establishment stage. Wan Bowen retaliated fiercely, showing that he was not one to suffer losses. However, because of this, the messages he released were still quite credible.

After that, he supported his cultivation by selling information or taking on tasks that involved collecting specific information. 'The Hive' had also bought information from him before, making him a cultivator with relatively strong principles.

Yu Ling's evaluation is relatively neutral and does not involve personal feelings.

Yunxi stroked her chin before speaking:

"It seems that the Golden Core cultivator hiding in the shadows watching the show must be Wan Bowen. I never expected that I would have such a connection with him. This time, his information is probably going to be inaccurate. 'Bao Jun Xun Yue' is still alive!"

"It's alright, everyone will know once the two of them come out and walk around."

However, Xin Qiujian is a bit troublesome. He was a Nascent Soul disciple of the Kunmo Sect. If the sect finds out that you killed him, they will definitely send people to investigate.

"Master, rest assured, I sent a message to Fellow Daoist Xunkun on the way back, inviting him to visit the Haoran Sect and explain this matter to him privately."

Xin Qiujian has already been possessed. I sealed his nascent soul, which should give the Kunmo Sect an explanation. Maybe I can even help them dig out some snakes, insects, and rodents.”

“I understand. I will leave a record of it in the ‘Hive.’ You will be in charge of entertaining Xun Kun.”

"Yes, Master."

"You must be tired from your journey back. Go back and rest first. I will inform Ancestor Haoyi about how you completed your mission."

"Thank you for your trouble, Master."

After Yunxi finished speaking, she sighed again. She had to go back to the Wei family in Haoran City. All the Wei family disciples who stayed in Kunyu City had been harmed by evil cultivators. She had to go back and inform the family head. She also had to hand over the resources left behind by the Wei family to the family head. In addition, there were the instructions from the Third Elder. All these things were waiting for her to settle.

“Master, I must return to the Wei family. I must give the family an explanation regarding the matter in Kunyu City.”

"Alright, you may go now!"

Yunxi then vanished from the sect, leaving Wei Zonghao, who had come looking for her, empty-handed.

At this moment, Wei Zonghao had already condensed his golden core. His posture was upright, and his face, which had completely lost its baby fat, was now angular and imposing. Years of cultivation had increased his aura, and he was no longer the chubby little boy that Yun Xi had mentioned.

Since Wei Zonghao had not seen Yunxi, he decided to return to his family first.
