Xie Yang said extremely sincerely, and there was no hint of fakeness on his expression.
“Then, did you see anyone while you were trapped here? Or did you sense any other cultivators passing by?”
Lu Zijia didn’t express that she didn’t believe what he said, but asked directly.
Xie Yang nodded without thinking. “Yes, two hours ago, I sensed the aura of other cultivators. There were about three to four of them. I called for help from them, but they didn’t seem to hear me.”
“Could those people be Xiao Fengzi and the others?” The golden pagoda shook the yellow sand off its big cat’s head and said to its master.
Lu Zijia, Mu Tianyan and Du Yu, who happened to be standing under the head of the golden pagoda cat, were caught off guard by the yellow sand and dust that covered their heads…
The veins on Lu Zijia’s forehead throbbed. After taking a few deep breaths, she resisted the urge to beat up the golden pagoda.
The golden pagoda, which didn’t know that it had upset its master and Boss Yan again, only felt a chill down its spine. What was going on?
“Let’s follow the direction of the jade pendant. As long as the jade pendant is still with them, we can find them.” Mu Tianyan looked at the endless yellow sand around him.
“Alright, let’s go find them quickly!” Lu Zijia said impatiently and immediately pulled her Dao companion back to the broad back of the golden pagoda.
Oh my, she had only been in the desert for a while, but she already felt like her face was covered with a thick layer of yellow sand. If she stayed for a few hours, even her mother might not be able to recognize her.
And Xie Yang was a good example.
Seeing that Lu Zijia and Mu Tianyan had no intention of caring about him at all, Xie Yang couldn’t help feeling anxious.
“Senior Lu, Senior Mu, I’m seriously injured and I’m separated from my fellow disciples. If I encounter a demonic cultivator again, I won’t be able to resist at all. Can you please bring me along?”
Du Yu, who was about to jump onto the back of the golden pagoda, couldn’t help looking at Xie Yang with a complicated expression when she heard that. There was an obvious struggle in her eyes.
Even though she and Xie Yang weren’t students from the same department, they had interacted a few times after all. She really couldn’t stand by and watch Xie Yang die.
“Senior Lu, can we… bring him along?” Du Yu braced herself and asked nervously.
“Senior Sister wants to save him?” Lu Zijia raised her eyebrows and asked back.
Du Yu hesitated for a moment before nodding in the end. “We’re students from the same academy after all. Besides, I think he’s a good person.”
“Since Senior Sister wants to save him, then let’s save him.”
Lu Zijia agreed so quickly that Du Yu and Xie Yang couldn’t help being stunned for a moment. Apparently, they didn’t expect Lu Zijia to agree so easily.
At this moment, Du Yu couldn’t help feeling a bit apologetic in her mind. She deliberately observed Lu Zijia’s expression and was secretly relieved when she saw that she wasn’t angry.
Lu Zijia was her savior, and she didn’t want to make her savior unhappy for someone she only met.
Xie Yang, who was in a sorry state, was carried onto the back of the golden pagoda by Du Yu. After thanking them, he hurriedly took out healing pills from his storage bag and took them.
Seeing this, the corners of Lu Zijia’s mouth couldn’t help curling up. She shook her head slightly and thought to herself, “This Senior Sister Du really doesn’t remember!”
She had clearly suffered a huge loss not long ago, but now, she still had so much empathy. It seemed that she had to suffer a few more times to learn her lesson..
