After Being Possessed By A Witch, I Became An Outlaw

Chapter 139 My Intuition Is Probably Wrong (First Update)

Chapter 139: My Intuition Was Probably Wrong (First Update)

Ever since returning from the Left River League, Long Yan had a lingering feeling that things were not yet over. And with the disappearance of the Talisman Treasure Sect and the Water Monster officially launching a war, followed by the appearance of projections in the sky, she always felt like she was in a fog.

Now, after seeing Tang Feng in Dragon City and learning that Tang Ruoling was also in Dragon City, Long Yan's feeling became even more apparent. She looked at Tang Feng with a scrutinizing gaze, not saying a word, leaving Tang Feng a bit confused.

"Do we know each other, Fellow Daoist?"

"I don't know you, but I've heard your story."

Speaking of this, Long Yan couldn't help but want to beat up Tang Feng. Of course, she couldn't really do anything when they met.

Tang Feng couldn't help but wonder in his heart. He was just a valley master from a small place, not really anyone important. Although his family had some reputation in the Left River League, it didn't mean much in the Dragon River Alliance.

Yet someone had heard his story?

"What story do I have?"

Tang Feng curiously asked.

Long Yan was momentarily speechless. She had promised Zhang Chi not to reveal the secrets he had told her, and Tang Feng didn't even remember that his wife was a monster.

From this perspective, Tang Feng's reaction did seem like he was unaware.

"If you don't know, then forget it. Let's not mention it. Since Miss Tang is here, please ask her to come out, and say that an old friend is visiting."

Tang Feng was surprised. This person actually knew Tang Ruoling.

Since they knew Tang Ruoling, why did they have such hostility towards him?

Tang Feng couldn't figure out that his beloved son-in-law had deceived him. Although he was puzzled, he still agreed and asked Long Yan to wait in the store while he went to call Tang Ruoling.

Recently, Tang Ruoling had been feeling down, always looking up at the projections in the sky. Tang Feng knew that his daughter had developed genuine feelings. It was normal for her to feel sad when she saw Zhang Chi in distress but couldn't do anything to help.

Now that she had a friend coming to visit, it would be best for her to talk to someone.

"Ruoling."

When Tang Feng came to find Tang Ruoling, she was as usual, looking up at the sky.

Upon hearing Tang Feng's voice, Tang Ruoling didn't react much.

"What's wrong?"

"There's a woman who claims to be your old friend and wants to see you."

"Old friend?"

Tang Ruoling was puzzled and shifted her gaze back.

She didn't have any friends in the Left River League, let alone in Dragon City.

Was this person lying?

Regardless of the other party's intentions, since they had come to her door, she had no reason to refuse.

She could only follow Tang Feng to the store and saw Long Yan waiting quietly.

Tang Ruoling shivered, wanting to fight, but she knew that neither she nor Tang Feng would be a match for Long Yan.

Back then, Qinghe was so powerful, yet she was still suppressed by Long Yan.

"Don't be nervous, I just came to chat with you."

Long Yan sensed Tang Ruoling's tension and spoke to calm her down, adding, "Zhang Chi has told me about your situation. Don't worry, I will keep it a secret."

This was implying to Tang Ruoling that she wouldn't reveal her half-monster identity.

Tang Ruoling couldn't help but make associations. How close were Long Yan and Zhang Chi that she would help keep such a secret?

Thinking about this, she felt a hint of sourness in her heart.

"Why did you come to find me? Is there something you want?"

"It's not convenient to talk here."

"Then come with me."

Tang Feng: "..."

He was very curious about what had happened. When did his daughter make a new friend?

Unfortunately, no matter how much he scratched his head, Tang Ruoling seemed oblivious and led Long Yan to a private and empty space.

Regardless, Long Yan had already shown enough goodwill by not revealing her identity in front of Tang Feng.

Tang Ruoling's response was to bring her to a secluded and private space.

"Elder Long, what's the matter? Just say it."

"I like straightforward people like you."

Long Yan smiled slightly and said, "Then you answer me first, why are you here?"

"After that day, I left the Left River."

"Did Zhang Chi tell you to do so?"

Tang Ruoling nodded. She subconsciously looked towards the sky, but the window was closed, blocking her view.

There's a saying that true feelings are revealed in times of adversity. Before that night, Tang Ruoling couldn't be sure what Zhang Chi thought of her. Was he simply lusting after her body, or was he bound by responsibility?

But after that night, she knew that it didn't matter anymore.

At least Zhang Chi was willing to risk exposing himself to help her solve her problems.

After that night, she looked forward to seeing Zhang Chi again every moment.

Even if Zhang Chi would bully her every time they met, she accepted it.

She even secretly decided in her heart that no matter how Zhang Chi wanted to bully her, she would cooperate.

However... she never expected that after that meeting, the next time she saw Zhang Chi would be through a projection.

Sensing Tang Ruoling's worries, Long Yan could understand.

She had been very worried about Zhang Chi during this period of time. If even her elder sister felt this way, Tang Ruoling, as her confidante, would surely be even more concerned.

Seeing this, Long Yan, who had been somewhat skeptical of Tang Ruoling, softened a bit.

Upon learning that Tang Ruoling and Tang Feng were both safe, Long Yan instinctively felt that something was off about them!

Why did they both escape before the Left River League fell?

But upon further thought, it seemed reasonable that Tang Ruoling knew about the Water Monster's attack on the Left River and had Tang Feng leave early, and she left as well. She had no reason to stay at the Left River League.

However, Long Yan had a strange intuition that there was something she hadn't seen through.

Fine, sharp eyes couldn't bring her stronger insight. If only Zhang Chi could be by her side.

With her intuition and Zhang Chi's keenness, they would definitely be the best partners.

Long Yan sighed and reassured Tang Ruoling, "Don't worry too much. With Zhang Chi's intelligence, he'll be fine."

"Yeah, I believe in him too."

Belief and worry don't contradict each other.

"This time, I'm planning to rescue the survivors of the downstream four sects. You're from the Left River League, would you like to come with me?"

Although Tang Ruoling was a half-demon, she could uphold her principles and not harm humans. In Long Yan's eyes, she was more reliable than many humans who only cared about their own interests.

"Are you serious?"

Tang Ruoling was shocked. What did Zhang Chi say to Long Yan?

"Why would I joke with you? You look downcast, haven't rested well for a while, worrying is useless. It's better to do something meaningful with me and wait for him to come back."

Long Yan's personal charm lies in her sincerity and magnanimity.

She may not have a big heart, but she is quite accommodating.

Tang Ruoling was moved and thought what she said made sense, so she readily agreed.

"My father still has some unsold medicinal herbs. Now that the alliance is in trouble, we should also do our part."

"Forget about your dad, I don't want to see him."

She was afraid she couldn't resist the urge to hit him.

During this time, Long Yan's mood was not good. She was like a powder keg, constantly suppressing herself, and it was uncertain when she would explode.

Tang Ruoling: "..."

Her dad has always been fine, how did he provoke Long Yan?

Or... did Zhang Chi say something?

A woman's intuition is indeed sharp. Tang Ruoling immediately sensed the problem.

However, she had no intention of defending her father.

Since Zhang Chi had already said it, let her dad suffer a bit!

And so, Tang Ruoling and Long Yan set off on the boat heading east.

Smooth sailing, they soon met the survivors of the Sword Sect.

Only then did Long Yan learn that because Jiang Qingyun had sacrificed herself to hold the line, the Sword Sect had the most disciples who escaped, a total of three hundred.

As for the other sects, fewer people managed to escape, only a dozen or so. Rebuilding their sects would be extremely difficult.

Seeing the number of survivors, Long Yan knew how fierce the battle was.

After learning about Jiang Qingyun's heroic deeds, Long Yan couldn't help but feel moved and somewhat ashamed.

When she left Sword Sect, she had always been suspicious of Jiang Qingyun, feeling that something was off about him.

But now that Jiang Qingyun had achieved such a level, what else did she have to doubt?

"It seems that my intuition may not always be accurate."

Long Yan began to doubt her own intuition, as making one mistake could be a coincidence, but making multiple mistakes was not right.

There were also many times when her intuition had no answers.

Perhaps, when her intuition was correct, it was just a coincidence?

"Anyway, intuition is just a guide, and actions still need to be based on evidence."

Long Yan concluded in her heart and looked up at the sky.

Several days had passed, and the living space had been further restricted. Zhang Chi and the others barely survived with some dried meat and started to have conflicts with others.

Fortunately, their strength was not weak, and they managed to overcome each difficulty with some close calls.

Meanwhile, in the territory of Talisman Treasure Sect, a good show was unfolding.

Yi Qiuxin lay in the pot while Yi Hui added firewood.

Their eyes were both a pale green color, while Yi Hui had a hint of red.

Evil fallen spirits initially appeared green and gradually turned red, representing the beginning of their transformation and their rank as spirits.

After their eyes turned red, the spirits would then turn into white-eyed spirits.

At this stage, spirits could not control their appearance, so most of them looked terrifying and frightening.

Mature spirits could transform into human forms.

Before they transformed, it was difficult to detect their abnormalities.

From the progress, both of them were new spirits, but Yi Hui's transformation was deeper.

Yi Qiuxin struggled and roared angrily in the pot, "Traitor, you traitor! How dare you do this to me!"

"Heh, since you have become a spirit, you should know that among the spirit race, the one who devours their own kin is the strongest."

Yi Qiuxin's eyes turned green, and what he had done was self-evident.

Among the people still alive on the island, apart from the food reserves, there were only a few left.

The rest were all evil spirits.

Yi Hui had been lurking for a long time and finally found an opportunity to steal the fragments of the Daoist technique hidden by Yi Qiuxin.

The reason Yi Qiuxin didn't carry them with him was because he had finally discovered the problem with the fragments of the Daoist technique.

After all, he was the sect master, with high cultivation and a firm mind.

After turning into a spirit, he briefly regained his clarity and realized the problem.

He didn't dare to keep the fragments on him anymore, nor did he dare to let others obtain them, so he had to hide them himself.

He never expected that his own son had been watching him all along...

I woke up late, but there is still a chapter update of ten thousand words today.
