"Miao Shi, you know that I can't disturb my practice in seclusion, but you still come here every now and then to interrupt my practice. What are your intentions?"
This time, Lu Chen was not so polite. The moment he saw Miao Shi, he directly accused him, and all his anger was instantly released, "If you can't tell me something, I will immediately hold you accountable. Are you?"
If you want to face the wall for hundreds of years, or if you want to drive out the Dan Sect, it’s up to you."
"Deputy sect master, I have no bad intentions. I am responsible for my duties and I have to confirm your existence and your safety at all times."
Miao Shi had a sad face and a helpless tone, but he still said the same words as before, which made Lu Chen angry.
"Is there something wrong with you or any difficulty, and you want to ask me for help but don't dare to say it openly?"
Lu Chen suppressed his anger and asked.
"No, my subordinates have no difficulties, only responsibilities. Please don't misunderstand me, deputy sect leader."
Miao Shi said quickly.
"If you don't have anything important to do in the future, don't come and disturb me. You need to be quiet to practice in seclusion. It's not like you don't understand!"
Lu Chen stared at Miao Shi with stern eyes and said, "Let's forget it this time. If there is a next time, don't blame me for being rude to you."
If it were anyone else who did this, he would never let it go easily. At least he would be beaten up on the spot and then handed over to the sect master to deal with it, and he would have to be punished to the fullest extent.
But for Miao Shi, he really couldn't do it because he believed that Miao Shi didn't mean to cause trouble.
"Thank you, deputy sect master. I will take my leave."
Miao Shi bowed repeatedly, and then left quickly as before.
Lu Chen stared at Miao Shi's retreating back, with a hint of suspicion in his eyes.
Miao Shi was not a scheming person, nor was he someone who was against him, but he always interfered with his practice every few days. There must be something fishy in this.
As for what is strange...
That’s unknown!
He came to Taiyi Palace not long ago, and the time in Dan Palace was also short, so he was not familiar with many situations in Dan Palace.
However, the head of the Dan Sect is fully committed to protecting him. In addition, he is also the deputy head of the Dan Sect, so he has great authority here. No matter what monsters and monsters are in the Dan Palace, you have to take a detour when you see him.
If someone wants to kill him, it's just seeking death, and being killed by him is more like it.
As for whether Miao Shi will come again...
He doesn't know!
What if we come again...
He hasn't thought about it yet. He will wait until the time comes and act as the situation arises.
After a while, Miao Shi's figure had disappeared, and Lu Chen closed the door and returned to his room to restart his practice.
Five days later, Miao Shi came again...
"roll!"
Lu Chen's face was gloomy. The moment he opened the door, he yelled at Miao Shi.
Then, before Miao Shi could react in a daze, he had already closed the door. The sound of the door closing was loud and loud. It was clear that Lu Chen was venting his extreme dissatisfaction.
"My subordinates, get out now!"
Miao Shi bowed to the closed door, and then left quickly as before.
However, just as Miao Shi's figure gradually faded away, someone quietly jumped out of an open window on the back of the pavilion and followed Miao Shi silently.
That person is none other than Lu Chen!
Lu Chen knew that the purpose of Miao Shi's coming was just to see him and confirm that he was still there, as if nothing else mattered.
Therefore, Lu Chen didn't bother to talk to Miao Shi, didn't bother to get angry, and just followed him to see what Miao Shi was up to.
Miao Shi interfered with his practice from time to time, obviously deliberately, but he refused to say why. There must be a reason for such strange behavior, and he had to find out the source, otherwise what nonsense would he practice?
The route Miao Shi left was to go straight north. If nothing unexpected happened, he would have to return to the garrison at the North Gate.
Unexpectedly, before reaching the North Gate garrison, Miao Shi suddenly turned to the right, passed through the North Courtyard, and came to a remote garden.
The garden was poorly maintained, full of fallen leaves, and dusty everywhere. It was obvious at first glance that few people came and went.
But there are some dilapidated pavilions in that garden. Among them, the fairy energy flowing in the small pavilion on the far left is relatively fast, and the powerful aura is fluctuating. There are actually people hiding in it to practice.
Miao Shi went to that small pavilion and did not push the door open. Instead, he stood respectfully at the door, as if waiting for the people inside to receive him.
"You're back?"
The door of the small pavilion was not opened, but someone spoke inside, obviously knowing that Miao Shi was coming.
"Yes!"
Miao Shi said respectfully.
"How is the deputy sect leader?"
the man asked.
"Everything is as usual, I am still practicing in my own place, but my attitude towards my subordinates has become even worse."
Miao Shi said.
"It's weird if you don't have a bad attitude when your practice is interrupted. This is a normal reaction. You don't have to worry about it."
The man added, "After three days, you continue to visit the deputy sect master. In short, supervision must be in place and there must be no mistakes in safety issues."
"But... the deputy sect leader is already impatient with his subordinates. This time he just told his subordinates to get lost. Next time, he might just slash at his subordinates with a knife."
Miao Shi said with a bitter face.
"What are you afraid of? If the deputy sect leader wants to kill you, let him do it. Anyway, the deputy sect leader's cultivation level is not high and he can't kill you."
That man actually said this.
"However, my subordinates feel that the deputy sect master is really practicing in seclusion and will not leave the Dan Palace quietly. There is no need to check whether he is still there every now and then."
Miao Shi frowned and said, "Actually, the deputy sect master's temper is not that good. Once he is angered, I am afraid he will expel his subordinates from the palace."
"You are only performing supervisory duties. Even if the deputy sect leader is angry with you, we will still support you."
The man chuckled and said, "What's more, you were personally sent by the sect master to the deputy sect master. If the deputy sect leader asks you to accuse you, the sect master will not just sit idly by."
"The sect leader allows his subordinates to stay with the deputy sect leader. They are for the deputy sect leader's dispatch. They are there to help the deputy sect leader solve problems, not to disturb the deputy sect leader's practice."
Miao Shi said with a sad face, "However, the subordinate has been disturbing me like this again and again. The deputy sect leader no longer wants to see the subordinate. This is in conflict with the subordinate's previous responsibilities."
"It's the past. Before, our Dan Palace had not broken up with Duanlong Palace."
The man added, "The situation is different now. The sect master does not allow the deputy sect leader to leave the palace, so your responsibilities have to change. Making sure the deputy sect leader is in the palace at all times is your biggest task."
"Okay, I'll just do as you're told."
Miao Shi responded helplessly.
"Okay, nothing happens. You can go back to the north gate."
The man said.
"My subordinates resign!"
Miao Shi responded, turned around and left, but he didn't know that his conversation with the people in the pavilion had been overheard.
