My Master Disconnected Yet Again (Part 3)

Chapter 456: The Main Cause of the Closed Gate

"Immortal artifact!" Yi Qing who was holding the melon seeds was stunned briefly. He didn't expect that there'd be an immortal artifact in the lower realm, though it was a lower-tier one.

"It's the Soul Capturing Umbrella!" At the side, Fatty paled as he seemed to remember some horrific scenes as despair rushed into his eyes. The umbrella appeared as if it was about to activate as it sprang open.

One's soul would die completely under the Soul Capturing Umbrella. Fellow Daoist Niu would die!

"Fatty, you..."

"Stop!" Before Shen Ying could finish speaking, Hui Ze stood up abruptly and rushed in directly. As he was rushing too fast, he tumbled and fell towards the front. He rolled along the road and pressed all the weeds and bushes to the ground.

Maybe because his entrance was so spectacular, everyone present at the scene stopped short to watch a meatball rolling over.

"Stop... stop!" Fatty didn't even manage to get back to his feet when he cried out hurriedly towards the group of people with a face full of scratches and horror lingering in his eyes.

He panted as he got up rapidly and placed himself in front of Lonemoon. "Elders, you are mistaken. He didn't do anything to me. I... I ran out myself."

The group was stunned. They looked at one another for a long time, exchanging several looks, before they cupped their fists and saluted together in Fatty's direction. "Greetings, Sect master!"

Lonemoon, "..."

Yi Qing: "..."

Shen Ying, "..."

What?

Didn't they hear it wrong just now? Sect master? Fatty!

Fatty paid no heed to all these, but instead looked at the half-open umbrella above his head worriedly. He hurriedly said to the leading traveling immortal, "Elder Jin, this Fellow Daoist is just an itinerant cultivator whom I just met a few days ago and happened to become my travel partner to go and see the Southern Realm. He didn't capture me and he's not an evil person. You... may keep the Soul Capturing Umbrella first!"

Elder Jin frowned. A hint of hesitation flashed in his eyes. After a long while he still cupped his fists and replied, "Since Sect master says that it's a misunderstanding, of course we will obey." With that said, he raised a hand to make a seal and took back the immortal artifact.

Only the did Fatty let out a relieved sigh. He turned back to look at Lonemoon. He smiled naively once more, and said, "Sorry, Fellow Daoist, I have troubled you guys! They are here to fetch me back. These are all misunderstandings."

"You are a sect master?" Lonemoon glanced at him up and down. He was actually a sect master. Was it "Blindness Sect"?

"Hahaha..." He laughed in an even more embarrassed manner. Scratching his head, he said, "Sorry for keeping it from you. I just... wanted to get out to walk around and take a look, without being restrained by them. That's why I lied to you saying I offended Divine Imperial Sect and hid from them the whole way. I hope Fellow Daoist will not be offended."

"We are very worried that Sect master is out alone." That traveling immortal whose surname was Jin stepped forward directly and said disapprovingly, "This world is dangerous and people are unpredictable. Sect master has a special identity, please don't risk leaving alone next time." With that said, he gave Lonemoon a look meaningfully.

"I just wanted to relieve my boredom for a bit." Fatty's face fell, and he looked very unwilling. "I've stayed in the sect for more than ten years, it's so boring."
