Seeking Immortality In The World Of Cultivation

Chapter 602: Chapter 503: Facing Two Enemies with One

That is, Meng Guan didn’t truly share with He Song everything they experienced on the battlefield in order to keep him from worrying about the safety of Meng Guan and Wei Fan.

It was like children traveling far from home usually only sharing good news and concealing their worries when communicating with their families.

For the sake of not worrying He Song, Meng Guan also chose to selectively hide some things from him.

For example, He Song didn’t see anything in Meng Guan’s letter about their recent encounter when they were surrounded and fought two enemies on their own.

Not to mention this.

Even when talking about the dangerous moments Meng Guan and Wei Fan experienced together in the past, Meng Guan always downplayed them.

Take, for example, their experience at the Bamboo Mountain Immortal Pavilion and Meng Guan’s previous communications with He Song. The descriptions of battles he heard from Meng Guan were more or less the same.

However, only those who have truly experienced it can know how dangerous it was at that time.

For instance, the time Meng Guan encountered a siege.

If Meng Guan wasn’t strong, he might have been severely injured in an instant, and even death could have been entirely possible afterward.

If there were more cultivators from the demonic path participating in attacking Meng Guan this time, no matter how strong Meng Guan was, he might still have faced defeat.

If there were no timely reinforcements arriving, Meng Guan might not have faced a life-threat during this encounter, but he probably wouldn’t have been able to get away either.

If only…

However, these easily conceivable crises…

Turned into a minor issue in Meng Guan’s mouth and, indeed, were never mentioned to He Song.

Thinking about this, He Song looked into the direction of the Cloud State Mansion from afar and sighed.

He had a vague guess of Meng Guan’s thoughts.

Meng Guan was powerful.

This was plain to see.

Perhaps, such incidents were not unusual for him.

However, since he thought of hiding this from He Song and not telling him…

Meng Guan must have known the danger of this matter.

Choosing not to tell He Song about it was probably because he didn’t want to involve him.

The war between the Sun Faction and the God Locking Sect – it was unclear how long it would last.

Being naturally cautious, He Song would face unpredictable consequences if he got involved rashly.

Now, He Song’s identity was that of a loose cultivator, and though his cultivation had reached the Golden Core Realm, he was still powerless to help much.

Instead of telling He Song about these things and making him worry for nothing, it’s better not to say it outright.

That way, He Song could focus on cultivation and not get distracted by the war.

However, he didn’t know…

His sources of information, besides Meng Guan, also included Master Luo Jing.

Even though Master Luo Jing was aware that He Song, Meng Guan, and Wei Fan had an extraordinary relationship, he didn’t know Meng Guan’s well-intentioned efforts.

On the contrary, he informed He Song right away after Meng Guan gradually became known as Master Duan Hun on the battlefield.

That’s right, in Master Luo Jing’s opinion…

Being able to make a name for oneself on the battlefield was something to be celebrated.

With He Song and Meng Guan being good friends, it was natural to inform He Song of this happy event as soon as possible.

This also explained why He Song learned about it from Master Luo Jing’s letter.

However…

Although he knew that neither Meng Guan nor Master Luo Jing had any ill intentions towards him, and their actions were out of good will…

After learning about it, He Song still couldn’t help but sigh.

With both of them acting like this, He Song didn’t know what to say.

Should he blame Master Luo Jing for telling him about it?

But Master Luo Jing was bringing him good news.

Blaming Master Luo Jing for this was something He Song would never do.

However…

Should he blame Meng Guan for always hiding this from him and not telling him?

Meng Guan’s actions were also because he didn’t want He Song to get involved in this matter, so he had no choice.

Blaming Meng Guan for this was also something He Song could never do.

After a lot of thinking…

He Song shook his head and casually wrote a reply to Master Luo Jing, saying that he already knew about this, and thanking him for the reminder.

In addition, He Song stated that he was still staying away from trouble and would not be able to return to the Green Moon Immortal State in a short time.

Therefore, he was unable to thank Master Luo Jing in person.

He could only wait until he returned to the Green Moon Immortal State in the future to express his gratitude in person.

After replying to Master Luo Jing, He Song soon fell into deep thought.

Now that he knew about this matter and understood the danger Meng Guan and Wei Fan faced on the battlefield…

He couldn’t just verbally warn Meng Guan and Wei Fan to be careful like before.

This time, Meng Guan managed to fight against two opponents and held on until reinforcements arrived.

That could be considered very lucky.

What if Meng Guan’s rescuers turned out to be not from the Sun Faction but from the God Locking Sect instead? Then things might have turned out completely differently.

In such a situation, He Song felt that he needed to do more for his two friends.

For example…

He Song’s divine consciousness scanned many items in his storage bag, and he gradually had some ideas.

As early as when He Song and his friends had just joined the Thick Earth Sect, they had each received a Sound Transmission Amulet from the sect.

The Sound Transmission Amulet had the primary function of conveying small items, such as thin paper, to another Sound Transmission Amulet.

However…

Since it had a transmission function…

There’s no way it could only transport a few sheets of thin paper.
