Despite being warned by Chu Junyu to stay away from Ji Wuyou, Pei Jing still kept an occasional watch on him.
In Shangyang Peak, Ji Wuyou was out of place like an outsider, and was excluded and being treated indifferently for many reasons.
Husband and Wife are of the Same Mind Chapter 1
One of the reasons resembled Pei Jing’s experience at Yinghui Peak, as he didn’t join the Sect in the usual way but was brought directly to Shangyang Peak. This naturally sparked jealousy. Additionally, Ji Wuyou’s own demeanor contributed to the situation. He was a shy and somewhat foolish boy who made an easy target for bullies.
After dinner, they went to the secret chamber of Shangyang Peak.
Pei Jing sat opposite Xu Jing.
From the second-floor window of the secret chamber, they had a clear view of the scene below.
They observed Ji Wuyou meekly following a disciple at the Qi Refining Stage Four, sticking close to them and following their lead.
That disciple at Qi Refining Stage Four had a cold and sharp appearance.
When everyone asked who Ji Wuyou was, the disciple proudly responded, “Oh, him! He’s a dog I recently got. I tell him to go east, and he doesn’t dare to go west. So obedient.”
The crowd teased, “Oh, then make him bark a couple of times.”
The disciple turned around and put on a different expression, with a wide smile on his face. “With so many people watching, do you want to bark a few times? Let’s just have some fun among friends, nothing serious.”
Ji Wuyou looked at him, confused. In his mind, barking like a dog was a disrespectful thing to do. But this person in front of him was his newfound friend, the only person so far who was willing to talk to him. How could friends insult each other?
Moreover, with so many people staring at him, he felt extremely nervous. He wanted to please others so badly. After hesitating for a while, he nervously twirled his fingers and lowered his voice, softly “woofing” once.
The crowd was momentarily stunned and then burst into laughter.
“Wow, did he actually bark?”
“Shangyang Peak actually hired a fool.”
“Can you bark louder?”
Ji Wuyou scratched his head, seeing them laughing, and he laughed as well.
Xu Jing, with a kind and idle nature, often found himself stealing glances outside the window. “This has gone too far.” While he didn’t hold a particular fondness for Ji Wuyou, witnessing someone’s dignity being trampled upon was something he couldn’t bear.
However, despite his empathy, Xu Jing found himself at a loss, unable to lend a helping hand.
“How did Ji Wuyou end up mixing with this group of people?”
They were a notorious bunch of wastrels from Shangyang Peak, careless and with no focus on cultivation. They had no hope of entering the Inner Peaks or attaining Foundation Establishment. They could only live their days in a daze. It was pointless to reason with such a group of people.
