Chapter 1442 - 1443: Turmoil in the North
"Why do I always feel like you’re targeting Su Chengyu?"
Yu Ming asked indifferently.
Mo Ningchen blinked innocently and responded, "Am I not stating the facts? Why don’t you ask him yourself to see if he has such considerations?"
After contemplating for a while, Yu Ming didn’t reply to Mo Ningchen and swiftly took off: "I’m heading back to the Capital City first, this mess has nothing to do with me."
Matters outside of one’s mission, a Demon Slayer Saint may choose to handle them, but can also choose not to.
Just like when Ye Qingci first arrived at Lin Jiang, she had once intervened when the Dragon Soul Department in Longjiang appeared; her stance, in fact, leaned more towards the Dragon Soul Department rather than the responsibilities of her own Demon Slayer Department.
The tasks that Yu Ming was mainly in charge of had a multitude of connections with the Nether Clan, so she was also trying her best to avoid getting involved in the domestic chaos, which was ultimately very different from what she intended to do.
What’s more important, the squabbles within the Nascent Soul Realm were trivial to her. She was aware of Su Chengyu’s strength and knew he could handle it with ease.
Mo Ningchen watched her leave and said leisurely, "With you acting like this, how could I possibly join in the excitement?"
Mo Ningchen turned his head to look in the direction Su Chengyu had left, and after some thought, he ultimately headed towards the direction of the Capital City as well.
It wasn’t that he didn’t want to go, but since Yu Ming didn’t follow, he understood that by going alone he would likely just embarrass himself; it was better to head back to the Capital City first.
