In the darkness, Ling Qingzhu’s moving figure suddenly froze. Her bright eyeswere no longer as calm as before. Instead, a rich disbelief had taken its place.

Her emotions, which only surfaced rarely just like the blossoming of theepiphyllum flower, suddenly arose at this moment because of a single nameuttered by her companions.

Lin Dong…

It was an ordinary name. However, it stirred violent ripples in Ling Qingzhu’scalm lake like heart.

She would never forget what happened four years ago in that tiny Great YanEmpire.

Over the past four years, she had buried that incident deep within her heart.Along with it, she had also buried the one called Lin Dong in the deepestrecesses of her heart and tried to forget about him with the passage of time.

However, despite burying it for four years, everything had been completelyawakened with that name at this moment. The scene from four years ago alsoflooded out from the deepest parts of her mind, and was still so vivid…

After what had happened back then, even with Ling Qingzhu’s character, she wassecretly filled with shame, rage and killing intent towards him. She had oncecontemplated killing Lin Dong in order to wipe this incident clean forever…

Of course, she did not do that in the end. Perhaps it was because of thesteely mettle the immature youth had displayed back then, while he was beingpressured by a far stronger Lin Langtian, that had touched her. Or she wasactually a kind person deep in her bones. Or it could be due to other reasonsshe was unaware of…

In the end, she chose to let Lin Dong off and even saved him from Wang Yan.Perhaps only she knew just how complicated her emotions were back then.

Ling Qingzhu still remembered the youth’s disheveled yet exceptionally brightexpression back on that mountain peak, when he proclaimed to her that he wouldsurpass Lin Langtian, and that ruffian like tone when he declared that when heappeared in front of her once again, he would tell her that any woman that heslept with would be his…

At that time, Ling Qingzhu did not believe his words. She very clearly knewhow weak Lin Dong was, and the distance between them was far beyond hisimagination. After all, she was a member of a super sect and he was merely abranch family member from a low rank empire.

The two of them belonged to completely different worlds. If nothing unexpectedhappened in this world, the two of them would never have met.

Ling Qingzhu did not mention this back then. In the face of the youth’s boldpromise, perhaps she could only treated it as a joke in her heart, or the rightof frivolous youth…

Ling Qingzhu knew that once she left Great Yan Empire, this incident would beburied forever in her memories. Perhaps, she may not even step foot into thatempire ever again and would gradually forget everything that happened and thepeople there…

Even the young man called Lin Dong.

This was what she had secretly believed until that name once again resoundedin her ears. Only then did she realize that all her suppressed memories werestill as vivid as before…

That pitifully weak youth who was once forced into such a sorry state by LinLangtian’s aura, that youth who was forced into a perilous situation by WangYan…

He had finally walked out of the tiny Great Yan Empire and rose above the restin the Hundred Empire War.

He had actually delivered on the promises that he had made back then.

The gauze on her face gently trembled as Ling Qingzhu gently bit her red lips.A complicated expression flowed in her bright and clear eyes. She could onlyimagine the effort and price Lin Dong must have paid in order to reach thislevel.

This guy… the steely mettle that had touched her back then seemed to have notchanged at all.

“Senior Qingzhu? What is it?”

Behind Ling Qingzhu, the other girls were also startled when she suddenlystopped. Promptly, they cautiously asked.

Ling Qingzhu gently lifted her head and breathed in an icy-cold breath of airthrough her gauze. As the cold flowed through her heart, she used it tosuppress the surging emotions within.

“It’s nothing.”

Ling Qingzhu softly said. She leaned back her head and turned her eyes to theback, as if she wanted to see through space and catch a glimpse of thatfamiliar figure again. Moments later, she finally turned around, gentlyclenching her slender jade-like hand. No longer hesitating, the green lotusbeneath her feet flickered, before it transformed into a meteor and flew out.

“Lin Dong, it is indeed surprising that you can make it here. However, nowthat you are here, you will finally understand the gap between us. I am notlooking down on you. The fact that you can reach such a stage is more thanenough proof of your talent.”

“However, this alone is still not enough for you to utter those words you hadsaid previously before me.”

“You are the first man to have taken my body. If you are truly capable, makeyourself the last. However, it is not so simple to conquer me, Ling Qingzhu.”

“Hopefully, you will have the genuine qualifications to utter those words infront of me the next time we meet in the Eastern Xuan Region. Regardless of theoutcome, at the very at least, I admire your courage and conviction…”

“She’s gone…”

Atop the Hundred Empire Mountain, Lin Dong stared at the spot where LingQingzhu vanished as his lips gently pressed together, and his originallysurging heart gradually calmed down. However, he did not feel anxious. Since hehad reached the Eastern Xuan Region, he believed that he would have theopportunity to meet her again in future.

“The currently Ling Qingzhu is quite powerful.” Little Marten casually said.“From what I can tell, she should have reached the peak of Nirvana stage andshe is merely one step away from the Life and Death stage.”

“Peak of the Nirvana stage.”

Lin Dong’s pupils shrunk a little before he involuntarily sighed in his heart.She was truly a lady blessed by the heavens. In merely four years, she hadimproved tremendously. Her progress made even himself feel as if there was nochance of catching up.

“Heh heh, I believe in you. I believe it will be quite satisfying to conquersuch a lady.” Little Marten patted Lin Dong’s shoulder before he laughed in astrange manner.

Lin Dong rolled his eyes at him.

“Oh? Is brother Lin Dong interested in Ling Qingzhu?” While Lin Dong andLittle Marten spoke, Liu Bai clearly saw the direction Lin Dong had beenstaring at. Immediately, he asked with a twinkly smile.

“Do you know her?” Lin Dong was somewhat startled as he asked.

“Heh, is there anyone in Eastern Xuan Region who does not know Ling Qingzhu ofthe Nine Heavens Supreme Purity Palace? She is the direct disciple of the NineHeavens Supreme Purity Palace Empress and she holds an extraordinary status.Furthermore, her looks are out of this world and countless geniuses fromvarious super sects have a crush on her. It is a pity that no one has been ableto peel off her gauze and peek at her beauty.” Liu Bai laughed. There was anunconcealable passion in his words as he spoke.

Lin Dong scratched his nose in an unnatural manner while a peculiar expressionfilled his eyes. Not only did he peel off her gauze and saw her face, he even…

When he thought of that absurd deed that happened back then, even someone likeLin Dong involuntarily felt a slight heat in his heart. To a man, there wasnothing more satisfying in this world that conquering an ice queen…

Of course, Lin Dong was not dumb enough to mention this incident. Even thoughhe had stood out in the Hundred Empire War, there was still an extremely hugegap between him and the direct disciples of the super sects. If news that hehad defiled this goddess got out, several of Ling Qingzhu’s admirers would comehunting for him.

“So she is from Nine Heavens Supreme Purity Palace…”

Nonetheless, Lin Dong managed to uncover Ling Qingzhu’s background from LiuBai. He had never expected that she was someone from Nine Heavens SupremePurity Palace. In a manner of speaking, Lin Dong had quite a strong affinitywith this sect. In fact, back in Great Yan Empire, he even managed to obtain aNine Heavens Supreme Purity Palace’s martial art from that fellow.

With these thoughts in mind, Lin Dong involuntarily chuckled before hestretched his back. When his eyes once again turned to look at that spot whereLing Qingzhu vanished, a small smile appeared on his face. Meanwhile, a tinybit of anticipation gushed out from his heart.

Ling Qingzhu, you had better be careful if we meet once again.
