Wei Liang rushed to Qian Qi Pass with Lin Jiu.
He held on to her wrist, and with just a small tap on his feet, they travelled in a sharp arc and landed a dozen miles away. Once again, he lightly tapped to get some momentum, and flew by another dozen miles.
If someone were about to ask how Lin Jiu felt at this moment—
She would say that she felt like a jumping frog, but from high above. It was as if her heart was tied on a fine strung that was suddenly wrenched up, and then the next moment pulled down. She held tightly onto the side of Wei Liang’s robe as her eyes took in the scene around her.
The flat land had already been completely devastated by the evil clan, and there were traces of blood and fire everywhere. Could this place really be used to gather spirits and auras?
She dared to sneak into the secret realm because of two reasons: one was to raise her cultivation base to achieve the Golden Core Stage to deal with the various traps in the secret realm; the other was to obtain the Red Lotus’ ultimate move.
At this moment, there was not even a bit of green left in this land destroyed by the evil clan. The houses and palaces that were once built there were completely leveled, and nothing precious could have possibly been preserved.
Occasionally, the evil creatures would realize the two of them passing by. The weaker ones would already lose sight of them before they could even gain their focus, while the stronger ones, who opened their wings to pounce at them, were turned into ice sculptures by Wei Liang, and pinned down like dead mosquitoes.
In what seemed like no time at all, Wei Liang and Lin Jiu arrived outside of Qian Qi Pass.
She could only see a pale green fortress from afar, but as they approached, the simplicity of it caught her attention and left her quite breathless.
Half of the Qian Qi Pass was built on a mountain, while the other half was built on a rock wall on a mountain cliff. The fortress looked like a scary blue-gray beast, coldly overlooking the land. It was surrounded by copper water to prevent attacks from the evil clan, and after the passing of years and war, scars of blood and fire on the wall could be seen everywhere.
Wei Liang’s gaze landed on the observatory deck halfway up the mountain where many high-ranking demons were circling in the air, like a big black tumor was growing on the blue-gray fortress.
A swarm of demons was pouring in from the bottom of the fortress, most of them rushing through the barrier to get to the flat land. There was also a small group that was following the stone steps at the bottom of the fortress to the observatory deck.
The demons slightly backed away when an explosion erupted.
In between the lights and the fire, a clear and pleasant female voice could be heard from the observatory deck.
“Master—”
Wei Liang landed lightly on the observation deck wall like a bird. Three of the swordsmen had been fighting for quite some time. Lin Qing Yin fought while recharging her vitality. They were surrounded by mostly infant demons, but there were ten great demons among them.
Fortunately, the observation deck was easy to defend but difficult to attack. The three of them occupied a good place and their defense was very stable. If they could hang on until Liu Qing Yin completely recharged, the three could eventually launch a powerful counterattack with their swords.
Wei Liang’s gaze stopped on Qing Yun Xi for a while.
Qing Yun Xi bowed down with his gaze low. “Master.” He stopped, he balanced the long sword on his fingertips, passed it to Wei Liang and said, “Master’s sword.”
Wei Liang took the long sword over from Qing Yun Xi’s hands with a hum, and his long delicate fingers wrapped around the grip of the sword.
As soon as he touched it, a clear glow burst from the blade. He swung it casually like a fan, and the demons surrounding the observatory deck fell off the platform after being struck by the sword. Mu Rong Chun and Liu Qing Yin immediately felt the pressure on them lessen.
Liu Qing Yin returned and landed right in front of Wei Liang, as light as a butterfly. She only managed to smile halfway when she suddenly saw Wei Liang’s arm resting on Lin Jiu’s waist, and her heart sank to rock bottom.
“Master…” She bit her lips and looked at him pleadingly. “Senior Brother risked his life to lead the demons to the south, it was so dangerous! Fourth Brother also became seriously injured to save me! “
She was just using others to express how upset she felt, but Wei Liang ignored it.
“Why is Yun Xi here?” he asked.
“He knew that I was killing demons at the river, and Senior Brother rushed here even when he didn’t completely recover. Luckily he came in time, or might have already…”
Although Liu Qing Yin’s words faltered, but the grievance in her eyes said it clearly—why would you choose to save her but not me? Is it because she’s weak?! You chose to put the three of us in danger and leave us here to fend for ourselves for such a cowardly and incompetent woman!
“Master!” Liu Qing Yin cried out in anger. Jealousy made her slightly confused. “Fourth Brother had already been hurt when he barged into Ji Yuan’s formation to help you! And Senior Brother just took the Gu Yuan grass medicine, and had to drag his sick body this far to help… Each of us tried our very best, so how can you still have a clear conscience while fooling around!”
Mu Rong Chun hurriedly defended against another wave of attack from the demons, and when he came back, he smiled as he tried to smoothen the situation. “Sister, don’t worry, I’m fine. Nothing happened to me, and Senior Brother is also fine! Now that Master is here, we should prepare to break through! Although Senior Brother had already lured the big monsters who were chasing us out of the gate, but I reckon that they are about to return. We shouldn’t stay here for long!”
There were stone stairs at the back of the observation deck. The ones going up led to an even higher observation deck, and the ones going down led to the bottom of the fortress. At this moment, there were already many demons squeezing their way up the steps, and from the sounds of it, they were almost here. Even if they were only low-level demons, being attacked from both sides was definitely not good.
Mu Rong Chun didn’t think that Wei Liang’s choice to save his wife was wrong, since her cultivation skills were still only at basic formation and she would be helpless if she fell into the hands of an evil clan. Naturally she should be saved first, and Wei Liang’s choice had nothing to do with fooling around. The rationale behind Sister’s temper didn’t make a lot of sense.
Liu Qing Yin didn’t look at Mu Rong Chun’s gaze as she angrily spoke to him. “How can it be fine! When you barged into the formation, you were selfless. Don’t protect her!” Her slender and smooth hands pointed accusingly at Lin Jiu.
Lin Jiu slightly smiled.
Mu Rong Chun didn’t understand why Liu Qing Yin suddenly started talking about things from the past, and this matter didn’t make any sense at all. He hurriedly pressed Liu Qing Yin’s hand down, and apologized to Wei Liang and Lin Jiu. “She just cares too much. Please don’t take it to heart, Madam.”
He then turned to Liu Qing Yin. “Sister, you’ve misunderstood. I wasn’t protecting her, but all this while she was actually the one protecting me.”
“Mistress? Protecting you?” Liu Qing Ying said in disbelief as she glared at Mu Rong Chu. “Brother, you…you…”
Mu Rong Chun awkwardly coughed twice. Even if he knew that saying something like this would make Sister feel sad, this was the truth, and he could only speak the truth.
Liu Qing Yin smiled ruefully, but she bit her lips and stood aside without commenting further.
Today, she finally knew how valuable the elderly’s advice was—Girls had to appear weak, only then men would like them.
Lin Jiu…
Except for looking weak to gain sympathy, she didn’t know anything else! She took the Master away from her, and she even deceived her brother! Listen to what he just said! Even a man like Mu Rong Chun who was honest learned how to lie for her!
The hatred in Liu Qing Yin started to expand, tightly enveloping her heart, until it was so tight that she found it hard to breathe.
From her other side, Wei Liang spoke in a light tone. “You guys return to the sect on your own. I’ll stay here for half of the day. Go ahead, I’ll finish up.”
Qing Yun Xi had been quiet thus fur, but now he spoke up. “Master, are you looking for the seed to collect spirit and auras?
Wei Liang lightly looked at him without saying a word.
Upon hearing this, Liu Qing Yin lifted her face. Her dull gray eyes finally started to regain some energy. She had been born with an extremely cold body, and every start of the month, she would have a cold. Wei Liang always kept a look out for the spiritual plant with a fire element for many years, but the search had been fruitless.
After hearing that Wei Liang was staying behind to look for this, the flames in Liu Qing Yin’s heart reignited—Wei Liang never changed! He was still the same as before, secretly paying attention to her, secretly treating her well.
This Master, from the very start, he had always been a very awkward person!
The corner of Liu Qing Yin’s lips couldn’t help but lift. Wei Liang was like her light, and if this ray of light landed on her, she could not care for anything else. All other problems would not be problems anymore if she could be with him! She could even ignore the strict norms and rules, and what could a wife possibly do?!
Liu Qing Yin soon stabilized her emotions.
Lin Jiu realized that the hate coming from Liu Qing Yin suddenly stopped.
Now, she already had five of the lotus petals, the sixth one needed a greater amount of hatred. Liu Qing Yin’s rage for half the day shifted the lotus only slightly. It gave a soft shudder from time to time, and it looked like it still needed another three to five days to start to blossom.
Lin Jiu was actually thinking that a small grasshopper like Liu Qing Yin was also meat, and consuming it wouldn’t do any harm. However, when it seemed that Wei Liang was going to look for the seed, Liu Qing Yin’s hatred suddenly disappeared.
What sorcery was this?
Lin Jiu wracked her memory of the novel, and thought of a small storyline.
Liu Qing Yin was born with an extremely cold body. A few days of the month, she would feel discomfort. Wei Liang always kept a look out for the spiritual plant of a fire element for many years, but he hadn’t been able to find it. Right until the both of them fought, Wei Liang tried his best to get back a fire elixir for her and he secretly placed it in her fortress. Liu Qing Yin was so touched by this that they were on good terms again.
So…this seed could cure Liu Qing Yin’s cold feet?!
Lin Jiu’s heart slightly skipped a beat.
If Wei Liang really managed to find the seed…she just had to see if he would use it on her, or use it on Liu Qing Yin. Then she would know the male lead’s real feelings. Flirty words could be fake, but seeing someone’s actions revealed their true intentions. Results were the most important.
If Wei Liang was intentionally treating Lin Jiu good to trigger Liu Qing Yin, then he would look for a random excuse such as “I had no other choice” to give the seed to Liu Qing Yin.
The two ladies met each other’s gaze.
Lin Jiu realized that the look in Liu Qing Yin’s gaze was one of triumph for her and pity for the loser. The corner of her lips slightly rose with a clear sense of contempt and disdain.
Lin Jiu was suddenly upset.
She could give up on Wei Liang, but the book didn’t say this seed belonged to Liu Qing Yin!
It would depend on their respective abilities!
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
Wei Liang rushed to Qian Qi Pass with Lin Jiu.
He held on to her wrist, and with just a small tap on his feet, they travelled in a sharp arc and landed a dozen miles away. Once again, he lightly tapped to get some momentum, and flew by another dozen miles.
