Chapter 118 How We Met
Long Ming was in deep thought when he left the mansion of Jiang Wanxue. Her words kept repeating in his head, making him even more and more confused.
" You look troubled, Junior Brother~"
Long Ming was surprised when he heard that voice. He turned around and saw it was Mu Qinglian.
" Ah, Senior Sister Mu, It's you."
" What happened? Got too tired by spending the night in Eternal Spring Tower?" Mu Qinglian's lips curled into a light snort.
" Well, Even if I spend many nights, No way I can get tired." Long Ming gave a cheeky reply.
" Anyway, I was here to check on some Inner Disciples. But I saw you got escorted by someone?" Mu Qinglian asked.
" It was Jiang Wanxue."
" Jiang Wanxue?" Mu Qinglian's eyelids shrunk when she heard that. " She invited you? Hmm, Did she ask you to join her Soaring Phoenix Group?"
" Well, She did ask me to join her in the expedition of Azure Sun Secret Realm. But what is this Soaring Phoenix Group?"
Mu Qinglian chuckled. " Well, The heavenly daos have been more active and the land is filled with much more True Qi than in previous centuries. It shows the signs of the new era, with genius like winds and clouds."
" Jiang Wanxue is also one of the top grade talents of this era. Even I am impressed with her power. However, she was too ambitious." Mu Qinglian spoke.
" Not to mention, the strangest thing is the attitude of the Ancient Jiang Family. As far as the information I have, Jiang Wanxue shouldn't even exist. However, after the Jiang Family announced her as their young miss, everything changed."
" Anyway, the Soaring Phoenix Group is something she created, a gathering of geniuses who could follow her lead. In return, they will get various resources according to their contribution."
" Wait, You are saying that Jiang Wanxue isn't from the Jiang Family?"
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt" Perhaps?" Mu Qinglian chuckled. Long Ming suddenly remembered when he tried to peek into the cultivation of Jiang Wanxue. A golden aura of a giang qilin blocked his Heavenly Revelation Eyes.
" Senior Sister Mu, Do you know who could have something like a guardian spirit of a qilin? A Golden Qilin?"
" Qilin?" Mu Qinglian was surprised. " Wouldn't that be the symbol of the Imperial Family of the Holy Qilin Empire?"
Suddenly, Long Ming's eyes widened in shock when he realized something.? Golden Qilin protecting Jiang Wanxue, powerful but hidden cultivation, gathering young talents…
" Senior Sister, What is the surname of the Imperial Family?"
" It's Qin."
" Jiang Wanxue… Qin Family…" Long Ming felt like he found a great secret.
' What if Jiang Wanxue is actually Qin Wanxue? What if she is also a princess of Holy Qilin Imperial Family?'
" Long Ming, What happened? You suddenly became silent."
" No… It's nothing." Long Ming sighed lightly and shook his head. " It's just that Jiang Wanxue is anything but good. Now I feel I made a good decision by rejecting her."
" Huhuhuh, Is that so?" Mu Qinglian chuckled. " I thought it would be very hard for you to reject any beauties."
Long Ming was speechless when he heard Mu Qinglian. " However, I heard something from her, Sister Mu. An interesting fact."
" Hmm?"
" I heard the chance of dying for Four Seasons Valley's disciples is much more high than any other sect inside the secret realm?"
Mu Qinglian's face turned stiff when she heard Long Ming, " I see… Sect Master was going to inform you about that too. I guess you just got this news early, huh?"
" Yes, What she said is right… However, she hid another thing." Mu Qinglian spoke.
" The Azure Sun Secret Realm was created by Empress Crimson Sky. However, it was also sealed by her with powerful restriction so only low level disciples could access it."
" The Secret Realm is divided into three areas. Outer, Inner, and Core Zone. It's true that many disciples of Four Seasons Valley died mysteriously, but it only happened in the Core Zone and deep of Inner Zone."
" As long as most of our disciples stay in the Outer Zone, everything will be alright."
Long Ming was a bit relieved when he heard that. " But, I don't think there is anything significant in the Outer Zone, yes?"
Mu Qinglian let out a sigh. " Indeed, There Outer Area is the safest, yet the least yielding area. The resources in the Inner and Core Zone are more than a hundred times greater than the Outer Zone."
" Well, Fortune comes with dangers, huh?" Long Ming sighed with Mu Qinglian. " Don't worry, Sister Mu. We will get better results this year."
Mu QInglian's eyes brightened when she heard Long Ming. " Haha, I like your confidence. I guess Jiang Wanxue can't really instill fear inside you, huh?"
" Beside, I am happy that you didn't back off." Mu Qinglian smiled. " You know, after you came to the sect, everyone's spirit has been lifted. No one is feeling that the Four Season Valley is a dying well."
Long Ming looked at Mu Qinglian's face as he got stunned for a moment. Her lips, her pearl like teeth, she looked absolutely goregeous.
" Hmm? Why are you gawking at me like this?"
" Ah…Senior Sister, Have someone ever told you that you look extrememly beautiful when you smile?" Long Ming spoke. " You should smile even more often."
" Yo-You!! You are flattering too much!" Mu Qinglian turned away her face, her cheeks flushing bright red.
[ Ding! Host gets 1000 AP!]
Long Ming smiled when he saw that.
" Senior Sister, Can you tell me something?" Long Ming looked at Mu Qinglian. " Actually, How we even met?"
" Huh? Did I not tell you?" Mu Qinglian was a bit taken aback. Long Ming chuckled, " Well… It's not like you didn't tell. But, I feel many parts of my memories are still missing."
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmMu Qinglian was surprised when she heard Long Ming. " Come with me. This place is too crowded."
As both of them reached a tea shop, Long Ming and Mu Qinglian sat beside a table and ordered some light tea and snacks. She waved her hands and covered the table with a shield of spiritual qi.
" Well, That day, I found a hidden cultivation cave during my journey." Mu Qinglian looked at Long Ming and started to speak.
" I found a Ten Thousand Year old Glazed Snow Flower which can improve my phy…Ahem, My cultivation. However, when I was in deep cultivation… I got ambushed."
Long Ming's eyes widened when he heard that. Mu Qinglian got ambushed? That was really an absurd thing, knowing Mu Qinglian got her encounter by chance, but she still got attacked?
" Well, I tried my best and killed as many as I could. Not to mention, the Royalgrade treasure I got from Master also helped me. However, those bastards were also powerful. I got seriously injured and tried to escape, but those assassins didn't let me go and chased me."
" Then?"
A faint smile appeared on Mu Qinglian's lips as she looked at Long Ming. " Then, a meteor fell from the sky. I don't know how can it contain such chaotic and berserk energy, but it contained a tremendous might."
" It fell on my attackers, killing them completely. Like, a blessing from heaven itself, Protecting me from my death."
" When the flames and enery subsided, I looked at the crater and found a human shaped pitch black rock."
" The rock cracked, and a handsome young man was lying naked inside it." Mu Qinglian laughed. " And, he got a tattoo of Black and White Spider Lily on his arm."
Long Ming was shocked when he heard that. He couldn't even remember when and how he got transmigrated to here. However, listening to Mu Qinglian's story, he was even more shocked.
Falling like a meteor from sky? Covered with a dense and chaotic energy? He couldn't remember anything at all.
" That's why I always had my caution around you. When I realized that your heart is still beating, I decided to keep you with me and interrogate you later. However, the chaotic energy around you helped me to completely refine the Glazed Snow Flower and improved my cultivation."
" You didn't open your eyes for several days, till we reached the Four Seasons Valley." Mu Qinglian spoke. " Although I tried to treat you harshly at first. It was solely because I didn't believe that I could be saved by you in such a way. Deep down in me, I was afraid that you were a trap for me and sect."
" However, There was also a part of mine who was assured that you are anything but that."
" Meeting of you and me is something like a… thread of fate tying us together."
Long Ming also laughed lightly when he heard that." Well, I guess I also believe that."
Soon, the dishes and tea arrived as Mu Qinglian and Long Ming enjoyed the time together. Long Ming realized that Mu Qinglian was still a girl despite being the Saintess of Four Seasons Valley.
' Haah, She is really carrying a huge burden.'
