Chapter 146: Chapter 122: (Revised) Untitled_2
After speaking, Yuu Qiuqi left gracefully and decisively.
Yun Shang hurriedly opened her storage bag and saw two Foundation Establishnt Elixirs inside, along with so upper-level pills for ridian protection and nurturing fundantal vitality.
She took out the letter and read it carefully, covering her mouth as tears welled up, each word loosening the knot in her heart.
"So it wasn’t because of
that you had to go, it wasn’t my fault that you..."
Yun Shang wiped away her tears, solemnly putting the letter away and pressing it against her chest.
She went to practice seclusion with the elixirs, led by the old steward cultivator to the best cultivation room.
Yun Shang felt strange, and the old cultivator said the cultivation rooms were in high demand, with only this one left.
After closing the door for Yun Shang, the old cultivator ca out and saw Yuu Qiuqi standing at the end of the corridor, cupping his hands in thanks.
Afterwards, Yuu Qiuqi quietly sat in ditation outside Yun Shang’s seclusion room, guarding it without moving an inch.
The old cultivator watched from afar and sighed, "She helps her resolve her heart’s knot, but who will resolve her knot? Soone who should have long reached Core Formation is delayed here; it’s all cause and effect, all heart demons!"
...
On Heavenly Gang Peak, reconstruction of earth and wood was underway.
"Master, save !"
Hee Wangchen hurriedly rushed to the hall at the peak’s top, banging on the door and shouting.
"Senior Sister Tang made a mistake in setting up the array and is about to be trapped inside, Master, co out and take a look, save us—"
Not far away, the servant repairing the houses whispered.
"Here he goes again, three to five tis a day, cos shouting every day."
"Yesterday afternoon, he was shouting about how evil cultivators breached the Heavenly Interence Sect, asking True Monarch Fuyi to co out and save him."
"Well, yesterday, he even sared himself with chicken blood; I almost believed him; it scared
half to death."
"Sigh, True Monarch Fuyi locked himself in the hall without coming out; the once peerless first True Monarch of Array Dao might never recover."
Unable to call out True Monarch Fuyi, Hee Wangchen hung his head in frustration, sitting at the door talking to himself.
"Master, today I officially started learning the Green Wave Heaven Net Array; I’m familiar with the array map and points, but after setting it up many tis, it still doesn’t work. The first failure was when placing the third array point..."
Hee Wangchen rambled on, from high noon to sunset, talking about the sa thing repeatedly, drawing all over the ground with stones, all array maps.
"...I just can’t understand, I did nothing wrong at each point, why does it still fail in the end? Master, am I really that dumb? I...hm!"
A piece of paper flew from the hall’s door gap, slapped onto Hee Wangchen’s face, and he grabbed it, seeing the array map with corrections in vermillion pen marking his previous errors.
Seeing it was from his master’s notes, Hee Wangchen was overjoyed.
"Master, I understand now! I’ll go and redo the array, and if I have any problems, I’ll co ask again!"
"Senior Sister Tang, my master replied; she replied to , hahaha."
Hee Wangchen was jumping about in excitent, running past the servants finishing their chores.
"It seems True Monarch Fuyi isn’t too dispirited. You guys, want to go to the eatery for a drink? The newly released Sangluo Wine from Huaxi Valley will refresh and relieve fatigue; after a drink and so sleep, you’ll feel completely invigorated."
"Let’s go, drink so wine."
...
In the Outer Sect eatery, Qii Yue furrowed her brows tightly, stepping out quickly from the back hall.
A plump cultivator followed behind, full of smiles, addressing her as Senior Sister despite clearly having a higher cultivation than Qii Yue.
"Dear Senior Sister Qii, could you generously share so of Huaxi Valley’s spiritual vegetables, fruits, spiritual fish, and bird at with our Heavenly Brave Peak eatery?"
"Most of us at Heavenly Brave Peak are Inner Sect martial cultivators who eat a lot, and everyone says the things from your Huaxi Valley strengthen the body; now everyone is coming to the Outer Sect eatery, and our eatery is about to close down."
Having been pestered by Zhang Biao for three days and blocked wherever she went, Qii Yue was really fed up.
"I’ve said it many tis, Huaxi Valley has a contract with the Inner Affairs Hall to prioritize supplying the Outer Sect eatery; there are several other peaks requesting increased supplies, too, and we really can’t spare more."
Zhang Biao offered Qii Yue Spirit Stones, "Senior Sister Qii, with food, there’s always loss during harvesting and transport, can’t you think of sothing..."
Qii Yue was furious, "You! Senior Sister Jiang has been kind to , I would never do anything to betray her, if you continue, I’ll..."
"Yue!"
Qii Ming suddenly appeared, quickly walking to Qii Yue’s side, calmly speaking to Zhang Biao, "My sister is young and ignorant, no offense intended."
Qii Yue glared at Qii Ming, who shielded her behind him.
"Huaxi Valley has always been under Senior Sister Jiang’s charge, and True Monarch Jiuchuan doesn’t interfere. My sister wouldn’t dare defy orders. She is currently in seclusion at the Supre Elder’s place; if Senior Brother is anxious, why not go to Heavenly Leisure Peak..."
Zhang Biao’s face stiffened, and he hurriedly waved his hands.
Qii Ming smiled and said, "In that case, could Senior Brother wait a few days until Senior Sister Jiang exits seclusion? My sister will report this matter to Senior Sister Jiang at the first opportunity. What do you think, Senior Brother?"
Seeing this, Zhang Biao could only nod, reminding Qii Yue to report it at the earliest.
Qii Ming agreed on behalf of Qii Yue. Once Zhang Biao left, Qii Yue imdiately angrily said, "Since when do you ddle in Huaxi Valley’s affairs?"
Qii Ming sighed, patiently explaining, "Better to face King Yan than the little demons who are hard to deal with. Cultivators and common people aren’t much different; Senior Sister Jiang is in the lilight now, and many people are waiting to watch her fall. At such tis, you can’t get carried away by others’ flattery."
"They flatter you because of Senior Sister Jiang; now more than ever, you should act prudently, discreetly, and avoid offending people or giving others leverage against you. Otherwise, how will you bear the responsibility of implicating Senior Sister Jiang?"
"You depend on her for cultivation, so you mustn’t do anything that damages her reputation or interests. You’re always ticulous and thodical in handling interior affairs, but in external dealings, you’re young and should speak less and observe more, and learn more."
Hearing Qii Ming’s words, Qii Yue knew her brother was concerned about her. Carefully examining Qii Ming, she found him different than before.
Previously, he was always gloomy, hiding in the shadows, but standing in the sunlight now, Qii Yue realized her brother had matured significantly, looking very reliable.
Thinking of Lin Xiangtian’s matter, Qii Yue awkwardly asked, "Have you...found any leads?"
Qii Ming smiled bitterly, "I haven’t yet, the matter with Lin Xiangtian caused quite a stir, and True Monarch Jiuchuan personally intervened. No one dares to take in the servants and apprentices around him for fear of being implicated, so I’m currently idle, focusing on cultivation for a while first."
Qii Yue felt a stirring in her heart, biting her lip, but ultimately didn’t speak, only looking towards Heavenly Leisure Peak.
"It’s been nine days since the small competition ended; when exactly will Senior Sister Jiang return? There are still many matters in Huaxi Valley waiting for her decision."
Qii Ming also gazed towards Heavenly Leisure Peak, "With the Supre Elder’s enlightennt, the longer the ti, naturally the better it is."
