Chapter 17: Chapter 17: Junior Li Hengsheng
"Wait, wait, let
take another look." The red-bearded man scratched his head, staring at the chessboard, pondering hard how to turn the ga around.
"There’s no need to think anymore." Xue Qianbai quietly picked up the teacup, steam rising from it, standing out in the icy world.
"Your purpose for stalling ti has been achieved, and the person has already left."
Xue Qianbai took a sip. "If you don’t give it to , I really will draw my sword."
"Hehe, it seems I really lost." Chu Ba grinned, stood up, and took out a letter: "Here you go, this contains the secret information of the Qinyang Dynasty over the past half year, and there’s a part concerning the Eldest Princess."
After saying this, Chu Ba smiled and said, "Then I’ll be leaving now."
Xue Qianbai didn’t respond, ignoring Chu Ba’s words.
Only then did Chu Ba turn and leave.
Chu Ba’s arrival used the intelligence of the Qinyang Dynasty to tie down Xue Qianbai.
If it had been soone else, Xue Qianbai would have drawn his sword and slain them, but Chu Ba’s strength was formidable. Although not a match, acting in this Dao Mountain Ancient Land could easily harm the innocent.
Things outside the sect Xue Qianbai naturally knew about; with Xu Muhai and the others, Xue Qianbai wasn’t overly worried.
If it truly couldn’t be controlled, Xue Qianbai would naturally take action.
But at this mont, what Xue Qianbai was more concerned about was the intelligence of the Qinyang Dynasty.
Or rather, the person Xue Qianbai was more concerned about was the Eldest Princess of the Qinyang Dynasty.
After finishing reading the intelligence in hand, Xue Qianbai carefully read the part about the Eldest Princess once more.
Then Xue Qianbai took out a piece of paper and wrote four large characters.
The Monarch Cos to Dance.
After writing these four words, Xue Qianbai looked up, his eyes seeming to pierce the sky, and from the depths of the ice and snow, a snow-white white雕(The Spirit Bird) flew out.
The large white雕 landed directly in front of the snow pavilion.
"Bai Ling, I entrust this to you." Xue Qianbai placed the letter in a bamboo tube, then tied it to Bai Ling’s leg. Bai Ling looked at Xue Qianbai, flapping its massive wings, taking off into the air.
Flying towards the distance.
The sun set over the western mountains.
The disciples of Dao Mountain Ancient Land finally returned.
Earlier, in a fierce battle, the four Peak Masters of Dao Mountain Ancient Land acted together, along with hundreds of disciples at the Postnatal Realm, and Minghong State and Yin Shi Tower didn’t gain any advantage.
Fortunately, only Lady Congyun ca alone from Yin Shi Tower, but many people ca from Minghong State.
Almost all fell here.
Jiang Hu escaped using the Painting Treasure.
And Lady Congyun also left gravely injured.
Adhering to the principle of not pursuing a desperate enemy, the four Peak Masters didn’t continue the chase.
At dusk, as the sun set, everyone finally returned to Dao Mountain Ancient Land.
All along the way, Li Hengsheng said nothing, becoming exceptionally silent.
Disciples who usually got along well with Li Hengsheng ca up to talk to him, but he ignored them, and they could only comfort Li Hengsheng, saying there would be a day to et Lu Qiaoqiao again.
Though they said this, they knew in their hearts the hope was slim.
Where had Lu Qiaoqiao gone?
It was the Cloud Wasteland.
It was the Long Night Ancient Kingdom, the land of the Ghost Race.
The hope of eting again in this lifeti was near zero.
Though they didn’t know why Lu Qiaoqiao was chosen, she had beco the saintess of the Long Night Ancient Kingdom.
And Li Hengsheng was just a servant disciple of Dao Mountain Ancient Land, destined to beco people from two worlds with an ever-growing gap in the future.
Returning to Dao Mountain Ancient Land, all the disciples breathed a sigh of relief.
So greedily gulped the air, feeling the reassuring taste.
In the distance, many disciples from Wanzai Peak ca out to greet them, as if already knowing what had happened to them outside.
Li Hengsheng saw Xu Yueyue among the crowd. Xu Yueyue’s gaze was also on Li Hengsheng, but her eyes were red, as if she had just cried.
"I want to control my own destiny, I don’t want to be manipulated by anyone anymore." Li Hengsheng murmured: "Junior Sister Lu, we will et again, the answer you seek, when that day cos, I will let the entire Cangyuan Realm hear it."
"Everyone, go back and rest well." At this ti, a Peak Master ca out, his gaze finally landing on Li Hengsheng: "Co with ."
"Yes." Li Hengsheng knew this person was the Peak Master of Punishnt Peak, nad Li Zhi, in charge of the punishnt of Dao Mountain Ancient Land’s disciples.
The surrounding people whispered, not knowing why the Peak Master of Punishnt Peak was looking for Li Hengsheng.
"Co with
back to Punishnt Peak, I have questions for you." Li Zhi said calmly.
Lu Qiaoqiao was taken away, and both Destiny Star Hall and Yin Shi Tower fought desperately for her, even the rarely erging Long Night Ancient Kingdom got involved, making them eager to know what was special about Lu Qiaoqiao.
And obviously, Lu Qiaoqiao had a good relationship with Li Hengsheng, and perhaps clues could be found from him.
Crossing the cable bridge, not only Li Hengsheng and Li Zhi, but also the other five Peak Masters who acted today ca along.
They too were eager to know the truth.
Li Zhi directly took Li Hengsheng to his cave dwelling.
Li Hengsheng curiously looked around, finding the environnt excellent, feeling even the True Essence of heaven and earth so abundant, cultivating here would undoubtedly be faster.
This also fird Li Hengsheng’s resolve that remaining in Wanzai Peak was impossible if he wanted to beco strong.
He must leave there.
All six Peak Masters took their seats.
Li Zhi didn’t waste any ti, directly asking Li Hengsheng about Lu Qiaoqiao’s identity.
Li Hengsheng didn’t hide anything, recounting Lu Qiaoqiao’s background.
But after hearing it, the six showed strange expressions.
What Li Hengsheng said wasn’t anything special, just information that Dao Mountain Ancient Land could find.
"These Ghost Races have only recently appeared in Minghong State, so just recount everything that’s happened to Lu Qiaoqiao recently." Xu Muhai prepared to find clues from this.
"Not just that, but whoever Lu Qiaoqiao has been in contact with recently, tell us everything you know, that..." A slightly chubby Peak Master pointed at Li Hengsheng and then frowned: "I still don’t know your na."
"Disciple Li Hengsheng." Li Hengsheng said, clasping his fists.
"Li Hengsheng?" Hearing the na, Xu Muhai’s pupils shrank.
So he was Li Hengsheng?
No wonder they hadn’t found him, he was working as a servant at Wanzai Peak.
Was he the mysterious son of Li Changqing?
But how could he be so ordinary?
He was expected to be brilliant, but turned out to be just another ordinary person.
But Xu Muhai kept silent, saying nothing.
Others didn’t notice Xu Muhai’s strangeness, all looking at Li Hengsheng.
Li Hengsheng had to recount everything that had happened recently, speaking with great detail, up to receiving the package from his father, ntioning Lu Qiaoqiao took the iron token wanting to make it a keepsake.
"Wait."
Li Zhi said with a strange expression: "That iron token, you said it had writing on it, what did it say?"
"Qi." Li Hengsheng said truthfully.
