Lin Yan (III)
Ji Wujiong returned to ng Qi’s side. Seeing the girl was still playing with the knife, he couldn’t help saying: “You are still looking at that knife? Let see. The devil aura had tempered it, and then…what kind of garbage is this?! Did you make this thing by randomly hamring an iron ore with the rock you pick on the side of the road? Since you hold it so preciously, I thought it was a rare spirit weapon. But it turns out to be…tsk! What a waste!”
Hearing this familiar tone, ng Qi was sure that Ji Wujiong was already alright. Ignoring his mockery, she put away the knife and took a look around. Without the sea of devil aura, the entire place seed a bit quiet and empty. The gate opened by the mysterious woman had disappeared, and the cliff was totally empty. It seed that the senior had been annoyed by her constant refusal. Now, she and Ji Wujiong could only rely on themselves to find a way to get out.
Following her gaze, Ji Wujiong also looked around: “What’s next? Another test?”
“I don’t know.” ng Qi shook her head. The mysterious senior indeed said that she had passed the final test. But now, she was not sure…
“Let’s look around first.” Without the sea of devil aura surrounding the cliff, the area they could explore had expanded greatly.
“Oh.” Ji Wujiong raised his eyebrows, “Then let’s go and look for the eye of the array.1 This illusion array…” He squinted his eyes: “..is quite interesting.”
“Okay.” ng Qi nodded.
“Young Daoist.” Suddenly, the woman’s gentle and warm voice sounded again. “You are fine.”
“Senior?” ng Qi was surprised.
“Co here,” The woman called softly.
Before ng Qi could react, Ji Wujiong had already taken a step forward, protecting her slender body behind him. He raised his eyebrows slightly and glared towards the sky: “Who are you? What do you intend to do?”
“Ji Wujiong!” ng Qi hurriedly stopped Ji Wujiong. This mysterious senior was obviously deeply connected to the powerhouse that built this barrier tens of thousands of years ago. She might even be the master of this place itself, and ng Qi didn’t want Ji Wujiong to offend her. Not to ntion, this senior had never tried to harm them and even repeatedly persuaded her to leave.
“It’s okay.” The voice said gently: “Young Daoist is open-minded, yet you are also firm in your belief. Having a junior like you makes very relieved. Moreover…” She suddenly paused.
“Co here.” The woman called again.
Ji Wujiong still looked at the sky warily. Knowing that he was worried about her, ng Qi gestured at him before she strode forward.
“Young Daoist, your na is ng Qi?”
“Yes.” ng Qi replied respectfully.
“My na is Lin Yan.”
“Lin…Lin Yan?!” ng Qi’s eyes suddenly widened in disbelief.
ng Qi was not alone. In the Apricot Forest, there were also many gasps of surprise. Too many things have happened today, shocking enough for everyone to rember it for life. But for dical cultivators, even ng Qi’s firm adherence to the way of a healer and Ji Wujiong’s extraordinarily powerful counterattack didn’t bring them as much surprise as the na Lin Yan.
Lin Yan…
Was she really that Lin Yan…
Sure enough, they heard ng Qi ask expectantly: “Excuse , Senior. Are you the Great Healer Lin Yan, who broke through the ninth rank of dical cultivation and entered the legendary Profound realm?”
“It’s .” The woman said with a smile: “Unexpectedly, soone still rembers my na.”
“Of course I do!” ng Qi raised her head. Her eyes were burning with excitent: “Senior’s cultivation base was already at the Great Ascension stage, but to save the people in six cities and eight towns in the Southern Realm, you voluntarily dissipated your cultivation base, falling from Great Ascension to Void Comprehending stage.2 Once falling, it would be difficult to restore the cultivation base in your lifeti, and there is no hope for ascending.”
“This junior has read about Senior Lin Yan in the book and was extrely touched. This junior wished to be born tens of thousands of years earlier, so I could be by Senior’s side and share so of your worries.”
“Haha.” Hearing the sincere tone, Lin Yan chuckled and said: “Just to share my worries?”
“Uh…” ng Qi blushed a little embarrassedly, “I also want to listen to Senior’s teachings from ti to ti.”
The recorded history about the prosperous era tens of thousands of years ago was actually incomplete. However, everyone knew that the era was also the golden age of dical cultivators. Countless geniuses were born during that ti. They exchanged views about Dao, discussed life and death, produced countless dicines and healing spells…Every ti ng Qi read about the era, she was full of yearning and admiration.
After several catastrophes, refinery cultivators were not the only ones who saw much of their inheritance and knowledge cut off. dical cultivators were also in the sa situation. Countless dicine formulas and spells were lost in the long river of history. Even after tens of thousands of years of hard work, dical cultivators were still far from reaching their forr glory.
ng Qi was not good at lying, let alone the other party was a great senior whom she admired so much. When Lin Yan asked, she answered straightforwardly. It was true that she would be happy to share Lin Yan’s worry. Even more so, she was more than eager to listen to Lin Yan’s teachings and took a glimpse at the glorious era that had been lost for tens of thousands of years.
“ng Qi.” Lin Yan’s voice seed to contain a smile, “Would you like to be my disciple?”
