Chapter 50: Chapter 48: Liu Qingdai [Seeking Follow-up Reading]

Righteous Sun Sect.

This place was remote from the secular world. Lofty peaks rose, overlapping ranges upon ranges. Atop the mountains, celestial melodies drifted, as if surrounded by immortal qi. It was akin to Immortal Mountains adorned with exquisite pavilions and palaces with silver portals. Even the Divine Heaven Fairyland was probably not much different.

At the peak of a high mountain, by the cliff edge, a huge tree spread its sprawling roots. A young man in white robes sat cross-legged atop them. His features were stern, and even with his eyes shut tight, a firm determination shone through.

"Mu! Mu!"

Suddenly, a sprightly female voice called out.

Mu Yunqing opened his eyes to see a girl in a red dress bouncing into view before him.

The girl’s natural beauty was enhanced by her smooth, snow-white skin, and the dimples by her mouth formed a shallow smile. Without a hint of makeup, she already possessed a divine beauty. Her black hair was gathered up, with a sword hairpin slanted within it, adding a touch of valiant grace.

Seeing the visitor, Mu Yunqing also stood up and smiled, "Junior Sister, what brings you here?"

"Mu, I heard that a few days ago Elder Wang and Elder Xu went to ambush that demoness from the Woderous Sect. How could such an exciting event happen without me?" Liu Qingdai spoke, her autumn-water-like eyes revealing a hint of dissatisfaction.

"So, that’s what this is about." Mu Yunqing shook his head and chuckled. "Junior Sister, that demoness’s cultivation has reached the Divine Communication Realm. You, with your meager Mysterious Might Realm, would only cause trouble for Elder Wang and the others if you went along, wouldn’t you?"

"Can’t I just watch...?" Liu Qingdai pouted. "This is the second time! You’re still not taking me with you, and I wouldn’t cause any trouble."

Mu Yunqing looked helpless. Are you sure you wouldn’t cause trouble? If I took you, I fear you’d be taken hostage on the spot.

"Now Elder Wang avoids me every day, even though he promised to include me in any significant events."

"Even my father says he’ll take me to gain experience in the outer world, but then spends all his time in closed-door cultivation..."

"And there’s Elder Xu..."

"..."

Liu Qingdai started to chatter incessantly, giving Mu Yunqing a pounding headache.

This junior sister of mine, she has such a calm and well-behaved appearance, but her heart is anything but quiet. If she were just an ordinary disciple, it would be one thing. But she’s the Sect Master’s Daughter, so naturally, everyone dotes on her. And yet, they’re all afraid she’ll get into trouble, which is why no one has been willing to take her out for experience to this day.

"Alright, alright! In a little while, I’ll take you with me." Mu Yunqing, unable to bear her pestering any longer, finally made the promise.

"Really?" Liu Qingdai’s large eyes sparkled.

"Of course, really." Mu Yunqing extended his hand, wanting to ruffle Liu Qingdai’s hair.

Unexpectedly, she dodged him.

"Mu, I’m not a little kid anymore," Liu Qingdai pouted with annoyance.

Mu Yunqing felt a bit awkward, his hand frozen in place, murmuring sheepishly, "Ahem, right, Junior Sister, did you find out anything about the matter I asked you to inquire about?"

"What matter?" Liu Qingdai blinked, puzzled.

Mu Yunqing was speechless, his expression stiffening. "About the Sect Master candidate..."

"Oh, that..." Liu Qingdai suddenly remembered and teased, "It must be you, Mu. If no one with a Pure Yang Body appears, you are the most suitable successor."

Mu Yunqing was pleased, but then he coughed lightly and said modestly, "Well, I think Senior Brother Xie is more suited than I am."

"Hypocrite." Liu Qingdai glanced sideways with a scoff, obviously unbelieving.

"I’m off, Mu. Remember, you have to take me with you next time." Liu Qingdai waved her hand, summoned a white cloud, and gracefully flew away with a tip of her toes.

"Alright, I’ll definitely take you." Mu Yunqing smiled warmly until Liu Qingdai’s figure disappeared from sight.

His expression then darkened slightly.

Still trying to find someone with a Pure Yang Body, huh...

Mu Yunqing sighed and turned his gaze towards the direction of the Wonderous Palace, murmuring to himself.

Just then, his expression shifted, and he pulled out a Communication Jade Talisman. The jade talisman emitted a faint golden glow.

It’s from Miner... Mu Yunqing thought, sensing the message. His eyes sparkled. These few could indeed be of use to me.

Sigh... I actually wanted to be a good senior brother...

Wonderous Palace.

Time flew by, and another five days had passed.

Wen Zhixing had spent a full five days in the secret chamber. During that time, Ning Shan had only visited him once. Seeing that Wen Zhixing was recovering well, she left to prepare for her closed-door cultivation. Of course, she also instructed others to take care of Wen Zhixing. When his injuries were nearly healed, he could be allowed to leave.

[Fortune Points +6, Current Fortune Points: 32.]

[Current life-span: 133.]

In this period, Wen Zhixing had also collected six Fortune Fragments, spending one year of his life-span, and in return, he gained 6 Fortune Points.

Meanwhile, Wen Zhixing hadn’t been idle. Aside from his regular practice, he spent almost all his time cultivating.

[You have diligently cultivated, and the Igniting Blood Sword Skill is officially mastered.]

[You have diligently cultivated, and the Mind Capturing Skill is officially mastered.]

With the "Swordsmanship Genius" Talent blessing him, Wen Zhixing only needed one day to master the Igniting Blood Sword Skill. As for the Mind Capturing Skill, it took him four full days.

It’s about time. I can go out now. Wen Zhixing stood up and stretched his limbs.

In fact, the door to the secret chamber was never sealed. He could leave at any time he wished.

However, leaving too early would be too shocking for others. It wouldn’t do to recover *this* quickly.

Ning Shan had been quite considerate; she had even left clean clothes in the secret chamber.

Wen Zhixing smiled faintly, changed into the clothes, and pushed open the door of the secret chamber.

Sunlight fell from above, warm and soft. Wen Zhixing stretched and squinted at the world outside. The sun shone brightly, birdsong filled the air, and the flowers were fragrant. The coldest "deep winter" seemed to be passing by unnoticed.

He took a deep breath, savoring the fresh air.

Outside the secret chamber, two disciples stood guard, one on each side. When Wen Zhixing emerged, they both eyed him. In their eyes, Wen Zhixing’s complexion was still very poor.

"Thank you for your hard work. Goodbye," Wen Zhixing said with a polite smile, waving to the two disciples as he departed.

His mentality had changed again. Or rather, his state of mind had improved. This was a kind of strength that had increased, and naturally, his heart held less fear. Unconsciously, Wen Zhixing no longer regarded the Wonderous Palace as a fearsome beast. Or rather, he no longer feared this fearsome beast.

The two female disciples were slightly taken aback, not expecting Wen Zhixing to greet them.

"This Wen Zhixing is quite interesting," one of them said, slightly surprised as she watched him walk away.

"He is a bit different," the other one nodded in agreement.

"What’s different about him?"

"I don’t know, I couldn’t tell. You?"

"I don’t know either."

"..."

...

After leaving Wutong Peak, Wen Zhixing didn’t go straight back but instead began to wander within the Wonderous Palace.

When he had patrolled with Zhang Tiancheng before, he had only entered and exited some peripheral areas. Now he wanted to take this opportunity to look around.

However, before he had walked far, a Wonderous Palace disciple blocked his path.

"You, come with me. You’re going to help with concocting medicine," she said.

Wen Zhixing paused, then his hand was suddenly grasped.
