Chapter 1344 - 1344 1303 Heading to Luo City

1344: Chapter 1303: Heading to Luo City 1344: Chapter 1303: Heading to Luo City “Ye Chongshan?

Hmm…

never heard of him.

Oh right, Brother Lu Chuan, I just broke through in cultivation!

At this rate, I’ll be able to reach the Nascent Soul Realm in no more than a year!”

“When that time comes, you better not forget what you’ve promised me!”

“Mm, don’t worry, I won’t go back on my word.”

Lu Chuan tugged at the corner of his mouth, thinking to himself that she was being far too naive.

Cultivation is like filling reservoirs one by one.

The reservoirs for the Foundation Establishment Realm and the Golden Core Realm are worlds apart in terms of capacity and the speed of filling.

How could it be so easy?

If cultivation were that simple, wouldn’t the world be filled with those who had reached Union Realm, and Spirit Dividing Realm become as common as stray dogs?

Of course, Lu Chuan didn’t dampen Tang Yurou’s confidence; the little girl indeed needed some motivation to push herself forward.

Since returning from Azure Dragon Academy, Lu Chuan had been investigating clues about Ye Chongshan.

Unfortunately, in the Tang family’s library, Lu Chuan didn’t find a single trace of information about Ye Chongshan.

Helpless, he decided to try his luck with Yurou.

As expected, Tang Yurou didn’t know anything.

It made sense—she wasn’t yet thirty years old.

So young, she naturally wouldn’t know about those old matters, nor would she have a reason to investigate them.

When Lu Chuan left Tang Yurou’s room, he happened to bump into Tang Shouli.

“Uncle, out for a walk?”

“Hmm, just had dinner and needed to stretch my legs.

Though I’ve long since practiced fasting, it’s only after a full stomach that one can feel alive.”

Tang Shouli chuckled, sizing Lu Chuan up.

Noticing that Lu Chuan was dressed neatly and breathing steadily, he asked curiously, “What’s the matter with you?”

“Oh, I came to ask Yurou about something.

That reminds me, Uncle, do you happen to know Ye Chongshan?”

“Ye Chongshan?

How did you come across that name?”

At those words, Lu Chuan’s eyes lit up.

“Uncle, your reaction—does that mean you do know him?”

Tang Shouli nodded and smiled.

“I know of him; he may not know me.

Back in the day, this man was quite famous.

For one, he was from the Ye Family of Luo City.

To put it this way, the Ye Family of Luo City is akin to the Tang family of Qingyang—extremely illustrious.”

“Got it.

Please continue.”

“This Ye Chongshan penned calligraphy that was truly magnificent.

I once had the privilege of admiring a work of his—bold strokes, his brushmanship as if guided by divinity, wielding the pen like a blade.

However, his greatest fame didn’t rest on his lineage or his spell techniques.

Instead, it stemmed from a curious tale.

Twenty years ago, Ye Chongshan fell in love with an immortal woman.

Their mutual affection was extraordinary and envied by many.

Until one day, another woman emerged, loudly proclaiming herself as Ye Chongshan’s wife and furiously battling that immortal.

In the end, she took Ye Chongshan away from Qingyang.

Oh, and that immortal woman was Nalan Xuan, the current headmaster of Azure Dragon Academy.”

Hearing this, Lu Chuan was utterly dumbfounded.

“So Ye Chongshan is a scumbag?

He already had a wife, yet still got involved with another woman?”

Tang Shouli cast a faint look at Lu Chuan, as though silently asking, How could you even have the gall to say that?

With so many women around you, aren’t you the one who has charmed my daughter senseless?

Lu Chuan clearly noticed Tang Shouli’s gaze and chuckled awkwardly.

But then again, does Nalan Xuan know about this?

If she does, doesn’t that make her… Ye Chongshan’s mistress?

Regardless, though, Ye Chongshan was the only lead Lu Chuan had at the moment.

Even if he already had a wife—or husband, for that matter—Lu Chuan still had to find him and drag him to see Nalan Xuan!

With this thought, Lu Chuan exhaled deeply and continued, “Uncle, do you know where Ye Chongshan is now?”

“I only know he returned to Luo City.

Beyond that, I’m not sure.

Is this person very important to you?”

“Extremely important.

I have to see him alive, or his corpse if he’s dead.

Even if he’s reduced to ashes, I need to snatch a pinch of bone dust before leaving!”

“Well then… he really is quite significant.

Too bad I don’t have much information.

If that’s the case, I suggest you go to Luo City yourself.

Once you arrive, you should be able to find him.”

“I suppose that’s the only option.”

Luo City, then…

Come to think of it, Lu Chuan had never visited Luo City before.

This journey was bound to take quite some time.

Lu Chuan could afford to wait, but Ji Weiwei couldn’t.

Her body was like a ticking time bomb, ready to detonate at any moment.

“Uncle, there’s one more matter I’d like to ask of you.”

“Go ahead.

As long as it’s within my capabilities, I’ll do my best to help.”

“It’s not too serious.

I simply want to ask you to escort someone to Cloud City for me.”

“Escort someone?

Who?

Is it Yurou?

That actually might be a good idea.

Sending that child to Cloud City could help her focus on her cultivation.”

“No, it’s not Yurou.

It’s another girl—Ji Weiwei, whom I brought back a few days ago.”

Originally, Lu Chuan had planned to wait until his current matters were resolved and then return to Cloud City together with Ji Weiwei.

However, it seemed that there wasn’t enough time anymore.

The effects of Thousand Faces on Ji Weiwei would only grow increasingly severe.

She must quickly start cultivation to gain strength and fend off the hidden dangers left by Thousand Faces; otherwise, Ji Weiwei could very well be driven insane!

This task could only be entrusted to Nanqing to take good care of her until Lu Chuan managed to clear up his current affairs and find an opportunity to return to Yuncheng.

It had been so long since he’d seen her, and Lu Chuan missed her greatly.

“No problem.

Once you’re ready, you can set out anytime.”

“I’ll make arrangements as quickly as possible.”

After bidding farewell to Tang Shouli, Lu Chuan sought out Ji Weiwei, whose condition was highly unstable.

The lingering influence of Thousand Faces surfaced once more, and Ji Weiwei fought against it with all her might, suffering extensive mental strain from the struggle and tug-of-war.

Lu Chuan, filled with pity, could only let Ji Weiwei fall into a deep slumber.

He left her a few elixir pills and two letters before setting off for Luo City.

The elixir pills were meant to induce short-term sleep without any side effects, to help Ji Weiwei endure the most difficult times.

As for the two letters: one was meant for Ji Weiwei, detailing Lu Chuan’s whereabouts and promising to visit her in Cloud City within a month.

The other was addressed to Mu Nanqing.

In it, Lu Chuan briefly explained the current situation, provided a timeline for his return to Cloud City, and included some tender words of affection.

In his letter, he wrote of how much he longed for her and how he would make their next meeting special.

While writing, Lu Chuan’s face turned red, and his heart beat wildly.

He could only imagine Nanqing’s reaction upon reading it—surely, her feelings would mirror his!

Once everything was ready, Tang Shouli arranged for personnel to escort Ji Weiwei to Cloud City.

Meanwhile, Lu Chuan boarded a plane bound for Luo City, determined to uncover the truth.

Lu Chuan hadn’t been joking earlier.

For the sake of the Human Emperor’s Pendant, if needed, he was fully prepared to capture Ye Chongshan and drag him to Nalan Xuan personally.
