Chapter 1314: Chapter 1314: Have You Heard?

The Roufu sisters huddled around Fang Bai, like a group of fangirls in the secular world, after expressing their gratitude, they held their hands to their hearts, looking at Fang Bai with faces full of adoration, their eyes sparkling with tiny stars.

Although the Yunnv Sect where the Roufu sisters belonged to had many Innate Experts, those Innate Experts were all women over a hundred years old, and each one of them was serious and rigid, hardly smiling, which made the Roufu sisters respect and fear them, daring not to get too close.

However, Fang Bai was a young, handsome, and powerful man, whose smile was as warm as the sunshine, making people feel the warmth of spring and immensely approachable. The Roufu sisters had met some talented male martial artists during their previous cultivation journeys, but none could hold a candle to Fang Bai.

Just as a beautiful young girl could make men lose their senses, a remarkable young man like Fang Bai was also an object of admiration among the girls.

With shy yet bold expressions, the Roufu sisters lifted their pretty little faces, looking at Fang Bai, their expressions intoxicated and full of blushing fantasies in their minds.

Their current expressions, in the secular world, would be those of a group of fanatics.

Being surrounded by four tender and pleasant beauties, who were all looking up at him with adoration, would be considered a delightful situation by any man, and Fang Bai was no exception.

However, Fang Bai had many beauties in his past life and had seen a great deal, so naturally, he would not be intoxicated and forget himself. Thinking of the Roufu sisters’ sect, the Ruoshui Palace, he had a thought and lightly coughed, saying, "I’d like to inquire about something..."

"What is it?"

The Roufu sisters perked up, jostling to get closer to Fang Bai, their big eyes looking at him with a mixture of confusion and curiosity, in an eager "ask me, quickly ask me" manner.

Fang Bai smiled and said, "You are disciples of the Ruoshui Palace, right?"

"Yes."

The sisters nodded vigorously.

Although they were told not to reveal their identities lightly before leaving their palace for training, Fang Bai was their life-saving benefactor, and their gratitude towards him was greater than anything else; naturally, they would not hide anything from Fang Bai.

"The current Palace Master of the Ruoshui Palace is named Zhou Qingyan?"

Fang Bai continued to ask.

"Eh? How do you know the name of our Palace Master?"

Roufu was surprised, blinking her big eyes as she asked in return.

The Ruoshui Palace was a hidden Innate Sect that seldom interacted with the outside world. If its disciples went out for cultivation journeys, they would usually conceal their identities. Thus, although the True Martial Realm had countless martial artists, very few knew of the Ruoshui Palace, and even fewer knew the name of the current Palace Master.

Zhou Qingyan became the Palace Master of the Ruoshui Palace and had not left it for decades. Given that Fang Bai was only in his twenties and was a Loose Cultivator, how could he possibly know that Zhou Qingyan was the current Palace Master of the Ruoshui Palace?

Not being able to figure out the answer, Roufu felt amazed.

"I don’t only know the name of your current Palace Master, but I also know quite a few things about your Ruoshui Palace..." Fang Bai said with a mysterious smile, and then he asked, "Have you heard of a person named Zhuge Dingtian?"

"Zhuge Dingtian? No..."

The Roufu sisters thought hard, tilting their heads, then shook their heads in unison.

"Really haven’t?"

Fang Bai paused and was a bit surprised.

"Really haven’t!"

The Roufu sisters thought carefully once again, and then shook their heads with certainty.

Fang Bai nodded, seemingly coming to a realization.

Zhuge Dingtian was Zhou Qingyan’s beloved daughter Zhou Yuruo’s Martial Dao companion, and also an Innate Expert. Such a person should be well-known by all disciples of the Ruoshui Palace, yet why do the four Rou Fu sisters not know of Zhuge Dingtian’s existence?

Could it be that the affair between Zhuge Dingtian and Zhou Yuruo was concealed by Zhou Qingyan, to the extent that the younger generation of disciples is unaware of it?

Fang Bai furrowed his brows in thought, feeling that this was indeed a possibility.

Through the strand of information in Li Chenzhou’s Divine Sense, Fang Bai knew that Zhou Qingyan turned love into hate, loathing all men in the world, including Li Chenzhou. She strongly opposed the love between her daughter Zhou Yuruo and Zhuge Dingtian. As a result, her daughter eloped with Zhuge Dingtian and gave birth to a girl, who was Zhuge Lian.

Perhaps Zhou Qingyan regarded this incident as a tremendous shame. In her anger, she forbade the palace’s disciples from discussing it, attempting to erase this scandal.

As time went by, it became less surprising that the later generations of disciples like the four Rou Fu sisters, who joined the Ruoshui Palace later, were unaware of this incident.

"What about Zhou Yuruo? Have you heard of her?"

Fang Bai inquired further.

The four Rou Fu sisters continued shaking their heads.

"And Zhuge Lian? You haven’t heard of her either?"

Fang Bai continued to ask.

"No."

As Fang Bai expected, the four Rou Fu sisters shook their heads again.

Zhou Qingyan was ruthless enough to destroy a loving couple, driving away her own daughter. It was unlikely she would care about her granddaughter Zhuge Lian.

In fact, Zhuge Lian had grown up within the third-rank sect, the Yunnv Sect, in Tiansheng Continent. She only saw her mother and had no memory of her father, much less did she know that her grandmother was Zhou Qingyan—the current Ruoshui Palace Master, one of the strongest Innate Sects of the age.

"Then Li Chenzhou...you certainly don’t recognize him either, right?"

Fang Bai sighed and asked casually.

Li Chenzhou was once deeply loved by Zhou Qingyan, but later became the man she loathed the most. As it involved her own privacy, Zhou Qingyan would definitely not permit any disciple in the Palace to mention this matter, and so the younger disciples would know even less about it.

The four Rou Fu sisters, unsurprisingly, shook their heads again, the confusion in their eyes growing deeper, wondering why Fang Bai was asking them these questions.

"Brother Li still wonders if he can reconcile with Zhou Qingyan and reignite their former bond! Yet he does not realize just how terrible a woman’s grudge accumulated over decades can be. If he meets with Zhou Qingyan, all explanations might be seen as unreasonable excuses. This broken mirror... I fear it will be difficult to mend! Regardless, I still wish them well."

Fang Bai subconsciously turned his head, looking towards Li Chenzhou’s direction in the distance.

On Fang Bai’s side, Dongguo Zongheng had already been slain, while on Li Chenzhou’s side, there were still sounds of Essence Energy collisions booming, accompanied by Xuan Tianji’s frustrated and furious yelling.

"Brother Li sure knows how to play!"

When Fang Bai spread his Divine Sense Diffusion and "saw" the situation over there, he couldn’t help but chuckle silently.

Maybe after spending over a decade in the Essence Stone Vein underground, Li Chenzhou wanted to get reacquainted with his Martial Arts Techniques, treating Xuan Tianji as a sparring partner. Even though he wasn’t exerting his full strength, he still played Xuan Tianji like a top.

Poor Xuan Tianji, a Sect Master of a powerful first-rank sect, was teased by Li Chenzhou like a monkey, full of fury and shame, desperately wanting to end his life, yet utterly at Li Chenzhou’s mercy. He could not even choose to die, screaming frantically and his old face turning red as he spouted several mouthfuls of blood.

"The evildoer has been vanquished; take care of yourselves."

Fang Bai discreetly left a trace of his own Essence Energy on the four Rou Fu sisters, so he could later trace this energy to find the Ruoshui Palace, in the hope of finding a clue to Zhou Yuruo, Zhuge Lian’s mother.

If he could help Zhuge Lian find her mother, Fang Bai would consider his promise made to Zhuge Dingtian’s remains in the Secular World as truly fulfilled.
