The two matches of the four-person battle ended with unexpected results. The duel between Yun Che and Ling Jie gave people a visual feast, while the duel between Xia Qingyue and Ling Yun completely broke everyone's cognition. After the battle, those who witnessed the whole battle could not calm down for a long time.
In the ranking battle, a showdown between young people under the age of 20, a field actually appeared!
“Alas, it’s true that the younger generation pushes the older generation forward. We are old, and the era of the young has arrived ahead of time. Ling Yun alone has already made us old folks ashamed, and Xia Qingyue… hehe, in front of this little girl, I actually feel like I can’t raise my head.” An old man from a prosperous sect sighed.
(PS: Don’t ask me what the “Yangtze River” is! I have no idea!)
"This is also a good thing. At least it proves that the Xuanjie of our Blue Wind Empire can reach a higher level in the future."
“I don’t know where Frozen Cloud Immortal Palace found this disciple. After this ranking battle is over, the name ‘Xia Qingyue’ will shake the entire Blue Wind Empire, and the title of the number one of the younger generation will also change hands.”
"This little girl is undoubtedly the first person in history to make Tianjian Villa a foil. I believe Tianjian Villa must be feeling bad now."
All the discussions were focused on Xia Qingyue, but few people mentioned Yun Che, the other protagonist of tomorrow's battle. It was no wonder. Although the duel between Yun Che and Ling Jie was exciting, it was at least several levels lower than the duel between Ling Yun and Xia Qingyue. It was not easy for Yun Che to defeat Ling Jie, and he even broke his weapon. No matter what, he could not be a match for Xia Qingyue, who could defeat Ling Yun and use her domain.
Once Xia Qingyue's domain appeared, perhaps no one in the entire Earth Profound Realm would be her opponent. This ability to transcend realms and profound force rules was simply like a golden finger given by the heavens.
The people in Tianjian Villa are indeed feeling bad right now.
Having his body and meridians frozen by the domain, and injured by Xia Qingyue's blow, Ling Yun was also suffering from the aftereffects of casting the Sword Spirit clone. He had been unconscious for three hours and had not yet woken up. Ling Yun's face was pale in the coma, and a look of pain flashed across his brows... It was unknown whether it was because of the physical pain, or because he, who had never been invincible in the younger generation, could not bear the outcome of being defeated in public and bringing shame to Tianjian Villa.
"Yun'er hasn't woken up yet?" Ling Yuefeng walked over with a look of neither joy nor sadness on his face.
"Not yet. The sword spirit clone did not disappear on its own, but was defeated. Big brother's soul should have suffered considerable trauma, but he should wake up in an hour or two." Ling Jie said worriedly.
"Alas..." Ling Yuefeng sighed and closed his eyes: "In these two battles, you and your elder brother have exerted your full strength, and we have lost without any complaints. It seems that I have been too arrogant and have been sitting in a well and looking at the world from a narrow perspective these years... Is the era of dominance of our Tianjian Villa coming to an end..."
…………………………
As night fell, a waning moon hung high in the sky, silently casting down its bright moonlight. Under the moonlight, Xia Qingyue sat quietly beside the lotus pond, her hands resting on her cheeks, quietly looking at the incomplete moon in the sky, her eyes like still water, without any ripples, and no one knew what she was thinking about.
The cold wind blew gently, and a snow-white figure silently came to her side. Xia Qingyue lowered her eyes, stood up, and bowed gently: "Uncle Master."
Chu Yuechan nodded slightly, then stretched out her jade hand. In her palm was a medicinal pill that was as pure white as snow and emitted a moon-like light. "You used your domain today, and your vitality was slightly damaged. You can recover 60% at most tomorrow. If you take this, you can recover 100%."
“Ice Soul Rejuvenating Pill…” Xia Qingyue’s beautiful eyes were filled with surprise, but she did not take it: “Ice Soul Rejuvenating Pill is extremely precious and should not be wasted on Qingyue.”
"You are the pillar and hope of Frozen Cloud Immortal Palace in the future. The position of Palace Master will belong to you in the future. It is not a waste to use any precious things on you. Take it."
Chu Yuechan’s reputation and authority in Frozen Cloud Immortal Palace was second only to that of the Palace Master. Xia Qingyue no longer resisted, stretched out her hand to take it, and then swallowed it directly.
"Thank you, Uncle Master."
As the Ice Soul Revitalizing Pill entered her body, the surrounding night wind suddenly became chilly, sweeping up the vital energy of heaven and earth and rapidly pouring into Xia Qingyue's body, allowing her damaged vital energy and profound strength to recover at an extremely fast speed.
Chu Yuechan looked at Xia Qingyue for a while, her eyes changing in a complicated way, and she whispered, “Qingyue, in tomorrow’s battle, don’t underestimate your opponent, and don’t think you can win. In terms of strength, although he has hidden some, even if he releases all, he is far inferior to you. Within your domain, below the Tianxuan Realm, there is indeed no one who can be your opponent, but he has two things that you are far inferior to.”
Xia Qingyue raised her eyes, a hint of surprise flashing in her beautiful eyes like the bright moon: “Please give me some advice, Master.”
"First, it is his combat experience and extremely sharp five senses. His combat experience and reaction, judgment and decision in times of danger are far beyond your reach, not to mention me... Second, it is his perseverance and explosive power. Even if he is suppressed by you to the point where he has no power to fight back, don't think that he has lost. On the contrary, he may become even more terrifying in a desperate situation. The perseverance of an ordinary person can squeeze out the last bit of strength from the body, but he can squeeze out strength from his soul in a desperate situation... Tomorrow's battle will not only not be easy for you, but you may even be in a tough battle. This is not a lie, but my advice to you as your uncle-in-law."
"Even if you lose, I won't be too surprised."
Chu Yuechan's words filled Xia Qingyue's beautiful eyes with deep surprise.
Chu Yuechan's heart was as cold as ice, and her mood was cold. She rarely spoke, but every word she said was as precious as gold. It was the first time she heard this respected master say so many words at once. And all her words were giving a man an extremely high evaluation... an evaluation that was almost unreal.
If Chu Yuechan hadn't said it herself, she wouldn't have believed it at all.
"Yes, Uncle Master's words, Qingyue will remember them." Xia Qingyue said softly. Then, she hesitated for a moment, and asked, "Qingyue has a presumptuous question to ask Uncle Master..."
"Are you asking why I know him so well?" Chu Yuechan closed her eyes slightly.
"yes……"
Chu Yuechan turned around, and just when Xia Qingyue thought she was going to leave, she suddenly said in a deep voice: "In order to refine the 'Ice Heart Jade Liquid' for you, I left the palace to find three ice-type sky-profound beasts' profound pills. When I got the third profound pill, I accidentally became poisoned, and then I met him. He helped me get rid of the poison, and because of that, I owe him a favor."
Xia Qingyue opened her pink lips, her eyes trembling.
"I left the palace again two months after returning. After that, I disappeared for five months. During those five months, I was with him. I protected him to repay a favor, but in the end, he also saved my life. I was able to break through to the Emperor Profound Realm because of him."
“…” Xia Qingyue remained silent for a long time, totally daring not to believe what she heard.
Even Chu Yuechan herself didn't know why she told Xia Qingyue the secrets that she had kept in her heart for a lifetime. Perhaps, deep down in her heart, she felt an inexplicable sense of indebtedness to her... After all, Xia Qingyue was his wife, and she, as Xia Qingyue's uncle,...
"Don't tell these words to anyone, including your master."
“Yes.” Xia Qingyue nodded subconsciously, her mind in a daze.
"In exchange, can you answer one of my questions?"
Chu Yuechan had said a lot to her today, which made Xia Qingyue feel unreal. She nodded and said, “Master, please ask.”
Chu Yuechan looked back, her voice was cold but tender: "When I was teaching you Bing Xin Jue, I once probed your consciousness and found that you didn't really like cultivating Xuan, but you had a very high desire for Xuanli. Can you tell me your reason?"
Xia Qingyue was startled, a trace of imperceptible sadness flashed across her eyes, and her eyes quietly became hazy, even the ice spirits around her body became quiet.
“Because… my mother…” Facing Chu Yuechan’s honesty, she did not choose to remain silent or conceal the truth. Instead, she answered in a very soft, misty voice, “The encounter between my father and mother was legendary… When my father met my mother outside the city, she was covered in blood and was in a coma. After waking up, she had no memory and was very weak… Later, my mother married my father. Because of her weak constitution, it was very difficult for her to give birth to me, and I almost died…”
"When I was four years old, my mother suddenly recovered her memory... She left, and flew away like a fairy... When she left, she hugged me and my brother, crying bitterly. She said that if she didn't leave, it would bring disaster to our whole family. She said that the place she went to was called 'Realm of the Gods', a place we could never reach... After that, although my father remained strong, I often saw him crying secretly when he was alone. More than ten years have passed, and he has not remarried... My brother was ignorant at that time. When he grew up, what he envied most was that others had mothers..."
"The Realm of the Gods?" Chu Yuechan's brows tightened slightly, because with her experience, she had never heard of this name, "Do you know what place that is?"
Xia Qingyue shook her head absentmindedly: “I don’t know. I have checked many ancient books, but I have never found this name.”
"So, you pursue supreme profound power in order to reach a high enough level so that you can know the name, right?"
“Hmm…” Xia Qingyue nodded slightly, raised her snow-white face, and stared blankly at the waning moon in the sky: “I just want my family to be reunited. Although this goal may be very far away, I believe that as I go higher and higher, I will one day be able to see my mother’s figure…”
At this time, a deliberately light footstep approached from outside the courtyard, and then a clear voice came from the gate of the courtyard: "I am Xiao Kuangyu of the Xiao Sect, and I wish to see your 'Ice Moon Fairy' Xia Qingyue... I have no other intentions, but I just happen to have an ice jade and jade flower hairpin that is just right for the Ice Moon Fairy. Only by wearing it on the Ice Moon Fairy will it not be a waste of natural resources. Please..."
Before Xiao Kuangyu finished speaking, Chu Yuechan suddenly stretched out her hand and pushed. A stream of cold air that turned into substance suddenly surged and built a thick ice wall that was ten feet high at the entrance of the courtyard. The biting cold air made Xiao Kuangyu pale with fear. He quickly retreated. After his face twitched for a while, he dared not say anything. He could only grit his teeth, shake his hand, and leave in dismay.
In the entire Blue Wind Empire, the only one who could make the Second Young Master of the Xiao Sect so embarrassed was probably the Ice Cloud Immortal Palace.
