"Ling Yan'er?"
The woman in black was none other than Lu Ziqi. After avenging her disciple, she couldn't help but come down the mountain to visit her deceased disciple. Unexpectedly, she encountered a woman nearby.
This woman looked remarkably like his apprentice; in terms of figure, appearance, and temperament, they were about 70-80% alike.
This inevitably saddened Lu Ziqi. She knew, of course, that her apprentice was dead, and although the person in front of her looked very similar, he was not him.
"Why are you here all alone? You have considerable talent; may I ask which school or sect you belong to?"
Although Lu Ziqi sensed a familiar aura from the woman, she didn't ask any further questions, only finding it somewhat strange.
Ling Yan'er calmly replied, "In response to your question, senior, I come from the Ten Thousand Swords Sect of the Great Qin Empire. I traveled here and found the environment quite pleasant, so I decided to stay temporarily. Of course, this is not a long-term plan! It's just that I don't have anything urgent to attend to right now."
This answer made Lu Ziqi frown slightly, as if it were something she had heard before.
"The Myriad Swords Sect of the Great Qin Empire? That's right, my little disciple seems to come from this sect! Could it be that they've come looking for him?"
Lu Chen's background was naturally investigated thoroughly. After all, with the Xuanwu Academy's capabilities, investigating the identity and background of someone like him would be effortless.
Lu Ziqi was fully aware of this as well.
What I didn't expect was that I would run into Lu Chen's fellow disciple here. What a coincidence!
Lu Ziqi didn't have much doubt, and suddenly the idea of taking on a disciple arose in her mind.
This idea took hold and couldn't be stopped.
"I see you have considerable talent. Would you be interested in joining my Xuanwu Academy and becoming my disciple?"
Lu Ziqi suddenly had a strange feeling. Perhaps it was a deliberate arrangement by heaven. She had failed to protect her disciple back then, and now that she had avenged her disciple herself, heaven had sent another person.
The two people look so alike.
Is this really just a coincidence? After Lu Ziqi finished speaking, she quietly looked at Ling Yan'er.
Ling Yan'er was initially confused, but after hearing about the Xuanwu Academy, she was shocked and incredulous.
"May I ask who you are, senior?"
Her shock came from two aspects. First, she was surprised that the person in front of her was actually a senior expert from the Xuanwu Academy.
On the other hand, she was shocked by the arrangement made by her master, the Flower Fairy.
So, it really is that way to enter the Xuanwu Academy.
"Since I have offered to take you as my disciple, I am naturally a member of the Xuanwu Academy. If you are willing to become my disciple, then come with me. If you are not willing, I will not force you."
Lu Ziqi finally resolved her inner conflict, and a rare smile appeared on her face.
Ling Yan'er was immediately flattered and said, "Of course I'm willing! The Xuanwu Academy is very famous, and I have long admired it, but I have never been able to enter it."
"Alright, come with me."
Lu Ziqi's smile grew even brighter.
Ling Yan'er immediately knelt down and bowed, saying, "Yan'er greets Master."
"Okay, okay."
With a wave of her hand, Lu Ziqi helped Ling Yan'er up and then carried her into the sky. In no time, they returned to their palace in the Xuanwu Academy.
"Little guy, get over here right now. Your master has brought back a junior sister for you. Come and meet her."
At that moment, Lu Chen suddenly heard a voice in his mind. The voice was so familiar that it could only be Lu Ziqi.
"What? Junior sister?"
Lu Chen was startled. He naturally knew that as the seventh elder of the Xuanwu Academy, he was allowed to travel and take on disciples.
But to his surprise, he had just accepted this disciple, and the entrance trial of Xuanwu Academy had just ended, when he accepted another disciple.
What exactly is Lu Ziqi thinking? At the same time, he was also very curious about who this newly accepted junior sister was.
So, Lu Chen headed to the Elder Hall where Lu Ziqi was, his face full of curiosity.
As soon as I went in, I was startled when I saw the person in front of me.
"It's you?"
Lu Chen was truly incredulous, knowing that he had escaped from Flower Fairy Valley, something Ling Yan'er knew all too well.
Moreover, the reason I was able to sneak in was because of Ling Yan'er.
But how did Ling Yan'er, who was clearly a disciple of Flower Fairy Valley, suddenly enter the Xuanwu Academy? And she was even brought back by Lu Ziqi herself.
That's absolutely absurd.
When Ling Yan'er saw Lu Chen, she immediately became nervous. She was afraid that Lu Chen would expose her identity in public, which would be the end of her.
"Haha! Were you surprised? You two know each other, right? I don't need to introduce you."
Lu Ziqi was actually in a good mood. Seeing the two of them staring at each other, seemingly surprised, she found it quite amusing.
Lu Chen quickly came to his senses, glanced at Lu Ziqi, and said, "Of course I know her. She was originally my fiancée."
"What what?"
This time, Lu Ziqi was really startled. All he knew was that the two of them came from the Ten Thousand Swords Sect, a third-rate sect.
But to everyone's surprise, there was such a relationship between the two.
However, judging from what Lu Chen is saying now, there seems to be another story.
After all, Lu Chen said that was originally the case.
That means it's no longer the case.
"So, it seems your relationship is quite special! Tell me about it."
Lu Ziqi suddenly became interested and immediately returned to her seat in the main hall, reclining slightly. With a wave of her hand, she took out a lot of fruits and snacks, eating them while watching the two of them. She was clearly planning to listen to a story.
