Before leaving, she couldn't help but glance back in the direction the white-robed monk had disappeared. A trace of bewilderment crossed her bright and beautiful face, but it was quickly replaced by a firmer conviction.
"Big Brother, you are actually the Big Brother of Mount Taihua. I thought I was already exceptionally gifted just by reaching the late stage of Foundation Establishment, but among those in Mount Taihua, I'd only be ranked 20th. And you, on the other hand, are far superior. I will strive to reach a place where I can stand shoulder to shoulder with you. On that day, no matter what the outcome, I will express my belated gratitude and tell you... my feelings."
Mu Ruorong resolutely withdrew his burning gaze and followed the other disciples out of the arena.
What is the hardest thing to forget in this world? It is the love that goes deep into your bones.
Over the past few years, whenever Mu Ruorong felt like giving up, she would think of the green figure in the cave that night. She was still infected with spider venom at the time, unable to move, and could only watch the figure disappear into the night.
That back view was deeply imprinted in Mu Ruorong's heart, and she dared not forget it.
Even if he wears a mask and changes his voice, there is no way he will be mistaken!
Because it was that figure that allowed her, a female cultivator whose physique was naturally inferior to that of male cultivators, to survive for several years in the vast and dangerous Ten Thousand Beast Ridge. It was also that figure that allowed her to grit her teeth and persevere through countless difficulties, breaking through to her current realm.
I don’t necessarily have to get that person, I just want him to know that I appreciate you and I also... like you.
At this moment, Luo Jianqing couldn't wait to fly back to Yuxiao Peak.
It is certainly important to deal with this kind of thing and make Li Xiuchen lose face, but the most important thing is to educate your own master well, let him know how terrible it is to lock up an apprentice in a small dark room, and order him not to do it again in the future!
Luo Jianqing strode quickly to Xuan Lingzi's bamboo house, reached out to push the door, but was bounced open by the barrier.
Luo Jianqing: "..."
After a moment, he angrily said, "Wuyin! Why are you using the barrier again!"
Xuan Lingzi's righteous voice echoed from the bamboo house, "This time, I need to retreat for a period of time to forge the Frost Floating Sword for you. This sword has already connected with your mind, so there is no need to replace it. Therefore, I will upgrade its grade to make it more suitable for you."
The Frost Floating Sword echoed with two sword chants.
Luo Jianqing outside the bamboo house: "..." What should I do? It's convincing with solid evidence...
Luo Jianqing paced back and forth outside the house for a long time before finally thinking: "Why can't you let me in while you practice swordsmanship? I can't possibly disturb you while you're practicing!"
Xuan Lingzi: “…”
Luo Jianqing, who had grasped the key, opened his eyes wide and angrily said, "No! Sound!"
Xuan Lingzi, with a slightly red cheek, pretended not to hear: "..."
Luo Jianqing expressed his dissatisfaction in front of the bamboo house, but no matter what he said, the people in the house did not respond at all. Luo Jianqing was now certain that the sword-refining was just an excuse! They simply did not want to admit their mistakes!
Helpless, Luo Jianqing had to go back to his room to practice, planning to settle the score after he finished refining the sword.
This wait lasted for a full thirty days.
During this time, Luo Jianqing practiced the "Nine Heavenly Seizures Record," gaining a deeper understanding of the concept of seizing karma and being able to vaguely discern some of the more profound causal lines. For example, between him and Xuan Lingzi, there was a causal line as bright as the sun. Luo Jianqing didn't know what this causal line was, but he was extremely delighted by it.
In addition, Luo Jianqing could also see a causal line connecting to the earth from any cultivator whose strength exceeded the Jindan stage. Each of the Seven Taihua disciples had it, as did the elders of Taihua Mountain, and even the venerable ones.
However, when Luo Jianqing looked at Xuan Lingzi's bamboo house, he found that it was empty and without any light.
Luo Jianqing was slightly stunned, and carefully ran through the "Nine Heavenly Records", reading it seriously for a long time.
But, no means no.
There was nothing under Xuan Lingzi's feet. He didn't have the causal line that everyone has, which connects to the earth.
Luo Jianqing frowned, pondered for a long time, and came to a conclusion: "Perhaps after reaching the Spiritual Transformation Stage, this causal line has undergone different changes. Moreover, I can only see this causal line of cultivators above the Golden Core Stage. Perhaps with my strength, I can't see this causal line of cultivators at the Spiritual Transformation Stage. I need to practice more seriously!"
When Luo Jianqing was trying to study the "Nine Heavenly Records" again, one day, the Venerable Hao Xingzi suddenly came to Yuxiao Peak. As the only person on Yuxiao Peak who was not in seclusion, Luo Jianqing naturally came out to greet the Venerable Master.
Upon hearing about Xuan Lingzi's retreat, Hao Xingzi didn't ask any further questions. He said to Luo Jianqing, "In three days, we'll depart for the Demonic Palace. Jianqing, make some preparations. Your Third Junior Sister will be going with you this time. The Demonic Palace is no small matter. Don't be careless. It's not within the boundaries of the Thirty-Six States. Follow the instructions of your Uncle-Master Yu Qingzi in everything."
Luo Jianqing was stunned when he heard this and asked in surprise: "Uncle Master, when did I go to the Demonic Palace?"
Hao Xingzi looked at him in surprise and said, "A few months ago, Junior Brother Xuan Lingzi said that he wanted you to go to the Demonic Palace and see it for yourself."
Luo Jianqing: "..."
Naturally, he couldn't tell Venerable Hao Xingzi about what happened between him and that person, so Luo Jianqing had no choice but to respectfully send Hao Xingzi away and promised to train him three days later. However, as soon as Hao Xingzi left, he walked to Xuan Lingzi's door in embarrassment and slapped the barrier with his hand, "You actually wanted me to leave Taihua Mountain just to avoid me?"
Luo Jianqing's palm strike showed no sign of weakening. His cultivation was far inferior to Xuan Lingzi's, and if he really struck, he would surely be severely injured by the backlash. Just as he was about to strike the barrier, he saw the bamboo door open, and a hand tightly grasped Luo Jianqing's thin wrist.
