Chapter 1204: Spatial Ancestral Symbol (2/2)

Little Marten, first elder Zhu Li and the rest also hurried over. When they saw this strange atmosphere, they smirked involuntarily. Meanwhile, they looked at Lin Dong with a playful expression in their eyes.

“Cough.”

The strange atmosphere continued. However, both Ying Huanhuan and Ling Qingzhu did not speak up. Finally, Lin Dong could only cough softly in order to break the silence. After which, he glanced at the damaged Nine Heavens Supreme Purity Palace before he pondered and asked, “Where is the palace master?”

“Teacher has died.”

A dim expression flashed across Ling Qingzhu’s autumn water like eyes, before she continued, “The elders are all seriously injured. Our Nine Heavens Supreme Purity Palace has suffered serious losses.”

Lin Dong sighed softly. This was something that was unavoidable. After all, the current Nine Heavens Supreme Purity Palace was indeed unable to put up much of a resistance against Yuan Gate. In fact, had they arrived a little later, it was likely that Nine Heavens Supreme Purity Palace would have suffered even more severe losses.

“This time around… On behalf of every disciple from Nine Heavens Supreme Purity Palace, I would like to thank you, your friends from Dao Sect, and elders from another region.” Ling Qingzhu softly said.

“Haha, no problem at all.” First elder Zhu Li laughed. Then, he quickly shook his head and said, “Forget it. You young fellows should have a chat. An old man like me is unable to handle this tense atmosphere.”

He turned around and left after uttering those words. Little Marten and the rest also grinned before they left. Following which, the surrounding disciples from Nine Heavens Supreme Purity Palace also left in small groups. However, they continued to cast some curious glances over.

Ying Huanhuan’s icy blue pretty eyes glanced at Lin Dong when she saw the scattering crowd. After which, she smiled at Ling Qingzhu and extended her delicate hand, “Ying Huanhuan from Dao Sect. I believe that we have met before.”

“Ling Qingzhu. As of now, there is likely no one in the entire Eastern Xuan Region who doesn’t know who Miss Huanhuan is.” There was also a rarely seen smile on Ling Qingzhu’s pretty face. Then, she extended her hand before she gently shook Ying Huanhuan’s hand. It seems like these two prideful individuals were unwilling to submit in front of the other.

“The both of you should have a chat.” Ying Huanhuan did not say anything more. Instead, she turned and stared at Lin Dong. After which, with a much gentler tone, she said, “Let’s return to Dao Sect after you are done. I will be waiting for you.”

She did not linger on after uttering those words. Instead, she turned around and left.

“Miss Huanhuan treats you very well.” Ling Qingzhu was quiet for a moment after she saw that Ying Huanhuan had left. Finally, she remarked.

“You went to the Great Yan Empire? My mother said that she has met you before.” Lin Dong smiled. He stared at Ling Qingzhu before he asked.

Ling Qingzhu nodded in a seemingly calm manner. However, her fair face was slightly flushed as she said, “It just so happens that I went to the Great Yan Empire to do something. After which, I decided to visit your parents as well.”

She continued to speak in a calm manner. However, there were tiny ripples in her eyes, which typically held no emotions. That was because she knew that her excuse was simply too far fetched.

Lin Dong nodded and said, “My mother asked me when I was going to bring the both of you back.”

Ling Qingzhu rolled her eyes. Her demeanor caused one’s bones to soften. After which, she raised her brow, before she questioned him, “Both of us?”

Instantly, Lin Dong felt his head swell.

Ling Qingzhu curled her red lips. After which, she turned her head away and said, “After three years, you have changed quite a bit. ”

Lin Dong smiled. Then, he lifted his head and looked at the setting sun, “That is because I want to come back.”

Ling Qingzhu remained silent. His short sentence allowed her to understand just how much hard work this young man in front of her, had put in over the last three years. Others had only witnessed his glory. However, no one knew how many times he lingered between life and death in order to obtain this strength.

“Actually, you were very powerful three years ago.”

Ling Qingzhu said softly. The scene from three years ago flashed within her mind. A blood covered skinny man holding onto a long spear, did not display the slightest fear even when up against the three great heads of Yuan Gate. His courage and charisma caused the expressions of countless people to change, even including hers.

Lin Dong smiled. After which, he slowly stretched his lazy waist and exhaled, “Since I am back, it’s time to wrap things up.”

“What are your plans?” When Ling Qingzhu felt the bloodthirstiness within his words, she suddenly asked.

Lin Dong lifted his head. He stared at that bloody sunset before his faint voice slowly spread.
