Chapter 871 (2/2)

“Elder Lei…”

“You’re not unaware that ever since the Alchemy Conference ended, we’ve been together the whole time, and just now Elder Bai had detained me to discuss some matters, only now did I get a chance.”

Elder Lei then laughed and said,

“I naturally know that.

I was just joking with you a moment ago.”

After saying this, Elder Lei straightened his face and said,

“My niece’s Identity Token has already been arranged, and the cave dwelling is also ready.

You take her there now, introduce her, and let her get familiar with the situation.”

Hearing this, Lin Jing asked Elder Lei,

“Aren’t you planning to go back to the cave dwelling together?”

Elder Lei spoke,

“I plan to leave now and go back to the Sect, so I won’t return to the cave dwelling.”

Lin Jing understood that Elder Lei’s decision was probably for the matter of the Ascension Pill.

So, he nodded and asked no further.

After finishing, Elder Lei gave a few instructions to the Holy Maiden of Yunxian Sect, then left.

After Elder Lei left, Lin Jing took the Holy Maiden of Yunxian Sect and headed back to the Elixir Alliance cave dwelling located at the outskirts of the Extreme Emperor Mountain Range.

Walking on the road, Lin Jing ahead and the Holy Maiden of Yunxian Sect behind, the two walked quietly, without words.

However…

Just as the two entered the area of the Extreme Emperor Mountain Range where the cave dwelling was located, Lin Jing suddenly stopped, turned around, and looked at the Holy Maiden of Yunxian Sect, asking,

“Do you recognize me?”

Before this, there had been no warning; Lin Jing suddenly turned around, and it seemed the Yunxian Sect Holy Maiden was contemplating something and was completely unguarded.

She was startled by Lin Jing’s action.

“Ah…?”

Seeing the Holy Maiden of Yunxian Sect look like this, as if she hadn’t heard his question earlier, Lin Jing softened his tone and asked again,

“I mean, have we met before?”

“The first time I saw you, I felt something familiar, always felt like we had met somewhere before, but I wasn’t sure.”

“If you don’t mind, could you remove your veil and let me see your true face?”

The Holy Maiden of Yunxian Sect glanced at Lin Jing, then quickly avoided his gaze, appearing quite shy.

However…

Though she seemed shy, she still nodded her head.

Ɲονɡօ.сο

Then, the Holy Maiden of Yunxian Sect extended her delicate hand and slowly lifted the veil from her face.

After lifting the veil, Lin Jing first saw the red glow on her face.

Then, she raised her head to look at Lin Jing.

Seeing her face, Lin Jing was also stunned.

Simply because…

The Holy Maiden of Yunxian Sect looked extremely similar to someone Lin Jing knew well.

That person was Ning Yue.

In that instant, Lin Jing also realized who this Holy Maiden of Yunxian Sect was.

Ning Yue’s daughter, Luo Luo!

Back when he was expelled from Qingyuan Sword Sect, he had lived at the foot of the mountain in Nanshan Market, and his neighbors were Ning Yue and her daughter Luo Luo.

It was also then that he met Luo Luo and they had spent quite some time together.

However, since the end of the beast tide, when they left, Lin Jing had not seen Luo Luo again.

Later, when he met Ning Yue again, only from Ning Yue did he find out that Luo Luo had been discovered by a master who recognized her Hidden Spirit Root and had taken her in as a disciple.

He had not expected that Luo Luo would become the Holy Maiden of Yunxian Sect, now thinking about it, probably the master was from Yunxian Sect.

Luo Luo looked at Lin Jing, her cheeks flushed, and spoke softly,

“Uncle Lin, it’s me, Luo Luo…”

Luo Luo’s words pulled Lin Jing back to the present.

Looking at the Luo Luo in front of him, whose beauty surpassed even Ning Yue’s, Lin Jing couldn’t help but reflect,

“Luo Luo, you’ve really grown up…”
