Two girls appeared in front of the Seal Suppression Hall, one standing while the other in a wheelchair, they were both bright and cheerful young ladies; one of them was tender like the water while the other pure as the moon.

However, the "Brother Zhong" that was called out earlier did not come from the pure and naive Qiu Jin'er but the demon god that was disguised as Shui Qingyan, since Qiu Jin'er would only call him 'senior martial brother.'

"Junior Martial Sister Jin'er, didn't you legs recovered?" Zhong Yue was puzzled as he walked toward them.

Qiu Jin'er rolled her wooden wheelchair forward and said smilingly, "I can walk freely already. But I had a duel with Junior Martial Sister Shui, and she broke my legs by accident. I'm still recovering from the wound so I can only sit in the wheelchair for now."

Rays flashed in Zhong Yue's eyes as he looked over to 'Shui Qingyan' beside them, he concealed his killing intent and gave them warm, bright smile, "What impressive strength, I wonder if you can break my legs?"

'Shui Qingyan' was soft and tender like the water; her eyes were filled with affection as he said, "If there is a chance, I'd like to try."

Her heart stiffened as their eyes met, she could instantly feel the hidden killing intent in his eyes.

Zhong Yue crouched down and placed his hand on Qiu Jin'er's legs. He checked her bones as he was afraid that 'Shui Qingyan' would play dirty tricks and break all of Qiu Jin'er's bones or even more, leave behind some hidden injuries in her body.

Qiu Jin'er's face blushed crimson red, and she thought, Grandmother Lu is not here, and senior martial brother is touching me, taking advantage of my injured body….

Just when her thoughts were running wild, Zhong Yue surged out his psyche and inspected her broken bones, wounded tendons, and injured muscles. Immediately, she realized that she had wronged Zhong Yue.

I initially thought that he was touching me randomly, who knew that he only intended to check on my wounds. Thankfully I didn't push him away. Otherwise, he would've known of my wild thoughts.

Qiu Jin'er's heart was touched, and she whispered to him, "Senior martial brother, it's nothing, it's just a small wound, Junior Martial Sister Shui is also wounded."

'Shui Qingyan''s eyes starting to get watery and she said mournfully, "Brother Yue, I've injured my chest, Senior Martial Sister Qiu nearly pierced through my chest, even my heart was nearly taken down by her. Why don't you come and check on me as well?"

Nearly took down her heart? It seems like Junior Martial Sister Jin'er has already caught up to Tian Myriad Mother? En, it must due to the headmaster having taught the true quintessence of the [Great Boundless Sword Qi] to Junior Martial Sister Jin'er.

Zhong Yue knew it very well, the [Great Boundless Sword Qi] was the cultivation art of the first Swords Gate headmaster, it was a god-level cultivation technique on its own. Only the headmasters could cultivate it. However, because of Qiu Jin'er's weak body, the current headmaster had created a sword token with the intention of passing it to her, but from a twist of fate, the sword token landed in Zhong Yue's hands. He then learned the sword token of the [Great Boundless Sword Qi] and taught it to Qiu Jin'er.

When they were going to the Xiao Mang Celestial Temple, the headmaster taught her the skills of the [Great Boundless Sword Qi]. During the time that Zhong Yue was not in Swords Gate, the headmaster had explained all the facets of the [Great Boundless Sword Qi] to her. That was why she could progress so quickly to eventually stand on par with Tian Myriad Mother.

"Brother Yue is not going to caress me?" 'Shui Qingyan' rubbed her bountiful chest and lamented.

Zhong Yue lifted his head with a casual smile and said, "Sure, if you don't mind me doing that, why wouldn't I?"

He stepped forward and, immediately, 'Shui Qingyan' recoiled back. She chuckled as she said, "Brother Yue, I'm afraid that you'll take advantage of me. If you caress my chest, then my heart will be taken away by you."

Zhong Yue was more than happy to crush this demon god and strip her wicked heart away from her; unfortunately, this demon refused to give him the chance to do so.

Tian Myriad Mother is still in Swords Gate, which means that the celestial messenger is still in play. Lei Hong's death is only a show he put up to fool the world and divert their focus. What a shame, even until his end, Lei Hong was oblivious to the fact that he was just a pawn on someone else's chessboard, Zhong Yue thought in his heart.

When Qiu Jin'er asked him why he was here, Zhong Yue explained to them that he had taken over Nan Qianfang's position as the hall master of Seal Suppression Hall. Upon hearing the news, anxiety gradually overtook 'Shui Qingyan''s heart. She was initially aiming for the position, but Zhong Yue snatched it before she could do anything!

The celestial messenger still said that Nan Qianfang is already old. He was confident that he could let me take over her position. But now, it seems like the celestial messenger is still not as powerful as the headmaster!

Rays flashed in her eyes as she thought to herself, This old geezer of Swords gate, why did he send the Zhong Shan Clan member over? Did he find out anything?

Her heart undulated unceasingly, Zhong Yue was undoubtedly a trusted crony of the headmaster. The headmaster favored him a lot, even going so far as imparting him the [Great Boundless Sword Qi]. Although not the full cultivation technique, the sword totem patterns was still no trifling matter!

This Zhong Shan Clan member is half of the old geezer's disciple while Qiu Jin'er is his disciple, now, for him to send over one and a half of his disciple over here, clearly, he has honed his focus onto me so that I wouldn't be able to do anything!

Zhong Yue glanced at the girl, he conducted his sound directly into her ears and said, "I'm quite amazed that Junior Martial Sister Shui didn't leave."

'Shui Qingyan' laughed gently, and she said, "Brother Yue is still in Swords Gate, so how could I be willing to leave."

The duo exchanged a look; they were grinding their teeth, contemplating a way to kill one another. While the concerned Qiu Jin'er was on the side asking on how Zhong Yue's closed-door training went. Zhong Yue only returned perfunctory answers as he was thinking of how to kill 'Shui Qingyan' quietly.

'Shui Qingyan' was smiling as she listened to Qiu Jin'er's questions, she suddenly smiled, "Brother Yue, there is also a Brother Yue in the East Barren called Long Yue. This Long Yue's name is now more famous than yours. I hear that he's killed over dozens of Atman Body experts; is Brother Yue going to challenge him?"

Zhong Yue's face turned dark; the others didn't know that 'Long Yue' and 'Zhong Yue' were both the same people, but this demon god knew that fact very well. She was clearly broaching the topic to threaten him!

This imp is giving me a warning, threatening that she will expose my identities if I don't follow her instructions.
