Chapter 117 Cultivation in Deep Concentration (2/2)
Xiao Chen knocked on her forehead. ”Oh, you! That's quite enough! Focus! If there's anything you don't understand, you can still seek Perfected Immortal Qing Chen's guidance these few days.” Then, he sat down cross-legged on the ground and began operating the Mystic Cyan Cultivation Method to absorb the Spiritual Qi from heaven and earth.
Luo Shangyan wasn't as assiduous as he was. After meditating for a while, she wanted to look around the valley with him. However, she didn't feel comfortable disturbing him after seeing how focused he was. She sat in front of a stone wall by herself and stared at the blossoming flowers and fluttering butterflies in the distance. She gradually sank into a daze.
Two months swiftly passed. There was an abundance of Spiritual Qi in the Bright Moon Valley and Xiao Chen was more talented than most people in the first place. His cultivation was now in the 7th level of the Foundation Building Realm. Even Yu Yifeng was terribly shocked. Meanwhile, Luo Shangyan had entered the Foundation Building Realm as well.
Meanwhile, there was still no news of Murong Xian'er. In the past two months, Xiao Chen had personally left to look for her but in the sea of people out there, he didn't know where to even start looking.
Today was the day they would depart for the Widespread Wintriness Sect in the Wu Province. Thus, the two of them didn't go to the Bright Moon Valley. After getting ready, they stepped out of their rooms. Yu Yifeng had also arrived at their courtyard. Seeing them, he asked, ”Where's Ms. Mu?”
The door creaked open and Mu Chengxue walked out of her room. She was dressed in her usual white clothes, though she looked a little lost. Yu Yifeng thought that she didn't look too well and walked toward her. ”What's wrong? You didn't sleep well last night?”
Mu Chengxue raised her head to look at him. Suddenly, she asked, ”Who are you?”
Xiao Chen and Luo Shangyan were stunned. From the way she acted, she didn't seem like she was joking around. Luo Shangyan asked quietly, ”Sister Mu, what's wrong?”
Mu Chengxue turned to look at her and then at Xiao Chen. ”Sister Shangyan, Xiao Chen, are we going to the Wu Province today? The one going with us is...” She shook her head with all her strength. Finally, she looked at Yu Yifeng and said apologetically, ”Just now... I don't know what's going on. My mind is a little hazy.”
Yu Yifeng smiled. ”I thought you're joking with me. Forget about it. Master and the others are waiting for us at the square. Let's leave now.”
Xiao Chen joined Mu Chengxue's side and asked quietly, ”Are you really fine?” To be frank, he noticed that Mu Chengxue seemed to be somewhat muddle-headed these days. Moreover, her gaze earlier looked as if she had truly forgotten about Yu Yifeng. Why would she remember him and Senior Sister Luo but not Yu Yifeng whom she had known for seven years?
Mu Chengxue smiled. ”I'm completely fine. You're overthinking. Let's go!”
When the four of them arrived at the mountain gate square, they saw that Perfected Immortal Qing Chen, several Elders, as well as a considerable number of disciples, were already there. A Flying-cloud Stone that was neither large nor small was hovering in the air. Two men and two women were standing atop the stone, all of which were already in the Core Forming Realm.
Xiao Chen was reminded of the Immortals League Competition. Sure enough, the Jade Qing Sect's decision not to participate was a right one. Considering how four random disciples were already in the Core Forming Realm, Zhou State had basically no chance of success.
Perfected Immortal Qing Chen said, ”Yifeng, you must be careful and take good care of your juniors.” Yu Yifeng saluted his Master. ”Yes, Master.”
Seeing that Yu Yifeng was about to leave, the two children, Hanxi and Ziling, looked incredibly reluctant. One hugged his leg while the other tugged on his sleeve, refusing to let go.
”No. I don't allow you to go, Master.”
Yu Yifeng shook his head with a sigh. Then, he smiled. ”That's enough. You two, be obedient and listen well to your Grandmaster. You're not allowed to argue or be mischievous.”
”We won't argue anymore so don't go, Master. Once you leave, it'll be so long before you'll come back again...”
Yu Yifeng squatted down and caressed the two children's forehead. ”That's enough. I'll be back swiftly this time. Be obedient and go back.”
Ultimately, Hanzi and Ziling reluctantly watched him leap onto the Flying-cloud Stone. They reminded Xiao Chen of his Master and he sighed before following suit.
