C53 (2/2)
As soon as the White Jade Gate left, the other two sects also started to stir up. They greeted Ling Xuan and the almost retarded Yuan Xu with a few words before quickly leaving with displeasure on their faces.
Falling Star Sword, Qiu Xi! I thought that Qiu Xuan already had enough strength to make him unwilling to take the risk and attack, but now it seems like this Qiu Xi should be disdaining Qiu Xuan's petty tricks and turning a blind eye to it. No wonder Qiu Xi knew of Qiu Xuan's hatred towards him, yet she still kept him by her side. From the looks of it, it had been planned long since for the Fallen Star Sword to fall into his hands. With this sword by his side, even a casual sword strike would have the strength of six mountains.
It's a pity that with my current strength, even Qiu Xuan is able to easily kill me. However, Qiu Xuan said that if I could reach the False Sky Realm, then there was a high possibility of killing Qiu Xi. It seemed that he still had some hidden strength that he had yet to reveal.
So right now, following Pu Xuan back to the White Jade Sect and taking advantage of that opportunity to reach the Sky Realm was the only way out for me. At the very least, it would mean that I had the power to become a False Sky Realm.
Ever since they came to the Sky Sect, with Chen Ziming's identity, what that brought to Pu Xuan and the rest was astonishment and suspicion, but fortunately they had a lot of trust in the Bai Clan Elder's skills, and felt that I did not hold back in front of them, so the doubts in their hearts should have found a relatively reasonable explanation.
Elder Bai is also a very loyal person. He agreed to leave tomorrow. Indeed, when the sun just arrived and the horizon was just starting to brighten, he took us out of the Sky Sect.
On the way back, we passed that weird little town again. I told Pu Xuan and flew down.
Windstorm Sand Town, this is the first time I've seen Wu Qing here, this demon clan friend is just like Ah Hu, in front of him, I don't have to pretend, everything goes according to my heart, but now, Ah Hu, in front of him, I really don't have to pretend … The people in the town had already returned to normal. Although there weren't many people, there were some who were still alive, and along the way, there were already people peddling along the street, and others who were opening their doors to do business. The old people were sitting in the courtyard, watching the leaves fall from the trees and smoking their pipe.
People who had experienced hardships would enjoy simple and ordinary life.
It seems that Wu Qing really wasn't lying to me. He left, leaving this place to search for his home.
Looking at the red sun rising in the sky, I muttered, Wu Qing is braver than me, but he is also luckier than me. I wish him the best of luck in fulfilling his dream. Just like that, help me realize a dream, a dream that I don't dare to make … I didn't want to, nor did I dare to disturb this tranquility in Sandstorm Town. With a little melancholy, I turned around and was about to leave.
”Chen Ziming?”
A woman's voice came from behind him. It wasn't that it was extremely pleasant to hear, but it was also very soothing.
”It's really you!” I thought I lost it! ”
Turning around, I see Lan Yun whose chest is rising and falling slightly. He is looking at me with an excited expression and a hint of a smile.
”Hmm? Lan … ”Miss, what's the matter?”
I'm not too clear about this generation, and the sword faction doesn't seem to have any relationship with the White Jade Sect. I don't know which generation of disciples this Lan Yun is from, and I don't know if I should call her Junior-apprentice Sister or Senior Sister.
”My surname isn't Lan. My surname is Shen, Shen Tianlan's Shen.”
My heart jolts. Shen Lanyun, Shen Tianlan's Shen! It looks like she's the daughter of the Time Sword Sect's Leader, Shen Tianlan. No wonder Shen Tianlan had cast me such a grateful gaze that day.
”Oh, oh, oh. So it's Sect Master Shen's daughter. Miss Shen, please forgive my rudeness!”
”Don't be so polite, just call me Lan Yun. My surname isn't usually given to others, and yesterday, if you didn't save me, I wouldn't be standing here today.”
”You don't have to be so polite. Everyone has a common enemy, if I don't save you, who else can I save?”
Although I didn't have the heart to save her yesterday and was purely thinking of saving myself, but to be able to make others owe me a favor is still a very good thing. Especially this person, he has the entire sword faction backing him up.
”Mm, but still, thank you …” ”You, are you busy? We're looking for a place to chat?”
Looking at Shen Lan Yun's blushing face due to shyness, I nodded my head out of the blue. Unexpectedly, I nodded my head just like that and let my revenge plan drag the entire sword faction and even the Mountain God School into it …
