1002 The Eve of Leaving
“Disciple... You’ve worked hard recently! You’ve led Mengli for so long alone and your cultivation hasn’t fallen behind. I’m very satisfied with your performance.” Ye Qiu said sincerely.
Indeed, Zhao Wan’er had sacrificed a lot for Violet Cloud. She could have ascended a long time ago, but she was worried about Mengli being alone in the next batch and took the initiative to stay.
Compared to his other disciples, Ye Qiu owed her because she had the least time by his side. She was also the one who had the least time for Ye Qiu to guide her.
Ye Qiu felt a little guilty.
“Master, Wan’er did not suffer. It’s what I should do. Moreover, compared to the disputes here, I prefer the peace and quiet of the lower realm.”
Zhao Wan’er said truthfully. She was open-minded and had no intention of blaming her master. Not only that, in her heart, her master was the person she admired the most in her life and should be grateful to.
Back then, if her master hadn’t despised her and brought her back to the mountain, her fate would have long been used as a tool for marriage alliances with allies. She was very grateful. Moreover, her master had never mistreated her in terms of cultivation resources. What was there to be dissatisfied about?
Ye Qiu nodded in relief when he saw her sincere gaze.
Sigh, there was no choice! His disciples are just so sensible and considerate. He had never worried about them. They had almost never caused him any trouble. Even if he was not at home, they could still maintain this sect well.
“Alright! I called you here today because I have something to arrange.” After chatting, Ye Qiu began to talk about serious matters.
After the Heaven Mending Assembly ended, Ye Qiu had already planned to leave the divine mountain and go to the Immortal Ancient Battlefield. However, he had not seen his beloved disciple for a long time, so he stayed for a while longer. After all, he did not know how long it would take for him to return. Or perhaps, he would not return.
Therefore, he had to tell them what to do.
“Qingzhu, I’m about to go to the Immortal Ancient Battlefield to find your mistress. After I leave, Violet Cloud Training Hall will be under your control. I’ve already greeted Elder Gu. Now, you’re the actual controller of Violet Cloud Training Hall. This isn’t the first time you’ve taken over such a heavy responsibility. You must have experience.
“Currently, the Nine Heavens and Ten Lands are relatively peaceful. As long as you don’t leave the divine mountain, there won’t be any danger. If you really encounter anything that you can’t resolve, you can bring my token to the Star Picking Pavilion to ask for help. Those elders will help you.”
Hearing this, Lin Qingzhu’s expression instantly became heavy. Zhao Wan’er felt even more disappointed. She did not expect that not long after she finally saw her master, her master would leave again. It seemed that no matter how hard she tried, she could not catch up to her master. This made her very disappointed.
“Yes, Master! I’ll remember.” Lin Qingzhu was relatively calm. As her cultivation level increased, her character and knowledge gradually increased, and her mentality also changed.
She knew that her master had always been opening a path for them. From the moment he left the lower realm, she had already understood that in the future, they were destined to spend less time together.
The years of their cultivation life passed in the blink of an eye. Compared to this, the day they gathered was actually not bad. Moreover, Lin Qingzhu also understood that this world could not restrain her master. He would definitely go to a wider world to open his legend.
“Now that the First Elder has left, I believe it won’t be long before the world changes drastically. I don’t want you to be involved, but who can avoid this karma calamity? Suffering is also a part of cultivation. Experiencing some hardships is also extremely helpful to your cultivation, so I won’t force you to hide in the mountain. Remember, no matter what happens, the most important thing is to protect your own safety. Do you understand?” Ye Qiu instructed earnestly.
Lin Qingzhu led the way and replied in unison, “Understood.”
“Whew,” Ye Qiu was still a little worried as he looked at the four beloved disciples in front of him. However, after thinking about it, he realized that they were all very sensible and had grown up. It was impossible for him to protect them for the rest of their lives.
Before he left, Ye Qiu reminded them of many things and instructed them about the development path of Violet Cloud Training Hall. Among them, he specially instructed Lin Qingzhu that if she had the intention to take in a disciple, that youth called Zhang Shanfeng was not bad and could consider accepting him.
Ever since the Heaven Mending Assembly ended, Zhang Shanfeng had always wanted to become Ye Qiu’s disciple. In order to repay Ye Qiu’s kindness, he was willing even as an outer sect disciple.
One had to know that he was a genius who had broken the historical record many times at the grand meeting. The various peaks had long thrown him an olive branch, and his treatment was not something ordinary people could compare to.
Even Daoist Tianfeng personally went down, but no one expected him to refuse all of them and firmly choose Violet Cloud. However, Ye Qiu had no intention of taking in a disciple. He could only enter the forbidden land and enjoy the outstanding treatment from the sect. It wasn’t too bad.
Apart from this matter, there was another thing, which was among the new generation disciples of the Heaven Mending Sect, Qi Hao, Liu Qingfeng, and Ming Yue’s beloved disciple, Liu Ruyan.
Because Qi Wuhui was from the Hidden Sword lineage, he took over his biological son, Qi Hao.
The Liu siblings originally wanted to join Ming Yue. After all, Ming Yue was Liu Ruyan’s master, but Ming Yue was no longer on the mountain.
Liu Qingfeng was also Meng Tianzheng’s disciple in name, but that was only a clone of Meng Tianzheng. In the orthodoxy, he was not recognized, so he naturally did not belong.
Ye Qiu could only bring the two of them over to prevent them from being arranged to start from the outer sect. He had seen the difficult conditions of the outer sect. They were unfamiliar with the place and were easily bullied.
“Martial Uncle...” In the small courtyard outside the mountain, Liu Qingfeng and Liu Ruyan were meditating and cultivating. Ye Qiu passed by and the two of them hurriedly stood up to bow.
Ye Qiu nodded and said, “Qingfeng, it’s been a while since you ascended. Are you still used to it?”
“Hehe, Martial Uncle, the immortal energy in the Nine Heavens and Ten Lands is too thick. There are famous immortal lands everywhere. How can I not be used to the Grotto-heaven blessed land?” Liu Qingfeng replied with a smile.
“Haha, you’ll get used to it.” Ye Qiu smiled. Then, he looked at Liu Ruyan and said, “Ruyan, you came at the wrong time. Your master has already left the divine mountain. For now, you should cultivate well on Violet Cloud Mountain. Coincidentally, you have your junior sisters and your brother to accompany you. You won’t be lonely.”
Liu Ruyan’s eyes were a little disappointed. In order to see her master, she had worked hard to cultivate and finally ascended to the Upper Realm. Unexpectedly, when she arrived here in ecstasy, Ye Qiu suddenly told her that her master had already left. She had not seen her master for many years and missed her very much.
“Thank you, Martial Uncle.” Liu Ruyan said in a low voice. She only wanted to see her master, but she also understood.
At this moment, her master was no longer the familiar master in her memory. Moreover, she also understood one thing, which was that her master was actually the most stunning woman in the entire Nine Heavens and Ten Lands. She could be said to be a legendary existence that suppressed everyone in her generation.
When she first heard this news, she was shocked for a long time. She was overjoyed and proud.
