Qin Changqing was somewhat speechless, hey, Miss Qingning, I’m still a master at least, can you not ignore me?
No wonder, Qin Changqing’s aura was only at the Tier 6 Golden Elixir, in Qingning’s eyes, he was just a dispensable role in Tianti Road.
Qin Lingshuang’s sword intent was strong, but her cultivation was too low.
Only Nangong Xue was already a worthy competitor in her eyes.
However, Qingning was a bit curious as both Qin Lingshuang and Nangong Xue’s attitudes towards Qin Changqing were overly good.
This doubt did not change until Mu Ling appeared again, which turned it into curiosity.
“My husband.” Mu Ling walked over without a second word and pulled Qin Changqing to the side. “I have a problem with my array formation, can you help me take a look?”
“Hey, hey, hey, I haven’t finished talking here yet!”
Qin Changqing looked back at Qingning and shouted, “Junior Sister Qing, we should communicate more when we’re free!”
Qin Lingshuang and Nangong Xue looked at him calmly as he left, as if they were already used to Qin Changqing’s odd behavior.
“Husband?” Qingning opened her mouth, “That’s Mu Ling Junior Sister, the daughter of Peak Master Mu, right?”
She remembered that during the Sect’s Grand Competition, Mu Ling had fought her.
At that time, she could see that Mu Ling, like herself, was devoted to cultivation.
Mu Ling cultivated array formations, and she cultivated swordsmanship.
Wait, Mu Ling Junior Sister asked Brother Qin to help her with her array formations, could it be that Brother Qin is an array formation master as well?
“Tsk, I didn’t expect Junior Sister Qingning to be so beautiful and talented, with such a powerful Golden Spiritual Root. It’s really against the natural order of things not to marry her and have children.”
Qin Changqing had never seen Qingning before and naturally didn’t know about her background.
All he heard was the sect saying how amazing the eldest sister was, with such a talent that was truly remarkable. New novel chapters are published on
Golden Spiritual root is a rare attribute spiritual root, and there are only a few within the entire Lingxiao Sect that have an attribute spiritual root, and generally, the spiritual root is very low.
Qin Changing asked, “What about loose cultivators? How do they get in?”
The corners of Mu Taixu’s mouth twitched as he replied, “The Taiyi Academy will send someone to guide them. All you need to remember is our purpose for coming here: the Tianti Road. Leave any other grievances for the outside world.”
It was evident that Mu Taixu held a deep sense of awe for the Taiyi Academy, repeatedly emphasizing this point, lest any unruly juniors misbehave.
Qin Changqing found this curious. While the righteous cultivators and demon cultivators were fiercely clashing outside, they could actually sit down and chat inside of the academy. This made the academy’s position quite delicate.
Either they were so high up that they didn’t care about such matters, or perhaps the so-called righteous and demon cultivators were actually the same when looked at from a higher perspective, and it was just a matter of not being able to see the bigger picture from a more localized viewpoint.
Qin Changqing was inclined to believe the latter.
After all, among the demon cultivators, many were reasonable and fair. Not all of them were as evil as their reputations suggested, arbitrarily killing innocent people.
As the group chatted and climbed the stairs, they finally reached the square at the end.
“Heh, the people of Lingxiao Sect have arrived. I thought you wouldn’t dare to come,” sneered a voice as Mu Taixu glanced at the speaker and humorlessly replied: “Nangong Fu, it’s more like that you shouldn’t come. I’ve been to Yinxu Prefecture several times recently, but I haven’t seen the City Lord. Has the Dayan Dynasty given up on so much territory?”
Nangong Fu’s face darkened.
The loss of Yinxu Prefecture had always been a sore spot for the Dayan
Dynasty. They originally planned to deal with the situation after the Tianti
Road trials, but the Qin family swiftly expanded their power and forged Yinxu Prefecture into a solid force, even yielding many benefits that had originally belonged to the Dayan Dynasty.
Under such circumstances, even if the Dayan Dynasty sent a City Lord over, he would likely die en route.
What was done had been done.
“Don’t be so smug. Let’s see how you fare on the Tianti Road this time. Are you not afraid of biting off more than you can chew in your eagerness to return to the Fourth Grade?”
Mu Taixu smirked. “We from Lingxiao Sect have always known our appetites and have acted accordingly. Look at the Dayan Dynasty, though. After what happened at Duanjian Mountain, there seems to be a certain depression in your ranks. What happened to your one book, one sword? Was the book burned, and the sword broken?”
Mu Taixu’s words immediately enraged the younger members of Nangong Fu’s party.
Qin Changqing was dumbfounded. Mu Taixu seemed so compassionate in daily life that he could be mistaken for a Buddha. He never expected him to be so glib, poking at the sore spots like Yinxu Prefecture and Duanjian Mountain.
Just then, another person spoke up.
“Gentlemen, grievances from the past are best resolved rather than perpetuated. Furthermore, with the Tianti Road trials about to begin, why not set aside your grievances for now?”
Qin Changqing looked over and saw a man with an immortal-like appearance, clad in light blue robes, and with a sword emblem embroidered on his chest. Although his voice was gentle, his eyes flashed like a sharpened blade as they swept over the Lingxiao Sect..
