Chapter 462 5-Star Dou Zun Shy Chu Wanqing

Despite this, Hun Mie Sheng did not dare to have a direct conflict with the person who had issued a warning earlier.

After all, the strength of the ancestor of Danta is unfathomable. Even though Hun Mie Sheng has now reached the realm of a five-star Dou Sheng, he knows that he is no match for him.

Furthermore, the Soul Palace's grand plan was about to be successfully completed, and he could not lose his composure because of this small episode and affect the grand plan of the entire clan.

That was a situation that Hun Mie Sheng did not want to see at all.

As the contemporary master of the Soul Palace, Hun Mie Sheng can naturally clearly distinguish the importance of things.

Faced with the current predicament, although his actions were hindered and he felt a little aggrieved, he could only issue some threats.

“Haha, you know the whole story much better than I do. How dare you dream of taking the things back? It’s really a pipe dream. What a fantasy.” The old voice echoed in the void. Although the tone was flat, it could not hide the sarcasm and contempt in it.

"As for the one you mentioned, he has been coveting me for a long time. If he really has the ability and energy to do it, then just come over."

Before he finished speaking, a powerful soul wave suddenly surged in the void, and another invisible soul shock came suddenly like a violent storm.

It rushed straight towards Hun Mie Sheng's soul detection, instantly smashing it into pieces and completely dissipating it into the endless void.

Such a brutal soul collision undoubtedly caused a considerable loss of soul power.

Afterwards, he once again glanced around the situation inside Shengdan City, and after repeatedly confirming that there was nothing wrong, he slowly withdrew his soul exploration.

In the quiet room before, Hun Mie Sheng’s soul perception collapsed under that blow, and his consciousness retreated back to his body like a tide.

He felt the dizziness lingering in his mind and couldn't help but clench his fists secretly. The anger in his heart was like boiling magma, difficult to calm down.

His teeth were clattering, his eyes were flashing with ferocity, and he whispered to himself, "Damn old thing! When my Soul Clan's grand plan is fully prepared, it will be time for you to pay the price. By then, not only your Dan Tower, but the entire Douqi Continent will surrender to my Soul Clan."

At this point, Hunmiesheng's face twisted into a cruel smile, which contained endless hatred and desire. "When that day comes, this hall master will personally eat you alive and refine your energy to repay the hatred that you, Danta, have had against my Hun Palace for so many years."

At the moment when Hun Mie Sheng's consciousness returned to his body, at the same time, on a vast plain tens of thousands of miles away from Shengdan City, a green cow was leisurely chewing fresh grass.

On the cow's back, a cowherd boy who looked no more than five or six years old was sitting quietly.

The cowherd boy slowly raised his childish face, his eyes piercing through the endless void, looking towards the far northwest. His clear eyes unexpectedly revealed a depth and vicissitudes beyond his age.

"As expected, that kid couldn't stand the loneliness after all." Although the cowherd boy's voice was childish, his words revealed the accumulation of years and emotion. He shook his head gently and continued to mutter to himself: "It is really hard to figure out what kind of conspiracy is hidden in the silence of the Soul Palace. Now is indeed a troubled time..."

As soon as he finished speaking, the cowherd boy gently raised the whip in his hand, urging the blue cow to move forward slowly. The blue cow walked at a leisurely pace, and its hooves landed on the soft grass, making a slight sound.

The sun gently sprinkled on them, casting a long shadow. Following the steps of the blue ox, their figures gradually faded on the vast grassland until they disappeared at the end of their sight...

……

In Shengdan City, in the Ye family mansion, inside the secret room where Xiao Ling practiced in seclusion.

A few days passed quietly like flowing water, but the scene in the secret room remained quiet with little change.

Xiao Ling still maintained the cross-legged sitting posture, like a sculpture, quietly immersed in his own world of cultivation.

On the side, Chu Wanqing had already withdrawn her hand that was on Xiao Ling's back and was standing quietly beside Xiao Ling.

The previous tension and concentration were gone in her eyes, replaced by a faint tranquility.

At this moment, she did not continue to gather the energy of heaven and earth and inject it into Xiao Ling's body. She just stood there quietly, silently observing Xiao Ling's focused face.

There was a hint of appreciation and expectation in her eyes that she herself had not even noticed.

Under Chu Wanqing's gaze, Xiao Ling's practice finally reached the most critical moment.

The energy between heaven and earth suddenly became violent, as if attracted by some mysterious force, and rushed towards the secret room frantically.

The speed of this energy was several times faster than before, like a flood breaking through a dam, rapidly and unstoppably pouring into Xiao Ling's body.

Xiao Ling's body instantly became a vortex of energy, and every pore of his body seemed to be opening, greedily absorbing this huge force. His aura suddenly expanded at this moment, like a dormant giant beast awakening, devouring the essence of heaven and earth.

At this moment, Xiao Ling's breath suddenly became restrained, and his body seemed to have turned into a bottomless well, absorbing all the energy into it.

As Xiao Ling let out a light shout, a breath even more powerful than before suddenly emanated from Xiao Ling's body. This breath was extremely hot, as if it could melt everything.

In his eyes, a flash of black flame passed by, which was a symbol of a breakthrough in power, but soon, the black flame was replaced by the original azure color, and clarity returned.

At this moment, Xiao Ling's aura was like the scorching sun in the sky, and the hot breath filled the entire room.

Even the stone slab on which he was sitting cross-legged, the hard stone began to show signs of melting, the surface of the stone gradually became soft, and even began to flow, as if in the face of this force, all matter could not maintain its original form.

Seeing that the fiery aura around Xiao Ling was becoming more and more intense, and seemed to be about to explode out of control at any time, Chu Wanqing reacted quickly, lightly waving her jade hand, and instantly released a solid Dou Qi barrier.

The barrier flickered with a faint light in the air, like an invisible and tough shield, completely enveloping the aura that surged out when Xiao Ling broke through.

The Dou Qi barrier is indestructible. It locks the surging aura tightly, preventing it from leaking out at all, thus ensuring the tranquility outside the secret room.

Chu Wanqing stared at the glowing Dou Qi barrier, a hint of surprise flashing in her eyes.

Within the Dou Qi barrier, the terrifying aura released from Xiao Ling's body was like a violent beast, constantly hitting the defense cast by Chu Wanqing.

The force was fierce and violent, attacking the barrier again and again, trying to find a gap to break through.

If Chu Wanqing's strength was not far superior to Xiao Ling's, it would be difficult for anyone else to completely block and conceal this violent aura using ordinary means.

Chu Wanqing shook her head slightly, as if she couldn't understand the scene in front of her. She whispered to herself, "It's unbelievable that such a huge commotion occurred after breaking through the Dou Zun realm. How did this little guy cultivate? He is simply a little monster."

After a moment, the majestic aura emanating from Xiao Ling's body gradually calmed down as if being gently soothed by an invisible hand, and was finally absorbed back into his body.

Xiao Ling let out a long breath, a gleam of satisfaction flashed in his eyes, then he slowly stood up, gently moved his shoulder blades, and felt the energy surging in his body, which was a more surging and powerful force than before.

A faint smile appeared on Xiao Ling's lips. He felt his breakthrough, and the feeling of power filling his whole body made him happy.

He stretched lazily, and there was a slight sound between his bones. Every inch of his muscle was filled with explosive power. With a casual wave of his hand, there was power that could cause mountains to collapse and the earth to split.

Xiao Ling's eyes slowly swept around, and finally stopped at Chu Wanqing who was standing beside him. Her figure was particularly clear against the light of the Dou Qi barrier.

Seeing this, Xiao Ling couldn't help but raise his eyebrows slightly, with a hint of surprise in his eyes. He said in surprise: "Hey, you haven't left yet? When you stopped injecting energy earlier, I thought you had left."

Chu Wanqing waved her hand lightly, and the battle qi barrier surrounding Xiao Ling dissipated like morning mist, instantly restoring the tranquility of the secret room.

She raised the corner of her mouth slightly, and spoke with a smile, with a hint of playfulness in her tone.
"Why, do you really want me to leave right away?"

There seemed to be a hint of anger in her words, and her eyes flashed with complex light, as if while she was blaming him, she also implied a kind of subtle expectation and concern. "Look at what you said, how could I have such an idea." Xiao Ling waved her hand gently, then a warm smile bloomed on her face, and she said slowly in a gentle tone,
"By the way, this time it was really thanks to your help. I was able to successfully break through to the Five-Star Dou Zun realm, and your contribution was indispensable."

His eyes were full of sincerity and his words were full of gratitude.

"It was I who came uninvited and interrupted your practice. All this was caused by me. It is my job to help you regain your tranquility for practice. You don't have to express your gratitude so solemnly." Chu Wanqing shook her head gently. Her demeanor became calm and composed again. No emotional fluctuations could be heard in her tone, as if the fluctuation just now was just a momentary illusion.

Xiao Ling observed Chu Wanqing's indifferent attitude and knew that she didn't want to dwell on this topic. So, he changed the subject and asked with a hint of curiosity:

"By the way, I must have spent quite a bit of time in my closed-door training this time. The final round of the upcoming Alchemy Competition should not have started yet, right? It would be a shame if I missed that crucial competition because of this breakthrough."

"You spent a total of eight days in seclusion this time." Chu Wanqing said slowly, her voice calm and clear, as if she was narrating something insignificant. "Fortunately, the third round of the alchemy competition has not yet begun. If you had come out half a day later, you would have missed the competition."

As she spoke, she raised her chin slightly, her eyes revealing a hint of seriousness. "I heard that the rules of Danta are very strict. Once the competition begins, no matter who you are, if you fail to arrive on time, you will be regarded as automatically forfeiting. But fortunately, your training this time did not delay the time."

"I see, that's good." Xiao Ling let out a long sigh, a relaxed smile on his face. "If I really missed it, it would be a big trouble."

Xiao Ling, who had just achieved a breakthrough in his cultivation, was now filled with excitement and anticipation. He couldn't wait to try his skills in the final round of the Alchemy Competition.

The spectacular scene of the competition emerged in his mind. There would be fierce competition, the alchemy fire would be burning brightly and dazzlingly, and many alchemy masters would show off their magical powers and superb skills.

All of this filled Xiao Ling's heart with longing.

I will also shine in this alchemy competition and become the most eye-catching focus since the event was held.

Xiao Ling will use his talent and strength to leave a strong mark in this event and make his name remembered by everyone.

Looking at Xiao Ling's high-spirited appearance, Chu Wanqing couldn't help but curl up the corners of her lips into a gentle smile.

However, she then shook her head slightly with some helplessness.

As an eighth-grade top alchemist, Xiao Ling's strength is undoubtedly the best in this alchemy conference, and it can be said that no one can match him.

All he needed to do was to show off his alchemy skills to the fullest.

As for the other contestants, they can only try their best to compete for the second place.

Suddenly, Chu Wanqing's figure paused slightly, as if she had sensed some unusual movement at that moment.

Her expression quickly returned to its previous calmness, as if the fluctuation just now did not leave any trace in her heart.

She opened her red lips slightly and said in a calm tone, "Well, your breakthrough this time has caused quite a stir. Your female confidantes seem to have noticed it. I'm sure they are rushing here in a hurry at this moment."

His words were so bland that it was difficult to discern his true emotions.

Chu Wanqing brushed her sleeves lightly, as if she was sorting something out, and then continued, "Since your affairs have been dealt with, I will not bother you any more. We will say goodbye and see you later..."

Chu Wanqing didn't say anything more after she finished speaking. She turned around and prepared to leave the secret room filled with a hot atmosphere.

However, just as she was about to take a step forward, her wrist was suddenly tightly grasped by a pair of firm and powerful hands. The strength of those hands was so great that she could not move forward in an instant.

Chu Wanqing was startled and her body paused involuntarily. She turned her head subconsciously, her eyes full of surprise and confusion, and her gaze was straight at Xiao Ling.

Xiao Ling met Chu Wanqing's gaze full of surprise and doubt. There was no trace of retreat in his eyes. Instead, there was a glimmer of determination.

The corners of his mouth lifted slightly, revealing a faint and slightly playful smile, and there seemed to be some unspeakable emotion hidden deep in his eyes.

There was a hint of amusement in his tone, and he asked slowly: "Are you...jealous?"

These words floated out of his mouth lightly, but they caused subtle fluctuations in the air in the secret room, like an invisible ripple, making the originally calm atmosphere instantly become complicated and ambiguous.

Chu Wanqing was stunned for a moment, her expression froze slightly, and then, a blush involuntarily appeared on her cheeks, as white as mutton-fat jade, like the sunset glow under the setting sun, reflecting her shyness and embarrassment.

She stuttered subconsciously and retorted incoherently: "You, you, you...what nonsense are you talking about? I...I'm not jealous."

Before she finished her words, she waved her arms anxiously, trying to shake off Xiao Ling's hand that was tightly holding her.

Her movements seemed hurried and revealed her inner panic, as if the deepest secret in her heart had been accidentally touched upon. Her uneasiness and shyness were fully revealed in her behavior.

Although Chu Wanqing exerted a lot of strength and kept waving her wrists to try to break free from Xiao Ling's grasp, Xiao Ling's physical strength was so terrifying that even if she used all her strength, Chu Wanqing's efforts still seemed in vain.

She was both anxious and angry. The blush not only spread to her cheeks, but also dyed her ears red. Her beautiful eyes were full of anger.

How could Xiao Ling, a veteran in the love field, not understand what to do in the current situation?

He took a light step forward, and almost instantly, the distance between the two was greatly shortened, with only one foot between them.

Under Chu Wanqing's slightly flustered and helpless gaze, Xiao Ling stretched out his other hand without hesitation.

The index finger and thumb worked together to gently pinch Chu Wanqing's chin and lift it slightly, making Chu Wanqing's delicate face more clearly displayed in front of Xiao Ling's eyes.

Xiao Ling's gaze slowly moved to her eyes. Those eyes were like a lake in late autumn, clear and deep. When they rippled slightly, they seemed to be able to reflect the secrets in people's hearts.
Further down, there is her nose, straight and delicate, like a work of art carefully carved by a sculptor;
Finally, his eyes fell on her lips. Those lips were like the most beautiful petals in spring, with a light pink hue, soft and attractive. When they were slightly opened, they seemed to hide endless shyness and temptation.

There was a flash of intoxication that was hard to conceal in Xiao Ling's eyes. His face slowly approached, and finally, his lips pressed against that heart-beating softness without hesitation.

The two of them felt each other's warmth and softness. For a moment, it seemed as if the whole world had stopped for them, leaving only each other's heartbeat and this sweet touch.

Chu Wanqing was stunned, her body stiffened instantly, and the panic in her heart was like a raging wave.

She instinctively wanted to resist slightly, trying to break free from this sudden intimacy, but her strength seemed to collapse in the face of Xiao Ling's tenderness, and she was unable to muster any strength.

In the end, she slowly gave up the idea of ​​resistance, and under Xiao Ling's guidance, she slowly immersed herself in this sweet moment, allowing her heart to sink into this tenderness.

Xiao Ling slowly loosened his grip on Chu Wanqing's wrist. His hands gently slid across her delicate body, finally stopping at her slender waist.

Immediately afterwards, Xiao Ling exerted a little force, and the slender body fell obediently into his arms.

Chu Wanqing's body stiffened slightly at this sudden intimate contact, and a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes, but soon, that surprise was replaced by some deeper emotion.

At this moment, she seemed to be touched by the tenderness in her heart, and she subconsciously stretched out her arms and tightly held Xiao Ling's arm.

Her actions were full of dependence and trust, and her eyes revealed a gentle light, as if silently telling her response to Xiao Ling.

The two hugged each other tightly, their lips touching, and the gentle touch was like a spring breeze, quietly awakening the emotions deep in their hearts.

At this moment, they expressed their feelings to each other through their actions, melting the ice in each other's hearts...
