938 The Night Before the Storm



What was strange was that after Lian Feng entered the Star Picking Pavilion, everything became calm. The immortal aura that lingered in the world gradually dissipated.

It was as if nothing had happened.

What was the old man up to? Ye Qiu couldn't help but figure it out in his heart. Everyone was waiting. Unfortunately, no one waited for a third person until dusk fell and night fell.

In the Star Picking Pavilion, no one knew what Meng Tianzheng had instructed and why he had summoned the two of them. This was because they had never come out since they entered the Star Picking Pavilion.

Ye Qiu felt vaguely uneasy. He kept feeling that Lian Feng's expression was very wrong before she left, as if there was something difficult to say. It was as if she was hesitating and conflicted about parting. However, she was speechless and silent.

"Could it be a farewell?" Ye Qiu's heart suddenly trembled. He seemed to have guessed Lian Feng's thoughts. But why did she say goodbye? Where was she going?

Ye Qiu couldn't figure it out, but he could guess that this was definitely Meng Tianzheng's special arrangement.

However, Ye Qiu didn't understand. Why did it have to be Lian Feng? He could understand for Meng Tianzheng to summon Ming Yue because she was his proudest disciple. No one could compare to her.

Therefore, Meng Tianzheng must have arranged her whereabouts a long time ago.

What about Lian Feng? She had long given up on fighting for the Heaven Mending Goddess, so why was Meng Tianzheng doing this?

Reality proved that Ye Qiu was thinking too much. Although Lian Feng had given up on the Goddess, it didn't mean that Meng Tianzheng would give up on her. Her talent, the green lotus in her body, and her potential were endless.

Perhaps in Meng Tianzheng's heart, she was still the best successor of the Heaven Mending Goddess. Therefore, no matter if she gave up or not, Meng Tianzheng would not blame her. Her entire life seemed to have grown up under Meng Tianzheng's arrangements. Therefore, Meng Tianzheng couldn't blame her and ignore her because she had done something wrong.

This was more like an elder's selfless love for his Junior. He could tolerate everything.

Ye Qiu didn't wait for Lian Feng to return until night fell. He gradually understood that she might have already left the divine mountain.

"Master, it's getting late. You should rest." Lin Qingzhu quietly walked behind Ye Qiu and reminded him softly.

Tomorrow was the beginning of the Heaven Mending Assembly. As the Heaven Mending Deity, Ye Qiu had many troublesome things to resolve. Today's episode did not cause much of a commotion. Ye Qingxuan had long left and returned to his Cave Abode to cultivate. He maintained his peak state to face tomorrow's bitter battle.

Linglong followed behind Lin Qingzhu. She stuck her head out from behind and secretly sized up her master. She whispered, "Senior Sister, why does Master look so lonely? Also, why isn't Mistress back yet?"

"Linglong, don't spout nonsense. Perhaps Mistress will be back tomorrow morning." Lin Qingzhu reprimanded her. Then, she looked at her master and said, "Master, the guests have already been arranged to stay. Although there are many people, it's alright. We still have many empty rooms on the mountain, and there aren't many disciples. They can stay there."

After hearing Lin Qingzhu's report, Ye Qiu turned around and smiled. He nodded in satisfaction. "Yes, well done. Disciple, I'm very at ease in leaving the Violet Cloud Training Hall to you. You've never disappointed me." After sweeping away the wild imaginations, Ye Qiu no longer hesitated and asked, "By the way, tomorrow is the start of the event. Are you prepared?

"As the head disciple of Violet Cloud, you have to know that you shoulder the honor of my Violet Cloud Training Hall and represent my Violet Cloud Training Hall. You can't lose this battle."

Lin Qingzhu said with an incomparably firm expression, "Master, don't worry. I'm already prepared. I won't let my guard down. I'll face the enemy in my peak state and not embarrass my sect."

"So is Linglong." Linglong also echoed. At this moment, she was very excited. She kept waving her small fists as if she had been injected with chicken blood.

Actually, her performance was right. She could finally hit someone without needing to compensate. Moreover, her master did not object. How could she not be excited? Her nature carried the temperament of war. It was left behind by her personality in her previous life and could not be changed.

Perhaps the foundation in her previous life was prepared to make her a Valkyrie, so she left behind this warlike style.

"Haha… Alright! Actually, you don't have to give yourself too much pressure. As the chief head disciple, there's a high chance that you won't have anything to do in tomorrow's first battle. Let your junior sisters go up and play first. However, if anyone challenges you, as my head disciple, I need you to remember my words."

"Master, please speak!" Lin Qingzhu's expression was incomparably solemn. She wanted to listen to her master and value him greatly.

"Beat him until he smokes!" Ye Qiu looked at her and said seriously.

This group of little brats dares to challenge my head disciple? What a joke. Don't I want my reputation? If she didn't be ruthless, there would definitely be more small Karami challenges. At this rate, Lin Qingzhu would have to deal with so many opponents every day. Wouldn't she be exhausted?

Therefore, if they wanted to fight, she would beat them to the point of being a cripple.

"Yay! Linglong is the best at this. Master, let me do it." Before Lin Qingzhu could respond, Linglong couldn't sit still anymore and shouted excitedly.

"Haha, alright. Linglong, play to your heart's content in the first battle tomorrow, but you can't lose."

Ye Qiu rubbed her little head dotingly. Linglong replied loudly, "I promise to complete Master's instructions. I won't stop until smoke comes out."

"Pfft," Lin Qingzhu was amused. Was this little fellow serious? How could a person smoke? Wasn't this beating him to death?

In the past two months, Linglong had not cultivated well at all and had been following Ye Wuhen around. However, when she just returned yesterday, Ye Qiu checked her cultivation and was especially shocked.

This little fellow did not need to cultivate at all. She did not understand how to either. Her blood carried a fighting spirit. As long as she fought and kept fighting, her strength would increase.

After fooling around with Ye Wuhen for a few months, not only did her cultivation not stagnate, but she even leaped to the Endless Realm and successfully opened the twelve Heavenly Sanctums.

Good lord! As expected of you, little cheater!

Ye Qiu vaguely remembered that when he first saw her in the Great Desolate World, she was still a little loli with innate brute force. Her face was dirty and she only liked roasted sweet potatoes.

In the blink of an eye, she had already become a famous female War God. It was like a dream. Decades passed in the blink of an eye. Linglong was actually close to twenty years old, but her body and temperament were still like a child.

Of course, Ye Qiu knew very well that it was because of the seal on her body. She did not grow up because she wanted to maintain her best innocence. She maintained a childlike heart and kept rising.

Only this childlike heart could make her remain unmoved in the face of desire and power in the future. It wasn't that she couldn't grow up, but she didn't want to! She didn't want to lose this happy and carefree child.

This was the night before the storm. The divine mountain was peaceful, but everyone knew very well that when the sun rose tomorrow, a violent storm would baptize the entire divine mountain.
