If it weren’t for her ruthless thods, today’s Qing Province would probably be no different from Purgatory.
Zhu Tongjun gazed at the clean array hub, expressions of confusion, doubt, suspicion, and surprise constantly flickering in her eyes.
So, Dao Rhy is exceedingly important.
Even more important than the Chaoyun Sect itself, then... why?
Why?
Why... did the Sect Leader dismiss the duty of collecting Dao Rhy with the Mountain Protection Array?
Indeed, just now, after the Sect Leader integrated Spiritual Power, she casually removed the technique central to the array for Dao Rhy... now, the Mountain Protection Array is no longer a facade, but genuinely serves to protect the realm of the Chaoyun Sect one hundred percent.
Zhu Tongjun seed calm, but only she knew the shock in her heart at this mont.
The Sect Leader actually doesn’t need to collect Dao Rhy anymore?
Has the sky fallen?
It might as well be the sky falling.
After all, if the original intent of founding the Chaoyun Sect is no longer needed... how should Qing Province proceed?
And what of the Demon Sect and Chaoyun Sect?
What about the two Qiankun Realm masters...
"...Phew."
Zhu Tongjun gently exhaled a breath of clarity, tossing away the mixed thoughts.
Such a major issue is not sothing she should be pondering; as Zhibai said, she should simply trust the Sect Leader.
Moreover, this change in the Sect Leader should be a good thing for the Chaoyun Sect.
Who in the world would want to be a pawn, even if it’s the pawn of soone they admire?
"So, the Sect Leader’s previous concern for ..."
Was it genuine?
Zhu Tongjun lowered her eyelids, unable to help but furrow her brows.
Collecting Dao Rhy for elevation leads to an incrental loss of emotion.
Now the Sect Leader’s emotions have returned, but she abandoned that Dao Rhy.
Does this indicate that this path is wrong?
She couldn’t understand, so she didn’t think about it.
After conveying the core ssage that the Sect Leader doesn’t need Dao Rhy to Li Zhibai, Zhu Tongjun cleared away the gloom in her eyes, donned the usual smile belonging to Zhu Pingniang, and surveyed the nurous top-grade Spirit Stones once left for collecting Dao Rhy.
So many Spirit Stones—if that Chang’an boy saw them, he’d surely be dying of envy.
Hmm, next ti there’s a chance, she’ll bring him here to have a look, and also tell him that these Spirit Stones can only be admired, not touched.
Watching him with that greedy look would certainly be amusing.
Hmm.
Zhu Tongjun’s figure flickered, and the Ice Blue Gilded Immortal Skirt vanished, replaced by the pitch-black glossy gown that Zhu Pingniang often wore in the Flower Moon Building.
Ti to track down that rascal and settle accounts.
Damn it, being so heavy-handed with his sister, he should be mindful of his skin.
——
"Ms. Qing, why are you so restless?" The yellow-clothed maiden stood behind Ah Qing, her deft hands softly massaging Ah Qing’s slender shoulders, speaking gently, "Sister, don’t be nervous; it’s rely a Sword Dance... I trust you, and besides, Pingniang is here, Young Master Xu is here too."
"Young Master Xu is here?" Ah Qing sighed lightly, "Indeed, he’s here... then what has been the aning of what I’ve done all these years?"
The yellow-clothed maiden observed the inexplicable emotions in Ah Qing’s eyes, not understanding, but obediently refrained from questioning, rely quietly doing what she should.
Ah Qing looked out the window.
Shi Qingjun’s actions, others might not see, but could she not see?
That woman actually really dismantled the technique and disregarded Dao Rhy?
After Xu Chang’an could so easily disperse the Dao Rhy Cage and perform "hero saving beauty," Dao Rhy, which once mattered most to her, fell from its divine pedestal.
Finding an upward path from Dao Rhy?
Yes, it can be found.
In these years, she indeed elevated quite a bit by collecting Dao Rhy from beneath the Abyss Sea, but as a Half-Demon, her feelings gradually disappeared as well.
But in order to find an upward path, she must do so.
However, Xu Chang’an’s appearance made her realize that the so-called Heavenly Dao Aura and Heavenly Dao Rhythms were no big deal, nothing compared to the faint rouge scent on Young Master.
Celestial Dao Prison, is it formidable?
Formidable, but the Heavenly Dao Rhythms, when encountering Xu Chang’an’s aura, were like mice seeing a primordial beast, breaking to pieces and scattering.
Thus, from that mont, realizing Dao Rhy was no longer supre, she lost her reverence for it in her heart.
Seeking a path upward from Dao Rhy?
What a joke.
Why not directly seek it from Xu Chang’an?
Dao Rhy cannot be seen or touched, but the young master is different.
Shi Qingjun withdrew her gaze, thinking that since she could discover these matters, Shi Qingjun with cultivation suppressing her, and better understanding Dao Rhy, probably would discover as well?
Therefore, Shi Qingjun abandoning Dao Rhy now could only be because of that Young Master Xu.
Could it be that Shi Qingjun was also saved heroically?
At that mont, Ah Qing couldn’t help but feel a bit annoyed; Dao Rhy or not, instead seed less important.
Shaking her head.
She didn’t know what the future held.
Shi Qingjun abandoned that track, and herself—is she to continue rging with Dao Rhy, pursuing the Supre Forgetting Emotions route?
Glancing at the obedient maiden beside her, Ah Qing thought that staying here now, shalessly performing a Sword Dance for Xu Chang’an later... probably is the answer she chose.
"...Finally, it’s fair." Ah Qing whispered.
Seeing that Shi Qingjun only now relinquished Dao Rhy, she realized that Xu Chang’an’s uniqueness wasn’t evident for long, so... the two finally rarely stood on the sa starting line in pursuit of a new path...
She wouldn’t lose.
With a smile and a lazy stretch, she glanced up at the High Heaven’s Immortal Sect.
Has Shi Qingjun descended the mountain?
Hard to say. But just retracting the technique for Dao Rhy in the array... doesn’t an she personally went to Beisang City.
Yet it does not hinder.
Rather, losing the central conflict, she wanted to peacefully talk with that woman.
Not that she wanted to be friends.
After competing for so many years, the grudges are intricately bound, not easily resolved.
Her wish to find a man for Shi Qingjun remained her heart’s desire.
...
Ah Qing was unaware that, at this mont, donning the veil anew, she sat in a pavilion in Beisang City, quietly watching the direction of the Demon Sect Holy Mountain.
Shi Qingjun: "..."
Dropping her eyelids.
At this mont, she pondered whether to have a proper talk with that woman.
Once, she viewed that woman as an enemy, for the path of Dao, you block , I block you, until death.
Even Shi Qingjun, given the chance, would surely press her down completely, granting no chance of recovery.
Thus, upon finding her own cultivation diminishing by two levels, she would worry about that side.
But now, freed from Dao Rhy’s influence, regaining feelings, she no longer single-mindedly pursued Dao, her heart surprisingly at peace.
Originally, it wasn’t such a big deal.
And embracing Dao Rhy was clearly not a good path... with Demon Race encircling and future calamities arising, she may need her assistance after all.
Hence, Shi Qingjun contemplated reconciliation with her.
But how could that woman, after competing against herself for so many years, suddenly believe that Dao Rhy wasn’t important?
Shi Qingjun knew very well how that girl disliked her.
So, Shi Qingjun considered one thing.
Whether to bring Young Master Xu along to visit the Demon Sect, showing herself?
If she dared to act against Young Master Xu, after suffering a setback, she would naturally believe.
"Hmm..."
ditating.
Perhaps letting that girl suffer a loss would be quite interesting?
"Should be... more amusing than eating petals." Shi Qingjun murmured.
——
——
When Zhu Pingniang’s gaze fell on the painted boat’s kitchen from afar, she gently twitched her eyes...
Is this trouble?
Why did that dead girl show up at such a crucial mont?
In the chaotic kitchen, Miss Lu was crying loudly while clutching her "corpse," eyes swollen from crying so much in a short ti.
And Xu Chang’an stood there, unsure what to do, as if stunned.
Zhu Pingniang: "..."
Seeing her girl crying so terribly, she suddenly felt so guilt, wondering whether to go over...
Always using a fake body with the girl, how could she explain? She felt quite faceless.
Maybe...
She should not go?
