Looking at Ling Qingya’s charming face even as she slept, Ye Luo’s gaze was filled with a thick tenderness. At this mont in his heart, he already considered Ling Qingya to be his true woman, even his wife.
He stretched out his other hand to touch Ling Qingya’s smooth cheeks, his lips curled into a smile.
But Ling Qingya’s long eyelashes fluttered, and her eyes slowly opened, looking at Ye Luo with a sleepy expression. Then her pretty face blushed, and she glared at Ye Luo.
"You beast, you don’t know how to be gentle with won at all."
"I rember last night you were wilder than , turning into a knight riding on top of , yelling ’I want, I want’ non-stop," teased Ye Luo.
"Stop talking!" Ling Qingya glared at Ye Luo irritably and then covered her face with the blanket, too embarrassed to show herself.
Ling Qingya hadn’t expected herself to have such a wild side. Perhaps it was because she had repressed her feelings for so long that they had suddenly burst out.
After being affectionate with Ling Qingya in bed for a while, Ye Luo got up. He planned to return to Zhonghai today as Luo Jingxuan was waiting for him there. Of course, before leaving, he naturally had to say goodbye to so people; he couldn’t just leave like that.
Ye Luo contacted Situ Luoyun and Shi Yanran, informing them that he was leaving Capital City. Both won said they would go to Zhonghai imdiately, especially since Situ Luoyun had always been in Zhonghai.
Having co back to Capital City only to celebrate her grandfather’s birthday, Situ Luoyun naturally intended to return to Zhonghai. As for Shi Yanran, it was because she had promised Ye Luo to beco the spokesperson for i Yue Company’s products, so she planned to head to Zhonghai.
Ye Luo also made a trip to the Leng Family, t with Leng Pengzhan and Leng Ruobing, and after chatting with them for a while and informing them of his departure from Capital City, he was ready to leave.
"Ye Luo, I have sothing to tell you," Leng Ruobing said, looking at Ye Luo suddenly.
"What is it?" Ye Luo asked, sowhat puzzled.
"During this period, practice your cultivation diligently. In a little over a month, there will be a selection competition within the Special Security Bureau, and you will need to participate."
"A selection competition? For what?" Ye Luo was a bit stunned.
Leng Ruobing glanced at Ye Luo and said, "You should know about the Hidden Sect, right?"
"A little," Ye Luo nodded.
"In the Hidden Sect, every ten years there’s a major tournant called the Youth Leaderboard Competition. All the participants are from the younger generation of the Hidden Sect under the age of thirty. Anyone who places in the top ten or the top three will receive ample rewards."
"They could even earn admittance into so of the Hidden Sect’s Great Sects, becoming chosen talents of the Hidden Sect. This year, a new Youth Leaderboard Competition is going to be held. Our Special Security Bureau, after communicating with those above, has decided to select three young experts to participate in this year’s competition," Ling Ruobing said in a serious tone.
"So that’s how it is; this selection competition must be for the purpose of choosing those three spots," Ye Luo couldn’t help but say.
"Exactly."
Leng Ruobing replied, "Originally, there was no selection competition because the decision from above was to directly pick the three strongest young martial artists from the Tian Group of the Special Security Bureau to participate in the Qing List competition. But after the team leader and bureau chief discussed it, they established this selection competition. You and I will both participate, and our biggest opponents will be those young masters from the Tian Group."
"The Tian Group?" Ye Luo’s expression narrowed as he glanced at Leng Ruobing, "What’s so special about this Tian Group? It seems quite mysterious and very formidable."
"The Tian Group is the strongest among the Special Security Bureau’s four groups: Tian, Di, Xuan, and Huang. In fact, so masters in the Tian Group are beyond even Bureau Chief Zhao’s control and only answer to a few high-ranking officials. It can be said that though the Tian Group belongs to the Special Security Bureau, it has already transcended its jurisdiction."
"Many masters in the Tian Group belong to hidden experts from Huaxia and rarely show themselves. Especially the younger generation, who are carefully selected from all over Huaxia for their exceptional martial talents and are specially trained."
"Their talents and strengths are both incredibly formidable. Based on the information I’ve received, the strongest of the younger generation in the Tian Group is said to have already stepped into the Half-Saint Realm, and that was a year ago. How strong they may be now, nobody knows."
As Leng Ruobing spoke one point after another, Ye Luo gained an understanding of the Tian Group. However, at the sa ti, he was extrely surprised; he hadn’t expected the Tian Group to be so powerful that soone from the younger generation had already reached the Half-Saint Realm. This martial talent was indeed frightening.
"It looks like securing one of those three spots won’t be easy. I think I won’t participate in the Qing List competition," Ye Luo said with a twist of his lips.
Leng Ruobing frowned slightly and glanced at Ye Luo, saying, "The Qing List competition represents the honor of every martial artist. How can you not participate? Moreover, it’s a matter of honor for our Earth Group as well. Especially since the top ten in the competition are rewarded handsoly with elixirs, cultivation technique manuals, and even powerful weapons. There are also vast amounts of Spirit Stones as rewards. Don’t you want these?"
"Spirit Stones!"
Ye Luo was surprised upon hearing these two words, not expecting that the rewards for the Qing List competition included Spirit Stones, which would be of considerable help to his cultivation.
Having said this, Leng Ruobing piqued his interest again. Besides, he wanted to witness just how formidable these so-called geniuses from the hidden sects really were.
"Alright, I will participate in this selection competition. One month is enough ti," said Ye Luo with narrowed eyes. Within this month, as long as he broke through to the Innate Late Stage, or managed to open the fourth major ridian, his combat strength would be enough to combat or even defeat those at the Innate Peak Stage.
By then, if he further strengthened his various techniques, even facing soone from the Half-Saint Realm, he would have a certain level of confidence. After all, his Nine Major ridians allowed him to have the ability to fight above his level.
Moreover, the cultivation techniques he practiced were all top-notch. If it ca to it, he could just return to that Mysterious Valley and ditate in seclusion for a while. With abundant Spiritual Energy and the help of those Spiritual dicines, it wouldn’t be difficult for him to break through to the Innate Late Stage.
He had only been suppressing his realm forcibly, otherwise, when he absorbed Shi Yanran’s cold energy, he would have been able to break through to the Innate Late Stage then.
"Good, I hope we both can participate in the Qing List competition together," Leng Ruobing said coolly.
"It seems you’re quite confident about yourself," Ye Luo remarked with so astonishnt.
Leng Ruobing’s eyes condensed, and she erupted with a powerful aura. A bone-chilling coldness spread, making even Ye Luo shiver involuntarily. He hurriedly circulated his Nine Yang Mystic Art to resist the cold air.
