Chapter 1153: Mountain Qingsang
Liu Ming glanced around the room and sat down on the chair.
Jia Lan closed the door, walked to the table with light steps, picked up the red clay tea stove and poured a cup of tea for Liu Ming, then she sat down beside the bed.
Liu Ming reached out to pick up the teacup and sniffed it, only to feel a burst of refreshing fragrance. He couldn’t help recalling the scenes he had experienced since meeting Jia Lan.
Jia Lan looked at Liu Ming with flickering eyes, but she didn’t speak.
They just sat in silence, and the whole room became quiet.
A faint sigh came from Jia Lan.
The voice was low and inaudible, but in the room at this moment, it was extremely clear.
“I…” Liu Ming came back to his senses.
“Senior Fellow Apprentice Liu, the tea is cold. Let me pour you another cup.” Before Liu Ming finished speaking, Jia Lan stood up and said, but there was a hint of resentment in her tone.
“It’s okay. It is a little hot outside, and the tea is cold enough to quench my thirst.” Liu Ming said slowly and drank the spiritual tea.
Seeing this, Jia Lan’s face looked complicated. She paused, walked to the table, lifted the red clay tea stove, and filled the teacup in Liu Ming’s hand again.
At this moment, a big hand stretched out from the other side, grabbing Jia Lan’s wrist.
!
Jia Lan’s delicate body shook. She turned to look at Liu Ming, but she didn’t break free.
“Junior Sister Apprentice Jia Lan, Master Yin went to Piaomiao Peak earlier, because…” Liu Ming sighed.
“Senior Fellow Apprentice Liu, Jia Lan’s apt.i.tude is mediocre. My cultivation is still at the Pseudo Pellet State. Now the senior has been favored by the high-level of the sect and becomes an esoteric disciple. Jia Lan… Jia Lan is indeed unmatched for you. “Jia Lan interrupted Liu Ming, and her tone was a little colder.
“Junior Sister Apprentice has misunderstood. Regarding the postponement of the marriage contract, it is not what you think. Now that alien race is invading our continent, I’m going to put all my thoughts on improving my strength as much as I can. Only by becoming stronger that you and I can survive the catastrophe and I can better protect the people around me. When this matter is over, I will go to Piaomiao Peak, propose the marriage to Master Tianyin and Senior Yuyin Zi, and formally marry you.” After listening to Jia Lan’s words while looking at the peerless beautiful face, Liu Ming felt hot in his heart, then he said seriously.
“Senior Fellow Apprentice Liu, is this true? But…” Jia Lan’s beautiful eyes lit up when she heard this. She couldn’t help feeling a little worried.
“Although I, Liu Ming, am not a gentleman, I will never go back on my words. Could it be that junior sister apprentice can’t trust me?” Liu Ming’s eyes sparkled while saying resolutely.
“Of course, I believe in you.” Jia Lan looked at Liu Ming with a pair of wonderful eyes, nodded, and said softly.
In the following time, Liu Ming chatted casually with Jia Lan for a while before leaving.
Liu Ming came out of Jia Lan’s room, heaving a sigh of relief. Getting Jia Lan’s understanding seemed to have solved the knot in his heart. He walked to the third floor and came to his room.
Just this moment, outside his room, a graceful girl in a silver shirt was standing there. It was Long Yanfei.
“Junior Fellow Apprentice Liu, what are you talking about with Sister Jia Lan for so long?” Long Yanfei looked at Liu Ming and asked with a spurious smile.
“Senior Sister Apprentice Long, stop being sarcastic.” Liu Ming shook his head and smiled wryly.
“Sister Jia Lan told me all about you and her. Although your status is different now, sister Jia Lan is a good girl, so don’t let her down.” Long Yanfei suddenly put away the playful look and said seriously.
“I know what kind of person Junior Sister Apprentice Jia Lan is, and I will never let her down.” Liu Ming said.
“If that’s the case, then I don’t need to say anything more. Take care.” Long Yanfei raised her eyebrows, turned and walked toward her room.
Liu Ming looked at Long Yanfei’s back, hesitated for a moment and called her out.
“Senior Sister Apprentice Long, wait a minute.”
“Is there anything else?” Long Yanfei turned around and glanced strangely at Liu Ming upon hearing this.
“If senior sister apprentice is free, why don’t you stay in my room for a while. There are some things that I want to talk to senior sister apprentice.” Liu Ming said solemnly. He opened the door, making a gesture to invite her in.
“Oh, since that’s the case, I’ll stay for a while.”
After thinking about it, Long Yanfei still walked into Liu Ming’s room and sat down on the chair.
Liu Ming walked into the room, closed the door and activated a black sound-proof barrier.
Seeing Liu Ming being so solemn, Long Yanfei was naturally taken aback.
“Junior Fellow Apprentice Liu, this is…”
“What I want to talk about is actually related to Senior Liu Yin.” Liu Ming collected his thoughts and finally said.
“What, Ancestor Liu Yin?” Long Yanfei’s complexion changed drastically when she heard the words. She stood up abruptly.
“Senior Sister Apprentice Long, don’t be anxious. Just let me finish my words. This matter may sound unbelievable, but it is true. 30 years ago, I was chased by a Celestial State ghost general in the Evil Ghost Way. After that, I accidentally wandered into the deepest underworld…” Liu Ming immediately talked about his encounter with Yin Liu who was the reincarnation of Grandmaster Liu Yin.
“There are such things…” Long Yanfei listened to the whole process with a dazed look.
“Grandmaster Liu Yin is now a disciple of Serene King in the deepest underworld. He can no longer return to the Middle Sky Continent, so he entrusted me to take care of the Long Family. Grandmaster Liu Yin has a great enmity for me. If something happens to the Silver Spring Valley in the future, Senior Sister Apprentice Long can ask me for help. I won’t refuse it as long as it is within my capability.” Liu Ming promised seriously.
“Thank you for telling me about this matter. I will definitely tell my grandmother the truth about the Ancestor Liu Yin when I return. As for whether she believes it, I can’t say. After all, this matter is still too unbelievable.” After thinking for a long time, Long Yanfei let out a long breath. She bowed to Liu Ming deeply and said.
“Senior Sister Apprentice Long, you don’t have to be polite. It’s a pity that Senior Liu Yin and I were in a hurry, so I couldn’t bring back a token. Otherwise, it should be more credible.” Liu Ming also said with some regret.
After hearing this, Long Yanfei could only give a wry smile.
Perhaps it was because of hearing the news about Grandmaster Liu Yin, Long Yanfei left with a complicated expression after chatting with Liu Ming for a few more words.
After seeing Long Yanfei off, Liu Ming sat down cross-legged silently and began to practice with his eyes closed.
The flying boat was flying above the clouds. At this alt.i.tude, they were not afraid of encountering a large-scale surprise attack from the h.e.l.lish-Insect.
After several days and nights, the flying boat had come to the sky above a vast stretch of mountains.
On the front of the flying boat, Kun Yu sat cross-legged. There was a layer of bright yellow light on his body that connected with the array under him, controlling the flying boat to rush forward.
In the sky ahead, the shadows of several steep peaks appeared faintly.
Kun Yu launched a symbol into the building on the boat.
There was a flash of light in the entire building. A moment later, there was a series of footsteps, and all the Taiqing Sect disciples came down from it.
“Less than a thousand miles ahead, it is the Mountain Qingsang. You all get ready.” Kun Yu said in a deep voice
Hearing the words, the people present all looked toward the looming towering mountains in the distance and began to check their own weapons.
Now that they had arrived in Mountain Qingsang, they might encounter those vicious h.e.l.lish-Insect Clan at any time. In the Thousands Spirit Mountain Range battle a few days ago, everyone present had experienced the power of h.e.l.lish-Insect Clan, so naturally they would not be careless.
There were more than a dozen inner disciples, consisting of the inner disciples of Mystic Sky Peak, Tianjian Peak and Piaomiao Peak. Except for the 2 esoteric disciples, the Real Pellet State cultivators were only Shangguan Yanyu, Ling Yiyi and Long Yanfei. The rest were disciples at the Crystallization Period and Pseudo Pellet State.
Jia Lan checked her weapons and talismans, then she was relieved.
At this moment, a figure came to her side. It was Liu Ming.
“Although this mission may not be very dangerous, just in case, don’t stay too far away from me.” Liu Ming looked into Jia Lan’s eyes and whispered.
Jia Lan’s beautiful eyes flashed, then she nodded.
While everyone was preparing, the flying boat had already flown into a vast green mountain range. The geology of this mountain range was peculiar. The terrain was covered with a faint green color.
As soon as they entered the mountain range, Liu Ming felt that the surrounding wood attribute spirit became much denser.
“Mountain Qingsang is a large wood attribute spirit stone mineral vein. The Ye Family is actually a family established by the cultivators deployed by our sect. They have guarded the mineral vein here for generations.” Jia Lan seemed to see Liu Ming’s doubts, and she explained softly.
“You are quite well-informed. You even know about the Mountain Qingsang in details, much better than me.” Liu Ming was startled when he heard that, then he nodded and smiled.
“Not really. I followed my master to visit Haoran Academy more than 10 years ago. When we pa.s.sed by here, my master told me about this.” Jia Lan glanced at Liu Ming with a slight smile.
As for Liu Ming, Jia Lan couldn’t tell exactly how she felt about him.
As a mixed race of the human race and Sea Creature Clan, no matter whether she was in Savage Ghost Sect or returned to Sea Creature Clan, although she looked very great on the surface, she hid a loneliness in her heart.
Being between 2 races, for the sake of her own bloodline, she betrayed the Savage Ghost Sect and joined the Sea Creature Clan, but she was captured by Siren King later. She was almost taken over by another soul.
Although she had survived this series of dangerous experiences, what she longed for in her heart was still a peaceful life.
Perhaps it was precisely because Liu Ming was the first man who could give her such a sense of peace of mind, so these years, even though Liu Ming had always been indifferent to her, she was still able to wait silently.
