Chapter 15: Let Chrysanthemum and Peach Blossom Bloom Together (1)
Long, long ago.
At least, it was a long time ago for An Lan.
She had specially performed ‘Thousands of Flowers’ on Bai Lian, leaving behind a seed that belonged to her.
That seed wouldn’t grow, and it couldn’t monitor Bai Lian’s every move.
But with that seed marking the direction, An Lan could emerge from Bai Lian’s body anytime, relying on the mysterious power of Thousands of Flowers.
But…
Just today.
Suddenly, An Lan couldn’t sense the seed anymore!
It was sudden, as if someone had cut off the power to the router.
[Your disciple Bai Lian has logged off.]
There were only two possibilities that could trigger this result:
One, Bai Lian had entered a special place where she could be shielded from An Lan’s senses.
The second one—Bai Lian… is dead!
An Lan dared not think too much.
She could only continually chop down those chaotic thoughts surging up in her mind, as if battling a tidal wave.
But with each chop, the thoughts became more and more chaotic, until, eventually, they took the shape of Bai Lian.
“…”
An Lan’s right hand shivered uncontrollably.
She squatted down, trying to pick up the cup she had accidentally knocked over.
Once.
Failed.
Twice.
Still failed.
Not even the handle of the cup could she hold firmly.
“Pa—”
The next moment, An Lan used too much force and broke the cup she had used for decades.
The brown shards scattered chaotically across the ground.
It was as broken and fragmented as her past.
Of course, her hands wouldn’t be cut—her cultivation base made it easy to repair the cup.
But…
“It’s still broken…”
An Lan stared blankly at the debris scattered around.
Her heart gradually stopped beating.
She clenched her right fist, her knuckles turning white, as if a layer of powder had been applied to them.
She bit her lips hard, and her originally pale lips suddenly filled with blood, turning a shade so red it almost seemed terrifying.
A dead silence filled the cave.
It was as cold as a morgue, the chill penetrating deep into her bones.
However, the silence didn’t last long.
After about twenty seconds, An Lan, who had been crouching on the ground, suddenly stood up.
There was no expression on her face anymore.
Avatar.
She remembered—Bai Lian had given each Martial Sister an avatar!
An Lan’s Divine Sense quickly spread out.
Like a blazing fire in the wilderness, this unguarded action immediately caught the attention of the Blood Tree Patriarch and Jue Yunzi.
“What the hell is this?”
They were frightened.
They had been confident after breaking through to the Transmigration Stage, but just from a distance, the flames erupting from Qiongming Peak made them feel as though their souls were about to be crushed into ashes.
What a mighty force!
Before it, they were as insignificant as dust.
“Is it Bai Lian?”
That thought crossed their minds.
When they tried to explore, however, the flame had already dissipated.
They didn’t find anything!
An Lan remained silent.
Just now, Bai Lian’s avatars had suddenly dispersed.
The several foolish disciples ran out of their house one after another, forming a circle—some in amazement, some anxious, others fearful.
No one knew where Bai Lian had gone.
“You traitor, why did you leave without telling me? If you had told me before you left…”
Is there any problem that she couldn’t solve in the East Divine Land?
An Lan was in a state of confusion.
If Bai Lian were standing before her now, she would turn her over and ride on her back to teach her a lesson.
But this, after all, was just an idle fancy.
An Lan flew swiftly away from Qiongming Peak.
This world is vast, but nothing could stop her from finding Bai Lian!
Even if she had to turn the entire East Divine Land upside down, she wouldn’t back down!
Xiao Jinse, in a state of panic, first went to An Lan’s cave.
When she didn’t find An Lan, she sought Yan Yue’s help, narrowly preventing a disaster for the East Divine Land.
“Bai Lian?” Yan Yue asked. “Two days ago, she asked me what happened to the Tianji sect.”
An Lan quickly picked up on the keywords, her ears monitoring every word being spoken.
She asked around for information, eventually narrowing down her destination to Qingxu.
If Bai Lian is dead…
She wants everyone there to be buried with her!
“Wait for me.”
After a low hum, An Lan plunged straight into the endless chaos of emptiness.
Not long after she left, the Martial Sisters, led by Xiao Jinse, set off for the Tianji sect.
“The Second Elder Martial Sister, the eldest Elder Martial Sister is still alive.”
On the Flying Magic Tools, Yu Ying stood up immediately, trying to comfort Xiao Jinse, who was sitting uneasily, looking around.
Xiao Jinse was so frantic she grabbed Yu Ying’s shoulder.
“How can you make me calm down? Elder Martial Sister’s avatar just broke, Elder Martial Sister, she…”
The air seemed to freeze.
The only thing still moving was Xiao Jinse’s sobbing.
Su Youwei curled up in the corner of the wall, silent.
The jade rabbit’s ears drooped, soft and cuddly like melting ice cream.
Ling Xuan lay on the ground, head tilted slightly to the side, eyes dull—nearly dead.
Long time.
Xiao Jinse finally let go of Yu Ying.
She bowed her head and apologized, “I’m sorry, Fourth Martial Sister. I shouldn’t have lost my temper with you.”
“I don’t mind.”
Yu Ying shook her head.
Of course, she could understand the thoughts of the other Martial Sisters.
[If roles were reversed, I’d be just as nervous!]
But she wasn’t just telling white lies to be kind.
Due to her equal contract with Elder Martial Sister Bai Lian, her soul was linked to Bai Lian’s via a two-way bridge.
Though she couldn’t share her joy with Bai Lian, it was still very easy to sense her presence.
Elder Martial Sister Bai Lian…
Soft.
Warm.
Whether wrapping her up or being wrapped by her, it felt very comfortable.
This feeling lingered, meaning Elder Martial Sister Bai Lian was still well!
After much hesitation, Yu Ying decided to keep quiet.
She might appear a bit dull and slow, but she wasn’t foolish.
She wasn’t just telling lies to ease the others’ pain.
What mattered now was—would Elder Martial Sister Bai Lian recover quickly?
Would she be brought back soon?
No!
What worried Yu Ying more was the so-called “square accounts after the autumn harvest.”
That’s human nature!
If the roles were reversed, her Martial Sisters would definitely feel differently when Bai Lian returned safely.
[What? The Fourth Martial Sister secretly signed an equal contract with Elder Martial Sister Bai Lian?]
[Isn’t the Equal Contract, “You in me, me in you”?]
[Equality contract (×)]
[Love contract (✓)]
[How dare you!]
What a mess.
As Yu Ying thought about it, her body trembled.
They would certainly try to suppress her, forcing her to break the contract with Bai Lian.
What would she do?
This was bad!
After experiencing the bliss of the soul during the contract, Yu Ying could never forget that feeling.
She wasn’t going to break it, no matter what!
Humph.
Faced with such a situation, even the most honest person would get angry!
In short, as long as Bai Lian didn’t despise her, Yu Ying would never voluntarily break the connection.
She sighed heavily.
“Elder Martial Sister Bai Lian will be fine!”
She looked Xiao Jinse in the eye, standing firm.
Xiao Jinse was moved by Yu Ying’s sincerity.
What bad thoughts could the Fourth Martial Sister have?
She was always so strong, even when her heart was filled with sadness, she still comforted others!
Sigh.
Xiao Jinse quietly sighed.
In comparison to the Fourth Martial Sister, she was truly inferior.
She had to steel herself and be the qualified Second Elder Martial Sister!
Hug.
(.づ◡﹏◡)づ.
Xiao Jinse opened her arms and hugged Yu Ying.
“Yes.”
She nodded gently, even encouraging Yu Ying in return.
“Elder Martial Sister Bai Lian is a star in the sky. How can the stars fall so easily? She must be fine!”
“…”
Pa pa pa.
Xiao Jinse gently patted Yu Ying’s back and butt.
