Chapter 32 Part 2: Bai Lian’s Water Is Very Deep, You Can’t Hold On (2)
It was her courage to step forward and shoulder the blame that drew all of her master’s fury towards her.
But she wouldn’t thank Qing Luan for it either.
This wicked woman was actually planning to do something harmful to Elder Martial Sister Bai Lian while she was unconscious!
When you first arrived at the Qiongming Peak, I sensed that you were not a good person, and I was correct.
Thinking thus, Yu Ying became upset again.
She also wanted to stop Qing Luan, but her body wouldn’t permit it.
She explained, “Master, while fighting alongside Elder Martial Sister Bai Lian, she was severely injured, and I nearly fainted due to exhaustion. I, I could only watch helplessly.”
She didn’t lie.
The intensity of that battle far exceeded imagination.
If she hadn’t received the inheritance of the Original Dragon, which made her body exceptionally strong, she would likely have been defeated from the very beginning, let alone helping Elder Martial Sister Bai Lian achieve victory.
An Lan stared at Yu Ying for a moment before averting her gaze.
She nodded slightly.
“Very well.”
“I’ll trust you for now.”
Her fourth disciple is usually quiet; indeed, she is an honest child born into difficult circumstances, unlike a wicked woman who would allow Bai Lian to suffer.
The main target for attack now remains Qing Luan.
Eat my great lance, stupid bird!
Qing Luan, dejected, and Yu Ying, startled as a fledgling, were thus led away by An Lan.
They hurried away, and the demonic beasts of Mount Sanwei remained completely unaware of the great upheaval that had occurred.
An Lan took considerable time to arrive because she searched along the way and didn’t want to overlook any location.
When she returned, she moved with remarkable speed.
With just one tear, one entrance, and one exit.
Upon opening her eyes once more, Qing Luan realized that she had arrived outside the towering mountains where the Duxian sect was situated.
“???”
How.
Qing Luan’s mouth was slightly agape.
Her current cultivation base can already be compared to a descended Immortal, but even so, she cannot instantly traverse distances of more than ten East Divine Lands.
How did Master An Lan manage to accomplish this?
She looked at An Lan, who maintained an indifferent appearance, and not a drop of sweat could be seen on her face.
Qing Luan’s heart couldn’t help but sink.
She should be grateful that she didn’t resist Master An Lan’s commands.
Qing Luan’s head drooped even more profoundly.
Below Yunluo Peak.
An Lan pointed to Yu Ying, who had already transformed into human form, and said, “You return to the Qiongming Peak first.”
“Yes.”
Yu Ying, who was already so nervous that her legs trembled, fled as if she were flying.
Her only hope now is that Elder Martial Sister Bai Lian will not reveal what happened on the Cloud Chasing Boat.
As for other matters, such as the fate of Elder Martial Sister Qing Luan…
She doesn’t care!
Go, go.
“Humph!”
An Lan snorted.
“Come with me to ascend.”
Qing Luan dared not resist and could only obediently follow behind An Lan.
The path up the mountain is very long, exceedingly so.
5 a.m.
The sky was just beginning to brighten with the whitish glow of dawn.
On the mountain path of Yunluo Peak, the passing disciples greeted An Lan.
“Master An Lan.”
“Master…”
“Hey?”
And then, finally, someone turned their attention to Qing Luan.
That was a girl with red pupils, and behind her ears were inserted several pieces of bluebird feathers as ornaments.
But why does this face seem so familiar?
“Isn’t that Elder Martial Sister Qing Luan?!”
“What?”
Has Elder Martial Sister Qing Luan, who disappeared for three years, truly returned?
Well.
Is this the performance of “The Return of the King” about to begin?
The news quickly spread among the gossipmongers, and at that moment Elder Xu Tingxue, who was sorting documents inside the hall, suddenly received the news.
“What did you say?”
She stared in astonishment at the steward who brought the message.
The Jade slip in her hand fell to the ground, as if she hadn’t noticed at all.
“The news came from a disciple who went on an early patrol outside. As Master An Lan was nearby, it must be reliable.”
Da.
Master Xu took a step back, accidentally sweeping the objects off the table. She pressed her chest gently and remained silent for a long time.
Come back.
Qing Luan has come back unexpectedly.
Moreover, it was Martial Sister An Lan who found her and brought her back.
She used to dislike Martial Sister An Lan, thinking that she was a troublemaker. But after Bai Lian grew up, she realized that Martial Sister An Lan was actually a skilled master, so she approached her and asked for advice.
Now she realized that she was completely mistaken.
Martial Sister An Lan is not a mediocre person. You see, she always accomplishes great feats silently and without fanfare.
Elder Xu, without saying a word, and even when one of her shoes fell off, didn’t care and ran out of the main hall.
“Martial Sister Xi!”
Elder Gaoyi shouted once.
Jue Yunzi immediately stopped him, “Hey, it’s fine. Martial Sister Xu is in good spirits now; there is no need to remind her of such trifles.”
Elder Gaoyi nodded in agreement with what was said.
He was also sincerely happy for Martial Sister Xu!
Qing Luan has been intelligent since childhood.
She was able to return, which is a positive development.
The only thing to be mindful of is not to let outsiders know that she is the real Qing Luan.
“Such troublesome matters can be contemplated later.”
“Martial Brother, you are right.”
Gaoyi smiled and nodded.
Jue Yunzi gently stroked his beard and gazed out the window.
The time had come for early winter, and the sky appeared slightly overcast. However, amidst the clouds, there was a delightful glimpse of light.
Martial Sister Xu’s state of mind is probably similar, he presumed.
In these past two years, he increasingly felt that Martial Sister An Lan was both conscientious and endearing.
No wonder their master doted on her so much when he was still alive.
Jue Yunzi laughed, and as he continued to laugh, he noticed that An Lan, along with Elder Xu and the others, had appeared in the open space outside the window.
With a magic array shielding them, he couldn’t hear the conversation between the two, but something was amiss with the current situation.
An Lan, who usually had an excellent appearance, was seen at this moment standing with her left hand on her hip and pointing her right hand at Elder Xu.
Meanwhile, Qing Luan trembled as she nestled in the arms of Elder Xu.
This is the rhythm for a fight.
What in the world?
Jue Yunzi stood up abruptly.
Fortunately, the two of them didn’t actually begin fighting, but their facial expressions looked somewhat unpleasant.
Finally, Elder Xu repeatedly apologized with deep bows, and An Lan’s anger seemed to dissipate.
“Humph!”
An Lan finally departed.
Elder Xu stared at Qing Luan, who was bowing her head and apologizing, for a long time before leading her back to the hall.
“Martial Sister Xu, what happened? How did you end up arguing with Martial Sister An Lan?” asked Jue Yunzi.
“Martial Brother.”
Elder Xu let out a sigh.
An Lan’s words left a deep mark in her heart, like a scratch.
At that moment, she was immersed in the joy of reuniting with her favorite disciple, when suddenly An Lan shouted loudly.
“Xu Tingxue, if you cannot teach your disciple properly, I’ll teach her a lesson for you!”
“Huh?”
She was in a daze.
I am not very good at teaching disciples, but it is not appropriate for you to come and snatch my disciple away right from the start, is it?
An Lan sneered, “Ask your precious disciple what she has done. If she won’t tell you, then I will.”
Then her dear disciple confused her even more.
“You, you, you…”
Well.
You actually rode atop Bai Lian in front of An Lan and even removed your shirt.
If it was she who witnessed it, she would also be furious!
As her momentum weakened, Elder Xu no longer dared to refute An Lan.
She could only listen to An Lan scolding her, and then apologize repeatedly on behalf of her disciple.
“I will definitely teach Qing Luan a proper lesson.”
“Sister Martial An Lan, if you intend to punish Qing Luan, include me in the punishment as well!”
“I intensified my educational efforts regarding Qing Luan when I returned.”
After much persuasion, An Lan’s anger subsided by half.
Alas.
Elder Xu let out a sigh and awakened from her reminiscences.
She forced a smile, “My incompetent disciple somehow fell in love with Bai Lian. There were some complications during this period, which happened to be witnessed by Martial Sister An Lan, leading to unnecessary misunderstandings.”
“…”
Jue Yunzi’s lips slightly parted.
Qing Luan was greatly wounded.
Even the sect leader knows about this matter; she feared the marital prospects between her and Elder Martial Sister Bai Lian had been completely severed.
She only wanted to drink herself into a stupor, to release the bitterness in her heart.
Elder Xu said, “Sect leader, I will take Qing Luan back first.”
Jue Yunzi nodded and said, “Since there’s nothing important occurring today, Martial Sister Xu, you may go.”
Elder Xu led Qing Luan away by the hand.
Jue Yunzi and Elder Gaoyi exchanged a glance.
This lily flower is going to wither even before its buds bloom.
Qing Luan thought the same way, so she was a little stunned when Elder Xu suddenly halted her steps.
Was the master intending to discipline her here?
“Qing Luan.”
“Master.”
“You’re too eager.”
“Hey?”
“I mean, you were too impatient. You haven’t even obtained Bai Lian’s approval yet; how could you possibly do something like that?”
“Huh?”
Qing Luan was bewildered.
Master, what are you saying, Master!
Elder Xu gripped Qing Luan’s hand with a slightly excessive amount of strength.
Both of them don’t have lovers. Why can’t Qing Luan like Bai Lian?!
Now is the era of free love.
She thinks Qing Luan and Bai Lian make an excellent match.
Bai Lian holds the title of Immortal Emperor, while Qing Luan remains Qing Luan Divine Bird.
“Qing Luan, I support you! I’m your strongest backing!”
“?”
Qing Luan blinked hard, thinking she must be dreaming, for this turn of events seemed to have gone astray.
But Elder Xu’s expression was too serious, not as if she were joking, nor as if she were enraged.
Elder Xu’s ideas were exceedingly simple.
In the past, she was always suppressed by An Lan, and now she is going to assist her disciple in “suppressing” An Lan’s disciple in turn!
Therefore, she must educate Qing Luan well.
“Come, follow me into the house; today we begin at the *** Education!”
Only by mastering enough skills can one firmly keep Bai Lian under control and unable to resist!
“This…”
Qing Luan couldn’t utter a word.
In the end, still in a state of confusion, she followed along.
But there was a question she wanted to ask, yet dared not ask:
Master, I remember that you never had a lover before. Do you truly understand *** Education?
…
The Qiongming Peak.
Yu Ying, who had just returned, was immediately surrounded.
“Where is Elder Martial Sister?”
“Why hasn’t Elder Martial Sister returned?”
Xiao Jinse, Su Youwei, the jade rabbit, and Little Ling Xuan each took up a position, completely blocking Yu Ying’s escape route.
For a moment, she thought the rain-like fists would smash her into Yu Ying sauce.
But soon she calmed down.
It’s not a significant problem!
The Martial Sisters on the Qiongming Peak could not possibly know what she and Bai Lian had done.
So say it.
One must find a discreet and secure location to perform good deeds.
Yu Ying conveyed, “Elder Martial Sister is currently by our master’s side, and they have gone to Yunluo Peak in search of Elder Xu.”
Xiao Jinse and the others wanted to ask a few more questions, but suddenly received a telepathic message from An Lan.
“Come into my cave; today I will teach you a lesson!”
