"Sect Master?" Tan Feng and Gong Ningshui couldn't help but look at him in surprise, not quite understanding why Yu Ling had such a big reaction.

Yu Ling just remained silent and asked again after a long while: "She...is dead?"

"It should be like this... The abyss under the Fengmen Gorge is endless. Even a master of Huazun will die if he falls there, let alone a cultivator of Qi Nourishing Realm." Tan Feng sighed softly and hesitated before asking: "Sect Master

Sir, do you...know this disciple?"

Yu Ling lowered her eyes slightly, hiding some of the complexity in her heart, and her tone was still calm and authentic: "I met her by chance in the sect before, and I thought her talent was very good, but... it's a pity."

Tan Feng didn't think much about it. He nodded and said with deep understanding: "Indeed, if this girl doesn't die, with her diligent practice, she might become a Tongxuan cultivator in a few years. Alas."

But Gong Ningshui was suspicious. She always felt that it was not as simple as Yu Ling said. It was just that the black mask covered up all his expressions, and even Gong Ningshui couldn't get any clues from it.

The atmosphere fell silent for a moment, and Yu Ling couldn't help but think of that night ten months ago, and the girl by the river who was so clumsy that she couldn't even fly the wish lantern. He had only seen Lan Xinyu once, and it had been so long.

In the past, he had almost forgotten what she looked like, but that beautiful and peaceful night was the only thing he could never forget.

After all, this is the first New Year he has spent since he came to this world, and the person accompanying him is not a relative, a friend, or a subordinate, but an ordinary girl he just met. Listening to her story is the simplest and most simple thing.

A simple and simple wish. Just so plain and quiet, without smoke and fights, only the faint starlight and moonlight accompanied by the brilliance of thousands of wishing lanterns, like the most beautiful dream.

It was that day that he began to truly accept the world, no longer making himself seem out of place, but trying to blend in. However, the people who witnessed his spiritual transformation are no longer here.

This can't be said to be very sad, after all, he and the girl only met once, but no matter what, Yu Ling still had a touch of regret and desolation, so all his words turned into a "pity".

Perhaps the atmosphere was too heavy, but Gong Ningshui finally broke the silence: "Sir, Master, how long will you stay in Canglan City this time?"

Yu Ling came back to her senses immediately, suppressed Lan Xinyu's matters for the time being, and said in deep thought: "Anyway, I still have some things to do, so I will return to Nanmingzhou in February next year at the earliest, and... probably at the latest..."

It won’t be too late at night.”

If nothing else, Xue Mu's journey will last only three months. Although it sounds like it will be far away to another domain, the Ice Domain is actually in the northeast of the Hua Domain, past Canglan City.

Even with an inefficient means of transportation like a horse-drawn carriage, it only takes less than half a month. After all, Canglan Prefecture itself is located in the northern part of Huayu.

Tan Feng suddenly showed joy: "That's great. If the disciples in the sect know that the sect master is going back soon, they will definitely work harder to practice."

"There haven't been any big problems in the clan recently, right?"

"No, except for the accident in Fengmen Gorge, everything else developed normally. By the way, the Xuanzun master you invited, the sect leader, left for something, but soon a mysterious figure who always wore a cloak came to take over.

, it’s just that his cultivation level is slightly weaker, but anyway, our Dao Ling Sect has a good reputation, and no one in the southern part of Huayu will deliberately make things difficult for us, so you don’t have to worry.”

"That's what I said, but you can't let your guard down or be slack. I hope that when I go back next year, the Tongxuan masters in the sect can break through the ten-digit figure and completely bring the five or six small states nearby under control.

among.”

"Tin Feng will live up to his destiny!"

Seeing that he was full of confidence, Yu Ling turned to Gong Ningshui and asked, "What are your plans?"

"Well, Deputy Sect Master Qin plans to return to Nanmingzhou to take charge, and I plan to stay here. After all, Lingyun Pavilion is a commercial organization, and it can develop in more prosperous places, so I plan to move my focus to Canglan City."

Gong Ningshui spoke a little cautiously. After noticing that Yu Ling nodded, she secretly breathed a sigh of relief and her tone changed again.

He became calm and confident: "When Canglan City has a certain foundation, Lingyun Pavilion can spread to the south. If it can be connected with Nanmingzhou, most of the Chinese territory can be covered, and the benefits will be amazing by then.

However, the premise is that each branch must have enough experts to take charge, and this depends on Deputy Sect Master Qin providing me with manpower."

"Very good, you have done a good job, and the management of the past six months has been a big thank you to you." Yu Ling nodded slightly.

"The sect leader has given too much praise, this is all..." The two people hurriedly declined, but they were only halfway through their words when they were interrupted by Yu Ling waving her hands and saying: "There is no need to say more, I earned a lot of divine jade this time

, you should also pay attention to improving your own cultivation, otherwise you will wait until the day

The sect is developing rapidly, but you are still stuck in the Qi-nurturing realm, which is unjustifiable. Also, the academy is holding an exchange competition these days, which is a good time to sell elixirs and weapons. You might as well bring some to sell near the academy.

It will sell well.”

The two naturally expressed that they would step up their training. Yu Ling was not too worried about them becoming Tongxuan cultivators. After all, they could become the masters of a sect before and their talents were excellent. They were just limited by resources. Now they have the right ones.

Under the conditions, I am afraid that I can cultivate all the way to the peak of Tongxuan. As for whether I can go one step further and become a powerful master, it can only depend on chance.

After leaving Lingyun Pavilion, Yu Ling quickly found a remote corner, took off her mask and used the shape-changing technique to regain her original body shape and aura, and then blended into the crowd without leaving a trace and returned to the academy.

I don't know since when, the mysterious force has just disappeared from the world. He no longer has the feeling of being watched secretly. Moreover, the big shot of Yunlong Kingdom has also left, so he is completely free.

In a light state, although he still maintains his usual caution and is always paying attention to the goings-on around him, he will not lock himself in the academy like before and never leave the house.

As soon as Yu Ling stepped into the gate of the academy, she saw a group of people passing by chatting and laughing on the avenue in front of them. They were clearly divided into four camps. Without even thinking about it, they must be people from the three major sects in Huayu. Even Yu Ling quickly

Then he saw Chun Tiannan. To be precise, Chun Tiannan kept staring at him with such hostility that he couldn't help but notice him.

Chun Tiannan deliberately slowed down his pace, and waited until the elders of the four forces were almost gone before he passed by Yu Ling and gritted his teeth and said: "Let's compete again in this exchange competition, and I will definitely defeat you with my own hands.

Don’t be timid!”

When he finished speaking, he snorted coldly, and without waiting for Yu Ling's reply, he quickened his pace and followed up with the large army again.

For this kind of childish words like a young man's anger, Yu Ling could only send him two words: sick.

A defeated subordinate has healed his scars and forgotten the pain. Now he poses with such a confident attitude and comes to tell you that you can't be timid. This kind of behavior is not a disease.

Yu Ling shook her head and planned to continue walking forward, but she met another frosty girl in blue, who was it if it wasn't Meng Qingyun.

When Meng Qingyun saw him, her eyes moved slightly, she stopped and said softly: "Did you forget something?"

"What?" Yu Ling looked confused. Why did Meng Qingyun have such a cold creditor face every time she saw him? He didn't owe her anything?

"You haven't given me the Blue Emperor Whip yet." Meng Qingyun said in a natural and authentic tone.

"I..." Yu Ling was about to subconsciously say "I'll turn around and ask Gong Ningshui to bring it to you", but suddenly he woke up. He was now standing here as Yu Ling instead of Qin Yue.

What does Meng Qingyun's words... mean?

"Green Emperor Whip? What are you talking about?" Yu Ling pretended not to know.

Meng Qingyun's bright and sharp eyes scanned him up and down several times like a detector, almost making Yu Ling feel like he couldn't hold on any longer. Fortunately, no matter how his mood changed in his heart, on the surface he was always the same.

He remained calm and looked at Meng Qingyun with a slight doubt.

Seeing that he couldn't see any clues, Meng Qingyun said lightly: "I said it wrong. What I meant was that I said I would fight you again half a year ago. Now that the time has come, what can you do?"
