“Senior, when will you be returning to Soaring Immortal Mountain?” Holy Lady Ming He asked.
Most cultivators had already left the Continent Assembly. The Holy Lady was surprised to find Chen Changan wasn’t among them.
Chen Changan smiled. “Having come to the Continent Assembly, it’s only natural to tour Ancient Phoenix Sect.”
Ming He’s eyes shone, “Allow me to show Senior around.”
A Golden Phoenix landed in the Continent Assembly.
“After you, Senior.”
Chen Changan stepped on it. Ling Bao’er, Foxy, and Xiao Hei followed him.
The Golden Phoenix was mighty, a Spirit Severing Demon Empress. In terms of cultivation, it was a few good Layers above even Flood Dragon Hei.
Only the top power in Ghost Province could use the Spirit Severing Demon Empress to carry Senior around. It only proved how much Ming He valued Chen Changan.
The Phoenix took flight, soaring high above.
Chen Changan stood with hands behind him, enjoying the varied and lush scenery of the Ancient Phoenix Sect.
Ming He supplemented the story of each place.
Chen Changan did not plan on touring the Ancient Phoenix Sect, but rather inclined to ask Ming He about her relationship with his Master.
At one point Chen Changan asked her. “I heard Holy Lady and Cloud Province’s Eternity Coven Leader had been close for years.”
Ming He was introducing the buildings around the Ancient Phoenix Sect when he asked.
She flinched in surprise and had a complicated look. “Senior is right, I’ve been friends for many years with Feng Qiyun. I’m surprised Senior knows of this.”
“Heard a rumor,” Chen Changan replied. “A few months back, Eternity Coven was destroyed. Why then haven’t you helped, given how close you were?”
Chen Changan went to the point. He supposed with her help in Eternity Coven’s time of crisis, things would’ve been different. Maybe he’d still be in Eternity Coven even now, with the System still dormant and he was wasting the days away.
“Senior must be close as well.” Chen Changan nodded but didn’t offer the information of being Feng Qiyun’s disciple.
“Senior, I did want to help, and even went to Cloud Province.”
“You did?” Chen Changan was astounded.
Ming He was the Ghost Province Lady and wielded its cauldron, an Immortal Slayer to boot.
He was certain that her help would’ve saved his Master. [So why didn’t Master return, going instead to Cloud Province’s deadly Bronze Mountain?]
“And?” Chen Changan pursued.
“I met Feng Qiyun, but he didn’t want my help, telling me to return to Ghost Province and that his disciple would come find me at Ancient Phoenix Sect. All these days I’ve been waiting but not once his disciple came.”
Chen Changan fell silent. He wanted to tell her the truth, ‘I’m his disciple.’ But after discovering Absolute Domain, Chen Changan felt no need to rely on the Ancient Phoenix Sect.
“I’m very curious about you and Feng Qiyun. Would it be possible to tell me your story?”
Ming He hesitated, “Sure.”
Ming He related what went on between her and Feng Qiyun.
Ling Bao’er, Foxy, and Xiao Hei did not butt it. The disciple contest was all the girls could think about, even if they already were his disciples. It made them realise that, a month later, many geniuses would show up.
Their talent was not impressive, nor was their cultivation. They couldn’t just shame their Master and had to train doubly hard.
Ling Bao’er and Foxy sat down to cultivate even on the back of the Phoenix.
Ming He finished her story.
The story was not long nor short, but it told him of her deep feelings for his Master. [Why aren’t they together then?]
Ming He did not say.
From his Master’s letter, he knew of his deep feelings too. Why else would he let someone like him, with the Eternal Body, stay in Ming He’s care at the Ancient Phoenix Sect?
Talking for so much made them realise the tour was over.
Chen Changan said, “Holy Lady, I shall take my leave, now that the tour is over.”
“Safe travels, Senior.”
Chen Changan smiled. “Talking with Holy Lady is so refreshing. Feel free to come by Soaring Immortal Mountain whenever you’re in need. I’ll be sure to lend a hand.”
“Thank you so much, Senior.”
