In the Mo Clan, the daughter of the Pill Emperor, Luo He, had already left. However, the entire Mo Residence was still immersed in joy.
This was especially so for Old Mo and Mo Qingcheng's parents. How could they not be happy about Mo Qingcheng's good fortune?
"Xiaoyun, I'm really thankful to you this time around." Old Mo politely thanked Hua Xiaoyun, but Bai Fei, who was standing beside him, couldn't help but twitch her lips. Thankful to Hua Xiaoyun? If it weren't for Mo Qingcheng's talent, would her master have accepted her as a disciple?
If it weren't for the fact that Hua Xiaoyun had an elder brother, her master wouldn't even bother to pay a visit to the Mo Residence.
"Qingcheng has a Seven Apertures Heart, that's why Senior Luo He valued her so highly. This has nothing to do with me, Old Mo, there's no need to be so polite." Hua Xiaoyun laughed. This time around, the results of Luo He's examination of Mo Qingcheng's talent had shocked him as well. Mo Qingcheng actually had a Seven Apertures Heart? If that was the case, Mo Qingcheng would definitely become a Heaven's Chosen in the future. No wonder she looked so pure and serene.
At this moment, Hua Xiaoyun was already thinking that if he could form a good relationship with Mo Qingcheng, it would definitely be a good choice. In fact, if he could woo her …
Because of this, Hua Xiaoyun decided to stay in the Mo Residence for a long time. This way, he would be able to get closer to Mo Qingcheng.
"Haha, I didn't expect this either." Old Mo laughed heartily. Even the spectators from afar could hear his laughter, and from this, one could see how excited he was. Indeed, the major characters in the outside world were different. Back in Chu, he didn't even know what a Seven Apertures Heart was. No matter how high Mo Qingcheng's talent was, it would still be buried.
The group of people arrived in front of a courtyard. Old Mo asked the guard, "Is Qingcheng still throwing a tantrum?"
"Miss, miss, she insists on going out." The guard bowed helplessly.
Old Mo's countenance turned heavy as he stepped into the courtyard. Upon seeing Mo Qingcheng standing there, glaring at the guard, he shouted, "What nonsense."
Mo Qingcheng stared at old man Mo, her beautiful eyes filled with determination as she stated, "Grandpa, you even want to restrict my freedom? In that case, I will definitely not go to the Pill Emperor Hall. I also don't care how powerful the Pill Emperor Hall is.
"Impudent!" Old Mo berated, glancing at Bai Fei and the others beside him. As expected, Bai Fei's brows were furrowed in displeasure. Although Mo Qingcheng had a Seven Apertures Divine Heart, without the nurturing of the Pill Emperor Hall, her talent would still be wasted. Now, it seemed like the Pill Emperor Hall was the one begging her to join them. One must know how many geniuses wanted to enter the Pill Emperor Hall but were rejected.
"Qingcheng, don't say such angry words in the future," Old Hiroshi said sternly.
"I'm not saying this out of anger. Grandpa, even if you force me to go, I won't work hard in my cultivation." Mo Qingcheng's beautiful eyes stared at Old Mo as she stubbornly stated.
"You …" Old Mo was so angry that his chest heaved up and down. Upon seeing Mo Qingcheng staring at him, he stated, "Fine, I will let you out, but you must have someone following you."
"In that case, I'm leaving." Mo Qingcheng soared up into the air, causing Old Mo to be so angry that he was speechless.
"Elder Mo, I'll go take care of Junior Sister. You don't have to worry." The young man beside Bai Fei stated with a smile. Old Mo nodded his head, "If that's the case, that would be for the best."
Jing Yu and Yan Qi nodded their heads as they soared up into the air. Bai Fei was stunned for a moment before she stomped her feet and left as well. These two rascals, upon seeing Mo Qingcheng's outstanding talent and beauty, they immediately had thoughts of her. How practical. In the past, they had always revolved around her.
After Mo Qingcheng left the Mo Residence, she sped towards the bamboo cabin to look for Qin Wentian.
Seeing the look of grievance on Mo Qingcheng's face, Qin Wentian walked up and pinched her exquisite cheeks as he laughed, "What's wrong? Who bullied my Qingcheng?"
"Smelly dumbo, you still have the mood to joke around?" Mo Qingcheng glared at Qin Wentian with hidden bitterness in her eyes.
"Don't be sad, isn't it a good thing that the daughter of the Pill Emperor values your talent? In the future, you will be an extremely powerful alchemist." Qin Wentian smiled, as though he was consoling Mo Qingcheng. In truth, how could he not feel reluctant in his heart? But he couldn't be too selfish, as there was nothing he could do to help Mo Qingcheng in her cultivation.
"Seven Apertures Heart, I've never heard of such a talent before. It must be extremely powerful." Qin Wentian laughed.
Mo Qingcheng's mood improved after seeing Qin Wentian trying to console her. She inched closer to Qin Wentian, and their gazes met. It was as though they could feel each other's heartbeat and breathing.
A gentle and radiant smile appeared in Mo Qingcheng's eyes, so beautiful that it caused Qin Wentian's heartbeat to quicken. Mo Qingcheng rested her head on his chest as she hugged him tightly with her slender arms. She murmured, "As long as you say no, I won't go."
"Go, why not go?" Qin Wentian gently stroked Mo Qingcheng's hair as he gazed into the horizons. At this moment, his emotions were extremely complicated. He hoped that Mo Qingcheng would have a good future, but at the same time, he couldn't bear to see her leave.
"When you enter the Pill Emperor Hall, given how outstanding you are, there will definitely be many suitors chasing after you. The pressure will be immense." Qin Wentian joked.
Mo Qingcheng peeked her head out from Qin Wentian's embrace. Looking at Qin Wentian's expression, she couldn't help but giggle, "You're jealous? In that case, you have to work hard."
After speaking, she raised her dainty fist towards Qin Wentian.
"Naturally." Qin Wentian smiled and nodded. The two of them sat down by the riverside, quietly leaning against each other as they enjoyed this rare moment of peace.
Today's sunset was exceptionally beautiful. Red clouds floated in the horizon, and Qin Wentian and Mo Qingcheng sat there, gazing at the setting sun. It was as though they were weaving a beautiful painting together.
"No matter how beautiful the sunset is, will it still have to fade away in the end?" Seeing the darkness of the night slowly approaching, Mo Qingcheng felt some sadness in her heart. After which, she stood up and jogged away.
"Where are you going?" Qin Wentian stood up and followed after Mo Qingcheng. After which, they arrived at the small house where Mo Qingcheng's body was lying on the bed. Her eyes that were as clear as water were currently looking at him.
"What's wrong?" Qin Wentian walked up and asked in a low voice.
"I'll stay here tonight." Mo Qingcheng's voice was extremely soft, almost inaudible.
Qin Wentian stared at her, only to see Mo Qingcheng's face gradually turning red. Her beautiful eyes flashed with shyness, and he instantly understood what she meant.
In his heart, a warm current flowed past. Very, very warm.
"Silly girl." Qin Wentian squatted down beside the bed and lightly kissed Mo Qingcheng's fragrant lips. Mo Qingcheng's beautiful eyes widened as her face instantly turned bright red. She slowly closed her eyes, not knowing how to respond. She simply allowed Qin Wentian to kiss her.
Their lips parted, Qin Wentian smiled when he saw Mo Qingcheng's blushing face. "Let's go back, I still have to go to the Mo Residence to propose marriage in the future."
"Mhm." Mo Qingcheng felt touched in her heart. She sat up and planted a kiss on Qin Wentian's forehead. After which, she turned and walked out of the house. When she reached the door, she turned back and smiled sweetly at Qin Wentian, "I'll wait for you to settle your matters in Chu before I leave. I'll accompany you until the end of your journey."
"Qin Wentian, you snatched away my first kiss. You're not allowed to cast me aside in this lifetime. If not, I won't forgive you."
A radiant smile appeared on her face as Mo Qingcheng ran away. At the instant she turned, her smiling eyes gradually became moist, as though a teardrop was about to flow down her cheeks.
Qin Wentian stood up and followed after Mo Qingcheng, his eyes filled with reluctance to part.
Outside the bamboo forest, Yan Qi and Jing Yu were blocked by Ouyang Kuangsheng, their countenances extremely unsightly. The sky was already dark, yet Mo Qingcheng still hadn't come out. This made them feel extremely uncomfortable.
But at this moment, a graceful silhouette slowly walked out. Ouyang Kuangsheng turned his head, and when he saw the tears in Mo Qingcheng's eyes, his heart involuntarily stirred. What kind of emotions were hidden within the beautiful eyes of this young lady?
Mo Qingcheng didn't even bother to look at the people here. She directly soared up into the air and flew away, causing the people here to be stunned.
Qin Wentian slowly followed after her, sighing in his heart as he stared at her departing silhouette. However, a look of longing could be seen in his eyes.
"Qin Wentian, you snatched away my first kiss. You're not allowed to cast me aside in this lifetime. If not, I won't forgive you."
The voice of the young lady resounded in his ears, filled with emotions. He knew that in this lifetime, he would never be able to forget this kind and innocent young lady.
Jing Yu frowned as he glanced at Qin Wentian. "Are you Qin Wentian?"
Qin Wentian stared at Jing Yu, his countenance calm. Was this person also the disciple of the Pill Emperor's daughter, Luo He? His gaze was filled with unfriendliness.
"Regardless of what relationship you had with Mo Qingcheng in the past, from now on, you have to give up on such thoughts. The two of you are not on the same level. Luan Feng is destined to never be together with Jackdaw." Jing Yu indifferently stated as he stared at Qin Wentian. Mo Qingcheng, who possessed the Seven Apertures Heart, would definitely have a place in the Pill Emperor Hall in the future.
"That's right, there are many people who were childhood sweethearts when they were young. However, as the disparity in their statuses grew, the difference in status between them would be unbridgeable. No matter how close they were in the past, they would eventually drift apart. You'd better give up soon, don't have any more delusions, or you'll only be courting death."
Yan Qi's tone was even more impolite, indifferent and cold.
Bai Fei glanced at Qin Wentian. Although she didn't like Mo Qingcheng, her master still placed great importance on her. Hence, she added, "Just give up, it's best for both of you."
After speaking, the three from the Pill Emperor Hall departed together, leaving behind a dumbfounded Ouyang Kuangsheng. Wasn't this motherf * cker a little too arrogant? Even he, Ouyang Kuangsheng, wasn't this arrogant?
"Wentian, these alchemists are all like this. Being able to concoct some of the medicinal pills Wu Xiu requires, they're often begged by powerful characters. They've already gotten used to it, thinking that they're so extraordinary. Don't mind it too much." Ouyang Kuangsheng seemed to be consoling Qin Wentian, causing Qin Wentian to be somewhat bewildered. So it turned out that this arrogant fellow also knew how to console others.
"Don't worry, just like what they said, Luan Feng wouldn't be together with Jackdaw. In that case, Kirin wouldn't mind the gazes of an ordinary horse." Qin Wentian laughed. Ouyang Kuangsheng froze for a moment upon hearing his words, before he laughed uproariously, "That's right, Kirin, there's no need to mind the gazes of an ordinary horse."
