Mo Qingcheng's entire body was enveloped by a formless halo, exuding a holy aura. With the Heart of Seven Apertures, her perception was also extremely terrifying. If not, she wouldn't have been able to detect Qin Wentian's heart sense.
Both Qin Wentian and Mo Qingcheng used their hearts to sense.
At the instant Mo Qingcheng turned her head, Qin Wentian felt as though she was looking at him. Warmth flowed through his heart. She was still the same as before, in fact, she was even more beautiful than before. There was a holy light radiating from her, so dazzling. Not only that, she seemed to have matured a little, and that countenance of hers was even more resilient than before.
Mo Qingcheng seemed to have sensed something, her heart involuntarily pounding violently. She could feel the warmth radiating from Qin Wentian as she murmured, "Wentian, is that you?"
This gentle voice was filled with boundless longing. Qin Wentian wanted nothing more than to throw his head back and roar in rage. It was him, he was right outside the Chen Clan.
"Qingcheng, what's wrong?"
A silhouette flickered as it stepped into Mo Qingcheng's room. This person was none other than Mo Qingcheng's master, Luo He. Her brows were slightly furrowed, as though she could sense that someone was spying on them. But in that instant, Qin Wentian retracted his perception, and everything returned to normal.
A trace of suspicion flashed through Luo He's heart, but she soon understood. Most probably, it was the perception of an expert from the Chen Clan who had inadvertently passed by here.
"Master." Mo Qingcheng felt that sense of perception vanish, and a sense of disappointment and frustration appeared in her heart, as though something was missing.
"You're letting your imagination run wild again. Given his strength, how could he possibly extend his perception all the way here? It's still unknown whether he will come to Ginkou or not," Luo He indifferently stated. The 'him' she was referring to was naturally Qin Wentian.
"He will come, I can sense it." Mo Qingcheng seriously replied. "Not only that, he won't be too far away from me."
"I don't know what you're thinking about. It's already been a few years, yet you still can't let go of the relationship you had when you were young? You can find any outstanding man you want," Luo He helplessly stated.
"Irreplaceable." Mo Qingcheng shook her head. Every time she discussed with her master, there wouldn't be any results.
"Master, do you still remember the agreement between us?" Mo Qingcheng's beautiful eyes stared at Luo He, as though this matter was extremely important to her.
"Of course I remember. Back then you insisted on going out to look for him, but I didn't allow it. In fact, I even wanted him to vanish from this world. At that time, the two of us made a promise. I promised you that I wouldn't deal with him, and you also promised me that you wouldn't look for him and would focus on your cultivation." Luo He calmly spoke. She didn't want anyone to disturb Mo Qingcheng's cultivation.
"What I promised you was that before the end of this year, I wouldn't meet him again. Even if I meet him, we would only be strangers." Mo Qingcheng shook her head.
"Are you that confident in him?" Luo He indifferently replied, "There's not much time left. Zhan Chen's strength is already sufficient to contend for the top three rankers of the Heavenly Fate Rankings. If he can defeat Zhan Chen in this ranking battle, I'll agree to no longer restrict you. But if he fails, you'd better obediently continue your cultivation."
"It's good that Master remembers." Only then did a smile appear on Mo Qingcheng's face. He would definitely be able to do it. Luo He had given her too much pressure, hence she could only make this agreement with Luo He. Firstly, it was to ensure that those from the Pill Emperor Hall wouldn't act against Qin Wentian. Secondly, it was because she was filled with hope for Qin Wentian.
If Qin Wentian was truly defeated, she would be willing to continue waiting until Qin Wentian's strength surpassed that of the Pill Emperor Hall. At that time, who would be able to obstruct her?
Right now, her only wish was for Qin Wentian's safety.
Luo He's eyes flickered with anger as she glanced at the floating cauldron in the room. "You're still thinking of concocting that kind of pill?"
"Master, there's no need for you to worry about this." Mo Qingcheng lightly shook her head.
However at this moment, there was a commotion outside. Luo He's silhouette flickered as she cast her gaze downwards, "Jing Yu, what happened?"
Jing Yu replied, "Master, there seems to be someone spying on our Chen Clan."
"Mhm?" Luo He's brows furrowed as she floated up in the air. Her gaze pierced through an extremely long distance, landing on the area outside the Chen Clan. Instantly, her gaze froze.
Outside the Chen Clan, there were two groups of people facing off against each other. Other than those from the Chen Clan, there were two other young men. With her eyes, she could naturally tell who one of them was.
That young man of the past had undergone such a great transformation. Not only that, was that sense of perception she sensed earlier really his?
Behind Luo He, Mo Qingcheng's silhouette appeared. Her gaze similarly stared into the distance as her heart pounded violently. She felt as though time had come to a standstill. Over there, there was a gaze that penetrated through everything, landing on her.
In that instant, it was as though space itself could no longer obstruct the collision of their hearts.
He smiled. His smile was exceptionally radiant, radiant like the sun.
She smiled. Her smile was exceptionally sweet and gentle.
He had come to see her.
That smile of his made her feel as though she had returned to the past, back to the innocent and pure days of her youth.
Time, was unable to obstruct the purest of emotions.
Mo Qingcheng wanted to step out, yet Luo He interjected, "Have you forgotten our agreement?"
As the sound of Luo He's voice faded, Mo Qingcheng's countenance drastically changed as she abruptly halted her steps.
Qin Wentian couldn't help but have a strange expression on his face when he saw the change in Mo Qingcheng's countenance. What's wrong with her?
Why was she still smiling earlier, but in the blink of an eye, she had an expression of worry on her face?
After which, Qin Wentian discovered that Luo He and Mo Qingcheng had already disappeared from his sight. They had left, and didn't walk towards him.
A sense of disappointment flashed through Qin Wentian's heart, but soon after, he smiled again as he murmured, "As long as you are safe and sound, then the skies will always be clear."
Seeing that Mo Qingcheng was still as beautiful as ever, and her smile was still as sweet as ever, Qin Wentian's heart finally relaxed.
"Junior Ouyang Kuangsheng pays his respects to the seniors of the Chen Clan."
At this moment, Ouyang Kuangsheng's gaze shifted onto those from the Chen Clan as he spoke. Although he had been discovered, he was neither servile nor overbearing.
The countenance of the person in the lead froze for a moment before he smiled, "So it's Nephew Ouyang. However, what are you doing outside my Chen Clan? If you wanted to pay a visit, why didn't you inform us beforehand?"
"I was just about to pay a visit, but who would have thought that my friend would meet an old friend." Ouyang Kuangsheng smiled.
"Oh, your friend's old friend is in my Chen Clan?" That middle-aged man glanced at Qin Wentian who was standing beside Ouyang Kuangsheng.
"I won't hide it from seniors, my friend's ex-girlfriend is named Mo Qingcheng. Currently, she's in the Chen Clan." Ouyang Kuangsheng laughed, his words causing Qin Wentian to be speechless. This fellow was truly not afraid of blowing things up.
Indeed, the countenances of those from the Chen Clan changed. After which, that middle-aged man casually added, "If that's the case, why hasn't Mo Qingcheng come out yet? Nephew Ouyang, please don't joke around."
"It's up to Senior to believe it or not. Also, the reason why I'm here today is because my second uncle has instructed me to pass on a message. My Ouyang Aristocrat Clan has always admired the might of the Great Solar Universe Art of the Chen Clan, and if there's an opportunity, we would definitely like to exchange our insights. I wonder if there's an opportunity for the younger generations of both clans to interact with each other?"
Ouyang Kuangsheng quickly changed the topic. How could this be the intention of his second uncle? It was obviously his own decision to make.
However, since his spying was discovered today, he naturally had to give a reason. Although his words were polite, there was a hint of provocation in his words. He was sure that the other party would immediately forget about the earlier incident, and wouldn't make things difficult for them because of what happened earlier.
"Hehe." The countenance of that middle-aged man changed slightly, before he laughed coldly, "Since Brother Ouyang wishes to experience it, I'll have to trouble Nephew Ouyang to pass on a message for me. I'll make the necessary arrangements and send someone to inform the Ouyang Aristocrat Clan. I hope that when the time comes, the Ouyang Aristocrat Clan won't break our promise."
"Of course. Since I've already passed on the message, this junior will take his leave first." Ouyang Kuangsheng bowed slightly as he signaled to Qin Wentian with his eyes, before the two of them departed.
Those from the Chen Clan couldn't help but snort coldly as they watched Ouyang Kuangsheng and Ouyang Kuangsheng depart. Wanting to experience the Great Solar Universe Art of their Chen Clan? Since that's the case, they would grant their wish.
He also wanted to see what sort of characters the younger generations from the Ouyang Aristocrat Clan were.
At this moment, from within the Chen Clan, a silhouette flew out with lightning speed, akin to a beam of golden light, chasing after Qin Wentian and Ouyang Kuangsheng.
"Zhan Chen?" Those from the Chen Clan all had strange expressions on their faces. Why was Zhan Chen chasing after them?
Very quickly, Qin Wentian and Ouyang Kuangsheng discovered that there was someone chasing after them. Involuntarily, they halted in the air, and upon seeing Zhan Chen, Qin Wentian's countenance stiffened.
Currently, Zhan Chen's eyes flickered with a terrifying golden light. His entire body was shimmering with a golden luster, exuding a terrifying sharpness.
"Zhan Chen, it seems like you've really cultivated the Gold-Element Ancient Scroll." Qin Wentian's eyes flickered. The current Zhan Chen looked somewhat similar to the golden-armored warrior from back then.
"Since you can't protect it, I'll naturally cultivate it." A terrifying light flickered in Zhan Chen's eyes, penetrating through everything, directly piercing towards Qin Wentian. "Back then, you insulted my reputation, and even misrepresented a deer as a horse, saying that the assassin was me. If I don't kill you, where would my reputation go?"
As the sound of his voice faded, Zhan Chen advanced forward step by step. With every step he took, a terrifying sharpness could be felt pressing down on Qin Wentian and Ouyang Kuangsheng.
"Perfection Boundary of the first level of the Mandate of Metal, and Perfection Boundary of the first level of the Mandate of Sword." Ouyang Kuangsheng's countenance stiffened. A long time ago, Zhan Chen was ranked # 11 on the Heavenly Fate Rankings. Now, his strength had grown even stronger, and it seemed that he had also cultivated a powerful cultivation art.
"Let's go." Ouyang Kuangsheng spoke to Qin Wentian.
Qin Wentian's eyes flickered as he nodded his head. The two of them sped through the air, speeding away.
Zhan Chen, who had cultivated an Ascendant's cultivation art, exuded a demonic aura, as well as an intense sense of danger.
How could Zhan Chen spare Qin Wentian? His silhouette was like the wind as he soared through the air, akin to a bolt of golden lightning.
Three silhouettes sped through the air.
Just as they passed by the top of a building, a black-robed figure suddenly descended from the void. There was a loud rumble, and the entire building seemed to shake.
"Mhm?" The countenances of Zhan Chen, Qin Wentian and the rest froze. Qin Wentian turned his head, only to see that the black-robed silhouette was incomparably mysterious. His entire body was shrouded in black robes, and his figure was extremely skinny, yet he gave off an intense sense of danger.
A terrifying devilish might emanated from him, and with him as the center, the air around him seemed to have transformed into a black hue.
Zhan Chen halted his steps as he stared in front of him. A pair of ice-cold eyes stared at him. That pair of devilish eyes seemed to originate from the depths of purgatory, incomparably terrifying. Just a single glance was enough to cause one's entire body to shiver.
"Devil Art!" Zhan Chen's countenance stiffened. This was a forbidden cultivation art. In the entire Grand Xia, there shouldn't be any devil cultivators. Who was this person?!
