Liu Ming's gaze swept across the room and he sat down on a chair.
Calan closed the door and walked to the table with light steps. She picked up the red clay teapot and poured a cup of tea for Liu Ming before sitting down on the bed.
Liu Ming reached out and picked up the teacup, put it in front of his nose and sniffed it. He felt a refreshing fragrance, and his heart swayed unconsciously. He recalled the scenes that he had experienced since he met Jia Lan, and he was a little dazed for a while.
Calan looked at Liu Ming. Her eyes flickered slightly, but she did not say anything.
The two of them just sat there in silence, and the whole room became silent.
A faint sigh came from Calan's mouth.
The sound was so soft that it could not be heard, but it was extremely clear in the room at this moment.
"I …" Liu Ming came back to his senses.
"Senior Brother Liu, the tea is cold. Let me pour you another cup." As a result, before Liu Ming finished speaking, Calan stood up and opened her red lips slightly. However, there was a hint of bitterness in her tone.
"It's okay. It was a little hot outside just now, and the tea is good to quench my thirst when it's cold." Liu Ming said slowly and drank the spirit tea in his hand.
Seeing this, a complicated expression flashed across Calan's jade-like face. She paused and continued to walk to the table. She picked up the red clay teapot and filled the teacup in Liu Ming's hand once again.
At this moment, a big hand reached out from the other side and grabbed Calan's wrist.
Calan's delicate body trembled. She turned to look at Liu Ming but did not break free.
"Junior Sister Calan, when Master Yin went to Misty Peak, it was actually for …" Liu Ming sighed.
"Senior Brother Liu, Calan's aptitude is mediocre and her cultivation is still at the False Core stage. Now that Senior Brother has received the favor of the Sect's higher-ups and is already an esoteric disciple, Calan … Calan is indeed a bit too much." Calan interrupted Liu Ming, and as she spoke, her voice became colder.
"Junior Sister misunderstands. The matter of the engagement being delayed is not as you think. Now that the foreign races are invading, I plan to focus all my attention on increasing my strength as quickly as possible. Only by being strong enough can you and I survive such a great calamity. Only then can I better protect the people around me. Once this matter comes to an end, I will personally go to Ethereal Peak and propose to Peak Lord Tian Yin and Senior Yu Yinzi to officially marry you. " Listening to Jia Lan's words, Liu Ming looked at her charming and unparalleled face. After his heart was slightly warm, he said seriously.
"Is what Senior Brother Liu said true? But … "When Calan heard this, her beautiful eyes lit up and she couldn't help but feel a little worried.
"Although I, Liu Ming, am not a gentleman, I will never go back on my words. Could it be that Junior Sister doesn't trust me?" Liu Ming's eyes flashed and he said with exceptional determination.
"I naturally believe you." Jia Lan looked at Liu Ming with a pair of beautiful eyes, nodded, and said softly.
In the following time, Liu Ming chatted with Calan for a while before taking his leave.
When Liu Ming walked out of Calan's room, he let out a sigh of relief. Having obtained Calan's understanding, it could be said that a knot in his heart had been resolved. He immediately turned and walked towards the third floor of the pavilion. Not long after, he arrived at the door of his room.
However, at this moment, there was a graceful girl in a silver robe standing outside his door. It was Long Yanfei.
"Younger Brother Liu, what are you talking about with Sister Calan? Why haven't you come out of your room for so long?" Long Yanfei looked at Liu Ming and asked with a faint smile.
"Senior Sister Long, don't be sarcastic." Liu Ming shook his head and smiled bitterly.
"Sister Calan has told me everything about the two of you. Younger Brother Liu, although your current status is different from before, Sister Calan is a good girl. Don't let her down." Long Yanfei suddenly stopped smiling and said seriously.
"I know what kind of person Sister Calan is. I won't let her down." Liu Ming's eyes flashed as he said.
"If that's the case, then I don't need to say anything more. You're on your own." Long Yanfei raised her eyebrows and turned to walk towards her room.
Liu Ming looked at Long Yanfei's back and hesitated for a moment before calling out to her.
"Senior Sister Long, wait a moment."
"Junior Brother, is there something else?" Long Yanfei turned to look at Liu Ming in surprise.
"If Senior Sister has nothing else to do, why don't you come to my room for a while? There are some things that I want to talk to you about." Liu Ming said seriously. He pushed open the door and made an inviting gesture.
"Oh, if that's the case, I'll stay a bit longer."
Long Yanfei thought for a moment before walking over. She walked into Liu Ming's room and sat on the chair.
Liu Ming walked into the room and closed the door behind him. He waved his hand and a layer of black light spread out, forming a faint black soundproof barrier.
Seeing Liu Ming being so serious, Long Yanfei was naturally startled.
"Younger Brother Liu, this is …"
"What I want to say next is actually related to Senior Liuyin." Liu Ming sorted out his thoughts and finally said.
"What, Ancestor Liuyin?" Long Yanfei's face changed drastically when she heard the words, and she suddenly stood up.
"Senior Sister Long, don't worry. Listen to me first. This may sound unbelievable, but it's true. I was chased by a Heavenly Form Ghost Clan in the Evil Ghost Path more than 30 years ago. After that, I encountered an accident and accidentally fell into the Netherworld Realm … "Liu Ming immediately told her about his encounter with the yin flow in the Netherworld, which was the reincarnation of Ancestor Liuyin.
"There is such a thing …" Long Yanfei listened to the whole process with a blank look on her face.
"Ancestor Liuyin is now the disciple of the Ghost King in the Netherworld Realm. It is unlikely for him to return to the Middle Sky Continent, so he entrusted me to take care of the Long Family in the Dragon Spring Valley. Ancestor Liuyin has done me a great favor. If Dragon Spring Valley needs anything in the future, Senior Sister Long can come to my cave house to find me at any time. As long as it is within my ability, I will not refuse. "Liu Ming promised seriously.
"Thank you for telling me about this, Junior Brother. I will tell grandmother truthfully about Ancestor Liuyin when I go back. As for whether she believes it or not, I can't say for sure. After all, this matter is still too incredible. " After Long Yanfei thought for a long time, she let out a long breath, bowed deeply to Liu Ming, and said.
"Senior Sister Long, you don't have to be so polite. It's a pity that I was in a hurry to separate from Senior Liuyin, so I didn't bring back one or two tokens. Otherwise, it would be more credible." Liu Ming also said with some regret.
Hearing this, Long Yanfei could only smile bitterly.
Perhaps it was because she had just heard the news about Ancestor Liuyin, Long Yanfei chatted with Liu Ming for a while, then left with a complicated expression.
After watching Long Yanfei leave, Liu Ming silently sat down cross-legged and began to cultivate with his eyes closed.
The flying boat flew above the clouds. At this altitude, it was not afraid of encountering a large-scale attack from the stemborers.
After a few days and nights, the flying boat arrived above a vast mountain range.
At the bow of the flying boat, Kun Yu sat cross-legged. Her body emitted a layer of bright yellow light, which was connected with a formation below her. She controlled the flying boat to fly forward.
In the sky ahead, the shadows of a few steep peaks could be vaguely seen.
Kun Yu's eyes flashed, and with a wave of her hand, she cast a spell into the cabin pavilion.
The entire pavilion flashed, and a moment later, a series of footsteps could be heard. All the disciples of the Taiqing Sect walked down from it.
"The Qingsang Mountain Range is less than a thousand miles ahead. All of you, get ready," Kun Yu said in a deep voice.
Hearing this, everyone looked toward the vaguely visible towering mountain range in the distance and began to check the situation of their magic treasures.
Since they had already reached the Qingsang Mountain Range, they could encounter the fierce stemborers at any time. In the battle of the Thousand Spirit Mountain Range a few days ago, everyone present had experienced the power of the stemborers, so naturally, they would not be careless.
The dozen or so inner disciples present were made up of the inner disciples of the Mysterious Heaven Peak, the Heavenly Sword Peak, and the Misty Peak. Apart from the two esoteric disciples, Liu Ming and Kun Yu, the only Jin Dan cultivators were Shangguan Yanyu and Ling Yiyi of the Mysterious Heaven Peak, and Long Yanfei of the Heavenly Sword Peak. The rest were Crystal Level and Fake Core Stage disciples.
Calan checked her storage magic treasures. The necessary talismans and magic treasures were all there, and she couldn't help but feel relieved.
At this moment, a figure walked to her side. It was Liu Ming.
"Although this mission may not be very dangerous, just in case, don't be too far away from me." Liu Ming looked into Calan's eyes and whispered to her.
Calan's beautiful eyes flashed, and she nodded.
While everyone was preparing, the flying boat had already flown into a verdant mountain range. The terrain of the mountain range was strange. Whether it was the ground or the rocks, they were all covered with a faint layer of green.
As soon as they entered the mountain range, Liu Ming felt that the surrounding wood-attribute spiritual energy was much denser.
"Qingsang Mountain Range is a large wood-attribute spirit stone mineral vein. The Ye Family is actually a family established by the cultivators outside our sect. They have been guarding the mineral vein here for generations." Calan seemed to see Liu Ming's doubts and explained softly.
"It turns out that you are well-informed. You even know the Qingsang Mountain Range in detail. You are much better than me." Liu Ming was startled when he heard the words, then he nodded and smiled.
"No, I also followed my master to visit the Haoran Academy more than ten years ago. When I passed by here, my master mentioned a few words to me." Calan glanced at Liu Ming, and a slight smile appeared on her face.
For Liu Ming, Calan couldn't tell what she felt about him.
As a mixed-blood of the human and sea races, whether it was in the Savage Ghost Sect or back to the Sea Race, although she was glorious on the surface, there was a hidden loneliness in her heart that no one noticed.
Between the human and sea races, for her own bloodline, she betrayed the Savage Ghost Sect and joined the Sea Race, but then she was captured by Siren King, and her body was almost occupied by another soul.
Although she survived this series of dangerous experiences, what she yearned for in her heart was still a peaceful life.
Maybe it was because Liu Ming was the first man who could give her this feeling of peace of mind. So over the years, although Liu Ming had been indifferent to her, she could still wait silently.
