At the foot of the Human Peak, there was an ancient-style restaurant. It was the place where all the disciples of the Sky Sword Sect who used to live in the Human Peak had their meals.
The restaurant was very large, with a total of three floors. It was not a problem for two hundred people to eat at the same time.
Deacon Guo Ping was originally in charge of the daily life of the disciples of the Sky Sword Sect. Of course, meals were included, so he had always been in charge here.
There were professional chefs and more than twenty service staff, all of whom were originally from the disciples of the Sky Sword Sect. They were all at the Xiantian Realm, but after being accepted into the sect, they were unable to improve for many years due to their aptitude. That was why they were arranged to be here.
All cultivation sects were ultimately formed by people. As long as one was human, one had to pay attention to food, clothing, housing, and transportation. These trivial matters of life had to be taken care of by someone. No force in the world was exempt from this.
Frankly speaking, among the one hundred and forty-seven survivors of the Sky Sword Sect, excluding the fifty-eight who had reached the late stage of the Xiantian realm, the remaining eighty-nine people, except for a few who were young and had good aptitude, had been eliminated by others and then stayed in the Sky Sword Sect to take care of these trivial tasks.
And this was also one of the reasons why Ling Yun could not bear to slaughter those disciples of the Sky Sword Sect.
Tonight's dinner was arranged by Ling Yun here.
Qin Qiuyue and Ning Lingyu had to keep vigil for Ning Tianya, so they did not come over to the Human Peak. When the meal was ready, Ling Yun, of course, personally delivered it to them.
Originally, Ling Yun planned to accompany them for dinner, but Qin Qiuyue said that it was not necessary. She asked him to return to the Human Peak with Qin Dongxue to help her entertain the people from the Qin Family and the Ning Family.
Although they were all a family, when doing things, they still had to pay attention to the distinction between inside and outside, as well as pay attention to etiquette.
This was the first day that everyone gathered in the Lingyun Sword Sect. Li Piaoyang and Guo Ping naturally did their best, striving for perfection in everything. Therefore, this dinner was very sumptuous. There were cooked beef, lamb, chicken, duck, fish, fresh vegetables, and everything else. The reception was not at all inferior to the big restaurants in the secular world.
Here, Qin Chunfeng of the Qin Family and Ning Poping of the Ning Family became guests.
In the quaint private room on the third floor of the restaurant, Ling Yun personally entertained the two families and thanked them for coming from afar on behalf of his mother. During the dinner, he repeatedly toasted, talking and laughing, and under the urging of everyone, he had no choice but to recount the entire process of rescuing Qin Qiuyue last night. Naturally, everyone was stunned and amazed.
Of course, Ling Yun also expressed his apologies to the Ning Clan for coming a step too late and failing to successfully save Ning Tianya. But halfway through his words, he was stopped by Ning Poping.
Ning Poping didn't say much, but his words hit the nail on the head. "There's no need to apologize. It's hard to defy the will of heaven! Poping did not say much, but he said of the Ning Poping.
Ling Yun could tell that the people from the Ning Family didn't want to talk about it during the banquet, so he changed the topic. Coincidentally, Qin Chunfeng was also very good at socializing in the pugilistic world. With him at the table, there wouldn't be any awkward situations. Everything was handled just right, making everyone feel like they were bathing in the spring breeze.
The dinner started at 7: 30 pm and ended at 10: 00 pm. It took two and a half hours to finish.
Ling Yun and Qin Dongxue sent them out of the restaurant. Qin Chunfeng and Ning Poping led their families to the accommodations that Guo Ping had arranged for them to rest.
The Lingyun Sword Sect had plenty of rooms for people to stay in. Not to mention that there were already enough guest rooms, there were more than a hundred people from the Di Family that Ling Yun had chased away. During the day, Guo Ping had already cleaned up the rooms, so there was no shortage of accommodation.
"Phew, I'm finally done."
Ling Yun watched as they left. When they were completely out of sight, he finally let out a long sigh of relief and relaxed his mind.
"Ling Yun, you haven't slept for two days and one night because of your sister. Do you want to rest well tonight?"
Qin Dongxue, who was standing beside Ling Yun, turned around and saw the fatigue on Ling Yun's face. She couldn't help but feel sorry for him.
Ling Yun smiled and shook his head. "I'm fine. I meditated for the whole day. That's more useful than sleeping."
He paused for a moment before saying to Qin Dongxue, "You, on the other hand, have been busy for two days and one night. Now that there's nothing urgent, you should hurry up and rest."
Qin Dongxue's eyes flickered. She wanted to accompany Ling Yun for a while more, but she gave up after some thought.
"Alright, then I'll go back to my room to cultivate. But … "
Qin Dongxue suddenly changed the topic and sent a telepathic message hesitantly. "You have to deal with what happened when Lingyu and Ye Xingchen met in the evening. You have to be patient."
Lingyu and Ye Xingchen fought as soon as they met. This not only infuriated Ling Yun, but it also shocked everyone. Qin Dongxue knew that Ling Yun just hadn't had the time to ask about it. Once she left, he would definitely find Ye Xingchen to ask about it.
"Sigh, I really can't hide anything from you."
Ling Yun smiled bitterly. "Don't worry, I know what I'm doing. I'll handle it properly."
"That's good. I'll be leaving then."
With that, Qin Dongxue floated away. She had already accompanied Qin Qiuyue at Sky Peak for the whole day. When she came over at night, Qin Qiuyue had specifically told her that she didn't need to accompany her anymore.
"Whoosh!"
After Qin Dongxue left, Ling Yun floated up to the third floor and found Ye Xingchen. Without a word, he held her hand and jumped out of the window. The two of them flew south.
In the blink of an eye, they crossed the huge mountain ridge and flew forward for a full three minutes. After traveling a hundred kilometers, they were completely out of the territory of the Lingyun Sword Sect. Only then did Ling Yun choose a lonely cliff and land on the peak.
"Tell me, what exactly happened?"
After landing, Ling Yun stared at Ye Xingchen and asked directly.
"You're asking me, but who am I supposed to ask?"
Ye Xingchen said with a face full of innocence. "It's really strange. How do I put it … Well, anyway, when I saw Ning Lingyu standing in front of me, a fighting spirit appeared in my body. I couldn't suppress it even if I wanted to, so I had to fight."
"It's like … obsessive-compulsive disorder. Yes, obsessive-compulsive disorder, you know? It's when you have to do something at a certain moment. If you don't do it, you'll go crazy. That's probably what it means. "
"…"
Ling Yun was even more confused after hearing Ye Xingchen's explanation.
Obsessive-Compulsive disorder? It actually appeared in two peerless geniuses in the middle stage of Qi Cultivation, and at the same time? That was simply unimaginable!
What was the Qi Cultivation Realm? Qi Cultivation Realm! If a cultivator reached the middle stage of Qi Cultivation but couldn't even control the most basic emotions in his heart, he wouldn't be far from Qi Deviation.
However, he knew that Ye Xingchen definitely wasn't lying to him.
A thought flashed through Ling Yun's mind as he asked, "This feeling … Have you experienced it before? Has it ever happened when you faced others? "
"No! Only this once! "
Ye Xingchen shook his head decisively.
Ling Yun asked, "Then if you see Lingyu the next time, will you be able to control your emotions?"
Ye Xingchen replied, "I don't know."
"That's too f * cking strange!"
Ling Yun scratched his head, speechless. He muttered, "Could it be because both of your constitutions are too nature-defying? Why can't the Star Body and Immortal Body coexist in this world? Why do you subconsciously view each other as natural enemies?! "
"But that shouldn't be the case, I'm …"
Ling Yun suddenly shut his mouth. He thought to himself that he had almost revealed his biggest secret.
When he was in the Cultivation World, he had seen many people with nature-defying constitutions. Among them, there were indeed people with primordial constitutions that viewed each other as natural enemies, but they weren't the Star Body or Immortal Body.
"Where are they?"
Ye Xingchen asked Ling Yun with a smile, seemingly not too bothered by the fact that he and Ning Lingyu had fought each other every time they met.
"Where else could they be?"
Facing Ye Xingchen's questioning, Ling Yun smiled indifferently and replied nonchalantly, "I've never heard of it from my master."
Ye Xingchen laughed, not commenting on Ling Yun's explanation. Like hell I'll believe you.
After a moment of silence.
"It seems like the moment the two of you met, Lingyu's situation was the same as yours."
Ling Yun suddenly opened his mouth again, analyzing.
"That should be the case."
Ye Xingchen nodded. "However, even though today is the first time the two of us met face to face, back in Qingshui City, I had secretly followed her in order to thoroughly understand everything about you. It was just that her level was too low at that time, so she couldn't detect me."
Ye Xingchen then got to the point. "At that time, even though I could see that her constitution was extraordinary, I didn't have any desire to fight her."
Ling Yun immediately rolled his eyes. "Have you followed everyone around me before?"
Ye Xingchen giggled. "Of course. It's not like I haven't told you before. "
"The way I see it, the two of you didn't want to fight at all. Instead, you wanted to use everything you had to kill each other!"
Ling Yun's eyes flashed. "The one hundred and eight stars you released should be your ultimate killer move, right?"
This was Ye Xingchen's strongest trump card. One had to know that when Ye Xingchen rushed from the Earth Peak to the Sky Peak to meet up with Ling Yun last night, she was stopped by Luo Yongqi. In that moment of life and death, she didn't even release these one hundred and eight stars.
"Yes!"
Ye Xingchen nodded. "But they aren't magic treasures, and I didn't activate them. In that instant, they all mysteriously flew out on their own …"
"I know."
Ling Yun was very clear that Ye Xingchen, who was in the middle of Qi Cultivation Stage Five, couldn't manifest the thirty-six Heavenly Spirits and seventy-two Earthly Malevolent Stars. At her current level, she could only summon ordinary stars to fight.
"How about this, Xingchen. From now on, don't meet Lingyu again. This matter is too strange, and I have to find a way to figure it out."
Ye Xingchen smiled sweetly. "You don't have to say that. I've already discussed this when I was eating with Little Sister Xian Er just now."
"I won't meet her again. No matter what, she's your sister after all …"
…
With a stiff neck, he endured the pain and wrote another chapter. Ling Yun would leave Sky Mountain tomorrow.
