"Sect Master Ning ….." Seeing Ning Cheng come in, Nalan Ruxue, who was sitting quietly in the reception room, stood up.
Lian 'e, who was accompanying Ning Cheng, immediately left the reception room when she saw Ning Cheng come in. She had heard about Ning Cheng and Nalan Ruxue's matters from Meng Jingxiu. Speaking of which, this was Nalan Ruxue's second visit to the Rainbow Fall Sword Sect. The first time was when she came to visit Meng Jingxiu.
"Why are you looking for me?" Ning Cheng gestured for Nalan Ruxue to sit down before speaking.
If it was Yan Ji, then perhaps he would have been pleasantly surprised. Even if it was not Yan Ji, but rather Cheng Yixiao, he would still be happier than seeing this woman.
Nalan Ruxue's arrival did not surprise him at all. In terms of appearance, Nalan Ruxue was no worse than Yan Ji, and even Rainbow Fall Sword Sect's premier beauty, Luo Ziyan. However, Nalan Ruxue's character was too bad, and Ning Cheng hated this kind of woman.
However, Nalan Ruxue's qualifications were truly amazing. Although she had not been in the Tian Continent for a long time, she had already reached the 5th Level of Sea Opening Realm. In terms of cultivation, she was even a bit higher than him.
"I joined the Battle Devil Hall. After coming out of seclusion, I learned that you were getting married, so I came to congratulate you." Nalan Ruxue seemed to know that Ning Cheng did not have a good impression of her and spoke with a careful tone.
Regarding Nalan Ruxue's congratulations, Ning Cheng did not take it to heart. Even if Nalan Ruxue congratulated him, he and Nalan Ruxue would never become friends. What surprised him was that Nalan Ruxue actually joined the Battle Devil Hall. The Battle Devil Hall was ranked second among the top ten sects of the Tian Continent, second only to the Thousand Zen Monastery and even more powerful than the Heavenly Dao Academy.
The Battle Devil Hall was a Devil Cultivator Sect. Although the Tian Continent did not care about Devil Cultivators and Dao Cultivators, in the Le Continent, Devil Cultivators were hated by everyone. Initially, because he used a Cosmic True Devil Axe, which overflowed with Devil Qi, he became a wanted criminal. Nalan Ruxue came from the Le Continent, so it stood to reason that she should hate Devil Cultivators. How could she join a Devil Cultivator Sect?
The Le Continent's Thoughtless Academy was most disgusted with Devil Cultivators. Now that the premier disciple of the Thoughtless Academy had joined the Battle Devil Hall, it truly was an irony.
"Haha, I really didn't expect you to actually join the Battle Demon Hall … Congratulations, congratulations." Thinking back to the time when the Wu Nian Academy had put him on the wanted list, Ning Cheng originally wanted to say a few sarcastic words, but thinking that the other party had come to congratulate him on his wedding, he finally swallowed the words that were on the tip of his tongue. Even if he did, he wouldn't grow any flesh.
Nalan Ruxue lowered her head. Except for herself, no one knew why she joined the Battle Devil Hall. With her qualifications, she could have joined any sect in the Heaven Continent. However, she had chosen to join the Battle Demon Hall.
"This is a gift for you and Big Sister Luofei." Nalan Ruxue handed Ning Cheng a jade box.
Ning Cheng took the jade box, but did not open it, and just said a word of thanks.
Seeing Ning Cheng take the jade box, Nalan Ruxue sighed. She stood up again and gave Ning Cheng a deep bow, "Sect Master Ning, in addition to congratulating you on your wedding, I also came here to apologise to you and thank you for saving my life. If it weren't for you, I'm afraid that Sikong Kai would have already swallowed me whole. I was ignorant before, not only did I not thank you, but I even doubted you. "
For Nalan Ruxue, this was the first time she had ever apologized to someone. If replaced with her from back then, even if she did something wrong, she would at most feel guilty and feel a little guilty. However, she would never apologize to others.
Perhaps it was due to the influence of Meng Jingxiu's words. Back then, her qualifications were much higher than Meng Jingxiu's. Even when Ning Cheng asked Meng Jingxiu to join the Wu Nian Academy, she rejected him. When she met Meng Jingxiu again in the Tian Continent, Meng Jingxiu was already a late-stage Crucible Transformation Cultivator, while she was still at the early-stage of Sea Opening Realm.
Just like how she looked down on Ning Cheng, she also disdained Ning Cheng from joining the Wu Nian Academy. Now, Ning Cheng was the Sect Master of one of the top ten sects in the Tian Continent. Even the Hall Master of the Battle Devil Hall personally came to congratulate Ning Cheng on his wedding. Ning Cheng, who was out of her reach in the past, was now an unreachable existence to her.
Sometimes, what the eyes saw was not necessarily true. Meng Jingxiu and Ning Cheng, who used to be far inferior to her, now far surpassed her. This made her understand a truth, that is, at any time, one should never look at oneself as something great. When you look at yourself as something great, or even after countless years, in the eyes of the people you once looked down on, you would still be as insignificant as before.
She remembered the last time she came to see Meng Jingxiu, and the words that Meng Jingxiu spoke to her, "Nalan Ruxue, the truth is that in my eyes, you are just a person with a golden key in his mouth, someone who helped you pave the way for you to walk. I am not ridiculing you, because it is the truth.
A person who is not grateful, even if you have a golden key, your achievements would still be limited. Initially, in order to save you, Ning Cheng took me to sneak into the Immortal Cave of a Profound Congealing Cultivator. I saw with my own eyes how terrifying that Profound Congealing Nefarious Cultivator was. When he first saw you, he wanted to tear off your clothes. As for what he wanted to do, I believe that you will understand.
At that time, Ning Cheng was only at the early stages of Essence Building Realm. Moreover, under that grave, there was not even a single Profound Congealing Cultivator. In addition to Sikong Kai, there was also another Hang Jiaojiao. It can be said that Ning Cheng used his life to save you, but how did you repay Ning Cheng? I do not want to say that I am ungrateful, but this is indeed the case. To be honest, I have never seen a person like Ning Cheng, he really has a kind heart. This is also the reason why I am willing to become his best friend, and also the reason why I am willing to come to the Rainbow Fall Sword Sect. "
Although Nalan Ruxue knew that what Meng Jingxiu said was not the whole truth, at least she was not the kind of cultivator with a golden key in her mouth, and would only hide in someone's house to cultivate. She did not refute Meng Jingxiu's words, she truly felt sorry for Ning Cheng, but unfortunately, the words in her heart could not be spoken to anyone.
When she left the Rainbow Fall Sword Sect, she at least understood a truth. That is, the academy or her master was not necessarily right, there were some things that she needed to judge on her own. When she came out of the Law's Way, she knew that Ning Cheng had saved her, but under the teachings of her master, she could not be like Yan Ji.
Yan Ji was much more independent than her, after she identified Ning Cheng, no matter who or what, even if it was her academy or her family, could not affect her in the slightest.
Yue Ying had once told her that Ning Cheng told her that sometimes what she saw with her own eyes, was not necessarily the truth. Yue Ying had long understood this truth, but she, Nalan Ruxue, only understood it today.
Towards Nalan Ruxue's apology and gratitude, Ning Cheng was not moved at all. Just imagine, if he had been killed by Nalan Ruxue's Daoist Priestess master, after all these years, would Nalan Ruxue still remember who Ning Cheng was? Or perhaps she would have long forgotten about him.
Initially, Nalan Ruxue not only suspected him, but also used him. However, Ning Cheng did not want to care about these trivial things.
"I have long forgotten about those things." Ning Cheng spoke in a flat tone.
Not caring about Ning Cheng's tone, after Nalan Ruxue finished speaking, she seemed to have relaxed a bit. Saying that she and Ning Cheng had already done the deed between husband and wife, this kind of words was spread out by her master, but she did not deliberately stop it. This kind of thing only she understood, she was not using Ning Cheng, she also did not need to explain it to Ning Cheng.
"After Yue Ying and Yue Yuan Hua came to know that the Wu Nian Academy had issued a warrant for you, they were very dissatisfied with me and the Wu Nian Academy, and also left the academy. As for where they are now, I do not know. "Nalan Ruxue continued.
Ning Cheng then remembered this pair of talented siblings, as well as An Yi, he suddenly felt a bit guilty in his heart. When he was in the Le Continent, he unexpectedly did not think of looking for the three of them.
"After saying these words, I feel a lot better in my heart, I'm leaving." Nalan Ruxue did not continue to stay, as she quickly turned around and left.
Ning Cheng also did not call out to Nalan Ruxue, he estimated that the two of them would not have many opportunities to meet in the future. Opening the jade box, he found an Escape Talisman inside. It was the same Escape Talisman that he had used when he was forced by Nalan Ruxue's master to escape.
Closing the jade box again, Ning Cheng sat quietly for a long time. It was not until Ji Luofei came in that he stood up and spoke, "Luofei, I'm going to hand over the position of Sect Master to Sect Master Tantai. We are going to Heaven's Way, the Rainbow Fall Sword Sect cannot do without a Sect Master. "
Regarding Ning Cheng passing the position of Sect Master to himself, Tantai Fei, after discussing it with the two Grand Elders, did not refuse. After several people discussed it, they decided that after Ning Cheng entered Heaven's Way, the Rainbow Fall Sword Sect would once again hold a Sect Master inauguration ceremony.
… …
From the time Ning Cheng obtained the Spiritual Vein to the time he returned to the sect, he had not cultivated for even a single day. After handing over the position of Sect Master to Tantai Fei, Ning Cheng and Ji Luofei immediately went into seclusion.
Whether Heaven's Way was dangerous or not, no one knew. However, everyone was clear about one thing, that is, among the many people who entered Heaven's Way, at least not a single one of them could come back.
Ning Cheng took out the Spiritual Vein from the Miniature World and placed it under his Immortal Cave. The Miniature World did not have any laws to speak of, so if one wanted to have more formidable strength, then going into seclusion at the Rainbow Fall Sword Peak would definitely be much more formidable than going into seclusion in the Miniature World.
Ji Luofei did not use the Spiritual Vein to cultivate with Ning Cheng; she only needed Spirit Stones. Ning Cheng had a total of several billion Spirit Stones on him, so Ji Luofei's cultivation did not feel any pressure at all.
Three months later, Ning Cheng advanced to the 5th Level of the Sea Opening Realm. Seven months later, Ning Cheng broke through to the 6th Level of the Sea Opening Realm. A year later, when Ning Cheng completely consumed his Spiritual Veins, he barely advanced to the 7th Level of the Sea Opening Realm.
Ning Cheng could clearly feel that even if he used the Spiritual Vein for cultivation, his cultivation speed was getting slower and slower. Tan Yun, with just a little bit of the Spiritual Vein, was able to cultivate to the Crucible Transformation Realm. As for the extra Spiritual Vein, she even gave it to Ning Ruolan and the others for cultivation. However, even though he had used twice the amount of Spiritual Vein compared to Tan Yun, he could only cultivate to the 7th Level of Sea Opening Realm, which was only three small levels of advancement. Although he still had a small lump of Essence of Wood, Ning Cheng was not willing to use it.
In any case, Ning Cheng knew that there was no longer any meaning for him to continue staying in the Rainbow Fall Sword Sect. On this day, after Ning Cheng refined the Flame Beacon Diagram that he obtained from the Red Star Sword Faction, he called out Luofei and bid farewell to the Rainbow Fall Sword Sect's Tantai Fei, Zhong Liping and the other Crucible Transformation Cultivators, as well as the Rainbow Fall Sword Peak's Nan Yuefang, Lian 'e, Yang Honghuo and the others.
