As the Universe Turns - Chapter 222
Chapter 222 Heavenly Spirit Sect
“Mm …”
Chu Tianhe nodded his head and smiled, “A few days ago in the West Ridge Mountain Range, thank you two little friends for your help. That’s why this little girl escaped danger.”
Ling Luan chuckled and snorted, “Yeah, if Liao Wuchen and Sister Hua Weiyang hadn’t come in time, Second Senior Brother and I would have been captured in Yinshan Sect. The people of Yinshan Sect are getting bolder and bolder. They actually dare to come to our place to act wildly …”
At this point, she looked at Chu Tianhe with her big eyes wide open and asked curiously, “Third Granduncle, why are the people from Yinshan Sect here? Does Grandpa know about this?”
Chu Tianhe slightly focused and looked at her, “It’s good that you’re fine now. Next month, I’ll have someone escort you back to the Heavenly Pagoda …”
“Oh …”
Ling Luan pouted. She thought to herself that Third Uncle wouldn’t tell her anything. Every time something happened in the sect, Grandpa wouldn’t tell her. She was at least a member of the Heavenly Spirit Sect. Could it be that because she was young, she didn’t tell her sect what had happened?
Beside him, Mu Baiyu remained silent. Although Ling Luan could not guess, he knew that the sudden appearance of Yinshan Sect’s people on the West Ridge Mountain Range was unusual.
Chu Tianhe said, “Alright, let’s go back to the sect first. Little friend Wu Chen and Miss Wei Yang are tired from traveling these days. Let’s go.” With that, he raised his hand and transformed into a cloud of mist, carrying a few people up the mountain.
When they reached Spirit Mountain, the plants and trees on it grew even more prosperous. It was as if the entire mountain was wrapped in a dense spiritual energy, but outside, there were layers upon layers of restriction formations.
From the outside, those defensive formations looked like a mountain mist. If outsiders rashly entered, they would not be able to penetrate these clouds. Inside was the Heavenly Spirit Sect.
When they arrived at the sect, they saw rows of buildings that looked like Immortal Palace’s Hainan Tower. Some of them were built on floating islands, while others looked like they were standing on clouds. They looked quite glorious and magnificent. Compared to the Mysterious Green Sect, they were no less dangerous and lonely than the Seven Mysterious Green Peaks.
When they arrived at a white jade plaza, they saw three grand halls towering majestically. In the middle was a grand hall named “Heavenly Spirit Hall”. The two side halls on the left and right were “Nine Radiance Hall” and “Heavenly Heavens Hall” respectively.
The three halls shone brightly under the sunlight, revealing an extremely dignified feeling. One could feel the might of the Heavenly Spirit Sect with just a single glance.
Chu Tianhe looked at Ling Luan and said, “The Sect Master and a few elders are discussing in the hall. Let’s go to the Nine Radiance Hall first.”
“Mm-hmm!”
Ling Luan smiled sweetly. Now that she had returned home, how could she be so courteous as she was in the Extreme Heaven Pagoda? Along the way, many disciples of the Heavenly Spirit Sect came to greet her. Many people also noticed Xiao Chen and Hua Weiyang. They couldn’t help but feel a little puzzled. It had been a long time since the sect had any visitors. Who were these two?
After arriving at the Nine Radiance Hall, Chu Tianhe instructed his disciples to entertain Xiao Chen and Hua Weiyang and settle Ling Luan down before hurrying out.
After returning home, Ling Luan naturally wouldn’t be reserved, but seeing that Xiao Chen was still a little courteous and didn’t even touch the tea, he smiled and said, “Liao Wuchen, Sister Wei Yang, this is my home. Don’t be so courteous! These desserts are delicious. Try them!”
Hua Weiyang smiled gently. He didn’t seem to be too restrained. However, Xiao Chen sat by the side and didn’t say a word. This was his first time in Heavenly Spirit Sect. He was inevitably a little restrained. Moreover, this time he was asking for help, so he naturally wouldn’t appear too casual.
Mu Baiyu smiled gently and picked up the tea cup in his hand. “Brother Wu Chen, please don’t be so restrained,” he smiled.
Just as he finished speaking, a burst of hurried footsteps came from outside. Immediately after, a beautiful lady hurriedly walked in and said, “Ling’er!”
“Ya! Mother, you’re here!”
Ling Luan jumped down from the chair and ran over quickly. The madam also hugged her tightly. She looked left and right as if she was afraid that she would lose a hair. She anxiously asked, “Ling’er, are you alright?”
“It’s fine, it’s fine. Mother, don’t worry …”
Ling Luan shook her head. The lady in front of her was her mother, Jiang shi. She had heard that her beloved daughter had met someone from the Yin Mountain Sect in the West Ridge Mountain Range a few days ago. These days, she had never closed her eyes peacefully.
“Do you know how worried Mother is about you? Why didn’t you tell me in advance when you came back this time? What if …”
Mrs. Jiang’s eyes turned red as she spoke. Ling Luan leaned against her embrace and muttered, “Alright, mother, don’t worry. Ling’er has grown up now …”
“Mother …”
At this time, Mu Baiyu also walked over with his head lowered. His expression was a little nervous. Jiang shi looked at him and said, “What happened? How did you meet people from the Yin Mountain Sect?”
Mu Baiyu lowered his head and said, “It’s all because of this disciple’s lack of skill. That’s why …”
“Forget it …”
Mrs. Jiang shook her hand and sighed, “It’s good that you guys are fine. In the future, you should stay in the sect and learn from your master. Don’t run out anymore.”
“Yes … disciple understands.”
Mu Baiyu lowered his head and didn’t dare to say anything else.
Jiang shi looked at Xiao Chen and Hua Weiyang again. She naturally knew who they were. Ling Luan smiled and said, “They are Wu Chen and Sister Wei Yang.”
“Mm …”
Mrs. Jiang nodded and smiled. She took a few steps forward and looked at the two with a smile. “I thank Young Hero Wu Chen and Miss Wei Yang for saving me in the West Ridge Mountain Range a few days ago.”
Hua Weiyang Ying Ying smiled, “Madam Chu is too serious. Speaking of which, Sister Ling Luan is also Wu Chen’s junior sister in the Extreme Heaven Pagoda.” At this point, he turned to look at Xiao Chen, who was standing beside him, with a smile on his face.
“Good, good …”
Mrs. Jiang nodded and smiled. With the relationship between the Heavenly Pagoda, the two of them were closer.
Just like that, when night fell, Sect Master Chu Tianqing still hadn’t come out. Jiang shi instructed her disciples to arrange accommodation for Xiao Chen and Hua Weiyang, and then she brought Ling Luan back to her bedroom. It had been a year since the mother and daughter had seen each other, so she naturally had a lot to say.
A crescent moon gradually rose outside the window. Ling Luan leaned against her mother’s embrace and muttered, “Mother, did something happen in the sect? Why did I come back? Grandpa didn’t come out to see me. It wasn’t like this in the past …”
Mrs. Jiang smiled gently and stroked her long hair on her back. She said softly, “It’s fine. You can return to the Extreme Heaven Pagoda safely next month. Your grandfather will deal with the matters in the sect.”
“No, no …”
Ling Luan pursed his lips and looked up at her, “Mother, are you hiding something from me? Why did you suddenly let me leave the sect and go to Celestial Pogoda …”
Mrs. Jiang shook her head and continued, “Alright, Ling’er, listen. Don’t ask, okay? You can stay in Celestial Pogoda safely. Mother can rest assured.” At this point, he asked, “Oh right, that Liao Wuchen, what is your relationship with him?”
“Ah? What’s the relationship?”
Ling Luan turned her head away and muttered something in a low voice.
Knowing that her daughter was like a mother, how could Jiang shi not see through her little thoughts? It was just that Luo Hua had a heart, did Flowing Water also have a heart? She couldn’t help but sigh in her heart.
Ling Luan turned around and looked at her seriously. “Mother, I have something to tell you.”
“Hmm? What is it?”
“Mm …”
Ling Luan thought for a long time and finally said, “Liao Wuchen has a very powerful backlash. He must … must have the seed of evergreen flowers and leaves before he can be cured.”
“What?”
Hearing this, Mrs. Jiang’s expression immediately changed. She actually wanted the seed of evergreen flowers and leaves …
