Chapter 89: Mentor’s Acting Skills

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

After confirming that Yu Huang was still alive, Lin Jiansheng immediately calmed down and regained his rationality. He no longer flew into a rage.

Lin Jiansheng suspected that Yu Huang’s fall into the Time Valley was not an accident, but something she had done deliberately. Although he did not know why Yu Huang had done this, Lin Jiansheng chose to believe her.

Grand Master Qingying had thought that Yu Huang had no one to rely on and was only a talented young Scholar. Now that she had died, Grand Master Qingying had no other thoughts than pity.

However, after discovering that Yu Huang’s mentor was actually a Level 8 Purifying Spirit Master, Grand Master Qingying found it troublesome.

Although Yu Huang’s fall into the Time Valley was an accident, it was her fault.

Grand Master Qingying waved her hand in the air and a blue jade bottle appeared in her hand.

A pained expression flashed across Grand Master Qingying’s face. She told Lin Jiansheng, “This medicinal pill is called the Rebirth Pill. It is a Heaven Grade medicinal pill refined by an Alchemy Grand Master on the Upper World’s Alchemy Continent.”

“Its effect is to restore his body. No matter how deep the injury is, as long as one still has a breath left, it can restore one’s body after taking this medicine.”

A hint of hesitation and consideration flashed across Grand Master Qingying’s eyes. In the end, she decided to part with her treasure and throw the medicine to Lin Jiansheng as compensation.

Lin Jiansheng hurriedly grabbed the medicine and opened the bottle in front of Grand Master Qingying. He took a sniff and indeed smelled a rich medicinal fragrance.

After confirming that this was indeed a rare Heaven Grade medicinal pill, Lin Jiansheng hurriedly put it away in his interspatial ring.

Seeing that Lin Jiansheng had accepted her apology gift, Grand Master Qingying could not help but heave a sigh of relief. She said that she still had something to do and quickly left.

Seeing that Grand Master Qingying had left, Lin Jiansheng glanced at the people below and accidentally saw Sheng Yang and the others walking out of the Lou Lan Ancient Pavilion.

Seeing a dignified middle-aged man beside Sheng Yang, the shrewd Lin Jiansheng recognized Sheng Lingfeng immediately.

Lin Jiansheng hurriedly flew down and guarded the path that Sheng Yang and the others had to pass through. Lin Jiansheng immediately put on a pained expression and cried sorrowfully, “Ah Huang, my poor disciple!”

Sheng Lingfeng and the others stopped in their tracks and stared at Lin Jiansheng.

Lin Jiansheng rubbed his red eyes and sighed sorrowfully. “My dear disciple, why are you so unlucky?! So a great celebrity had her beauty ruined by a fire! The bastard who kept saying that he loved you abandoned you mercilessly when he saw that you were disfigured and forced you to break off the engagement with him!”

“After suffering a series of blows, you finally came out of your sorrow. I thought that after awakening your beast form, you would have a different exciting life. Who would have thought that you would fall into the Time Valley to save people!”

“Why are you so kind?! Why are you such a busybody?! I don’t want you to be a good person. I only want you to live!” Lin Jiansheng cried as he spoke. His appearance really made those who heard it cry.

When Sheng Yang heard Lin Jiansheng’s words, her eyes were filled with tears again. She tugged at Sheng Lingfeng’s sleeve and said in a hoarse voice, “Father, we can’t be ungrateful.”

Sheng Lingfeng was not an ungrateful person. He had not moved just now because he had recognized Lin Jiansheng.

As a Level 8 Purifying Spirit Master, Lin Jiansheng was considered a big shot in the Divine Moon Empire. Sheng Lingfeng and Lin Jiansheng had met on many occasions and were considered old acquaintances.

He felt somewhat puzzled. Why would a Level 8 Purifying Spirit Master accept a Beast Tamer as his disciple?

Sheng Lingfeng suppressed his doubts and walked towards Lin Jiansheng.

When Lin Jiansheng saw Sheng Lingfeng, he hurriedly hid his sadness and pretended to be surprised as he asked, “Grand Master Sheng, why are you here?”

Sheng Lingfeng sighed and cupped his fists at Lin Jiansheng guiltily. He said, “Master Lin, I really didn’t expect that the girl who fell into the Time Valley two days ago to save my beloved daughter was actually your beloved disciple!”

Upon hearing this, Lin Jiansheng widened his eyes and turned pale from shock. He hurriedly asked, “Previously, Grand Master Qingying said that my disciple fell into the Time Valley because she wanted to save a little girl. From what you’re saying, my disciple saved your beloved daughter?”

“It’s my daughter, Sheng Yang.” Sheng Lingfeng bowed to Lin Jiansheng with gratitude. The man bent his body 90 degrees towards Lin Jiansheng.

Lin Jiansheng revealed a sorrowful expression and lamented, “Forget it, forget it. That disciple of mine had a short unlucky life.” He seemed to have aged by a few years, and his strong and sturdy body had become hunched.

When Sheng Lingfeng saw that Lin Jiansheng was in so much pain, he felt sad too.

After a moment of silence, Sheng Lingfeng continued, “Yu Huang died to save my daughter, Sheng Yang. The Sheng family owes her too much! We can’t repay her kindness. Mr. Lin, I don’t know what I have to do to make you feel better.”

Lin Jiansheng was waiting for Sheng Lingfeng to say this. His eyes turned red again as he replied in a low voice, “If there’s a day when I really need the Sheng family’s help, I will come to find you. At that time, I hope you won’t reject me.”

Sheng Lingfeng had always been upright and frank. He immediately promised, “The Sheng family owes Yu Huang a huge favor. In the future, if you are in trouble and need help, the Sheng family will definitely do our best to help! We will never go back on our words!”

After a pause, Sheng Lingfeng added, “Of course, helping a villain do evil doesn’t count.”

Lin Jiansheng said, “You have to remember what you said today!”

With that, Lin Jiansheng looked at the sobbing Sheng Yang and asked her, “Did that disciple of mine say anything before she fell into the Time Valley?”

Sheng Yang shook her head. “No, Yu Huang didn’t manage to say anything before… she fell into the Time Valley.”

Lin Jiansheng was stunned for a moment before saying, “I have to go say goodbye to her. She had no one to rely on, no parents. The road to heaven is too cold, so I have to accompany her to talk.”

With that said, Lin Jiansheng teleported and barged into the Lou Lan Ancient Pavilion, which was about to close.

Seeing this, Sheng Yang looked up at Sheng Lingfeng and asked worriedly, “Father, the Lou Lan Ancient Pavilion is about to close. Won’t he be in danger for breaking into the Lou Lan Ancient Pavilion?”

Sheng Lingfeng looked back at the slowly closing door and said thoughtfully, “He’s a Level 8 Purifying Spirit Master. He should be able to protect himself.”

Sheng Yang was relieved.

…

Lin Jiansheng barged into the Lou Lan Ancient Pavilion and jumped into the eye of the spring. In the next moment, his figure appeared at the edge of the cliff. After the Lou Lan Ancient Pavilion closed, the energy in theTime Valley once again went out of control, and the entire deep valley became dark.

The light clusters of cultivation techniques that had been floating in the deep valley had all been hidden long ago, as if they were hiding from something terrifying. The birds on the cliff cried out uneasily, and in the space-time vortex at the bottom of the valley, lightning flashed and thunder rumbled, as if the end of the world had arrived.

Lin Jiansheng could sense how terrifying and freaky the bottom of the valley was just by standing at the edge of the cliff. His heart trembled, and he suspected that Yu Huang had long been pulverized by the Time Valley.

However, the blood contract in the Spiritual Abode was still glowing red. This meant that Yu Huang was still alive.

“Ah Huang, what exactly are you doing…”

His disciple was too bold and capricious. As her mentor, he was always worried and afraid.. Lin Jiansheng suspected that he would be frightened to death by Yu Huang sooner or later.
