Chapter 1440 To Marry
Qing Chen’s expression was cold. Qing Bi asked tentatively, “Sect Leader, why don’t you change the person who received Fengyang Palace’s genius disciple? You don’t have to ask Lingxian to come out, do you?”
‘”If only I could change the reception of another disciple. Do you think I had to force Qing Lingxian …” Sect Leader Qing Chen suddenly became angry. “You know the current situation of the sect. At this time, Fengyang Palace would come to visit me, Shadow Sect, for no reason? That old thief Feng Immortal has already greeted me in advance. This time, he sent Feng Xin to go on a blind date.”
Even Qing Bi did not know about this matter. Now that he learned the truth, he was shocked, “No wonder, I was wondering why people from Fengyang Palace came to visit me, Shadow Sect, so kindly at such a critical juncture … Sect Leader Qing Chen, could it be that Feng Xin has taken a fancy to Zhao Lingxian?”
Qing Chen nodded. The current situation made her feel helpless.
Qing Bi immediately said, “Sect Leader, if that’s the case, you can’t let Lingxian come forward. You know that girl’s stubborn temper. If she finds out the truth, don’t get angry.”
Of course, Qing Chen had thought of this before, but now that Shadow Sect’s status as one of the five supreme beings in the Divine Continent was not guaranteed, he could only rely on this opportunity to marry Feng Yang Palace to tide over the difficulties. In front of the interests of the sect, she didn’t have the mood to consider Zhao Lingxian’s thoughts.
‘”I’ve already promised Feng Immortal about this matter. That Feng Xin is already on his way here. If nothing goes wrong, he will arrive in half an hour. There is no room for discussion on this matter. If Lingxian doesn’t show up, he will still have to show up …”
Qing Bi looked at Qing Chen in disbelief. The two of them, together with Qing Ying, were disciples of the same generation who had joined Shadow Sect together. At that time, the three women were very close and brotherly. They were naive, naughty, and kind-hearted.
Now that Qing Ying had disappeared, Qing Chen had become a cold-blooded stranger after becoming the Sect Leader. This made Qing Bi feel extremely powerless in her heart.
“Sect Leader, what exactly is Qiao Feng’s background? Not only did he come here to find Zhao Lingxian, he also mentioned Senior Sister Qingying.” Qing Bi changed the topic.
Qing Chen’s eyes flickered. Even she did not understand the relationship between them. However, the most important thing was to stabilize Shadow Sect’s position. As for Qin Feng, Qing Chen was not interested.
“Alright, go and persuade Qing Lingxian to change into new clothes and wait for the distinguished guests.” Qing Chen said in a commanding tone.
‘”Sect Leader, it’s impossible for Qing Bi to receive a disciple from Lingxian. I suspect that she really knows that Qiao Feng, and it’s very likely that he is a lover. Otherwise, why did Fengyang Palace react so fiercely when he heard Lingxian? Then why did Qiao Feng insist on seeing Spirit Immortal City regardless of his life or death?” Said Lingxian with an embarrassed expression.
Qing Bi’s analysis caused Qing Chen to suddenly wake up. She was completely focused on protecting the status of the five sect masters. She really didn’t care about anything else.
‘”According to what you said, it’s really possible, so we can’t let Lingxian meet Qiao … Where is Lingxian? Bring me over now and I’ll personally convince her.”
Qing Bi had no choice but to bring Qing Chen to Zhao Lingxian.
At this moment, Qin Feng had already stabilized the chaotic zhenqi in his body after taking a short rest. Seeing that Zhao Lingxian had yet to arrive, he felt somewhat anxious.
“Miss Qing Xiu, do you know where Lingxian lives?” Qin Feng stood up from the ground, and the Thousand Shadow Sect disciples around him were waiting for him.
Qing Xiu stood in the middle with an anxious expression. She was deeply afraid that the two sides would start fighting, “Childe Qiao, I know where Lingxian lives, but I can’t bring you there. Don’t make things difficult for me. Since the sect leader and Great Elder said that they would go find Lingxian, then naturally they wouldn’t lie to you.”
Qin Feng did not believe in Qing Chen at all, but it was not difficult for him to be handsome. However, at this moment, a white shadow shot over and unknowingly landed in front of Qin Feng.
“Elder Qing Bi, where is Spirit Immortal?” Seeing this person, Qin Feng was immediately excited.
When Qing Bi came alone, Sect Leader Qing Chen didn’t know where he had gone. There was a trace of helplessness in Qing Bi’s expression. He raised his head to look at Qin Feng and smiled as naturally as possible, “Young Hero Qiao, don’t worry. Sect Leader Qing Chen has already gone to look for Lingxian. I came here specifically to take you to the guest room to rest. Please follow me …”
Qin Feng still had a good impression of Qing Bi, so he believed her words, “Alright, Great Elder, please lead the way!”
The two of them walked into the inner courtyard of Shadow Sect one after another. Along the way, Qin Feng discovered that the sect was really filled with female disciples. Those women were all elegant and refined. When they saw a man from the sect, they immediately walked away in embarrassment.
Finally, he arrived at a quiet mountain top. There was only a wooden house around him. Qing Bi said, “I’m sorry, Young Hero Qiao, to rest here for a while. When the Sect Leader has news, I will bring you over to meet Lingxian.”
Qin Feng did not doubt him, “Qing Bi Great Elder, you’ve been taking care of Lingxian all this time, haven’t you? Is she doing well here?”
Qing Bi could tell from Qin Feng’s gaze that he doted on Lingxian. He was even more certain that the two of them were lovers. “Don’t worry, Young Hero Qiao, I am Lingxian’s master. I treat her like a child.” Lingxian’s talent is extraordinary, and she is the best candidate to cultivate our sect’s charming technique. May I ask Childe Qiao to stay behind and continue cultivating our sect’s secret technique after seeing Lingxian this time? This is for the sake of her future prospects … ”
Qing Bi did not know what Qing Chen was looking for alone with Lingxian. She first asked Qin Feng about his attitude. If Qin Feng was a knowledgeable person and was willing to let Zhao Lingxian stay in Shadow Sect to cultivate, then this matter would be solved easily.
“Qing Bi, Great Elder, I can’t answer you with certainty now. It depends on Lingxian’s own thoughts. If she is willing to stay, I will naturally not stop her.”
Qin Feng had already established his own power in the Divine Continent. In the future, this land would also be part of his activities. He did not care if Zhao Lingxian really wanted to stay in Shadow Sect.
Qing Bi was pleasantly surprised. She thought that Qin Feng would definitely take Zhao Lingxian away. As a result, Qing Bi’s impression of Qin Feng became better and better.
“By the way, Childe Qiao, you still want to see Senior Sister Qingying this time? What is the relationship between Senior Sister Qingying and you?” Qing Bi suddenly asked about Qing Ying.
When Qin Feng mentioned his mother, his calm mood immediately became chaotic. However, he hadn’t been in contact with Qing Bi for a long time, so it wasn’t easy to reveal his relationship with his mother.
“It doesn’t matter much. I just want to see you.” Qin Feng casually found a cover.
Naturally, Qing Bi did not believe it, but she could tell that Qin Feng was unwilling to say anything further, so she did not ask further about this matter.
While the two of them were conversing, in Zhao Lingxian’s room, Qing Chen was trying to persuade her to receive the genius disciples from Fengyang Palace.
“Senior Qing Chen, stop talking. I will not receive Feng Xin.” Zhao Lingxian’s attitude was as resolute as ever.
Qing Chen felt helpless and suddenly said, “Lingxian, do you already have a sweetheart?”
Zhao Lingxian was stunned. She did not expect that Qing Chen would suddenly ask such a question.
“Senior, I do have a sweetheart. I will only follow him for the rest of my life, so Senior, please don’t force me again.” Zhao Lingxian simply showcased her cards.
A trace of coldness flashed in Qing Chen’s eyes as he continued to ask, “What is your sweetheart’s name?”
Zhao Lingxian looked at Qing Chen doubtfully. She felt that something was wrong with this woman today. “You don’t know even if you said it. Don’t say it anymore.”
Qing Chen became more and more suspicious that Qiao Feng was Zhao Lingxian’s boyfriend. He immediately became anxious. If Zhao Lingxian found out that Qiao Feng was here for her, then the marriage between Shadow Sect and Fengyang Palace would definitely be over.
‘”Let’s not talk about it. Can you tell me about Spirit Immortal City and Lingxian Sect? The name of this sect is also interesting. It’s actually the same as yours” Qing Chen began to beat around the bush.
Upon mentioning Spirit Immortal City, Zhao Lingxian’s eyes lit up. This was the last glimmer of hope in her heart, “Senior, can you take me to Spirit Immortal City? My man should be there.”
Qiao Feng was a disciple of the Lingxian Sect. He had come to Shadow Sect to look for Zhao Lingxian regardless of life or death. Now that Zhao Lingxian said that his man was in Spirit Immortal City, Qing Chen understood.
At this moment, she was anxious. The disciples of Fengyang Palace were about to arrive. If the matter between Zhao Lingxian and Qiao Feng was not resolved, the current crisis in Shadow Sect would be difficult to overcome.
At this moment, a disciple rushed to Zhao Lingxian’s room to report that Fengyang Palace’s disciple Feng Xin had arrived. This made Qing Chen even more anxious.
“I see. You arrange for Young Hero Feng Xin to rest in the guest room first. Tell him that I will bring Lingxian to meet him later.”
The female disciple obeyed Sect Leader Qing Chen’s order and retreated. Zhao Lingxian immediately jumped up and shouted, “Senior, I said I won’t come out. Why do you insist on forcing me?”
Qing Chen suppressed his temper and said, “Lingxian, you have been in Shadow Sect for three months. You are also considered half a disciple of our sect. You know very well that Shadow Sect’s current situation is going to be replaced by another newly promoted sect at any moment … How about I ask you to receive a disadvantaged letter for Shadow Sect?”
Qing Chen also had no way out. As the sect leader of the Five Great Divine Continents’ Thousand Shadows Sect, he wanted to ask Zhao Lingxian.
Zhao Lingxian felt somewhat unbearable, but when she thought of Qin Feng, she immediately firmly rejected, “If it were any other matter, I, Zhao Lingxian, would definitely do my best. However, this matter is not negotiable. If I went out to receive Feng Xin, how would I be worthy of my family’s man?”
“If you agree to come forward, I will also promise you that I will bring you to Spirit Immortal City afterwards” Qing Chen had no other choice but to throw out the bait to confuse Zhao Lingxian.
This condition was too tempting for Zhao Lingxian, making her hesitate. Seeing this, Qing Chen hurriedly continued to persuade, “Lingxian, I hope you can understand my difficulties with your Master Qing Bi. We are not willing to force you to do something you don’t like, but Shadow Sect is in imminent danger, so we have no choice but to …”
“Besides, I’m only asking you to receive Feng Xin for a few days. At most, I can show him around Shadow Sect. Nothing else will happen. As long as you help Shadow Sect and Feng Yang Palace get along well, my words will count. I’ll personally take you to Spirit Immortal City.”
Qing Chen finished her sentence. She planned to set up a trap to force Qin Feng away first. As for Zhao Lingxian’s ideological work, she could take it slowly. Moreover, Feng Xin was Fengyang Palace’s eldest genius disciple. At the age of 35, he had already stepped into the seventh layer of True Qi. He was also a handsome person. Maybe Zhao Lingxian fell in love with him directly after seeing him …
