Chapter 46.3: It"s Been a Long Time
With a minor interlude where there was a duel between two young ladies, the atmosphere was warmed up quite a bit. After that an incessant stream of lithe and limber bodied dancers came onto the stage, and cla.s.sical instruments played while the dancers waved their flowy sleeves in beautiful dance, a beautiful and mesmerizing sight.
"The Duke of Vast Seas" surname….. is actually the same as ours!" Qing Bei muttered to himself, and then turned to the person beside him. "Sis, you….. Eh? Where is she? ?"
The seat beside him was vacant and unoccupied. Qing Bei"s eyes grew wide. She was just sitting here a moment ago, why had she suddenly disappeared? And she had not even said a single thing to him.
The lad pursed up his lips in thought. [He must have gotten too excited tonight when he saw the man he had admired for so long.] Qing Bei did not think any further about it and just continued to secretly look at the man who had his head lowered as he sipped at his drink without much expression.
At that same moment, with the moon hanging just over their heads, it was silent outside the palace and only the low chirping of insects could be heard.
During a midsummer season like this, the night breeze was supposed to make a person feel comfortable. But for some unknown reason, it felt a little chilly, and with the gust of cold wind blowing past her, her dazed and groggy mind seemed to clear up quite a bit.
Her beautiful and alluring eyes then narrowed slightly as she looked up at the round moon, a million thoughts going through her mind.
[Why did she have such an ominous feeling?]
[And it had started only after the people from the Water Edge Kingdom came in. But it did not seem like there could be any kind of link between them, so….. Whose eye could she have drawn upon herself? She usually kept a low profile and she did not remember making any enemies!]
"Ah choo~" She shivered and suddenly let out a sneeze.
Qing Yu rubbed her nose violently and cursed out softly. "d.a.m.n it! Who is the scoundrel cursing me?"
In the Cloud Heaven"s east, sat a large family sect with a hundred year history.
With their amazing skills in elixir cultivation, the family clan helped the dead and healed the injured, a.s.sisting the poor and alleviated impoverishment. Their upright and kindly morals gained the praise and approval of the people, known as the Divine Healers, with Bai as the family surname.
The current sitting Sect Leader of the Divine Healers Sect was the seventeenth Sect Leader, named Bai Qiu, highly skilled in healing, a sage who cared for all under the Heavens, and was also Bai Zhi Yan"s father.
But for the father and son who had not seen each other for many years, it seemed their reunion after such a long time wasn"t such a happy one.
"Ay ay! Father, don"t walk away yet. Let me explain….."
"Boom!"
The great big ancient doors of the Divine Healers Sect shut tightly with a boom, very nearly hitting Bai Zhi Yan on the nose.
Bai Zhi Yan was feeling rather melancholy as he turned his head back begrudgingly. "What do we do now? We"re not even able to get in through the door. Didn"t you say that it wouldn"t be a problem?"
Behind him in dominating and flamboyant purple lavish clothes, his facial features deeply handsome looking, wasn"t that Luo Jun Yao in person?
"Hmm….. Seems like your father….. does not want to see me, which leads to him not wanting to see you as well." Luo Jun Yao rubbed at his chin, and came up with that conclusion.
"Dammit, do I need you to tell me that?" Bai Zhi Yan could not help but curse out.
"Then just barge your way in." Luo Jun Yao said highly casually.
Bai Zhi Yan rolled his eyes. "Do you think the Divine Healers Sect is a place that anyone can barge into as they like? This place is not part of your territory and there could be countless traps waiting for you inside. I had not been back for so many years and I don"t even know if there were any changes made."
Luo Jun Yao raised an eyebrow and went walking forward on his own. He placed his large hand on the door and pushed on it lightly. The door then opened surprisingly.
Bai Zhi Yan had clearly used almost all his might to push at the door earlier, and he had not been able to move the door an inch.
After the door was opened, it was completely silent inside, without even the shadow of a person in there. The place looked completely desolate, like no one had ever lived in that place before.
