Chapter 807: A Ball Could Only Be Crushed Once

Translator: Sparrow Translations Editor: Sparrow Translations

“Two Qian Ye?!” That was Fang Zhengzhi’s first thought, but he quickly rejected it because they gave off different airs.

Of course, he figured out her ident.i.ty from what she had said, even though it was unbelievable.

In fact, Fang Zhengzhi had never seen Qian Yu before. He had never heard anyone discussing about her looks or special features.

However, when he saw her face and heard her voice, he already knew who she was.

In that case, how could Ping Yang be clueless?

Ping Yang froze on the spot instantly and she let go of the Blazing Qilin Spear without even realising. It fell onto the ground with a clang.

However, she seemed oblivious to all of these. She was focused on nothing but Qian Yu.

Time stood still at this moment.

Their eyes met. Both of their eyes were equally clear, and even expressed the same emotions.

Ping Yang didn’t say anything. She just bit her trembling lips tightly, and she teared up.

She had waited too long for this moment that she almost gave up hope, suffering from a continuous emotional pain.

She fell into despair after she heard what Cang Yue had said. She wasn’t afraid of dying, but she couldn’t accept her fate. She wanted to see her mother, even if she could only take a quick glance.

Yet, there was a woman who looked just like Qian Ye standing in front of her now, and her eyes were as clear as water just like Ping Yang’s.

Ping Yang didn’t dare to believe what she was seeing because she wasn’t sure if it was real. She was afraid that the person standing in front of her would disappear if she blinked even once.

Hence, although her tears had blurred her vision, Ping Yang didn’t blink a single time.

“Child, my child…” Qian Yu was also looking closely and intently at Ping Yang. Her cold expression melted, and there was nothing but the excitement of a mother meeting her child.

Extreme excitement!

There was no talking or pouring of their hearts out. They just gazed at each other while the word ‘Child’ echoed in the surroundings.

That was right… Child!

The child that was taken away from her mother shortly after birth and was separated from her for over a decade, had grown into a 16 years old girl in the blink of an eye.

Then, she suddenly appeared in front of her mother.

In that case, how could the mother remain calm, even if she was in a critical situation and had important matters at hand.

Lin Mubai was also tearing up, he wanted to loudly remind Ping Yang that the woman was her mother and she should call her ‘Mom’.

However, he didn’t say a word, because he knew that it wasn’t necessary. As long as the two of them, the most important people in his life, were standing together, they would surely understand each other.

That was the power of blood!

In 16 years, the child had grown into a youthful lady, and she had found her mother.

Such a scene… Was tear-jerking even for Ling Yun Tower’s disciples. Some of them even lowered their heads and started weeping.

“I pay my respect to Lady Qian Yu!”

“We are willing to serve you again, Lady Qian Yu!”

“We are willing to serve you again!”

A bunch of voices exclaimed loudly, following which, over a dozen disciples knelt down on the ground.

If they were still full of disbelief and hesitation when Qian Yu had just appeared, then at this moment, they had discarded all their worries.

A simple sentence had ill.u.s.trated their unwavering determination.

These disciples knew the consequences of saying that, but they didn’t care. That was because the woman standing in front of them was Qian Yu, once the pride and honour of Ling Yun Tower and also the woman that they had sworn on their lives to serve.

At this moment, everyone was focused on Qian Ye and Ping Yang, including Fang Zhengzhi.

That was because even he couldn’t figure out what happened on the outside after he was trapped in the Mountain River World.

Qian Yu?

Yu Er…

Her surname is Qian? Just like Qian Ye!

Fang Zhengzhi felt like his understand of the world was turned upside down. He didn’t need to guess to know the relations.h.i.+p between the two women who shared the same surname.

However, that wasn’t too important, because as he looked at Qian Yu and Ping Yang, he was reminded of the saying ‘Every cloud has a silver lining’.

She got out of the seal?!

Fang Zhengzhi would rather believe that Wu Yuer took a misstep and fell into a water puddle than believe that Qian Yu had somehow undone her seal.

After all, he was supposed to be up for the task.

Even he took 10,000 steps back, it was impossible for Qian Yu to get out of the seal, because Ping Yang was still alive. How could she possibly escape?

Did he guess correctly?

Was Cang Yue actually responsible for the seal instead of Ping Yang?

As this thought entered his mind, Fang Zhengzhi quickly scanned the surroundings and soon spotted a person lying on the ground. He couldn’t see her face because it was covered by Lin Mubai’s outerwear, but the purple dress gave her ident.i.ty away.

“Cang Yue, is dead? Who killed her?” Fang Zhengzhi was struck dumb because he knew that he didn’t do it. In fact, he even handed Cang Yue back to Qian Ye.

How did Cang Yue die?

Did Lin Mubai kill her?

That was impossible!

Fang Zhengzhi would never believe that Lin Mubai was capable of killing her in front of Qian Ye and all the disciples of Ling Yun Tower. After all, if he was really that powerful, he wouldn’t have waited for a dozen years in Great Xia Dynasty.

If Lin Mubai didn’t kill her, who did?

Qian Ye?

That was equally impossible, because if Cang Yue’s death had something to do with Qian Yu’s seal, how could Qian Ye possibly kill her.

She didn’t commit suicide, did she?

Wait a minute!

Suicide?

Cang Yue committed suicide?!

Fang Zhengzhi’s eyes went agape. That was as unbelievable as someone telling him that Lin Mubai had actually fallen in love with Qian Ye at first sight, not Qian Yu.

However… It seemed like Cang Yue actually committed suicide. Furthermore, that was the only plausible explanation.

“Suicide? I got it!” Fang Zhengzhi had wanted to comment that the world was too crazy that even someone like Cang Yue would commit suicide.

However, his expression turned solemn just as he was about to say it. It was a heartfelt respect.

That was because he knew why Cang Yue had committed suicide. As a servant, she was willing to take a gamble with her life even though the chance was so slim. In that case, no matter how much wrong she did, she was worthy of respect.

Loyalty.

No matter what Cang Yue did, she had at the very least proven her loyalty.

“Mo… Mother?!” Ping Yang finally said the word that was long overdue. She looked extremely hopeful when she said that. She was hoping that this wasn’t a dream.

“My child, it’s me…” Qian Yu nodded heavily, and she could no longer hold her tears back.

“Mother!”

“…”

This reunion after such a long time was enough to make many Ling Yun Tower’s disciples tear up, even though their sect was known for its heartlessness.

However, at this instance… A ray of radiance descended from the sky. It was as bright as the sun and felt hot due to the scorching weather.

It shot towards Ping Yang like a bolt of lightning.

Ping Yang’s body trembled as she felt the approaching danger. She also knew where it came from.

Qian Ye!

While she turned towards Qian Yu, Qian Ye decided to backstab her!

The leader of the mighty Ling Yun Tower finally lost it and decided to use a lethal move against Ping Yang, who had just become a Sage.

Everything happened so suddenly, but there were still two people who reacted. One of them was Fang Zhengzhi, who was standing beside Ping Yang. The other person was Qian Yu, who still had years in her eyes.

Fang Zhengzhi’s reaction was simple. He hugged Ping Yang as soon as the radiance descended and intended to dodge the attack.

He was obviously fast enough since he wasn’t too far away from Ping Yang. In fact, he was almost right next to her.

However… To his surprise, Qian Yu somehow appeared beside Ping Yang just as his arms wrapped around her waist.

Most importantly, Qian Yu also put her arm around Ping Yang’s waist.

“Hmm?” Fang Zhengzhi was startled because he didn’t expect Qian Yu to be so fast.

After all, she was further away from Ping Yang than he was.

Of course, Qian Yu was equally surprised by Fang Zhengzhi’s speed and reaction. She exclaimed softly from astonishment when she wrapped her arm around Ping Yang.

There was a kind of cup that had a handle on the left and another on the right, called “You left I right”…

It was a ‘euphonious’ name which had a simple meaning. When both the handles are held by both of your hands, it stood for a way of paying your respect to someone.

It was also known as ‘clasping your fists’!

Of course, under such conditions, the cup would be extremely stable.

However, Ping Yang wasn’t in a stable situation, because the golden radiance from the sky was about to hit her.

“…”

“…”

Fang Zhengzhi wanted to curse out loud. He had never expected Qian Yu to gain the upper hand as the latecomer and grabbed Ping Yang’s waist at the same time as he did.

This made things awkward.

Courtesy!

Fang Zhengzhi knew how to be courteous, but he never really cared about being courteous. However, he somehow chose to let go of Ping Yang at this moment…

Then, he realised that Qian Yu also let go of Ping Yang.

“…”

“…”

For an instant, Fang Zhengzhi met eyes with Qian Yu. There wasn’t any exchange of angry emotions involved, but Fang Zhengzhi really wanted to say “s.h.i.+t!”.

Of course, he made a rare decision of being courteous twice in a single day. Even though he wanted to curse, he still leapt forward and s.h.i.+elded Ping Yang’s body from the falling radiance.

Then… There was no then.

That was because Qian Yu also leapt forward, and in fact, she leapt higher than he did. Therefore, it was obvious Fang Zhengzhi wouldn’t be struck by the golden radiance.

However, that didn’t matter anymore. What was important was that Fang Zhengzhi spotted Qian Ye holding another golden orb which contained another world similar to the Mountain River World, except for the fact that it was covered in snow.

“There’s another one?!” Fang Zhengzhi finally knew why Qian Ye decided to backstab Ping Yang first, because that was the only way she had a chance to entrap all three of them in that golden orb.

However, could she really pull off the same trick on the same person for a second time and expect the same results?

Fang Zhengzhi smiled confidently, because he wanted to beat his chest and say, “No!”

He knew how powerful the attack was and how much luck was needed to escape from it. He was also aware that he couldn’t get so lucky again. Despite all that, he was brave enough to say “No!”.

That was because… A ball could only be crushed once!
