Chapter 283: You Guys are So Nice (Part 1)

Both of their gazes turned toward Shangguan Huanling at the same time.

It was as if they blinked open their eyes at the exact moment, lifting their heads simultaneously. Two persons, yet it seemed like one soul was controlling two bodies.

“Huanling, what are you doing here?” Bai Qiulan asked.

Yue Hongling withdrew her hands, beginning to melt the frost.

“Oh, it’s nothing. I just came to check on you two. It’s been a while since we met, and I was feeling a bit lonely all by myself,” Shangguan Huanling said with a smile.

“But it’s okay, soon I’ll be crossing my tribulation and will be able to find my brother Lu Ye.”

Bai Qiulan gazed at the beaming smile on Shangguan Huanling’s face.

Hmm?

Why does it feel so happy?

To be honest, Bai Qiulan hadn’t seen such a smile in a long, long time.

She hesitated slightly.

“Huanling, is there something you’re happy about?”

Shangguan Huanling was taken aback. “No, it’s just the usual routine of cultivating and doing business; there’s nothing to be happy about.”

“Then why are you smiling so joyfully?” Bai Qiulan couldn’t understand. She remembered that their group hadn’t shown relaxed smiles in ages.

“Am I smiling happily? I didn’t even notice! Maybe it’s because when I was crossing the Three Lifetimes Tribulation, I was in love with Lu Ye for three lifetimes, so that’s why I’m so happy!”

Bai Qiulan…

Yue Hongling opened her eyes at this moment.

“You were busy being in a romantic relationship while crossing the Three Lifetimes Tribulation?”

Shangguan Huanling nodded repeatedly, looking quite proud.

“What else could I do?”

“Don’t you have any regrets?” Yue Hongling asked.

Shangguan Huanling thought for a moment.

“Well, I do have some regrets, like not being able to protect my father and mother, and also messing up my Emotion Dao cultivation. But I’ve regained the Emotion Dao now, and it’s even stronger than before.”

“As for my father and mother, as long as I start dating my brother Lu Ye early enough, they definitely won’t die.”

“The reason they died is that I didn’t start dating my brother Lu Ye soon enough.”

After this speech, both Bai Qiulan and Yue Hongling fell silent.

At this moment, Yue Hongling was in a very special state. You could call her Yue Hongling, and she indeed was Yue Hongling.

The soul belonged to Yue Hongling, but her subconscious was Bai Qiulan’s. Bai Qiulan could forcibly control Yue Hongling or impose a more subtle influence.

She could even fabricate a large number of memories that didn’t belong to Yue Hongling, distorting Yue Hongling’s recollections.

One could only say that the Nine Li Soul Stealing Technique was incredibly terrifying.

“What kind of Three Lifetimes Tribulation did you two cross?” Shangguan Huanling asked curiously.

She didn’t notice that something was off with the two.

She completely forgot about hearing Yue Hongling’s scream earlier.

She was just happy to chat with familiar people after not talking to anyone for a while.

“It was pretty similar to our last life, not much to talk about,” Bai Qiulan smiled and said.

“By the way, have you seen Chu Ling? I sent her a message through the Transmitting Stone, but she hasn’t replied,” Shangguan Huanling asked.

Chu Ling was already dead.

Bai Qiulan looked at the innocent Shangguan Huanling and still didn’t say anything directly.

“Maybe she’s in some secret realm and can’t receive your message,” Bai Qiulan said.

“That’s possible. So when are you two planning to ascend?” Shangguan Huanling asked.

“Not sure yet. What about you?”

“I’m not too clear either, but it will take some time.”

“Alright, I’ve seen you again, and my mood has improved a lot. I’ll be on my way now! Let’s meet again later!”

With a smile on her face, Shangguan Huanling waved goodbye to Bai Qiulan and Yue Hongling.

“Take care of yourself! Stay sharp, so you don’t get deceived,” Bai Qiulan advised earnestly.

“Got it, Big Sister Bai, you’re really a good person,” Shangguan Huanling cheerfully replied.

Bai Qiulan’s eyes were filled with warmth.

“Then I’m leaving!”

“Wait a second!”

Yue Hongling suddenly spoke up.

As Shangguan Huanling was about to fly away, she stopped at the sound.

“Huanling, you’re too naive. I really can’t rest easy with you on your own. Why not join us in our cultivation? That way, Master and I can protect you, what do you think?” Yue Hongling smiled as she said.

Shangguan Huanling thought about it.

“Red Ling, you don’t need to worry. I need to look for resources. My cultivation technique can’t be improved without the right resources. Thanks for the kind offer, though.”

Hearing this, Yue Hongling sighed.

“Fine, just be careful. If you run into any danger, remember to come find us. Master and I are your strongest backup.”

Shangguan Huanling was quite pleased.

“Mm-mm-mm, I’ll remember that. You guys are really nice!”

Shangguan Huanling took off.

With a heart full of joy, she soared into the sky.

The two watched her leave, both breaking into smiles.

“Let’s continue!”

Bai Qiulan looked at Yue Hongling and said.

Yue Hongling nodded calmly and stepped back behind Bai Qiulan again.

Just as they were about to proceed, a buzzing sound suddenly rang out, and Bai Qiulan’s Transmitting Stone began to vibrate.

Bai Qiulan frowned.

Wondering why so many people were calling for her?

She picked up the Transmitting Stone.

“Qiulan! Qiulan! Where are you? Your sister has ascended, and I’m here to play with you!”

A familiar voice echoed from the Transmitting Stone.

Is that… Sun Ruowei?

How did she ascend so quickly?

Bai Qiulan was taken aback. Their fast cultivation was due to the rebirth, powerful techniques, innate talent, and knowledge of many opportunities.

But Sun Ruowei wasn’t reborn.

In the last life, Sun Ruowei had died very early.

In this life, Lu Ye had gone crazy, yet she had survived. Even if she had, there was no way her speed should be so outrageous.

“Qiulan! Qiulan! Hurry up and respond! I know you heard me. It’s been so long since we met; I’m about to die missing you.”

Bai Qiulan sighed gently.

She felt torn.

If she didn’t see Sun Ruowei, it really felt like she had lost everyone.

But if she did see her, she feared Sun Ruowei might discover other problems.

Bai Qiulan glanced at Yue Hongling.

“Can I meet her?”

Yue Hongling nodded. “Don’t worry; I won’t reveal any flaws.”

Only then did Bai Qiulan respond.

Her voice was gentle, “I’m at Emerald Peak. Don’t come looking for me. Tell me where you are, and I’ll come find you.”

“Okay, okay! Hurry up! I just left the Ascension Pool and am right next to it! Hehe, just ascended, and I can’t wait to find you! Only you are my best partner!”

Bai Qiulan’s heart warmed.

“Alright, stay safe. I’ll come find you!”

Both Bai Qiulan and Yue Hongling shot into the air, heading towards the Ascension Pool.

Now, with their strength after the chaos caused by Lu Ye, they should have no problem roaming the Third Heaven.

“Over here!”

As soon as they arrived at the Ascension Pool, Sun Ruowei eagerly rushed over.
