Chapter 64 - OMG! Great Senior Disciple Came Back with His Wife and Son! (3)

Luo Jianqing was possessed until he heard Mo Qiu’s shout.

Now, there’s no need to say anything. Luo Jianqing drew out his Floating Frost Sword, looking at the pill with killing intent ignited in his eyes, and said, “sir, I respect you for you are –– the one and only Ninth-grade Godlike Pill, and by that reason I didn’t erase your consciousness immediately. However, that doesn’t mean you can make fool of me! Treasure would always belong to someone who’s capable to own it. Don’t blame me for the things I’m going to do now!”

Finished his sentence, Luo Jianqing unsheathed his sword, about to erase the pill’s consciousness while it wasn’t fully recovered.

Surprisingly, the pill-transformed scholar mumbled, “you are not him. You are not whom I am waiting for.”

Holding the sword in his right hand, Luo Jianqing sneered, “well, you might never will see him again.”

Ignoring the satire in Luo Jianqing’s voice, the pill suddenly told Luo Jianqing, “but you have his flower.”

Luo Jianqing ceased his movement, “his flower?”

The pill nodded. He stretched out his right hand, and suddenly a tiny delicate lotus emerged from his palm. It was an elegant flower, blooming quietly. The pill said, “This is the flower I was talking about.”

Luo Jianqing was shocked, “are you saying……the Nine-Petaled Lotus Record?!” So many guesses flashed across his mind, Luo Jianqing took his time trying to grasp an answer. “The man you are waiting for is related to Nine-Petaled Lotus Record?”

The Godlike Pill smiled as if he didn’t care it anymore. He shook his head, “I forget who he is, but he is my master. I waited here for tens of thousands of years. He asked me to play Zither for him when he left, and to expect his triumphant return. That day, however, he didn’t come back. The firmament changed, and I’ve never seen him again.”

Luo Jianqing frowned in confusion, “his triumph? Senoir, what are you talking about……?”

The pill said, “my name is Qing Jun. The day I formed from the furnace, the sky was dyed in a different color, Qing cloud filled the firmament, and by that reason my master named me ‘Qing Jun’. It was a long time ago, though, I can hardly recall anything.”

“What do you mean the firmament changed…….”

Qing Jun said in a freezing voice, “that’s not what you creatures should concern.”

Luo Jianqing swallowed the words he was about to say, but Mo Qiu sneered at it. “Are you kidding me? There’s something I have no right to concern?”

Qing Jun peeked at Mo Qiu, “when you recovered to your peak and break what’s been confining you for thousands of years, maybe you could concern about it by then.”

The haughtiness disappeared, Mo Qiu stayed silent.

Luo Jianqing looked at Mo Qiu and Qing Jun. He suspected that Qing Jun had discovered Mo Qiu’s secret which might give an explanation for Mo Qiu’s astonishingly fast cultivation speed. He didn’t ask anything, though, for this was Mo Qiu’s secret. If Mo Qiu had no intention to tell him, he won’t force him to.

However, there was something he couldn’t ignore. He looked to the graceful scholar and said, “Senior, the flower you mentioned is a unique possession of my cultivation sect, owned only by my Master and I. If possible, I don’t want to erase your consciousness. A brilliant Pill Master once told me that the most invaluable component of a Ninth-grade Godlike Pill is the Pill Soul formed when the pill comes out of the furnace. This pill can only be called the Godlike Pill when you are still present.”

Heard Luo Jianqing mentioned the lotus, Qing Jun’s eyes immediately kindled with hope. His reaction didn’t escape Luo Jianqing’s observation. Qing Jun stayed silent for a long time, then asked, “then……what do you want from me?”

“I want you……to heal someone.”

“That’s what I’m supposed to do from the beginning. My master created me to save somebody’s life, but, unfortunately, that person died at nowhere before I was formed. Nobody could even find his corpse. Nowadays, the person who reached the highest cultivation period is only an Early-stage Deity Transformation cultivator. I was made to save a dying Late-stage Deity Transformation cultivator. Given that, there’s nobody I cannot heal now.”

Luo Jianqing was exultant. “Thank you!”

“There’s no need to. I just want you…… to take me to your sect.”

Luo Jianqing frowned as if he was considering that proposal, but actually he was excited already. With the Pill Soul still present, the Godlike Pill could really do what it was capable of, plus the Pill Soul agreed to save Xuan Lingzi. It solved a lot of problems when the pill asked to come with him.

They quickly came out a schedule for the next few days, but Mo Qiu was irritated. Before Luo Jianqing took the Pill Soul back to Tai Hua Mountain, he stood on Luo Jianqing’s way and stretched his arms to block him, “I’m going to Tai Hua Mountain with you as well.”

Luo Jianqing looked at him, speechless.

“Mo Qiu, shouldn’t you go back to the Mo Family?”

“I am going to Tai Hua Mountain. I heard that several days later Tai Hua Mountain will hold the septennial sects competition. I will be there for you. Nobody can harm you with my presence. You will be the winner.”

“……I will be the winner no matter you’re present or not. I am the only disciple who reached the Nascent Soul Period.”

Mo Qiu was shocked, “you are the only one? What happened to Tai Hua Mountain?”

“Well, you can’t count the numbers like that. Tai Hua Mountain’s disciples are way younger than those of the other sects. You are a genius, do not put your standard on our sect, okay? Look at our generation. I once thought Yan Su who almost fulfilled the Early-stage of the Nascent Soul Period is the strongest of us. Who knows you, a guy coming out from nowhere, snatched the title this quick.”

Delighted, Mo Qiu accepted the compliments but didn’t give up his plan going to Tai Hua Mountain. He coaxed and pestered Luo Jianqing for three days. At the moment Luo Jianqing was about to take Qing Jun out of Billion Beasts Mountain, Mo Qiu started to confront Luo Jianqing, “Luo Jianqing, I saved you, TWICE! Why can’t you just say yes to this little favor?!”

Luo Jianqing sighed, “Mo Qiu, it wasn’t me but……you are a Fiend Cultivator. Don’t step out of Billion Beasts Mountain. A Fiend Cultivator beyond Nascent Soul Period can’t hide himself. Cultivator with higher cultivation than you can easily spot you.”

Hearing this, somehow, Mo Qiu asked Luo Jianqing in a joyful voice, “You refused my request because of this?”

Luo Jianqing nodded.

Mo Qiu smiled, “easy, as long as I don’t expose myself, nobody can find out I am a Fiend Cultivator, not even your Master Xuan Lingzi.”

Luo Jianqing was doubtful, “is it true?”

“Of course.”

Qing Jun nodded as well, and said in a mild voice, “what he said is true.”

So they left the Billion Beasts Mountain and came back to Tai Hua Mountain.

That day, the sky was clear and the mountain magnificent as it always was. Two disciples who were responsible for guarding the gate was chatting. Suddenly, they saw three lights flew from the edge of the firmament and landed in front of the gate.

The two disciples looked at the three guys, eyes widened, astonished. They turned their back and yelled towards the sect with shock in their voice, “Breaking news! The Great Senior Disciple is back with his wife and son!!!”

Luo Jianqing who was about to speak, “……”

Mo Qiu who was wearing in scarlet, “……”

Qing Jun who transformed into a kid because of the injury, “……”
