Easy to Come, Hard to Leave
Under the cover of night, the Misty Palace stood atop the mountain, echoing the brilliant stars in the sky, solitary, serene, and enchanting. Having tasted its sweetness, Yue Qianchou became entangled with Qu Ping'er, and the two enjoyed another passionate night together. Afterwards Yue Qianchou took her to the rooftop of the Misty Palace, where they romantically counted the stars. "But I'm leaving tomorrow! Perhaps I won't be back for several days. My new love is about to face a brief separation; I can't resist seizing the moment."
Qu Ping'er spent a day in Utopia and realized that Yue Qianchou was the true master here. In that sense, she could also be considered the mistress of the place, a bittersweet feeling mixed with post-virginity shyness. However, when she saw Bai Suzhen, Qu Ping'er could hardly believe that such a beautiful woman existed in the world. Bai Suzhen wore no adornments, only simple, white clothes, a silk ribbon gently holding her hair back. She walked gracefully and calmly to Qu Ping'er, softly smiling, "You are Qu Ping'er? We met at the Qingguang Sect."
Bai Suzhen's appearance, demeanor, and temperament all made Qu Ping'er feel inferior, and for a moment she didn't know how to answer. Reflecting on Bai Suzhen's words, she suddenly remembered the white fox she had seen in the forbidden area of the Qingguang Sect years ago—it was her! Compared to before, Bai Suzhen's face no longer held the perpetual resentment; now it wore a faint, calm, and contented smile. She was more radiant and dazzling than before, almost unrecognizable at first glance. But why was she here?
Qu Ping'er, who had subconsciously accepted herself as the mistress of this place, realized something after a day: who was the true mistress? It was Bai Suzhen, the woman whom even the male master of the house treated with utmost deference, bowing and scraping as she called "Sister." Everyone in Utopia seemed to recognize her as their sole mistress; if she said one, no one dared to disagree. Although this woman treated her very well, she couldn't help feeling a little jealous!
"Qianchou, when are you bringing my master? Will we be going out this time?"
On the roof of the Misty Palace, nestled in Yue Qianchou's arms on a large recliner, Qu Ping'er asked a question. He frowned subconsciously and said, "Ping'er, you have to believe me. You have to give me time. You need to understand that this isn't something that can be done just like that." He had lost count of how many times Qu Ping'er had asked him this question.
Sensing the slight displeasure in his tone, Qu Ping'er climbed onto his chest, looked at him, and asked, "Did I upset you?"
"Don't think nonsense, it's nothing. I'm thinking about how to rescue your master." Yue Qianchou hugged the plump and elastic body that was climbing on him, stroking it all over, his gaze lingering on the boundless starry sky.
"Oh no!" Yue Qianchou cried out, abruptly pushing Qu Ping'er off him and standing up. His Divine Sense fluctuated, and after a brief investigation, he discovered that the porcelain vase left for the family had been opened. How could he not be alarmed? That was something he had instructed his father to open only when encountering trouble he couldn't handle.
Using the last drop of blood remaining in the porcelain bottle, Yue Qianchou expanded his Divine Sense to investigate. Besides his parents and younger brother, he discovered another person in the study of the Yue Mansion family mansion – none other than Liu Changqing, the sect leader of the Qingguang Sect. Yue Qianchou roared, "Liu Changqing, are you courting death?!"
He then channeled his True Essence and shouted down the mountain, "Yun Chang, gather all the troops for me!" His voice boomed and spread, breaking the tranquility of the night, sounding unusually agitated and restless.
Liu Changqing, who was in the study of the Yue Mansion, had no idea that he had crossed Yue Qianchou's bottom line.
"Qianchou, what's wrong?" Qu Ping'er got up and pulled him aside to ask.
Yue Qianchou waved his hand and shouted, "Get out of my way!" Qu Ping'er fell back onto the recliner, and he vanished from the rooftop, appearing directly in Bai Suzhen's room. Bai Suzhen was staring out the window in astonishment. She had just heard Yue Qianchou's agitated voice and didn't know what was happening. Before she could react, Yue Qianchou grabbed her hand and said urgently, "Sister, my family is in danger!"
Without another word, he and she disappeared from the room together. Although Guan Yu's troops were already assembling urgently, he was still afraid that it would be too late. If he went alone, he would definitely not be able to defeat Liu Changqing with his current cultivation level, so he had no choice but to take Bai Suzhen, who late Tribulation Transcendence stage, with him first.
Inside the study of the Yue Mansion, just as Liu Changqing finished speaking with murderous intent, a cold voice appeared out of nowhere and said, "Such arrogance! What makes you think you can just kill me whenever you want? Get past me first."
Yue Qianchou and Bai Suzhen suddenly appeared in the study. The former stared at Liu Changqing, sneering incessantly. He was determined to get revenge on him today, even if it meant death. Who told him to touch something he shouldn't have? Liu Changqing was stunned. Where did they come from?
When Xiao Yue Wuchou saw that it was his elder brother, his face was full of joy and all his previous fear disappeared. He immediately ran to Liu Changqing and complained, "Brother, he said he would kill our parents and me to be buried with his grandson."
"He's talking nonsense, ignore him!" Yue Qianchou pushed his younger brother behind him. He was relieved and introduced his parents and younger brother to Bai Suzhen.
Xiao Yue Wuchou poked his head out again, stared at Bai Suzhen, and nodded, saying, "Sister is so beautiful!" Bai Suzhen smiled at him and then bowed slightly to Yue Changgui and Xue Erniang.
The couple had already felt much relieved to see their son arrive, but upon seeing such a beautiful young woman, especially one brought by their son, they immediately forgot their earlier worries. Their gazes swept back and forth between their son and the beautiful woman, their expressions quite meaningful.
Liu Changqing was so provoked by the sight of the happy family that he pointed his finger and shouted, "Yue Qianchou, it was you who killed Zhengguang!"
Yue Qianchou and Bai Suzhen stepped forward in perfect unison, blocking the three people behind them. Yue Qianchou chuckled and said, "You dog, I really wanted to kill that dead eunuch with my own hands, but unfortunately I couldn't. What? Want revenge? Let me tell you the truth, the person who killed your grandson is right outside. I'm afraid you don't have the ability to take revenge and will end up losing your own life instead."
"What? You didn't kill him? Then who could have?" Liu Changqing shouted in disbelief, completely ignoring the stunningly beautiful woman beside him.
"Hmph!" Yue Qianchou sneered, "You'll see if you go out and take a look if you dare." As soon as he finished speaking, footsteps came from all around, and the screams of the servants in the mansion could be heard from time to time.
Liu Changqing flicked his whisk, and a beam of white light silently blasted a large hole in the wall behind him, demonstrating his extraordinary control over his cultivation. He darted out in a flash, only to find himself surrounded by masked men in black, their numbers countless, filling the walls and rooftops. He was immediately encircled by them.
Looking at the cultivation levels of these people, the lowest was at the Core Formation stage, and many were even at the late Nascent Soul stage. Liu Changqing, who had been blinded by hatred, suddenly came to his senses and was shocked. He was only at the late Nascent Soul stage himself. How could he have been so reckless as the leader of a sect to seek revenge on his own?
Retreating back inside was impossible; five Nascent Soul in black, all at the late Nascent Soul stage, were already guarding the hole in the wall. Facing imminent death, Liu Changqing was terrified, feeling his chances of survival were slim...
