News from the General's Mansion

The group looked around, but it was clear that Yue Qianchou had escaped. A Core Formation stage disciple had fled from the clutches of late Tribulation Transcendence stage Transcending cultivator, disappearing without a trace, vanishing without a trace. Qing Nu, floating in the air, looked extremely displeased; it wouldn't be an exaggeration to call it a disgrace.

Has Yue Qianchou really left Fu Xian Island like that? Ou Sihai groaned inwardly in pain. He truly had high hopes for Yue Qianchou, especially after everything that had happened. It made him sigh deeply. Such talent at such a young age—given time, he would have been a future hero! But it was all impossible now. Yue Qianchou was really gone...

As the group flew closer to Qing Nu, Ou Sihai asked unnecessarily, "Senior, Yue Qianchou run away?"

Qing Nu surveyed his surroundings with an uncertain expression. The sky was a vast expanse of blue with a few floating clouds, and below lay the Yue Qianchou's cultivation level possibly go? Could it be...? He stared at the mist-shrouded Fu Xian Island below.

Ou Sihai understood his meaning and said in astonishment, "Senior, do you suspect that he returned to Fu Xian Island? That's impossible. Just as we came out, the island's protective formation sealed Fu Xian Island again. He can't go back. Perhaps... Senior could go back to Fu Xian Island and look for him again!"

Qing Nu did have that idea, but even if Yue Qianchou hid back, what right did he have to search Fuxian Island? After a moment's thought, he shook his head and said, "No need. There's plenty of time. I don't believe this kid will never show his face in the Cultivation World. Please convey my farewell to Fu Xian Island Feng. I won't go any further." With that, he flew away without looking back and disappeared into the distance in the blink of an eye.

The group watched him leave, exchanged glances, shook their heads and smiled wryly, then looked Yue Qianchou's outburst made the whole place seem strange. "Let's go back!" Ou Sihai sighed, and the group swooped down towards Fu Xian Island.

Back at the Penglai Pavilion, Ou Sihai recounted the events that had just transpired to Feng Xiangtian and the others in detail. Everyone was stunned and astonished. How could Qing Nu, Qing Nu at the late Tribulation Transcendence stage, have failed to capture Yue Qianchou and allowed him to escape without a trace? Guan Wei Wu and Fei Denan exchanged glances and secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

In the main hall of Myriad Fragrance Garden, Grandma Ma Jiu, leaning on a cane and supported by Lan Bingxue, stood in the center, gazing at Furong, who sat motionless in a chair. Tears silently streamed down Furong's beautiful face; she was clearly restrained. Lan Bingxue looked at the woman's face, which was even more beautiful than her own, her expression inscrutable.

After the event, Fei Denan returned dejectedly. Upon entering the hall, he bowed to Grandma Ma Jiu and said, "Ninth Aunt."

"There was quite a commotion over Fu Xian Island just now! What happened? Did that old Qing Nu attack Yue Qianchou? What exactly happened?" Grandma Ma Jiu turned around and asked. Furong, unable to move, looked anxiously at her father.

"Yue Qianchou... sigh! That kid got a bit impulsive. The sect leader didn't initially intend to do anything to him, just to put on a show in front of Qing Nu. Who knew that when his master didn't say a word in his defense, he actually severed ties with Guan Wei Wu in front of everyone, ending their master-disciple relationship. The sect leader, in a fit of anger, publicly expelled him from Fu Xian Island. Ironically, Qing Nu chased Yue Qianchou all the way outside Fu Xian Island, but even with Qing Nu's late Tribulation Transcendence stage cultivation, he couldn't catch Yue Qianchou, and that kid got away. Ha! I really don't know how that kid has such abilities; it's truly unbelievable!" Fei Denan shook his head and smiled bitterly.

"That old codger Qing Nu didn't catch Yue Qianchou?" Grandma Ma Jiu was stunned, and Lan Bingxue beside her also looked incredulous.

Upon hearing this, Furong, whose eyes were still blurry with tears, immediately felt relieved. Her big eyes blinked. Others might not know, but she did know that Yue Qianchou had the ability to appear and disappear unpredictably, so it was normal that others couldn't catch him.

"He did escape, but from now on he is no longer a disciple of Fu Xian Island. Without the protection of Fu Xian Island, the Daluo Sect and Qingguang Sect will definitely not let him go. Alas! Ninth Aunt, why don't you step forward and persuade the sect leader? I believe that if you had stepped forward, this matter would not have escalated to this point," Fei Denan asked.

"I'm old and a bit senile, and I never interfere with any decisions made by the head of Fu Xian Island," Grandma Ma Jiu said, then turned to Furong and asked, "I heard that Yue Qianchou cured your girl's face?"

"Yes!" Fei Denan nodded and said, "I won't hide it from you, old man. That kid Yue Qianchou went to the Demon Ghost Domain and got a lot of spiritual herbs. He secretly kept them instead of handing them over. Instead, he secretly made a batch of 'Ruyi Pill' for Rong'er, and that's how he healed Rong'er's face."

"The Ruyi Pill?" Even Grandma Ma Jiu couldn't help but exclaim in surprise, "Is that the legendary 'Ruyi Pill' that can keep you young forever, detoxify and beautify your skin, and make you immune to all poisons?"

"According to Yue Qianchou, that should be true. You didn't see what the 'Ruyi Pill' looked like back then. Not only did it have a halo, but it also emitted a seven-colored glow. It was the first time in my life that I had ever seen such a miraculous pill. It was truly an eye-opener!" Fei Denan exclaimed.

Upon hearing this, Lan Bingxue looked at Furong, her face full of envy. What woman doesn't want to stay young forever?

"Your girl is so lucky! Ah! If I had encountered such a miraculous pill back then, I wouldn't have ended up with the stigma of 'Grandma Ma Jiu'. Lan, let's go! Let's not look anymore, lest we arouse envy. Let's go! Let's go!" Grandma Ma Jiu shook her head and sighed, and was slowly helped out by Lan Bingxue.

So, when Yue Qianchou was being chased by Qing Nu, just as he was about to disappear into the clouds, he looked back and was terrified. Qing Nu had teleported right in front of him! As soon as he entered the clouds, he immediately flashed back to Utopia without a word. He didn't dare utter another sound; a cultivator at the late Tribulation Transcendence stage was simply too terrifying for him. The reason he disappeared into the clouds was to avoid revealing his secret of being able to vanish into thin air, but little did he know he would almost get himself killed.

Only after arriving at Bai Suzhen's room in the Misty Palace did he feel safe, letting out a sigh of relief and wiping the cold sweat from his brow. Bai Suzhen suddenly turned around, saw his expression, and walked a few steps to him, asking with concern, "What's wrong?"

"Damn it! Today was the worst day ever. I was just expelled from the sect by Fu Xian Island, and now I'm being chased by late Tribulation Transcendence stage expert from the Qingguang Sect. It was so close, so very close. If they had killed me before I could even react, I might never have made it back. It scared me to death!" Yue Qianchou said with a relaxed expression after the fright.

"You were expelled from the sect by Fu Xian Island? Why are the experts from the Qingguang Sect hunting you down? Is it because you helped me investigate those four treasures?" Bai Suzhen grabbed his arm. Especially seeing the long hem of his robe, leaving only his buttocks exposed and his legs completely exposed in the front, she wondered what kind of danger he had encountered.

Yue Qianchou gently pressed her hand down and said with a smile, "Sister, don't overthink it. It's not your fault. I brought this trouble upon myself."

Bai Suzhen didn't think so. She only thought he was comforting her. She bit her lip and said, "I can take my time with my affairs. You must be careful outside." In her heart, nothing was more important than Yue Qianchou's safety.

Yue Qianchou shook his head and smiled bitterly, "Now I'm afraid it's too late to hurry up. I believe it won't be long before the entire Cultivation World knows that I have been expelled from the sect by Fu Xian Island. At that time, I'm afraid that the Daluo Sect and Qingguang Sect will cast a wide net to find me. At least for the time being, it will be inconvenient for me to show my face in public."

"Then you shouldn't go out for a while." Bai Suzhen gently raised her stunningly beautiful face, looking at him with concern. Yue Qianchou was a little stunned, feeling an urge to hug and kiss her. Just as he was lost in thought, his Divine Sense suddenly fluctuated. Someone was looking for him. Yue Qianchou exclaimed, "Huh? It's a message from the Marquis General's Mansion. Could it be that the mission I gave Xiaotian and the others is making progress? Sister, I have something to do, I'll go out for a bit."

As soon as he finished speaking, he ripped off his long robe, grabbed a new one, and disappeared. Bai Suzhen bent down, picked up the tattered clothes from the ground, and held them in her hand, her pretty face filled with unconcealed worry...
