Chapter Numbers Are Like Sand Sculpture Qin Yi

The fastest update to Seeking the Dao in the Mortal World!

Such a beauty, what kind of female Daoist priest does she have to be! Does she even want anyone else to live?!

Many people recall those unreliable lists of stunningly beautiful Fairy, with all sorts of versions circulating, but Minghe invariably ranks in the top three, and is number one in multiple versions. I used to think it was all just hearsay; women are all pretty much the same, how beautiful can they really be? Plus, everyone has different aesthetic standards, so it's impossible for anyone to be universally recognized as number one.

But after seeing it in person, I realized that those who ranked in the top three must be wrong, she must be number one!

Only those with higher levels of spiritual attainment, gazing at the distant imagery of the Minghe, like a starry river suspended in the sky, seem to ponder deeply. Aesthetic appreciation naturally varies from person to person, but there is something that can enhance your perception of beauty.

That's distance.

Therefore, the beauty of the Minghe feels illusory to most people, as it is intangible due to distance, and thus unparalleled in their hearts.

Some people feel envy, some feel jealousy, and some ignore it—all of these are normal feelings. But Great Joy Temple is a tragedy.

Almost all the monks' eyes bulged out, and blood vessels were visible...

Guan Hai was also extremely upset. He would rather the Celestial Pivot Divine Palace sent a decrepit old man. You have to know how devastating Minghe's beauty is to the Great Joy Temple. Just look at the two he was preparing to send out, they were practically drooling. Guan Hai felt that he didn't even need the enemy to fight; he had already lost 30% of his soul.

He's not qualified to judge others, because he himself has lost more than 30% of his soul.

"Minghe True Person..." Guan Hai called out tentatively.

Minghe sat cross-legged with her eyes slightly closed, ignoring him completely.

Guan Hai, trying to make conversation, said, "The rules for this competition still need to be reviewed by you, fellow Daoist. Should the two events be held simultaneously, or separately?"

Minghe remained silent, as if it were none of her business.

Even with Guan Hai's cultivation being a whole stage beyond hers, she still felt that Guan Hai was far ahead of her.

It's as if you're separated by a vast chasm, not even in front of you.

Guan Hai strongly suspected that she might remain silent and expressionless throughout the entire arbitration process, simply observing and reporting the results to the Celestial Pivot Divine Palace. What was the point of sending this Daoist Nun then...?

"They're here! They're here!" A stir went up among the onlookers.

Guan Hai turned his head and saw the four sect leaders of the Ten Thousand Dao Immortal Palace riding the clouds, with various disciples following behind them. Some of them flew up on their own during the Cloud Ascension stage, while others flew on various Flying Magical Artifact.

He soon spotted his two adversaries: Zheng Yunyi, dressed in flowing white robes, arrived on a sword; Qin Yi... sat on a handkerchief, looking like a wilted eggplant, too afraid to raise his head, seemingly unaware of what he was afraid of.

The next moment, he saw Minghe's slightly closed eyes suddenly open, her beautiful eyes fixed on the handkerchief without blinking.

Guan Hai saw Qin Yi turn around, seemingly wanting to run away. Then, a stunningly beautiful woman in front of him turned around and grabbed him, lifting him back like a quail.

That woman is... Ju Yunxiu?

Minghe's gaze became even stranger.

Like a star that was originally hanging quietly in the sky, without a trace of human presence, it suddenly starts to twinkle and is given a vivid meaning.

"Minghe True Person," Heavenly Mystery Child greeted him, "We're not late, are we?"

Minghe ignored him and instead looked at Ju Yunxiu, who was carrying Qin Yi.

People assumed she simply wanted to speak with a woman and didn't find it offensive. Heavenly Mystery Child then stepped aside to let Ju Yunxiu speak. Ju Yunxiu put Qin Yi down and stepped forward, offering a Daoist salute. "Minghe True Person. Ju Yunxiu the Ten Thousand Dao Immortal Palace greets you."

Minghe finally stood up from her cross-legged position, staring straight at Ju Yunxiu with her beautiful eyes for a long time before bowing and saying, "Sect Leader Ju, you are too kind. Minghe is courteous."

A murmur rippled through the crowd, all marveling at her beauty. They had assumed Minghe was the most beautiful woman in the Ju Yunxiu, but Ju Yunxiu's appearance seemed to diminish Minghe's brilliance. It was as if spring orchids and autumn chrysanthemums each had their own unique charm. Many looked left and right, suddenly unsure how to judge who was more beautiful...

It was a completely different kind of beauty, like the Snow Lotus on the Heavenly Mountain and the orchid in the secluded valley.

Minghe looked Ju Yunxiu up and down. She was beautiful, but did she not have any temper when she was being held up like this?

Why are you so arrogant towards me? You're destined to get what you want someday? Why are you acting like a quail in front of others?

Actually, Qin Yi's unease wasn't because of Ju Yunxiu, but precisely because seeing Minghe in this situation made him incredibly nervous. While others were admiring the beautiful sight of the two stunning Fairy facing each other, he was the only one who felt like he was sitting on pins and needles, unable to find the right posture.

But now that he was standing right in front of her, there was no point in backing down. Qin Yi straightened up and quietly looked at Minghe, Minghe was also looking at him.

As their eyes met, something fleetingly crossed their minds.

It's about helping each other side by side, embracing each other, whispering sweet nothings, a kiss that's like a declaration of possession, and the words, "One day, I will knock on the gates of heaven and embrace the stars."

And Minghe told herself that it would be best if they never met again.

Half a year has passed in the blink of an eye.

However, having refined her Natal Magic Treasure and reached the peak of the mid-stage of the Cloud Ascension realm, Minghe herself needed to go out and gain experience. Coincidentally, this matter arose, so her sect simply sent her here. Minghe knew that one of the participants in this battle was named "Qin Yi." She knew it was the same Qin Yi, not just someone with the same name, because Qin Yi's entry into the Ten Thousand Dao Immortal Palace was entirely due to her recommendation.

Others might not know who Qin Yi is, but how could she not know?

She had come to see him... Minghe hadn't wanted to come, and shouldn't have seen him. But in the end, she didn't utter a single word of refusal, and arrived earlier than anyone else.

The eye contact was fleeting, appearing to onlookers as nothing more than an ordinary meeting. Ju Yunxiu pulled Qin Yi aside and introduced him, "This is my junior brother, Qin Yi, one of the participants in this battle."

Buddhist Light had shattered, and we had returned to reality.

Minghe saw Qin Yi bowing respectfully. "Qin Yi greets Minghe... True Person."

Minghe's eyes regained their calm, and she slightly raised her head, feigning a haughty look as she said, "Your junior brother seems very obedient."

Ju Yunxiu laughed and said, "I'm usually quite mischievous, but I get shy when there are more people around."

Minghe looked at the sky. "Your junior brother's handkerchief has a hint of the Myriad Images of the Universe? I was once ambushed by a demoness from the Myriad Phenomena Asura Sect, so I'm a bit sensitive about it."

Ju Yunxiu turned and glared at Qin Yi could only say, "These are spoils of war..."

Looking at the sky through the Minghe, Ju Yunxiu.

Spoils of war... Who are you kidding? Handkerchiefs are personal items, if you can call this a spoils of war, why not a bellyband?

Zheng Yunyi, standing to the side with his hands in his pockets, said, "Sigh, Junior Brother Qin, I told you long ago not to associate too closely with that vixen. Seeing you back in the Great Qian Dynasty..."

Before he could finish speaking, Minghe interrupted him with a cold gaze, asking, "What business is it of yours, you inconsiderate people?"

Zheng Yunyi: "..."

We're all participants in this war, so why is he so obedient and has a handkerchief, while I'm just some nobody?

Heavenly Mystery Child sighed, "He is also one of our sect's participants, named Zheng..."

"Oh." Minghe turned and returned to her seat. "Everyone's here. Let's start the fight."

Heavenly Mystery Child: "..."

Ju Yunxiu turned and stared at Qin Yi with an extremely dangerous look in her eyes.

Others might not have noticed, only thinking that Minghe was a bit arrogant and didn't give people face. But for Ju Yunxiu, it was all too obvious. Minghe seemed to be talking to her every word, but in reality, every word was a direct conversation with Qin Yi. Her words were full of hidden meanings, and her eyes were as strange as ripples in a pond.

It would be a miracle if this brat had nothing to do with this Daoist Daoist Nun! I even told him to keep his eyes off her before, but this is probably not a matter of whether he looks at her or not. Who knows, he might even have this Daoist Nun's handkerchief in his ring... Otherwise, why would he be paying so much attention to her?

I'm afraid they've seen every inch of her body!

Ju Yunxiu felt that if this weren't a public place, and if they had met in private, the Daoist Nun might have gotten into a fight with her junior brother, and how they would have fought was hard to say...

Minghe, seated on a cloud, slowly announced, "This place is spacious enough; let the two battles proceed simultaneously. Both sides, please enter the arena."

The atmosphere in the room instantly changed from a polite greeting to a sharp Killing Intent.

Everyone knew that this was not a martial arts competition, but a life-or-death battle, one in which people would die.

Moreover, one of them was a weaker opponent against a stronger one...

The two monks were already standing separately in the field. One of them bowed to Qin Yi and said, "I am a disciple of Da Huan Xi Temple. Please give me your guidance, Junior Brother Qin."

People quickly made a judgment: it was the third level of the cloud-climbing technique, and it was about to break through to the fourth level!

That Qin Yi... he only seems to be at the fourth or fifth level of the Qin Xin realm? How dare he come?

Ju Yunxiu was giving instructions from the sidelines, seemingly offering on-the-spot guidance? But was it too late?

He's going to die... Poor guy, so young.

No one knew that Ju Yunxiu, grabbing Qin Yi's ear, was saying, "Hurry up and kick this monk to death, then tell me what happened to that Daoist Nun! Don't try to stall for time with a fight; you can only drag it out so long, you'll see!"

Qing Cha sat beside her, hugging her knees and sighing. "A life-or-death battle between you two... Is this really my senior Senior Sister?"
