"Whoosh—"

The young man and woman looked at each other across the crowd.

No matter how noisy it was around them, neither paid any attention. It was as though their eyes held no one but each other...

"It was him!"

"It was definitely him!"

Lu Xueqi's heart trembled slightly.

Her clear, cold eyes rippled like autumn water as memories of that night kept surfacing in her mind. Though she had not seen his face with her own eyes, his figure had long been deeply etched into her heart...

Now, upon seeing Ye Changfeng, Lu Xueqi immediately recognized him as the green-robed figure who had saved her that night. He...

was the future Azure Cloud Sect Leader!

And also the Husband she had never met!

No!

She should not say they had never met.

Because...

they had already met.

"Hmm?"

"You recognized me?"

Ye Changfeng raised an eyebrow slightly.

He was still somewhat surprised.

He had not expected Lu Xueqi to truly recognize him from nothing but a silhouette.

Tsk, tsk, tsk!

It seemed Naiqi thought about him every night!

Then again... Naiqi should have already taken his shape, right?

"Whoosh!"

Just then, a Heaven-Reaching Peak disciple flew low over everyone's heads. His clear voice rang throughout the area:

"Junior Brothers and Junior Sisters."

"The Sect Master True Person and all the martial uncles have been waiting in Yuqing Hall for quite some time. Please enter in an orderly manner."

As soon as these words were spoken, the scene immediately erupted into commotion.

The crowd stirred, heads surging in every direction.

The previously orderly formation was instantly scattered.

Ye Changfeng was swallowed up by the crowd, and before long, he disappeared from sight...

Lu Xueqi froze slightly.

She hurriedly looked around through the crowd, but in the end, she still could not spot Ye Changfeng.

"Senior Sister."

Lu Xueqi reached out and tugged on Wen Min's sleeve.

"Hmm?"

Wen Min turned back to look at Lu Xueqi and asked with a smile, "What is it, Xueqi?"

Lu Xueqi pursed her lips slightly.

She wanted to learn his identity through Wen Min.

But then she reconsidered.

He probably did not want to expose himself.

With that thought, Lu Xueqi hesitated for a moment.

In the end, she shook her head and said, "It's nothing."

The many Qingyun Disciples participating in the Seven Peaks Martial Arts Tournament entered Yuqing Hall.

Because the Seven Peaks Martial Arts Tournament used a lottery system.

Therefore, Everyone had to step forward and draw lots.

They would use the number they drew to determine their opponent.

Lu Xueqi stood beside Shuiyue, clutching a numbered lot in her hand. Her gaze continuously swept across Yuqing Hall until, at last...

She saw "him" once more among the crowd.

Lu Xueqi froze slightly.

She stared fixedly at Ye Changfeng, her clear, cold eyes unblinking. Instead, she looked somewhat adorably dazed, as though she were saying:

"I recognized you!!!"

Ye Changfeng seemed to sense something.

He raised his eyes slightly and immediately spotted the Cold and Aloof Girl in the distance.

Just then.

"Ye Changfeng!"

A voice called out beside him.

The lively Little Girl skipped over to Ye Changfeng, then leaned her head close to him. As a result, the two were practically pressed together.

"What number did you draw?"

Ye Changfeng withdrew his gaze.

He then handed the numbered lot in his hand to Tian Ling'er.

However, he seemed not to notice... that Lu Xueqi's expression had changed somewhat.

On the raised platform.

Lu Xueqi watched with her own eyes as Ye Changfeng and Tian Ling'er practically pressed together.

She could not help frowning slightly.

Of course, Lu Xueqi knew Tian Ling'er. The moment she saw Tian Ling'er, she understood that Ye Changfeng was a disciple of Great Bamboo Peak...

It was just that...

Ye Changfeng and Tian Ling'er seemed to have quite a good relationship.

Good enough to surprise even her...

The Cold and Aloof Girl gently bit her lip.

She silently withdrew her gaze and resumed her icy demeanor, as though she did not care in the slightest.

But, Did she truly not care?

Only she herself probably knew the answer!

On the raised platform.

The Seven Peaks' Masters exchanged glances.

Unlike the many disciples below, they were not particularly concerned about this Seven Peaks Martial Arts Tournament, because something that concerned them far more was about to happen...

"Judging by the time."

"It should be soon."

True Lord Daoxuan said something seemingly out of nowhere.

Hearing this.

The many Masters around him all understood.

They instinctively turned their gazes toward the sky outside Yuqing Hall.

Boom

At this moment.

Above the sky outside Yuqing Hall.

A violent wind suddenly rose, accompanied by flashes of lightning and peals of thunder. A terrifying heavenly phenomenon manifested, and boundless natural might swept across the entire Vast Divine Continent.

For a moment, All the Qingyun Disciples were startled.

They all turned to look at the sky outside Yuqing Hall, witnessing a resplendent, ancient Heavenly Curtain slowly unfurl.

"Heavenly Curtain?"

"The Second Heavenly Curtain's reveal has begun!"

Many Qingyun Disciples came to their senses.

By their reckoning, exactly three months had now passed.

The Second Heavenly Curtain had officially appeared before the People of the World.

Amid the crowd, Ye Changfeng raised an eyebrow slightly.

He looked curiously toward the Sky Dome, wondering what information this Heavenly Curtain would reveal...

On the high platform, the Seven Peaks' Masters' expressions tightened slightly.

They rose almost at the same time, then instantly appeared outside Yuqing Hall.

Lu Xueqi pursed her lips slightly.

Almost instinctively, she glanced at Ye Changfeng, but...

after seeing Tian Ling'er by his side, Lu Xueqi could not help lowering her gaze. She then made her way outside Yuqing Hall alone and stood beside her master.

Hmph!

I didn't want to stand with him anyway!

Not even a little!

Boom

Under the gaze of thousands, the Heavenly Curtain slowly unfurled in the air.

An ancient, magnificent aura leaked out, sweeping across all directions and weighing upon everyone's shoulders.

Whoosh!

At the same time, an image gradually emerged within the Heavenly Curtain.

'Qingyun Sect's Yuqing Hall' appeared in the image.

Two blurred figures slowly emerged from the Heavenly Curtain. One wore a dashing green robe, with a tall and imposing frame and Seven Stars hanging at his waist. Who else could he be but the Azure Cloud Sect Leader!?

The other had a graceful, slender figure.

She wore a white dress that fluttered in the wind, her beautiful hair draped over her shoulders. With her refined, otherworldly features, cool clear eyes, and ethereal temperament, she resembled a celestial maiden from Above the Nine Heavens, carrying a faint sense of distance...

It was none other than Lu Xueqi.

They embraced gently, standing outside Yuqing Hall and looking down upon the mortal world, like an enviable immortal couple...

Upon witnessing the scene within the Heavenly Curtain, at this moment, everyone turned their gaze toward Lu Xueqi.

Lu Xueqi's pretty face flushed slightly. Instinctively, she wanted to glance at Ye Changfeng, but...

just then, the immortal couple within the Heavenly Curtain began to speak.

"Xueqi."

"Hmm?"

"In a few days, the Xuanzha Sect will officially begin recruiting disciples. When the time comes, go help Ping'er hold down the fort at the sect gates. I'm afraid the remnants of the Joyous Union Sect may go looking to cause trouble for her..."
