A Reclusive Expert Arrives? Ning Fengzhi and Gu Rong's Shock! Searching for the Ice Fire Yin Yang Well

"But your Father said there's a place in Sunset Forest called the Ice Fire Yin Yang Well?"

"Why haven't I ever seen it mentioned in any of the books I've read?"

Chen Qingling held her head high. "Hmph, hmph, hmph. If everything were written in books, why would I travel across the continent?"

"No matter how much books tell you, it'll never compare to seeing it for yourself."

"The more you travel and the more you see, the more you'll naturally understand."

Ning Rongrong's lips parted slightly. She had never expected that after just one trip outside, Chen Qingling would come back able to say such profound things.

She took a deep breath and nodded slightly. "Qingling, you're right. Tomorrow, I'm going with you too! I want to broaden my horizons!"

"I want to see what kind of place the Ice Fire Yin Yang Well really is."

Council Hall.

Chen Xin returned on his sword, where Ning Fengzhi and Gu Rong greeted him.

"Bony bastard, how did it go? What exactly happened? Why didn't you take down that Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast? Don't tell me you held back because of Qingling?"

Ning Fengzhi said, "Chen Xin, take your time."

"Qingling... knows she's a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast, yet she still chose to become friends with her."

"What?!"

"Become friends with a Soul Beast?"

"Wouldn't that make them the laughingstock of the Soul Master World? What utter nonsense?"

Chen Xin shook his head. "As long as we don't reveal it, who would know?"

Gu Rong's eyes widened as he stared in disbelief at his old friend. He had never imagined that Chen Xin would favor her to such an extent.

"You used to want to kill Soul Beasts the moment you saw them. Bony bastard, you've changed so much."

After giving it some thought, Ning Fengzhi said, "We can hide it for a while, but not forever!"

"So Qingling's Father came up with a solution for her."

The moment those words were spoken, Gu Rong and Ning Fengzhi's expressions changed drastically.

"Her Father came? Where is he?"

"Bony bastard, are you sure you aren't lying? Why didn't I sense anyone entering the sect?"

No matter how powerful Qingling's Father was, he couldn't possibly evade the senses of a Titled Douluo, could he?

Chen Xin shook his head again. "Her Father didn't come. He told her through an incredible form of Mind Communication."

"What?!"

At that moment, Gu Rong and Ning Fengzhi felt as though they were riding a roller coaster, their emotions rising and falling wildly.

It took them quite a while before they accepted reality.

"And then?"

"Tomorrow, I need to take Qingling and Xiao Wu to Sunset Forest to search for the Ice Fire Yin Yang Well her Father mentioned."

"If the Ice Fire Yin Yang Well really exists, we should be able to find the Immortal Herb Lovesick Heartbreak Red, which can conceal a Soul Beast's aura."

Gu Rong fell silent for a long while. "Tomorrow? I'm going too!"

"This is too important. I can't let you go alone, bony bastard. I won't be at ease."

Chen Xin glanced at Gu Rong, who clearly had ulterior motives. His intentions were practically written all over his face—he simply wanted to help Qingling.

After all, Chen Xin had taught Qingling the basics of Soul Master knowledge, while Gu Rong had rarely done anything substantial for her. He felt rather guilty about it.

Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect.

The three girls walked hand in hand beneath the setting sun, forming a beautiful sight.

"What do you think, Xiao Wu? Is my Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect big? Isn't it magnificent?"

Xiao Wu nodded repeatedly. "It's the biggest and most magnificent place I've ever seen."

When she had first entered the human world, she had thought Notting City was spectacular.

But now that she saw this, Notting City was utterly incomparable to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect. It was like comparing a small witch to a great wizard.

Looking at the darkening sky, Ning Rongrong pursed her lips. "It's getting late. Xiao Wu, I'll take you to your room so you can rest. Only then will you have the energy tomorrow to search for the Ice Fire Yin Yang Well."

Xiao Wu immediately shook her head. "No, I want to stay with Qingling."

"At Notting Academy, we shared the same Dormitory and even slept in the same bed!"

"Fine, fine, fine." Ning Rongrong felt a pang of jealousy and envy toward Xiao Wu.

How nice. She could share a Dormitory with Chen Qingling and even sleep beside her.

"Rongrong, we're leaving. See you tomorrow."

"Mm, see you tomorrow."

At the same time, as the three of them walked through the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, they drew countless discussions from the sect's disciples.

"Look! Chen Qingling is back!"

"Holy shit! Did you see that? The Young Sect Master smiled!"

"As expected, only Qingling can keep her under control!"

"Shh, shh, shh. Can't you keep your voices down? If she hears you, you might be in for some suffering."

"Are you stupid? She isn't the Little Devil Girl anymore."

"Hiss... I always forget that."

"Thank Chen Qingling for curing the Little Devil Girl."

Back then, the Little Devil Girl had been notorious within the sect. There was no mischief she hadn't done—a complete little brat.

It was only after meeting Chen Qingling that she returned to normal.

Meeting a good person might heal a lifetime of pain.

"Ah, the Young Sect Master has had a hard life too. She lost her Mother from the moment she was born."

"Cough, cough, cough. Is that something you can say?"

Early the next morning.

Chen Qingling dragged Xiao Wu, who was sleeping in, out of bed. "Xiao Wu! Stop sleeping in!"

"Okay, okay, I get it." Xiao Wu climbed up with dark circles under her eyes.

"Huh? Xiao Wu, what happened to you? Why did you turn into a panda?"

Xiao Wu's mouth twitched. "I'm not a panda! I just changed environments and haven't adapted yet."

"I'm not like you. You can sleep soundly anywhere as long as there's a bed."

Chen Qingling scratched her head awkwardly. "Uh... isn't that... something I was born with?"

It was an inborn gift envied by countless people.

"Come on, I'll take you to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect's Canteen for breakfast."

"You have no idea how good the food in the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect's Canteen is!"

Chen Qingling pulled Xiao Wu along, and they quickly arrived at the Canteen, where they enjoyed a hearty breakfast.

After eating, they walked out of the Canteen and saw Chen Xin and Gu Rong arguing with Ning Rongrong.

"Rongrong, aren't you being ridiculous? Sunset Forest may be far less dangerous than Star Dou Great Forest, but every extra person means an extra share of danger."

Ning Rongrong grabbed Chen Xin and Gu Rong's hands, acting cute and pleading, "But Sword Grandpa and Bone Grandfather will be there, won't they?"

"Just let Rongrong come with you~ I promise I won't run around."

At that moment, Chen Qingling strode over. "Master, morning."

"Actually, I think it's fine for Rongrong to come along. One more person means one more pair of hands, and it'll be easier to find the Ice Fire Yin Yang Well."

"Besides, with two Titled Douluo there, what danger could Sunset Forest possibly pose? No matter how dangerous it is, it can't be more dangerous than Star Dou Great Forest."

"And most importantly, I've always had very good luck. I won't run into danger at all."

Hearing Ning Rongrong's pleas and Qingling's suggestion, the two exchanged looks and reluctantly gave in.

"Fine, fine, fine. Rongrong, you can come too. Happy now?"

Ning Rongrong burst into a smile. "I knew Sword Grandpa and Bone Grandfather treated me the best."

At the same time, she cast Chen Qingling a grateful look.

If Chen Qingling had not stepped in to help, she really might not have been allowed to go.
