Chapter 2308 - Qiu Meng
Warrior's Promise
Qinâer, Ji Yuesong, Zhu Yan and Luo Yun flew towards Sky Pool Holy Court from Reincarnation Region.
They were headed to a place called Paramount Region in Sky Pool Holy Court, a decision that had been made beforehand.
In the air, the few people flew together and talked casually.
âQinâer, how are you doing?â
Zhu Yan was concerned about Qinâer as he observed her sullen face.
Luo Yun and Ji Yuesong immediately turned their heads towards Qinâer. She was less chatty today.
âI donât think we should go to Paramount Region. Letâs head to Spatiotemporal City instead!â Qinâer stared at the three and said.
âTo Spatiotemporal Region?â The three exclaimed in shock. They had discussed that they were going to Paramount Region already. Why did Qinâer want to go to Spatiotemporal Region?
âQinâer, didnât we agree on Paramount Region?â Ji Yuesong asked in confusion.
âThere isnât anything special about Paramount Region. Spatiotemporal Region is better, we can raise our cultivations more quickly at Spatiotemporal City!â Qinâer explained.
âQinâer, I thought you never went to places youâd been to before?â Zhu Yan asked.
He was familiar with Qinâer and Qinâer loved to explore places when she went out on journeys. She wanted to gain more experience and would never go to a place repeatedly.
âNo. I feel that Spatiotemporal City is good, there is no harm in going there!â Qinâer shrugged.
âQinâer, are you hoping to find Duan Jingtian there?â Luo Yun asked suspiciously.
âWhatâ¦? You are thinking too much⦠why would I be looking for Duan Jingtian?â Qinâerâs face instantly changed and she stuttered.
However, it was obvious that she was lying and the three others instantly spotted her lie.
In an instant, the atmosphere turned dark.
âQinâer, didnât Elder Xuantian say that Duan Jingtian would not return?â Zhu Yan reminded her with a sour face. It has been a few years but Qinâer was still thinking about Duan Jingtian!
âFather wasnât sure whether he would return or not!â Qinâer countered.
âYouâ¦!â Zhu Yanâs face was dark. Qinâer was so stubborn.
âQinâer, Duan Jingtian is a godly talent, but he is evidently not someone on our level. Why are you looking for him?â Luo Yun sighed.
She admitted that she had been dumb previously. Duan Jingtian was exceptional and she confessed that she wanted to establish a closer relationship with him.
However, Duan Jingtian was gone now, like the breeze of a wind. He had left nothing behind and he was like a passing visitor to Human Palace.
âNot on our level!â A disappointed look crossed Qinâerâs face.
With that, she sighed inwardly. She knew that Luo Yun was speaking the truth
However, she wanted to find Duan Jingtian. He hadnât even bidden farewell to her when heâd left.
âDonât think about it, letâs train at Paramount Region first!â
Ji Yuesong uttered. He had mixed feelings towards Duan Jingtian.
âAlright!â Qinâer sighed helplessly. Since the three did not agree to her suggestion, she had to go to Paramount World as planned. She decided to find another time to go to Spatiotemporal Region.
Inside the jade bottle, Su Mo sighed having overheard everything that had happened in the outside world
Qinâer was so determined to see him, but the irony was that she was carrying him with her.
âI am sorry that I couldnât say goodbye to you!â Su Mo sighed to himself. However, he was sure that he would return in the future.
Yet, Su Mo wasnât sure how long that would be. It could be a few dozen years or maybe even hundreds of years.
With that, Su Mo calculated the time he took. Five hours had passed since theyâd left Human City and he could prepare to leave soon.
All of a sudden, however, something changed.
Shoosh!
A sudden ear-piercing sound tore through the air as the four people flew.
âHm?â
The group of four turned their heads and were all surprised. A man caught up to them from behind. He was a disciple of Human Palace.
This man seemed to be about thirty years old. With a black shirt, he was short and skinny. A soft beard grew from his chin.
âQiu Meng!â
The four exclaimed together in recognition. They recognized the black-shirted young man. He was a disciple who had entered Human Palace a few hundred years ago, after the examination.
Since there werenât many disciples who had joined Human Palace from the outside world, the man was well known.
âJi Yuesong, Luo Yun, Qinâer, Zhu Yan, why are you all here?â The black-shirted man caught up to them in the blink of an eye.
âBrother Qiu Meng, we are going to Paramount Region to explore it. What about you?â Qinâer asked as the group stopped.
âParamount Region?â
The eyes of Qiu Meng brightened and he laughed, âWhat a coincidence. I am headed to Paramount Region as well. Letâs go together?â
âHaha, we are appreciative if Brother Qiu Meng is willing to join us!â Ji Yuesong laughed. Qiu Meng was no weakling as he was a low Rank 3 True Deity. Although he wasnât an exceptional talent, he was strong.
âSince you donât mind, I will go with you all!â Qiu Meng wore a warm smile on his face.
âBrother Qiu Meng, we should follow you instead as you are stronger than us!â Zhu Yan suggested in a low voice.
âHa ha, Zhu Yan you are too nice!â
Qiu Meng burst out laughing and continued, âLetâs talk as we head there!â
âMm!â The group nodded their heads and they continued on their way.
However, inside the jade bottle, Su Mo couldnât help frowning. Another person had actually joined the group.
âHow could it be so coincidental?â Su Mo was cautious and he felt something amiss.
Furthermore, the manâs cultivation rank was of a low Rank 3 True Deity. Su Mo had to be careful.
Su Mo didnât rush to head out and he decided to observe the man. After all, they were still pretty far from Sky Pool Holy Court.
In the high skies, Qinâer, Luo Yun, Ji Yuesong, Zhu Yan, as well as the black shirt man called Qiu Meng, headed towards Sky Pool Holy Court.
The group was in high spirits as they talked.
âWhat happened to Duan Jingtian of the Human Palace? I have never seen the favored one!â
âBrother Qiu Meng, donât mention Duan Jingtian!â Zhu Yan warned.
âOh? Why not?â Qiu Meng asked suspiciously. A dark look crossed his eyes.
âJust donât mention it!â Zhu Yan concluded.
Qiu Meng was suspicious and he saw that Ji Yuesong, Luo Yun and Qinâer were all silent.
However, it would be awkward for him to probe further considering Zhu Yanâs attitude.
âStrange!â Qiu Meng was suspicious. He was naturally on Tian Chenyuâs orders to investigate Su Moâs whereabouts.
In actual fact, he had already stalked the four for a while and heâd only showed himself to have no other choice.
After all, Ji Yuesong was a top talent and it would be easy for him to spot a stalker. He was also a disciple of Human Palace and there was nothing wrong with him just following the group.
Yet, Qiu Meng didnât have much hope. The probability of finding Su Mo was low.
He couldnât figure out why the group had had such an expression the moment heâd mentioned Duan Jingtian.
