Chapter 2258: Compete on the SStage

“What did you want to talk toabout?” When she saw Zu An close the door behind him, Yun Jianyue’s heart rate suddenly increased.

This guy isn’t thinking about that stuff, is he?

There are still people outside! That would be complete nonsense...

She had never expected that a Devil Sect Master like her, who left everyone terror-stricken at the mention of her name, would one day feel like a restless little girl.

Zu An looked at this gorgeous woman whom he had been separated from for a long time. Her long hair was still just as bright and bewitching. There was a natural hint of pride and strength in her expression. But right now, why did there seem to almost be a bit of charm and bashfulness as well?

However, he quickly focused his attention when he remembered what was more important. He said, “I found Honglei.”

Zu An’s words immediately woke up Yun Jianyue from her wandering thoughts. She exclaimed, “Huh? Where is Honglei?”

Yun Jianyue’s face heated up.

Just what kind of nonsense was I thinking just now?

Her complicated emotions were quickly replaced by concern for her disciple. She was worried that there could be bad news.

Zu An didn’t reply, and took out the pendant necklace instead. Soon after, it beca world of its own. He took Yun Jianyue's hand and led her inside, saying, “Follow me.”

Yun Jianyue’s face turned a bit red when she sensed the warmth of his hand. But in the end, she didn’t pull her hand back. However, she was suddenly a bit confused when she looked at the mystical paradise dwelling. Why did it seem a bit familiar? When they entered and she saw the lush bed of green grass, as well as the small bridge over running water, she sighed in amazement at the wonders of the dwelling.

Just then, the two heard a startled shout from a sweet and lovely voice. “Big brother Zu, did you finally cto sleep with me~”

A beautiful young lady dressed in a black dress and black leggings rushed over from a house off to the side. But when she saw Yun Jianyue, her smile immediately froze.

Yun Jianyue was stunned. She also recognized the woman as the formidable Ghost King from the secret dungeon, Dark Jing Teng! No wonder she'd thought that this dwelling was so familiar. But Dark Jing Teng's earlier words carried shocking information! Was she always this direct?

Zu An also frowned. Dark Jing Teng seemed to be rather unaware of normal customs and always said whatever she wanted to say.

But White Jing Teng really is also up to no good. She's clearly the host, and yet she always sends out her little sister at these times.

“Hm? Isn’t this that Devil Sect lass from last time?” Dark Jing Teng looked at their entwined hands and immediately frowned.

Yun Jianyue smiled. “So it was ancestor granny who has practically lived forever. I didn’t expect you to be someone who would still call Ah Zu big brother even at your age, tsk tsk.”

Dark Jing Teng’s expression immediately grew dangerous. “What did you say, you damn brat?!”

Yun Jianyue was about to fire back when Zu An quickly stopped them. “Enough, enough. This is a rare meeting, so let’s try not to fight.”

“Hmph, I’ll give big brother Zu face and not argue with you.” Dark Jing Teng ran over to Zu An and wrapped her arm around his, pulling him toward the room. “Cinside already! Big sis and I miss you a lot.”

Her clothes gradually turned white. White Jing Teng appeared and exclaimed with a mix of embarrassment and annoyance, “When did I ever say that?!”

Dark Jing Teng seemed to have realized what kind of personality her big sis had, and just decided to just ignore her. Instead, she continued to pull on Zu An’s arm to drag him toward the room. White Jing Teng was more embarrassed, and quickly withdrew from the situation.

When he felt a certain sense of fullness on his arm, Zu An only managed to collect himself again with great difficulty, saying, “There are still other people here.”

Dark Jing Teng stuck out her neck to look at Yun Jianyue. “Hm? Do you want her to join too? She is quite pretty, so she has the right to compete with me. But I fear that big sis might be too embarrassed.”

Zu An and Yun Jianyue were speechless.

Yun Jianyue quickly let go of Zu An as if she had been electrocuted and said, “Go and do whatever you want to do. Don’t involvein it.”

She had thought that she was already quite carefree as the Devil Sect Leader, but she felt as if she just wasn't this woman's match at all.

Hmph, she really knows no shame.

White Jing Teng finally couldn't take it anymore and seized control over the body again, saying, “Big brother Zu, don’t listen to little sis’ nonsense.”

Zu An couldn't help but smile and say, “Don’t worry, I understand what she’s like. I brought Honglei’s master here today to see her.”

In his mind, however, the scenaDark Jing Teng had mentioned just now suddenly appeared.

That wouldn’t be bad at all...

“Alright, then I’ll leave you two to do that. We won’t disturb you anymore.” White Jing Teng really couldn't take it anymore and returned to her room with a reddened face.

Dark Jing Teng grumbled on the way, “What are you doing? You know what this is called? Going to hell to keep up appearances!”

“Shut up!”

“No! What are you going to do about it?”

...

When she heard the sisters’ conversation, Yun Jianyue had a strange expression. After stime, she said, “Those two women really are quite interesting.”

Zu An’s face heated up. Continuing on this topic wasn’t a wise decision. He said, “Let’s go and see Honglei first.”

At first, Yun Jianyue hesitated when she heard her disciple’s name.

Why is Honglei here together with the Jing Teng sisters?

The two of them unwittingly arrived in front of a room. Yun Jianyue couldn't help but stop moving; she actually didn’t dare to continue forward. After all, it was because Qiu Honglei had seen into what the two of them were doing that she left home. Even though it had already been a long time, the problem between the two of them had never been resolved. She suddenly didn’t know how to face her disciple. It was almost like the sudden nervous feeling one could get upon returning home.

Zu An held her hand. “Don’t worry, the situation is different from what you're thinking.”

He then took her inside.

...

In the other room, the Jing Teng sisters were secretly looking out of the window. When she saw them holding each other’s hands, Dark Jing Teng remarked with a harrumph, “See what I’m saying? They definitely have something going on.”

“But she's Qiu Honglei’s master, right? How could they...” White Jing Teng was a bit hesitant.

“Why not? I’m your little sister, but wasn’t it the same?” Dark Jing Teng rolled her eyes.

White Jing Teng clenched her teeth. “You still have the nerve to say that? You keep fighting over everything I have!”

“It's just obtaining things based on skill; what do you mean fighting over it? Besides, shouldn’t you be sharing something that good within the first place?”

White Jing Teng was furious. The sisters quickly began to wrestle with each other, rolling back and forth in the covers.

...

Meanwhile, Yun Jianyue nervously entered the room. She felt that it wouldn't be too good for Honglei to see them intimately holding hands and wanted to pull her hand back. But when she saw Qiu Honglei inside the jade coffin, she exclaimed in horror, “Honglei!”

In that instant, her mind was filled with thoughts that they would never see each other again, and that she had let her down...

When he saw the tears that welled up in her eyes, Zu An quickly explained, “Don’t worry, she's still alive. She just needs to sleep for a while.”

“What exactly happened?” Yun Jianyue asked, suddenly feeling overjoyed. When she moved over to the jade coffin, sure enough, she saw that Qiu Honglei’s breathing was even. She finally calmed down a bit.

Zu An gently caressed Qiu Honglei’s tender face, his expression full of pity as he explained, “For the sake of saving me, Honglei performed the Dance Offering to the Universe...”

Then, he gave her a rough account of everything that had happened in the sealed land.

“No wonder there was that terribly frightening power that everyone in the world could sense. So that was why.” Yun Jianyue gritted her teeth. She then asked, “Then Honglei... How did you save her?” Even though she could see that Honglei was lying there peacefully, she still felt nervous.

“I went on a trip to the Ocean races' territory and found the Divine Dragon Immortal Medicine...” Zu An told her roughly what had happened in the Ocean races' territory.

When she first heard that he had gone to the Ocean races' territory and gotten together with the Mermaid Queen, Yun Jianyue had felt a bit unhappy, thinking that he really couldn't resist fondling the flowers and trampling the grass wherever he went. But when she heard the entire account of events, she becsilent. If it had been anyone else who encountered all of this, they would most likely have ended up dead.

Only Zu An could have just barely managed to complete everything so perfectly. Additionally, the Mermaid Queen had played a vital part. With that, there was no way Yun Jianyue could still be angry. She was even a bit grateful toward the Mermaid Queen. Without her, they wouldn't necessarily have been able to find the Divine Dragon Immortal Medicine, and then there wouldn’t have been a way to save Honglei.

“The incredible things that happen around you really are rare and amazing...” Yun Jianyue sighed deeply. “I thought I'd made great progress recently, and that I’d closed the gap between us, but only now do I realize you’ve gone so far that I can’t even see your back anymore.”

As the Devil Sect Master, she had been exceptionally talented ever since she was young. And yet after she met Zu An, she couldn't help but feel somewhat discouraged. After all, a year or two prior, he hadn’t even been a match for her.

The two had spoken for a long talready. In order to not disturb Qiu Honglei, they quickly returned to the palace.

Zu An said with a smile, “Don’t worry. I'll merge that underworld with this world, and then the source of this world will becstronger. Your cultivation will then rise smoothly as well.”

“But I’ll still be really far from you. I might not even be able to keep up with your footsteps then.” Yun Jianyue didn’t feel too comforted, and still felt a bit sad.

Zu An suddenly had a strange smile as he said, “I do have a way to quickly raise your cultivation.”
