Dual Cultivation God Returns

Chapter 398 And So It Begins...



"The Palace Master sent a Formation?"

Wu Long raised his eyebrows as he looked at Ye Ling.

"Mm, she asked about the dimensions and layout of the mansion before, so I assumed that was the case but it seems I really was right. She has sent the formation with the others who just departed"

She confirmed with a nod and a smile at his reaction, as he was truly surprised.

'Huh, and I expected a fit from her saying that I threw everything to her. I guess I really was a bit too mean this time.

I need to properly thank her when I come by the sect before the Winter Forest Hunt"

He thought, feeling a little guilty from this unexpectedly big-hearted response to his actions. Though he did have a nagging feeling that something was off and this was not a natural reaction from Lian Zhiqiu. This unforeseen thoughtfulness and consideration sparked a suspicion that she may want him to feel guilty by acting magnanimously.

But since he did not have any proof and could not objectively find any signs, he decided to delay making a final call on the authenticity of this behavior.

"In any case, since they departed, I should soon go meet them midway"

He chuckled, as the group traveling from the Yin Yang Unity Pavilion could still be targeted albeit not by people in the Seven Profound Realms.

Wu Long was sparring with Shen Min and Hua Ziyan to give them hints on what to improve over the couple of days he would be away, as Feng Yi who just recovered looked from the side with Ye Ling.

The two did not speak much, but there was strangely no awkwardness between them as the former somehow understood from Wu Long's words that not everything was as easy as it seemed, and this lady who always looked calm and collected had her own demons. Not to mention she could now feel that there was goodwill despite her harsh training when she went over her memories.

She only failed to recognize it earlier because of the more overpowering emotions that swayed her, and the absence of time to process anything during the training as she was constantly put on the very edge of her abilities.

Olive green eyes that reflected three contrastingly darker forms moving in a field of white, curiously turned to the side, as the reflection in them shifted to a much closer, beautiful face with calm expression and eyes full of endearment looking forward and into the distance, at the place where figures danced among the snow.

'Hmm, and she called Wu Long clumsy... who is the clumsier of the two I wonder?'

A thought went through the red-haired beauty as a slightly guilty feeling filled her for inwardly calling this woman a Demon.

Suddenly, the look in Ye Ling's eyes shifted in tone and Feng Yi turned to the field, where Wu Long stopped, raising his hand to stop the beauties as he took out a communication jade that lightly glowed. His expression turning from a kind and attentive one while he taught them to a serious one.contemporary romance

"So it begins..."

A whisper fell from Ye Ling's lips as she watched that expression, making Feng Yi wonder how she could read Wu Long, whose thoughts were usually very hard to tell unless he wanted to show them, so well.

Wu Long's figure turned to the two he was training, seemingly communicating something as he then turned on the spot and stepped, disappearing and leaving only a cloud of snow, appearing in front of Feng Yi and Ye Ling moments later. Two brown-haired beauties followed suit, appearing just a few steps later.

"Tingren?"

"Mm"

Ye Ling and Wu Long's short exchange made the other three tense up as they sensed that a new chapter was starting, and that the tranquil period they had up to now may soon come to an end.

"I will stay here as we discussed, not to mention that Mingyu is still in seclusion. And Ziyan has to prepare for the Winter Forest Hunt as it is nearing as well, so she has to train more intensively"

"Haa~ I would have preferred to be here until Mingyu exits her closed-door seclusion to be honest, but I guess I cannot be picky. Min'er, I guess you are coming with me?"

"Yes"

As Ye Ling spoke, Hua Ziyan nodded with a little regret but accepting the necessity, while Shen Min nodded to Wu Long's words with a determined expression.

"Yi'er?"

"I will follow you"

The red-haired beauty spoke up with no hesitation, partly eager to not part with him again after meeting, and partly not wanting to stay in fear of Ye Ling's lessons. Even if she accepted her motives and did not hold any negative feelings anymore, it did not mean she didn't dread repeating that experience.

"Good.

I guess you will have to be the one welcoming the others. Some of Old Yen's new proteges arrived earlier, relieving him of following the Luo Family Patriarch, so he is busy picking up new talent in this city at the moment.

When Butler Bang arrives he will pick out a chunk from what Old Yen gathers and start training them as servants and his subordinates in the other meaning as well on the mansion premises, in the old servant quarters. The rest will be trained by Old Yen along with the people he already found, taking up the previous wine distillery that this mansion came with"

Wu Long nodded to Feng Yi, and then turned to give a short run-down of the upcoming events that he was supposed to oversee in person but couldn't due to earlier departure to Ye Ling who would be left in charge of the mansion.

The trio of Wu Long, Shen Min and Feng Yi then went outside of the mansion, traveling in the direction of the Tuamei Kingdom that the Yin Yang Unity Palace was located in, and where the group that just departed was coming from, passing a few small towns and then disappearing in the snowy plains at speeds that hid them from onlookers.

As soon as they left that trail and made their direction clear before vanishing from the sight of any observers, they discreetly turned in the other direction, circling around to the Tingren Kingdom.
