Chapter 886 Imminent Departure
Chapter 886 Imminent Departure
At night, Lin Que and Qi Xiyue sat together by a stream in the valley, just like they had done at the Dan Valley Ruins.
Neither of them spoke, both enjoying the rare tranquility.
Apart from the sound of the flowing stream and the occasional chirping of insects from all around, there was no other noise in the dead of night.
After an unknown amount of time, Qi Xiyue spoke first, asking softly, "You're leaving again... right?"
"Hmm..." Lin Que nodded slightly, then asked, "But Xi Yue, how did you know?"
Lin Que didn't want to hide anything from his woman, so he nodded in acknowledgment, just like Liu Qingyi had done before. However, he was curious about how Qi Xiyue knew.
It seems that they, as alchemists, were not even present at the scene of the great battle.
"Because... you felt the same way when you left that day."
Lin Que was taken aback upon hearing this, then revealed a gentle smile!
However, the smile quickly turned into a deep apology, and she said softly, "I'm sorry, Xiyue, I have to leave temporarily for the sake of the Wind Spirit Realm."
“I understand…” Qi Xiyue shook her head.
Although she understood Lin Que, a hint of sadness still flashed in her eyes, and she subconsciously hugged Lin Que tightly, as if to express her feelings at that moment.
Similarly, Lin Que held Qi Xiyue tightly, his guilt towards her deepening even further...
"Oh, right, Xiyue, there's something else I want to apologize for."
"I...searched the entire Wind Spirit Realm, but I still couldn't find Qi Haoyue's whereabouts."
"I guessed it long ago. After all, I've sent people to search for him over the past few decades, and even with the connections in Medicine King Valley, we still couldn't find his whereabouts."
"Xi Yue, do you think Qi Haoyue might...?"
"impossible."
Before Lin Que could finish speaking, Qi Xiyue interrupted him and said, "I don't know the extent of the power of that mysterious person who took my brother away back then."
"But a gut feeling told me that this person was incredibly powerful!"
"Because... he's the only person whose face I can't remember clearly!"
A mysterious person whose face cannot be clearly remembered!
In an instant!
Lin Que's eyes widened, and his body trembled violently at that moment!
"Promise me!" At this moment, Qi Xiyue also broke free from Lin Que's embrace, her beautiful eyes fixed on him: "You must find Qi Haoyue no matter what!"
"I suspect that he was already taken away from the Wind Spirit Realm by that mysterious person!"
"Take him away from the Wind Spirit Realm..." Lin Que murmured to himself upon hearing this, then nodded heavily at Qi Xiyue!
"it is good!"
"I promise you, Xiyue!"
"I will definitely find Qi Haoyue!"
......
After staying in Medicine King Valley for five days, Lin Que, Qi Lianyue, and Liu Qingyi left together.
And thanks to his extraordinary abilities, Lin Que and the two women arrived at the Overseas Immortal Pavilion in an instant.
However, as soon as they arrived, Xue Ningshuang quickly noticed them. Her exquisite silver-white figure immediately appeared in front of the three of them and smiled as she looked at Lin Que, who was about to leave.
"Since you've come all the way to my Immortal Pavilion, why not come in and be a guest?"
Upon hearing this, Lin Que gave Liu Qingyi and Qi Lianyue a deep look, then smiled and shook his head, saying, "No, Pavilion Master Xue, maybe next time."
"I have something to do in the Lotus Buddha Kingdom."
"Thank you very much for your kindness, Pavilion Master Xue."
After he finished speaking, Lin Que's figure also disappeared, which surprised Xue Ning Shuang slightly.
"Let's go, Master. What are you still standing here for?"
"To be honest, Master, at first, Lian Yue was just as shocked as Senior Sister Qing Yi was by Brother's methods~"
A moment later, Liu Qingyi and Qi Lianyue were about to walk into the sect when they found that their master, Xue Ningshuang, was still standing there without moving. They assumed that she had not yet recovered from the strange way Lin Que had disappeared.
Unexpectedly, Xue Ningshuang uttered a statement that astonished both of them...
"Don't go into the sect yet."
"Come with me, if you wish to see him again..."
On the other side, Lin Que appeared directly in the Lotus Temple of the Lotus Buddha Kingdom.
However, at this very moment, Hui'an, who was chanting sutras in the temple, seemed to know that Lin Que was coming, and immediately got up and opened the courtyard gate.
Sure enough, the moment the gate was opened, Lin Que's smiling figure was seen outside.
"Amitabha!"
"Benefactor Lin, you've arrived..."
After exchanging greetings, Hui'an invited Lin Que to sit down in the courtyard and casually brewed a pot of tea.
"May I ask what brings you to this old monk, Benefactor Lin?" After pouring a cup of tea for Lin Que, Hui'an immediately asked curiously.
Lin Que took a sip of tea and then said with a smile, "Senior Huian, I once heard Abbot Wangchen say that monks of the Lotus Buddha Kingdom do not need to step onto the Ancient Starry Sky Road."
"Instead, when one's cultivation reaches a certain level, one can ascend to the Great Thousand Buddha Realm."
"So I've come here today to ask you a favor, Senior Huian, and also to inquire about something."
Has the new Buddha of the Lotus Buddha Kingdom... appeared?
The atmosphere was quiet at this moment, but to Lin Que's regret, Hui'an slowly shook his head after a moment of silence.
"is it?"
"Oh well..."
Afterwards, the two chatted about other things for two hours before Lin Que got up to say goodbye to Huian.
"Thank you very much, Senior Huian. I will leave the rest to you."
“Amitabha... Benefactor Lin, there’s no need to be so polite.”
As his figure disappeared once again, Lin Que quickly left the Lotus Temple, but instead of leaving the Lotus Buddhist Kingdom, he appeared on the sacred mountain of the Lotus Buddhist Kingdom.
"Little bald guy, I might have to go back on my word..."
Standing atop the mountain for a long time, Lin Que held the white cassock in his hand, his gaze towards the platform ahead revealing regret.
In fact, he had felt a faint unease in his heart several days ago, and the Heavenly Demon Seal imprinted deep in his soul was also trembling slightly, making Lin Que realize that he didn't have much time left.
After taking one last deep look at the platform ahead, which was already covered in snow, Lin Que turned and walked down the mountain, without choosing to disappear instantly.
Since Lin Que had already taken control of the entire Wind Spirit Realm, the pressure from the Holy Mountain had no effect on him. He was simply walking down the mountain slowly to retrace the path he had taken with Wang Chen.
"What are you thinking about, benefactor?"
