Chapter 697 Don't act like a giant baby
"We've arrived. This is where our Cloudview Valley base is located."
"It is also the only place on the Chongming Continent where the remaining cultivators of various sects, who are not and do not want to be corrupted by the darkness, live."
Upon hearing this, everyone from Yunwang Valley fell silent...
Ning Zhichuan's words were completely unreserved; he frankly stated their current situation, for that was the truth, and there was nothing to hide.
Lin Que had also heard Ning Yanxue say that Yunwang Valley was the last pure land on the Chongming Continent.
After countless sects fought and were defeated by those extraterrestrial demons, the remaining cultivators of the Chongming Sect were unwilling to submit, so they all came to hide in Yunwang Valley.
I just don't know how they discovered Yunwang Valley in the first place.
Even Ning Yanxue said that her father, Ning Zhichuan, the current master of Yunwang Valley, was unaware of it.
After landing, the group headed into the peach blossom grove.
But just as they stepped into the peach blossom grove, suddenly!
Swish!Swish!Swish!
Several figures immediately emerged from the forest, their expressions icy as they stared at Lin Que and Shen Wuliang!
"Valley Master, who are these two people?!"
"Why is there a dark aura emanating from them?!"
Upon hearing this, Ning Zhichuan waved his hand and said, "It's alright. They are not members of the Divine Cult, and their minds have not been corrupted by those dark auras. They are honored guests of my Yunwang Valley."
"You can rest assured!"
I will explain it to you later.
"In that case, we will not disturb them for now." The group of people who had suddenly appeared glanced at Lin Que and Shen Wuliang again before disappearing once more.
"Alright, let's go." Ning Chuan then glanced at Lin Que and the others, signaling them to follow.
As Lin Que walked through the peach grove, he chatted with Ning Yanxue, but his mind was still replaying the scene from just now.
It seems that not everyone in Yunwang Valley respects Ning Zhichuan as the Valley Master, since Lin Que didn't see any respect in their eyes just now.
It is full of doubts!
However, upon further reflection, it makes sense. Although they all live in Yunwang Valley, and Ning Zhichuan is the Valley Master of Yunwang Valley, the cultivators in Yunwang Valley are remnants of various sects gathered together. They were not originally from the same power or sect, and each had its own pride.
Although you are the Valley Master on the surface, it doesn't mean they have to respect you.
Perhaps the valley master is only chosen to handle some trivial matters within the valley. After all, if Yunwang Valley is to function properly on the surface, there must be a leader on the surface.
But Lin Que had no idea what the specifics of the situation were, since he wasn't a member of Yunwang Valley.
As the group entered the area filled with verdant bamboo pavilions, Lin Que quickly saw many cultivators from Yunwang Valley appear, and they all stopped what they were doing at that moment.
All eyes turned to Lin Que and his group of strangers, some with doubt, some with curiosity, and some with furrowed brows and wariness!
But what I felt most was the amazement and shock after seeing Liu Qingyi!
What's stunning is her appearance, but what's truly awe-inspiring is her cultivation level.
Although Ning Yanxue's beauty was equally stunning, and even surpassed Liu Qingyi's in some aspects, perhaps because she was well-known in Yunwang Valley, not many people were surprised by her return.
However, Lin Que soon realized that something was wrong. Although those people did not show any amazement at Ning Yanxue.
But besides focusing on Liu Qingyi, many of their gazes were directed at him, each with a hint of amusement in their eyes.
This made Lin Que frown, not understanding what these people meant by their gazes.
But he understood why the next moment.
While Lin Que was chatting with Ning Yanxue, he was also pondering the meaning behind those amused glances.
suddenly!
Swish!
An incredibly excited figure flashed out from the crowd ahead and darted in front of the group.
To be precise, it darted right in front of Ning Yanxue and Lin Que, causing everyone to stop in their tracks.
The newcomer was an excited man with fair skin and handsome features. He said to Ning Yanxue, "Yanxue, you're finally back!"
"Do you know how worried I was while you were away from the valley!"
"Where have you been? Don't you know how dangerous it is outside the valley?!"
However, upon hearing this, Ning Yanxue's beautiful eyes flashed with a hint of disgust, and she said in a tone as indifferent as a stranger, "Where I go is none of Fellow Daoist Wang's concern. Fellow Daoist Wang, please step aside."
“We have other things to do.”
These words startled the man, who then glanced at Lin Que beside her. His smile vanished instantly, and his expression turned icy cold.
The look in his eyes as he looked at Lin Que still carried a hint of sharpness!
"Yan Xue, you were chatting so happily with him just now!"
"Who is this person?!"
"Don't you know that Cloudview Valley forbids any cultivators corrupted by the aura of darkness from entering?!"
Upon hearing this, Lin Que was speechless!
isn't it?
Is this another one of those melodramatic scenarios? I was just having a casual chat with the person you admire. I have no interest in Ning Yanxue and I'm not trying to compete with you for her. Why are you targeting me?
Besides, didn't you see that the person you admire really dislikes you?
The way I'm looking at you is full of disgust, why don't you just back away?
However, even if these words are spoken, it will be useless; this person will probably not pay any attention to them at all!
Strangely, despite this person blocking their way and having a cultivation level of only the early stage of the Nascent Soul Realm, Ning Zhichuan and the others did not speak up to stop them, but calmly watched what would happen next.
"What does this have to do with you, Fellow Daoist Wang!" At this moment, Ning Yanxue's tone also turned cold, and she said coldly to the person in front of her, "This is a distinguished guest that my father brought back to Yunwang Valley!"
"Please make way immediately!"
"Don't delay our business!"
Clearly, Ning Yanxue brought her father, Ning Zhichuan, along because she wanted him to leave quickly.
But the man ignored him completely and said indifferently to Lin Que, "According to the rules of Yunwang Valley, anyone who carries a dark aura is not allowed to set foot in Yunwang Valley!"
"Even if they are the Valley Master's distinguished guests, it's not allowed!"
"Although I don't know who you are."
"But please leave my Cloudview Valley immediately, otherwise..."
But before he could finish speaking, Lin Que called out calmly, "Little Black!"
Swish!
In an instant, a dark shadow emerged from Lin Que's body, immediately causing the surrounding group of people to widen their eyes!
"This is!!!"
Even the man was taken aback.
Immediately afterwards, Lin Que shrugged indifferently and said, "Alright, I don't have that dark aura on me anymore."
"Now I can finally have it, right?"
"Oh, and there's more!"
"Although I don't know who you are, or whether you have feelings for Ning Yanxue, none of that matters to me!"
"But as the saying goes, a good dog doesn't block the way, so you'd better move aside!"
"Don't waste everyone's time."
"Honestly, you're such a grown man, yet you still have no manners. Go back and have your old man teach you a lesson."
"Don't act like a giant baby and need me, a stranger, to teach you."
Upon hearing this, an eerie silence fell over the surrounding area...
