Chapter 199: Just a Small Scene
Qi Wei formed a one-handed seal.
Her entire body erupted with a brilliant, water-blue spiritual light.
If an expert looked closely, they would discover that the spiritual light emanating from Qi Wei was not water spiritual power at all.
It was a far more chilling, yin-cold spiritual power.
Qi Wei had simply learned to disguise it.
She cleverly manipulated the aura to make it appear exactly like harmless water spiritual power.
Qi Wei pointed a finger toward the Name List Stele.
A raging torrent of water-blue spiritual power poured out.
It slammed into the Name List Stele with a heavy thud.
In less than three breaths of time, the characters “Qi Wei” materialized upon the massive stone slab.
Qi Wei proudly crossed her arms over her chest.
“Senior Brother, am I amazing?”
Li Meng chuckled.
He reached out and affectionately rubbed his little Junior Sister’s head.
“Amazing. Truly amazing. Come, little Junior Sister, let us go.”
Li Meng took the initiative to hold his little Junior Sister’s hand.
Pulling her along, he turned and began to walk out of the square.
Qi Wei’s eyes curved into happy crescents.
Obediently, she followed her Senior Brother as they departed.
“Who is that little girl?”
“I don’t know!”
“She seems awfully close to Junior Brother Li.”
“Could she be Junior Brother Li’s daughter from the mortal world?”
“Nonsense! Didn’t you see her leave her name on the Name List Stele? She might look young, but her actual age is definitely not small.”
“Could she be a True Disciple from the Masked Moon Peak lineage?”
“Looking at her casual attire and aura, she absolutely must be a True Disciple!”
The surrounding Outer and Inner Disciples gossiped animatedly.
Wherever the pair walked, the crowd naturally parted like the sea.
Regarding the buzzing discussions of their fellow sect members, both Li Meng and Qi Wei chose to completely ignore them.
True Disciples were always surrounded by gaping onlookers wherever they appeared.
Leaving the crowd behind, the two soared into the air, rising straight toward the heavens.
They rode the wind, flying away from the peak.
The two silhouettes, one large and one small, disappeared beyond the horizon in the blink of an eye.
At the exact same time, on a secluded stone platform atop the peak.
Two seemingly young True Disciples sat facing each other.
Yin and Yang energies converged between them in a seamless Dao Exchange.
The male cultivator wore deep gray robes.
His long hair was tied in a neat crown, his face possessing a hint of youthful naivety.
The female cultivator possessed peerless immortal grace.
She wore dark cyan robes.
Her fair, jade-like face seemed meticulously carved by the heavens.
No matter which angle one looked from, she was utterly flawless.
She possessed a heart-stirring, transcendent beauty.
Just then, the female cultivator slowly opened her eyes.
Her beautiful gaze drifted toward the direction Li Meng had just departed.
“Junior Sister, what is wrong?”
The female cultivator had forcefully exited her meditative state.
Naturally, the Dual Cultivation could no longer continue.
The male cultivator had no choice but to also exit his meditative state.
Xue Ruyu stood up.
“Senior Brother, please find another Fellow Daoist for Dual Cultivation.”
The Inner Sect Grand Competition was to be held in three days.
Xue Ruyu had not expected that Senior Brother Li would also participate.
Could it be that Senior Brother Li planned to enter the Kongming Hall?
The male cultivator’s face scrunched up as if he were about to cry.
He started counting pathetically on his fingers.
“Junior Sister, how can you do this? We have only cultivated together for less than a year!”
Xue Ruyu cast a cold glance at the Senior Brother.
Her curvaceous figure rose gracefully into the wind.
Like a celestial maiden soaring into the heavens, she rode the wind and flew toward the distant sky.
She left the male cultivator sitting completely alone on his meditation cushion, sighing into the void.
The male cultivator watched with grief and indignation as Junior Sister Xue vanished into the distance.
“Junior Sister! I… I never want to cultivate with you again!”
The male cultivator’s wail echoed far and wide.
It drew a wave of sidelong glances from the Outer and Inner Disciples still gathered in the square.
Who was that? Making such a racket!
Could it be another male disciple brutally dumped by a female disciple?
Riding the wind, Xue Ruyu glanced back at Senior Brother Sun on the stone platform.
If not for her Master’s strict requirements, she would never have cultivated with Senior Brother Sun in the first place.
Men were such a massive bother.
Senior Brother Li also…
The expression on Xue Ruyu’s face shifted repeatedly.
Senior Brother Li seemed different from other men.
But was he really different?
Was there truly a man in this world who would be purely good to her without seeking any return?
Xue Ruyu felt a deep sense of confusion.
She was uncertain.
Uncertain whether Senior Brother Li was truly the kind of man who would treat her well unconditionally.
Joyous Union Sect.
Inner Sect territory.
Moon Gaze Peak.
In the courtyard before the peak-top pavilion.
Two figures, one large and one small, descended from the sky.
Their robes fluttering in the breeze, they landed gracefully on the ground.
Upon landing, the two looked at each other.
Qi Wei tugged nervously at her Senior Brother’s sleeve.
“Senior Brother… what is going on?”
Qi Wei’s gaze swept over the stone tea table.
A large number of uninvited guests had occupied the area.
There was the cold Senior Sister Leng in white robes.
There was Junior Sister Yao in black martial attire.
There was Junior Sister Xia in a purple rainbow dress.
There was Junior Sister Zhang in white Daoist robes.
And there were also three Inner Sect female disciples in purple rainbow dresses whom they did not recognize.
Seven women sat around the tea table in dead silence.
Each was quietly sipping her tea.
The atmosphere was dangerously tense.
“Senior Brother! Should we escape?”
Qi Wei lowered her voice to a conspiratorial whisper.
The Junior Sisters from the Masked Moon Peak lineage were one thing.
But what was the deal with those other two Inner Sect female disciples?
The aura and immortal grace of these women were extraordinary.
And the way they were looking at her Senior Brother was entirely too predatory.
Li Meng reached out and patted his little Junior Sister’s head.
Just a small scene.
He certainly wasn’t going to run.
Li Meng walked toward the tea table with a casual, indifferent smile.
Arriving at the table, Li Meng chuckled.
His gaze landed first on Junior Sister Xia.
Under her Senior Brother’s gaze, Xia Qian’s cheeks flushed a bright red.
Suddenly, a surging, overwhelming aura of fox charm exploded outward.
The entire courtyard was instantly dyed a deep shade of pink.
The several women by the tea table showed expressions of absolute helplessness.
Each simply raised her teacup and took a resigned sip.
Li Meng narrowed his eyes, observing Junior Sister Xia, whose aura had drastically transformed.
At this moment, Junior Sister Xia seemed to have become a hundred times more beautiful.
Just smelling that intoxicating fragrance was enough to make a man’s heart race.
If it were an ordinary early Foundation Establishment cultivator standing here…
They would have likely lost their minds on the spot.
They would have been reduced to mindless slaves of desire without even realizing it.
Li Meng calmly raised his hand and flicked Junior Sister Xia’s forehead from a distance.
“Ouch!”
Xia Qian let out a delicate cry of pain.
Clutching her forehead, she looked pitifully up at her Senior Brother.
Li Meng chuckled, stroking his beard.
“Junior Sister Xia, your Charm Technique still lacks refinement. If you cannot achieve free control over it, then aside from Moon Gaze Peak and Masked Moon Peak, you are forbidden from going anywhere else!”
Xia Qian dejectedly lowered her hand.
“Understood, Senior Brother…”
Why was it that she could never achieve the free control her Senior Brother spoke of?
Why did the Charm Technique always activate on its own whenever he looked at her?
Li Meng swept an appraising glance at Junior Sister Xia.
A trace of genuine envy flashed in his eyes.
In less than three short years, Junior Sister Xia had broken through from the eighth layer of Qi Condensation all the way to early Foundation Establishment.
The Ancestor truly took exceptionally good care of Junior Sister Xia.
Li Meng then shifted his gaze toward Chen Lan, Yuan Baobao, and Hua Biying.
“Junior Sister Chen, Junior Sister Yuan, Junior Sister Hua—all the Junior Sisters seated here are True Disciples of the Masked Moon Peak lineage. Of course, that includes the little Junior Sister by my side.”
True Disciples of the Masked Moon Peak lineage?
A flash of intense surprise crossed the eyes of Chen Lan, Yuan Baobao, and Hua Biying.
The three women immediately prepared to rise and bow in greeting.
But Li Meng waved a hand, stopping them.
“This is Moon Gaze Peak. Here, everyone is a fellow sect disciple. There is no need for excessive formalities!”
A trace of curiosity flashed in the eyes of the three women.
They were all clearly True Disciples of Masked Moon Peak.
Why, then, did they call him “Senior Brother”?
Li Meng reached out and ruffled the hair of the little girl standing beside him.
“This is Little Junior Sister. Surname Qi, given name Wei. Do not let her size fool you; she is the Senior Sister here!”
Li Meng casually sat down on his large reclining chair.
Qi Wei waved her small hand.
She produced a matching, miniature reclining chair.
Imitating her Senior Brother’s opulent posture, she sat down on her little chair.
