Chapter. 29. Missing Feelings
1238 Words
The incident that befell Yuan Liong, regretted Elder Zhou's heart, as an Elder he knew of the conditions of the Thousand Illusionary Forest, for a disciple with an Earth Realm to enter the forest was tantamount to suicide.
“Ouch! They're right arbitrarily, a new student just sent there without a second thought, huft!” annoyed Elder Zhou.
As long as Elder Zhou was an Elder in the Heavenly Dragon Sect, no disciple had yet managed to live after the punishment in the Thousand Illusionary Forest. The Third Generation Patriarch managed to survive the Thousand Illusionary Forest, when he entered that forest, his cultivation was already at the Heavenly Realm.
Even if at this time Elder Zhou decided to go into the forest, he would not necessarily meet Yuan Liong; he could also be trapped in the forest for hundreds of years.
“Looking for that brat in the Thousand Illusionary Forest is like looking for a needle in a haystack,” thought Elder Zhou.
During this whole day, Elder Zhou kept sighing, to quell the anger that had reached the crown of his head, Nalan Jieruo and Murong Qiu saw Grandpa Zhou's behavior, only shaking their heads.
“Grandfather thinks too much about Long Gege, what is the condition of the Thousand Illusionary Forest somehow?” Nalan Jieruo thought.
The two girls also felt the same thing, a feeling of sadness, emptiness, not wanting to be left behind, and a deep feeling of loneliness.
What happened to Yuan Liong deeply stabbed both of them, especially Nalan Jieruo, she was very sure of her feelings.
Nalan Jieruo's behavior was different since separating from Yuan Liong, on the first day they arrived at the Heavenly Dragon Sect, Nalan Jieruo's practice became less focused, she was often daydreaming and aloof.
Nalan Jieruo is well aware of her love for Yuan Liong, every time someone mentions Yuan Liong's name, her heart beats wildly, and her face flushes like a ripe tomato.
Even if Nalan Jieruo tried to hide her feelings, the people around her would be surprised by her behavior.
However, Nalan Jieruo's attitude was different, when she heard the news of Yuan Liong's exile to the Thousand Illusionary Forest, Nalan Jieruo became stronger, not because she was not sad, but because she was more certain, that Liong Gege would always be safe from any harm.
Nalan Jieruo was very confident, stroking the sword Yuan Liong had given her to her grandfather. “Grandfather is worried about Liong Gege, isn't he? Trust me, Grandpa! Liong Gege is always blessed with luck, even if Liong Gege is in the Forest of a Thousand Illusions.”
“Besides, why did you forget Grandpa's advice? No human will continue to laugh at the same joke, why should we continue to grieve at the same sadness? Grandpa forgot?" Nalan Jieruo remembered, smiling gently.
Murong Qiu felt Nalan Jieruo's words were true, joining in. “Yes! That's right, we don't know in the future whether Brother Yuan will leave us for good or will come back to us, so let's wish him all the best!”
Those words, more like self-motivation, Murong Qiu doesn't know yet, does her heart love Yuan Liong or not? But every time she was with Yuan Liong, she could feel the warmth, whether it was the warmth of friendship or the warmth of love.
“Jieruo‘er, unable to cover up her feelings of love for Brother Yuan, what about my own heart?” Murong Qiu thought.
In response to the two girls' words, Grandpa Zhou succinctly replied as well as sneered at the two. “Ouch! You girls, the only thing on your mind is Liong Gege, Liong Gege, and Liong Gege!”
“Grandfather is currently not bothering about that boy's life, what Grandpa is worried about, is the lives of many humans in this Heavenly Dragon Sect, can't you see Grandpa is trying to hold back his anger?” Releasing a powerful killing air.
Grandpa Zhou continued, “Here! Feel Grandpa's murderous air coming out very thick, don't you remember Grandpa's nickname when you were young? s******c Warrior, Yes! That's Grandpa's nickname, Grandpa is trying hard to resist the urge, not to destroy the Law Enforcement Bureau.”
Grandpa Zhou's eyes became even brighter and s******c, as he spoke with a chilling intonation.
Nalan Jieruo and Murong Qiu shuddered in horror at Grandpa Zhou's aura, then Nalan Jieruo said, “Ouch! Grandpa has promised not to show this negative side to us again, hold your anger grandpa!”
“Liong Gege!”
“Liong Gege!”
“I don't know what your current fate is! We can only wait for your return, our best wishes will always be with you …” Nalan Jieruo continued.
Everyone is present there, lost in their thoughts.
“Ouch! That's enough! From today onwards the two of you must train harder, what happened to your Liong Geqe, you must forget about it!” Grandpa Zhou advised.
“In eight months there will be the selection and renumbering of the Heavenly Dragon Sect's strongest disciples.”
“Grandfather wants everyone who is under Grandpa's guidance, will join the competition and enter the top twenty. Today, we will be moving, staying on the hill where Little Liong lives, your two Seniors who live on the hill must also participate.”
“Grandfather will train you there yourself, huh! Grandpa is tired of the behavior of the other Bureau Managers, the students who they say are elite are just empty.” Grandpa Zhou put an end to the heartache.
“Okay, Grandpa! We will obey, train hard,” the two girls answered in unison.
From then on, they lived on the hill where Yuan Liong lived, their presence was warmly welcomed by Ye Xuan and He Fei.
Grandpa Zhou built a new house on the hill. During the process of building a new house, the most unlucky one was Ye Xuan.
Since his inner strength is sealed and is serving his sentence as a sect householder, calls out, “Lack!” attached to Ye Xuan. A call he didn't like, but what could he do? Ye Xuan could only helplessly be teased by the college brothers.
Even so, he continued to work and train diligently, his life really like that of an ordinary human, relying only on the muscles of the body. This opportunity, Ye Xuan used to continue to train in physical strength.
Awaiting Yuan Liong's return, as well as preparing for the sect competition, they continued to train hard. Under Elder Zhou's direct guidance, the four disciples on the hill made rapid progress.
Two months have passed, and the hearts of everyone who lives on this hill are full of anxious anticipation for Yuan Liong's return, but what has been awaited has not shown on the bridge of his nose.
However, with a little advice and explanation from Elder Zhou, the anxiety in everyone's heart was erased already.
Each of them, aiming for a new goal, strengthened themselves for the sect competition, which would be held in the next six months. Moreover, their hard work over the past two months has seen results.
Back then, Nalan Jieruo had broken through to the Early Stage Earth Realm, Murong Qiu was already at the Intermediate Earth Stage, and their two college seniors just needed the right opportunity to break through to the Sky Realm.
