Chapter 306: Chapter 304: The Falling Flower Has Feelings, but the Flowing Water Is Heartless? Lu Ye Takes Action, Slays the City Lord’s Dark Guards

At this moment, Lu Ye’s gaze became slightly peculiar.

Chen Lingxiang saw Lu Ye’s suddenly strange look, and her cheeks flushed slightly.

She quickly explained, "Well... Lingxiang thought, if Young Master Lu teaches me hand by hand, perhaps I would understand a bit faster..."

"Lingxiang is dull-witted, making Young Master Lu laugh..."

Lu Ye pondered for a moment, then nodded and said, "What you said is not entirely without reason."

Although he knew what Chen Lingxiang said might not be entirely sincere, the fact is that teaching hand by hand does make understanding faster.

Seeing that Young Master Lu seemed to understand but didn’t expose her thoughts, Chen Lingxiang was somewhat afraid to meet his gaze.

Soon, Chen Lingxiang immersed herself in the knowledge taught by Lu Ye.

Various insights kept rising, the feeling of opening up the Ren and Du Meridians, realizing it could be done such a way, shocks kept surging.

Regarding Chen Lingxiang’s various shocks, Lu Ye remained calm.

Now he was at least half-step Grandmaster Realm, his strength had taken a qualitative leap compared to a few months ago.

Teaching someone like Chen Lingxiang was almost as easy as lifting a finger.

...

Meanwhile, elsewhere.

Wang Xingluo returned exhaustingly to Cloud Leaf City.

Originally a bit unwilling, but the Forbidden Land’s peril, Wang Xingluo was truly afraid, not daring to venture deeper.

Moreover, concerning the wonders of heaven and earth, he didn’t dare to find a strong Grandmaster Realm, offering compensation for them to act as guardians.

After all, if the Grandmaster Realm becomes tempted... Wang Xingluo might be forced to explain his disappearance.

After dawdling for a few days, he finally returned to Cloud Leaf City.

Upon returning to the city, Wang Xingluo discovered... Meng Lei whom he had detained deep in the Forbidden Zone was gone!

At this moment, Wang Xingluo was thoroughly shocked and furious.

He swiftly ordered his trusted subordinates to investigate, standing in a dim room, his face grim.

...

Several hours later, Chen Lingxiang felt as if she’d almost been filled with cultivation knowledge!

The day’s harvest in the path of cultivation might have taken her several years to explore only a part of it.

"Thank you, Young Master Lu, for teaching the Martial Dao, I have no words to repay..." Chen Lingxiang’s head was buzzing with all the previously imparted knowledge.

Yet, she didn’t forget to thank Lu Ye.

Normally, she would say, unable to repay, would come back as a cow or horse in the next life to repay.

However, she had already developed feelings for Lu Ye... the situation was not normal.

Thus, repaying in the next life would obviously be unsuitable for Chen Lingxiang.

"No need for that, we’ve known each other for several years, friends should help each other." Lu Ye waved his hand and said.

Thinking about it, Chen Lingxiang smiled and said, "After Lingxiang gets busy with this matter... shall I help around Young Master Lu like doing odd jobs?"

Lu Ye chuckled lightly, "Miss Lingxiang is joking, who could afford to have someone from the Innate Realm doing odd jobs."

Chen Lingxiang softly said, "Lingxiang doesn’t want silver..."

Lu Ye: "?"

Looking at Chen Lingxiang with slight implication, Lu Ye said, "Then what does Miss Lingxiang want?"

With a bright smile, Chen Lingxiang said, "I’ll tell Young Master Lu next time, this time I rushed out... Lingxiang needs to go back first, the family is a bit busy."

Upon hearing this, Lu Ye nodded, "Be safe on your way."

"I will..." Suddenly, Chen Lingxiang took off a delicate jade pendant she had worn around her neck since she was young.

"This is a jade pendant Lingxiang has carried since childhood, I have nothing else to offer, so let’s give it to Young Master Lu."

Placing the jade pendant into Lu Ye’s hand, Chen Lingxiang’s eyes showed a hint of reluctance, but she quickly suppressed it.

She would love to stay by Lu Ye’s side a little longer.

However, the current situation in the family is worse than before, Chen Lingxiang didn’t dare stay away from the family too long, for fear of any accidents.

"I... I’m leaving, see you next time." Chen Lingxiang waved at Lu Ye, and the next moment, a familiar flying spirit beast chirped and descended from the sky.

Seeing Chen Lingxiang vaguely showing a hint of reluctance, Lu Ye said, "There’s plenty of time, Miss Lingxiang, no need to be concerned."

Moments later, the flying spirit beast soared into the sky, within a few flaps, it had become a small black dot.

In the sky, Chen Lingxiang looked back down, whispering to herself...

"Fallen flowers are intentional... but what of flowing water?"

Does it hold feelings, or is it heartless?

...

At this moment, in another place, Lu Ye was in a dense forest contemplating the Four Divine Ancient Seals, which currently posed the greatest difficulty in his hands.

Yet Lu Ye loved pondering over this divine technique the most, any free time, the cultivation of the Four Divine Ancient Seals would be placed front and center.

After some comprehension, he would move to other divine techniques, such as the Illusory Destruction Yin Yang Finger heading towards great success, Divine Origin Invisible Sword Qi, etc.

Just when contemplating the White Tiger Seal, before reaching the Cyan Dragon Seal, two men in black suddenly darted from the path not far away, quickly leaving.

Lu Ye’s expression shifted, these were... the Dark Guards of the City Lord’s Mansion?

Previously, when he infiltrated the City Lord’s Mansion, he had seen similar attire.

After contemplating for a moment, Lu Ye quickly deduced, could it be Wang Xingluo returned and discovered Meng Lei had disappeared?

That must be why dark guards were dispatched to investigate.

After all, once Meng Lei went missing, Wang Xingluo would surely become frantic, if exposed, his hypocritical face...

Years of effort would be shattered.

After contemplating for a moment, Lu Ye temporarily interrupted the Four Divine Ancient Seals cultivation and quietly followed them.

Moments later...

The two dark guards from the City Lord’s Mansion, under a dragon-like maneuver, quietly became flying ash, scattered among the forest.

Unfortunately, the dark guards were only at Postnatal Realm level, their background didn’t support them having storage rings.

They only carried a little silver, a poison pill, and a Blood Burst Pill to briefly exhaust potential for extreme circumstances.

Returning to the original place, Lu Ye continued to practice his divine technique.

...

Jiang Family.

Inside the dining hall building, Jiang Qingge was surprisingly seen in the kitchen.

"Miss, what are you doing here?" A female cook saw Jiang Qingge and quickly said, "You better leave, there’s a lot of fumes here, don’t let it suffocate you."

"I’ve come to learn some skills from Aunt Zhao." Upon hearing this, Jiang Qingge smiled slightly, saying, "Don’t worry, Aunt Zhao, you go ahead, I’ll just watch."

The kitchen was busy now, and it was nearly mealtime. Since Miss said so, Aunt Zhao didn’t say much and continued her work.

Jiang Qingge watched attentively from the side; seeing Aunt Zhao’s nimble hands while stir-frying the next dish, it felt somewhat familiar.

Thinking about it, she realized it seemed previously when in the dining hall she saw her sister... her sister had scooped when grabbing her meal?

"Aunt Zhao, is this dish a food supplement ingredient?"

Aunt Zhao replied amidst her busy schedule, "Miss guessed correctly, it’s indeed a food supplement."
