Chapter 340: All Things Work Together to Observe the Restoration

“When people are walking on the road, they always have to look forward. Although there are some touching moments in the process, they are just a flash of light behind them. Even if you think about it again in the future, you may not know whether you will laugh while crying, or cry while laughing.”

……

Long Qi stroked the jade flute in his hand, thinking about the words Lingxiang left before she left. He really didn't know what Lingxiang meant by this, but every time he thought about it, he always felt that there was something else in her words.

"The mountains are high and the waters are long, we have nothing to do with each other anymore..."

Long Qi laughed at himself.

Yes! He and Lingxiang were acquainted by chance, and Lingxiang took him in out of kindness. Why should he demand more?
but he……

He just fell in love with her, fell in love with her eccentricity, fell in love with her heartlessness, fell in love with everything about her.

Long Qi didn't know when this feeling started. Maybe it was when Lingxiang of Cangzhou City dressed up for the first time, or maybe it was when she was leisurely lying on the hammock in the You Ran Residence, or maybe it was the smell of medicine that hit him when he fell to the ground tired that day...

Thinking about it carefully, ever since I met Lingxiang, her every move always influenced my mood. Although I always looked like I didn't care, I was actually afraid that she would be snatched away. As long as she was around, I wished I could have a pair of eyes on her.

In Long Qi's heart, Lingxiang is like a piece of natural jade, which is lustrous and smooth even without being carved.

but……

I still failed to protect her...

Long Qi sighed and touched the blowing hole of the jade flute, where there seemed to be the scent of Lingxiang's lips still lingering.

There was a rustling sound, and then an old man in a gray robe sat down next to Long Qi. This old man had white hair and beard, long eyebrows, and dark eyes that filled his entire eye sockets.

"Ancestor..."

It turns out that this old man is the incarnation of Wu Ji - the celestial dragon who was banished to the mortal world by the Heavenly Queen, the ancestor of the Long family.

Before Lingxiang left, she returned the four sword manuals of the Long family to Long Qi, but two of them were already messed up. Long Qi then decided to find Wu and revise them, and practice together with his ancestor.

Wu Ji glanced at the emerald green flute in Long Qi's hand and curled his lips: "Hey, kid, are you thinking of someone when you see something?"

Long Qi didn't feel embarrassed and just smiled, but it only lasted for a moment before his expression dimmed again.

Seeing this, Wu Ji slapped Long Qi on the back of the head, but this slap was extremely gentle.

"What are you thinking about, little brat?"

Long Qi knew that this was the love his ancestor showed him. He grinned and looked down at the Qingfeng Jade Flute in his hand.

"Grandma, she said that her fate with me has ended and she has nothing to do with me anymore..."

Wu Ji smacked his lips when he heard this: "That doesn't sound wrong."

Long Qi's eyes widened and he jumped up at once: "What is the ancestor talking about?"

Seeing Long Qi like this, Wu Jizhi said something very unsteady and asked Long Qi to sit down.

"Let me ask you, are you and that girl related by blood?"

Long Qi shook his head upon hearing this, and Wu Ji asked again:

"Do you consider her a friend?"

Long Qi nodded first, then quickly shook his head.

"You know, old ancestor, I thought she was..."

"Yes!" Wu Ji couldn't stop Long Qi from speaking, and interrupted him with a raised voice, "You two are neither blood relatives nor close friends, so how can you be related?"

Long Qi thought about it carefully. If he insisted on understanding it this way, it would make sense, but...

"But she said that her fate with me has ended..."

"That's even more correct!" Wu Ji smiled and stroked his long eyebrows. "She and you are master and disciple after all. Since you covet that girl, it is always inappropriate in the eyes of the world. Now that the girl has severed your master-disciple relationship, doesn't this just fulfill your little thought?"

Can you still understand it this way? Long Qi looked at Wu Ji in disbelief. After spending the past two years together, he had every reason to suspect that his ancestor was teasing him, but...

"Really?"

"Of course, who am I? But your ancestor, when he was in heaven, drank with Emperor Ziwei at the same table!"

Long Qi curled his lips, but he still believed it, even though it was only Wu Ji's one-sided statement.

"But..." Long Qi was still a little hesitant, "But why did Lingxiang give me the Hanyu Pill? Did she know what was going to happen at that time?"

Wu Ji smiled and said, "All things are created together, and we can see their return. This girl is really wise!"

Long Qi didn't understand and looked at Wu Ji in confusion. Wu Ji looked disgusted and flicked his finger on Long Qi's forehead.

"Silly boy, this is a blessing!"

Blessed?

They were all taken to the demon world, where is the blessing...

Long Qi rubbed his head. He really couldn't understand what the ancestor meant.

Wu Ji sighed and really wanted to roll his eyes at Long Qi, but unfortunately he had no whites in his eyes.

"Those who practice cultivation reach the extreme of emptiness, maintain purity, return to the source, and restore their mission. They can fight against evil at the lowest cost, discover the evil of evil, and observe their own weaknesses."

“To realize the Way of Heaven and to look within, how can this not be a blessing?” Wu Ji stroked his long beard with a look of approval.

Long Qi was confused by what he heard, but he understood one thing: Lingxiang did not abandon him, and she had her reasons for doing so.

Yes, Lingxiang seems to act erratically, but she always has a plan inadvertently. She is just that kind of person. It's not the first day I've known her, so shouldn't I trust her?
Long Qi lowered his head again and stroked the jade flute in his hand. The flute was smooth and silky, just like Lingxiang's smile that day.

After a long time, Long Qi smiled softly, stood up suddenly, put the jade flute in his arms, turned around and walked into the stone chamber.

"It's done!"

Wu Ji didn't even look back, he just stroked his long beard and smiled, but Long Sheng appeared quietly at this time.

Looking at Long Qi's receding back, Long Sheng asked doubtfully, "Are you so sure that Young Master Long Qi's knot has been untied?"

"Tsk!" Wu Ji looked dissatisfied when he heard this, "Why? Boy, you don't believe in the ancestors?"

Upon hearing this, Long Sheng hurriedly said that he didn't dare, but he really didn't believe it. After all, in the past two years, Long Qi often sighed and became listless from time to time.

Now that the Long family only has this one child, how can he feel at ease?

Wu Ji patted Long Sheng on the shoulder and said, "Relax, he's just a young boy. Can't the old ancestor handle his thoughts? Wouldn't it be a waste of all these years? But you..."

Long Sheng didn't understand what was going on, so what happened to him?
"You are not young anymore. You are my descendant. Don't put all your thoughts on that kid. Think more about yourself. Children and grandchildren will have their own blessings. He will grow up eventually."

When Long Sheng heard this, his face turned red and he turned away, trying to cover his face.

How can he take care of himself when the Long family's revenge has not yet been taken?

Fortunately, Long Qi finally cheered up, which is a comforting thing to see.

At this moment, Long Qi seemed to have taken a reassurance pill and stood up on his own.

Master Fuyin was unable to crack the Hanyu Pill, but he said that the Hanyu Pill only stagnated the Qi and meridians, but did not affect cultivation. If one day, his cultivation was deep enough, he might be able to break through the confinement of the Hanyu Pill.

Long Qi discovered these days that although he could not use his full strength in martial arts, he could still perform magic.

Lingxiang often said that she only knew how to use brute force. This might be what Lingxiang did on purpose so that she could concentrate on practicing magic.

Yes, yes, our ancestors said so, so it must be true!

Thinking of this, Long Qi held his breath and concentrated again.

Lingxiang, wait for me!
Wait for me to rescue you!
