Chapter 866 - 351: Chu Ning? It’s Me! (2)

Decades ago, in the midst of the Thousand Lakes and Thousand Islands, sitting by the lakeside, savoring Spirit Tea, it seemed I saw this often.

But, how could that be possible.

He was merely a Loose Cultivator; how could someone with such Divine Techniques be him.

But those eyes...

Before Cen Zijin could react.

A voice, unfamiliar yet familiar, rang out.

"Long time no see!"

Along with the voice, Chu Ning directly dispelled the Illusion Technique, returning to his original appearance.

Cen Zijin’s clear eyes suddenly widened, and with a slip of her hand, the Turtle Shell fell directly to the ground.

At this moment, her eyes were filled with complex and rich emotions.

Shock, joy, longing...

Those eyes, like clear springs, faintly glistened.

Her lips under the veil seemed to move slightly, but she couldn’t utter any words.

All her eyes saw at that moment were Chu Ning’s gaze full of smiles, and the face that seemed unchanged in decades but made her feel a little unfamiliar.

That gaze, surprisingly also, like Chu Ning’s before, was somewhat entranced.

Everyone around noticed the unusual scene, but no one spoke to interrupt.

It was unclear how long had passed, but the complex emotions in Cen Zijin’s eyes gradually began to dissipate one by one.

Those clear eyes once again became as bright and transparent as a spring, yet with a touch of laughter.

She directly reached out to untie her veil, slightly tilting her clean and refined exquisite face.

Her red lips softly parted, but she only said two words.

"Chu Ning!"

"It’s me!"

The two exchanged smiles.

Cen Zijin then gently turned and began to introduce them to both sides.

"Senior Sister Cheng, Senior Sister Ge, this is my old friend, Fellow Daoist Chu Ning.

This is Senior Sister Cheng Qinghui, Senior Sister Ge Yu, and some of my fellow disciples."

"Thank you, Fellow Daoist Chu!"

Cheng Qinghui and Ge Yu slightly cupped their hands, their eyes inevitably sweeping across Chu Ning and Cen Zijin’s faces.

The scenes that had just occurred, how could they not see that Chu Ning and Cen Zijin had a deep relationship.

Moreover, even within the Sect, Junior Sister Cen, who always wore a veil, now had lifted her veil.

How could this Fellow Daoist Chu before us be just an ordinary person?

Although Chu Ning had a myriad of words he wanted to say to Cen Zijin, after slightly calming down, he could only press them down.

He slightly cupped his hands towards the two female cultivators of Yaochi Palace.

"No need for formalities, Fellow Daoists. This is not a place to linger long. There are still other cultivators within the Purple Moon Sect.

To avoid further complications, it would be best for everyone to leave together now."

Cheng Qinghui almost without hesitation said:

"What Fellow Daoist says is very true. Earlier, we were thinking of staying nearby to either take revenge or rescue fellow disciples of Little Yao Mountain, which proved unwise.

Unexpectedly, just a momentary slip revealed our presence, and they detected it.

They have actually gathered six Golden Core Cultivators, even deploying the Old Demon Jiang, along with dozens of Foundation Establishment cultivators.

If it weren’t for Fellow Daoist stepping in, I’m afraid none of us would have escaped."

"They don’t have just dozens of Foundation Establishment cultivators, but two hundred."

Bai Ling having sorted the storage bags of several Golden Core cultivators came over with a smile.

"The others were taken out by my lord during the attack array by these few individuals."

Despite everyone having witnessed Chu Ning’s Divine Techniques against several Golden Core cultivators just now.

Upon hearing that Chu Ning had single-handedly slain over a hundred Foundation Establishment cultivators while the numerous Golden Core cultivators were completely unaware, they couldn’t help but show surprised expressions.

Chu Ning was slightly surprised at Bai Ling suddenly speaking up.

But seeing her cheerfully looking at Cen Zijin at that moment, he couldn’t help but lightly shake his head with a silent laugh.

As Bai Ling looked at Cen Zijin, Cen Zijin too was examining Bai Ling.

Bai Ling’s Transformation Techniques were indeed exquisite, Cen Zijin couldn’t even tell this was the Spirit Beast she had held many times.

Observing that Bai Ling’s beauty was in no way inferior to her own, Cen Zijin’s gaze couldn’t help but flicker slightly.

Feeling Cen Zijin’s gaze, Bai Ling’s smile grew even wider.

Through Telepathy she said, "My lord, Fairy Cen’s gaze at me, hehe."

Chu Ning turned his head, lightly glared at Bai Ling.

His Illusion Technique was nothing much, dismissed as quickly as it was cast.

But Bai Ling’s Transformation Secret Technique, it was truly not suitable for so many people to know.

Chu Ning immediately ignored Cen Zijin’s somewhat unusual gaze and instead asked Cheng Qinghui:

"Fellow Daoist Cheng, your group is quite large, but do you have any large flying magical treasures?"

"We don’t," Cheng Qinghui shook her head.

At this point, Chu Ning directly took out the huge Bone Boat from Jiang Jiu’s storage bag.

The item turned out to be a rather good flying magical treasure, and it didn’t require any Refinement or anything, just direct use.

Chu Ning infused it with Magical Power, and the Bone Boat immediately expanded.

Subsequently, Chu Ning led everyone aboard in a flying leap.

Then he piloted the Bone Boat, directly flying north towards Chaotic Beast Mountain.

Chu Ning, Cen Zijin, Cheng Qinghui, and Ge Yu stood at the forefront of the Bone Boat.

"Fellow Daoist Cheng, where do you plan to go?"

Hearing Chu Ning’s words, Cheng Qinghui and the other two exchanged glance, their eyes revealing a hint of confusion.

At this moment, Cen Zijin proactively spoke:

"Let’s go to the Thousand Lakes and Thousand Islands. Thirty-odd years ago I visited that place.

There are still no Major Sects there now. Although the Spiritual Qi is slightly thin, at least there’s a place to settle."

Upon hearing this, Chu Ning felt a slight tug at his heart, although he had a thought, it wasn’t appropriate to say it out loud at the moment.
