Chapter 652 650: This Is What It Means to Be Celestial Monarch Xu's Inheriting Disciple
Cui Xinyun and Huang Qi both looked at each other without saying a word.
After a moment, Huang Qi finally spoke.
"Can you help me?"
This was the reason she came to Cui Xinyun.
She wanted Cui Xinyun to help her.
Matchmake her and Mo Lin for marriage.
Cui Xinyun's eyes narrowed slightly; though she didn't say anything directly, her attitude was quite clear.
This was an expression of refusal.
"You and Mo Lin can never be together, you should know this in your heart." Huang Qi made it clear.
Cui Xinyun absolutely cannot be with Mo Lin.
Because Cui Xinyun's identity is different; she is not just an ordinary person.
She comes from Immortal Island, and back then, for the Cui Family to leave Immortal Island, everyone died.
Only Cui Xinyun survived.
"Helping me marry Mo Lin would be beneficial for you, for me, and for Mo Lin." Huang Qi stood up and left, leaving behind a sentence.
"Think about it yourself."
Although Cui Xinyun refused now, she would definitely figure it out later.
Cui Xinyun is a smart person; she would surely choose the best option.
"I won't."
Cui Xinyun stood up and addressed Huang Qi's retreating figure.
"I won't help you and Mo Lin get together."
Huang Qi was stunned for a moment; she never expected Cui Xinyun to refuse.
After all, from her perspective, Cui Xinyun and Mo Lin could never be together.
If it were to be compared, it would be like the end of all people is death.
Similarly, Cui Xinyun's end is a lifetime of loneliness.
This is her fate.
"You... why?" Huang Qi couldn't understand why Cui Xinyun would choose the worst option.
"There may be other things I would consider, but on this matter, I want to be a bit selfish.
Even knowing I can't be with Mo Lin, I won't give up.
Maybe I will burden Mo Lin, but I don't want to let him go either." Cui Xinyun was completely honest.
She laid bare the words from her heart.
At this moment, she just wanted to be selfish.
Even knowing she would drag down Mo Lin, she didn't want to give Mo Lin to Huang Qi.
As for her own matters, one day she would reveal everything to Mo Lin.
Huang Qi was silent for a long time before she finally spoke.
"You've changed..."
Cui Xinyun didn't want to give up on Mo Lin, and similarly, Huang Qi didn't want to give up on Mo Lin either.
She just had to think of another way.
.....
Jingming Daoism.
Mo Lin stood alone outside Jingming Daoism, waiting for Tang Qingqing to arrive.
Tang Qingqing had a last-minute issue; it seemed related to the Third Daoist Lord, and she went to attend to it.
She asked Mo Lin to wait for her.
"Tap tap tap..."
The sound of dense footsteps came from a distance.
Looking toward the direction of the sound.
A group of people came.
At the forefront was a young man in Daoist robes.
Mo Lin had met this young man before.
It was Zhang Qiu, who had previously had a conflict with Mo Lin.
Over the Celestial Gate quota issue, he sought trouble with Mo Lin, but Tang Qingqing had stopped him.
"Are you afraid of having your identity tested, planning to run away?"
Zhang Qiu straightforwardly said to Mo Lin, "Are you planning to flee when your identity as the ancestral heir apprentice gets exposed after testing?"
Tang Qingqing left earlier due to some matters, and Zhang Qiu came right after.
Mo Lin didn't think this was coincidental.
It was obvious that Tang Qingqing was intentionally directed away, giving Zhang Qiu a chance.
"Do you think I won't get angry after being provoked time and again?"
Mo Lin's eyes narrowed slightly, and the next moment, the Cyan Cloud Sword soared and hovered in front of Mo Lin.
The sword's pitch-black blade exuded a sharp aura.
Even a dog would get angry if bullied time and again, wouldn't it?
Moreover, Zhang Qiu's troubles were clearly premeditated.
"Oh, really... you think I'm afraid of you?"
Zhang Qiu scowled at Mo Lin, "I happen to be the eleventh-generation disciple of Jingming Daoism, I'm not afraid of you."
Zhang Qiu drew his sword, engaging in a standoff with Mo Lin.
Behind Zhang Qiu, a dozen eleventh-generation disciples drew their swords too.
They couldn't watch their fellow disciple being bullied.
This group was indeed quite united.
"Come with me to the Ninth-generation Disciple Palace, to verify the authenticity of your identity as an ancestral apprentice." Zhang Qiu was here to take Mo Lin to the Ninth-generation Disciple Palace to verify his identity.
"I can go with you after I return." Mo Lin wasn't afraid of verifying his identity.
But right now, Mo Lin didn't have the time.
Mo Lin was anxious to find Yun Xue'xue.
If he went late and Yun Xue'xue died, Mo Lin might regret it for the rest of his life.
He wouldn't delay his time because of Jingming Daoism's issues.
"Heh..."
Zhang Qiu sneered, "You think I'm a fool?
If you leave, would you still come back?
Do you think I'm stupid?
Right now, you have to come with me to the Ninth-generation Disciple Palace."
Zhang Qiu wasn't foolish; if Mo Lin left, he definitely wouldn't return.
He absolutely wouldn't let Mo Lin go.
"Just because of the Celestial Gate quota, you had to pick a fight with me?" Mo Lin frowned, the fury in his heart had reached its peak.
That Zhang Qiu, annoying like a maggot.
"Yes and no." Zhang Qiu said mysteriously.
In fact, he was hinted by someone to forcibly take Mo Lin to the Ninth-generation Disciple Palace to verify his identity.
The benefit was an exceptional grant of a Celestial Gate quota.
"I don't want to resort to violence, I hope you'll cooperate a little." Zhang Qiu threatened Mo Lin.
"Do it then."
More words would only be wasteful.
Mo Lin had no patience left for idle talk with Zhang Qiu.
Zhang Qiu directly swung his sword, charging at Mo Lin.
The swordplay he displayed was not the Jingming Exorcism Swordsmanship, but another set of sword skills from Jingming Daoism.
Jingming Dao Swordsmanship.
This set of sword skills was one all disciples would learn.
Exorcising evil, vanquishing ghosts, were all extremely powerful.
Zhang Qiu brandished his sword, chopping toward Mo Lin's limbs.
His goal was simple, to capture, not to kill.
He intended to make Mo Lin lose his ability to resist.
Mo Lin dodged left to avoid Zhang Qiu's incoming sword, and in the next moment, Mo Lin slapped Zhang Qiu's chest with his palm.
Zhang Qiu's body instantly retreated, losing all strength in that moment.
Zhang Qiu was astonished as if Mo Lin had seen through his swordplay.
Mo Lin hadn't even drawn his sword yet had broken through Jingming Dao Swordsmanship.
Mo Lin had experienced Celestial Monarch Xu's teachings, and now his mastery of the Jingming Exorcism Swordsmanship had reached another level.
Zhang Qiu's Jingming Dao Swordsmanship evolved from Jingming Exorcism Swordsmanship.
So Mo Lin saw through Zhang Qiu's swordplay at a glance.
Seeing Zhang Qiu defeated, the other dozen disciples charged at Mo Lin simultaneously.
One has to admit, they were quite united.
Mo Lin didn't hold back at all, aligning his index and middle fingers, pointing it toward the air.
As Mo Lin's motion completed,
Behind Mo Lin appeared a figure clad in Daoist robes, wearing a Cyan Jade Lotus Crown, making the gesture of wielding a sword.
In that moment, the world was enveloped in darkness.
The world turned into a grey mist at that moment.
Zhang Qiu's pupils dilated,
He wanted to dodge, only to find no escape.
Time seemed to slow down at that moment.
Zhang Qiu's movements became exceptionally sluggish, like slow replay ten times over, he could only watch as the sword light descended upon him.
Zhang Qiu's heart leapt into his throat.
He didn't know what others saw,
But Zhang Qiu saw the figure of the ancestor, Celestial Monarch Xu, within Mo Lin.
This sword strike was akin to the scene during the Crossing Celestial Gate, witnessing Celestial Monarch Xu slaying the dragon.
The swordsmanship was identical to Celestial Monarch Xu's.
Without the slightest difference.
This person... is truly Celestial Monarch Xu's disciple.
As an eleventh-generation disciple, although he hadn't seen the genuine Jingming Exorcism Swordsmanship,
He had witnessed the scene of Celestial Monarch Xu slaying the dragon.
Exactly the same as Mo Lin.
Zhang Qiu's pupils scattered; he understood clearly, if he died today,
Then he simply died; no one would seek justice for him.
After all, the person before him is the disciple of Celestial Monarch Xu, destined to inherit Jingming Daoism in the future.
No one would make trouble for Mo Lin over the death of someone as inconsequential as him.
