“Miss Qing, you’ve finally returned.” Long Yunxie smiled as he spoke to Qingcheng.
Qingcheng was puzzled, what did he mean by that?
“Were you waiting for me?” Qingcheng asked.
Long Yunxie nodded; “Yes, I’ve been waiting for you.”
“Weren’t you just asking why I’m here?”
Qingcheng said, “That’s right, because I remember you telling me last time that you were from the Mountain Tai Sect, a small sect in the Pacific Ocean, but this is the Flying Heaven Secret Realm.”
“Actually, I deceived you last time; I’m not from the small Mountain Tai Sect. I’m the Young Master of the Celestial Dragon Sect, Long Yunxie.” Long Yunxie showed a hint of regret on his face: “I apologize to Miss Qing for lying to you last time.”
Qingcheng looked at Long Yunxie with a touch of surprise: “You’re the Young Master Long Yunxie of the Celestial Dragon Sect?”
As the leading sect, Qingcheng had heard of Long Yunxie’s name, who is ranked among the top ten geniuses of the secret realm sects in the Pacific Ocean.
“Why did you say you were from the small Mountain Tai Sect on that island three months ago?” Qingcheng, after her initial surprise, looked at Long Yunxie with confusion.
Long Yunxie said, “I was afraid you’d distance yourself from me or become too polite once you knew my identity as the Young Master of the Celestial Dragon Sect and wouldn’t become friends with me.”
Qingcheng thought it over and agreed. If she had known Long Yunxie’s true identity from the start, she might indeed have been overly polite and wouldn’t have become friends with him.
“I’m here in the Flying Heaven Secret Realm because something major happened at the Flying Heaven Sword Sect.” Long Yunxie spoke cautiously, watching the change in Qingcheng’s expression.
In fact, after revealing his true identity, he was prepared for the worst scenario, where Qingcheng might draw her sword against him.
However, Qingcheng didn’t show hostility, indicating she was unaware of the recent events at the Flying Heaven Sword Sect, the joint action by multiple sects against Lin Fei, and Lin Fei’s escape after being severely injured.
Thus, Long Yunxie suspected that during those events at the Flying Heaven Sword Sect, Qingcheng might have left and gone elsewhere, unaware of what transpired.
Sure enough, Qingcheng showed a face full of tension and asked Long Yunxie, “Young Master Long, what happened at the Flying Heaven Sword Sect?”
Long Yunxie said, “It seems Miss Qing knows nothing. Just a few days ago, the Earth Core Anomalous Fire in the thousand-year cave of Flying Heaven Island appeared; Pacific Ocean sects of all sizes came to Flying Heaven Island. Divine Sword Sect, Profound Celestial Sword Sect, and others harbored enmity against Lin Fei and coveted the Earth Core Anomalous Fire.”
“These sects fought with Lin Fei, and in the end, Lin Fei and Flying Heaven Sword Sect were outnumbered, suffering heavy casualties. It was only when my father, as the Sect Leader of the Celestial Dragon Sect, intervened that the battle was quelled.”
Qingcheng’s face turned pale, anxiously asking Long Yunxie, “Where is Lin Fei? Is he alright?”
Long Yunxie frowned and sighed, “Lin Fei was severely injured by the Sect Leader of the Profound Celestial Sword Sect and the Sect Leader of Divine Sword Sect. My father worried that these sects would retaliate against Lin Fei again, so he took Lin Fei to the Celestial Dragon Sect for treatment and also had all Flying Heaven Sword Sect members temporarily refuge at the Celestial Dragon Sect.”
Qingcheng remembered entering Flying Heaven Island and noticing its eerie silence; everyone had evidently gone to the Celestial Dragon Sect, especially upon hearing of Lin Fei’s serious injuries, she felt as if a knife had pierced her heart.
“Young Master Long, can you take me to see Lin Fei?” Qingcheng’s eyes glistened with tears as she looked at Long Yunxie.
Seeing Qingcheng’s urgent concern for Lin Fei, Long Yunxie couldn’t help feeling jealous, but he didn’t show it on his face and said, “Of course, when Lin Fei followed my father to the Celestial Dragon Sect, it was because he worried you wouldn’t find him once you returned. Therefore, my father left me here to wait for you.”
Qingcheng was moved to tears, hearing that even when injured, Lin Fei hadn’t forgotten her, feeling both touched and pained.
Two crystal-clear tears slid down Qingcheng’s smooth cheeks.
“Miss Qing, don’t be sad. Isn’t Lin Fei alright now? I’ll take you to see him right away,” Long Yunxie comforted Qingcheng with an appearance of concern.
Qingcheng gently nodded.
Then, the two of them successively flew away from Feitian Peak, heading toward the sky beyond the secret realm.
As they left Feitian Peak, several Celestial Dragon Sect experts emerged from the Flying Heaven Hall and saw their Young Master and Qingcheng flying away; they could scarcely believe their eyes.
“Isn’t that Qingcheng, the top beauty of the Qingxu Sect?”
“When did she come to Flying Heaven Island, and why is she with our Young Master?”
“Where is the Young Master taking her?”
“Heh heh, of course, it’s to spend a romantic moment together, maybe even fly together as a pair.”
“Hahaha…”
These Celestial Dragon Sect experts burst out into coarse laughter.
After laughing, one expert suddenly thought of something and said, “The Young Master is going on a date with the beauty; what about us?”
“What about it? Of course, we stay here and wait for Lin Fei to appear, or do you want to go on a date with Qingcheng too?” An expert couldn’t help but tease the one who spoke earlier.
The others laughed heartily, and the embarrassed expert’s face flushed red, resembling a monkey’s bottom.

In the sword tomb chamber, Sword Light flashed like lightning, illuminating the chamber.
Lin Fei was seen wielding the Anger Dragon Sword, practicing swordsmanship in the chamber.
He was practicing the Primordial Sword Skill acquired from the Anger Dragon Sword.
Even though he only gained the Primordial Sword Skill in his mind, its techniques and essence were deeply ingrained in his mind.
Thus, the first time he practiced this sword skill, he reached a state of consummate mastery.
The Primordial Sword Intent, overwhelming Sword Qi, and lightning-fast Sword Light filled the chamber, possessing unfathomable might, akin to the ever-changing wind and thunder.
In Lin Fei’s hands, the Primordial Sword Skill was earth-shattering.
As Lin Fei gathered all his strength, he sent forth a strike into the void; with a boom, the air trembled, and a swift Dragon-like Sword Qi shot forth forcefully.
With a thunderous roar, dirt and stone bricks were upheaved and flew upwards.
Then, the chamber’s ceiling broke open, revealing a large opening several meters wide, leading outside.
Light from outside shone into the chamber.
Lin Fei stealthily activated Saint Fire, and with his force surging, the Anger Dragon Sword transformed into a thin black mist with a swish, entering his body through mysterious power.
After all, it’s a Primordial Sword with extraordinary magic, and Lin Fei had already recognized it as master through blood, able to control it freely with just a thought.
Then, Lin Fei looked at the large opening blasted open by the Anger Dragon Sword, leapt up, and flew out directly.
Lin Fei flew out from the chamber and landed in the open outside.
Outside the sword tomb, the Human-faced Goat looked at Lin Fei with immense astonishment.
It looked again at the several-meter-wide hole in the ground.
It seemed to finally come to its senses and said to Lin Fei, “You’ve already conquered the Anger Dragon Sword?”
Lin Fei nodded calmly at the Human-faced Goat.
The Human-faced Goat showed an expression of disbelief in its eyes; after a while, it sincerely admired him and said, “Lin Fei, your speed in mastering the Anger Dragon Sword is simply faster than the Emperor of Light; truly awe-inspiring for the young generation!”
