Itās also strange.
It seems that just picturing that sister in the mind surpasses all sorts of Purifying Heart Spells, soothing the spirit and calming the emotions.
"Cloud Rain is just Cloud Rain." Li Zhibai thought Zhu Pingniang hadnāt said anything useful, but that sentence for a woman, a thousand important matters are not as great as what she likes, really hit the mark.
As long as Ms. Yun likes it, Cloud Rain and Mu Yu are no different, whatās wrong with that?
If Yun Qian didnāt want to dress more beautifully, how would she have the opportunity to teach that unambitious girl Dianzhuang?
This matter, I have to thank Changāan.
Thinking of Yun Qian wanting to use makeup to āseduceā Xu Changāan, and recalling the couch that was once trampled by Yun Qian and Xu Changāan that collapsed, Li Zhibai felt that the so-called Cloud Rain was actually because Yun Qian wanted a child?
But that girl doesnāt have Gui Water.
So she canāt conceive.
Thus, cultivation became even more important.
Yin Yang Dual Cultivation technique... Ms. Yun should like it, right?
A smile could not be suppressed at the corner of her mouth, Li Zhibai thought she too was beginning to drift into errant thoughts.
Thatās not right.
Li Zhibai slightly shook her head.
Such strange thoughts should not be seen by others, especially not let Changāan find out.
As a serious and solemn teacher, why think of such things?
After taking a deep breath and slowly exhaling it, the appearance of the Sect Leader flashed through Li Zhibaiās mind, instantly dissipating any ambiguous colors in her heart.
Come to think of it, the Sect Leaderās name is indeed the one she preferred the most.
[Qing Jun.]
Qingjun Yalu.
Lord of Qingzhou.
God of Tianyi.
"This is the true One Foot Clear..." Li Zhibai softly said: "One Foot Qing."
She really admires this girl greatly.
Sigh.
A bit unfortunate.
Since who knows how long ago, perhaps after the Sect Leader firmly stabilized her cultivation in the Qiankun Realm, few knew her name, clearly an ideal Qing Jun, yet people only know Sect Leader Chaoyun.
Itās worth knowing that, under the burial of time, even a title like āImmortal Chaoyunā is no longer called by anyone because addressing such a being as Fairy is even considered disrespectful.
Fairies are so, let alone the actual name āShi Qingjun.ā
Such a god-like existence naturally cannot be called by name.
Is the Sect Leader a god?
Of course.
Li Zhibai thought perhaps the only one who could utter those three words in front of the Sect Leader would be the lady from the Demon Sect.
"..."
Li Zhibai looked toward the brightly lit opposite side of the lake, leaning against the railing, half bent.
"The closer to Qiankun, the more powerless one feels."
Just as the Sect Leader said, she has been stuck with one foot in the Qiankun Realm for a long time.
It seems the other half of the foot can never step across.
The opportunity for breakthrough is utterly unclear.
Li Zhibai has a feeling that this world and era will only allow the existence of two āQiankun,ā so she may never have the chance to call out that name.
"Such a pity, even though I really like it." She mumbled, suddenly feeling the windās direction was strange, and at the same time... a faint scent of wine lingered at her nose.
Li Zhibai froze for a moment, turned around, and then was stunned.
Only to see on the steps, a woman in light skirt holding a cup of wine slowly walking toward her, the fire stone light flickering at one side, silhouettes dimming.
Who else but the āLord of Qingzhouā she talks about?
āā
Wasnāt the Sect Leader playing clever cards with the girls downstairs?
How come she came up here?
Li Zhibaiās pupils trembled violently in her eyes, even for her, her spirit was extremely unstable at this moment... especially since she just spoke those words to herself, did the Sect Leader possibly not...
She was pondering when she saw Shi Qingjun take a few steps forward with the wine cup.
Li Zhibai actually involuntarily retreated a few steps.
"...?" Shi Qingjun looked at Li Zhibai, somewhat puzzled.
Whatās wrong?
Unlike Zhu Pingniang, she never really cared about Li Zhibai in the past, and hadnāt left any impression on her, coupled with the ordinary life environment now, even though Li Zhibai called her name in her heart, she had no intention of exploring.
Looking at the somewhat weak Daoist Nun, Shi Qingjun was a bit surprised.
It was the first time sheād seen Li Zhibai like this, knowing that she had met Li Zhibai more often in the past than Zhu Pingniang.
Li Zhibai should be accustomed to her presence by now.
Shi Qingjun thought it was because she heard that random, fragmented "likes" after coming up?
What likes.
Likes pollen too?
Or Xu Changāanās cooking skills.
But Shi Qingjun didnāt have much time to think because Li Zhibai had already regained composure, forced herself to calm, and respectfully bowed to her.
"Greetings to Sect Leader." Li Zhibai ignored the wine cup in Shi Qingjunās hand.
"Mm." Shi Qingjun nodded.
Although she, the empty-nest Sect Leader, wanting a talking companion was intended, Li Zhibai had been excluded, she sipping the wine given by the girls of Flower Moon Building.
This scene made Li Zhibaiās spirit flutter, but outwardly she remained composed.
A Sect Leader, thinking while drinking... itās the first time seeing this.
"Did you speak with Tong Jun?" Shi Qingjun asked.
"No." Li Zhibai shook her head, asking: "Should I inform Tong Jun?"
Shi Qingjun pondered.
She didnāt have any intention to conceal but seeing the nervous look of this young lady before her, she still said, "Itās up to you."
"Understood." Li Zhibai nodded.
Saying as such is the Sect Leader she was familiar with.
Leaving it to her means concealing it from Zhu Pingniang.
The atmosphere was a bit stiff.
Li Zhibai wanted to inquire if the Sect Leader specifically came up to see her for any command, but thinking of Shi Qingjunās changes, she didnāt speak.
Shi Qingjun actually had no issue, she happened to see Li Zhibai before, so she came to chat with her.
The two were both poor at words, so the atmosphere was akin to the fire stone one side of the cabin, dim and fleeting.
The surrounding filled with the intoxicating scent of wine, yet these two ladies fell into silence.
Shi Qingjun held the cup, gazing seriously at Li Zhibai by the railing.
Because even she had mostly seen the false Daoist Nun in a Daoist robe, seeing Li Zhibai now in this dress and small coat seemed quite novel, her gaze gliding over the fluffy decoration by Li Zhibaiās shoulder, slightly nodding.
"Itās very nice." she said.
Li Zhibai: "..."
What did she say?
Who was nice looking.
"The scenery of Beisang City is very beautiful," Li Zhibai looked toward the lively lights in the rain afar.
"Iām talking about you." Shi Qingjun surprised by Li Zhibaiās dullness.
Li Zhibai held her tongue, she didnāt consider herself dull, but at this moment wished she were.
What is the feeling when the admired lady praises your appearance?
Li Zhibai had never thought, but now she realized, when the Sect Leader plainly stated itās about her, she strangely felt calm.
"Itās the clothes from Tong Jun, if itās just me, itās only a Daoist robe." Li Zhibai said.
"Mm..." Shi Qingjun inspected Li Zhibai head to toe, commenting: "Nice as it is, somethingās missing."
Li Zhibai considered, asking: "Whatās missing?"
Shi Qingjun nodded, said: "Itās missing indeed, in the past Tong Jun often lingered with you, now I canāt see her, feels odd."
Li Zhibai sighed: "She has changed a lot now, but itās for the better."
Shi Qingjun nodded twice, then stated: "Itās my first time sipping wine other than Spiritual Liquid; this fruit wine is quite palatable."
As Shi Qingjun swirled the wine in her cup, Li Zhibai curiously heard a hint of "Want to try some?" in her words.
She paused for a while, said.
"Mu Yu Peak ladies drink mostly fruit wine too, itās quite common."
Li Zhibaiās brain felt a bit muddled now, could only slowly parse the meaning behind Sect Leaderās words.
Simplify it.
Her brain was somewhat overloaded now.
