“Could Your Highness let me know who he is?” Bai Qianxue asked quietly, his eyes full of entreaty.

Hua Qiyue started. Her Master, Tianpi, was from 10,000 years ago. Even if she had revealed his name, he would not know him.

“I’m sorry. My Master has instructed me to keep his identity a secret. All I know is that he’s an infinitely powerful Qi Artist. But... ”

Hua Qiyue became quiet for a while. “But now, he is missing.”

Bai Qianxue showed his great surprise and disbelief, but soon recovered his tranquil expression. He asked tenderly, “Your Highness, do you need us to help locate him?”

“Yes, City Master Bai. Take it that I owe you a favor. Please help me locate Yun Shimo and the boy with him. Of course, the person I want to find most is Tianci, not Yun Shimo.” With these words, Hua Qiyue took out a small portrait scroll and unfurled it. On it was the face of a boy with a radiant, innocent smile—Tianci.

Bai Qianxue took it over in his hands, his silvery hair drifting gently. A strange expression flashed across his handsome eyes and brows.

“Is this boy your legendary adopted son, Your Highness?”

“Yes. He’s my adopted son, Tianci. I’m less concerned about Yun Shimo. The most important person is the boy,” Hua Qiyue said quietly.

Bai Qianxue nodded. “We will try our best to locate him, Miss.”

“Thank you, City Master. If you have anything you’d like me to do, I will try my very best to accomplish it!” Hua Qiyue cupped her fists, speaking gratefully.

Ji Feng and the rest kept silent. For some reason, they all felt in their hearts that Tianci was more important than Yun Shimo.

Probably they had that impression when Hua Qiyue tried all ways to seek medical help from Yun Shimo for Tianci’s sake.

“If Your Highness doesn’t mind, we will talk about runes. I think Your Highness knows that Spirit Heaven City is a city built by me and my father with all our collected crystals.”

Bai Qianxue said quietly.

Hua Qiyue nodded. “Do you want to learn runes, City Master Bai?”

“Indeed.”

“Learning runes, according to my Master, will require talent and endurance.” Hua Qiyue paused momentarily. Tianpi had not prohibited her from teaching others runes.

However, Hua Qiyue could not quite determine if Bai Qianxue was a friend or a foe. She could, however, still reveal the basics about runes.

“I will see if I can accept these basic runes first. If Your Highness feels that rune art cannot be imparted to outsiders, then pretend that I have said nothing.”

Bai Qianxue said with a smile.

Hua Qiyue raised her brows slightly. Xuanji and Bai Qianxue were good friends. And he had specially refined a Top-grade Magic Pellet for her. It was exceptionally difficult to refine such a pill.

Sometimes, if the alchemist had not mastered the procedure, he would explode and die.

Since Bai Qianxue had treated her so well, Hua Qiyue had nothing more to fear.

“You make it sound too serious, City Master Bai. Thanks to City Master’s Top-grade Magic Pellet, I’ve broken through the bottleneck at the lower level of Round Sun. My Master did not stipulate that I can’t impart my rune art to outsiders. Since we are all friends, I can just teach all of you the basics first. Anyone who feels it suitable for himself can practice it.”

Hua Qiyue said with a smile. Bai Qianxue heard her and instantly breathed a sigh of relief.

Hua Qiyue immediately wrote out the basic runes for everyone to see.

Those without talent would feel their head bloated and dizzy in one glance. They could not read it again.

Ji Jing, Huangfu Xuan and Ji Feng all glanced at the runes and felt that they could not go on looking.

Only Xuanji and Bai Qianxue could.

Hua Qiyue was secretly astounded. She did not expect Xuanji and Bai Qianxue to have such high comprehensions.

However, when Xuanji went on to the second line, he volunteered to give up. According to him, he was not suited to practice the art.

Therefore, among those present, only Bai Qianxue was suited to learning the art. Hua Qiyue did not hide anything, immediately writing out all the remaining runes for Bai Qianxue.

“City Master Bai, I’m sure you can comprehend everything. If you don’t trust that person, don’t pass on this art to him.” Hua Qiyue conveyed her instructions to him. Bai Qianxue nodded and promised.

They continued to chat for a while. Bai Qianxue gave Hua Qiyue a Supreme Token before the company took their leave.

Ji Feng’s face did not look too happy and Huangfu Xuan kept voicing his regrets.

Hua Qiyue knew that they were regretting not being able to master rune art. She gave a gentle smile and comforted them. “Don’t take it too much to heart. Rune art isn’t for everyone. Those not gifted in rune art can do well in Qi Art as well.”

Ji Jing kept shaking her head with a bitter face. “Sister Qiyue, I have no achievement in Qi Art. And no talents in rune art. Oh, what a failure I am!”

“You’re a girl. Why do you need to be so outstanding?” Ji Feng had overcome his unhappiness. He smiled and was teasing his sister.

“Brother, how can you say that, humph!” Ji Jing did not felt too good about it. Hua Qiyue was far superior to her in everything.

But she thought for a while and realized that few women were more powerful than Hua Qiyue. Her heart began to redress the imbalance.

Hua Qiyue and her friends left Bai’s Mansion and walked into Spirit Heaven Mountain. Hua Qiyue could clearly sense someone tailing them.

At about 50 kilometers away from the Ten Thousand Spirit Cave, Hua Qiyue finally stopped. “Which supreme master has been following us? Please reveal yourself.”

Xuanji said quietly.

Everyone knew that that person ought to be Hua Mengshi.

Sure enough, from among the trees on the side, Hua Mengshi and her two Qi Art maidservants streaked out.

Hua Qiyue raised her brows. She did not expect her to have followed them, unable to take things lying down. She really did not wish to waste her time on this woman.

“Second Sister, I didn’t expect your Qi Art to have improved so much in the past months. Do you know how worried Father and Grandma are about you?”

Hua Qiyue frowned. Hua Mengshi was doing well and yet she did not write her family a letter.

Hua Mengshi gave a cold snort, her eyes full of hate. “Hua Qiyue, if it weren’t for you, I would never have ended up in the doldrums. At the Green Mountain Temple, I’ve vowed to kill you to avenge my mother!”

This was Hua Qiyue’s family affair. Yet even Ji Feng and the rest felt an impulse to reprimand Hua Mengshi.

Hua Qiyue waved her hand. “Brother Ji, this is my family affair. Please wait for me over on the other side.”

In other words, she was asking them not to interfere.

Ji Feng and the rest could only respect her decision. They retreated dozens of steps, waiting quietly for Hua Qiyue to resolve her problem.

“Hua Mengshi, Second Madame was killed by Her Majesty. Surely you won’t be so stupid as to think I’m the one who sent assassins to kill her?” Hua Qiyue shook her head, her eyes full of disappointment. “You were all trying to push me down the precipice, to kill me... Grandma was merciful enough to keep you from the prison! You’re now like a fish taking to the waters, yet you still haven’t written home!”

Hua Mengshi stared at Hua Qiyue contemptuously. “With a b*tch like you, would they remember me? Father used to treat me as the apple of his eyes, but you... I won’t speak about the past. Hua Qiyue, it’s been a few months. You’re now even more famous than before. Let’s fight it out!”

Hua Mengshi was now the adopted daughter of the Murong Family. Naturally, she would not remember her birth and the place which had nurtured her. After all, since Second Madame’s death, there had been nothing left for her to yearn for in Hua’s Mansion.

What she needed to do now was to keep getting stronger, to trample Hua Qiyue spitefully under her feet!

From goodness knows when, Hua Mengshi had only one purpose—to defeat Hua Qiyue.

Right now, she had meet with Hua Qiyue again. Of course, she could not miss this chance! Even though Hua Qiyue had retracted her anima energy and not allowed her to detect her Qi Art level, Hua Mengshi still firmly believed that Hua Qiyue could not improved as rapidly as she did!

In the past, Hua Qiyue had relied on spirit medicines. But Qi Artists usually found it hard to progress in the later stages.

Therefore, Hua Mengshi firmly believed that Hua Qiyue could not have surpassed her! After all, the present Hua Mengshi had enough confidence to kill her.

However, she did not do that because of her companions. But when she decided to come, she was already prepared.

“Does Second Sister really want to rip apart our pretences of cordiality? You haven’t challenged me before the City Master because you don’t want to ruin your kind, rabbit-like image, eh?” Hua Qiyue remarked with cold sarcasm. Her jade-like fingers caressed her black hair at her bosom gently.

She could sense that, other than Hua Mengshi and her two maidservants, someone else was setting up a formation nearby.

Oh, for Hua Qiyue, setting up an array was the easiest thing to do. And yet they wanted to do her in with this art? They had gravely miscalculated.

“Humph, don’t think just because of your companions, I will be afraid of you. Hua Qiyue, let’s wager. If you lose, detonate yourself before me! If I lose, I will do the same before you!”

Hua Mengshi remarked coldly.

The face color of the two maidservants with her changed slightly.

Hua Mengshi was said to be the most gifted woman in Spirit Heaven City. She was also the topmost talent in the Murong Family of Yuewu Kingdom.

However, even Hua Mengshi had made such a vow. It seemed to them that the other woman was not kind too.

“Fine, I promise!” Hua Qiyue said quietly.

She slowly removed the Qi shield around her body, causing the Qi aura around her to erupt!

“You, too, are in the lower level of Round Sun?” Hua Mengshi stared quite incredulously at Hua Qiyue.

Hua Qiyue looked at her quietly. To be honest, she really did not want to fight Hua Mengshi. But this woman was such a nuisance.

Hua Qiyue did not know why she had left Green Mountain Temple. Hua Mengshi had not explained it to her, nor could Hua Qiyue force her to tell.

“Let’s determine victory or defeat in one move!” Hua Qiyue was too lazy to continue tussling with her. She said this quietly.

“Outrageous! How dare you speak to our Second Miss like that!”

Hua Mengshi was older than Murong Zhen’er and called herself “Second Miss.” But Murong Zhen’er really looked down on her and would not like to be called anything other than “Second Miss” as well.

“All of you, retreat!” Hua Mengshi’s countenance became somewhat sterner. If Hua Qiyue’s Qi Art level was lower than hers, she would still be brimming with confidence. But...

However, she had inherited the strongest arts from the Murong Family! No matter what, she could not lose to someone else at the same level.

When she thought of this, Hua Mengshi’s confidence started to overflow. “Great. You’re very audacious! Please don’t blame me for being merciless, Elder Sister!”

“Don’t call me audacious. You, too, are audacious. Second Sister, you’d better take care!” Hua Qiyue gave a gentle grin.

She stared at Hua Mengshi’s lovely, alluring, water-drenched eyes, giving a low bellow. “Spirit Summoning Art, Lvl 2!”

Hua Qiyue’s Spirit Summoning Art had reached the fifth level. Under normal circumstances, she could just look into her opponent’s eyes and make the other party remain still!
