Chapter 882: Fu Tianchou

A youth who looked no more than seventeen or eighteen years old!

How could he be this remarkable?!

To actually be able to intimidate the Left Thousand Households Officer?

Fu Tianchou’s gaze was sharp and could see everything clearly.

The expression and gaze of the Left Thousand Households Officer towards Ding Ling clearly contained three parts awe and seven parts admiration. It was obvious that the two had crossed paths before, and the Left Thousand Households Officer had lost!

“I don’t know, Hero Ding, who is your master? Where does your family reside?”

“What I’ve learned is quite miscellaneous; it’s hard to explain in a short while.”

Ding Ling smiled and said:

“This isn’t the place for idle talk. Predecessor, why not follow me out of the palace and then we’ll talk?”

“I apologize.”

Fu Tianchou awkwardly laughed: “I was a little confused for a moment. Let’s talk after we get out.”

Ding Ling then stepped forward and grabbed Fu Tianchou by the arm, saying to the Left Thousand Households Officer:

“Left Thousand Households Officer, please stay close to me.”

“Alright.”

The Left Thousand Households Officer pointed at the other guards at the entrance of the Celestial Prison, who were frozen in place, unable to move:

“What about these people?”

“When the time comes, they will be able to move freely. The Left Thousand Households Officer needn’t worry.”

With Ding Ling’s words, he was already swiftly carrying Fu Tianchou like a gust of wind and floated far ahead.

The Left Thousand Households Officer hurriedly employed his lightweight body technique to follow closely.

However, even with all his might, he couldn’t catch up to Ding Ling, always maintaining a not-too-near and not-too-far distance.

Especially seeing countless Embroidered Guards and soldiers all rendered motionless along the way, he was immensely shocked.

Ding Ling had come all this way, in silence, yet immobilized so many masters!

No abnormal sound had come through.

This showed Ding Ling’s movements were swift, secretive, and unpredictable!

Fu Tianchou also saw all this, and couldn’t help but secretly admire, thinking:

“Does the sect of Qingfeng and Yuechi have such a master?! How come they never mentioned it? It seems highly likely that he’s a young hero wandering Jianghu? By chance, he met Qingfeng and them?!”

In his heart lake, waves surged.

Especially as Ding Ling held him, he was able to pass through myriad troops like smoke, making him amazed like he’s witnessing a celestial being:

“Such lightweight body technique, like I’ve never seen or heard before. This young hero is truly remarkable. Once we’re out of Chang’an, I must ask clearly.”

Fu Tianchou thought so, his heart burning with passion.

Because Ding Ling was this remarkable.

If he helped sweep the Capital City clean of the evildoers, wouldn’t Jiuzhou be able to restore its peace faster?

With this thought.

He couldn’t hold back his desire to speak.

Especially upon seeing Ding Ling holding him, leaping clean over the tall white wall like a light leaf falling outside Chang’an City, even before landing, he couldn’t wait to share his thoughts.

Finally, seeming to realize his impulsiveness, he flushed red and sighed:

“The nation is in ruin, and its survival hangs by a thread. I, as an elder, worry for the country and its people, forgive my overstep, Hero.”

Ding Ling smiled without committing.

“Hero Ding.”

Fu Tianchou solemnly said:

“The current court is already beyond saving, it must be cured by cutting out the gangrene, only by severing a limb can it survive! Otherwise, the fall of Jiuzhou is not far away.”

He spoke with heartache:

“The Grand National Preceptor’s demonic words deceive the masses, my multiple remonstrations were all in vain, instead I was labeled a traitor and a female corrupt official! It truly infuriates me!”

As he spoke, he gazed at Ding Ling with bright eyes, his old face etched with hope:

“It’s said that it’s easy to gather a thousand troops but hard to find a true general. Talents like Hero Ding’s are rare even in a hundred years and it’s the perfect time to serve the nation. If Hero Ding assists in clearing out the evildoers in the court, I will surely recommend Hero Ding to His Majesty…”

He was about to say more.

But Ding Ling interrupted him:

“We have arrived.”

Ding Ling had already landed in front of Fu Qingfeng and Fu Yuechi, holding onto Fu Tianchou.

The two girls, upon seeing Fu Tianchou, were filled with joyous surprise, lifting their visors and jumping off their horses to rush towards Fu Tianchou:

“Dad!”

“Qingfeng, Yuechi.”

Fu Tianchou also returned from his impassioned mood, turning to see it was indeed his daughters, and couldn’t help but joyously advance to embrace them.

The three of them reunited months after being apart.

The hardship during this time, each day they were at risk of permanent separation by life and death, the tale was too complex for a few words!

After a brief conversation.

Seeing more and more onlookers gathering.

The three of them turned to Ding Ling.

Just at that moment, the Left Thousand Households Officer hurriedly arrived, and Ding Ling said:

“Mount up.”

Ding Ling leapt onto the Qilin Horse.

Fu Qingfeng and Fu Yuechi shared one horse.

The Left Thousand Households Officer and Fu Tianchou shared another.

The three of them mounted their horses and headed straight to the northern Capital City.

After they left.

Watching their retreating figures.

The onlookers couldn’t help but start discussing:

“Did you hear what that beggar-like person called those two beauties just now?”

“Qingfeng, Yuechi! It’s probably Fu Qingfeng and Fu Yuechi. No wonder they look so beautiful. Turns out to be these two great beauties!”

A player spoke loudly:

“The most crucial thing is that Fu Qingfeng indeed looks exactly like Nie Xiaoqian!! Oh my god. Has Ding Ling captured the hearts of two more beauties?!”

A male player, unwilling to give up, shouted:

“I was even planning to wait at the scene of the story at Righteous Qi Manor, now it seems hopeless. No chance with Nie Xiaoqian, and now even with these two, it’s hopeless!”

“Nie Xiaoqian is a ghost. Her methods are unfathomable, and with her lingering, we new players will most likely end up having our Yang Qi sucked dry by the Thousand-Year Tree Demon! But Fu Qingfeng and Fu Yuechi are different, being human, the risk is much lower. Alas, they’ve followed Ding Ling, we’ll never have a chance!”

…

Among the Ascenders, a girl in white flowing like the wind, barefoot and ethereal, seemed to hear the players’ conversation and turned her head.

She was as beautiful as a dream, her beauty no less than Fu Qingfeng and Fu Yuechi.

She approached one of the male players, softly saying:

“Just now, was that the Immortal Realm Emperor from the Historical Plane, the unrivaled peerless strongman Ding Ling?”

“That’s right.”

The male player instinctively replied, but upon seeing the girl’s face, his eye twitched and he chuckled dryly:

“It’s Wanwan from the Yinkui Sect, what an honor.”

He pointed towards the place where Ding Ling had disappeared:

“The handsome young lad riding alone on one horse just now was Ding Ling.”

“Oh?”

Wanwan seemed to ponder.

She was thinking.

If she could get Ding Ling’s support.

Could she quickly become stronger and then kill Shi Feixuan?

She and Shi Feixuan had been scheming and fighting in the lower realms for years, long since becoming sworn enemies, it was either her or Shi Feixuan!

But unfortunately.

They have always been evenly matched, and with the help of some players, Shi Feixuan repeatedly gained the upper hand.
