Novel Full Chapter 680 The great Elder
Long Qingyi walked calmly through the gardens of the Cosmic Void Sect.
With Rou’er under the elder’s escort, he was free to move about the sect without restraints, something he greatly appreciated at that
moment.
Majestic pavilions rose up around him, and a heavy sigh escaped his lips as he surveyed the landscape.
His strength had grown to an absurd level, to a degree that even he had difficulty calculating precisely.
However, there was no one worthy enough to face him and force him to demonstrate this new power.
Honestly, even among those of the same level in lineage and cultivation, it would be difficult to find someone capable of truly testing his limits.
If Bai Hu Lie were still in the sect, he would have a good training partner by his side, but in the end, all he could do was sigh at that frustrating reality.
Upon returning to the Cosmic Dawn Sect, perhaps he could train a bit and finally put his new power to the test.
He was especially curious to see how much Chen Wei had evolved, and he also intended to accept a more challenging mission, something that would truly push his body to the limit.
Finally, Qingyi simply continued his leisurely walk, entering a region where even the sect’s disciples would be barred without prior permission: the sector where the elders’ pavilions stood.
Some guards even moved to stop him, but upon recognizing his identity, they stepped back in silence, limiting themselves to a discreet nod.
Given his relationship with Xue Hua, it was likely he was there to visit the Grand Elder.
Returning the guards’ greeting, Qingyi continued through the area, and after a few more minutes of walking, he stopped before a spacious and luxurious mansion.
The place was deserted, with no guards or servants in sight. Only the distant chirping of birds and the soft rustling of the trees broke the silence.
“Come in.” A voice echoed in his mind, aged and laden with evident weariness.
Qingyi obeyed without hesitation, entering the silent mansion as his eyes scanned every corner, the density of Qi intensifying with every step he took.
It was a peculiar place, and he could feel the powerful soul force enveloping him, coupled with the subtle spatial fluctuations that warped the air around him.
Upon reaching the golden door leading into the mansion, he paused for just an instant.
A long crackling sound echoed before the door opened on its own.
He crossed the threshold and found himself in a spacious living room, where an aged-looking man, dressed in black robes, was reclining on a sofa with his eyes fixed on him.
The man was neither truly old nor ugly, sporting a face in his late middle age, deep-set eyes, and noble, masculine features.
For women who appreciated aged wine, he would likely be a true dream come true.
“Junior Long Qingyi greets the great elder!” He bowed slightly, clasping his fists in a sign of respect.
“Ah… Great Elder, is it?” The elder let out a hearty laugh, gesturing for Qingyi to take a seat on the sofa in front of him. “I thought you’d call
23:56 –
me father-in-law, since black dragons are notoriously pretentious. I just wonder what you did to win my daughter over like that.”
“It was more Rou’er than me, great elder.” Qingyi smiled as he settled into the couch. “That girl knows exactly how to praise her big brother.”
The words drew another laugh from the elder, this time tinged with clear bitterness.
“Yes… The leader of the Cosmic Dawn Sect is lucky to have such a sweet daughter.” The old man sighed, a hint of envy showing in his voice. “Xue Hua isn’t a bad girl, but… well… she takes after her mother.”
2/5
Qingyi didn’t respond immediately, merely watching him with a curious gaze as he waited for him to continue.
“From what she told me about you, I shouldn’t be receiving such a warm welcome…”
“No…” The bitterness on the great elder’s face deepened even further, etching itself into his features.
In any other situation, such words would have led him to unleash his aura and force that junior to the ground to teach him to watch his tongue, but this wasn’t the kind of conversation they were having.
“I’m just a greedy old man, and that’s why I destroyed my relationship with her.” The elder rose from the sofa and walked to a window, his hands clasped behind his back, his gaze carrying a melancholic depth.
His eyes surveyed the sect that stretched out before him, the very one he had helped raise to its current level, at the height of its existence, reaching heights that didn’t even exist in the times when his ancestor lived.
“If you wish to marry her, you will have all the support I can offer, and I believe her mother, should she ever come to visit us, will do the same.” The great elder turned to Qingyi with a serene expression. “She is in the room upstairs, but she will not accompany you to the
Cosmic Dawn Sect. She still needs to establish the foundation of her soul, and only our sect possesses the proper training to handle a soul as powerful as hers.”
There was sincere pain in the old man’s voice.
It was only natural, after all.
He had made a mistake in the past, and now his beloved daughter
would end up leaving him for good.
Xue Hua herself had made it clear that she intended to follow Qingyi
and leave the Cosmic Void Sect behind.
Well, what else could he do but support her?
He had already lived for over a hundred thousand years, while his
daughter was barely past twenty.
It was up to him to give her time to travel and learn, whether on her
own or alongside the man she loved.
Noticing Qingyi’s gaze as he made his way to the upper floor, the elder merely sighed and let a resigned smile escape.
Young men brimming with virility really did need to enjoy life while they could.
Ignoring the old man, Qingyi quickened his pace, letting himself be guided by Xue Hua’s gentle aura to her room.
As he opened the door, a smile spread across his lips at the sight
before him. Xue Hua was lying on the bed with a pensive gaze lost on the ceiling, her full breasts exposed to the air, her body covered by nothing but elegant black lingerie that contrasted beautifully with her
pale skin.
“Uh?” She turned her face toward him, sensing his approach.
“Is it time for you to leave?” she asked as Qingyi closed the door
behind him.
“Yes…” He smiled, settling onto the bed beside her.
One of his hands immediately slid down over her full breasts, squeezing firmly, his fingers almost able to close completely around the soft orbs, falling just a few centimeters short of the feat.
He massaged the firm, supple flesh, feeling it yield deliciously under
the pressure of his fingers, drawing a soft moan from Xue Hua’s lips as she arched her body slightly against his touch.
He would be leaving soon, but there was still time for a quickie, right?
