Chapter 1199: Treating Him as a Backup Isn’t Bad Either!

Chapter 1199: Chapter 1199: Treating Him as a Backup Isn’t Bad Either!

Ling Yuqiu looked at Xia Wu, feeling quite helpless. Back in the day, their group of good friends, all young ladies, cultivated together and grew up together. But later, everyone found their own paths. Xia Wu, however, seldom returned to the Upper Three Realms after she left, and hadn’t kept in touch with them for quite a long time.

It had been many years since she last saw her.

But childhood friendship never fades, even after all these years, it remained in her thoughts.

Xia Wu chuckled lightly: "It’s all in the past. If I hadn’t let go, how could I have returned?"

Ling Yuqiu nodded: "It’s good to let go. We Spirit Cultivators have long lives. If we don’t find someone to share it with, it gets lonely and boring. You’ve long had to think this through. But why didn’t you return to Xia Li Island? Why did you come to Leiguang Island instead?"

"I’m here to handle some matters, and this time, I’m counting on you," Xia Wu said sincerely.

Ling Yuqiu glanced at her teasingly: "Rarely do you come to find me; forget about the trouble. I miss the days we spent together in the past. Since getting married, I haven’t found that pure time like back then. A Wu, we truly hope you can be well too. After so many years of drifting, it’s time to come back."

Xia Wu nodded: "Thank you, Yuqiu."

After exchanging pleasantries for a while longer, the two bid farewell.

Han Jing leaned on the doorway, smiling cheerfully when she saw Xia Wu return: "Sister A Wu, I just realized you have quite the good relations, what a pity."

Han Jing shook her head, lamenting that she loved the wrong person. Otherwise, with Xia Wu’s kindness and sincerity, given enough time, she would surely carve out her own world in the Upper Three Realms and find someone who would genuinely love her. Instead of self-exiling for years, wasting her life.

In the earlier years, Xia Wu’s cultivation hadn’t advanced much. But over the past few years, teaching disciples while cultivating, she had made significant progress.

"Alright, you ghost girl. Let me remind you, since you all arrived at Leiguang Island, in less than three days, perhaps even within a week, news about you will land on Lei Yibei’s desk. That’s why I suggested coming to Leiguang Island first. So, you might want to start thinking about how to convince Lei Yibei, and stop joking around with me!" Xia Wu poked her forehead.

Han Jing grasped Xia Wu’s shoulders with both hands, looking up at her and saying: "Sister A Wu, what do you think about me?"

Xia Wu was taken aback by her sudden question, stumbling a bit. Since Han Jing was half-leaning on Xia Wu to begin with, she nearly fell over but steadied herself. Looking at Xia Wu, whose face was flushed red, she blinked: "I say, Sister A Wu, I was just speaking casually. Don’t get so worked up!"

"Ahem" Xia Wu coughed lightly twice, reaching out to scratch her: "You cheeky little girl, you’ve even started planning for me!"

Han Jing quickly dodged with a laugh, promoting Xia Wu as she evaded: "Sister A Wu, I’m not kidding with you. Do you think my dad looks quite good? He used to be blind, wasted so many years with my unworthy mother, and even nearly died once. Now he finally has a fresh start, and his overall conditions aren’t bad. Why don’t you consider him? Of course, if you don’t fancy him, then forget it. I think you deserve better! But having him as a backup option wouldn’t hurt!"
