Chapter 1553: Chapter 1651: Past Resentments and Grudges
Under the encirclement of the Hundred Flowers Sword, Zhao Tingfang was also unable to escape for a moment, feeling quite anxious.
Just at this time, Mei Yingxue and several second-generation disciples of Heavenly Fragrance Valley arrived one after another, surrounding Lin Qishuang completely.
“It’s you!” Those second-generation disciples of Heavenly Fragrance Valley all showed shocked expressions, clearly recognizing Lin Qishuang.
In Heavenly Fragrance Valley, the seniority naturally ranks highest with Liang Zhiyin, followed by Lu Wenjin, Shen Xingzhu, and other second-generation disciples, then Mei Yingxue and Zhao Tingfang representing the next generation, and below them the young disciples who have joined the valley less than ten years ago.
Lin Qishuang looked at those second-generation disciples of Heavenly Fragrance Valley, wearing a smile that was not quite a smile.
“It seems that the name Lin Qishuang hasn’t completely disappeared from Heavenly Fragrance Valley. There are still people who remember me,” Lin Qishuang said with a hint of self-mockery.
“Lin Qishuang?” Mei Yingxue’s expression changed, looking surprisingly at the woman in front of her.
“I didn’t expect you to still be alive!” The expressions of the few second-generation disciples were somewhat solemn, even unpleasant.
“Haha, if Liang Zhiyin isn’t dead, how could I die before her?” Lin Qishuang laughed, her eyes drifting unintentionally toward another direction.
“You are the sinner of Heavenly Fragrance, Lin Qishuang?” Mei Yingxue asked.
Upon hearing this, Lin Qishuang glanced at Mei Yingxue and then burst out laughing: “Sinner of Heavenly Fragrance? Is that what Liang Zhiyin calls me to you juniors? But that’s not wrong, the victor is king and loser the bandit. It’s fair to be labeled a sinner of Heavenly Fragrance as a loser.”
Mei Yingxue frowned deeply; she knew the name Lin Qishuang, but it was a name from long ago. During the years she had been in the valley, only Liang Zhiyin had mentioned it a few times, but never elaborated.
After all, like Zhao Tingfang, Mei Yingxue was only a third-generation disciple in Heavenly Fragrance Valley, not considered very senior.
But it was different for those second-generation disciples; they were disciples taken in by Liang Zhiyin herself. Thus, they had some understanding of the valley’s past affairs, and could even say they had personally experienced those past events.
Because they knew who Lin Qishuang was, and what had happened in the past, these second-generation disciples all felt heavy-hearted.
Lin Qishuang’s return at this time was undoubtedly a heavy blow to Heavenly Fragrance Valley.
“Where is Liang Zhiyin? Is she not coming out? If she doesn’t show soon, I won’t mind killing everyone here,” Lin Qishuang’s voice thundered around, her tone conveying strong oppression, which overwhelmed many disciples of Heavenly Fragrance Valley.
“Insolence!” Mei Yingxue shouted, her Plum Blossom Umbrella swinging straight toward Lin Qishuang’s face.
The other second-generation disciples also made their move simultaneously, knowing that Lin Qishuang was likely even more formidable than before, but this place was Heavenly Fragrance Valley, and there was no reason to allow Lin Qishuang to misbehave here.
“Seeking death!” Lin Qishuang took a step forward, and a red lotus blossomed beneath her feet.
Boom!!!
As the red lotus flower bloomed, it seemed as if countless arms extended from within it, blasting Mei Yingxue and the other second-generation disciples away.
“How is this possible? She actually succeeded in mastering this Martial Art?” One second-generation disciple said with a face full of horror.
Lin Qishuang, with red lotuses under her feet and countless arms swirling behind her, looked as terrifying as a Demon.
The female disciples of Heavenly Fragrance Valley, having never seen such a scene before, were all too scared to approach.
It was a joke; even Mei Yingxue and several martial uncles and martial grandmasters couldn’t match this person, let alone these new disciples who had joined not long ago. Rashly confronting her meant nothing but death.
“Lin Qishuang, even if you have returned, Heavenly Fragrance Valley will not allow you to run rampant!” Lu Wenjin shouted loudly.
“You are wrong. I did not come back to run rampant, but to take over Heavenly Fragrance Valley. Liang Zhiyin is not qualified to sit in the position of Valley Master,” Lin Qishuang shook her head and said.
“What?” Everyone was greatly shocked upon hearing this; Lin Qishuang actually wanted to seize the position of Valley Master.
“Who exactly is she?” Mei Yingxue turned to Shen Xingzhu beside her and asked.
Shen Xingzhu’s breathing was slightly rapid as he said in a deep voice, “She is the Junior Sister of Valley Master Liang, and can also be considered our Martial Uncle.”
Upon hearing this, Mei Yingxue recalled a past secret of Heavenly Fragrance Valley, which spoke of a time when Liang Zhiyin was not yet Valley Master, and was known alongside a Junior Sister named Lin Qishuang as the Heavenly Fragrance Pair Uniques.
Later, as the old Valley Master was about to abdicate, it was decided that the position would be handed over to either Liang Zhiyin or Lin Qishuang, but exactly to whom required the two of them to compete for it.
This competition process was unknown to Mei Yingxue, as nobody talked about it, nor was it recorded in any books, not even the second-generation disciples like Lu Wenjin or Shen Xingzhu would speak of it.
However, afterwards, Lin Qishuang seemed to have been expelled from Heavenly Fragrance Valley, and thereafter her life or death was unknown. Naturally, the position of Valley Master then fell into the hands of Liang Zhiyin.
After many years, Lin Qishuang had come back, not only still alive but her strength had also greatly increased from before.
Obviously, the incidents of the past were not simple; otherwise, Lin Qishuang would not have returned with such fury.
“Senior Sister, won’t you appear now?” Lin Qishuang laughed loudly, and with a palm strike, attacked towards Mei Yingxue’s side.
“Alas.” With a light sigh, Liang Zhiyin finally appeared in front of Mei Yingxue. With a wave of her sleeve, she neutralized the force of Lin Qishuang’s palm strike.
“Valley Master!” Mei Yingxue and others exclaimed in surprise upon seeing Liang Zhiyin appear.
Liang Zhiyin shook her head, signaling them not to talk, while she herself watched Lin Qishuang with a complex expression.
“Ah, Senior Sister, you truly haven’t changed at all, still the same as in the old days. Your appearance has not altered in the slightest, which really makes me, your Junior Sister, jealous,” Lin Qishuang said with a laugh. To those unaware, they might even think that Lin Qishuang and Liang Zhiyin were close sisters.
“Junior Sister Lin, why have you returned?” Liang Zhiyin said, her tone relatively calm as she seemed not too surprised by Lin Qishuang’s sudden return.
Lin Qishuang smiled charmingly: “Of course, I came back to visit you, Senior Sister, and to see if this Heavenly Fragrance Valley of old resembles in any part its former self.”
Pausing briefly, the smile on Lin Qishuang’s face completely vanished, replaced by an utterly cold and gloomy murderous intent: “Also, to bid you, Senior Sister, farewell.”
On a cliff far away, Fang Lin and Dugu Nian came side by side, watching the scene unfolding within Heavenly Fragrance Valley from afar.
“Really not going to interfere?” Dugu Nian looked at Fang Lin and asked softly.
Fang Lin was silent for a moment, then shook his head: “This is Heavenly Fragrance Valley’s own affair. We are outsiders and need not intervene.”
“If we do not intervene, I’m afraid many in Heavenly Fragrance Valley will die tonight. That Lin Qishuang has already reached the Spirit Source Realm,” Dugu Nian said.
Fang Lin sighed lightly, still shaking his head.
