He would never allow anyone to come to hurt her, even if it was he himself. That just cannot happen.

The expression on Qing Ye Li’s face became gloomy for an instant.

But….. they have really not met for a very long time!

Night gradually descended.

Because of what happened to Qing Lan Fei, Qing Yu did not let Lou Jun Yao come over these days, but made him stay to accompany Mo Jing Yu, to prevent the man from trying anything in secret.

Qing Yu had also discreetly and openly tried to probe for information from Qing Luo Yan but it seemed like Qing Luo Yan did not know much about the Mind Free Peak as well, and neither did she know when the Mind Free Peak would come to open up.

Qing Luo Yan had only told her that when the Mind Free Peak appears, a strange phenomenon will manifest in the skies before it reveals itself.

That night, Qing Yu went to Qing Luo Yan’s chambers again to hypnotize her to sleep before walking back to her place. On her way back, she bumped into Cang Jian whom she had not seen for a long time.

“Grand Priest, it’s been quite a while since we’ve met.”

Cang Jian had clearly seen her as well but the colour of his face did not look too good, merely stiffening the edges of his lips in a faint smile before walking away.

It was thought he did not know how to face Qing Yu anymore.

Thinking back to how he had pushed Qing Yu to Qing Luo Yan’s side in order to save himself, he had not thought that Qing Yu would come out of it safe and sound, and even win Qing Luo Yan’s trust and favour.

As of that moment, he was just a reject abandoned by Qing Lou Yan, a Grand Priest with an empty title, where all those people who had once fawned upon him to win his favour all the time had come to distance themselves from him after discovering his current predicament, some of them even secretly ridiculing and sneering at him.

However esteemed and highly regarded he was in the past, he had inversely become just as down and out now.

Seeing the man’s figure slowly grow further, Qing Yu raised an eyebrow, the expression on his face indiscernible.

It was thought that what he was feeling right now must be even worse than death itself!

So used to a life of being revered by people everywhere, reduced to become someone that no one asked about in an instant. It was not just any ordinary disgust one would feel, but was the kind that was like a fish bone stuck in one’s throat, stubbornly stuck and refusing to go up or down, but could not find anyone to vent out to.

Ha, how could all of that be enough at all?

From the moment that he turned traitorous, he was destined to come to a bad end. All of this was merely just a simple appetizer.

Continuing to walk to her quarters, the two attendant girls standing at the door bowed slightly to her. “Miss Yu Qing.”

“Both of you can be dismissed. You do not need to be here to serve me. We are all in the same position so you do not need to be so respectful to me. I do not think I deserve it.” Qing Yu said with her lips curved up in a smile.
