n“Alright, I’ll definitely go visit when I leave the mountain. Who knows, I might bump into you on the way. But let me make this clear first. Don’t beat me up the moment I arrive.” Gong Ziliang laughed loudly as he said.

n

n“Don’t talk about this anymore. That was a mistake.”

n

nBai Chuxia’s face immediately flushed red.

n

nShe understood what Gong Ziliang was talking about. It was none other than that day at the Fire Cat Mountain, she had continuously attacked Gong Ziliang as soon as she entered the battle. Moreover… she had targeted Gong Ziliang’s lower body…

n

n“Hahaha, good, good, good. I won’t mention it. I’m leaving now.”

n

nGong Ziliang leaned forward slightly and looked at Bai Chuxia’s attractive eyes.

n

nBefore Bai Chuxia could react, Xu Fei could not sit still anymore. He directly went forward and placed his hand on Gong Ziliang’s shoulder.

n

nHe smiled and said, “Brother Liang, there’s a chance in the future. Look, it’s getting late. The Sect Master of the Profound Heaven Sect might be waiting for you. Hurry up and set off.”

n

nGong Ziliang looked at Xu Fei from the side and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly. He smiled comically and said, “Oh, Big Brother Xu Fei, which brand of vinegar do you usually drink?”

n

nXu Fei: “???”

n

n“What vinegar1?”

n

nXu Fei was stunned. What did this Gong Ziliang’s departure have to do with the brand of vinegar he was drinking?

n

n“Nothing, nothing. Hahaha!”

n

nGong Ziliang laughed loudly and did not turn around as he walked towards the nearest and highest mountain peak in Cloudray City. He waved his hand and said with a smile, “Everyone, we’ll meet again if we’re fated to!”

n

n“Alright, alright. Take care.” Xu Fei waved his hand and sent him off respectfully. Then, he whispered in his heart, “It’s best not to come. Otherwise, I feel like my Xia will be snatched away…”

n

nBai Chuxia also waved her hand and said, “Yes, I’m waiting for you!”

n

nHer heart jumped. She did not know what realm this special man would break through to the next time they met.

n

nThey had only known each other for two or three days, but he had already broken through from the seventh-stage Martial Body Realm to the second-stage Qi Refinement Realm. What realm would he reach next time they met?

n

nRegarding this, Bai Chuxia really did not dare to guess.

n

nThat was because she really could not see through this man.

n

nJust like that, Bai Chuxia, Xu Fei, and the others left Cloud Glow City and returned to Green Cloud City.

n

nAs for Gong Ziliang, he headed straight for the Profound Heaven Sect’s Mission Pavilion.

n

nWhen the little junior sister, Liu Yingying, who was in charge of the mission at the front desk of the Profound Heaven Sect’s Mission Pavilion, saw that Gong Ziliang had returned, she immediately waved her hand and leaned on the front stage to support her cute and petite face.

n

nShe chuckled and said, “Senior Brother Liang, looks like you’ve completed your third-grade mission well. You’re back so early.”

n

n“Sigh!”

n

nGong Ziliang followed and leaned on the front platform. He sighed deeply and said, “Don’t mention it. It’s a third-grade mission, but I almost died.”

n

n“Ah, this…” Liu Yingying hurriedly asked,” What’s wrong, Senior Brother? ”

n

nGong Ziliang: “It’s a long story.”

n

nLiu Yingying: “Then cut it short.”

n

nGong Ziliang became speechless.

n

nAfter Gong Ziliang sighed again, he told Liu Yingying about what he had discovered when he went down the mountain for the mission.

n

nHe trusted Liu Yingying. Without saying anything, just because her father was First Elder Liu of the Profound Heaven Sect…

n

nHearing Gong Ziliang’s words, Liu Yingying immediately refreshed her world view and said in surprise, “What! There’s such a thing?!”

n

nLiu Yingying was very shocked by the matter of the Hua Clan’s escort agency.

n

nMoreover, according to Gong Ziliang, it was very likely that there was a spy in the Profound Heaven Sect. When they were reviewing the mission back then, they did not notice this. After all, it was very normal for others to want to get their disciples’ protection on escort missions.

n

nThe abnormality was that the rewards of this mission were too rich and were higher than other third-grade missions.

n

nAccording to Gong Ziliang, there was a spy in the sect… Liu Yingying could not explain this clearly.

n

nIf there was something fishy about the mission, could it be… Elder Zhang?

n

nAlthough the Mission Pavilion was managed by Elder Zhang, this was impossible…

n

nLiu Yingying could not figure it out either, and she seemed to be lost in thought as she said, “Why don’t I tell First Elder Liu about this first?”

n

n“I think it’s fine. Just as I thought, I’ll have to trouble you and First Elder Liu on this matter. Oh right, remember to help me greet First Elder Liu.”

n

nGong Ziliang cupped his fists and said.

n

nHe definitely had to greet First Elder Liu.

n

nWhat status did First Elder Liu have? His status was only below the Sect Master of the Profound Heaven Sect, Xuan Guangzi. He was only below one person and above everyone else.

n

nAlthough he had a better relationship with his daughter, Liu Yingying, if he could get to know First Elder Liu well, wouldn’t all the benefits be easily obtained in the future?

n

nHehehe…

n

nWhen he thought of this, Gong Ziliang felt happy.

n

n“Of course. I dare to guarantee that if he sees you, he will definitely be shocked.”

n

nLiu Yingying sized up Gong Ziliang and revealed a strange smile, but there were some cute elements in it. She had some thoughts in her mind.

n

n“Ah? He still remembers an outer sect disciple like me.”

n

nGong Ziliang smiled lightly. This was not false at all.

n

nFirst Elder Liu was below only one person, and Gong Ziliang was indeed an outer sect disciple among the tens of thousands of disciples. How could he possibly remember such a small disciple?

n

nLiu Yingying smiled lightly and pointed at Gong Ziliang, “Before you went down the mountain for the mission, you were at the sixth-stage Martial Body Realm. In just a few days, you actually reached the Qi Refinement Realm. If I’m not wrong, this spiritual qi fluctuation is at the second-stage Qi Refinement Realm.”

n

n“Look, in the entire Profound Heaven Sect, even Sect Master Xuan Guangzi is unable to advance by several stages in a few days.”

n

n“You, an outer sect disciple, managed to do it.”

n

n“Speak! What did you do when you went down the mountain for this mission? Tell me the truth!”

n

nAs Liu Yingying spoke, she leaned closer to Gong Ziliang. Her watery and clear eyes stared at Gong Ziliang, causing him to feel a little uncomfortable.

n

nAfter all, being stared at by such a beautiful and cute girl with a good figure, curvy front, small waist, and graceful long legs…

n

nWhen he looked down, it was indeed very smooth and deep…

n

n‘Tsk, tsk, tsk. Not bad, not bad. Ah, no, I mean, how inappropriate is this in the Mission Pavilion!’

n

nHowever, being asked such a question, Gong Ziliang leaned back slightly and smiled awkwardly. “Ah, that… Junior Sister Yingying, you… I saw your… cleavage.”

n

nLiu Yingying was stunned for a second before she suddenly realized that something was wrong. She immediately stood up and grabbed the collar of her clothes with both hands. She pretended to be calm and said, “Tell me, tell me. Tell me what kind of opportunity you encountered when you went down the mountain this time!”

n

nLiu Yingying’s heart beat rapidly. She had been so focused on interrogating Senior Brother Gong Ziliang that she had forgotten to button her shirt properly.

n

nThis was… too careless. This was the first time a man had seen that place…

n

nThis…

n

nHmph! This stupid Senior Brother!
