Above the sky, accompanied by the splitting of air currents on both sides.

It is an easy matter to overlook the beautiful scenery of the mountains and rivers below.

Zhao Huai travels by sword, unfazed by honor and disgrace, heading northward, just passing by the Spiritual Mountains.

The continuous mountain range undulates, with verdant peaks, mortals can hardly imagine the world hidden within.

However, Zhao Huai knows that the entire Spiritual Mountains are enveloped by an ancient giant formation, which seems to be surrounded by mountains on the surface, but it is actually a Blessed Land.

He’s just passing through the sky above the Spiritual Mountains, without stopping.

Zhao Huai increases his speed with just a glance.

Suddenly, several streaks of light flew out of the formation in the spiritual mountains, gliding through the sky, attracting Zhao Huai’s attention.

He guessed that they should be sect disciples coming out of the Spiritual Mountains; nowadays, it’s not rare for many sect disciples to descend from the mountains.

The streaks of light quickly passed through the airspace where Zhao Huai was, and it seemed that the other party had also noticed Zhao Huai.

The speed of travel actually slowed down.

Zhao Huai was also surprised, secretly thinking.

Could it be there’s an acquaintance?

“Young Master Zhao, it’s been a long time.”

Soon, a blue streak of light approached Zhao Huai; even before seeing the person, a delicate, soft voice already entered Zhao Huai’s ears.

“Who are you?”

Seeing that they had stopped their journey, Zhao Huai also stopped and asked in confusion.

“It’s me. Do you not recognize me after just over a year?”

A slender and charming figure emerged in front of him, revealing a light blue long skirt. 𝑓𝓇𝘦𝘦𝔀𝓮𝒷𝘯𝓸𝓋𝓮𝘭.𝓬𝓸𝘮

It was a fairy-like woman with exquisite features, pure and white as snow, with long eyelashes, attractive eyes, and a dust-free temperament, like a fairy from the Ninth Heaven.

Upon seeing the face of the person, Zhao Huai’s face was slightly surprised.

“Exquisite Fairy, it’s actually you.”

The person in front of him was the Exquisite Palace Fairy, Qiu Yueqing.

A year ago, the master of the Exquisite Palace had sent her to be Zhao Huai’s guardian on his journey, but when they encountered the Devil Sect’s struggle for the Ancestral Weapon, she blocked a full-force attack from a Rebirth Realm expert for his sake and used a Teleportation Talisman to send him to Nanyu Prefecture.

This favor could be said to be enormous.

Qiu Yueqing smiled faintly and said, “It’s been a year since I last saw Young Master Zhao, his demeanor is still the same, his temperament is extraordinary, and it seems that his cultivation has improved a lot.”

She could perceive that Zhao Huai’s aura had increased greatly compared to a year ago, and he had already broken through the Golden Core.

Even she was far behind in comparison.

Although she was less than a hundred years old this year, she had only reached the Peak Golden Core, and it might take some time to break through to the Rebirth Realm.

“The journey through the Spiritual Mountains was quite fruitful.”

Zhao Huai sighed and then focused his eyes on her, sincerely saying:

“I have never thanked you for saving my life last time. If it wasn’t for the Fairy’s help, I’m afraid I would have died on the spot.”

Seeing him mention this matter, Qiu Yueqing smiled sweetly, not knowing why, but she felt a faint joy in her heart that Zhao Huai remembered the matter.

“This is what I should have done. Young Master Zhao carries the blood of Yan Zu and is the Lord of the Yan. He is the chosen seed of the Immortal Sect. His life is naturally important, and my Master Lord had entrusted me to protect the young master.”

Hearing this explanation, Zhao Huai’s mouth slightly curved upward, unable to help but smile.

She was still the same, not changing at all.

Always for the sake of the master’s words, wholeheartedly, straightforward, without considering herself.

“Nowadays, the young master doesn’t need me to protect him.”

With a shallow dimple on her cheek, Qiu Yueqing laughed happily; deep in her eyes, though, there was an indescribable sense of pity.

Initially, her master had asked her to stay by Zhao Huai’s side as a maidservant, and she had barely had a taste of the mortal world’s life.

However, it didn’t take long before they were caught up in the Devil Sect’s war.

The time they spent together wasn’t long, but Qiu Yueqing had already developed deep affection for Zhao Huai.

If in the beginning it was just to follow the master’s orders, to win Royal Crown Prince’s favor,

Now, she truly admires the man before her.

However, she knew that he already had someone he loved and was already married.

There probably was little chance for her.

“Young Master, where are you heading north this time? I remember that the capital of Yan Country is in the south.”

Qiu Yueqing thought of the matter at hand and couldn’t help but ask.

Zhao Huai explained, “Now that many of the Heaven and Earth altars in various places have been lost, the Primitive World in the Western State, the netherworld in the Northern State, I am worried that they have entered the jurisdiction of the Central State, so I am heading north to investigate.”

“Actually, it’s for your sister-in-law, right?”

Hearing Zhao Huai’s explanation, Qiu Yueqing couldn’t help but say.

Zhao Huai was also very surprised. Did even the Immortal Sect people already know about Yu Qinghan’s identity?

“Gu Tianji told me.”

Qiu Yueqing grinned.

“Fairy…”

“I’m really envious of her.”

Qiu Yueqing looked at the desolate mountains and softly said.

As for this, Zhao Huai could only remain silent.

“I want to ask Young Master something.”

“You say.”

“If Young Master had met me first and not Miss Yu, would the outcome be the same as before?” Qiu Yueqing said, her eyelashes trembling.

Zhao Huai pursed his lips, his eyebrows furrowing then unfurrowing, and sighed lightly, saying:

“Fairy can ask this question, but I can’t think like this, I’m sorry, there is no answer to this question.”

“Alright, I understand.”

“Young Master, we’ll meet again if it’s meant to be. I have important things to attend to.”

After bidding farewell to Qiu Yueqing, she turned and left.

Until the end, Zhao Huai did not see the expression on her face.

Qiu Yueqing returned to the other disciples’ team, transformed into a blue streak of light again, and left this world.
