Daoist Master of Qing Xuan Chapter 488

Chapter 488 - Fluttering Heart

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Starlight burst out of Wu Ding’s burly body and he was embodied within the high-speed light. His mana stirred within him and his facial expression was starting to get twisted.

The Flying Stars Incantation did not operate according to his will. The operating speed of his mana was nearing his limit, and Shen Lian was paying close attention to Wu Ding’s condition.

Fortunately, the martial exercise had spirituality and co-existed with its master. It stopped right before the breaking point.

After a while, the starlight shrouding Wu Ding faded away. It was only then did the Flying Stars Incantation stopped operating.

Shen Lian gave a wave with his hand, a gust of chilly air current seeped into Wu Ding’s major acupoints. Eventually, the air current congregated within his body and coursed through his meridians, soothing out the hidden damages dealt by the operation of the Flying Stars Incantation earlier.

Wu Ding took a few deep breaths and restricted the mana in his body to his Qihai. He gestured respectfully to Shen Lian, “Thank you, prince.”

Shen Lian smiled and replied, “Why don’t you follow me to the Dynasty School?”

Lei Jing pointed at Wu Ding, “Come and lead the horse.”

Wu Ding was taken aback, but he proceeded to lead the horse. Shen Lian however, refused, “You are an old acquaintance of mine, there is no need for this.”

Lei Jing puffed her cheeks and continued to lead the horse. Despite her intelligence, she was still a teenage girl. She instructed Wu Ding as part of her effort to calm her heart that still fluttered from witnessing Shen Lian’s punch earlier.

Shen Lian’s punch had cut off the Xia Canal and sent the heart of a teenage girl beating intensely. So it seemed that this young teacher had such strong power, power that was comparable to her grandfather’s.

When she was a child, she followed her grandfather – the clan leader of Youhu, Lei Hong to hunt outside of town. A thousand-foot-hill blocked his way, which he had then shattered into ashes with just a single punch.

Although, Lei Jing was unaware that Shen Lian’s punch derived its force from the world, while her grandfather’s punch was a manifestation of his own capabilities. Both were significantly different methods of cultivation and were hence difficult to be compared with each other.

When they first met, Lei Jing saw Shen Lian as a good-looking young man who came to the manor to ask for a favor. His black tiger piqued her interest. Before coming to the school, she was surprised to find out that he was connected to Guan Longzi and had taken in disciples together.

Due to this previous encounter, she defied her father’s order and chose Shen Lian as her teacher without hesitation. Shen Lian played better than the best musician in the palace, and she knew that he was a prince from a small and remote nation in Xirong.

She was becoming more and more curious. However, Shen Lian’s impartiality towards her did not sit well with her ego. She was not fond of him. This was why she offered her analysis when Guan Longzi requested for Shen Lian’s help, just so that Shen Lian would take her seriously and hold her in higher regards.

Lei Jing could tell that Shen Lian did see her in a different light. However, that was not enough because Shen Lian was not surprised yet.

Now, every ounce of her pride was shattered by Shen Lian’s punch earlier.

As she was guiding the horse, she stood at a close distance to Shen Lian. Previously, she noticed his fresh scent. However, her current state of mind was different.

After all, she was only sixteen years old.

Of course, someone of Shen Lian’s caliber would have noticed Lei Jing’s miniscule transition. The transition was beneficial to Shen Lian. At least he knew that this proud young girl would be more obedient when he taught her later.

However, Shen Lian wondered how she would feel if she were to find out that she will be expecting a younger sister as Shen Lian had made her father consume the river water from Zimu River.

Of course, if the Prefect Grand Usher, Lei Nuo found out about the function of the river water from Zimu River, he would probably be dying to skin Shen Lian alive regardless of the scheming and calculating person that he was. In fact, it might even involve a life and death struggle.

Shen Lian who rode on the white horse queried suddenly, “Do you think a man could give birth to a child?”

Wu Ding seemed confused. Lei Jing stared at Shen Lian, she thought that he would look good as a female with his gentle features.

“Weirdo,” Lei Jing replied.

Shen Lian was shocked. Too bad that he could not tell Lei Jing about her father. Shen Lian raised his head and tried his best to suppress his laughter.

He liked the person that he was – one who knew how to smile and had a sense of humor.

The white horse made its way into the Dynasty School. The black tiger rested lazily at the door. If one were to chain it and masked its head, it would actually look like a big black dog guarding the door.

The white pegasus snorted loudly, signaling for it to make way. The black tiger opened its sleepy eyes and was ready to teach the pegasus a lesson. However, it recalled the fight they had, one in which it had lost.

The black tiger roared and made its way to the white horse.

Judging from the black tiger’s movement, Wu Ding thought that they were about to engage in a fight. However, Shen Lian was still on the horseback.

The black tiger made its way to the white pegasus and crouched. It seemed to suggest for Shen Lian to use it as a mat.

After all these years of living, this was the first time that Wu Ding had seen a fierce beast who was such a people-pleaser.

The corner of Shen Lian’s lips lifted, he was amused by this tiger.

Shen Lian’s feet did not fall on the black tiger. The black tiger wrapped its claws around Shen Lian’s them when they were within its reach.

The black tiger had teary eyes and dished out his rehearsed wail, “Master, why are you abandoning me? I do not eat much and am loyal to you. Did you see how the damned horse was trying to hit me earlier?”

Shen Lian spoke calmly to Lei Jing, “Bring him in, Guan Longzi is still inside.”

Then, Lei Jing brought Wu Ding in. Laughter like a carillon of bells could be heard as they stepped into Zhiwei Home.

Shen Lian spoke with disgust on his face, “Fine, I will not abandon you. You have amassed enough spiritual force throughout the years. I shall teach you a set of cultivation formula someday. Also, do not fall asleep when I am teaching. Pay attention. To think that you are incapable of defeating the Pegasus, what an embarrassment you are.”

The black tiger released its grip and looked at the pegasus provocatively.

The pegasus snorted loudly to express its displeasure.

Shen Lian spoke to the Pegasus, “You could listen to me when I am teaching too.”

The black tiger was stunted, so it seemed like he would have to put in some hard work.

After dealing with the lazy tiger, Shen Lian walked into Zhiwei Home. Guan Longzi was speaking to Wu Ding, while Lei Jing was making tea obediently.

Guan Longzi and Wu Ding rose as they saw Shen Lian walking in.

Guan Longzi smiled, “So you both have met before!”

Wu Ding replied, “Even though I knew that the prince was unusual, but I did not think that he is the reincarnation of a Celestial.”

Now that he was freed from the Book of Life and Death, he could be rightfully addressed as a Celestial.

“Initially, I too did not know that you are a noble of Yin Shang. I thought you are a common Qi cultivator and was unaware of the uniqueness of your Dao formula,” Shen Lian replied.

Guan Longzi spoke, “Zi Zhao, what is so unique about the Flying Stars Incantation that you cultivate?”

Wu Ding smiled bitterly, “To be honest, I found out that the Flying Stars Incantation has spirituality today.”

Guan Longzi was shocked, “The martial exercise manifested spirituality?”
