Li Qingshan traveled upstream with Ye Liusu, passing through the current and finally arriving in Moon Court lake. He passed through the many formations and arrived in the Clear Court sect of the past, the Moon Court dwelling of the present.
“Alright. Open your eyes!”
“What’s this?” Ye Liusu opened her eyes and saw the rising and falling halls and pavilions under the moonlight.
“We’re in Moon Court lake. I’ve already refined it. This island originally belonged to a sect called the Clear Court sect, but I’ve chased them away. From now onwards, it is the Moon Court dwelling, as well as the territory you wanted under the stars!”
Li Qingshan pointed at the sky. It just happened to be late at night, so the brilliant moon hung in the sky, surrounded by stars.
“This is… my…”
Ye Liusu’s heart seemed to drift towards the stars with Li Qingshan’s hand.
She had intended to establish a territory above ground since a long time ago, but she understood human cultivators were not amicable with otherfolk. Acting rashly would only turn the night roamers into targets.
She had this ideal, but she still had to listen to her rational side. Not to mention it all meant nothing if she did not possess a territory she could fall back onto.
Now, Li Qingshan had personally delivered the territory she could only dream of to her, completing her long-cherished wish. The surprise and joy she felt went without saying.
Ye Liusu returned to her senses and pushed Li Qingshan onto the ground. She was unable to express her feelings with words anymore. All she could do was embrace him with all the strength she had in her.
Li Qingshan laid on the soft grass and saw the corner of Ye Liusu’s eyes moisten. They glimmered like stars, turning into tears very quickly. She became a weeping beauty, becoming even more beautiful and enchanting.
He also became filled with a faint feeling of joy, wiping away the tears for Ye Liusu. He held her delicate face and gently kissed her lips.
Ye Liusu made a clumsy response, extending the tip of her tongue into his mouth. He immediately sucked it and began tasting it.
Li Qingshan pulled off the black cloak on Ye Liusu. She was dressed just like when they had first met. The simple, black armour only covered her most important parts such that both her thin waist and slender legs were exposed. A flowery pattern extended across her skin, making her mysterious and alluring.
Li Qingshan rolled over on top and smiled. “When we first met, I think we were like this.”
Ye Liusu turned crimson from embarrassment. Back then, never did she think there would be a day when she would lie beneath him willingly. Her eyes suddenly began to flicker. “Actually, I have another wish.”
“What?”
“I read a book by humans about the matters between a man and woman. They were the only ones for each other. If one of them died, the other would not be able to live any longer either. It made me very envious. It made me wish I also had someone like that. However, this kind of feeling will never appear among night roamers, and I never dared to wish for it either until I met you.”
Ye Liusu was rather embarrassed, but she was very calm, as if she was waiting for him to do anything he wanted to her.
Li Qingshan shuddered inside. Listening to her sincere words, he was very touched, but from Ye Liusu’s expression, he could not help but think of Han Qiongzhi.
Had she emerged from seclusion yet? Had she succeeded with Foundation Establishment? When would she return?
Li Qingshan rolled onto the grass and gazed at the sky full of stars. He murmured, “The only one.” The stars turned into Han Qiongzhi’s longing face as he felt a tinge of guilt inside.
The tender love he usually showed to Ye Liubo was merely a master’s affection to a pet, not to mention nothing had actually occurred yet, so he felt no guilt. As for what he went through with Lolth, it was more like a great adventure filled with danger and excitement. Even his fate had been unpredictable, so he had no time to feel guilt even if he wanted to.
However, with Ye Liusu, he had truly fallen in love. He was unable to avoid it.
“What’s wrong?” Ye Liusu propped herself up and asked in confusion.
Li Qingshan pulled her into his arms and shook his head with a smile. “Nothing. I just thought of something I had promised, but I failed to uphold it.”
Fortunately, this was not his former life, or he really would have committed the most heinous of crimes. In this day and age, even the icy-cold Han Anjun had a great group of concubines. This was why despite the constant rumors between Ru Xin and him, Han Anjun had never killed his way over and ordered him to move out of the Chain mountains.
Compared to this, what Li Qingshan had even less of a choice over was his identity as a daemon. Now this was something that truly touched on his life and survival. If he handled it badly, he would definitely harm himself and others.
Chapter 511: Great Danger | Legend of the Great Sage
The gentle night breeze made his scarlet hair drift through the air.
Li Qingshan gazed at the stars, and in a daze, he saw Han Qiongzhi’s fuming face. He smiled gently and let go of Ye Liusu, standing up. He looked back at the western horizon and saw a streak of light fly over.
Li Qingshan leapt up, arriving in the air and blocking Hua Chengzan’s way.
“You’ve come again.”
“We agree to your conditions. We can give you the Watermirror disc, but you have to give us the Lightning Slaughter sword first.” Hua Chengzan was slightly surprised before calming down. As soon as he finished, he saw Li Qingshan wave his hand and toss out the Lightning Slaughter wooden sword.
“Aren’t you afraid we’ll change our minds?”
Li Qingshan said, “Only if you have plans of never leaving the Academy of the Hundred Schools again.”
Hua Chengzan sighed gently. This was the confidence that came with absolute strength. Afterwards, he removed the Watermirror disc from his hundred treasures pouch. The Watermirror disc reflected the moonlight in the sky, which seemed like a full moon being held in Hua Chengzan’s hands. It radiated with bright and pure light.
Li Qingshan’s eyes lit up, and he smiled. “How good is this? Everyone can coexist in peace, taking what we need and cultivating in peace.” He accepted the Watermirror disc before turning around and returning to the island.
Hua Chengzan had prepared many things to say, but he actually had no opportunity to say it. However, what Li Qingshan said happened to be his objective. He actually felt rather lost after achieving his objective so easily.
Li Qingshan returned to the island. Ye Liusu saw the Watermirror disc in his hand and asked curiously, “What is that?”
“The treasure of the Academy of the Hundred Schools.”
Li Qingshan stared at the Watermirror disc in his hand, and his mind was sucked in involuntarily as if the lover of his dreams was standing right before him, naked. He actually felt like he was unable to shift his gaze.
This had originally been an idea he had come up with on the spot, but looking at it now, it was no longer that simple anymore. As Li Qingshan channeled in his daemon qi, the spirit turtle’s daemon core in him suddenly responded, emitting rings of light.
Li Qingshan had refined many arcane artifacts and spiritual artifacts before, but this was the first time the spirit turtle’s daemon core had such a violent response.
The Watermirror disc’s function definitely was not as simple as surveillance.
Ye Liusu said, “Master, it’s far too empty here. I’ll go bring some clansmen. They’ll definitely be happy.”
