Chapter 1522: Missed the Moment
Thinking of this, Liu Ming frowned.
Suddenly, he thought of a person.
It was Xue Long, the young master of Blood Vine Race.
He remembered that Qian Rupin and her got along well with each other back then. She even went to Blood Vine Race to learn their totem mystic arts. Maybe she knew their whereabouts.
Thinking of this, Liu Ming flew toward Lang Ya Mountain where the Blood Vine Race was located.
With Liu Ming’s speed, it took only a few hours for Liu Ming to reach the Lang Ya Mountain.
Lang Ya Mountain was composed of towering peaks that formed a ring.
In the large mountainous area in the middle, there were densely packed blood-colored giant trees. The shortest of which was hundreds of meters high. Countless buildings were built on the giant trees. They were surrounded by clouds like a paradise.
Most of the buildings followed the rough style of Savage Wild Continent, but it could also be clearly seen that some human architectural styles were mixed in.
But the most eye-catching thing here was the largest bloody ancient tree in the middle.
This ancient tree was nearly ten thousand meters tall, slightly higher than the surrounding mountains. There were various buildings built on the thick trunk. People wearing the Blood Vine Race uniform patrolled from time to time.
At this time, Liu Ming was standing in front of the giant blood-colored tree, showing a surprised expression.
This was his first time coming to Lang Ya Mountain. He didn’t expect that the Blood Vine Race would be so huge.
He shook his head and released Divine Thought, enveloping the entire giant tree instantly.
After a while, Liu Ming swayed and disappeared.
…
Near the top of the giant blood-colored tree, there was a very unique two-story building.
In a room that was filled with water mist and fragrance, a young girl with disheveled hair was sitting cross-legged in a large red tub filled with light green water.
The young girl had red lips and white teeth. Although her appearance was not as good as Yao Ji’s, she was considered charming.
Most of her body was soaked in the water, exposing only her collarbone and half of the snow-white bulge on her chest.
This girl was the young master of Blood Vine Race, Xue Long.
Xue Long’s eyes were closed at this moment. Her body exuded a faint blood-colored light. The green water in the barrel slowly rotated around her body, and the water gradually turned colorless.
After a moment, Xue Long opened her eyes and flew out of the tub.
With a red flash, she had put on a red dress, and her hair was tied up with a ribbon. Her heroic spirit was back again.
She seemed to be in a good mood.
“Miss Xue Long, you have already advanced to the Celestial State later stage after these years. It seems that you will advance to the Mystic Comprehending State soon. This is gratifying.” A voice sounded. There was a ripple in the room, and a green figure appeared out of thin air.
“How dare you! Who are you!” Xue Long launched a palm at the green figure.
A blood-colored light shot out from her palm and turned into a 30 meters long blood-colored python.
“Miss Xue Long, it’s me.” The green figure tapped the head of the python with his finger, and it stopped in the air.
While speaking, the green light dissipated, revealing Liu Ming’s figure.
“Liu Ming!”
Seeing that Liu Ming restrained her blood python technique, she was about to launch a successive attack. After seeing Liu Ming’s face, she blurted out in surprise.
“Exactly, I’m here this time to ask you something. I have no ill intentions. You and I are considered acquaintances, so Miss Xue Long doesn’t need to use mystic art to inform the people outside.” Liu Ming glanced at Xue Long’s left hand as he said.
She was about to crush a blood-colored ring on her left hand.
Xue Long was surprised. She didn’t expect Liu Ming to even notice such a subtle movement.
She opened her left hand, smiled, and was about to speak.
But then she seemed to think of something, and her face turned red. She whispered hesitantly,
“When did you come here? Did you see it just now…”
She had just come out of the tub. If Liu Ming had arrived here earlier, he would have seen her naked body.
“I just arrived here, so I didn’t see anything?” Liu Ming said with a strange look.
In fact, he had already arrived here. His Divine Thought discovered Xue Long’s aura in the room. However, he retrieved his Divine Thought after a brief inspection and did not intend to peek at the naked scene.
Liu Ming looked calm and didn’t look like he was lying, which made Xue Long relieved.
“Nothing.” She waved her hand, and the blush on her face quickly faded.
Xue Long looked Liu Ming up and down with a surprised look.
“What adventure have you encountered? You are now at the Mystic Comprehending State and can sneak into my room silently.” Xue Long raised her eyebrows and said.
“I didn’t want to attract the attention of other people in Blood Vine Race, so I had no choice. I hope Miss Xue Long isn’t offended.” Liu Ming said with a slight smile.
“Hmph, for the sake of you refining elixirs for me before, I won’t blame you this time. But I won’t call you senior. Come with me.” Xue Long snorted and walked out of the room.
Liu Ming smiled helplessly and followed behind her.
They sat down in the living room outside. Although Xue Long had a somewhat unruly temper, she still showed some courtesy and made Liu Ming a cup of spiritual tea.
“Thank you, Miss Xue Long.” Liu Ming smiled and thanked her.
“Hmph! You seem to have lived a good life these years. Tell me honestly, during the past few hundred years, why do you abandon Sister Tianmei and Ruping in Luo City? “Xue Long snorted and said angrily. There was a tone of lecturing.
Liu Ming knew her character, so he wasn’t bothered. Instead, he looked joyful.
From her tone, Xue Long should know their whereabouts over the years.
“In the past years, I have indeed had a strange adventure, but it involves some personal privacy, so I cannot disclose it to you. I came here to ask Miss Xue Long about Tianmei and Ruping. They seem to have left Little Huan Courtyard very early. Do you know where they are now?” Liu Ming cupped his hand.
Xue Long seemed a little displeased. She said in a cold tone,
“You left a message to go to the Dead Sea and then disappeared completely. Sister Tianmei and Rupin have been searching for you in the dangerous Dead Sea for more than 10 years. Do you know how much hardship they suffered? I don’t know what happened to you, but aren’t you a bit too irresponsible?”
Liu Ming’s face looked a little sad. He sighed,
“I’m indeed at fault, but I couldn’t help it. Please forgive me, Miss Xue Long.”
“I hope you can tell me their whereabouts. This is my apology. Please accept it, Miss Xue Long.” Liu Ming cupped his hand and took out an emerald armor.
This inner armor looked like it was made of emerald, looking exquisite. It was also inlaid with more than a dozen thumb-sized white gems, looking gorgeous and dazzling.
This inner armor was a high-grade magic weapon that he snatched from an unknown demon. It not only had good defensive power, but it also looked gorgeous.
Xue Long’s eyes were beaming upon seeing the green armor.
She could naturally see that this armor was an excellent defensive magic weapon, but more importantly, she was more attracted by the dazzling white gems.
She had no intention of making things difficult for Liu Ming, but she was a little angry that Liu Ming had been missing for so long. Now that she knew Liu Ming had his difficulty, and he gave her a big gift, her anger was almost gone.
“Well, for the sake of this armor, I can tell you.” Xue Long quickly took the armor from Liu Ming’s hand, looked at it carefully for a while, and then reluctantly put it away.
Liu Ming smiled faintly. She had heard somewhere before that women were not resistant to shiny things.
“Back then, Sister Tianmei and Rupin couldn’t find you, so they settled down in the Blood Vine Race. Our race doesn’t have much resistance to human cultivators, and Sister Ruping was a master of arrays, so my mother was very polite to them. …”
“… After failing to search you all these years, Sister Tianmei still believed that you were still alive. Decades ago, Sister Tianmei finally had the opportunity to summon her aspect and advance to the Celestial State. After that, she bade farewell to my mother and took Sister Ruping on the sea-crossing giant ship to the Middle Sky Continent to find you.” Xue Long said slowly.
Liu Ming sighed in his mind. He didn’t expect them to go to the Middle Sky Continent first.
When he left that year, the Middle Sky Continent was undergoing a massive invasion by the Hellish-Insect Clan. Even the Eternal State Mother Hellish-Insect descended to this space. The situation on the continent was now unknown.
“Thank you, Miss Xue Long.” Thinking of this, Liu Ming was a little anxious. He hurriedly stood up and said goodbye.
“The next sea-crossing ship will set off in 20 years. If you want to return to the Middle Sky Continent to look for them, you might as well live in Luo City for a while.” Perhaps it was due to the green armor, Xue Long’s attitude toward Liu Ming was much kinder.
“Thank you, Miss Xue Long.” Liu Ming smiled noncommittally, nodded slightly, and waved his hand. His body glowed with green light, and he disappeared.
Seeing this, Xue Long was astounded.
Liu Ming’s aura disappeared in an instant. She couldn’t even detect the slightest fluctuation of spiritual power left by Liu Ming through the layers of enchantment in the building.
Xue Long secretly smacked her tongue. I didn’t expect that Liu Ming’s strength would have reached such a level now. I’m afraid that even the Mystic Comprehending State elders with the highest cultivation, and even my mother, cannot do this.
However, she was carefree by nature and would not think much. Soon, she forgot about this matter.
She walked into another room and examined the green armor happily.
