Chapter 2600: Qingqing and Mu Yu
"Mu Yu, you’re back?"
A radiant young girl entered an Immortal Residence on the edge of the Immortal Town, and a lovely young girl in a green dress greeted her from a bamboo house there, asking in a clear voice, "What did you find this time you went to Lihuo Immortal City?"
The radiant young girl named Mu Yu sighed lightly, "Qingqing sister, there’s still no news of Fang Bai..."
The green-dressed girl named Qingqing showed a dim expression, but then she smiled brightly, "There are nine great Heavenly Domains in the Immortal Realm, each vast and boundless. To inquire about an Immortal’s news is really difficult. Perhaps Fang Bai is in another Heavenly Domain, also searching for us..."
Mu Yu blinked her bright and lively eyes, saying, "Qingqing sister, why don’t we leave here and continue searching for Fang Bai elsewhere?"
Qingqing said, "That sounds good... We’ve been living here for several years, it’s time to leave. It’s just... we’ve gotten so familiar with the immortals in the town, it’s a bit hard to part!"
Mu Yu said, "Qingqing sister, you are always so sentimental... We owe Tianshu Immortal Emperor a debt of gratitude, we can repay it after we find Fang Bai!"
Qingqing nodded, "You’re right. Tianshu Immortal Emperor saved our lives with his care, such a favor, we cannot repay right now. Once we find Fang Bai, we will come back to repay it."
The two Female Immortals were Yan Muyu and Liu Qingqing. After they ascended to the Immortal Realm, they had stayed together and never parted.
The Immortal Residence they lived in had an Isolation Formation set up by themselves, so they were not worried about the immortals in the town hearing their conversation.
The Tianshu Immortal Emperor in their words was a mid-tier Immortal Emperor Realm figure, highly respected in this Immortal Town, and was elected as Town Mayor by thousands of immortals in the town.
A few years back, Yan Muyu and Liu Qingqing were only at the early stage of the Immortal King Realm. They encountered two male immortals with evil intentions while picking Immortal Elixirs on an Immortal Mountain tens of thousands of miles away.
The two male immortals were greatly attracted to their peerless beauty, and relying on their powerful strength, they intended to forcefully become immortal partners with them.
The two women formed a formation to resist, but ultimately, due to the significant power gap, they were captured by those two male immortals.
Fortunately, Tianshu Immortal Emperor happened to pass by, intervened to rescue them, and later brought them back to this Junior Immortal Town.
Tianshu Immortal Emperor, seeing that both women had Innate Spiritual Roots and extraordinary aptitude, couldn’t help but admire their talents and intended to take them as disciples. Unexpectedly, the two women politely declined with the reason "already had a master."
Despite feeling regret, Tianshu Immortal Emperor did not force them, choosing to retain them in this Junior Immortal Town, hoping to win them over with time.
After the incident of being captured, the two women realized that their Cultivation Levels were too low, unsuitable for roaming in the Immortal Realm, so they temporarily settled in the Junior Immortal Town, intending to train until they were more powerful and could continue to search for Fang Bai.
Over the years, in addition to cultivating, they would also go to nearby Lihuo Immortal City to inquire about Fang Bai’s whereabouts. However, every time they went with high hopes, they returned disappointed.
Near this Junior Immortal Town, there were many Immortal Mountains with dense forests, rich in Cultivation Resources. They often entered them with some immortals from the town to seek various Cultivation Resources needed for cultivation.
Additionally, Tianshu Immortal Emperor occasionally provided them with high-rank Cultivation Resources, which greatly accelerated their realm’s advancement.
For this, they felt immense gratitude towards Tianshu Immortal Emperor.
The two women, with extraordinary aptitude and practicing the Immortal Technique Secrets imparted by Fang Bai, advanced swiftly in their cultivation, especially with no lack of resources.
Within just a few years, their cultivation levels advanced together, from the early stage of the Immortal King Realm to the fourth stage of the Immortal King Realm.
Such a rapid pace of advancement left the immortals in the Junior Town speechless, seeing it as a miracle.
Tianshu Immortal Emperor also marveled at the progression, knowing that this was certainly due to their exceptional talent but the Immortal Technique Secrets they cultivated must also be of very high rank.
However, the two women were evidently quite skilled in the Array Path; after setting up an Isolation Formation around their Immortal Residence, even Tianshu Immortal Emperor’s Divine Sense could not detect their movements, knowing nothing about the mysterious Immortal Technique Secrets they cultivated.
Nevertheless, Tianshu Immortal Emperor observed the two women closely, always feeling that the aura they emitted seemed familiar, and he felt a kindred connection.
Tianshu Immortal Emperor suspected there might be some connection with the two women and himself, wanting to inquire about it but feared revealing his identity and the secrets he had hidden for millennia, potentially bringing trouble to the immortals in the town. So, he kept this locked in his heart.
Yet, since then, Tianshu Immortal Emperor paid even closer attention to the affairs of the two women.
The two women, being sharp as ice and snow, noticed Tianshu Immortal Emperor’s curiosity about their identities, so they became extra cautious. When adventuring outside, they used the Concealment Aura Art taught by Fang Bai to hide the unique aura of the Emperor’s Palace disciple.
They were unaware that both Tianshu Immortal Emperor and many other immortals in the town were also suppressing their own realms and hiding their aura, not daring to let outside immortals know their identities.
They were planning to leave the Junior Immortal Town, but not today.
They had agreed with some immortals in the Junior Town to venture into the mountains for training again in three days, where they intended to gather more Cultivation Resources to assist in their future search for Fang Bai.
The next day, a young male immortal appeared in front of the two women’s Immortal Residence in high spirits, standing excitedly inside, calling out, "Qingqing, Mu Yu, an extraordinary Alchemist and Artifact Refiner has arrived in Lihuo Immortal City! Don’t you lack a suitable Immortal Artifact? Let’s go check it out together!"
Hearing the male immortal’s voice, Liu Qingqing and Yan Muyu, who were sitting quietly inside the Immortal Residence, looked at each other and let out a wry smile.
"This Qingyan Immortal King, he truly is... relentless!"
Liu Qingqing sighed, her tone revealing helplessness.
"We’ve already told him that we have immortal partners, yet he keeps pestering... It’s a bit annoying! If it weren’t for the fact that he’s the son of Tianshu Immortal Emperor, we would have beaten him up together!"
Yan Muyu showed some slight annoyance between her brows.
Liu Qingqing said, "He doesn’t mean any harm, there’s no need to beat him. Otherwise, it would be hard to explain to Tianshu Immortal Emperor. Hmm, let’s go and take a look together."
So the two women left the bamboo house and their Immortal Residence, appearing in front of the male immortal known as "Qingyan Immortal King."
Qingyan Immortal King is the son of Tianshu Immortal Emperor. Though not an extraordinary prodigy, his aptitude is also among the top tier. Benefiting from his father Tianshu Immortal Emperor’s meticulous guidance, he has already reached the sixth stage of the Immortal King Realm.
In the same age range among immortals in the Immortal Realm, he is absolutely considered outstanding.
When Qingyan Immortal King first saw Liu Qingqing and Yan Muyu, he was captivated by their matchless beauty. After spending some time together, he inadvertently developed feelings for them.
He confessed to Liu Qingqing and Yan Muyu but was rejected. Still, he wasn’t discouraged and frequently came over under the pretext of discussing the Dao of Cultivation, chatting with them.
