Chapter 183: Chapter 183: Again?"Many thanks to you, Lord Ling, for saving my life. I am Jiang Qingxue. May I have the honor of knowing your name?" The lady in the white dress deeply bowed to Ling Chen. Ling Chen waved his hand and said, "It was just a helping hand, no need to mention it. In the future, do not come to this place alone, it’s better to find someone to accompany you." This time she encountered him, had it not been for his actions, the consequences would be unimaginable. "Alright, Qingxue will be careful." Jiang Qingxue seriously said, "Please, Lord Ling, let me know your name!" "Ling Chen." Ling Chen could only tell her truthfully. "So, it is Lord Ling." Jiang Qingxue hesitated, then after a silence, she asked, "May I ask, Lord Ling, are you heading to Tianluo Prefecture?" She heard Ling Chen mention he was going to visit the He Family in Tianluo Prefecture. "Yes." Ling Chen nodded and said, "Could it be that Miss Jiang is also going to Tianluo Prefecture? That is not wise. He Cheng belongs to the Tianluo He Family. If you go, would it not be like a sheep entering a tiger’s den?" Jiang Qingxue bitter smiled and said, "Lord Ling, you might not be aware, but I am from Xiongwu Prefecture. To return to Xiongwu, I must pass through Tianluo Prefecture." Ling Chen’s eyes sharpened. Their destination was Xiongwu Prefecture, unexpectedly, Jiang Qingxue was also a person from there. Hearing Jiang Qingxue’s words, Ling Chen understood her intention. "I can accompany you part of the way." Ling Chen said. They definitely had to visit Tianluo Prefecture anyway. As for Xiongwu Prefecture, they could not bring Jiang Qingxue along. After all, concerning the matter of the Star Soul Fruit Tree, he did not want others to know. "Many thanks, Lord Ling!" Jiang Qingxue’s eyes brimmed with surprise. Ling Chen smiled and said, "It’s nothing. But please do not call me Lord Ling anymore, you can call me Ling Chen or Young Master Ling." "Alright, Young Master Ling!" Jiang Qingxue nodded.

Holding the longsword with both hands, she presented it to Ling Chen, respectfully saying, "Young Master Ling, I have nothing else to offer but this sword to express my gratitude for saving my life!" "A medium-grade Spiritual Weapon?" Ling Chen’s eyes focused. The aura emitted from the black longsword indicated that it was a medium-grade Spiritual Weapon. "Young Master Ling, good eye!" Jiang Qingxue nodded and said, "I am of low strength, and this sword is of no use in my hands, so I give it to you, Young Master. Please do not despise it!" To activate a medium-grade Spiritual Weapon, typically one needs the Spiritual Power of the Primordial Pill Realm. She was only at the preliminary stage, not even reaching the Spirit Sea Realm, unable to activate it. In her hands, it was no different than scrap metal. Ling Chen hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Miss Jiang, this sword is too precious, I cannot accept it!" To know that even Deputy Palace Master Li Ze from Tianluo Academy does not possess a medium-grade Spiritual Weapon, which shows how precious such a weapon is! "Please, Young Master, accept it!" Jiang Qingxue immediately knelt down, crying, "If it weren’t for Young Master’s rescue today, I would have been humiliated, and perhaps by now, I would have left this world. I have nothing else and am weak; even if I wish to serve as a servant, I suppose a celestial being like you would not accept. Please grant Qingxue this small wish!" "Miss Jiang, please rise!" Ling Chen immediately took the longsword. Seeing this, Jiang Qingxue finally broke into a smile. "How is your cultivation talent?" Ling Chen asked. "Ten-star talent." Jiang Qingxue replied. "Good!" Ling Chen nodded and said, "In a few days, I will give you something. With it, perhaps you won’t let others bully you anymore." Jiang Qingxue offered the sword, so Ling Chen planned to gift her a Spiritual Technique. With ten-star talent, if she cultivates a high-level Spiritual Technique, she might well become a formidable figure in the future! At least reaching the Primordial Pill Realm should be no problem. "Really? Then Qingxue would first like to thank Young Master!" Jiang Qingxue exclaimed with delight. When Ling Chen returned, Piano Girl said with a smile, "Why did it take you so long this time? I’ve had the bonfire going for quite a while already." Just as she finished speaking, she caught sight of the woman in white behind Ling Chen. "Who is this?" Piano Girl’s smile stiffened. What’s going on? It hasn’t been long since we last met, and Ling Chen has brought back a beauty? "This lady must be Young Master Ling’s wife, right?" Jiang Qingxue hurried over, smiling, "I’m Jiang Qingxue, saved by Young Master from a perilous situation. Madam, please take a seat, I’ll handle these strenuous tasks!" "Madam?" Both Ling Chen and Piano Girl were taken aback. Piano Girl was the first to react, giggling sweetly, "Sister Qingxue, you have such good taste!" "It’s not..." Ling Chen was about to speak but was interrupted by Jiang Qingxue, who also gave him a glare. All Jiang Qingxue said was, "Young Master, not to criticize you, but having such a lovely wife, how could you bear to let her do such rough work?" Ling Chen was speechless. Jiang Qingxue came over, skillfully handled the Spiritual Deer Ling Chen was dragging, and then expertly skewered and roasted it on a branch. Soon, a tempting aroma began to waft through the air. "So fragrant!" Ling Chen’s nostrils flared, his eyes gleaming with excitement. Although Piano Girl had also roasted meat before, just from the aroma and appearance, she was already losing to Jiang Qingxue. "Madam, would you like a taste?" Jiang Qingxue offered a well-roasted piece of meat. Ling Chen was dumbfounded. Wasn’t he Jiang Qingxue’s rescuer? Rescuer, and this is the treatment? "Young Master!" Then, Jiang Qingxue handed over a second piece of roasted meat. Not until both Ling Chen and Piano Girl had their fill did Jiang Qingxue start to eat. In the end, the three of them devoured almost half a deer. Ling Chen pulled Piano Girl aside and whispered, "Qin Xianzi, Miss Jiang is also heading to Xiongwu Prefecture. We’re passing through Tianluo Prefecture, so I agreed to take her to Tianluo Prefecture." "No problem." Piano Girl said nonchalantly. "Hey, Qin Xianzi, that’s not what you said when we set out. Didn’t you say we couldn’t bring anyone along?" Ling Chen asked. Piano Girl smiled, "Didn’t you notice that Jiang Qingxue doesn’t recognize me? Besides, she’s only in the Condensed Gas Realm, she poses no threat to us. I’ll talk to her later and take her to Xiongwu Prefecture City." Ling Chen gave Piano Girl a serious look, "You’re not just after her roasting skills, are you?" "How could that be?" Piano Girl retorted. A silent night passed. As morning light spread, Ling Chen and the two women headed towards Tianluo Prefecture City. However, just two hours into their journey, a woman in a pink long dress came sprinting towards them from afar. "Help me!" The woman shouted as she ran. "Hurry, my beauty, she’s over there!" Several young men were chasing after her. "Again?" Ling Chen was a bit dumbfounded. This situation seemed all too frequent; having just rescued Jiang Qingxue, another one appears? The woman in the pink dress approached, and upon seeing Ling Chen and his companions, joy appeared on her pretty face, "Young Master, save me!" As she said this, whether intentionally or not, she tripped and hurled herself towards Ling Chen. "Huh? Why does it feel so soft?" This was the first reaction of the woman in the pink dress. She looked up and saw the beautiful face of the woman in white right before her eyes.
