Chapter 259: Finding Shortie
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Before Shen Ying and the rest could think carefully, an even stronger suppressive force charged toward the group, followed by another series of crashes. All the crystal peaks around them turned into smithereens immediately. Yi Qing quickly released his dragon force to protect the two people beside him.
Shen Ying, however, stared blankly. She pointed toward her right and said, “Eh, isn’t that Shortie?”
The two of them paused, turning to look in the direction Shen Ying was pointing. Indeed, there was a girl flying on the right in a pink robe, surrounded by a defensive array, and who was looking anxiously at the two people in battle.
Yi Qing’s and Lonemoon’s hearts jumped. They were just about to go forward when Shen Ying raised her hand and shouted at the top of her lungs, “Hey, Shortie!”
Those words echoed throughout the Thousand Feet Mountain. The two people in battle suddenly paused.
Yi Qing: “...”
Lonemoon: “...”
Lonemoon felt the sudden urge to choke Shen Ying. They agreed to be stealthy – how was this stealthy in any way!
Xuan Tong’s body stiffened. She turned around, as if not daring to believe it. Elation flashed past her face as she mounted her sword and flew toward the group immediately. “Sect Master!”
She was going to jump on Shen Ying, but then came a flash of white light. The person in the white robe who was originally in battle suddenly charged toward them and reached them before Xuan Tong could.
Yi Qing and Lonemoon finally managed to recognise the figure and they all stared in shock.
“Bai Ze!” They shouted.
The next moment, the man appeared before their eyes, clearly agitated. He did not seem to be able to believe his own eyes. Then... he hugged Father Niu!
Shen Ying: “...”
Yi Qing: “...”
Father Niu, who was being hugged: “...”
(゚Д゚≡゚Д゚)
Are? 1
Then, Bai Ze’s cold and trembling voice sounded beside his ear. “Shen... Shen... Shen...” He kept repeating “Shen” but could not bring himself to continue. Bai Ze’s ears began to flush red.
“Sect Master!” Shortie finally landed in front of them and buried herself in Shen Ying’s arms. Her elation turned to utter sadness as she cried out, causing the ground to vibrate. “Sect Master, you’re finally here... I knew it, you would come back for us. Wah...”
Yi Qing: “...” Little bastard!
“Yes, I’m here.” Shen Ying patted her shoulder. “Stop crying.” My robes are new.
Bai Ze, who was still hugging Lonemoon, stiffened. He looked at the person in his arms, then looked at the person next to him, who had the exact same face. There are two Shen Yings?
(⊙_⊙?)
“Shen...”
“Shen your ass!” Lonemoon exploded when he finally managed to respond. “Look closely at who you’re hugging!”
Bai Ze then realised and quickly pushed Lonemoon aside without hesitation. He ran to Shen Ying instead and acted like nothing had happened.
“Shen... Ying.” He finally managed to say her full name. “I really... really...” Really really missed you.
Shen Ying finally got rid of the bug who was dripping mucus all over her robes and looked into Bai Ze’s eyes, which were twinkling. “Who are you?”
Bai Ze: “...”
Yi Qing: “...”
Lonemoon: “...”
There was the faint sound of a heart breaking.
The light in his eyes went out!

“Bai Ze, is this the person you’re looking for?” A question came from the sky. The person who was battling with Bai Ze earlier landed beside them and the group finally managed to get a good look at him.
He was dressed in a green robe. His hair was to his shoulders and he had a wide-set face, like that of a champion. His entire body emanated a familiar Spirit Cleansing Qi. Apart from his black eyes, and the lack of a smart and mischievous twinkle, he looked exactly like...
“Father Niu!”
Yi Qing and Shen Ying called out at the exact same time.
Lonemoon: “...”
What the hell is going on?
—————
Thousand Feet Hall.
Lonemoon had turned back into his original form. He looked at the person in the main seat and felt uncomfortable. He really looked exactly the same. If not for the fact that they were in different clothes, he would have thought he was looking in a mirror.
“Father Niu, you have an older brother?” Shen Ying could not help but ask.
“Get lost!” Lonemoon rolled his eyes. Who has a brother?
“I did not think that there would be someone else just like me in this world,” Qian Yue said as he looked at Lonemoon strangely. He frowned out of habit, giving him a very strict demeanor
“Supreme Divinity Qian Yue, you really aren’t Elder Lonemoon.” Xuan Tong looked slightly troubled. She looked at Qian Yue, then back at Lonemoon. They did not just look similar – even their auras were identical. The only difference was one had God Power and the other had Immortal Qi surrounding his body.
“So all of this happened because you were mistaken of my identity,” Qian Yue tutted. He said angrily, “Bai Ze, what do you have to say now.”
The more he thought about it, the angrier he got. Ever since he got to know Bai Ze a few years ago, Bai Ze had been asking him where his sect master was. No matter what he said, the other party did not let the matter rest. He remained at Thousand Feet Mountain for several years and forced Qian Yue to a corner. Without saying more, he also initiated battles with Qian Yue. Thousand Feet Mountain had been destroyed and rebuilt countless times. From the looks of it, Qian Yue had been terribly wronged. “I already said that I don’t know who you are looking for, yet you kept coming after me for her whereabouts. Now, you can finally believe my words.”
“All these years, at my Thousand... Eh? Bai Ze? Bai Ze?” Qian Yue called out and found that Bai Ze was not even listening to him.
His cold eyes were twinkling as they fixed on the woman beside him. His pupils were filled with the reflection of Shen Ying’s figure. From time to time, he would even hand something over to her.
“Fruit...”
“Oh.”
“Tea.”
“Yes.”
“Pastry.”
“Thank you.”
Bai Ze’s eyes brightened up each time Shen Ying received what he handed her. His ears began to flush red again and this time, his hair began to turn red as well. A moment later, he spoke in a low voice. “You’re... you’re welcome.”
The group faintly saw red bubbles appearing in the surroundings.
Xuan Tong: “...”
Qian Yue:: “...”
Lonemoon: “...”
Yi Qing, whose seat had been stolen, had an extremely dark expression on his face. He suppressed the urge to draw his sword, and could not help but think that the kick he gave Bai Ze a few years ago was far too light. He stepped forward in frustration and said, “Supreme Divinity, you don’t have to worry about Master.”
“You are...” Bai Ze paused. He took a closer look at the person’s aura and recognised who it was immediately. His expression turned cold. Why was this annoying person still around? Bai Ze frowned, but did not put the plate he was holding down. He turned back to Shen Ying.
You’re still looking at her!
Yi Qing pursed his lips and took a step forward, attempting to stand between the two of them. Yet, because of his height, he was unable to block their view of each other. So... he climbed on the table.
He was one entire head taller than Bai Ze. Yi Qing stared down at him.
What are you looking at, bastard!
Suddenly, the two of them were engaged in a stare-down in this weird position.
Lonemoon: “...” F*cking retard!
He really wanted to act like he did not know either of them.
Lonemoon frowned and nudged Xuan Tong, who was seated beside him. He whispered, “Shortie, what happened? Didn’t I ask you to wait for me in the forest? How did you get here?”
“Elder, I was waiting for you there. But the ghost immortal suddenly appeared and I could not fight him. Thankfully, Supreme Divinity Bai Ze happened to be passing by. I said I was a disciple of the Invincible Sect, so he saved me and brought me here.”
