After arranging for Beitang Ying to settle with Ye Jing and Gong Nanyan, Fan Yuqing and Feng Minyue were taking a slow stroll back to the guest palace of the Heavenly Fragrance Villa when they chanced upon Liang Ni arguing with Mu Huiyin and Ascension Master Tie Nansen.
As Mu Huiyin saw Fan Yuqing, she smiled coldly to Liang Ni. "Isn't that your new lover? Why don't you look for her right now?"
Liang Ni was startled as he turned around and saw Fan Yuqing and Feng Minyue heading in his direction, "Saintess Yuqing…"
Tie Nansen said sternly, "On accord of our friendship, I shall arrange a superior room for you. But if you want to leave then I shall not stop you either. Remember that your protégé mistress has expelled you from her sect. You are not to pester her again."
Liang Ni said angrily, "Tie Nansen, do you think I do not know that you are coveting my protégé mistress for ages? She doesn't like you so you can give up your wishful thoughts…"
Mu Huiyin hummed coldly as she took Tie Nansen's arm, "You are wrong. I have already reciprocated to his love and we're together now. It is all thanks to you that I've finally know what a good person he really is. He has been waiting for me for close to 800 years. Now I only wish to spend my remaining years with him."
As Fan Yuqing quietly approached, Mu Huiyin smiled faintly and said. "Saintess Yuqing and Saintess Minyue, how is your day?"
Feng Minyue merely nodded gently because she knew that Mu Huiyin was only looking at Fan Yuqing.
Fan Yuqing smiled gently as she looked at Mu Huiyin and Liang Ni, "I'm good. How about you? I think I am hearing an argument?"
Liang Ni was looking at Fan Yuqing as he muttered, "Saintess Yuqing, can we talk later?"
Mu Huiyin smiled coldly, "The two of you can talk all you want. From today onward, Liang Ni isn't my disciple anymore. As a matter of fact, I have expelled him from my sect. Good bye."
Then she walked off without looking back.
Tie Nansen bowed quickly with his hands to Feng Minyue and Fan Yuqing, "Let me apologize for Mu Huiyin. She isn't in a good mood today…" Then he had disappeared in Mu Huiyin's direction.
Liang Ni turned to look at Fan Yuqing and he was smiling awkwardly, "I…have been looking for you for many days but you are always in the company of Saintess Ziyue."
Fan Yuqing smiled gently, "My godmother has many things to share with me, especially on methods of cultivation and I have shared some of my cultivation experience with her as well. You know that the big battle is coming soon and we all need to prepare ourselves for it."
Liang Ni nodded and asked, "I wonder if we can chat one to one?"
Fan Yuqing shook her head gently, "I'm sorry. I am really tired. I've just been to Xuan Danfeng place and I got a headache from her. Moreover, Sister Minyue and I are still going to discuss the clan strategy for the upcoming battle. Why don't we have a chat when everything is over, alright?"
While Liang Ni was staring at her with a sense of loss, Fan Yuqing said. "You ought to pay more attention to your current condition. You don't look too good and in fact, you are looking a little emotional. I don't know what happening between your protégé mistress and you but you should try to pacify her and everything will be fine. She isn't serious about expelling you. It must be because of me and because of our duel that she is upset with you. You should try to avoid me until you've pacified her first."
Finally she heaved a soft sigh before she walked away, "Good bye and take care."
Liang Ni really did not know what to say. It was because his relationship with his protégé mistress was a secret…
He was thinking as he allowed his thoughts to go wild, "Maybe Saintess Yuqing can sense that Huiyin doesn't like her and that is why she is trying to avoid me…it is all for my own good…she really cares about me…"
