Chapter 490: Return to the Subcontinent
A few days later, Chen Wentian received his payment of five hundred kilograms of orange spiritual crystal as promised from the Yang Clan. There was no point in cheating him out of money when the wager and duel had taken place during the Gift Giving Ceremony with half the continent as witnesses. With money in hand, there was nothing else to do and he prepared to leave.
He found Long Yifei between classes and together, they strolled towards the teleportation array. She would have to stay at the school for another six months out of the eight-month school year. She would be plenty busy, what with classes and practicing with the gifts he gave her as well as the ones obtained from the Gift Duel. He was afraid she would be lonely but she assured him she would be okay.
Really? He asked again as they walked side-by-side through the forest path, Do you want me to visit before the end-of-year examinations?
Long Yifei shook her head, Go, Im sure my fellow sisters are more than anxious for your return. I cant occupy your time forever.
Mmm. But Ill really miss you. He then lowered his voice, And our nights together.
She blushed and shoved him with her elbow, I will miss you, master.
Good! He laughed.
All too soon, they arrived at the circular hall made of white marble that held the teleportation array. Several dozen sacred daughters and various immortals were coming and going.
Chen Wentian and Long Yifei both stopped to look at each other. The past two months had passed by in a blur. So much had happened and they had found each other anew, reestablishing their relationship with a far more intimate foundation.
He was hesitant to leave her, worried that any progress they had made would regress during their time apart. She was hopeful, looking forward to treading closer to the immortal realm and unlocking the secrets of her past.
Master, I will train hard. I wont let you down. She said.
I know you wont.
About that other matter
He interrupted her with a hug, whispering in her ear, Shh, focus on your studies for now. I will let you know if I find something.
Thank you.
Good, if anything happens, call me and Ill come. Though try not to get into any crazy shenanigans in the next two months if you can help it. The Convocation of Swords is starting next month.
I am sure Sister Wu will bring glory to Ten Thousand Flower Valley in your name.
Qianyu? Yeah, probably. Im more worried about the others that also want to compete. None of them are true sword cultivators but knowing them, they all want to join in on the fun. Even Chengcheng wants me to teach her some simple sword art, can you believe that?
Long Yifei covered her mouth and giggled, I believe it. I only wish I could be there to cheer everyone on.
Yeah, me too.
The two fell silent, peering into each others eyes.
I should go. He said lamely.
Master. She said softly.
She really was too beautiful. He couldnt bear to leave her but he had to. He could have easily stayed and lost himself in her arms every night but he knew that neither of them wanted that.
Ill see you again very soon so I wont say goodbye and you shouldnt say it either. He declared.
She cracked a smile and nodded. She then bowed deeply, a sign of reverence and respect for the most important man in her life. By the time she lifted her head, he had already disappeared through the teleportation array.

The first place Chen Wentian visited upon returning to the Eastern Sanmu Subcontinent was not his home province but the Eastern Sanmu Metropolis. He arrived unannounced at Lotus Tower but Immortal Gentle Lotus Gong Liyun didnt mind it and greeted him far more warmly than he ever wanted.
This time, she ambushed him with a one-piece silk dress that was completely sheer. A few embroidered lotus flowers in strategic places maintained some semblance of modesty but it was still difficult to avoid looking at her disguised figure which was an epitome of perfection.
Brother Wentian, do you like it? She said coyly, sticking her butt out so that it was more prominent, I had this outfit made especially for you. I always knew you would come to visit me!
Chen Wentians eyes drifted over her naughty bits for only a brief second before he blocked out her illusory allure.
He coughed awkwardly and looked away, Im not here for a booty call. I just came back from the Martial Brilliance Continent. I thought youd be curious and I also had some questions about some things I saw there.
Oh! A story, how exciting! She exclaimed.
She jumped onto the sofa next to him and snapped her fingers. The lanterns dimmed and a cup of wine appeared in her hand. She took a sip and leaned towards him, fluttering her eyelids, waiting for him to speak.
Chen Wentian ignored her seduction and told an abridged tale of the last two months including trouble with various abbotesses, the Seven Potentates of Jiannan, and the Gift Giving Ceremony.
Gong Liyun happily listened until he finished and spoke up, Sounds like you had a lot of fun. Are you worried about those slut abbotesses? Did any of them ask you to be their lover?
What? No! Chen Wentian replied.
Hows that possible? Youre so young and tasty!
Ah, that They dont actually believe that Im that young as there isnt any hard evidence or any clear record of my family background.
Gong Liyun laughed, Perhaps. But I think that Abbotess Li Shishi you described might know the truth. Who knows, she might want to jump on your cock like me. Be careful, Id hate for you to be eaten up by her.
Chen Wentian snorted, I can handle myself around women.
Wrong. You can handle yourself around virgins and inexperienced girls. Youve never had a full-grown woman; youve never been with someone with centuries of experience with countless men. Trust me, its a whole another world. I can prove it to you.
Whatever. And arent they supposed to be virgins? How can they have lovers? He asked.
Silly boy, being a virgin doesnt mean that they dont have sex. Im sure youve figured that out already with that pretty Long girl.
Chen Wentain spluttered but he couldnt argue with that.
My offer is always there. I promise Ill go easy on you. If you ever need to seduce one of those old sluts or something, I can help you. Gong Liyun said.
Chen Wentian didnt reply but he considered her words with some seriousness for the first time in his life. He felt a strange sense of coincidence with her offer and the visit to the Frostfire Nation that lay some time in the near future. Perhaps
Anyways, if were not going to fuck, I have other things to do, other boys to do, you know me. She said, emptying her cup of wine.
Wait, I wanted to ask one thing. He said quickly, I pissed off the Yang Clan of Great Waves pretty good this time around. Do you think they will directly attack my sect or my disciples to punish me?
Gong Liyun considered the question before answering, Do I think they are capable of despicable actions like that? Sure. But it is difficult to move a Spirit King if thats what youre worried about. More likely, they might send a few Spirit Lords over to test your defenses.
Chen Wentian scowled. Her estimate was in line with his own. The Yang Clan wasnt going to let him go that easily. He would have to be very careful, at least until Jasmine woke up from her hibernation.
Gong Liyun continued, I wont be able to help you but I trust you should be able to handle such rabble?
I can handle it. He said darkly.
She giggled, Good, my little Wentian is the best. I have faith in your manly prowess!
Chen Wentian stood and bowed to her, Thank you for the counsel. I appreciate it. I should return to my sect.
Bye, honey! You can come see me any time!
