Maybe My Soulmate! (GL)

Chapter 89: Chapter 89 - Ancient Ruins (part 3) ! Sons of destiny!?

When Mo Yuxin and Su Yubing were trying to identify the purpose of this ancient ruins, they encountered a particularly strange building which emitted a pressure far above the other houses.

As they decided to open the door and enter it to take a look, they found to their suprise that the doors were soo heavy that even with their strength, they had to exert quite a lot of strength before it opened.

But what came into view was a very random yet normal looking room with nothing but simple furnitures for daily life usage. But what was suprising wasn't that the seemingly wooden furnitures stands still even after so many countless years but that there wasn't a single speck of dust on anywhere in the room, as if someone had been cleaning it regularly.

As they were somewhat distracted by the sight before them, a sudden yet old but particularly warm voice floated into their ears making both Mo Yuxin and Su Yubing not only surprised but also extremely vigilant as they immediately took out their swords and turned around to face the source of the sound.

What came into view was a seemingly old woman who was dressed in a cyan white robe, looking particularly ethereal as her black and white hair draped down her waist flowing like water, her black eyes seemed to have a burning heroic spirit hidden within and Mo Yuxin and Su Yubing both felt a innate sense of admiration towards this figure.

Their previous vigilance already relaxed a lot but Mo Yuxin still didn't dare to gamble,

"May I ask for senior's purpose in visiting us juniors." Even though she asked this, Mo Yuxin was particularly respectful of this old senior as with her keen senses she immediately felt a profound power emanating from her that made her truly surprised for a second. And if it wasn't for her divine sense, she might've never known.

Even though this old woman looks extremely ordinary but no one would dare to think so.

After hearing Mo Yuxin's question and the way she was respectful towards seniors made the old woman visibly satisfied as she nodded her head a bit and said,

"Hohoho... It's been a long time since I've come into human contact. Let's chat over a cup of warm tea otherwise it would seem quite rude." The old woman said and went into the house as she waved her hand a little and the next moment, a low table materialized out of thin air! Not only that but also a pair of sitting mattress on one side with a single pair on the other also came into view.

And with another wave of her hand, a kettle with steaming hot tea in it with three cups were also placed on the table.

The old woman sat on the single mattress as she beckoned then to come forward and sit down.

At this point, Mo Yuxin and Su Yubing already had a hunch about who she is but waited respectfully for the senior to speak and their previous vigilance had already completely disappeared and now there was only curiosity in their minds.

Mo Yuxin looked at Su Yubing who also turned her head to look at her. Their eyes met each other and the visible affection seemed to be overflowing. The gentleness and tenderness in them seemed like a pool of warm spring water and they were willing to drown in them together.

Mo Yuxin tightened her interlocking fingers with Su Yubing and as if in a tacit understanding, they both came forward and sat down on the pair of mattress right beside each other. As they sat down, Mo Yuxin's hand subconsciously went towards Su Yubing's hand to hold them but instead she ended up touching her slender and soft thighs causing them both to stiffen in their place.

Su Yubing's ears turned red at a speed visible to the naked eyes as well as Mo Yuxin.

But because they were infront of the senior old woman, they didn't dare to say anything and chose to pretend to be calm and distract themselves from it. But Mo Yuxin felt a little dry in her throat as the soft feeling on them lingered on her finger tips and she couldn't help but glance at them from the corner of her eyes with a burning desire in her eyes.

Of course, Su Yubing noticed her actions and felt embarrassed even more as they were right infront of the senior and could only glare at Mo Yuxin.

Seeing her cold eyes, Mo Yuxin immediately pressed down all the desires in her heart as she didn't want to anger her and immediately retracted her outstretched hand and could only hold her hand instead. She could only try to distract themselves from their predicament by talking with the senior,

As Mo Yuxin and Su Yubing turned to look at the old woman, they both saw her looking at them with particularly smiling eyes but they could both feel a deep sense of longing and nostalgia from those old pair of eyes.

"Ahem.. I'm Mo Yuxin and this is Su Yubing. We are from the outside world, from a place called Azure Dragon City. We actually came here after encountering a cave of another senior with a sword called 'LingLong Sword'.

There, we found a strange teleportation formation and arrived in this place after using it." Mo Yuxin talked and gave a brief introduction as to who they were as well as how they came into this place.

The old woman also listened carefully but the moment, the word 'Linglong' came out of Mo Yuxin's mouth, she seemed particularly excited as she immediately asked without the pretense of an old immortal but more like an excited child,

"You!! You encountered LingLong Sword?!! Hohoho...

Good, good. So, who among you received the inheritance left in it? " After being excited for a brief moment, she returned to her previous calm and asked again.

From the words of the senior, it was evident that she knew the owner of the LingLong Sword and from her brief excitement, it wasn't hard to deduce that she must've had a pretty good relationship with her.

Su Yubing at this moment simply took out the LingLong Sword and placed it on the table as she said,

"It's me. Senior." Her words were always precise and to the point but nobody would ever feel any sense of superiority nor any sense of arrogance in her words.

It seems it was only infront of Mo Yuxin that she spoke more like a young girl.

After seeing the broken LingLong Sword placed on the table, The old woman stretched out her hand and sword flew into her hands as she carefully traced her fingers on the sword body.

After seeing the state of the sword, there was a brief moment of sadness and helplessness flashing in her eyes but she quickly concealed it. Of course Mo Yuxin and Su Yubing both noticed it and knew that there was some kind of story related to it.

In the next moment, The senior placed the sword down with a helpless sigh at the end.

"Take it back. Young lady. Now this sword belongs to you until she comes to take it back herself." As the old woman said, she gestured her hand a little as all the three cups were filled with a scented tea which had a particularly refreshing aroma as if your soul itself was being reinvigorated by it.

Su Yubing consciously took the sword into her storage ring and they both obviously heard the underlying meaning in the seniors words.

Mo Yuxin and Su Yubing looked at each other and they both knew what each other was thinking without even talking.

"The owner of the LingLong Sword is still alive in some form or other." This is what they deduced from the senior' words and couldn't help but be surprised but that was only for a second as after all, for such a strong Cultivator like her, it wasn't a big deal to be alive.

At this point, The old woman suddenly started talking,

"You must've a lot of questions about this place and everything. Don't worry, I will answer them to the best of my abilities.

As for who I am, I'm the guardian of this place and my name is 'Xie Guiwan'. This is the ancient city called 'Shenghuo Menkou'.

This is also the place where the truly strongest of the world gathered at one time. They studied spiritual energy, invented new technology, formations, inscriptions, weapon smithing, alchemy and also studying more efficient way to cultivate. as for the purpose, I can't say much as you're not powerful enough and don't have the necessary authority to know.

But I can only say it's because of a manmade calamity by a few so called 'Sons of destiny.'" Senior Xie said quite a few words about this place but what intrigued both Mo Yuxin and Su Yubing the most was the word ' Sons of destiny.'

Mo Yuxin was particularly familiar with the word and she wasn't that much surprised but was only curious for a moment but she suddenly felt Su Yubing's huge emotional fluctuations beside her.

Su Yubing tightened her hand holding Mo Yuxin's and ....
