The Carnation Goddess

Chapter 39 Saintess Qian Yufeng

?The Saintess Qian Yufeng was smirking coldly in her heart because she knew that none of the lowly cultivators here would be able to stop a lofty saintess like her from speeding through the high mountain cliffs to scale the tall walls on top of the mountain to enter into the Holy Maiden Sanctuary. As a matter of fact, not even the defensive formations here would be able to stop her.

After all Saintess Sheng Feiyan was taught by Shen Lie and so did she.

Moreover she was renowned for her lightness skill among the 7 holy saintesses.

So when she was speeding up the cliff and saw the face of Shen Lie all of a sudden and he was greeting her, "Isn't this my beautiful Yufeng…"

She got a fright of her life as though she had just seen a ghost and lost control of her profound energies to plunge down the steep cliff.

One must know that she did not have any balance or grip and was just relying on her vital breath to climb up the steep cliff.

As a saintess cultivation realm cultivator and not a fake saintess cultivation realm cultivator, she could really hold her vital breath for a long time. That was unless someone could force her to let go of her vital breath which was impossible for a seasoned cultivator like her.

But Shen Lie had really freaked her to the death because he was supposed to be 'dead'.

Even if he was a lookalike, she would get spooked by him and moreover this Shen Lie did not look like a fake because he was actually greeting her!

Right now all the cultivators were startled when they saw that the Holy Saintess Qian Yufeng, supposedly renowned for her lightless skill was plunging all of a sudden.

And even her own cultivators were startled and were awkward…

All of a sudden Shen Lie had caught hold of her with two strong hands on her back and slender waist as he jumped down.

Everyone was startled that Shen Lie would suddenly be so nimble and so was Saintess Qian Yufeng as she gasped softly in Shen Lie's embrace, "Shen Lie, it is really you?"

Shen Lie gently said in her ears, "My beloved Yufeng, are you alright?"

Saintess Qian Yufeng was gasping with astonishment in mid-air and she had quickly composed herself, "Now I know why Sheng Feiyan has decided to severe our alliance all of a sudden. That is because she has found you and she did not want me to know!"

Shen Lie did not reply to her as he was now sliding down the steep cliff; after catching the Holy Saintess Qian Yufeng, he did not jumped down all the way but had tapped his foot on the steep cliff.

Everyone could see a skewer of debris and dust as Shen Lie had slide down from a height of 70 metres to the bottom of the cliff.

Everyone was actually expecting Shen Lie to lose his balance all of a sudden and he would roll down the steep cliff with the Holy Saintess Qian Yufeng.

Even Nangong Shu, Elder Hua Zixia, Elder Li Hong, Jie Ying and all the onlookers.

It was because there was totally no balance and not even a saintess level cultivator would accomplish what Shen Lie was doing with his hands on a cultivator and he was just sliding down in a hasty manner without the use of any profound animus.

To the astonishment of everyone, Shen Lie had actually landed on the ground smoothly and he was still carrying Saintess Qian Yufeng.

Right now he had landed in front of Nangong Shu and Hua Zixia…

Almost all the cultivators that were watching, began to curse Shen Lie's 'good fortune' in not slipping and many were commenting that it must be due to holding the Holy Saintess Qian Yufeng as his good luck charm and his manly pride that he did not slip at all.

Xiong Ba and Chu Feng on top could not help cursing loudly, "Darn! This Shen Lie really is lucky…"

But only Nangong Shu, Hua Zixia and Saintess Qian Yufeng knew that Shen Lie was at the Grand Sage Saint level.

However they were also quite startled; it was because they were led to believe that Shen Lie had no martial foundations and he could not make such a smooth landing.

Saintess Qian Yufeng was the most stunned because she could still remember how they had accidentally caused Shen Lie to drop down the desolate mists and thereafter they could not even find his corpse below.

Even Saintess Qian Yufeng had no idea that Shen Lie could actually land in this manner and moreover he had not used any profound arts. It was like this was the most natural thing that he could do even without a cultivation core.

Now this was the most fun thing that everyone was waiting for, when Shen Lie had landed with the Saintess Qian Yufeng; everyone was waiting for Saintess Qian Yufeng to push away Shen Lie with great indignant and then to slap or kick him until he was bedridden for months or even years.

After all, touching a holy saintess especially 1 of the 7 holy saintesses was a big no thing in the Fenghua Great Continent.

But Saintess Qian Yufeng continued to hold onto Shen Lie tightly and she was coyly looking at him dreamily.

Shen Lie had to tell her softly, "Erm, we have landed. I believe that Saintess Qian Yufeng can let go of me now, right?"

Right now, Shen Lie felt that he was now in the center of all attention and he was in the limelight; this was not something that he actually enjoyed at the moment.

As he said that, Saintess Sheng Feiyan, Fairy Yue Shuwen and the other inner court elders had also just arrived and were shocked to see Shen Lie holding onto Saintess Qian Yufeng.

Saintess Sheng Feiyan hummed coldly, "Holy Bitch Qian Yufeng, you can let go of him now and hug me instead."

Saintess Qian Yufeng had immediately let go of Shen Lie and was standing on the ground; she was now humming coldly to Saintess Sheng Feiyan, "Sister Saintess Feiyan, what did you say just now? And you are keeping such a lofty secret from me?"

Saintess Sheng Feiyan hummed, "You can drop your pretenses. Maybe you are the one that had attacked his cultivation core in the past and I am keeping you away from him."

Fairy Yue Shuwen was perplexed: What are they talking about? What lofty secret and pretenses? Someone's cultivation core was attacked?

Then she had turned to look at Shen Lie: It is him?!

Saintess Sheng Feiyan smiled coldly as she pointed at Shen Lie, "You lowly cultivator. Go back to your elder now. This place isn't for you to stay."

"Wait!" Saintess Qian Yufeng was smiling with a soft chuckle. "This lowly cultivator has just saved my life. Didn't you see that just now? Therefore I will like to bring him back to be my guest."

This was an impolite request for she had used 'will' instead of 'would' like to bring Shen Lie back to be her guest.

Saintess Sheng Feiyan giggled, "Your holy sect has no men. So it is inconvenient for you. Let your Sister Saintess Feiyan helps you to reward this protégé instead."

All the cultivators were looking blankly because they had no idea what these two holy saintesses were talking about.

Just a moment ago, the Saintess Qian Yufeng was trying to see Saintess Sheng Feiyan but now they seemed to be a cold wall between them!

Saintess Sheng Feiyue said to Shen Lie, "Now go. I will surely let you Saintess Qian Yufeng thank you in person in 7 days. For now, you have to go for your experiential training and to earn your contribution points."

Saintess Qian Yufeng rolled her golden eyes; it sounded like Saintess Sheng Feiyue was her superior and she was the inferior when Saintess Sheng Feiyue was saying that she would allow her, a lofty holy saintess of the sixth biggest holy land to thank Shen Lie.

But for now, she had decided to suppress her rages.

Instead she coldly said softly to Saintess Sheng Feiyan, "Luckily I have decided to pay you a little visit or I would be played by you."

Saintess Sheng Feiyan laughed softly as she pretended to pull her arm away, "I welcome my Sister Saintess Yufeng to my residence."

Saintess Qian Yufeng whispered softly to her and she looked annoyed, "Who did you call Holy Bitch Qian Yufeng just now?"
