To watch her own family and friends grow old and die of sickness and age, yet being unable to do anything about it; seeing her peers starting families and having children and grandchildren, dying peacefully and resting after having lived a fulfilling life...
While she herself could only stay guard over the world like that, enduring long years of loneliness...
To a beautiful girl like that, how cruel was such a fate? But she couldn't simply break down and be unable to endure! Because she was still needed for the War for Seizing the Heavens! The world needed her!
If there were no Qiao Ying in the War for Seizing the Heavens, who knew how many people would die? Perhaps... they might even be defeated once, or more times!
In order to maintain her state of mind, she had spent almost all her time atop the Pillar of Heavens Mountain, quietly living by herself! At that level of elevation, even ghosts and spirits would not be able to reach her. Time flowed by like that, and now, she was already an old woman of over a thousand years old! But her heart was still as clear as water and incomparably pure! One could say... that this thousand year old senior, was simply a naive young lady in the matters of the world!
Because... her memory of the world only consisted of a few short years. And that was only the memory of her childhood to adulthood. After that, all she'd been doing was train in seclusion, participate in the War for Seizing the Heavens, and then return to training again...
This time, with the Heaven Saint Palace mobilizing their people to protect the Holy Lands' forces, Qiao Ying, who had always stayed away from the matters of the world, unexpectedly requested to go over. And her insistence was even pretty strong!
Before this, she had been staying atop the Pillar of Heavens Mountain for 400 straight years!
Left with no choice and knowing that Qiao Ying's All Seeing Eye had improved along with her cultivation to the point where she could now control it at will, they accepted her request. But because of the importance of this matter, they'd sent two more experts to accompany alongside her.
Nothing could happen to Qiao Ying!
After entering Chrysanthemum City, the pure-hearted Qiao Ying whole heartedly carried out her mission, and her spiritual sense was practically attached to the few Saint Emperors' body. So the moment there was an anomaly, she instantly rushed over.
And the timing that she arrived was exactly the same time when Jun Mo Xie was pranking Bai Qi Feng and stealing Hai Wu Ya's belongings! There weren't any traces of the perpetrator, but because of the anomaly, she instantly thought of the stealth techniques of the strange races, so she activated her All Seeing Eye!
In an instant, all of Young Master Jun's sneaky actions had been revealed before her eyes!
The Yin Yang Escape Art was a true godly ability; if it reached a high enough level, even the All Seeing Eye would not be able to detect it. However, Young Master Jun's current level was too low. Against Qiao Ying's 2, 500 years worth of cultivation strength, the Yin Yang Escape Art which had never failed before was finally exposed for the first time!
At that time, Qiao Ying was just about to call out and warn the Saint Emperors, exposing Young Master Jun's scheme, when a chilly voice suddenly sounded out beside her ear."Don't make any sound. If you so much as make a single squeak, this Young Master will have no choice but to do what I have to do!" At the same time, a cold Nine Nether Frost Blade was pressed against her neck...
The moment she heard this voice, Qiao Ying instantly knew that this person was the three Holy Lands' greatest enemy, the Nine Nether Fourteenth Young Master!
She did not doubt the identity of that person at all. Because only the Nine Nether Fourteenth Young Master would have such a unique item like the Nine Nether Frost Blade! And only the Nine Nether Fourteenth Young Master would have such a strange Yin Qi!
Most importantly, with her current strength, apart from the Nine Nether Fourteenth Young Master, almost no one else could possibly have the ability to restrain her. Even if it were a sneak attack! At the very least, she had this much confidence...
And right now, she'd clearly already landed in the palms of this strong enemy...
She could only blame everything on her lack of worldly experience. Otherwise, even if Qiao Ying's strength was not enough to fight head on against the Nine Nether Fourteenth Young Master, she had over 2, 000 years worth of cultivation energy in her body. No matter what, it shouldn't have been so easy for someone to sneak behind her and subdue her so easily...
She had simply been too shocked and captivated by Jun Mo Xie's movements; in addition, she'd been too anxious to warn the Saint Emperors and her attention had been completely absorbed, which led to her not noticing her surroundings...
In addition, she'd been extremely enraged by Young Master Jun's sneaky actions, allowing the anger to cloud her mind which resulted in her being sneaked on by the Nine Nether Fourteenth Young Master so easily...
"Don't move a finger; just sit down and watch quietly... A grand battle like this is exceedingly hard to come by. If you ruin the show, this Young Master will have to do something very regretful!" The Nine Nether Fourteenth Young Master had continued in a bland tone.
Qiao Ying clearly felt a pair of eyes gleaming brightly behind her head, blazing with great interest as a light chuckle sounded in her ears."That little brat is truly sinister! This Young Master likes him to death! Good, good, toy those hypocrites to death, how did this Young Master not think of such a brilliant idea..."
As Jun Mo Xie had guessed, the Nine Nether Fourteenth Young Master had indeed been following behind him all along. For such an outstanding young man to appear all of a sudden, how would the Nine Nether Fourteenth Young Master not feel suspicious?
No matter what, he was determined to dig out everything about Jun Mo Xie!
With the Nine Nether Fourteenth Young Master's powerful strength and the huge gap in power between him and Jun Mo Xie, he very naturally became the only person in this world who could tail Young Master Jun without being discovered...
Like that, Young Master Jun played his tricks on the front, and the Nine Nether Fourteenth Young Master followed behind him, watching. The more he watched, the happier he became. He simply felt that this kid's methods were truly vicious and too suited to his tastes...
After that, he saw Jun Mo Xie disappear without a trace a few times, and then successfully use his so-called Free and Natural Physique to turn Zhan Mu Bai and the Misty Illusory Manor against each other, and was subsequently there to plot to once again rile up Hai Wu Ya and He Zhi Qiu to completely fall out with the Misty Illusory Manor...
All these actions caused the Nine Nether Fourteenth Young Master to become more and more interested in this young 'brat'.
Although he also saw the rascal using his name to scare Zhan Mu Bai, the Nine Nether Fourteenth Young Master did not have any intentions to expose him. He followed Young Master Jun around as if he were watching a grand drama, all the while exclaiming in delight in his heart.
When Jun Mo Xie suddenly took out the Nine Nether Frost Blade, he was finally sure of one thing: this brat definitely had some relations to that Nine Firmament First Old Master fellow!
At this point, he finally understood why this fellow had been able to recognize him and why he had such a unique stealth technique. To think that all of this originated from that Nine Firmament First Old Master!
Just thinking of that name had caused the Nine Nether Fourteenth Young Master to feel an annoying ache in his balls...
This daddy is only ranked fourteenth, but you dare to claim yourself as number one? I'm Nine Nether, and you're Nine Firmament; I'm a 'young master', and you're the 'old master'; you're the heavens and I'm hell?! F*ck, this is simply too much...
However, the Nine Nether Fourteenth Young Master was completely helpless in this matter. Because the name 'Nine Firmament First Old Master' was apparently 'bestowed' by the three Holy Lands... And the reason for that was actually because of him, hoping that he would go looking for this Nine Firmament First Old Master for trouble...
How can I, the wise and handsome Nine Nether Fourteenth Young Master possibly make such an elementary mistake? Therefore, the Nine Nether Fourteenth Young Master was determined to not fall for that trick! Instead, he would look for the three Holy Lands to settle the scores! They... are the real source of all the anger!
Besides, the Nine Firmament First Old Master had once helped him break the seal. Regardless of his original intentions, he could be considered half a benefactor. Moreover, the two of them had a prior agreement among themselves...
As for this little junior who was using his name to fool around... he could also be considered as the successor of an old friend ah...
Not mentioning the other stuff, just taking into account this intense classic battle that he got to enjoy so much, he would let the kid impersonate to his heart's content! If such satisfying scenes could be concocted a few more times... then it doesn't matter even if you impersonate me a few more times!
Moreover, this rascal's actions all sat very well with him. The more fragmented the three Holy Lands and the Misty Illusory Manor became, the better. It would be best if their relationship could worsen even more thoroughly; that would be the most satisfying thing...
That way, he could deal with them one by one...
So, how could the Nine Nether Fourteenth Young Master possibly allow Qiao Ying to spoil such a good thing?
It was naturally impossible!
Watching helplessly as Jun Mo Xie created chaos and the nine Saint Emperors all turned on each other to the point of going out to fight a grand battle, Qiao Ying had nearly gone crazy from anxiousness. She was practically on the verge of going all out to resist, when the Nine Nether Fourteenth Young Master unexpectedly let her go. Smiling lightly, the Nine Nether Fourteenth Young Master said, "Not bad indeed. Looks like this brat truly has some skills in acting. There's basically no need for this Young Master to worry about the matters after that; I'll return to recuperate and prepare for a big fight! Otherwise, all the efforts this kid made would go to waste..."
After saying that, the Nine Nether Fourteenth Young Master suddenly disappeared without a trace, leaving a mortified Qiao Ying who nearly snapped her teeth from grinding them too hard!
She rushed out to try to salvage the situation, flying out of the city to search. When she finally reached, the battle between the Saint Emperors had concluded long ago. Just when she was wondering how she should clear up the situation, she discovered the desolate-looking and foul-smelling Young Master Jun cursing as he ran along...
Just like that, she followed silently behind him, determined to dig out the person behind the scenes, but unbelievably, this stinky little brat was actually the main culprit behind the entire incident!
Who would have thought that after following him for a while, the little fellow would suddenly strip himself completely naked without a care in the world and jump into the water...
Qiao Ying had been observing him extremely carefully, watching him with widened eyes and heightened senses in case she lost him in a moment of carelessness. So when Young Master Jun stripped himself with such great speed, she'd seen everything very clearly, in great detail...
In all her thousand years of purity, when had she ever seen such a scene? In an instant, her entire face flushed red, and her body grew feverish. She could only turn around hurriedly, cursing lowly under her breath. Shameless! Rascal! Hooligan! Despicable...
