Free Web NovelChapter 1922: Chapter 1922: Dao Lake!
Yue Lintao said with a cold face, "You two really don’t understand the rules. Is it possible that my Master would harm you both?"
"I’ve already said that the night banquet at Dao Lake will definitely be eventful. With your weak strength, you’ll definitely be targeted. By then, where will our Saber Saint Cliff’s reputation go?"
Qin Chen didn’t even glance at Yue Lintao, looking at Yuan Sha, "Vice Palace Master Yuan, rest assured, we both have the strength to protect ourselves if the others truly make a move."
After saying this, he said nothing more and pulled Lin Songyun to choose a pavilion to stay in.
Yue Lintao immediately shouted angrily, "You two, if you get bullied by then, don’t expect us to help you!"
Tian Jiahan also sneered, "Birds of a feather flock together. What kind of people hang out with what kinds of people."
"Two fellows who are clearly not strong, yet still so arrogant."
Yuan Sha coldly watched the backs of Qin Chen and Lin Songyun as they left, muttering under his breath, "I said from the start, praising him so high was surely digging a grave."
"No matter how much potential one has, a genius who can’t grow is just a wastrel!"
It was apparent that Yuan Sha was extremely displeased with Qin Chen’s resistant attitude.
Wang Houyun observed all of this, sighed, and shook his head slightly.
After a short while,
He caught up with Qin Chen.
"Wait a moment, Junior Brother Qin," Wang Houyun called out.
Qin Chen smiled and looked at Wang Houyun, "What is it, Brother Wang?"
Wang Houyun said, "Yuan Sha is our leader this time. Your resistance to him will definitely make him unhappy. If something actually happens, it would be extremely disadvantageous for you."
"You shouldn’t conflict with Yuan Sha."
He was offering sincere advice.
Qin Chen replied, "I’m not intentionally conflicting with him; I just want to do what I want to do."
Wang Houyun hesitated and said, "You are different from me and Yue Lintao and the others. You come from the Ninth Palace, and Ye Wutian is a legend in Qian State, so it’s inevitable that attention will be drawn to you from the start."
"My advice is that it’s better not to attend the Dao Lake Night Banquet this time."
From these words, Qin Chen noted that the Ninth Palace of Saber Saint Cliff not only held prestige at Saber Saint Cliff but also in Qian State.
His senior brother, who seemed to be laughing and joking all day, appeared to be unfathomably powerful.
However, as the second disciple in the history of the Ninth Palace, how could Qin Chen possibly disgrace the Ninth Palace?
Qin Chen smiled and said, "If no one provokes us this time, it’ll be fine, but if someone does, I’ll show them why I was accepted into the Ninth Palace of Saber Saint Cliff."
Wang Houyun looked at Qin Chen’s fearlessness and was slightly stunned, then nodded, "It seems that Senior Dream Saber Lord’s judgment was never wrong. You indeed have something we all lack."
"It’s not just outstanding talent."
After saying this, he exchanged a few more words with Qin Chen and then left.
Qin Chen and Lin Songyun went together to choose a pavilion.
"This pavilion looks nice," Qin Chen said.
Qin Chen fancied a pavilion lush with greenery, very fitting to Lin Songyun’s ethereal aura.
"I like it too," Lin Songyun said with a smile.
Qin Chen’s eyes lit up immediately.
His gaze fell on Lin Songyun, "Since we both like it, let’s stay here together. We’re close by, and it’ll be convenient to connect emotionally."
Lin Songyun smiled sweetly at Qin Chen, "No way."
These pavilions are meant for single occupants after all, and if they both stayed, wouldn’t they end up sharing a bed?
Qin Chen, however, didn’t mind at all.
He chuckled, "There’s no reason not to, it’s decided. The weather’s getting colder, wouldn’t it be nice to have someone to warm the bed for you?"
Lin Songyun laughed and said, "I know exactly what you’re thinking, warm the bed?"
Qin Chen chuckled, "That’s my wife, warming the bed while also..."
Seeing Lin Songyun’s gaze shift towards another spot,
he followed her gaze.
He saw the scene of the dusk sunset; a golden cloud in the distance, with undulating mountains sketching a poetic and picturesque setting.
"So beautiful."
Lin Songyun sat down, her cheeks filled with a longing for beauty, cupping her face as she watched the beautiful sunset.
Qin Chen sat beside Lin Songyun, naturally letting her rest her head on his shoulder.
Beautiful things, the right person.
As time passed, everything was so wonderful.
"The night scenery of Dao Lake must be even more beautiful," Qin Chen said.
Lin Songyun commented, "Maybe we shouldn’t go. It’s just a lake view; it probably isn’t much to look at."
Qin Chen gently flicked Lin Songyun’s nose, "What, don’t you trust me?"
"Don’t worry, we’ll watch our night scene, not clash with anyone, nobody knows who we are, we can just enjoy our own world."
Qin Chen held Lin Songyun, speaking with a smile.
Both cherished such moments due to their rarity.
They were under great pressure and responsibilities,
leaving them with little chance to enjoy life’s beauties.
"Mm,"
Lin Songyun gently nodded, resting her head on Qin Chen’s shoulder which gave a sense of security, quietly watching this setting sunset.
The sky gradually darkened.
The night at Dao Village wasn’t quiet; rather, it buzzed with activity.
Looking out, a sea of colorful lanterns created a magnificent sight.
"Let’s go, we’re heading to Dao Lake."
Qin Chen and Lin Songyun stood and went to Dao Lake on their own.
They casually asked someone for directions and soon arrived at Dao Lake.
Various foods prepared around Dao Lake in Dao Village filled the air with enticing aromas.
The vast Dao Lake resembled a perfect, untouchable artwork, its surface calm at times and tossing at others. A gentle breeze made it enchanting.
"Truly beautiful."
Lin Songyun’s eyes glittered with joy.
Qin Chen could feel that the ’Daoist factor’ around Dao Lake was significantly denser, at least five times that of ordinary places.
He could even vaguely absorb another kind of power.
"It should be ’Daoist God Power’," Qin Chen guessed.
Earlier, Ye Wutian had mentioned that Daoist God Power was a unique presence of Dao Village, capable of enhancing a Martial Artist’s Martial Intent.
"Those two really showed up?"
When Yue Lintao and the others arrived, they saw Qin Chen and Lin Songyun, and their faces darkened at once.
At this moment, a hearty laugh resounded, "Brother Yoan, long time no see!"
A man dressed in luxurious attire approached Yuan Sha.
A glint of malice flashed deep in Yuan Sha’s eyes.
This man was an elder of the Huangfu Family.
Last year, a disciple from Saber Saint Cliff had fallen at the hands of the Huangfu Family!
