Chapter 56: If Not Seen at Mt. Qunyu 2

Dream Dao Attainment, Opening Scheme Against Cultivators

Dream-Making Expert

Steward Chen spoke of the rumors he had heard, looking down, not daring to look at Lin Qi's expression.

Yang Zhiyun had been missing for half a year.

No body, no corpse, alive or dead.

Though it was called a disappearance, there had always been rumors that Yang Zhiyun, on his way back to the Immortal Academy, had unfortunately been run down by a Foundation Establishment Elder in a hurry to travel.

Of course, such a claim had yet to be confirmed.

In any case, Yang Zhiyun's son, Yang Yunlong, had never believed it.

If Steward Chen had not known that Lin Qi possessed the ability to fly to the heavens and burrow into the earth, to ascend the skies and dive into the seas, he would not have believed it either.

Being run down on the road — such a way to die was too ridiculous.

But so long as Steward Chen recalled that day before heading to the Cold Moon Palace, when Lin Qi had waited a quarter of an hour and even specifically asked about the time needed to travel from Yushan Ward to the Immortal Academy.

Then he had gone and returned in no time at all.

Steward Chen could not help but connect Yang Zhiyun's death with Lin Qi.

But he did not dare to ask, did not dare to speak of it.

"So that really was a coincidence."

Lin Qi nodded slightly and took a sip of tea.

"Something the matter?"

Lin Qi set down his teacup and asked.

"Master. I don't want to go to the Immortal Academy anymore."

Yang Qingqiu hesitated for a moment before mustering the courage to speak.

"Why?"

"Going to the Immortal Academy to cultivate was always your dream, wasn't it?"

"That was before."

Yang Qingqiu muttered in a low voice, then finally dared to say, "Now, now I want to follow the Master."

Lin Qi quietly watched Yang Qingqiu and did not answer.

The courage Yang Qingqiu had mustered vanished piece by piece, and finally she lowered her head in dejection. "I understand. Qingqiu was out of line. I, I need to go back to my room and pack."

Yang Qingqiu finished speaking in a fluster, ran back to her room, covered her head with the blanket, and finally could not help but cry.

She truly was willing to give up going to the Immortal Academy to cultivate and follow Lin Qi forever.

Though she had only spent a year with Lin Qi, and only in the last half year had they truly been together day and night.

So by no means could it be called a deep bond.

But Lin Qi was powerful, capable of making Steward Chen of the Law Enforcement Hall bow and scrape like a lapdog, nodding and fawning at his side all day.

And Lin Qi could also refine pills.

His pill-refining skill was said to be
