Chapter 91: Meeting Again
Upon seeing Ling Xue once again, Li Lang frowned while Long Yi was taken aback. Seeing his friends’ expressions, Wei Ping placed a hand on each of their shoulders.
“What’s w-wrong?”
“That girl…” Li Lang let out a sigh. “She’s that Ling Xue I told you about. The one who was in Spirit Grove and got me banished. I suspected we may have a chance to see her now that we’re in the Luminescent Domain, but still…”
The trio each had their own thoughts on the matter, but they were forced to keep walking. They had to keep up with the others from The Orchid Covenant.
However, their eyes never wandered from the girl. It made it hard for the other party not to notice.
Ling Xue and Jiang Beiyun both felt their gaze and quickly ended their conversation with their peers. They then headed straight toward the trio.
Jiang Beiyun amiably nodded their way before steering over toward the Head Councilman of The Orchid Covenant. They exchanged a few words with the old man before finally heading to Li Lang.
“It’s been a while, you three. I’m surprised to see you here, but your Head Councilman explained to me how you performed admirably and earned yourself a ticket to the pocket realm.”
The three faltered for a moment as they struggled with how to respond. Jian Beiyun had always been friendly with them. However, standing beside him was someone who had a complicated history with them.
Before the three boys could respond, Ling Xue interjected.
“Big head kid! So you’ve decided to come to the Luminescent Domain! Good for you!” the girl cheered with a smile. “Welcome! I’m sure you’ll find a much brighter future here!”
Her sudden antics had entirely stunned Li Lang into silence. The present Ling Xue was unreconcilable from the one in his memories.
