Chapter 1052: The Beginning Of The Immortal Family (II)
At Moongaze Lake, within Vermilion Bud Pavilion.
The bluish stone lanterns shone with a hazy glow, as they were reflected upon the ink-black waters of the lake. The night was heavy and deep.
Li Quewan withdrew her technique and stood in the pavilion for a moment. With her own Daoist Master breaking through, the Bright Yang energy over the lake was too intense and its transformations uneven. Cultivating the Whole Pill Dao was better in the dead of night, so she had altered her practice hours. Now that her training was finished, the night lay pitch-black around her.
"Big Sister Quewan!"
Just as she rested, a flying shuttle skimmed across the lake, carrying someone who then landed before her. It was her younger distant cousin from the same bloodline, who had been cultivating on the island. Li Queyi was dressed in a pink dress, with a round face and dainty ears, looking delicate and endearing.
She smiled and said, "Congratulations, Sister. The elder brothers have all been released!"
"What?!" Li Quewan had been filled with worry, and had half-convinced herself that she was going to be summoned to Mount Qingdu. She had not expected such good news. Yet her joy flashed by in haste, replaced at once with unease.
She asked, "How were they interrogated?"
She understood why Li Zhouluo had delayed dealing with this matter, and feared all the more that he might recklessly suppress it, which would truly harm her... but Li Queyi only smiled and said, "Sister, do not worry! Great Uncle Chenghuai has successfully broken through and now presides over Qingdu. He exposed Li Dongdi's lies with the Untraceable Presence truth-seeking talisman, and the rumors crumbled on their own!"
Li Quewan's eyes curved with sudden delight as she exclaimed, "Great uncle has broken through! That is truly wonderful!"
