Nine Revolutions Star Transformation

Chapter 455: Chapter 469: Nie Ling’Er’s Doubts

Chu Linfeng turned towards the sound and saw that it was Nie Ling’er looking at him. The black veil on her face made it impossible to discern her current expression.

”I wonder what business the Saintess Ling’er has with me? How did you know I came here?” Chu Linfeng asked.

”We’ve been waiting for you at the Carefree Palace for several days, but you never arrived. Eventually, we all left in disappointment. I thought you would definitely come to participate in this martial arts tournament, so I searched for you everywhere. I didn’t expect to find you so soon; it seems we’re truly fated,” Nie Ling’er said with a smile.

”Heh, you say we’re fated, and that’s that? Wanting to be my woman isn’t that easy; you should be mentally prepared,” Chu Linfeng laughed.

”Who said I wanted to be your woman? You’re really shameless. The martial arts tournament is tomorrow; are you confident you’ll take first place?” Nie Ling’er asked.

”No, I’m just here to join the fun; I never thought about any ranking. By the way, who else is looking for me?” Chu Linfeng asked.

”Young Master Wushuang and Young Master Wenqin are both looking for you. You left in such a hurry last time that everyone was worried for a long time. You must know that Ye Suping from the Celestial Fragrance Pavilion in Canglan Ancient Land is notoriously ruthless. Her Celestial Fragrance Poison is famous worldwide, and she especially loathes men. How did you escape from her grasp?” Nie Ling’er said.

”This is not a place for conversation with so many people around. Saintess Ling’er, is there a quiet place?” Chu Linfeng said.

”You aren’t planning on doing something bad to this Saintess, are you? Even if you did, this Saintess wouldn’t be afraid. There really is a very secluded place in the Valley of Despair. Let me take you there!” Nie Ling’er said and left immediately.

Chu Linfeng followed her, walking for a while before they saw Wenqin and Young Master Wushuang approaching. ”Brother Wenqin, do you think Young Master Feng will come to this martial arts tournament?”

”I suppose he will. If he wants the world to know about his Green Frost Sect, he’ll definitely participate. I’m just worried he might encounter trouble on the way and miss this match,” Young Master Wenqin said.

”Let’s search again. I wonder if Nie Ling’er has found him; she’s surprisingly infatuated with Young Master Feng at first sight—who would’ve thought,” Young Master Wushuang said.

Then they left again to search for Chu Linfeng and Nie Ling’er, while Chu Linfeng and Nie Ling’er were sitting quietly on a grassy slope in the Valley of Despair, talking.

”Why did Ye Suping seek you out so hurriedly that day? We all suspect that the massacre of the Celestial Fragrance Pavilion disciples is related to you, because only you have the power to kill those people,” Nie Ling’er said.

Chu Linfeng glanced at her and smiled, ”Go on, I believe you haven’t gotten to the main point yet.”

”You might have already known about Ye Suping’s arrival and left in a hurry. Coupled with Ye Suping’s inquiry about your whereabouts, it further proves everyone’s suspicions. You are the one the Celestial Fragrance Pavilion is pursuing. It’s just that I don’t understand how you managed to escape from her grasp.

You must know that back then, your Star Power was greatly depleted, and Ye Suping had already broken through to the Saint Martial Realm. Dealing with you would have been a piece of cake. Could you shed some light on this matter?” Nie Ling’er asked.

Chu Linfeng stood up, looked at the distant Valley of Despair, and said, ”I like talking to beautiful women. You’re wearing a veil, which shows no sincerity. How could I casually reveal such secrets?”

Nie Ling’er chuckled, ”Young Master Feng’s peculiarities are truly puzzling for Ling’er. You’ve seen my face once; there’s no harm in seeing it again. Do you understand what it means to casually make a veiled maiden remove her veil?”

”I don’t know about that. Does it mean I must marry her? Both you and Qing Ruming have taken off your veils for me. Doesn’t that mean I’m suffering a loss?” Chu Linfeng laughed.

”You’re so narcissistic! Do you think we’re such casual people? You should tell me how you escaped from her,” Nie Ling’er asked with a smile.

After speaking, she voluntarily removed her veil, revealing a face of stunning beauty before Chu Linfeng. Seeing such a beauty, Chu Linfeng laughed, ”You truly are beautiful. Rumeng must be as beautiful as you. That night, when she disguised herself like that, it was quite scary.”

”You knew she used Disguise Art? Rumeng’s Disguise Art is unparalleled! How could you have known?” Nie Ling’er asked in surprise.

”Since she could tell I used Disguise Art, naturally, I could also see through hers. It’s quite normal. Look, there’s just the two of us here; with such perfect scenery, wouldn’t we be wasting it if we didn’t do something?” Chu Linfeng laughed.

Nie Ling’er’s face immediately turned red, feeling quite aware of the danger this guy posed. She looked at Chu Linfeng suspiciously and said, ”What did you say?”

”Heh, just joking. Why so tense? Do you know who Ye Suping is? She’s my sister. How could she possibly kill me? All your assumptions are wrong. There was never any killing of disciples in the Celestial Fragrance Pavilion. Those are deliberately spread rumors, its purpose being to locate my whereabouts.” Chu Linfeng said.

Nie Ling’er looked at Chu Linfeng, half-believing, and said, ”Are you telling the truth? How could it be? You must be lying to me.”

”Alright, we’ve talked long enough. You should leave now. If people find out you were alone with a man, it wouldn’t be good for your reputation. Do you understand what I mean?” Chu Linfeng laughed.

Nie Ling’er originally wanted to stay longer, but hearing Chu Linfeng’s words, she felt embarrassed to linger. She put on her veil and said, ”Then I’ll leave first. I hope I never encounter you in tomorrow’s match.”

After Nie Ling’er left, Chu Linfeng said with a smile, ”Where do I have the time to think about such romantic affairs now? I can only disappoint your good intentions. If we truly are fated, we’ll think about these things after my Green Frost Sect truly becomes the tenth major sect.”

Chu Linfeng then took out a few Life Essence crystals and began absorbing them. Sitting here, slowly waiting, it’s better to absorb some energy to make the Chaotic Dragon Power more abundant.

After absorbing several Life Essence crystals, the Chaotic Dragon Power within him reached full saturation. At this moment, the Valley of Despair was enveloped in the quiet stillness of night. Many, like Chu Linfeng, quietly absorbed Star Power in the darkness. Given the limited space in the Valley of Despair, it was impossible to accommodate the tens of thousands of people, which everyone understood.

The next day, the exciting moment arrived. Chu Linfeng slowly descended from the hillside. By now, the giant arena in the Valley of Despair was already surrounded by people from various sects.

Chu Linfeng surveyed the scene. Every sect had an assigned spot, with the Nine Major Sects’ locations the most conspicuous at the front, while the weaker sects were at the back. After searching for a long time, he spotted the Green Frost Sect’s banner but did not walk over.

The Green Frost Sect had brought fewer than fifty people this time, with He Juan naturally among them. At this moment, ten people appeared on the arena stage, including the Carefree Palace Master and Ye Suping. It seemed they must be the Sect Masters of the Nine Major Sects and the Valley Master of the Valley of Despair...
