The Unbeatable Uncle-Grandmaster
Chapter 257: Return of the Divine Maiden
"Senior, are you there?"
Long Zhan stood outside the courtyard and raised his voice.
However, no one responded.
"Senior?"
Long Zhan frowned.
Still, no one responded.
Soon, Long Zhan had a bad premonition.
Long Zhan wondered if Qin Jue had left.
However, he soon realized that it was impossible. After all, he had arranged for more than ten Great Sage Stage experts to monitor Qin Jue's residence. How could Qin Jue leave without telling anyone?
Just as Long Zhan was about to rush over to investigate, Qin Jue's lazy voice suddenly sounded. "What's the problem?"
Long Zhan was stunned for a moment before sighing in relief. He seems to think too much.
“Senior, I just received word that His Holiness the Holy One will be back in ten days, so I specifically came to tell you.”
"Ten days?"
In the pavilion, Qin Jue thought for a moment and said, “Alright, I understand. Thank you." Thank you."
With that said, Qin Jue ignored Long Zhan and took out a pot of spirit wine to drink.
Originally, Qin Jue did not plan to wait for Long Xiaoyu at all, but because of Long Zhui, she needed to stay a few more days and was in no hurry to leave.
“…”
On the other hand, Long Zhan was somewhat depressed. He had not expected that from the beginning to the end, Qin Jue had no intention of letting him in. He could only slowly retreat.
However, after retreating out of the courtyard, a black figure immediately appeared beside him and said, "Older!"
"Did you find anything?"
ask Long Zhan.
"No."
The black figure shook his head and said, "From yesterday until now, that human has not come out half a step from the courtyard."
“Continue monitoring. Immediately let me know if something happens.”
Long Zhan instructed.
"Yes!"
The black figure slightly distorted and gradually disappeared.
After a long silence, Long Zhan murmured to himself, "Any thing, could it be that Sacred Lord actually has a human friend?"
Although he had personally seen the identity jade tablet in Qin Jue's hands, Long Zhan was still full of doubts and unwilling to believe it.
This time, he had only told Qin Jue that Long Xiaoyu would return in ten days to test Qin Jue's reaction.
If Qin Jue had lied about being Long Xiaoyu's friend, Long Zhan believed that Qin Jue would definitely be scared after hearing the news of Long Xiaoyu's return. Long Zhan thought that Qin Jue might even escape all night to avoid being hit on the spot and dying without a grave.
But Qin Jue's tone of voice did not sound panicked at all. It was as if he had heard something insignificant.
Even if he did not see Qin Jue's expression, Long Zhan knew that he must have been very indifferent.
"We can only wait for Her Highness the Holy Girl to return."
Long Zhan sighed.
For a Great Void Stage expert like him, ten days would pass in the blink of an eye. Most importantly, Long Zhan did not know what Qin Jue cultivation was, so he did not need to take unnecessary risks.
In the next few days, Qin Jue stayed in the courtyard and did not come out. He either sleeps or drinks wine. Sometimes, he would catch some fish and small animals to roast. He felt relaxed and satisfied staying here, making him barely want to leave.
Meanwhile, Qin Jue also used her spirit senses to pay attention to Long Zhui.
It had to be said that Long Zhui was very careful. He did not even tell Long Ming about his encounter with Qin Jue and continued to pretend that he was seriously injured to prevent anyone from detecting anything wrong.
After several days of adaptation, Long Zhui's blood qi finally reached its peak. He seemed to be able to control the world spirit qi with each of his movements.
If not for the fact that he was unwilling to expose himself, Long Zhui really wanted to run to the Guild of Elders to test what level his bloodline had reached.
Unknowingly, ten days passed quickly. During this time, Qin Jue went to look for Long Zhui and directly helped him advance from the late phase to the peak of the Great Saint Stage. After which, Long Zhui was so happy that he danced happily and could barely resist hugging and kissing her.
Shaking his head with a bitter smile, Qin Jue put Yun Xi aside and then stood up to leave.
As usual, the spirit qi in the courtyard was extremely refined, making it feel like heaven. In these ten days, Qin Jue had scoured the entire place and lost interest.
"Ha, I'll eat something first."
Stretching lazily, Qin Jue focused her attention on a rabbit in a distant forest.
As he said before, there were mountains and rivers in this courtyard, so there was certainly no shortage of animals. Moreover, this was no ordinary animal. Any little rabbit here possessed strength comparable to an Earth Stage demon monster.
Not long after, the cute bunny was skinned and pulled out by Qin Jue. He roasted it on the fire, emitting a seductive scent.
Unfortunately, before Qin Jue could sense it, Long Zhan's voice suddenly sounded from outside. "Senior, are you there?"
"What's that?" Qin Jue said impatiently.
"Your Majesty the Divine Girl has returned."
Qin Jue was stunned. Come to think of it, it has already been ten days. Hence, his figure flashed and he appeared in front of Long Zhan with a roasted rabbit.
"Let's go."
Qin Jue tore off a piece of rabbit meat and stuffed it into his mouth.
Ever since he came back, there was no harm in meeting him.
Long Zhan was stunned. He looked at the grilled meat in Qin Jue's hand and then looked at Qin Jue. "This is…"
“Oh, I caught a rabbit from the inside. Wh why? Do you want to eat it too?” Qin Jue said casually.
Long Zhan was confused.
The corner of his eyes twitched a little. If he did not misremember, there were indeed many rabbits in this courtyard, but wasn't it meant to be admired?
He did not believe that Qin Jue had roasted it and was currently eating it.
Long Zhan wondered if he saw anything properly.
"Uhuk uhuk, Senior, please follow me."
Long Zhan forced a smile and lowered his head.
No matter what, Long Zhan was still a Great Void Stage expert. There was no way he would eat a rabbit meant to be admired.
Qin Jue did not care about this and continued to eat his grilled meat.
Under Long Zhan's lead, the two of them quickly landed on the stone platform. This was a high-level teleportation array formation that could help them traverse millions of kilometers in an instant.
Since the White Dragon World was too big, even a Great Void Stage expert would take a long time to get around. Hence, teleportation array formations were set up everywhere to shorten the time it took to travel long distances.
The Qin Jue area was currently in the border area of the White Dragon World. In other words, the two of them had to pick up some teleportation arrays before they could get to where Long Xiaoyu was.
After all, Long Xiaoyu was the Holy maiden of the White Dragon Race, so she naturally stayed in the core area of the White Dragon World.
"No need to go through so much trouble."
Qin Jue spread her spirit senses and quickly grasped Long Xiaoyu's aura and precise location. Then he grabbed onto Long Zhan and instantly disappeared from where he came from.
When Long Zhan regained his senses, he felt his legs limp and almost kneeled on the ground.
For a moment, he forgot who he was and where he was.
She's confused.
Long Zhan opened his eyes in confusion, not knowing what to do.
“Mm? Who are you?”
A voice filled with endless dignity suddenly exploded in Long Zhan's ears. The pitiful Long Zhan had yet to react to what happened when his vision darkened and he fainted.
Qin Jue:”...”
Qin Jue was confused as to why Long Zhan had fainted.
Without saying a word, Qin Jue looked at the person who had just spoken. He was a handsome and delicate middle-aged man. His figure was tall and straight, deep and broad. Just by standing there, he gave off an incomparable feeling.
The last time Qin Jue faced such a situation was when she met Long Zhen.
However, Long Zhen had the aura of a main character, but the man before him did not.
“Eh? Senior, you are here!
