Chapter 426: The Most Beautiful Girl Under the Skies
“Yes.” Ling Wushang did not actually feel the least bit strange that Ling Chuxi was shocked.
“Where is she?” Ling Chuxi asked urgently and grabbed Ling Wushang’s hand.
“This was also left by Mother for you. She said that if you want to find her one day, this can give you some clues.” Ling Wushang took out a stone bead which was pitch black and passed it to Ling Chuxi.
Ling Chuxi accepted the stone bead and gently rubbed it. No matter how she looked at it or how she felt it, this stone bead was so dull and had nothing special about it. There was not much difference with the small stones that could be picked up anywhere by the road. It was just that it had been polished until it was smooth and sparkling. It felt very cool when she held it in the palm of her hand.
There was a tiny hole in the center of the stone bead. A strand of almost completely transparent fine silk thread was tied through it.
Ling Chuxi studied it for quite a while, but she could not figure out what was unusual about the stone bead. She reckoned that there was definitely a secret hidden within, but she certainly could not unlock it in such a short period. Therefore, she then slid it onto her wrist first.
Ling Chuxi frowned. She had already met her elder brother, but there were even more mysteries in her heart now. Who was really her mother? And why did she make such an arrangement? There were many matters that even Elder Brother was not aware of! She needed to find out the answers herself.
“Oh right, Elder Brother. Why did you appear here?” Ling Chuxi lifted her head and asked Ling Wushang.
“I had originally wanted to find you. But when I reached this place, I could vaguely feel the signs of a breakthrough. So I rested and stayed here a while. In the end, I actually saw you being chased by someone.” Ling Wushang said.
This time Ling Chuxi understood why she had an unusual feeling upon entering this dense forest. It turned out that it was her Elder Brother’s breakthrough which was near at hand that was the reason for the extraordinary lingering charm permeating in the dense forest.
“Then Elder Brother, did you manage to breakthrough successfully?” Ling Chuxi asked, somewhat worried.
“No.” Ling Wushang gently shook his head.
Ling Chuxi immediately understood that she and Ye Qianhe had intruded and interrupted Ling Wushang’s breakthrough. She felt guilty deep down. She clearly knew that an opportunity was needed in order to breakthrough. A breakthrough could not be achieved as one wished and was not as simple as putting great effort into cultivation. She recalled that extraordinary lingering charm when she had intruded the dense forest earlier on and the scene when Ling Wushang had easily defeated Ye Qianhe. She could absolutely imagine how tyrannical Ling Wushang’s cultivation was now. If he had a further breakthrough upward, how strong would he be? However, he had to interrupt his breakthrough just to save her. Such a precious and valuable opportunity was gone just like this.
“Little fool, you don’t need to feel guilty.” Ling Wushang could see the guilt in Ling Chuxi and smiled while reaching forth his hand to tap Ling Chuxi’s nose intimately. “You must believe in your Elder Brother and what kind of person your Elder Brother is. If there is no breakthrough this time, then there will definitely be a breakthrough the next time.”
“Stop tapping. My nose will turn into a flat nose.” Ling Chuxi retorted while subconsciously covering her nose. She froze when she had just finished speaking. A familiar feeling surged within her. It was as if there was someone who had always made fun of her like this deep in her memories. She would always protest like this and that person would always coax her. That was she and Ling Wushang during their childhood. It seemed like another piece of her memory was gradually being recovered and pieced together.
“How would it be flat? My family’s little Chuxi is the most beautiful girl under the sky.” Ling Wushang rubbed Ling Chuxi’s head and said with a smile with his eyes squinted.
“I am the most beautiful girl on the premise that my hair is not rubbed into a chicken nest by you.” Ling Chuxi glared at Ling Wushang and said angrily, ‘Don’t think I don’t know that my hair has been rubbed by Ling Wushang into an authentic explosive chicken nest now.’
