Chapter 179 Linglong Cloud Sea

Leaving the spirit pool, Qian Yunrou led the way.

Soon, seven or eight disciples of the Linglong Holy Land passed by. The moment they saw Lu Changsheng, they froze in their tracks.

A long while later, one of the disciples snapped out of her daze.

"Did you see that just now?"

"I did."

"What did you see?"

"A man! A man so handsome, ahhh!"

"How can there be such a handsome man in our Linglong Holy Land?"

"Heavens, I saw an immortal! He's simply overflowing with immortal aura."

"Yes, he's a perfect match for the Holy Maiden."

"Who is that man? How can he be so handsome? I'm done for."

"??????"

"If I could find such a handsome man to be my husband, why would I even bother cultivating?"

"Hey, did you guys notice? The Holy Maiden and that handsome immortal seemed to come out together."

"Yeah? So what? What's the problem?"

"They seem to have come out of the spirit pool together, right?"

One of the disciples finally realized and said this.

In an instant, the seven or eight of them were stunned on the spot, each with a dumbfounded expression.

After a long while, voices rang out again.

"Could it be that they...?"

"Hiss! The Holy Maiden cultivates the Tai Shang Wang Qing Da Dao (Path of Supreme Emptiness of Emotion), who would have thought she'd be so uninhibited?"

"As expected of the Holy Maiden, we must learn from her."

"A romantic rendezvous! Heavens, who knew the Holy Maiden had learned this trick?"

"Heavens, it's unimaginable! How happy would one be, frolicking in the water with such a handsome man? I can't take it anymore, I'm going back now."

These women were all very beautiful.

But unfortunately, this was the Linglong Holy Land, which didn't allow outside disciples, nor did it allow Linglong Holy Land disciples to have any feelings for disciples from other holy lands, unless they were well-matched in social status, or genuinely in love.

Otherwise, if they fell in love carelessly, they would be expelled from the sect at best, and have their cultivation crippled before being expelled at worst.

It wasn't that the Linglong Holy Lord's thinking was twisted, but that in the early years, many disciples of the Linglong Holy Land were indeed in love with others, but unfortunately, many of them were not happy after marrying out, and some even died for love.

In the end, the Linglong Holy Lord flew into a rage and killed all these unfaithful people, and at the same time, forbade her disciples from getting involved in any romantic affairs.

After an incense stick of time, Lu Changsheng arrived at Linglong Cloud Sea.

This was the highest place in the Linglong Holy Land.

The sea of clouds surged, and the setting sun scattered a few strands of light red sunlight, covering the sea of clouds, making it look extremely beautiful.

Besides Qian Yunrou, there was only Lu Changsheng on the viewing platform.

He quietly looked at the sea of clouds, and his mood became inexplicably calm.

These days, going to the various holy lands was just eating and drinking. Along the way, in order to hurry, he basically had no time to look at these scenery.

To be honest, his heart was difficult to settle.

But at this moment, Lu Changsheng rarely felt at peace.

Standing on the viewing platform, looking into the distance, it was a pity that there was no lake or birds, otherwise, he could have said,

"The falling霞 (xiá, rosy clouds) flies with the lone 鹜 (wù, wild duck), the autumn water shares a single hue with the long sky."

But Lu Changsheng, who had still read a few years of books, quietly watched the magnificent scene of the sea of clouds, and couldn't help but slowly open his mouth and say,

"Lonely clouds ride the heavenly wind, flying into the mountain on the sea."

"The sound of pine trees sends forth drums and trumpets, guiding me to ascend the layered ridges."

"All my life I've dreamed of misty clouds, they truly lie among the rocks and valleys."

"Now that I'm lazy in all things, I deliberately take three days of leisure."

Lu Changsheng spoke slowly. Although it wasn't perfectly appropriate, it was still acceptable.

The magnificent scenery of the sea of clouds was unbelievably beautiful.

At the same time, Qian Yunrou slowly came to Lu Changsheng's side and said, "Senior Brother Changsheng, Junior Sister has a question, may I ask for your guidance?"

"Junior Sister, feel free to speak."

Lu Changsheng said calmly, while also being a little curious about what kind of question this otherworldly junior sister could have.

"What is qing (情, emotion)?"

Qian Yunrou's gaze was extremely calm, but also full of curiosity.

She had been very confused during this time, and had never understood what qing meant.

Uh... Lu Changsheng wasn't exactly ignorant of this question.

After all, although he was a high-quality single cultivator, Lu Changsheng had never experienced any emotions, but that didn't affect him bumbling on.

He slowly took a breath.

Lu Changsheng's gaze looked towards the sea of clouds in the distance.

Then he opened his mouth and said.

"Qing (情, emotion) is something that hurts people."

He said in a very sad tone, appearing with an unspeakable desolation.

"Why?"

Qian Yunrou didn't understand what this meant, and couldn't help but become more curious.

"Junior Sister, the world bustles, all for qing; the world bustles about, all for qing!"

"Qing is an unspeakable thing. Only when you have emotions for someone can you understand what qing is."

This statement was no different from saying nothing at all, but emotions were like this. Many people understand the truth, but they are unwilling to see it clearly.

"Then how can one be moved by qing?"

Qian Yunrou seemed very curious.

"Over time, qing grows."

Lu Changsheng thought for a moment, then answered seriously.

"Staying together for a long time will produce emotions?"

Qian Yunrou's eyes were full of curiosity.

"Not necessarily. There's also something called 'one day', oh, no, 'a love at first sight'."

Lu Changsheng answered seriously.

"I don't understand." Qian Yunrou shook her head, she still couldn't understand.

But Lu Changsheng smiled. He subconsciously rubbed Qian Yunrou's head, then opened his mouth and said, "You don't understand because you haven't met someone you like yet. When you meet someone you like, you'll understand."

His smile was very gentle and full of affinity. The setting sun fell on him, and his handsome face seemed to have an unspeakable feeling.

Above the sea of clouds, a gentle breeze blew.

It dispersed the sea of clouds, and also stirred the corners of their clothes.

The bells on the four corners of the viewing platform swayed slightly, sending out a clear sound, jingling and jangling, causing people to involuntarily calm down.

"Then what does it feel like to like someone?"

Qian Yunrou continued to ask.

"What does it feel like?"

"If you really like someone, your mind will be filled with everything about her, not caring about all her problems, nor caring about any of her shortcomings. You will laugh heartily when you are together, and cry sadly when you are apart. From then on, your heart will be concerned, your thoughts will drift to the distance, and when you meet again, a thousand words may only turn into one sentence: 'You've lost weight again'."

Lu Changsheng answered calmly.

Qian Yunrou was thoughtful.

Afterwards, she didn't ask any more questions, but just quietly looked at the sea of clouds.

Then she quietly glanced at Lu Changsheng.

Finally, she looked at the sea of clouds again.

Everything seemed very quiet.

The scenery was beautiful.

The people were also beautiful.

Changsheng was good.

Yunrou was also good.

Both were beautiful.
