The Gate Of Good Fortune c1-905

  If Cheng Xiaoning truly was Ning Cheng, then when he spoke that he had rescued her from the hands of two Profound Congealing Cultivators, it would really not seem too strange at all. Thinking back to the time when Cheng Xiaoning, a single person, was able to easily take on dozens of Profound Core Cultivators all by himself, and could still leave in a safe and sound manner in both body and spirit, then even if he had the cultivation of Essence Building Realm, how could he fear two small Profound Congealing Cultivators?

  Thinking back to the time when Ning Cheng had spoken to her in an extremely dull tone, Nalan Ruxue simply did not dare to believe it to be true as she subconsciously spoke, “If he truly was being treated unjustly, then he should have gone all out to explain it correctly to me, why was his tone and expression too mild to the point that he was not even bothered by it, moreover why did he show it as if he did not care whether I believed it or not?”

  Zhangsun Yan’s eyes immediately turned red, as she mercilessly spoke out, “Big Brother Ning simply does not care about your gratitude, did you think that he would threaten you to repay the grace he bestowed upon you? If so, then you truly made an enormous error in judging him. Do you think that you will forever be a peerless beauty? Elder Sister Ji is many times more beautiful than you. If Elder Brother Ning wanted to take a liking to someone, then he would have definitely taken a liking to Elder Sister Ji.”

  Jia Lingwei immediately beckoned with her hand, motioning Zhangsun Yan to stop talking as she spoke up, “Yan Yan, you should not say something like that. Ruxue had not done it intentionally, moreover it is completely normal to be misunderstood in that sort of situation. Ruxue, you will have to speak out clearly about that situation, so that we all can have a look into what was the matter?”

  At this time, Nalan Ruxue’s mind was roaring with thunderous explosions, if Ning Cheng was really the person who had saved her at that time, then it was just as Ning Cheng had spoken about her being just ungrateful was really something too light of a word for her. This was the reason, that only she could understand. At that time when Ning Cheng had said that she was ungrateful because he had ended up using a life protecting magical weapon. Now that she thought about it, Ning Cheng’s life protecting magical weapon was definitely that Escaping Talisman that he had used to escape. What if a moment ago Ning Cheng still had this Talisman, would he have been swept away by the waves from the Blood River?

  At this moment Nalan Ruxue no longer had the kind of calm and self-confident feel to her from a moment ago, and was feeling completely helpless and was even somewhat frightened into inaction as she spoke up, “At that time there was an accident in the Angry Axe Valley. I was transferred out from the Angry Axe Valley and had just fell to the ground when I was sneak attacked by a person. As to who made the sneak attack on me, I was not able to see. I guess, that they should also have been an acquaintance that had entered the Angry Axe Valley…… Afterwards at the time when I woke up, I saw Ning Cheng pressing his hand over my chest, I ……”

  Afterwards what happened, Nalan Ruxue did not need to speak about it, as Jia Lingwei and Zhangsun Yan already knew about it.

  Originally they had also regarded Ning Cheng as a lecher, as such Nalan Ruxue simply did not think of any other reason. But now it was completely different as she herself was starting to doubt herself. She suddenly felt that this matter suddenly had a lot of suspicious points in it.

  Jia Lingwei sighed and spoke, “I already know about the matter with the Angry Axe Valley, as after the accident, all the people were transmitted out in a random manner and at random exits. What I want to ask you is that at the time when you woke up, how far away were you from the Angry Axe Valley and how long were you out?”

  “It seemed to have been for several days….” Nalan Ruxue spoke as her face immediately turned pale.

  Jia Lingwei did not speak again, but Nalan Ruxue had already understood. If Ning Cheng really wanted to do those kinds of things with her, then would he have waited for the time she woke up? She was in the middle of a coma for several days, even if he wanted to do more than a hundred perverted acts on her, she could not have resisted it at all. But the fact was that she was completely safe and sound, and her body had not been violated at all.

  “Senior Apprentice Sister Lingwei…….” Nalan Ruxue’s words were somewhat dry. She suddenly felt that she was the one who was extremely shameless. It could clearly be imagined as to why Ning Cheng had spoken to her like that at time. Even she was despising herself in her heart for being this kind of woman. Fortunately, Master Shu had not ended up in killing Ning Cheng, but thinking that Ning Cheng was forced to use his Escaping Talisman at that time, leading to him being swallowed by the Blood River, it was the same as indicating that Ning Cheng was killed by her own hands.

  Jia Lingwei patted Nalan Ruxue’s arm and spoke, “Junior Apprentice Sister Ruxue, for the thing that you owe Ning Cheng, there is no use for guilt. Ning Cheng had saved you from the hands of two Profound Congealing Cultivators, if you are able to recall their names, then we can definitely look for those two Profound Congealing Cultivators and see if Ning Cheng had killed them. If not, then you can definitely help in killing them in future. As to the matters that Ning Cheng has not yet finished, in the future you can help him accomplish it, it would definitely make it up for you not losing your innocence. In fact, it is not only you who owe him, don’t we all owe it to Ning Cheng?”

  “I only know of a person called Sikong Kai….” Just as Nalan Ruxue spoke till here, her mind immediately went blank, she suddenly did not know what steps should be taken next.

  “Sikong Kai? I know this person.” Cheng Yixiao’s hearty voice immediately arrived, he was in a good mood, as he had already collected a pair of Blood River Red Lotuses.

  “Yi, Junior Apprentice Sister Zhangsun Yan, what is the matter with you? Where is Junior Apprentice Sister Ji?” Cheng Yixiao quickly realized that the atmosphere all around did not feel right, Zhangsun Yan’s eye were red, and Yan Ji had also disappeared.

  Jia Lingwei spoke in a gloomy voice, “Junior Apprentice Sister Ji has been swept away by the Blood River……”

  “…..” Cheng Yixiao’s mouth dropped open, and only after a good long while did he manage to speak, “What the hell went on here?”

  Jia Lingwei once again recounted all the things that happened till the point that Yan Ji moved to save Ning Cheng.

  Hearing that Ning Cheng and Yan Ji both were swept away by the Blood River, Cheng Yixiao gave out a deep sigh, as he turned towards the Blood River Peak from which Ning Cheng was swept away and gave a deep bow and spoke, “Elder Brother Cheng, whether or not you are a Devil Cultivator, you action and behaviour have made you this Cheng Yixiao’s role model. Please accept this Cheng Yixiao’s salute.”

  Seeing Cheng Yixiao offer a salute from the bottom of his heart, the two cultivators behind Cheng Yixiao, also followed suite as they cupped their fists and gave a deep bow. Their lives were saved by Ning Cheng, now that Ning Cheng had fallen, it was only right and proper to offer a respectful salute to Ning Cheng.

  Jia Lingwei and Zhangsun Yan also followed suite as they bowed towards the Blood River Peak from where Ning Cheng was swept away, only Nalan Ruxue did not move as she was completely frozen over and was feeling completely helpless.

  Jia Lingwei saw this and darkly sighed in her heart, she knew that at this time Nalan Ruxue’s heart was tied in a knot, in the future it was highly likely that she would not even be able to exceed the Profound Congealing Realm. Seeing the other three people collecting the Blood River Red Lotuses in a distance, Jia Lingwei was just about to make the proposal to leave this place, when suddenly she heard Nalan Ruxue speak, “Senior Apprentice Brother Cheng, I want to ask you, how do you know that Sikong Kai? Just who is that Sikong Kai?”

  Cheng Yixiao pondered for a moment before finally answering, “I know Sikong Kai from an auction that I attended, at that time he was accompanied by a companion. His companion at that time was Hang Jiaojiao who had c
ome together with us on the airship, at that time I was only in the Intermediate Stages of the Profound Congealing Realm, as to his origins I am not clear about it……”

  Hearing that Hang Jiaojiao was Sikong Kai’s companion, Nalan Ruxue’s face completely turned stagnant, she finally thoroughly came to understand what had happened.

  No wonder Ning Cheng who had changed his appearance to Cheng Xiaoning, had called out to Hang Jiaojiao to “Fuck Off”. Only now could she easily make the connection, that was because Ning Cheng had saved her from the hands of Sikong Kai and Hang Jiaojiao.

  Moreover, in the cabin hall, not only did she not help her saviour Ning Cheng, but had instead helped that Hang Jiaojiao to speak out against him. Cultivating this kind of behaviour, she estimated that in Ning Cheng’s eyes she was a woman that was inferior to even trash.

  She once again recalled Yue Ying’s words, as her words once again resounded inside her mind.

  “Senior Apprentice Sister Ruxue, you definitely misunderstood Big Brother Ning. Big Brother Ning is not that kind of a person, I and Big Brother Ning have lived in the same room for almost a year, in a way you can say that he is someone who I know best. If he really was the kind of person that you make him out to be, then I would have long since become his…….”

  “Senior Apprentice Sister Ruxue, I have also heard other people saying that Big Brother Ning is not a good person, but they all misunderstood him. However, after living together with him, I realized that he really was not the kind of person that the others had made him out to be, please believe in Big Brother Ning. At that time, perhaps because of some other reasons, it had led to you misunderstanding Big Brother Ning’s intentions.”

  “Big Brother Ning said that sometimes what one sees is not necessarily the truth, initially I could have never understood this fact, but after Big Brother Ning explained it me, I was able to realize it….”

  It was true that she had not investigated what the truth was, as such when she saw Ning Cheng call out to Hang Jiaojiao to “Fuck Off”, and because she was already feeling irritated in her heart, she had come out on her own initiative to help Hang Jiaojiao. Maybe the fact was, that Ning Cheng had already known that Hang Jiaojiao was already the other nefarious cultivator, and was trying to do her a favour.

  But even if Ning Cheng had explained it to her at that time, would she have believed it? In fact, after she had arrived at the Dragon and Phoenix Academy, Ning Cheng had explained it to her in clear resounding words, but she could never believe any of the words spoken by Ning Cheng at that time. If previously Ning Cheng had stood at the entrance to the valley, and spoke that he was going through the blue stone doors by himself, and even kill of all the Profound Core Cultivators blocking the path, would she have believed it?

  She knew that she would have definitely not believed Ning Cheng’s words at that time. Then why did Yan Ji believe in him? Moreover, even take the initiative to stand up to help him, how could Yan Ji be so far removed from her?

  “Senior Apprentice Sister Ruxue. Are you alright?” Cheng Yixiao saw that Nalan Ruxue’s eyes and expression were really peculiar, and hurriedly asked her a question.

  Nalan Ruxue immediately jolted her mind awake, finally sobering up, just what kind of things was she thinking aah? How could she make a contrast against Yan Ji at this time?

  “Senior Apprentice Brother Cheng, I want to ask you something.” Nalan Ruxue suddenly turned serious and asked Cheng Yixiao.

  Cheng Yixiao did not seem to understand what Nalan Ruxue seemed to have meant, but his natural disposition was that of being straightforward. Not to say about a Junior Sister Apprentice from the same Academy, even if it were an ordinary person who asked him for his help, he would have still extended his hand, “Junior Apprentice Sister Ruxue, please speak your mind, we both are disciples from the Wu Nian Academy, if you have anything to ask then ask. If I am in a position to help you, then I will definitely help you out with the best of my abilities.”

  “Before, I had ended up falling into the hands of Hang Jiaojiao and Sikong Kai, and was almost close to being sullied. That Hang Jiaojiao has also arrived at the Law’s Way with us, I want to ask Senior Apprentice Brother Cheng that if he meets Hang Jiaojiao, then can you help me get a hold of her, I have a few questions that I want to ask her.” Nalan Ruxue bowed as she pleaded.

  Cheng Yixiao’s eyebrows immediately picked up, as he spoke out in an angry tone, “This person unexpectedly dares to lay a hand on the disciples of my Wu Nian Academy, even if Junior Apprentice Sister Ruxue had not spoken about it, once I came to know about it, then I will definitely not let her go.”

  ……

  Ning Cheng had been walking in this vast and silent empty area filled with black sandy gravel for over two hours, the only thing under his foot beside it was bones and remains of magical weapons. Other than those there was nothing else here. The same scene was playing out within the scope of his Spiritual Consciousness. Ning Cheng simply took out a chair and sat down then and there.

  The sands under his feet extended up till the eyes to could see. And all around his surroundings, it was completely empty, he was the only person sitting amongst the middle of the sands, if one drew a picture of him, then wouldn’t it end up as a work of art?

  Ning Cheng was just casually thinking, that perhaps one day he would also become dried bones scattered all around this place, then someone would take out a chair and sit above his bleached bones.

  Ning Cheng had no idea as to what he should do now, not to say that he was not in the mood to practice cultivation, even if he was in the mood to cultivate, he did not dare to cultivate. Although he was a cultivator, but there was not even a scrap of Spiritual Qi here, once he ran out of Spirit Stones, what would he do then?

  “Or I can peacefully stay here for another 200-400 years.” Ning Cheng muttered to himself, for a Profound Core Cultivator the highest life span recorded was about 400 years.

  Immediately Ning Cheng shook his head again, maybe before he even got to the end of his life, he might have already gone insane.

  Or he could still continue with his Alchemy practice, but just Alchemy had no use in here, once he used up all the Spiritual Grasses, then what was he supposed to do then? Besides if he could not get out of this place, then what use would be of Alchemy? Go into seclusion? He only had 5,000,000 Spirit Stones, these Spirit Stones for him would soon run out,

  Ning Cheng sat there alone for quite a long while, finally putting away the chair, he decided to first clear up the confusion of if this place was really as endless as it appeared to be.

  Afraid that Grey Toottoot would be stifled, Ning Cheng took out Grey Toottoot from his Storage Bag, and put him on his shoulders. Then bringing out a flight type magic weapon, he prepared himself to go look for an exit.

  Ning Cheng quickly discovered, that as long as he flew above a certain height, he would immediately be suppressed. But if he flew forward below a certain height, then no matter how long he flew, the environment was all the same along with the same deathly silence all around him. After continuously flying for ten days, Ning Cheng finally put away the flight type magical weapon, he felt that something was wrong, even if this place was extremely huge, he was still continuously flying forward for ten days, it was simply impossible for this kind of place to go on endlessly.

  Just as Ning Cheng felt that something was strange, his Spiritual Consciousness unexpectedly found a cultivator in its sweep. Similar to him, this cultivator was walking on the black sand in a particular direction.

  Ning Cheng immediately became wild with joy, and immediately stimulated his Twin Heavenly Cloud Wings as he rushed towards him.

  “This fiend, were you also swept here by the whi
rlpools in the Blood River?” Ning Cheng had not yet arrived at the front of this cultivator, when he excitedly called out from behind.

  However, Ning Cheng’s heart quickly turned cold, this person’s entire body was covered in rags and completely dirty, it was even sloppier than a beggar that lived on the streets. Not only that, he was so weak and emaciated that he almost looked like a bamboo pole. If Ning Cheng had not seen a Storage Ring on one of his hand, then he would have truly suspected if this person was really a cultivator.

  He did not seem to have heard Ning Cheng’s questioning, and was walking barefoot while muttering what seemed to be a prayer.

  Ning Cheng got a bit closer to him, and could finally hear what this cultivator was mumbling about, “Without even the wind around, forming a sharp contrast, for the benefit of the first visitor, having a dark red color, for the wood and wind…… Chains of cloud arrays, those clouds attached to the heavens, should bring down red thunder……”

  Ning Cheng was already a Tier 3 Array Formation Master, as such as soon as he heard the words of this person he immediately understood that this person was studying an Array Formation.

  Looking at this man gradually go far away while still mumbling, he did not continue to follow this man, he knew that this man was studying some sort of an Array Formation in this place for a long time, and had ended up succumbing to his inner devils finally going crazy.

  In the meantime, he also realized his own position, it finally hit him that he definitely was in the middle of an Array Formation. Moreover, this Array Formation might actually turn out to be a Natural Array Formation. If he could one day figure out this Array Formation, then perhaps he would be able to exit this place. If he was unable to figure out this Array Formation, then he might as well become something similar to the person who just passed him by a moment ago.
