inquiry, Lu Yaoyao shook her head triumphantly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Last time we returned from the border, you always made a detour to the academy to inquire about Luo's news.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Today, that Ji Xifeng said he was entrusted by Lin Daochen's Master Lin, I guess there must be a clue about Luo.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhou Qing rubbed his forehead helplessly, still trying to persuade: \"This trip might be dangerous, you should stay with Master Lu and focus on your cultivation...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Master Lu and the others are too busy right now, I can't even meet them.\" Lu Yaoyao pouted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"And last time in Kunpeng Palace, you said that I am your little lucky star.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She blinked, \"Maybe bringing me along will make it easier to find Senior Sister.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhou Qing hesitated after hearing this.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, Lu Yaoyao already spotted the old hen standing on Zhou Qing's shoulder, and immediately stomped her foot in mock anger: \"You'd rather take a chicken with you than me, right?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The old hen seemed to understand, dissatisfiedly \"clucked\" and pecked at Zhou Qing's ear with its beak.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Alright, alright, let's go together.\" Zhou Qing finally compromised.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Yaoyao immediately beamed with joy and patted her chest in assurance: \"I am now at the Late Stage of Nascent Soul Realm, and my Realm has some semblance, I won't hold you back.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhou Qing shook his head helplessly, took out the Flying Ship, and after they boarded, headed to the Teleportation Array of Lingyun Mansion...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Two months later!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A dust-covered Flying Ship slowly descended outside the White Jade Taixu Courtyard.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhou Qing put away the Flying Ship and looked at the desolate scene in front of him, feeling a tightness in his chest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The once bustling academy was now deserted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yellow fallen leaves covered the green stone steps, untended.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wild vines climbed over the courtyard walls, and several half-open windows creaked in the wind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The whole academy resembled an aging old man, quietly awaiting his final moments.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"How could it be like this...\" Lu Yaoyao murmured softly, unconsciously clenching her palm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In fact, the day after Lu Yuanzhi arrived at Taiqing Sect, Zhou Qing had a detailed conversation about the academy with her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>According to Master Lu, the dean Weng Yunqi was not from the Holy Martial Dynasty, but likely a powerful figure from the Fifth-level Cultivation Country, the Celestial Fate Sacred Dynasty.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He came here only to heal, and now that his injuries have healed, it is natural for him to return home.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for why the academy was to be disbanded, the reasons were unknown.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When she followed her eldest sister to Taiqing Sect, many mentors had already been poached by other sects with high salaries.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And the students returned home one after another after the Vast Mansion, Southwest Two Domains battle ended.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Zhou Qing's Divine Sense swept over, the large academy was empty.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Most of the disciples had already left, only a few scattered figures were still lingering, seemingly reluctant to leave this former place of cultivation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Let's go.\" Zhou Qing said softly, then led Lu Yaoyao familiarly to Lin Daochen's residence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Turning a few corridors, the sight made Zhou Qing's heart ache.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the small courtyard where Master Lin resided, he held a broom, sweeping the fallen leaves scattered all around.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This former spirited Array Master now seemed slightly hunched from behind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If it doesn't work out, just invite him to Taiqing Sect.\" Zhou Qing secretly decided.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just then, Lin Daochen, sensing something, slowly lifted his head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When he saw who had come, his cloudy eyes suddenly lit up:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You've come!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The simple three words made Zhou Qing's nose sour.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He hurried forward, saluting alongside Lu Yaoyao:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Greetings, Master Lin.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the stone table in the courtyard, Lin Daochen took out an Imaging Stone emitting a faint blue light from his Storage Bag and gently pushed it in front of Zhou Qing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Over the years, he had used many of his accumulated connections to inquire about Zhou Qing's second senior sister.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just recently, someone accidentally got this image from a Golden Core Realm practitioner, in the picture appeared figures suspected to be Luo Lingling and the White Crane.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Zhou Qing needed to see for himself to be sure.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhou Qing hurriedly grabbed the Imaging Stone, his fingertips slightly trembling.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the Spiritual Power was infused, a blurred image projected into the air.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Everyone watch closely, this is the exciting scene I risked my life to leave for you!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A deliberately lowered voice of an elder came from the image, \"Right now, it's a battle between Divinity Transformation Realm old monsters, look at this aura, this pressure…\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The image shook violently, vaguely showing an old man in a gray robe sneakily crouching among the stones.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the image shifted, two figures flashed across the distance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was a man and a woman, also lurking at the battlefield's edge.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When the woman seemed to sense something and turned her head, Zhou Qing's heart almost stopped.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Second Senior Sister!\" he exclaimed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The woman in the image making a \"shh\" gesture with her finger was none other than the long-missing Luo Lingling!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And in the image, many seemed to be engaged in battle, the elder only recorded for a while before being caught in the fighting, fleeing in panic.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhou Qing eagerly looked up: \"Master Lin, where is this?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Daochen sighed softly, then slowly spoke.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You should be aware of the situation on this side of Vast Mansion. Initially, it was a chaos among the six major sects of the Western Domain, but within just a year, it was suppressed and ended by the strongest, Mixed Element Sect.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But shortly after, for unknown reasons, the Western Domain and the seven major sects of the Southern Domain inexplicably began fighting again.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"And the most intense and frequent battles occur at the junction of the Southwest Two Domains—Witch Ancestor Mountain Range.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhou Qing heard this and nodded silently.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course he knew this. At the time, after his Overbearing Realm took shape, he originally planned to strengthen and refine it by heading there to \"schedule fights\" for honing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was information revealed by Zhang Wanbao, saying that Divinity Transformation Realm experts frequently appeared there.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But just as he prepared to set off, Second Uncle returned.\u003C\u002Fp>",1052,"2026-06-09T06:34:18.808Z",1,"novelbin.me","946f3af29e27a9bc160e0c6fe7e17bc7842907c789bc6ee1b3300247ed920628","the-sect-leader-has-taken-in-a-new-female-discip-chapter-1018","the-sect-leader-has-taken-in-a-new-female-discip-chapter-1016",1176,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fthe-sect-leader-has-taken-in-a-new-female-discip-cover.jpg"]
