The Immortal Wife Is Like A Cloud-Chapter 901: If She Can’t Be Found, Then Don’t Participate

“Alright!”

Seeing Su Jingzhen’s worried expression, Little Ling naturally had no objections.

At this moment, Qiu Yaoyao was not in the manor, which Little Ling also knew was highly unusual.

Now, they could only hope that Qiu Yaoyao was still at the main square and hadn’t returned yet.

“Lord Su, is there something urgent? Do you want this servant to help you?”

Just as the two of them stepped out of the courtyard, a maid came forward to greet them.

Several hours had passed since the first round, and the maids were well aware of the results of the competition.

At this moment, their gazes toward Su Jingzhen were filled with fervent admiration.

Su Jingzhen hurriedly asked, “Has Miss Qiu Yaoyao returned after the first round today?”

If Qiu Yaoyao had returned, these maids would undoubtedly know.

Su Jingzhen’s eyes were filled with anticipation.

However, the maid frowned slightly and replied, “To answer your question, my lord, Miss Qiu hasn’t returned. Wasn’t she with you?”

Su Jingzhen’s heart sank once again.

Without responding to the maid, he and Little Ling quickly headed toward the central plaza.

The plaza was still crowded with people, even more crowded than when they were refining pills earlier.

People were streaming in from all directions.

Su Jingzhen headed directly to their previous seating area..

Of course, such near-VIP seats were not something that ordinary people would dare to occupy.

However, the seats were completely empty.

Qiu Yaoyao was nowhere to be seen.

Su Jingzhen’s worries intensified.

After contemplating for a moment, his gaze once again shifted to the Divine Dan Sect’s palace complex in the sky.

At this moment, the gazes of the surrounding crowd began to gather on Su Jingzhen once again.

“Isn’t that Su Jingzhen, the first place winner?”

“Has he already selected his treasures and inherited the Divine Dan Sect’s master’s teachings so quickly?”

“His aura is indeed as extraordinary as the rumors say. I wonder if he has a Dao Companion…”

“Sister Wang, you’re the number one beauty in our Eastern Ming region. If you’re interested, why not give it a try?”

“Since ancient times, it has been said that geniuses are best paired with beauties. Even if this kind of person has multiple companions, it’s only natural.”

“… …”

The crowd grew louder and louder with excitement, and many of those with even a little bit of charm couldn’t help but look at Su Jingzhen with eager eyes.

Some even began to approach him gracefully.

This scene drew scornful glances from Fairy Xuan Su, Han Qianxue, Jian Ling, and others who were still present in the square.

However, seeing Su Jingzhen again at this moment, these women also felt a sense of joy.

They knew that Su Jingzhen and Qiu Yaoyao had previously disappeared with Xuening, or rather the Yunmeng Goddess, and had not yet joined any sect.

The forces behind them had already hinted that it would be highly beneficial if they could recruit Su Jingzhen and his companions.

“These people should take a good look at themselves before they dream of being worthy of my teacher!” Ning Yao, standing next to Fairy Xuan Su, grumbled in dissatisfaction.

Then she blinked her large eyes and looked at Xuan Su. “Only someone like Sister Xuan Su would be a good match for my teacher. Sister Xuan Su, you should go, or someone else might beat you to it.”

Ning Yao clung to Fairy Xuan Su’s arm, encouraging her.

Xuan Su was momentarily stunned, and a hint of embarrassment flashed across her delicate face.

Actually, she had already intended to take Ning Yao over to say hello.

After all, they were acquaintances, and with Ning Yao’s relationship in play, this was indeed a good opportunity to catch up.

But after hearing Ning Yao’s words, Xuan Su hesitated.

However, before she could approach, Su Jingzhen and Little Ling had already left, moving quickly as if something urgent required their attention.

“Huh? Where are Teacher and the others going?

Why do they look like they’re looking for something? Did they lose something?”

…

“Little Ling, I have a feeling that something has happened to Yaoyao.

Do you have any way to contact Grandpa?”

After leaving the main square, Su Jingzhen looked at Little Ling with a solemn expression.

His mind was suddenly in turmoil.

At this moment, he was filled with regret. Things had been going too smoothly for him lately, and he had lost much of his vigilance.

Ever since arriving in Dan City, the mysterious demeanor of Dantai Mingjing, the goodwill of Li Lingxi, and their connection with Shui Linglong from the Treasure Gathering Pavilion had made him feel as though he could rest easy here.

But upon reflection, he realized that ever since the Northern Abyss Divine Sect’s secondary trials, he had been in the spotlight.

As the saying goes, the tree that stands out in the forest is the first to be cut down. He was afraid that too many people would see him as a thorn in their side.

If anything had happened to Qiu Yaoyao because of this, Su Jingzhen wouldn’t know how to forgive himself.

“Brother Su, don’t worry yet.

Perhaps Sister Yaoyao just found it boring and is wandering around Dan City on her own.”

After a brief attempt to comfort him, Little Ling continued, “I’ll try to contact Grandpa now.”

She then pulled out a gray jade bracelet that emitted a faint spiritual fluctuation. Clearly, it was a high-quality artifact capable of long-distance communication.

However, despite several attempts, Little Ling received no response.

Her expression turned frustrated, and she silently cursed her unreliable grandfather for failing her at such a critical moment.

“If we can’t find Yaoyao, then there’s no point in participating in the next competition,” Su Jingzhen said firmly.

For him, even becoming the champion of the Alchemy Congress paled in comparison to Qiu Yaoyao’s well-being.

Murmuring to himself, he pulled out the token given to him by Li Lingxi without hesitation and led Little Ling toward the floating buildings above.

Previously, Zhou Daoqi had escorted them there without any hindrance.

This time, however, as Su Jingzhen and Little Ling approached the gate of the first void island, they were blocked by a dazzling barrier.

A disciple guarding the gate of the Divine Dan Sect cast a cold glance at them.

“If you’re not a disciple of the Divine Dan Sect, do you have an invitation?”

The floating buildings were the residences and training grounds of the Divine Dan Sect’s inner disciples.

The outer disciples could only stay in Dan City below.

The guards were strict and had an air of arrogance.

Su Jingzhen, who was worried about Qiu Yaoyao, had no time for pleasantries.

He presented Li Lingxi’s token directly.

“I want to see the Second Elder!”

When the two guards saw the token in Su Jingzhen’s hand, their expressions changed drastically.

Without hesitation, they fell to their knees.

While there wasn’t a formal rule of “Seeing the token is like seeing its owner” in the Divine Dan Sect, they recognized its significance. The token carried the aura of the Sect Master.

Such an item could not be forged or stolen – it was only bestowed directly by the Sect Master.

Its authority was immense, compelling them to kneel without question!

“Please wait a moment, my lord. We will report immediately.

Hmm? The Second Elder?”

The guard’s respectful reply was soon tinged with confusion.
