C567 Excitement

Zhu Ziqiao's eyes suddenly froze when she was about to look away.

In her line of sight, a pattern had appeared on the ground where the beast had been pacing back and forth. It was because of that pattern that she could no longer look away from it.

That pattern was formed by the claws of the beast that drew a few grooves on the ground. However, in Zhu Ziqiao's eyes, it was so familiar.

That was the shape of a knife. Because the claw mark of the beast was not deep, the pattern was not very obvious. But even so, Zhu Ziqiao could still recognize it at a glance.

Son-mother Knife!

That was the pattern of one of the blades in the Son-mother Knife. Especially at the position of the blade, there was a clear groove. That was the mark of the Son-mother Knife that she had used before!

There was almost no difference, it was just the same!

Zhu Ziqiao suddenly took a deep breath. She had used almost all of her strength. Only then did she restrain herself from exclaiming. However, her bright and beautiful eyes were filled with incomparable excitement. It showed how restless her heart was at this moment!

Why would the Son-mother Knife appear here?!

Zhu Ziqiao immediately understood the moment she saw the pattern.

It was Lin Cheng!

The Son-mother Knife that she used was indeed something that many people had seen before. When she was in the Unification Sect, the Son-mother Knife had once been coveted by others. However, she was very familiar with the Son-mother Knife. She could even control a wild beast to carve the image of the Son-mother Knife on the ground with its claws. There was no other person besides Lin Cheng!

Zhu Ziqiao was sure that it must be Lin Cheng!

Without a doubt, that wild beast was definitely under Lin Cheng's control. As for whether it was raised by Lin Cheng or not, that was still uncertain. However, there was no doubt that the beast must have been controlled by Lin Cheng just now. That was the pattern of the Son-mother Knife!

This was a message to him!

Zhu Ziqiao's hands desperately grabbed onto her clothes and took a few deep breaths before she tried to calm herself down. However, the churning thoughts in her heart could not be calmed down no matter what.

"Hu!"

Zhu Ziqiao raised her hand and gently waved it. Just as she was about to grab the pattern on the ground and carefully look at it in front of her eyes, she suddenly stopped.

Immediately after, she seemed to have thought of something and quickly shot out a few Spirit Powers with one hand. In an instant. She wiped away the pattern on the ground, and the position where it was immediately turned into a mess. There were no signs of any pattern here at all.

After doing all of this, Zhu Ziqiao did not hesitate or stop. She turned around and closed the door and entered the room.

It was only at this time that she finally could not help but let out a long breath. But she did not let down her guard. She walked to the bedside and sat cross-legged. Her hands were still tightly clenched and at the same time, she closed her eyes.

After a long time, Zhu Ziqiao opened her eyes again and sat there motionlessly as if she had entered a meditative state.

Lin Cheng had come!

At this moment, Zhu Ziqiao's heart was filled with this thought. At the same time, her eyes were sparkling.

If she hadn't seen the Son-mother Knife with her own eyes, Zhu Ziqiao would never have thought that she would be able to see Lin Cheng so quickly.

Zhu Ziqiao knew that there was a problem with the Dongzhou's Devil-suppressing Cliff. The news had already spread throughout the Dongzhou. If Lin Cheng was still in the Dongzhou, or if he was still alive, he would definitely hear the news. At the same time, he might also know that the major sects in Dongzhou would be doing business in Heavenly Star Sect.

If Lin Cheng knew about it, he would definitely hear that there was a powerful expert coming from Southern Domain. With her understanding of Lin Cheng, he would definitely come to Heavenly Star Sect. Even if he couldn't enter the Heavenly Star Sect, he would still linger in the vicinity.

Even if Lin Cheng didn't know who the powerful expert from Southern Domain was, he would definitely come.

Regarding this, Zhu Ziqiao wasn't happy at all. Instead, she was incomparably worried. She knew that Lin Cheng had a strong personality. Once she came here and heard that the expert from Southern Domain was Ming Danjing, he would definitely do everything in his power to find out if he was here as well.

She was sure that Lin Cheng would do that!

However, Ming Danjing was really too powerful. She was even more powerful than when he forcefully took her away a few years ago!

Although she did not know exactly what realm Ming Danjing was at, according to Zhu Ziqiao's knowledge, currently, Ming Danjing was already preparing to receive the third heavenly punishment. This meant that... Ming Danjing was at least at the seventh level of the Divine Ability Stage or above!

Perhaps, she might even be at the eighth level of the Divine Ability Stage!

Such a Cultivation Level was an absolute expert even in the Expert of Divine Ability Stage. Once the divine retribution struck again, Ming Danjing would be able to launch an attack on a half-step mighty figure.

But what about Lin Cheng?

When the two of them parted ways, Lin Cheng had just broken through to the Incarnation Stage not long ago. No matter how much he had improved in the past few years, even if he had broken through to the Divine Ability Stage... However, compared to Ming Danjing, there was still a huge gap.

If Lin Cheng acted rashly, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Therefore, no matter how much he missed Lin Cheng, Zhu Ziqiao had never revealed any of her feelings after coming to Dongzhou. She was afraid that Ming Danjing would target Lin Cheng. At that time, Lin Cheng's fate would be determined.

When they were in the Formless Immortal Sect, Zhu Ziqiao was very cold to Ming Danjing. That was because she was expressing her attitude. At the same time, ， she really hated Ming Danjing from the bottom of her heart. But... She never dared to show any signs of missing Lin Cheng. That would only harm Lin Cheng!

Ming Danjing might tolerate her coldness, but she would not tolerate her thinking of Lin Cheng. Zhu Ziqiao knew this very well.

That was why Zhu Ziqiao worked so hard to cultivate. She wanted to be strong enough to think of Lin Cheng as she wished, and to find Lin Cheng without any hindrance!

However, Zhu Ziqiao did not expect that, just as she was worried that Lin Cheng would get himself killed and miss him, Lin Cheng would come quietly!

The Son-mother Knife pattern on the ground was like a heavy hammer that smashed into her heart.

At that moment, the worry in Zhu Ziqiao's heart disappeared without a trace.

She no longer had any worries about personal gains or losses. It was only because Lin Cheng had come. Even if Ming Danjing found out about it, the most serious consequence would be death together with him. She had no fear at all!

At this moment, Zhu Ziqiao did not know if Ming Danjing had sensed the movement on this side. She could only try to conceal it as much as possible. That was why she would completely erase the pattern on the ground and at the same time, try her best to control her emotions.

As for the other things, Zhu Ziqiao could not care about them anymore. She did not want to care about them either!

Now, she only wanted to see Lin Cheng!

When a red sun rose from the sky, Lin Cheng, who was sitting on the crown of the tree, suddenly opened his eyes.

For the whole night, Lin Cheng sat quietly on the tree. In fact, when he controlled the wild beast last night and left traces outside Zhu Ziqiao's courtyard, Lin Cheng did not make any movements at all.

Even when he saw Zhu Ziqiao open the door with his own eyes, he suppressed the excitement in his heart and did not move at all. He did not have any communication with Zhu Ziqiao on the spiritual sense.

Lin Cheng was very clear that once the two of them had the communication of the spiritual sense, there would naturally be fluctuations of the spiritual sense. It was very likely that Ming Danjing would notice it.

Therefore, even if the Heavenly Star Sect knew that someone had snuck in at any time, Lin Cheng was afraid that they would find him in a very short period of time. Lin Cheng didn't act impulsively, but waited patiently.

Lin Cheng didn't know what realm Ming Danjing was at, and at the same time, he didn't know what kind of arrangements the Heavenly Star Sect and Ming Danjing had made. However, when Zhu Ziqiao saw the traces left behind by him, she would definitely create an opportunity for him, what he was waiting for. This was the opportunity!

However, when and how far Zhu Ziqiao could wait for this opportunity? Lin Cheng did not have much confidence now. Yesterday, he only saw Zhu Ziqiao from afar. In order to avoid being noticed by Ming Danjing, he quickly looked away.

Therefore, he could only be sure that Zhu Ziqiao's Cultivation Level was much stronger than a few years ago, but he did not know exactly what realm it was.

However, Lin Cheng had nothing else but patience. He knew that as long as the opportunity came, he had a high chance of taking Zhu Ziqiao away.

More importantly, Lin Cheng believed that Zhu Ziqiao would try her best to think of a way. No one knew her intelligence better than Lin Cheng.

When the faint beast roar entered her ears, Zhu Ziqiao suddenly opened her eyes.

She knew that it was the roar of the spirit beast raised by the Heavenly Star Sect. She had heard it on the first day she came to the Heavenly Star Sect. This meant that the disciples in charge of keeping the spirit beasts were feeding the spirit beasts. Or, they could release the spirit beasts that were supposed to be imprisoned at night.

This meant that a new day had begun in the Heavenly Star Sect.2

To Zhu Ziqiao, this was also a new day. Furthermore, she knew that this was a day that she would never forget for the rest of her life!

As usual, Zhu Ziqiao did not change at all. She came to the courtyard. First, she did not circulate a trace of the Spirit Power and only used her hand as a knife. After practicing the 'Ascension Saber' once, she took out a jade bottle from the Storage Bag. She poured a pill into her mouth and swallowed it.

At her level, she actually no longer needed to eat like those ordinary people. She only needed a pill, or even a few pieces of Spirit Stones, to make her not feel hungry for a few days or even a dozen days.

Even if it was just the chakram in her meridians that rotated on its own every day, it would still provide her with spirit energy!

In fact, from the Chakra Stage onwards, the cultivator's need for food had become very, very little. The chakram circulated on its own, constantly absorbing the spiritual energy between heaven and earth. Strengthening the cultivator itself was a form of eating.
