Chapter 717: Chapter 198: Returned? What Has Returned? (Please Subscribe)_3

Granny Qianhua only then learned that Cheng Guang had already left.

He had just left when he suddenly disappeared.

Granny Qianhua immediately thought of the extermination of the Huashan Sword Sect she had just mentioned.

As soon as she finished speaking, Cheng Guang left, and then he disappeared entirely from the Taihao Sword Sect.

Granny Qianhua thought for a moment and understood that Cheng Guang, the Town-Nation Duke’s Heir, had probably gone to check on the Huashan Sword Sect.

He did so without informing Granny Qianhua or Ning Qianxue, likely to keep them from worrying.

…

Granny Qianhua, thinking of this, couldn’t help but chuckle and shake her head.

“The Princely Heir has safely returned, that’s good. The area around the Huashan Sword Sect is very peculiar; even I cannot get too close.”

“It seems the Princely Heir only went near the Huashan Sword Sect to take a look, then he came back.”

Granny Qianhua murmured to herself, slowly letting out a sigh of relief.

She had been nearly scared to death when she saw Cheng Guang disappear all of a sudden.

At this time, Ning Liang’s life and death are unknown; the impact on Ning Qianxue, on Granny Qianhua herself, and on the entire Taihao Sword Sect is enormous.

If something were to happen to Cheng Guang, the Town-Nation Duke’s Heir, at this time,

Granny Qianhua would never forgive herself.

Thinking of this, Granny Qianhua felt a wave of fear.

At the same time,

Granny Qianhua also noticed something—that she had not sensed Cheng Guang, the Town-Nation Duke’s Heir, leaving the Taihao Sword Sect at all earlier.

Even with Different Treasures that could shield his presence, it was rare to find one that could deceive her clairvoyant eyes as an Earth Immortal.

Could it be that Cheng Guang, the Town-Nation Duke’s Heir, actually possessed such a Different Treasure?

If that were true, how come he had revealed his presence again when he came back?

Did he anticipate that she would find out he was no longer in the Taihao Sword Sect and deliberately revealed his presence so she could sense it?

Just thinking about this possibility, the elderly eyes of Granny Qianhua couldn’t help but show a trace of emotion.

If he could achieve this,

Cheng Guang, the Town-Nation Duke’s Heir, must truly be meticulously cunning.

Granny Qianhua pondered this while approaching the courtyard where Cheng Guang was staying.

Entering the courtyard,

Granny Qianhua saw the sunlight streaming through the leaves, scattering small patches of light onto the yellow-leaf-covered hedge courtyard.

In the courtyard,

Cheng Guang was sitting in a pavilion sipping tea, with Qing Luan, his attendant, by his side.

Ning Qianxue, who had just rushed back, entered the courtyard and instantly relaxed when she saw Cheng Guang drinking tea.

“Princely Heir, did you just leave earlier?”

“Where did you go?”

“You didn’t really go to the Huashan Sword Sect, did you?”

“Granny just said that the Huashan Sword Sect isn’t a place ordinary people can go to, Princely Heir, you mustn’t…”

Before Cheng Guang could respond, Ning Qianxue anxiously blurted out a whole heap of words.

At the end, Ning Qianxue seemed to feel she was overreacting and took a deep breath, staring intently at Cheng Guang.

“Princely Heir, you can’t get into any more trouble.”

Feeling the pressure from Ning Qianxue’s solemn expression, Cheng Guang chuckled and lightly tapped her nose.

“What are you talking about?”

“I haven’t gone anywhere; I’ve been in this courtyard the whole time.”

After Cheng Guang finished speaking,

Ning Qianxue’s nose wrinkled, “I don’t believe it, Granny just said you had left for a while, did you go to the Huashan Sword Sect?”

Cheng Guang shook his head, smiling, “Don’t wrong me, I’m not one to court death.”

“Granny mentioned that at the Huashan Sword Sect, there are people as strong as Earth Immortals. Even though I’m now a Sky-Man, I’m no match for them.”

“I’m not that rash.”

Hearing Cheng Guang’s words, Ning Qianxue half-believingly nodded, feeling that what Cheng Guang said seemed right.

No matter what,

The fact that Cheng Guang is unharmed is the best outcome.
