Deep within an unnamed stone mountain in the territory of the Saint Yu Immortal Dynasty, Ling Changqing's figure quietly emerged.
He glanced around, and only when he was sure no one else had noticed him did he quietly sigh in relief.
That Goddess Empress of the Da Xia Divine Dynasty was simply too fearsome. If he had stayed by her side, there was no telling what might have happened next, so it was best to seize the opportunity to slip away.
As for how furious and indignant Xia Qingying and her guards were after his departure, that was none of Ling Changqing's concern.
"...That woman is certainly a handful. You can't control her right now, Master. You'll have to at least reach the Nascent Soul True Monarch Realm before trying."
Gong Ling's sweet and bewitching voice chimed in.
"Yeah, I know."
Ling Changqing said, admitting that he truly disliked the feeling of a situation not being under his control.
