Oh no, I accidentally cultivated three spiritual roots and became an empress!

Everyone laughed and said, "We know, we know, you don't need to tell us that."

Ge Hongtian urged, "We need to hurry. This rain can start anytime soon, and if it stops, we'll have made a wasted trip."

Upon hearing this, everyone became anxious.

All the cultivators above the Foundation Establishment stage stepped onto their flying swords, carrying two Qi Refining stage cultivators who had not yet reached the Foundation Establishment stage as they flew forward.

They flew at an extremely high speed, with mountain peaks flashing past beneath their feet.

But the rain started even faster, and after more than an hour, the heavy rain began to pour down.

Everyone was anxious, so they flew even faster.

From a distance, you could hear the thunderous sound of water.

Ming Jingchen said urgently, "Hurry up, or the flood will cause trouble. It's a long stretch of flat land below Manglongtan, with many twists and turns. Nobody knows which flat land Qingyuhua might be on. We still need to search carefully."

Upon hearing this, everyone flew even faster.

After crossing a hill, the deafening sound of rushing water reached everyone's ears.

Ming Jingchen cried out in alarm, "Oh no, oh no, the water's rising! Quick, find them!"

After saying that, he was the first to dart down the cliff and search the riverbank below.

Several cultivators flew down from the cliff on the other side, glanced at Zhong Lingxin and her group, and began searching not far from them.

Zhong Lingxin recognized one of them as Ye Mingyang from the Lingyun Sect.

Ye Mingyang didn't recognize Zhong Lingxin, but he did recognize Ge Hongtian.

Both were disciples of the sect leaders of their respective sects, and were renowned geniuses and elites in the Immortal Spirit Continent.

The atmosphere eased a bit after the two greeted each other.

Zhong Lingxin also recognized someone, a woman dressed in a light green dress embroidered with blue lotus flowers, a woman named Hua Qinglian who looked ethereal and otherworldly.

This time, however, Hua Qinglian did not follow Ye Mingyang, but instead followed a male cultivator with a smiling face and flowing white robes.

After greeting Ge Hongtian, Ye Mingyang introduced the people beside him: "Senior Brother Ge, this is my senior brother Feng Haixi, and my junior sister Hua Qinglian..."

Ge Hongtian also introduced the people around him: "This is Ming Jingchen from the Ming family of Minghe City, Zhan Heng from the Zhan family of Xiyuan City, and Zhong Lingxin from the Qingyun Sect..."

The eyes of the Lingyun Sect members all turned to Zhong Lingxin.

After leaving the Tianyuan Secret Realm, Hua Qinglian and Liu Chang reported Qu Xin to the Lingyun Sect's Enforcement Hall.

However, the Feng family knew that Qu Xin was a member of their bloodline. Although they were angry that Qu Xin acted without restraint, they still helped to suppress the matter.

Hua Qinglian and the Liu family couldn't do anything to Qu Xin, but they all took their anger out on the Qingyun Sect.

The Feng family, in particular, harbored a deep resentment towards the Qingyun Sect.

Feng Haixi was the direct descendant of the Feng family in this generation, and he harbored resentment towards the Qingyun Sect. He had long wanted to cause trouble for the Qingyun Sect, so he only nodded slightly at Ge Hongtian's introduction.

Hua Qinglian stood beside Feng Haixi, maintaining her ethereal, fairy-like demeanor, and nodded slightly to Ge Hongtian.

The other Lingyun Sect disciples, seeing that their Senior Brother Feng ignored them, naturally ignored him as well.

Only Ye Mingyang greeted Zhong Lingxin and the others with a smile.

Zhong Lingxin wasn't one to seek out abuse. Seeing the other party's indifferent reaction, she simply smiled and nodded, then lowered her head to continue searching for the Green Rain Flower.

Ge Hongtian knew what had happened in the Tianyuan Secret Realm.

He cheerfully cupped his hands in greeting to Ye Mingyang and the others, said goodbye, and then ran off with Zhong Lingxin and the others.

They left the Lingyun Sect members standing behind them.

Feng Haixi is angry. He used to be the center of attention wherever he went!

One Ge Hongtian is one thing, and the other small families are one thing, but what's wrong with Zhong Lingxin? The Qingyun Sect is an affiliated sect of their Lingyun Sect, yet she dares not even show him a proper greeting!

Hua Qinglian smiled and said, "Senior Brother Feng, what's that! Zhong Lingxin is quite bold. Right at the entrance of the Tianyuan Secret Realm, she was about to fight Qu Xin, right, Senior Brother Ye? We all saw it."

Feng Haixi's face darkened further. It was one thing for the Feng family not to acknowledge Qu Xin, but for others to be disrespectful to Qu Xin was a slap in the face to the Feng family.

He sneered, "Zhong Lingxin, how dare you not greet someone from our Lingyun Sect!"

Zhong Lingxin had already found the Qingyuhua flowers and was cheering, urging Ge Hongtian and the others to come and pick them. She ignored Feng Haixi's questioning and just kept her head down picking the flowers.

Upon seeing this, Feng Haixi's anger intensified, and he summoned the Flying Dragon Spear with a wave of his hand.

Ye Mingyang hurriedly stepped forward to stop him: "Senior Brother Feng, quickly pick the Green Rain Flower. There's only an incense stick's time left. Zhong Lingxin is so focused on finding the Green Rain Flower that she probably didn't hear Senior Brother Feng's question."

Seeing this, Hua Qinglian had no time to continue provoking Zhong Lingxin and quickly swooped down with her flying sword.

She had a good plan, and the flying sword headed straight for Zhong Lingxin.

If Zhong Lingxin dodges, it means she is afraid of them, and she will have to give up the fattest and strongest patch of green rain flowers in front of her.

She knew Zhong Lingxin wouldn't dare not hide.

She is from the Lingyun Sect.

Zhong Lingxin did indeed dodge, and not only that, she also used the momentum to send Hua Qinglian crashing straight into the rushing stream with a delicate burst of spiritual energy.

Hua Qinglian screamed in terror, "Ah~~ Senior Brother Feng, save me..."

Zhong Lingxin smiled coldly, ignoring the group of Lingyun Sect members who were scrambling to save people, and continued picking Qingyu flowers.

Ge Hongtian gave Zhong Lingxin a thumbs up and then quickly lowered his head to continue picking Qingyu flowers.

Ming Jingchen and Zhan Heng glanced at Zhong Lingxin with concern.

Seeing her fearless demeanor, he also hurriedly lowered his head to pick the green rain flowers.

The small patch of green rain flowers was quickly picked clean by everyone.

On the other side, Hua Qinglian was pulled out by Feng Haixi and nestled obediently into his arms, sobbing softly, "Senior Brother Feng, when I was little in the mortal world, someone pushed me into the water. I'm terrified of water. This stream is swollen and flowing so fast. Junior Sister Zhong, you're trying to kill me!"

Feng Haixi hurriedly comforted Hua Qinglian: "Junior Sister Qinglian, it's alright, your senior brother is here. Your senior brother will avenge you."

Hua Qinglian responded softly, "Yes, I believe Senior Brother Feng will definitely avenge me."

Zhong Lingxin rolled her eyes, too lazy to watch this disgusting performance, and turned her head to continue searching for the Green Rain Flower.

It's soaking wet, it's disgusting. They must have deliberately used their spiritual power to dry the clothes.

That's true, dry clothes can't show off your figure as well as wet clothes clinging to your body.

With the rain so heavy and the water level rising so rapidly, the mudflats below Manglongtan will likely be submerged soon.

Feng Haixi held the curvaceous Hua Qinglian and comforted her for a while before hurriedly releasing her. He then summoned the Flying Dragon Spear again, which roared like a flying dragon as it stabbed towards Zhong Lingxin.

Zhong Lingxin was feeling irritable as she looked down to find the Qingyu flowers. The floodwaters were about to overflow onto the mudflats, which would delay her from picking the flowers!

She sidestepped the Flying Dragon Spear, raised her hand, and threw a punch at it.

Feng Haixi was about to recall the Flying Dragon Spear when he discovered that it was out of control, shooting straight into the river far away, accelerating the river's flow, and plunging into the bottom of the water.
