The mansion on the outskirts of the Fantian Kingdom's capital was quite vast, with many courtyards and separate buildings.
A stunning woman with a long and exquisite smoking pipe entered one such building, raising her eyebrow as she did.
"Oh my, if it isn't my student"
A smile played on her lips as Lian Zhiqiu turned to look at her.
"Teacher..."
The latter was slightly surprised but then her expression eased as she smiled back.
Madam Liang came looking for Wu Long, but seeing her student couldn't walk by without at least saying hello. However, as she sensed an aura of a Mortal Transcendence Realm from Lian Zhiqiu, her eyes widened with light shock.
"You..."
"Haha, Teacher is quick to notice. Though I know that I haven't caught up with you, so don't expect your cocky student to brag about just yet"
Lian Zhiqiu's eyes glimmered as her smile became wider.
"...!"
Hehe, sorry for the late update, but a morning writing session did the trick XD
