Ah Chun: Ascending The Heavens - 336 The Capture Of Mei Liling Part One

“Yan’er how do you think your sister is doing?” Mei Liling asked as she sat down next to Yu Yan. She took the pot of tea on the table and poured a cup for herself.

“If it is her I am sure she is doing fine. She was always one to go against all odds. Her determination to grow strong is probably greater than all of ours.” Yu Yan said seriously.

“You are right, But I still worry about her. I guess as a mother this is only natural to worry about your daughter. I worry about you as well. ” Sipping her tea Mei Liling looked out over the clouds of the mountain peak with a look of longing. She really missed the little girl who would hug her with a bright smile calling her mother.

“Huh, why is it dark all of a sudden…?” Yu Yan asked in surprise. The once blue sky had suddenly turned grey causing her alarm.

“Yan’er take Rou’er and go down the mountain now!” Mie Liling’s face turned pale seeing the grey sky. She knew what was going on and she had to get Yu Yan and Zhi Rou out of there as fast as possible.

“Mo-Mother!?” Yu Yan was confused and wanted to ask what was going on but seeing the expression on Mei Liling’s face she knew it was no time to be asking such questions. “I will do as you say…” She quickly nodded her head at Mei Liling before running to Zhi Rou’s immortal cave.

After Yu Yan left ten figures appeared from the sky. They hovered over the Heavenly Sword Sect looking down at it. One old man stepped forward and yelled out: “Mei Liling come out now! You will be coming back with us!”

“Who dares to cause trouble in my heavenly Sword Sect!” Shi Quan suddenly appeared in the sky. His voice was domineering and his gaze was cold all the way until he felt the pressure from the ten people in the air. He then suddenly lowered his head not daring to look up.

“Hmm… Smart man… I am guessing you are the sect master here. Tell me where Mei Liling is and I will not destroy this ant infested place.” The old man in the lead demanded. He went through great lengths to find this woman he would not leave empty handed!

“Huh? Ah… Yes. She should be on the peak right over there.” No hesitation whatsoever. Shi Quan gave up Mei Liling in the face of a stronger power.

“Smart man. You choose wisely.” The old man scoffed. He couldn’t believe how quickly Shi Quan gave up his own sect member. Some people were truly weak not only in strength but comradery as well. He could tell Shi Quan only cared about himself. One simple threat and he was already shaking in his boots willing to give up whoever or whatever they wanted. He was sure if he asked for Shi Quan’s first born son the damn fool would hand his son over on a silver platter.

“Mei Liling, resistance is futile! You are known for your abilities in pill refinement and beauty. You will come back with us to the Immortal Realm. ” The old man had eyes filled with lust when they landed on Mie Liling’s body. This gaze made Mei Liling shiver from head to toe. A look of disgust filled her face as she looked at the old man.

“And if I refuse?” Mei Liling asked, getting ready to fight with everything she had.

“If you refuse, we do not mind taking those two little girls who are running down your mountain right now as means of a bit of entertainment. We know you have taken in three disciples that you see as your daughters. Behave and nothing will happen to them.” The old man had done his investigation before coming here today. He knew Mei Liling well. She would rather fight to the death than to go back with him. So he had to make sure he had some leverage when speaking with her. Luckily it seemed that his investigation was paying off.

Mei Liling looked down the mountain at Yu Yan and Zhi Rou who were running as fast as they could and a self mocking smile formed on her face. In her mind, she couldn’t help but criticize herself for what she was about to do. ‘You have changed so much Mei Liling, ever since you met her. Back then you would not care for anything and fight until you were at death’s door. But now… You have too many people you care about and love. ‘

Gritting her teeth and biting her lower lip Mei Liling finally composed herself as she said: “You win I will follow..”

“Good! This is the way you should have been all those hundreds of years ago! Since you are behaving, I will spare these ants.” The old man paused his words and then turned to the men behind him. “Capture her but be gentle! No one is to harm her.”

“Yes Sect Master!”
