Meng Yuyi

Peach Blossom Spring Mountain Range.

Surrounded by sacred mountains, stretching endlessly.

On the Verdant Peak.

Chen Ning lazily stepped out of the teleportation array.

The disciples guarding the teleportation array immediately bowed and greeted, "Welcome, Sect Leader."

Chen Ning nodded and said, "There's no need to specifically inform the Grand Elder about my return."

"Yes, sir!"

The disciples stepped aside, and Chen Ning strode out.

The afternoon sun was warm, insects chirped, streams flowed, and butterflies fluttered. The scenery of Verdant Peak was delightful, and Chen Ning couldn't help but slow his pace, deciding that a walk would be enough to get back.

Chen Ning had already inscribed several more Divine Speed Talisman, so there was no need to borrow the Flying Feather Pavilion's flying spirit beasts anymore.

This top-grade Divine Speed Talisman is even faster than flying spirit beasts.

The little girl didn't come back with him.

It was because before she left, she suddenly remembered that there were some things she had forgotten to tell her grandfather, so she would stay in the capital for a few days and would return a little later.

Suddenly, Su Ling'er was gone.

There's also a hint of boredom.

Chen Ning chuckled and continued strolling around Verdant Peak.

As Chen Ning walked, he suddenly realized that he seemed to be lost.

Several roads crisscrossed the area, stretching as far as the eye could see, surrounded by dense trees and shrouded in mist.

"Perhaps... someone set up this formation?"

Having read so many novels in his previous life, Chen Ning was quite experienced. In the world of cultivation, these were not unfamiliar things. Without a way to break the formation set up by a powerful figure, one could never escape in their entire life.

Before him stood a very elegant courtyard, and Chen Ning thought it best to go in and ask for directions. After all, he was the head of a sect; surely it wasn't shameful for him to ask for directions?

The entire Spirit Vein of the Peach Blossom Spring Mountain Range belongs to the Dragon-Seeking Sect, and the central location near the Verdant Peak teleportation array must be inhabited by the sect's high-ranking members.

As soon as Chen Ning stepped into the courtyard, he smelled a pleasant aroma.

It seems to have a light floral scent, very gentle and calming.

However, the fog was quite thick in the courtyard at the moment, and visibility was very low.

"This is probably one of the secrets of the formation..."

Chen Ning took careful steps forward, walking very lightly, afraid of accidentally triggering some mechanism.

As I walked, I suddenly heard the sound of water coming from ahead.

Before Chen Ning could react, he felt his leg hit a hard object with a "thud," and his body fell forward uncontrollably.

In that split second, to save face, Chen Ning deftly flipped over, landing on the back of his head.

But.

The expected fall to the ground did not happen; instead, she fell into the water.

Only at this moment did he realize that he had fallen into a huge wooden barrel.

Yes, it's the wooden tub used for bathing in period dramas.

What's even more terrifying is that, due to his previous change in body shape, Chen Ning had positioned himself with his face pointing upwards.

However, the clear blue sky was not fully visible, and the view remained obstructed.

Having watched a lot of adult films from a certain country in his previous life, he immediately recognized what part was blocking his view.

However... such a scale, such an imposing presence, is rarely seen even in movies.

There's a Chinese idiom that perfectly describes the scene before us. "It has a capacity for..."

The next moment, Chen Ning clearly felt that even the water temperature in the wooden tub had dropped by several degrees.

A beautiful, ethereal face appeared before him. The other person was clearly startled and quickly left the wooden tub. However, due to their close proximity, their flustered body inevitably made direct contact with Chen Ning as they left.

A moment later, the stunningly beautiful woman reappeared in front of the wooden tub.

Chen Ning also surfaced, raising the sect leader's token high. This wasn't to show off; it was to save his life.

At this moment, Meng Yuyi was already dressed, wearing a plain-colored fairy dress, and her face was covered with a veil.

She carefully examined the sect leader's token in Chen Ning's hand, and after confirming it was genuine, her cold voice betrayed her anger:

"Lecher!"

"Let me explain. I got lost and thought I had accidentally entered the sect's formation, which is why I disturbed you, young lady. If I said I came to ask for directions, would you... would you believe me?"

Chen Ning looked at the other person, but because their face was obscured and he was sitting in the wooden tub at different heights, he didn't want to tilt his head back—that would be too tiring—so he naturally lowered his gaze...

Even now, dressed, it would be difficult to conceal the sheer size of that location.

"Are you still watching?"

Meng Yuyi's expression was icy.

"Sorry, looking up is too tiring."

Chen Ning is completely innocent. What did I do to deserve this?

He quickly searched his memory and finally knew who the woman in front of him was.

Meng Yuyi, the Holy Maiden of Heavenly Lake Holy Land, has been lurking in the Dragon-Seeking Sect since childhood. She has a cold and aloof personality, but her cultivation is incredibly powerful.

Even the old sect leader couldn't help but praise the talent of this undercover girl when he mentioned her.

What's most terrifying is that she's the second elder of the sect.

"Wait a minute, I definitely saw you at Azure Cloud Platform, and you didn't look like this then."

Chen Ning asked, puzzled.

On the day of the Azure Cloud Rite, I met all nine elders.

Although the Second Elder was wearing a cloak and his face was covered at the time.

But you can't hide your figure.

Chen Ning can say with certainty that the woman he saw that day and the woman in front of him are definitely not the same person.

They're different just in size.

If the Second Elder on the day of the Azure Cloud Rite was of the same scale as now.

How could Chen Ning not look at him differently? He must have been deeply impressed.

"I was unwell that day, so my maid went in my place."

Meng Yuyi in a cool, aloof tone.

Chen Ning nodded in agreement. "That's right."

Meng Yuyi turned around and walked straight into the house. "About today..."

Meng Yuyi hesitated, as if she wanted to say something but then stopped.

"Don't worry, nothing happened today."

Chen Ning said something to her retreating figure.

Before closing the door, Meng Yuyi said softly, "Take the left path after you go out..."

Immediately, the door closed, and Chen Ning jumped out of the wooden tub and walked outside.

Thanks.

Although Meng Yuyi is also an undercover agent, she comes from a prestigious and upright family, and she's a really good person.

After Chen Ning left the courtyard.

Inside the room, Meng Yuyi looked at the fireplace on the table, and the scene from just now seemed to resurface in the depths of her beautiful eyes.

Thinking about all this, her ears turned slightly red with embarrassment.

This was... the first time in her life she had been in close proximity to a man.

Unfortunately... she was born with Extreme Cold Spirit Body, so she will probably never be able to get close to people in her entire life.

This constitution certainly endowed her with extraordinary talent, but it also caused her to suffer from extreme cold and boundless pain day and night.

The wooden tub in the courtyard, originally filled with boiling water, couldn't withstand the power of its own spirit.

Meng Yuyi's beautiful eyes held no light as she extended her slender, jade-like fingers toward the stove...

The flickering flames were extinguished in an instant.

Chen Ning left the courtyard, a system notification rang in his ears.

"Ding! Congratulations, host, you have triggered the time-limited quest [Fetching Water]"
