One Person, One Courtyard; This Kid Has Great Fortune (3/10)

"A Chu, did you build this all these days?"

Nuwa flew curiously into the air and looked at the six courtyards surrounding the back garden.

Wu Chu smiled and said, "So? Do you like it?"

"What? You even prepared one for me?" Nuwa asked with a smile.

"Of course! You're my sister, how could I not save a seat for you and my older brother!"

"I want the one on the right. A little way out of this courtyard, you can see the valley below, and from the second-floor railing, you can gaze at the Flower Mountain in the distance..."

Nuwa didn't stand on ceremony with Wu Chu, and casually pointed to the one on the right.

Houtu and Qingqiu Li remained silent and did not look at Wu Chu. Although they both knew that Wu Chu would not refuse to reserve a seat for them, they still wanted to maintain their composure.

"Why did you suddenly think of adding these courtyards?" Qingqiu Li asked.

Wu Chu crossed her arms and asked with a smile, "How is it? Doesn't it look beautiful?"

Qingqiu Li looked around at the scenery, nodded, and then said, "It looks beautiful, but with so many seats, who are you planning to give them to?"

"Of course it's for you to stay in! Is there even a question?" Wu Chu said matter-of-factly, "Sister Houtu and you each have a seat, Little Moon Spirit and Xiao Yu each have a seat, Brother Fuxi and Nuwa each have a seat, and there's only one seat left!"

"So, who are you planning to give this last one to?" Miss Houtu glanced at him and asked.

"I can live here by myself! I can also let Little Cai Niang and Little White live here!"

"Why do you all have a seat each, but I have to share one with two people?" Nuwa protested. "No way! I want a seat for each person too!"

"Sister, when you're at Phoenix-Perching Mountain, do you and my brother each have your own cave dwelling?"

"No, that's not it!"

"That settles it then! You're used to living with your older brother. If he weren't there to take care of you, would you be able to get used to it?"

"..."

Seeing that Nuwa remained silent, both Houtu and Qingqiu Li couldn't help but cover their mouths and chuckle.

Anyone with half a brain could see the protective instincts Fuxi had for Nuwa.

"What do you mean? Do you mean I can't live without him?" Nuwa was clearly provoked by her two older sisters' chuckles and immediately exploded.

"No, I think my brother probably wouldn't survive without you!"

"..."

Nuwa felt that something was off about what Wu Chu was saying.

Before she could figure it out, the Mountain Protection Array of Purple Jade Mountain rippled, and a voice rang out above the Purple Jade Mountain, "This humble Daoist is Shaoyang. I wonder if the Lord of Purple Jade is still here? It has been tens of thousands of years since we last met. Do you still remember me?"

Who is this?

Nuwa looked at Wu Chu and asked.

"A fellow Daoist I met in the Eastern Sea, please wait here while I go and bring him in."

As Wu Chu spoke, he used the power of the formation to instantly appear in front of the Eastern King Duke. The Eastern King Duke still looked like the same young man he had been before, resembling a scholar in a blue robe.

"Fellow Daoist Shaoyang, how have you been?"

Wu Chu, standing on Merit Auspicious Cloud, bowed to the other party and then laughed heartily.

When Eastern King Duke saw Wu Chu emerge riding on auspicious clouds, he was momentarily stunned. However, upon hearing such a hearty laugh, he returned the greeting and then laughed heartily as well, saying, "As expected, fellow Daoist's demeanor is even more impressive than before! It seems my luck is quite good. I was worried that you were in seclusion and that my trip would be in vain!"

Upon seeing Wu Chu, Eastern King Duke knew that Wu Chu's cultivation had advanced to a new level, and that he had even lavishly used his Merit Power to condense an auspicious cloud.

Everyone else Merit Auspicious Cloud above their heads, but this guy is stepping on them...

Indeed, a being that possesses such eloquence and intellect, and is favored by two powerful beings of the opposite sex at the Daluo Realm, is truly extraordinary!

Wu Chu invited the other party into Purple Jade Mountain, and said with a smile, "If Fellow Daoist Shaoyang has come here to satisfy his appetite, then perhaps he has truly wasted his trip. Little Moon Spirit and Little Cai Niang are both currently in seclusion, and in this vast Purple Jade Mountain, I cannot find a third chef whose culinary skills are comparable to theirs. I am truly ashamed!"

Eastern King Duke was taken aback for a moment, then laughed heartily, "No problem, no problem at all. Being able to have a long talk with Fellow Daoist is more satisfying than a thousand cups of wine, and far surpasses any delicious food!"

This flattery made Wu Chu feel extremely comfortable.

So this is where the importance of being a good communicator comes in.

Of course, the other party didn't need to flatter him at all. It can only be said that this person was very tactful and adept at getting along with people; talking to him was like a breath of fresh air.

In terms of affability, Hong Yun's affability is innate. If Hong Yun didn't have that straightforward and quick tongue, she would definitely be more adept at dealing with people than the person in front of her.

The person in front of me, though lacking that innate affability, spoke these words with unparalleled naturalness, making me feel even more comfortable than Hong Yun possessed such natural affability.

Hong Yun's quick tongue can sometimes be so sharp it's almost suffocating, though he doesn't do it on purpose.

Wu Chu also considered himself to have "a wide circle of friends" and to have made many good connections everywhere, but when it came to speaking skills, especially when it came to complimenting others, he still couldn't compare to this person. He needed to rely on his acting skills to support himself, otherwise he would feel very embarrassed.

"Fellow Daoist, you flatter me. Come, let me introduce you to a new fellow Daoist."

Upon entering the Mountain Protection Array Purple Jade Mountain, Wu Chu led the Eastern King Duke to the Summit of the Sacred Tree. Upon seeing the Sacred Tree, Purple Jade Spirit Crabapple, the Eastern King Duke sighed silently.

However, he wasn't envious, since he himself also possessed a Fuso Sacred Tree, and its quality was far superior to this Purple Jade Divine Tree.

He just felt that the other party was incredibly lucky, as yet another powerful expert of the Daluo Realm the opposite sex had appeared beside Wu Chu. It seemed that this young man was blessed with Fortune!

Then look at the Main Hall of Merit Spiritual Treasure Summit of the Sacred Tree, and recall the Merit Auspicious Cloud that this guy had condensed with the Merit Power... No wonder he has such Fortune!

Just Houtu, Houtu and Qingqiu Li came up to greet them along with Nuwa.

"Sister, this is Fellow Daoist Shaoyang, from Fusang in the Eastern Sea..."

After Eastern King Duke and Houtu exchanged greetings, Wu Chu briefly introduced Eastern King Duke's background to Nuwa, and then introduced Nuwa to Eastern King Duke, saying, "Sister Nuwa is my sworn sister. We also have an elder brother, whose Daoist name is Fuxi. Brother Fuxi is currently refining Spirit Treasure for me and cannot come out to meet me. I hope you will understand!"

"No problem, no problem! It was my abrupt arrival that was so abrupt, there's no reason for me to be offended," said the Eastern King Duke as he greeted Nuwa, "This humble Daoist is Shaoyang, greetings to Fellow Daoist Nuwa!"

"Fellow Daoist Shaoyang, please don't stand on ceremony. Please come in and have a seat!" Nuwa said with a smile.

Just now, she had inquired about Shaoyang Daoist from Miss Houtu and Qingqiu Li, and learned about his background and temperament.
