Chapter 58
"You!" Luo Bingyao pointed at Ye Qingchuan fiercely, "You are just guests brought by Shen Lang, how dare you speak so rudely and disrespectfully to me? I am Shen Lang's person."
Seeing Luo Bingyao's exasperated expression, Ye Zhenzhen couldn't help but burst out laughing.
"What are you laughing at, Little Bean?"
"I laughed at my Third Senior Brother for his bad eyesight. You are clearly our elder, and we should respectfully call you Auntie. It's already a huge advantage for you to call my senior sister 'junior sister'." Ye Zhenzhen blinked her big, bright eyes, tilted her innocent and cute face up, and said nonsense to her in a serious manner.
"What auntie? I'm about the same age as your senior sister, okay?" Luo Bingyao was clearly not comforted by Ye Zhenzhen's words, but was so angry that she was trembling all over, and her eyes were about to spit fire.
"Really?" The Little Bean looked incredulous.
She enthusiastically pulled Ye Qingyao, Luo Bingyao, and Jiang Wan together, then took out Recording Stone and posed for a picture of the three of them.
"Auntie, look." After taking the photo, she deliberately showed the Recording Stone to Luo Bingyao, pointing to the image on it and saying in a childish voice, "This is my senior sister, this is Senior Sister Jiang Wan, and this is you. You look like you're already their auntie."
After finishing speaking, the Little Bean rubbed his forehead in exasperation. "Wait a minute, if they call you 'Auntie,' what should I call you? You're so much older than me!"
"Grandma?"
"What are you talking about? I've only just turned 20." Luo Bingyao snatched the Little Bean's Recording Stone and found that Ye Qingyao and Jiang Wan on it were one bright and beautiful and the other stunningly beautiful. Standing between them, she not only looked old but also ugly. She was so angry that she threw the Recording Stone to the ground.
"Grandma, are you angry?" The Little Bean looked up at her, his face full of grievance and innocence. "Did Zhenzhen say something wrong?"
"But even if you're angry, you shouldn't lie to people. Mother said that lying is wrong. You look so old, but you lied to me and said you were only 20."
"I may be just a child, but I'm not blind."
After she finished speaking, Luo Bingyao's face turned red, then purple, then black, a truly fascinating sight. Shen Xingyan disgustedly pulled her hand away.
He's already been mistaken for an uncle; what if he stands next to Luo Bingyao and gets mistaken for a grandfather?
Ye Zhenzhen: It feels so good to say these infuriating things while wearing a child's face!
Hahahaha or or
Chapter 58
================
Shen Xingyan led everyone to climb to the top of Mount Zhaoyao. The closer they got to the summit, the denser the Spiritual Qi became. In the end, it was as if the Spiritual Qi was rushing in, making their meridians clear and their minds refreshed.
At the summit is an Ascension Platform to heaven, hundreds of meters high, made of ancient jade, soaring into the clouds like Heavenly Stairway to the Heavenly Realm.
Ascension Platform lies a complex path paved with Top-Grade Earth Crystal Stone, resembling a maze. With its crisscrossing paths, ordinary people who venture into it are easily trapped by the chaotic routes and invisible Restrictive Formation, unable to find their way out.
"Junior Brother Lin, please inform my father that I have brought disciples from the Cloudsky Sect and the Immortal-Ending Hall to discuss the matter of defeating the Devil Race," Shen Xingyan to the disciple at the door.
"Young Sect Leader, the Sect Leader is currently in seclusion and has instructed you not to be disturbed for the next three days." The gatekeeper looked troubled. "How about you bring them over in three days?"
"Okay." Shen Xingyan agreed immediately. She couldn't be happier to let Ye Qingyao and the others stay a few more days.
Ye Zhenzhen and the others couldn't help but look up. The Ascension Platform was shrouded in mist, making it impossible to see even a single person. Was Immortal Venerable Shen really cultivating up there? Why was the Ascension Platform built so high? And why was there a maze in front of it? The strangeness and mysteries surrounding the Ascension Platform Kongtong School were only increasing.
Since they couldn't see Immortal Venerable Shen for the time being, Shen Xingyan decided to settle them in the guest rooms first.
Along the way, they passed a huge stone monument, behind which stood a heavy black iron gate. The gate frame was carved with a ferocious and terrifying nine-headed Nine-Headed Serpent statue, as well as four powerful characters. "Trespassers shall die."
"Junior Brother Shen, where is this place?" Ye Qinghui couldn't help but ask.
"This is the forbidden area of my Kongtong School. It is where many evil Demon Beast are imprisoned. No one is allowed to trespass. Otherwise, they will not only be eaten by the Demon Beast, but also bring disaster upon themselves."
Ye Zhenzhen, being mischievous, deliberately slipped to the black iron gate, only to be dragged away by Shen Xingyan. "Little Bean, curiosity killed the cat." His warning was quite clear, and Ye Zhenzhen had no choice but to leave.
Before long, they arrived at a spiritual Spirit Spring rich in Spiritual Qi. Around the Spirit Spring grew all sorts of Rare Flowers and Exotic Herbs and rare herbs, such as the Nightshade Epiphyllum, which Ye Qingyao had never seen before. Its flowers were pure white and funnel-shaped, making it a breathtaking sight.
She has always loved these pure and beautiful flowers the most.
As Shen Xingyan led everyone forward, she secretly observed Ye Qingyao's expression. Every time she saw Ye Qingyao show surprise or joy, her smugness increased.
"Gather ye rosebuds while ye may." Seeing that Ye Qingyao was interested in the Nightshade Epiphyllum, he wanted to pluck one and give it to the beauty.
Before Luo Bingyao could even react with jealousy and stop her, Ye Qingyao spoke up, "Senior Brother Shen, don't pick them. These Nightshade Epiphyllum are different from other flowers; their blooming period is already short. If you pick them, they will wither instantly, which is a real pity. Wouldn't it be better to let them bloom on the branches for a few more days?"
"Junior Sister Qingyao, you know so much." Shen Xingyan looked at Ye Qingyao with even more admiration. The woman he had taken a liking to was indeed extraordinary.
The Kongtong School has guest rooms in all four directions, and Shen Xingyan led them to the superior room in the south, which was reserved for distinguished guests.
It must be said that the Kongtong School, as the sect where the Immortal Venerable resides, manages many industries in the Cultivation World. It is even more wealthy and powerful than the Spirit Sword Manor. Even its guest rooms are much more magnificent than the Lingxiao Hall where the Cloudsky Sect Master resides. The entire place is paved with crystal stones, with carved railings and painted beams, and the hall is filled with gold and jade.
