Chapter 53

After a short while of busy work, she had finished building a majestic lion, an adorable rabbit, a cunning wolf, and a goofy bear.

Ye Qingchuan had nothing but two large snowballs piled together.

Ye Zhenzhen glanced triumphantly at his large snowball. Heavenly Dao goes around comes around; the heavens will punish no one. Her chance to get back at him had arrived! She laughed loudly, adding an exaggerated expression, "Oh, these are just two balls, not even resembling a snowman... It seems some people may have long hands, but if they're not dexterous, they're just useless hands."

Hahahaha.

Just as she was laughing heartily, a snowball suddenly flew over and blocked her mouth. "Some people not only have short legs and short arms, but also foul mouths. Their words are so awful that they need to be sealed away."

Pah!

Ye Zhenzhen spat out the snow in her mouth and deliberately asked, "Do you know what these snowmen I built are?"

"Aren't they just lions, rabbits, wolves, and polar bears?"

"Wrong. That lion is the aloof but sometimes tender First Senior Brother, that rabbit is the docile Second Senior Sister who will bite if provoked, and that polar bear is the silly and simple-minded Little Junior Brother who only knows how to Alchemy."

"Where is the wolf?"

"That wolf is you, my Third Senior Brother. Didn't you see he's wearing a sheep's skin? He looks exactly like you." Ye Zhenzhen pointed at him, laughing so hard she was doubled over, unable to stop.

"Alright, the big bad wolf is coming after you." Ye Qingchuan wasn't annoyed at all. He rushed up to the Little Bean, deliberately curled his fingers into a claw shape, opened his mouth, and pretended to pounce on her.

Ye Zhenzhen ran ahead, and he chased after her.

On the vast white snow, two sets of footprints, one large and one small, were left behind.

Suddenly, the Little Bean stopped in her tracks. She seemed to have tripped over something furry and almost fell. She looked down to investigate.

The thing seemed to realize that it had been stepped on, and raised its large head to look up.

Their eyes met.

It turned out to be Great White Bear.

"This Great White Bear looks silly, even more like my Little Junior Brother than the snowman I made." She couldn't help but laugh when she saw it. But then the Great White Bear in front of her suddenly stood up, a huge creature, as tall as two people, stretched out its sharp claws and opened its blood-red mouth.

The bear's roar was like the thunder of a drum, deafening.

This sudden and ferocious attack caught Ye Zhenzhen off guard even more than Demon Beast she had encountered before.

"Oh my god, help!" She jumped onto Ye Qingchuan in fright, and he scooped her into his arms. He carried her and ran forward quickly, racing through the snow for a long time before finally shaking off the Great White Bear behind them.

"Didn't we say before that men and women shouldn't touch each other?" He stopped and couldn't help but tease her as he watched her cling tightly to his waist.

The Little Bean pouted, lowered his head, and looked weak and frail. "But I'm not even five years old yet."

"She's still a baby."

Ye Zhenzhen: Who isn't a baby at first?

This chapter is purely for fun, haha ...

Chapter 53

================

Ye Zhenzhen felt that the experience of watching the snow was not pleasant enough, and she did not want to return to the sect early, so she took the Flying Boat and flew south again.

The north side of the Mortal World is covered in ice and snow, but what kind of beautiful scenery awaits in the south?

As darkness fell, thousands of lanterns floated into the sky, converging into a brightly lit river, a scene both dreamlike and enchanting.

"Third Senior Brother, what's going on over there? Are they celebrating some kind of festival? Let's go take a look." Ye Zhenzhen changed the direction of the Flying Boat and landed in a capital city in the south.

The city was ablaze with lanterns, filled with the sounds of gongs and drums, and dazzling with lights.

Crowds thronged the streets and alleys, a constant flow of traffic and people. People carried all sorts of lanterns, such as lotus lanterns, revolving lanterns, and rabbit lanterns, as well as some oval-shaped painted palace lanterns, which looked particularly artistic. Everywhere there were festive activities such as dragon and lion dances, fire-breathing and hoop jumping, and stilt walking, and the whole city was immersed in a lively and festive atmosphere.

"It's so lively!" Ye Zhenzhen couldn't help but exclaim.

"Today is the Mortal World Lantern Festival, and every household decorates with lanterns and colorful decorations to celebrate this festival," Ye Qingchuan explained.

Street vendors lined up in alleys, selling lanterns, candied hawthorns, hairpins and other small ornaments—a dazzling array that was hard to resist.

"Those Rabbit Lantern are so cute! Senior brother, I want one too!" The Little Bean's eyes lit up as he looked at the row of Rabbit Lantern next to him, which had colorful sequins on their eyes and two long ears. He jumped up and down excitedly like a little rabbit.

"Boss, how much is this Rabbit Lantern?" The two arrived at the lantern stall, and Ye Zhenzhen picked up a Rabbit Lantern and asked.

"One hundred coins per lantern." Seeing that the two were dressed in fine clothes, the lantern vendor assumed they were big customers and replied enthusiastically, "If you pay 150 coins, I can give you two lanterns."

The Cultivation World doesn't have the gold and silver items found in the mortal Mortal World. After fumbling around for a while, Ye Qingchuan finally pulled out a pile of glittering Superior Spirit Stone. "Shopkeeper, would these be alright?"

The vendor glanced at his pile of stones and immediately his face changed. "Young man, you think you can fool me with a bunch of stinky stones? I don't want these rotten stones."

Seeing this, Ye Zhenzhen gritted her teeth and took out several Top-Grade Spirit Stone rich in Spiritual Qi, saying, "These should be enough, right?" One Top-Grade Spirit Stone could be exchanged for thousands of rabbits in the Cultivation World. Using it to buy a Rabbit Lantern was really a bargain for the shopkeeper.

"Stones again! You two dress all smartly, yet you always try to swindle people with stones. Are you con artists? If you don't have money, get the hell out of here!" The vendor cursed, snatching the Rabbit Lantern from Ye Zhenzhen's hand and issuing a shoo-in order to leave. "Go, go, go! Don't interrupt my business!"

"Hateful!"
