Those who can temporarily reside in Plum Fragrance Heaven are all powerful individuals with considerable reputation in North Isle, and most of them are quite old. The few young people are all from major sects and have formidable identities.
However, the intimidating status is only for others to perceive. Yang Zhen had never even heard of those sects, so it was likely either that the sects themselves were low-key or that their successors were low-key.
After Liu Xian left, she repeatedly reminded everyone that Yang Zhen was not Yang Zhen, but Yang Kaixin. As for the Shameless Cat," it was an adorable kitten that Yang Zhen had taken in at the entrance of the Holy Domain on her way here.
No one was stupid, and everyone readily agreed. Although there were still some suspicious people among them, most people accepted it. Moreover, Yang Kaixin was a low-key person, unlike Yang Zhen who was so ostentatious and deceitful, so everyone turned a blind eye.
In reality, even if Yang Kaixin really is Yang Zhen, as long as he doesn't clash with others or trick them, no one will provoke him. On the contrary, many disciples of major sects are very interested in Yang Zhen and take the initiative to chat with him.
Among them was a chubby boy who piqued Yang Zhen's interest. This chubby boy was a disciple of the Cloud Void Sect. He had a round and chubby appearance and always smiled before speaking to people. He seemed very polite and was very outgoing, able to chat with anyone.
After Liu Xian left, everyone exchanged a few pleasantries and departed. The chubby boy, however, darted around with his eyes darting about, and approached Yang Zhen: "Brother, are you really not Yang Zhen?"
Yang Zhen also had a good impression of the chubby boy. Hearing this, he shook his head and said, "Like I said before, does it matter whether I am Yang Zhen or not? I originally thought you wouldn't care about these empty titles. What, do you also think I should be Yang Zhen?"
The chubby boy pouted and said, "What does it matter to me whether you're Yang Zhen or not? By the way, my name is Qi Dinglong, just call me Dalong. You cat..."
Seeing the look in Qi Dinglong's eyes, the Shameless Cat's tail bristled, and it glared fiercely at the chubby boy, growling, "Meow!"
The chubby boy chuckled, rubbing his hands together as if he wanted to pet a cat. Yang Zhen looked on in bewilderment and asked, "You like cats?"
"This..." The chubby boy was a little embarrassed, scratching his head as he said, "Yes, I've loved cats since I was a child, and I've kept quite a few in the sect, but I've never seen such a spiritual cat before."
At this point, the chubby boy's eyes lit up, and he said to Yang Zhen, "Five amethyst crystals, I'll offer five amethyst crystals, how about you sell me this kitten?"
"Okay... dig for grass!"
Yang Zhen pried open the Shameless Cat's mouth, shook his head, and said, "Forget it, this bastard dared to bite me. I'm going back to pet my cat."
"No, no, Brother Yang, please reconsider?"
The chubby boy relentlessly chased after Yang Zhen, leaving the surrounding crowd dumbfounded.
"A cat costs five amethyst crystals? Who is this chubby kid? Does he own an amethyst mine?"
"That Yang Kaixin seemed to be about to sell it just now. It seems he's not Yang Zhen. How could Yang Zhen be willing to sell that Shameless Cat for just five amethyst crystals?"
"Of course it wasn't Yang Zhen. Didn't you hear what Miss Liu Xian said? That fat cat only came over when she was entertaining Yang Zhen."
Amidst the lively discussion, Yang Zhen arrived at the Plum Fragrance Heaven Apricot Blossom Residence that Liu Xian had told him about, and was immediately very satisfied.
Apricot Blossom Residence is a small house made of bamboo, with its own entrance and courtyard. It looks beautiful and magnificent. Moreover, if Yang Zhen is not mistaken, these bamboos are not ordinary bamboos, but are made of Heavenly Orchid Bamboo.
This type of bamboo is famous in North Isle for its ability to help one concentrate and is quite valuable. It's surprising that Heavenly Snow Sacred Domain would use this type of bamboo to build houses; they are truly wealthy and extravagant.
The chubby boy who had been following Yang Zhen let out a loud "Ah-ha!", startling Yang Zhen turned around, looking bewildered, and asked, "Fellow Daoist, what are you yelling about? What if you disturb the flowers and plants?"
The chubby boy was stunned, his eyes widening. He muttered, "If I hadn't seen you dressed as a scholar, I would have really thought you were a monk. But monks are usually detached from worldly affairs, and it's hard to even meet one. I mean, we two are really destined to meet!"
Yang Zhen was completely bewildered by the chubby boy's whimsical way of speaking, and asked strangely, "What's the connection between us?"
The chubby boy said smugly, "We've all come to the Heavenly Snow Sacred Domain, we all like cats, and we even want to live together. Don't you think it's fate...? What's with that expression?"
Yang Zhen stared at the chubby boy with a look of horror, took two steps back, and stared at the boy's face with a wary and bewildered expression. He said, "What do you mean by living together? Damn it, don't tell me you also Apricot Blossom Residence. What's going on in Heavenly Snow Sacred Domain, letting two men live in one room?"
"Isn't it more embarrassing for two men to share a room, or for a man and a woman to share a room?"
The chubby boy looked completely bewildered, then his expression changed, and he jumped back with a thud, looking at Yang Zhen warily. "What are you thinking? Who wants to share a room with you?"
Seeing the chubby boy's almost reflexive reaction, Yang Zhen breathed a sigh of relief and asked curiously, "Didn't you say we'd live together?"
The chubby boy shuddered and pointed to a wooden house nearby, saying, "This is where I live. It's not Apricot Blossom Residence, it's Chrysanthemum Pavilion!"
"Chrysanthemum... Pavilion?" Yang Zhen glanced at the sect's residence in the next house, his expression suddenly turning strange. He laughed heartily, patted the chubby boy's shoulder, and said, "Not bad, not bad. It's good that we're not living together. Chrysanthemum Pavilion Chrysanthemum Pavilion nice. It suits your temperament perfectly. How about you call me Brother Chrysanthemum from now on?"
"No, the name 'Brother Chrysanthemum' is too flashy and doesn't suit my style."
The chubby boy completely rejected the name, but Yang Zhen didn't care whether he rejected it or not, or whether he liked it or not, and just put it on him.
" Brother Chrysanthemum, how much longer are we going to stay here?"
The chubby boy's lips twitched as he said, "I don't know either, but I heard that the people from the Heavenly Snow Sacred Domain and the Heavenly Spring Sacred Land seem to have some issues that haven't been resolved and they've started arguing. I guess they'll start arguing once everyone is here and they've finished arguing."
"How much do you know about this Heavenly Snow Sacred Domain Grand Assembly?"
The chubby boy glared at them, cursed, and said, "It's just a few useless pieces of information. These people are too good at keeping things secret. I've been trying to find out anything useful for the past few days. But I did hear that this operation is related to the True Essence burst two years ago."
Yang Zhen's brow twitched upon hearing this, and he asked, "What does that have to do with anything?"
The chubby boy scoffed, "Without that burst of True Essence, these holy domains and holy lands wouldn't have woken up at all. This time it'll probably be a similar operation, only more complicated..."
At this point, the chubby boy pouted and said, "Alright, let's not talk about that anymore. It's not really relevant to us. Let's talk about this kitten instead."
Yang Zhen shook his head and then asked, "Who are the people living here now?"
The chubby boy's eyes lit up at this, and he said slyly, "Speaking of which, as your brother, I have to remind you, if you know anything about formations, you'd better set up a formation for Apricot Blossom Residence..."
"Why?"
Yang Zhen's heart skipped a beat. Could there be some danger here?
Was someone robbing us in the middle of the night, or perhaps even sexually assaulting us?
I never expected the women of the Heavenly Snow Sacred Domain to be so fierce!
Yang Zhen was lost in thought, a deafening roar erupted, sending Yang Zhen, the chubby boy, and the magnificent Apricot Blossom Residence flying.
"Dig up the grass, what happened?"
Yang Zhen was stunned after being blown up in mid-air and performing two Thomas Flair spins.
What's wrong?
Are you going to start a fight without saying a word?
Who threw the grenade?
