Chapter 396: Wutong Mountain Visits Grandmaster Shen
Chapter 396: Wutong Mountain Visits Grandmaster Shen
"Senior Sister, please try to control your temper later and don't act like you did last time..."
Qingfeng Zhenren stood on auspicious clouds but did not directly descend upon the Armament Sect.
He tugged at Lingxi's sleeve, earnestly persuading her, "His temper is not as good as Little Jiang's. This is Master's decree, so don't ruin things."
Reasonably speaking, even if the most favored Nie Shixiong was to be replaced, there was still the Grand Senior Sister in the mountains, so why would an outsider be chosen?
This was even more chilling than the last incident.
Obviously, the last time Master accepted Jiang Qiulan as a disciple, the Grand Senior Sister's reaction, with envy almost written on her face, had made Qingfeng quite worried.
"..."
Lingxi Zhenren pursed her lips and glanced at the young boy beside her.
According to her previous temperament, based on Qingfeng's words alone, she would have endured a spiritual pressure attack.
But now, it was different.
Even after arriving in Great Tian, she hadn't felt any resentment.
With her talent and temperament, it was indeed difficult for her to shoulder great responsibilities, something everyone knew, but no one had ever reminded her to her face.
Thinking of this, Lingxi didn't explain further, instead, she lightly nodded, "Mm."
She couldn't handle major matters, but she could still manage minor ones.
Master had sent her here merely to show Wutong Mountain's esteem for that cultivator. All she needed to do was maintain a dignified aura and speak sparingly.
"It's good that you understand."
Qingfeng heaved a sigh of relief. Not to mention anything else, but after returning from the Thousand Demons Cave, Senior Sister had become much gentler.
Jiang Qiulan stood quietly behind the two.
Her expression remained unchanged.
But in her heart, she felt a myriad of emotions.
Recalling how she had once reminded Shen Yi to stay away from the Immortal Sect as much as possible if it wasn't necessary, as with his level of comprehension, he wouldn't need any guidance and would definitely break through to the Soul Transformation Stage.
To avoid being restricted by others.
But even she had never imagined that in such a short time, the young man had reached a point where Wutong Mountain had to personally come to invite him.
These proud cultivators had put aside their superior attitudes and started considering the matter of gifts and courtesies.
Indeed, the world was ever-changing.
As the two conversed, they were unaware of the commotion that had already begun below in the Armament Sect.
Led by Zhu Jue, the Yin Spirits, along with Wu Daoan and numerous Armament Sect disciples, slowly ascended to the mountain peak.
After the conflict between the Xu family and the Black Light Cave.
Senior Miao had made it clear that, regardless of good or bad, he would no longer involve himself in Great Tian's affairs.
But now, with the invasion of demons and monsters, first, there was Xuan Jian Zhenren's intervention, followed by the arrival of another Wutong Mountain senior.
Zhu Jue looked up at the clouds.
He didn't quite understand what was happening.
Could it be that Wutong Mountain's arrogance over the years had been a facade, and they had always considered Great Tian as close allies?
Nonsense...
He quietly glanced at the house behind him, guessing it was still because of Shen Shidi.
As expected, the next moment, a crisp voice rang out from the horizon, "Wutong Mountain disciples have come to visit Grandmaster Shen of Great Tian. We hope you will convey our message."
Upon hearing this, not only the Armament Sect disciples but even several Yin Spirits showed puzzled expressions.
They had never heard such polite words from Wutong Mountain before.
In the past, before the person even arrived, the decree would have been issued, and they would have had to welcome them from a thousand miles away.
Now, they had come to the doorstep and even knew to send a messenger first.
"Senior Qingfeng, please take the main seat. Grandmaster Shen is currently in closed-door cultivation and will require you to wait for some time."
Zhu Jue responded calmly, even though he knew that these people most likely couldn't see him, he still maintained his manners and cupped his hands in greeting.
(End of Chapter)Bowing in greeting was a customary etiquette in Great Tian, and waiting was a favor for Shen Shidi.
The current Shen Temple Celebrant no longer needed to hastily put aside his work and rush out to greet them with utmost respect.
"..."
Qingfeng Zhenren helplessly scratched his head and secretly glanced at his senior sister.
He didn't care, but he was afraid that his senior sister would feel embarrassed and do something foolish.
"Go back."
Lingxi's expression remained unchanged as she lightly nodded.
As the three of them descended to the mountain peak together, they saw the woman at the forefront.
Upon seeing the woman's appearance, Zhu Jue and Wu Daoan exchanged a glance, "..."
A guess formed in their minds.
The senior sister of Wutong Mountain, the rumored Lingxi Zhenren.
Why is she here too?
She was a senior with even greater strength than Nie Jun.
It was said that she had already entered the Profound Spirit Perfection and had touched upon an even higher realm.
Why would such a person visit Shen Shidi? Could it be that she had ill intentions?
"Stop guessing and quickly get Shen Yi to come out..." Qingfeng Zhenren took a few steps forward and whispered, "I've even treated him to a meal before, he's not an outsider."
"..."
Zhu Jue remained silent for a moment, then shook his head and said, "Please be patient, everyone. Shen Shidi's closed-door cultivation is the most important matter for Great Tian, and we cannot disturb him."
"You guys! Hiss!" Li Qingfeng rolled his eyes and waved his sleeves in annoyance. These people were as stubborn as mules.
Just as Zhu Jue had refused, he didn't notice that Wu Daoan behind him winked.
"Hey."
Wu Daoan stroked his beard and looked at the most quiet one among the three.
If he remembered correctly, during the Martial Temple Purification, when he gave Shen Shidi the Abyssal Potential, wasn't this girl by his side?
Haha! Zhu Jue, your brain isn't as good as mine, you're too rigid!
With this thought, Wu Daoan quietly slipped away from the crowd and floated towards the wooden house, standing at the door and calling out softly, "Shen Shidi, your old friend is here!"
"..."
Finally, Shen Yi managed to suppress the poison, and his complexion returned to normal.
He pushed open the door and glanced at the old man.
Why hadn't he noticed how gossipy this old man was before?
Shen Yi slowly walked to the front of the crowd and said indifferently, "If you have something to say, say it."
Qingfeng had intended to greet the young man, but he didn't expect that the other party would not show any kindness and seemed to be somewhat dissatisfied.
What did I do to offend you?
Li Qingfeng was puzzled and instinctively looked at Lingxi.
He knew this young man had a bad temper, but he didn't expect him to have such an attitude. He remembered that he was quite easy to talk to at the Eight Directions Dining Hall.
Could it be that the senior sister was angry?
However, just as he glanced at her, Li Qingfeng froze in his tracks.
He saw Lingxi's eyes widen, her eyelashes trembling slightly, and even her breathing became chaotic.
She stared at the handsome face beneath the scattered strands of the black-robed youth's hair as if she had been struck by lightning.
"Isn't this a bit too much..."
Li Qingfeng knew that his senior sister valued appearance, and even when accepting disciples, she would choose those with extraordinary looks.
Shen Yi was indeed quite good-looking, but was it to this extent?
Jiang Qiulan looked at the woman beside her, and a hint of confusion appeared in her clear eyes.
Just then, she heard a calm voice.
"Come here."
Shen Yi gestured slightly.
Jiang Qiulan subconsciously took a step forward, but she saw that Lingxi had already walked out ahead of her.
She paused for a moment, "..."
After confirming that Shen Yi was looking at her, she walked out again.
