Longevity through Upgrading Buildings

Chapter 483: Chapter 232: Nascent Soul True Monarch—Hua Yaoyue!

”Indeed.”

Hearing Kong Xifeng’s tone, she most likely is familiar with Mei Manor, or at least has heard of this figure... Ji Yuan nodded earnestly.

”Running into him, it’s no wonder you had the chance to use the Teleportation Order to escape.”

”Supreme Elder means...”

Ji Yuan asked when he didn’t understand.

”His temperament is always casual, if you had encountered the other old demons within the Shang Court, they might have killed you with just a disagreement.”

Kong Xifeng said casually.

...So, should I consider myself lucky or unlucky?

Ji Yuan felt a bit helpless for a moment.

”In any case, it’s good that you came back. Be careful next time you go out.”

Kong Xifeng didn’t say much more. The fact that she said these few words was already on account of... Hua Yaoyue. If it were someone else, she might have already thrown them out.

”I’ll leave you young people to chat, I won’t disturb you.”

After Kong Xifeng finished speaking, she instantly disappeared from the scene.

Ji Yuan didn’t even notice how she left, just could say, Nascent Soul Monster... terrifying indeed!

With the master not around, Wen Linger was even more free. She quickly walked up and took Ji Yuan by the arm. ”Let’s go, Brother Ji, I’ll show you around Qingfeng Island.”

”Let me tell you, it’s been over ten years, and Master wouldn’t let me out except to go home, always saying to wait a bit longer.”

”I’m so fed up staying on this Qingfeng Island.”

With the Supreme Elder around, Ji Yuan felt embarrassed to be held by Wen Linger all the time, so he quickly stepped forward a few steps and gently pulled her arm away.

Wen Linger seemed a bit puzzled.

But Ji Yuan quickly changed the subject, ”Where are Brother Wen and the others now? Are they doing well? I’ve been looking for them all these years but never met them.”

”They’re doing fine, hmph, they do nothing all day but fish and don’t even refine pills anymore.”

”They’re living on Misty Island within the sect now. That place needs someone from within to find it. The first time I went, it was Sect Leader Brother who took me.”

”Sect Leader Brother?”

Ji Yuan was a bit surprised by the title.

”Yes, Master told me to call him that. Besides him, I have Brother Yun Yuan, Brother Xuan Xiao, Brother Lie Xiao, Sister Suxin...”

Wen Linger counted them one by one on her fingers.

Ji Yuan couldn’t help but twitch slightly at the corners of his mouth. How could he not understand what Wen Linger meant?

She had apprenticed under the Nascent Soul Stage Supreme Elder, so all the other Golden Core Zhenrens within the sect became her elder brothers and sisters.

So, should I call Wen Linger... Aunt Wen?

”Ling Er, how did your cultivation reach the Peak of Foundation Establishment?”

Ji Yuan looked around at the surrounding mountains and rivers, seemingly asking casually.

He was curious about how terrifyingly fast the cultivation speed of an Abnormal Spirit Root was.

Ji Yuan was born with a Pseudo Spirit Root, but through his efforts and a little help from the interface, he reached the Late-stage Foundation Establishment in just twelve years.

But Wen Linger?

Twelve years.

From an ordinary person with no cultivation to a major expert at the Peak of Foundation Establishment!

”I just cultivated, and my cultivation level rose.”

Wen Linger said, still posing in a meditation posture, ”But cultivation is so tiring, Master keeps pushing me to cultivate every day.”

”And now my cultivation progress is really slow.”

”Slow?”

”Yes, at first, I’d have breakthroughs after just a few days of cultivating, but now it’s so hard. I’ve been at the Peak of Foundation Establishment for almost half a year, and I still don’t know how to form a core, I can’t even fake a Pill, sigh.”

Wen Linger seemed a bit unhappy, even kicking small stones on the ground as she walked.

...I really shouldn’t have asked.

Ji Yuan chuckled and asked, ”Can outsiders go to Misty Island where Brother Wen is staying?”

Wen Linger might not notice much, but Ji Yuan could guess that Misty Island was likely inhabited by some ”connected individuals.”

Allowing certain disciples to not worry about anything and focus on stable cultivation.

”Yes, I’ll just tell Master later. I can take you to see my parents; they’ve been talking about you all these years.”

”No need, just take him there.”

Kong Xifeng’s voice echoed in both of their ears.

It made Ji Yuan pause... This Supreme Elder had been observing all along, blatantly disregarding the ways of the Jianghu.

”Okay, thank you, Master.”

Their conversation continued as they walked outside.

As they walked, Wen Linger kept introducing things to Ji Yuan, saying what was what and sharing the events she experienced there.

She was eager to share all the experiences she had over the years with Ji Yuan.

Until she was almost about to teach him her cultivation technique.

Only then did Kong Xifeng speak again: ”Ji Yuan, right? Your master has arrived.”

”Master?”

Ji Yuan was overjoyed and quickly looked towards the outside of the island.

He saw a streak of white light swiftly coming from the east, creating waves and scattering clouds.

”Ling Er, wait a moment, I’ll go see my master.”

”I want to go too!”

Wen Linger immediately shouted.

Then Ji Yuan called out the Flying Boat Fenghuai, rising into the air and heading outside the island.

Hua Yaoyue stopped just in time in front of him.

”Disciple greets Master.”

Ji Yuan quickly cupped his hands and bowed.

Hua Yaoyue looked him up and down, confirming he was unharmed before asking, ”Who did you encounter?”

”The person I ran into last time on Celestial Pillar Mountain, met him again at Mirror Lake. It was Mei Manor.” Ji Yuan hurriedly explained.

”Oh? It was him, huh.”

Hua Yaoyue’s expression remained unchanged, casually saying, ”Alright, if nothing’s wrong, wait for me on Wan You Island. I have matters to discuss with the Elder.”
