The night was as dark as ink. Long Ling'er had already fallen asleep peacefully under Ye Futian's music.
The music stopped. Ye Futian stood up and bid farewell to the two maids before leaving.
After he left, the two maids looked at each other. One of them said, "Young Mistress has been in a much better mood these days."
"Yes. Although Young Mistress bickered with him every day, she actually enjoyed the process. After that incident a few years ago, no one played with Young Mistress anymore. Master and Madam became strict and Young Mistress became hot-tempered. No one else in the family dared to be so presumptuous in front of Young Mistress. They were either jealous or respectful. Although Young Master dotes on Young Mistress, his personality …"
The other shook her head lightly. They had watched Long Ling'er grow up and knew that many things had changed since the previous family leader had passed away. They hadn't seen Young Mistress like this in a long time.
"But this guy is really bold. Doesn't he know Young Mistress's identity? How dare he play around like this?" The maid from earlier smiled. "Plus, his looks and talent are both outstanding."
Ye Futian didn't know the two maids were talking about him. Although he didn't know Long Ling 'er's identity, he could guess. A 13-year-old girl dared to say she would buy the Celestial Pavilion. How could her family be simple? But he had always been indifferent to things like family background. He only knew that Long Ling' er seriously lacked love, so he played around with her for a few days.
But regarding many things, his heart was as clear as a mirror.
For example, at this moment, an elder appeared in front of his pavilion. Ye Futian wasn't surprised. He walked up and bowed. "Ye Futian greets you, Senior."
"You're also a Dragon Master?" the person asked. It was the elder who had taught Long Ling'er music.
"No." Ye Futian did not hide his teachings from Long Ling 'er, nor did he think about hiding it. After all, he had secretly learned from the old man, so he might as well show it openly. If something was discovered in the future, it would make people feel even more disgusted. Moreover, he could teach that girl.
"Then how did you learn my music?" The elder asked curiously. Those who weren't Dragon Masters didn't have special talents. Normally, they couldn't learn it. Even if they knew music, they couldn't truly communicate with demonic dragons.
"I'm a Musical Sorcerer and a Beast Tamer, so I can imitate it. However, it's not a true Dragon Master's ability, and I didn't mean to steal it. Please forgive me, Senior." The ability he displayed was slightly different from that of a Dragon Master. He used communication to control and form a connection with the demonic dragon, while a Dragon Master's was more pure, it was resonance.
"I understand." The old man nodded his head. Then, his body flashed and he disappeared.
"So fast." He did not think too much about it. With the old man's plane, he would not do anything to him over such a small matter. Moreover, he had admitted it.
After the old man left, he returned to the waterfall mountain. The few guards who came with Long Ling'er were waiting there. When they saw the old man, they bowed and said, "Senior."
"How is it?" the old man asked.
"There shouldn't be a problem. That encounter was a coincidence. His companions were all outsiders," the man replied.
"Yes, there shouldn't be a problem, but since it involves Ling'er, we still need to be careful. Since there's nothing, everything will be normal. There's no need to interfere. Ling'er seems to like him, so it's good to have someone to cultivate with her." The old man waved his hand and said, "Go."
"Okay." The man nodded. "Should we think of a way to let him enter the Starry School to cultivate with Miss?"
"We'll talk about this later. We don't know his opinion yet. Perhaps he came to the Divine Sky City for the Top Three Schools. Learning music in a few days means that his talent is not a problem. Also, it's enough that Madam only knows about this. There's no need to spread it," the old man said.
"Understood. We'll leave now." The few people bowed and left.
The next day, after Long Ling'er woke up, she called Ye Futian to the waterfall mountain to cultivate and learn music. As usual, the old man waited there and taught Long Ling'er. There was nothing special.
Ye Futian understood that the old man had tacitly allowed him to follow.
Thus, although Ye Futian was a musical attendant, he was also learning the Dragon Ruler Guqin.
After learning, he would teach Long Ling'er. In the following days, the happiest person was naturally Long Ling'er. With two people teaching at the same time, Grandpa Feng was the main person while Ye Futian taught the details and corrected mistakes. She learned very quickly.
The days in the West Court were peaceful and simple. Although Long Ling'er's attitude towards Ye Futian did not change much, the two would still quarrel occasionally.
On the outside, something shocking happened near the Starry School.
The Celestial Pavilion, one of the three most famous inns in the Divine Sky City, had a new owner. It was bought and was being handed over.
As a top inn in the Divine Sky City, the Celestial Pavilion had a strong background. The person behind it did not lack money at all. Those who stayed or drank at the Celestial Pavilion were all of high status. There was a special meaning to this. Under such a background, the Celestial Pavilion was actually bought. This naturally caused a small commotion.
However, news spread that the person who bought the Celestial Pavilion was the family from the West Mountain. Thus, many people were not so surprised.
Since it was that family, buying the Celestial Pavilion was naturally a small matter. However, many people were curious. Why did the family from the West Mountain want to buy the Celestial Pavilion?
Rumor had it that he would also enter the Starry School to cultivate at the beginning of next year. Could it be for her to live in?
However, there was a West Court near the Starry School, which was also the family's private residence. A very terrifying person lived there. What was the point of buying the Celestial Pavilion?
Many people could not understand this. However, the people who discussed it all laughed and sighed. Powerful people were always so capricious. Why did they need a reason?
They probably would not have guessed that the Celestial Pavilion was bought because of a little girl and a black-bellied guy. The original cause was that someone could not afford to live in the Celestial Pavilion and was looked down upon by a beautiful girl. Thus, he had been brooding over it.
Apart from the Celestial Pavilion, the Starry School's end-of-year examination also caused quite a commotion, especially within the Starry School. It was one of the biggest events in the school every year.
…
In the West Court, Long Ling'er learned another song and was very excited.
She looked at Ye Futian and smiled. "Brother Futian, am I great?"
"Just so-so. It's mainly because you have two good teachers," Ye Futian said lazily.
"Hmph, can't you give me some encouragement?" Long Ling'er glared at Ye Futian.
"Then why don't you fly into the sky?" Ye Futian looked at the little girl in disdain.
Long Ling'er put her hands on her hips and took out an ancient token. She pouted and passed it to Ye Futian. "For you."
Ye Futian took the ancient token and looked at the words carved on it: Celestial Pavilion.
Although he had guessed that it would not be difficult for Long Ling'er, he did not expect it to be so simple. When the two of them were fooling around, Long Ling'er said that as long as he taught her, she would buy the Celestial Pavilion for him. In just a few days, Long Ling'er really bought the Celestial Pavilion …
Ye Futian sighed in his heart. She was so rich that she was inhumane.
Facing such a little girl, Ye Futian only wanted to say, "Remember to find me again when something like this happens again."
"…" The little girl looked at Ye Futian and blinked. She was stunned for a few seconds, then said, "That's it?"
"Good girl." Ye Futian rubbed the little girl's head.
The little girl's face darkened. She said angrily, "Shouldn't you pretend to reject it humbly and accept it in the end, then praise me?"
"Kids shouldn't think too much." Ye Futian patted the back of the little girl's head lightly.
"I didn't expect you to be this kind of person." Long Ling'er was about to cry.
"You found out."
"Sob …" Long Ling'er turned around and walked to the two servants behind her. She said, "I want to go out and play."
Ye Futian was stunned. He thought that the little girl had suffered a blow. She was indeed too young to look down on a little girl …
"Miss, we can't make this decision," the servant said.
"Uncle Yang," the little girl shouted. The little loli shouted loudly. Soon, the middle-aged man from before appeared and said, "Miss is looking for me."
"I want to go out," Long Ling'er said seriously.
"Miss, the madam said that cultivation is the main thing in the West Court until you enter the Starry School," Yang Xing said.
"I've already learned so quickly. Can't I go to the Celestial Pavilion to thank Brother Futian? Also, I promised to give the Celestial Pavilion to Brother Futian, so I naturally have to go and see, "Long Ling'er said. Ye Futian was the scapegoat for no reason.
"This …" Yang Xing hesitated.
Long Ling'er ran to Ye Futian's side and held his arm. "Uncle Yang, don't worry. With Brother Futian here, I won't mess around anymore."
Ye Futian had a headache. He couldn't reject this scapegoat.
Yang Xing glanced at Ye Futian and nodded lightly. "Alright."
"Thank you, Uncle Yang." The little girl smiled brightly. She finally got what she wanted.
…
The Celestial Pavilion was especially lively these two days. First, it was because the West Mountain clan had bought the Celestial Pavilion and attracted much attention.
Second, it was because of the Starry School's year-end examination nearby. Many outstanding disciples came here to celebrate.
At the moment, many Starry School disciples came to the Celestial Pavilion.
Jiang Nan and Wang Yuqing were standing outside. Wang Yuqing looked up at the gorgeous door of the Celestial Pavilion and felt a little emotional.
Although she was a disciple of one of the four top clans in Yunyue City and was definitely a core figure, it was still very luxurious to come to a place like the Celestial Pavilion. Be it food or accommodation, they were all paid in ritual implements and didn't accept spiritual stones. Coming to the Celestial Pavilion was a symbol of status.
Wang Yuqing had never been here before. Such a luxurious thing was not necessary for her. Even if she really met some important people in the Celestial Pavilion, they wouldn't have much interaction due to the difference in status.
However, today, because Jiang Nan had achieved very outstanding results in the year-end examination, they came here to celebrate.
