The next day. Dao Court.
Early in the morning, the Dao discussion was about to begin. Jiang Qingcheng sat cross-legged and slept the entire night. He didn't know what he was thinking about in his dream, but when he woke up, he remembered the Third Elder.
"Third Elder." Jiang Qingcheng woke up from his dream and saw that the room was empty. Clearly, the Third Elder didn't call him when he left. Jiang Qingcheng felt a little apologetic. He was asked to follow the Third Elder to do some service work, such as fetching water and noodles, or holding a spittoon when the Third Elder wanted to spit. Of course, Ye Kong didn't have that problem.
The Third Elder had already gone to listen to the Dao discussion, but he was still sleeping.
However, Jiang Qingcheng's guilt only lasted for a moment. After a moment, he started to resent the Third Elder. Why didn't he call me? I still wanted to see Fairy Xiling Lin. Didn't I miss it?
Jiang Qingcheng hurriedly got up. When he came out and saw the sun, he relaxed. It was still early and the Dao discussion hadn't started yet. He didn't have time to eat breakfast, but he still had to wash his face. Regardless of whether Fairy Lin would look at him or not, he still had to clean up. He was going to see his idol, so he had to be particular.
On the way to the Dao Court, there was an ornamental spring. Jiang Qingcheng didn't care about morality and directly ran over. He scooped up a handful of water and casually rubbed it on his face. He washed it and wiped his face with his sleeves. Only then did he realize that there were some water droplets on his clothes.
Jiang Qingcheng was brushing away the water droplets when he saw a group of people walking over. In the middle of the group, there was a middle-aged bearded man dressed in luxurious clothes. Jiang Qingcheng recognized him. He was the head of the Zhai family, the actual controller of the White Hair Region, Di Dongliang!
Although Di Dongliang hadn't exterminated the Yangquan Mountain Salt Bandits, he was still an official and a bandit. Jiang Qingcheng couldn't help but take a few steps back. However, his gaze quickly fell on the person beside Di Dongliang.
It was a woman in her twenties. She was dressed in white and looked like a fairy. With just one glance, the woman's expression and charm made Jiang Qingcheng feel like his soul had left his body. He was petrified.
Did he see it? Did he really see it? This was the idol in his heart! A voice was shouting in Jiang Qingcheng's heart. However, by the time he came back to his senses, the group of people had already walked past him.
The moment she passed by, the woman's gaze inadvertently swept across Jiang Qingcheng's face … And it was this gaze that caused Jiang Qingcheng to once again be petrified!
Cake seller! It was actually her! She was Xi Ling Lin!
Of course, the cake seller learned it from the Third Head. Jiang Qingcheng did not understand what it meant. In short, the Third Head was such a capable and talented person. Even a casual sentence from him was so profound and particular. If he could learn even a little bit of the Third Head's skills, he would not be far from becoming a Golden Immortal.
Thinking of the Third Head, Jiang Qingcheng was shocked in his heart!
If that person was Fairy Xiling Lin, then didn't she hear their conversation last night? And the Third Master's plan of killing two birds with one stone … Jiang Qingcheng still had some hope. He hurriedly pulled a person beside him who had also stopped to watch, and asked, "Senior, was it Fairy Xi Linglin who just passed by? No way! "
"Why not? Such graceful steps, such peerless elegance. If it wasn't for Fairy Lin, I'm afraid there wouldn't be any fairies in the world. " Obviously, this person was also a kindred spirit. Looking in the direction where Xi Linglin disappeared, his eyes were still filled with infatuation.
Jiang Qingcheng felt like he was about to faint. He murmured, "Isn't she called Peng Lin?"
"Yes, the Western Immortal Emperor's surname is Peng. As for whether she's called Peng Lin …" This fan immediately came back to his senses. He hurriedly retracted his gaze and asked, "Brother, is Fairy Lin really called Peng Lin? How did you know? How did you know her name? Is your source reliable? I'm a translator from Orange Newspaper … "
"Scram!" Jiang Qingcheng kicked that person away and sighed in his heart. It's all our fault for ruining the Third Head's plan of killing two birds with one stone!
Actually, Ye Kong did not intend to kill two birds with one stone. This time, he was really thirsty for knowledge. This time, because Fairy Xi Linglin was here, there were many people. The seats had already been arranged. There were names on the ground. Walk over, sit on the mat, and listen to the preaching.
Ye Kong saw that there were really a lot of people. The huge hall was filled with people. There were actually more than a thousand people!
Ye Kong and the others' mat was at the back. It was basically the worst position. There was no helping it. Who told you to hit that guard yesterday? That guard wouldn't dare to hit you back, but he would still dare to move your seat to the back.
Lord Ye did not think about this. His only regret was that his seat was far from An Junfeng and Fang Yi Yan's.
Just as he was about to sit down, he heard a black-clothed person shouting from the front of the hall, "Hey, Friend Ye, I didn't think I would really run into you. I heard you're famous now."
Before Ye Kong could react, he saw a black whirlwind rushing over. Before he could see the person clearly, the person opposite him had already punched him in the chest. Of course, this kind of punch was not meant to hit people. It was a very friendly kind.
Ye Kong looked again. It turned out to be the shopkeeper of the southern merchant house, Miss Lingzi. Of course, Ye Kong also knew that Lingzi was Zhining, Fairy Zhining.
"Oh, it's …" Ye Kong wanted to say Fairy Zhining, but he thought about it. She hid her name and didn't tell him, so he had to pretend that he didn't know. He changed his words, "It's Little Lingzi …"
But even so, Fairy Zhining still interrupted him unhappily, "Just call me Young Master. Why add 'Little Young Master'!"
"What Little Young Master?" Ye Kong was stunned. When he looked at Fairy Zhining again, he saw that she had already changed into black men's clothing. Her beautiful hair was tied up high into a bun. She looked clean and neat. She looked like a jade-faced young master.
"Yes, yes, yes, Young Master Lingzi." After Ye Kong said that, he felt awkward in his heart. Was there a Young Master called Lingzi?
Fairy Zhining didn't feel that it was inappropriate. She smiled and said, "I heard that Friend Ye was in the limelight last night. He played a mortal song that suppressed Lady Meng Ni's zither song. I also heard the lyrics. It really described the difficulties of immortal cultivators."
Ye Kong could only smile politely and replied, "Young Master Lingzi is indeed well-informed."
Fairy Zhining waved her hand and said, "You flatter me." After saying that, she suddenly thought of something. She patted Ye Kong's shoulder and said, "Let's go. Follow me to the front. We can't see clearly from the back. Fairy Xiling rarely comes here. Since we're here, we have to see clearly."
Ye Kong smiled bitterly and said, "I'm not here to see Fairy Xiling Lin. I've just become a Golden Immortal and I'm not clear about many things. That's why I want to learn a thing or two."
Fairy Zhining slapped her forehead and said, "Look at me. I forgot to congratulate Friend Ye for becoming a Golden Immortal."
Ye Kong said, "It's alright."
As the two spoke, they walked to the front. Ye Kong realized that there were no cushions here. Instead, there were tables with seats. People with money and power were indeed different.
Fairy Zhining's seat was not at the front. Instead, it was in a corner. It seemed that she didn't want to attract attention. However, with Fairy Zhining's personality, even if she told others that she was a fairy, they wouldn't believe her.
There were a few guards standing by Fairy Zhining's table. The leader was the Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal who scolded Ye Kong that day. Ye Kong found it a little funny when Fairy Zhining pulled him to sit.
The Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal stood at the back while letting two low-level Golden Immortals sit. This was interesting. However, Ye Kong also knew that Fairy Zhining must have hidden her cultivation.
Not only were the people in front seated, but there was also tea. The immortal tea tasted good. If there were two plates of melon seeds, it would be even better. Someone thought wickedly in his heart.
Suddenly, he heard Fairy Zhining ask, "Friend Ye ascended from the Purple Azure Star, right?"
Ye Kong's heart froze. He thought to himself, I can't underestimate these fairies. Fairy Zhining looks carefree on the surface. Isn't it a kind of disguise? I almost nodded and said yes just now.
However, he was also an old demon who had lived for hundreds of years. Without changing his expression, he asked curiously, "The Purple Azure Star? Which Lower Realm's Purple Azure Star? I ascended from a place called the Black Horn Star. "
Fairy Zhining was still carefree. She said with a smile, "I've never heard of the Black Horn Star. There are 3,000 Lower Realms, and each realm has countless planets. What a strange name."
Seeing that Fairy Zhining's expression didn't change at all, Ye Kong wondered if he was being overly suspicious. He smiled and asked tentatively, "Then why did Young Master Lingzi mention the Purple Azure Star? Did you ascend from there?"
Ye Kong kicked the ball back, but Fairy Zhining didn't react. She shook her head and said, "No, I have a friend. She said she came from the Purple Azure Star. She has a person she cares about. Coincidentally, his name is also Ye Kong. That's why I asked around. It seems to be a misunderstanding."
Ye Kong felt his heart skip a beat again. Could it be that Lian Ruolan asked her to help ask around?
But in an instant, Ye Kong denied it. First of all, Lian Ruolan wasn't that kind of person. She wouldn't let others ask around. Secondly, Lian Ruolan didn't know why she came up so quickly. What was she asking about?
Ye Kong smiled, "What a coincidence. I wonder if Young Master Lingzi's friend is a man or a woman? If she's as pretty as a flower, I don't mind pretending to be her. "
Fairy Zhining laughed and said, "Friend Ye, you're really greedy. You're about to see the West-Hill Fairy, but now you're thinking about other women. That's not right."
Of course, Ye Kong couldn't let her fool him. He said again, "Young Master Lingzi, you're wrong. Fairy Lin is a famous fairy in the Celestial World. A lowly cultivator like me can only watch from afar and dare not have any improper thoughts. And Young Master Lingzi's friend must be less noble and more practical. "
Fairy Zhining thought to herself, "That friend of mine is also one of the five fairies in the Celestial World. Hmph, you dare to have improper thoughts?"
She was about to speak when she realized that someone beside her was staring blankly out of the hall with a face full of shock.
"The West-Hill Fairy has arrived."
Fairy Zhining was puzzled. When others saw Peng Lin, they were either stunned, infatuated, drooling, or having a nosebleed … But why did you look like you saw a ghost?
