Chapter 823: Chapter 57: Immortal Brew Tower Proprietress

From Cloud Bamboo Mountain to Jianxian City, a journey of thirty thousand miles, would only take two to three days according to the teachings of a Nascent Soul Cultivator, but Qin Gengyun and the others took a full seven days.

Because everyone intentionally wanted to "dye" Luo Xiaohong along the way, they deliberately walked very slowly.

Throughout the journey, every day Xia Qinglian taught Luo Xiaohong how to cook, Mo Xiaolan taught her how to set up a stall, Yun Wu taught her how to dance, Si Minglan taught her how to dress up, and Liu Su taught her gossip.

As for Wei Wan, since she was raised by Chen Qingmo from a young age, she knew nothing but killing and magical combat, so she could only tell her stories to Luo Xiaohong.

Unexpectedly, besides learning cooking from Xia Qinglian, what Luo Xiaohong loved most was listening to Wei Wan’s stories.

Every morning at dawn, Luo Xiaohong would crawl into Wei Wan’s bed, pestering her to continue telling stories.

Unconsciously, Wei Wan felt as if she gained a much younger sister.

And her unbearable past was told to someone unfamiliar for the first time.

Each time after listening, Luo Xiaohong would blink her big eyes and say, "Friend Wei, your father and my master are very similar."

Luo Xiaohong had her own way of addressing people; she called Qin Gengyun "husband," Xia Qinglian "sister," and others "friend."

So, adding a surname in front of "friend," she would call Wei Wan "Friend Wei."

Every day, Wei Wan constantly heard the chatter of "Friend Wei’s" call, and unconsciously got used to it.

Now that Luo Xiaohong suddenly left, it became quiet around her, and Wei Wan felt an empty feeling inside her heart.

Si Minglan suddenly spoke up beside her: "This Tao Spirit Body actually understands the Charm Technique."

Everyone looked at her puzzled, and Si Minglan sighed: "I also feel somewhat distressed, could it be that unknowingly we’ve already fallen into her way?"

Mo Xiaolan said: "Xiaohong’s Tao Heart is pure, flawless. Being with her, we can let go of all vigilance, so we’ve gotten used to her presence, right?"

Yun Wu was getting more distressed as she spoke, tears were about to fall:

"Xiaohong likes us so much, shouldn’t we not deceive her?"

Si Minglan immediately said: "I didn’t deceive her, all the tricks I taught her to entice men are genuine, excellent stuff, okay?"

Mo Xiaolan thought for a while and said: "On the way, I taught her to set up stalls, all based on past experience, nothing false."

Wei Wan: "My stories are all true."

Yun Wu: "I truly taught her to dance earnestly; I can’t be blamed if she couldn’t learn it!"

Xia Qinglian said coolly: "Since three days ago, everything you’ve eaten was made by Xiaohong, I taught the best."

Yun Wu clapped: "Yes, none of us deceived Xiaohong, so who on earth deceived her?"

All the women turned their heads to Qin Gengyun.

Qin Gengyun looked bewildered: "Am I the only bad guy here?"

Yun Wu worriedly said: "Xiaohong even fought with her junior for us; will her master punish her when she returns?"

Si Minglan said: "After all, that’s her master; at most, he will confine her and not let her descend the mountain."

Xia Qinglian frowned slightly: "Xiaohong is no longer a blank slate easily controlled; Immortal Flying Pavilion might not let it rest."

Qin Gengyun pondered for a moment, "Tomorrow, when we arrive at Immortal Flying Peak, I’ll find a way to investigate."

Xia Qinglian asked: "If Xiaohong is in an unfavorable situation, what will you do?"

Qin Gengyun said: "If she wants to leave the mountain, I will do my best to help her."

Liu Su reminded: "Won’t that put you at odds with Immortal Flying Pavilion?"

Si Minglan said: "If that’s the case, West Imperial Dynasty will stand with Qinlian Sect."

Back then, to avenge the destruction of my sect, I opposed the entire West Imperial Dynasty, and Qin Gengyun and others helped me with no hesitation.

Mo Xiaolan also said: "Back in Yunling Town, when I was bullied by Zhou Kun, Qin Gengyun dared to face the Fifth-Layer with a Third-Layer level. This entire journey, we came this far in this way."

"If we’re heartless to Luo Xiaohong, then we are no different from the likes of Chen Qingmo."

"Sister Mo is right!" Yun Wu shouted:

"Brother Qin, tomorrow you go without worry; if Immortal Flying Pavilion causes you trouble, I will drain all the Spiritual Energy from Immortal Flying Peak!"

Wei Wan also nodded with a smile.

Xia Qinglian calmly said: "Husband, tomorrow we will wait for you at the foot of the mountain; if things change, we will storm Immortal Flying Peak."

At this, a woman wearing a shoulder-revealing palace dress, with a jade hairpin on her head, walked over the air and gracefully saluted Qin Gengyun’s inn from afar:

"Sect Leader Qin, Saintess Xia, Fairy Yun Wu, Fairy Orchid, Imperial Tutor Si, tonight the Immortal Brew Tower invites cultivators from the Four Domains; my boss specially invites you to attend."

Then, several invitation cards flew from her hand towards the crowd.

Qin Gengyun received it, seeing the elegant style of the invitation, with an invitation speech, and at the end, a graceful signature:

Wei Ying.

Qin Gengyun cupped his hands towards the woman: "Thank you, we will certainly be there tonight."

The palace-dressed woman smiled and asked: "Sect Leader Qin can of course represent Saintess Xia, but what about Fairy Yun Wu, Fairy Orchid, and Imperial Tutor Si?"

Mo Xiaolan said: "Sect Leader Qin can represent me as well."

Yun Wu and Si Minglan nodded too.

"In that case, I thank you all on behalf of the boss; tonight, the Immortal Brew Tower awaits your arrival!"

The woman saluted again and then floated away.

"Wei Ying?"

Si Minglan sneered: "Isn’t this the wife of the man who ran away? Quite cunning, even sending an invitation requires a little probing."

The world knows Xia Qinglian and Qin Gengyun’s deep affection, but with so many women around Qin Gengyun, if Xia Qinglian were jealous, soon there would be internal strife within Qinlian Sect.

The woman intentionally asked if Qin Gengyun could represent the others, clearly testing the relationship between Xia Qinglian and Mo Xiaolan, among others.

Qin Gengyun frowned and said: "Immortal Flying Pavilion always stirs up fights among cultivators, and it seems the Immortal Brew Tower is doing the same; tonight, it may not be a good feast."

...

Immortal Flying Peak.

At the mountaintop.

A giant green pine growing from the cliff wall reached into the sky, and an old man with a childlike face and white hair was meditating on a thick tree branch.

Child Xiaohua and Luo Xiaohong came over.

"Master, Senior Sister is back."

Xiaohua paused, then added pitifully:

"Senior Sister almost hit me."

Luo Xiaohong picked up the Rainbow Short Sword, and Xiaohua cried out in fear: "Senior Sister is going to hit me again!"

"Xiaohong."

The old man spoke, and only then did Luo Xiaohong stop, angrily saying to the old man:

"Master, I don’t want to come back to the mountain yet."

The old man smiled at Luo Xiaohong: "Why?"

Luo Xiaohong said: "I’m not happy on the mountain; I have a husband, a sister, and friends down the mountain. I’m very happy there."

Xiaohua was shocked: "Senior Sister, you really married that Qin Gengyun?"

Luo Xiaohong nodded: "Yes, we even had a wedding ceremony, and at night, my sister, husband, and I sleep together. Xiaohua, come down the mountain with me; you can be my husband’s concubine too!"

"Senior Sister, I’m a boy!" Xiaohua was dumbfounded.

The old man on the Cloud-Entering Pine still wore a smiling face: "Xiaohong, you can leave the mountain."

"Great!" Luo Xiaohong was very happy, and the old man continued:

"But first, you need to complete the sect’s mission."
