Chapter 1039: Seeing Mei Suyao Again
After leaving the temple, Li Qiye went to another part of the city. It seemed to be quite impoverished.
It seemed to be a mortal town without anything special. Li Qiye entered a house with no one trying to stop him.
After taking the first step inside, the scene immediately changed. In this place was a vast realm with bridges and green sceneries that belonged in poems.
His intrusion was met with the eruption of several powerful auras. One of them was even of the G.o.d-Monarch level. Without a doubt, this inconspicuous little house had extremely powerful Virtuous Paragons protecting it.
“Immortal Emperor Xiu Shui is truly amazing. Not only did she establish a heavenly grotto here, she also managed to s.h.i.+eld it from the Buddhist affinity of the plateau. Such keen insight is truly admirable.” He took his time walking through this place to enjoy it fully.
The powerful auras surged; their owners wanting to attack Li Qiye. However, a voice that resembled an immortal hymn resounded: “He is a guest, do not be rude.”
Li Qiye only smiled and strolled through the place to reach a particular pavilion. It was built in the middle of a lake with a woman sitting on a stone chair. She was looking at the pretty view of the lake.
Anyone would marvel at the sight of this woman ahead. She was beautiful beyond words. It was not enough to call her a G.o.ddess.
Mei Suyao! The woman praised as a G.o.ddess in the Mortal Emperor World. She was sitting quietly with an indifferent demeanor, like a fairy detached from this mundane world. She also had this appearance in the past, but the current Mei Suyao was completely different from before.
In the past, her steps were accompanied by visual phenomena like a deity descending to this world. But now, she had returned to the origin and held a simplicity far from striking visuals and hymns of the grand dao. Nevertheless, she was still a G.o.ddess removed from the pollution of the world and was about to fuse together with nature.
Her core remained unchanged, but she now used a different att.i.tude to deal with the world, resulting in a different style.
She stood up the moment she saw Li Qiye walk into the pavilion. She looked at him and, with a slightly surprised expression while her forehead flashed with a glimmer, she inquired: “Is it you, Young n.o.ble Li?”
She was not completely sure of this either.
“Not bad, an Immortal Bone is worthy of its prestige. To be able to see the truth and communicate with true G.o.ds.” Li Qiye nodded his head and praised. He revealed his true form and freely sat down on another stone chair.
After seeing his form, Mei Suyao bowed her head gently with a respectful demeanor: “Please excuse me for not personally greeting you.”
He waved his sleeve and interrupted her: “Okay, little girl, there’s no need for c.u.mbersome formalities.”
G.o.ddess Mei Suyao was always the focus of the show regardless of the time and place. Even peerless geniuses like Jikong Wudi’s group would always show their best side in front of her. Only Li Qiye didn’t pay her any mind.
She was not angry and sat down. She poured some tea into a jade cup for him while speaking: “Please have this simple cup of tea.”
He accepted her jade cup and took a sip before commenting freely: “It seems like you have finally understood, this is Immortal Emperor Xiu Shui’s Alaya Heavenly Fragrance Dao.”
“This is thanks to you. In recent years, I was enlightened and spent time meditating before understanding the profundities within.” She spoke with sincerity: “If you didn’t wake me up from my dream, my path would have been even longer.”
Li Qiye smiled and enjoyed his tea as well as the charming beauty before him. He was relaxed and carefree; everything else became insignificant.
She didn’t speak and only quietly kept him company, pouring more tea for him in a demure and natural manner.
He closed his eyes to feel the calm rhythm. After a while, he gently nodded: “Mmm, it is this feeling. You have truly understood the core of the fragrant dao and will be able to enter the heavenly dao. This will be a grand dao that belongs to you, allowing you to eventually embark on one that is unique to yourself.”
Mei Suyao subtly smiled like an apricot bud slowly blossoming. It was quite a scene to behold. [1. Mei is apricot/plum flower.]
She was neither arrogant nor proud; everything was natural and in accordance with her will.
“May I ask the reason for your visit? This little sister is all ears.” She softly asked while pouring more tea.
Li Qiye lazily glanced over and spoke: “Girl, can you confirm that you are here for the ascension of your school’s senior?”
She answered his inquiry calmly: “I understand your skepticism. The truth is that I am indeed here for my senior’s ascension.”
