Chapter 368 - The Tour Group in the Dragon Palace (2/2)

Ma Ming is submissive now but he really wants to know where they are leading them to. Dark water bottom in the deep night… Doesn’t the whole thing seem like a ghost story?

Yuan Ye knows everything well. Among a bunch of people, Cui Wanlu is the most daring one who asks the question first.

“Big school brother, can we go down to the Dragon Palace on these stairs?”

Yuan Ye nods. Ma Ming feels very dizzy. Is “the Dragon Palace” what he just heard? Looking at Lin Luodong and Huang Weijian again, he finally understands why they asked him to send Tong Ya back first. It’s the Dragon Palace, an imaginary place in an online novel! He, Ma Ming, finally gets the chance to be a hero of the story!

Cui Wanlu takes the lead and steps on a water stair. It is smooth but not slippery.

She giggles and runs down all the way.

w.a.n.g Miao’e feels she has a headache for her daughter and pulls Fatty Cui to follow. Everyone finally reacts when hearing the conversation of this family and seeing the faint image at the bottom of the water.

“Can’t you guys come down?” Lin Luoran’s voice is distorted through the lake.

Mr. Lin and Mrs. Lin look at each other and smile. Then they walk down the stairs hand in hand.

Wei Xue also steps on these stairs carefully. After all, she is just a timid girl knowing little about the world of cultivators. Lin Luodong sees her trembling and just holds her hand without a second thought. Wei Xue blushes. She looks like a big apple in the moonlight. Lin Luodong doesn’t even notice it but evil Ma Ming winks at Huang Weijian.

Fatty is so boring. Huang Weijian pushes him a little and lets him hurry down.

Zeng Tian goes before his big school brother and hurries down himself.

Yuan Ye is a little behind. “Xi’er, can I discuss something with you?”

Li Xi’er stamps her feet, “What Xi’er? I’m not really familiar with you. Can you call me school aunt Li?”

Calling her school aunt is fine. Yuan Ye feels helpless and tells his story again. He spreads his palms, “This flying magic weapon is useless for me. Why don’t we exchange?”

Li Xi’er is very tempted by the transparent and delicate wings like dragonflies.

She puts a little Wakan in it and the wings become very gorgeous. This pair of wings clasp her waist and shoulders and it is going to fly up with just a single movement. She wants it. But unfortunately, this thing belongs to Yuan Ye. Perhaps her chance is very small to get a better magic weapon than this. Li Xi’er thinks it is such a pity but she still wants to say no. However, Yuan Ye suddenly stabs her palm with a needle and her blood drops on the flying magic weapon—it…it…it has already recognized her as its owner?

Doesn’t he just force her to take it? Li Xi’er is furious and kicks Yuan Ye for several times. She then flaps the wings and goes along the water stairs.

Yuan Ye smirks and follows her.

The stairs disappear when he disappears in the water. The moon hangs high in the night sky and only the gorgeous cruise s.h.i.+p is left on the Dongting Lake. The chef and staff have all entered a sweet dreamland.

Lin Luoran is now a tour guide waiting for them outside the hall.

She explains everything all the way. Cultivators are all strong-willed. But as an ordinary person, fatty Cui only wants to take those sacred pearls down to see if they are real.

“Is this throne made of real gold?” Ma Ming asks Huang Weijian and the latter gives him a big rolling eye as the answer.

After all, this is the place where the dragon nationality once lived and both the palace and the gate are built tall. The Dragon Palace is not crowded but looks more magnificent when the Lin family walks in it.

Li Xi’er takes Wei Xue and Cui Wanlu to explore around. After a while, they return from a side hall and Li Xi’er gets something special in her hands. It is pink organza. According to Li Xi’er, it is like a bednet removed from a large bed.

“Even if it is just a decorative bednet, maybe the Dragon Girl once used it. You can just keep it.”

The Dragon Palace is extensive and the palaces are endless. Lin Luoran stays here most of the time for self-cultivation so she has never totally explored it.

Li Xi’er always doesn’t act out of normal behavior, “Even a needle found here doesn’t belong to me. Just take it, school sister Lin!”

She puts the organza in Lin Luoran’s arms and runs away with Wei Xue and Cui Wanlu again.

Li Xi’er always has her own plans. Lin Luoran is helpless and just continues to take everyone to visit around. The Sea-view Pavilion and the garden she managed are the most popular places.

Mrs. Lin and w.a.n.g Miao’e stroll around the garden. They are so surprised when they see the huge mussel sh.e.l.l which Lin Luoran has picked up pearls out of. Fatty Cui is instigating Mr. Lin to make two of the outrageously big fishes and shrimps in the pool into food.

As for Zeng Tian, he is rus.h.i.+ng to try the Sea-view Pavilion with a few other people like Lin Luodong.

Lin Luoran is left with her chief apprentice Yuan Ye who is not new to these things. Yuan Ye coughs, “Grandmaster, it seems that they have no intention of choosing gifts.”

Gifts? what gifts? Everyone’s attention is attracted here.

Lin Luoran is exactly standing at the place where the weird and somewhat ugly tree grows.
