Chapter 226 Baseless Rumor
This time, I should be able to succeed. Li Changshou looked at Exalted w.a.n.g Qing who had landed by the lake, as well as his grandmaster, Jiang Lin’er, who had come out from the straw hut. He then lowered his head to look at the Flame Of Heart Pill in his hand…
Forget it. There’s no need for that. Too much of a good thing can be bad.
Li Changshou put away the medicine pouch and stood in front of the Pill Chamber with his hands behind his back.
The two of them sat under a familiar willow tree by the lake.
Li Changshou thought for a while and gave Ling’e some instructions.
Not long after, Ling’e rode a cloud towards the lake and landed in front of her master’s straw hut. She woke Daoist Qi Yuan, who was probably cultivating, up and told him a thing or two… Qi Yuan looked at the tree and was stunned.
“They made progress so quickly?” Li Changshou and Ling’e were speechless.
Then, Qi Yuan smiled gently, his eyes filled with emotions and nostalgia.
He looked at his master, Jiang Lin’er. It was as if he was looking at… an old lady who had been alone for thousands of years and was finally going to get married today. He was extremely pleased and a little reluctant to let her go. “Master, let’s go quickly.” Ling’e grimaced. Qi Yuan immediately stroked his beard, smiled, and nodded in agreement.
After that, the master and his disciples headed to the willow tree by the lake and bowed to Jiang Lin’er and Exalted w.a.n.g Qing.
Qi Yuan said, “Master, Uncle-Master, I’ve been wanting to cultivate in the Dao of alchemy recently. I’m going to stay in the Pill Chamber.”
Jiang Lin’er suddenly understood something. She pretended to be calm and replied, but her ears were already completely red. Ling’e took out a jade token and handed it to Jiang Lin’er respectfully.
She said gently, “Grandmaster, this is the isolation array formation around your house. Senior Brother and Aunt-Master Jiu Jiu made it together.”
“Okay, got it.” When Jiang Lin’er took the jade token, her hands were trembling.
At the side, Exalted w.a.n.g Qing said warmly, “Little Yuan, I have some alchemy techniques. Do you need them?”
“I don’t need them, I don’t need them.” Qi Yuan hurriedly said, “I just wanted a sense of novelty. I’ll go now.” After saying that, Qi Yuan and Ling’e bowed again and rode a cloud towards the Pill Chamber.
Within a five-kilometer radius of the lake, Jiang Lin’er and Master Forgotten Love were left alone…
They looked at each other affectionately. He had yet to finish his sentence. “Lin’er, I recently studied a cultivation technique.”
Jiang Lin’er lowered her head and said, “Okay, what cultivation technique is it?”
“Let’s go inside. It’s not convenient to reveal it outside.”
“O-Okay…”
Jiang Lin’er’s voice was as soft as a mosquito’s. In a daze, she stood up and led the way to her straw hut.
As soon as Exalted w.a.n.g Qing stepped into the straw hut, Jiang Lin’er activated the various array formations in the straw hut and used her immortal power to set up several layers of boundaries.
He was a little fl.u.s.tered.
Li Changshou smiled calmly. How could such a small boundary be difficult for him?
Why? He had killed a few Dao Realm cultivators who were just a step away from the perfected Heaven Immortal realm.
He extended his immortal senses and realized that an even stronger boundary had appeared within the boundary. It seemed to have been set up by Exalted w.a.n.g Qing. Li Changshou was rendered speechless.
Well, he did not want to pry into people’s privacy at first. He just wanted to see how things were going. Yes, he wanted to see if they had gone the wrong way. Since they did not want him to look, he would not look.
When he saw his master and Ling’e flying over on a cloud, Li Changshou turned around and started setting up the array.
Li Changshou took out a specially-made table. The middle of the table was emptied and there was a pot placed in it. The pot was split into four segments by two pieces of metal.
Self-invented Dharma artifactFully-automatic hotpot table!
The metal pot had a Dharma treasure restriction that could keep the environment warm. It could control the size of the fire by injecting Dharma powers.
Other than that, there were also a few small-scale defensive boundaries, anti-smell restrictions, and other small designs.
After setting up the tables and chairs, Li Changshou sent a voice transmission to Xiong Lingli to instruct her to kill a few spiritual beasts that were suitable for roasting.
Then, he took out a few spirit herbs and spirit vegetables that he had prepared previously. He poured immortal spring water into the pot and began to make the soup base.
There was a joyous occasion over there. It had to be lively over here. Although it was not as grand as the wedding held at the Dragon Palace and was not as crowded as the mortal world, it still felt like a wedding… When his master and Ling’e arrived, most of the hotpot was ready.
Ling’e said happily, “Senior Brother, what new thing have you made?”
Li Changshou smiled and said, “This is called… a hot pot. I still need to make some sauce. Ling’e went to the Heaven-Breaking Peak to invite Aunt-Master Jiu Jiu over. She had been very bored recently. Let’s have a good time today. We’ll treat it as a celebration for Grandmaster and Uncle-Grandmaster.”
“Hey, I’ll go now!”
Ling’e turned around and left on a cloud. Qi Yuan shook his sleeve and smiled. “Changshou, what can I do for you?” Li Changshou hurriedly said, “Master, just sit and watch. How can I let you do spmething?”
Qi Yuan smiled and shook his head. He went to the lounge chair outside the door to rest.
Not long after, Xiong Lingli slaughtered a few spiritual beasts, cut them up and plated them. He carried dozens of kilograms of fresh spiritual beast meat and rushed to the Pill Chamber.
Moments later, Ling’e and Jiu Jiu sat on the large gourd.
However, Jiu Jiu’s senior brothers and senior sisters arrived together with her…
The Jiu Immortals had gone to the Little Qiong Peak to eat and drink while cultivating the Eight Trigrams technique.
Li Changshou took out the hotpot table as if he was performing a trick. After bowing, he arranged Jiu Wu, Jiu s.h.i.+, Jiu Lu’er, and the six other people to sit at the table next door. The Pill Chamber immediately became crowded, but it was really lively.
The relatives and friends of the two old newlyweds in the straw hut gathered there. They could be considered as witnesses of that historic moment…
Jiu Wu pulled Li Changshou’s arm and winked at him.
“Has this matter been settled? Or is it being settled now?”
Li Changshou smiled without saying anything.
To be honest, he did not dare to jump to conclusions about what those two people were doing behind closed doors…
According to common sense, the two of them should be carrying out some indescribable things.
However, Exalted w.a.n.g Qing could use an Enlightenment Manual as an immortal cultivation technique. The current situation might… develop into something uncertain.
Exalted w.a.n.g Qing’s third disciple, Jiu Ping, showed up at the Little Qiong Peak for the first time. She was a beautiful female Qi Refinement cultivator with a hint of heroic aura. She was at the peak of the Perfected Immortal realm and was not far from breaking through to the Heaven Immortal realm.
Jiu Ping smiled and said, “Old Wu, don’t ask around. Master has already activated the array. The deed must have been done.” Jiu Wu sighed. “You know our master’s character… Third Senior Sister.”
Jiu s.h.i.+ frowned slightly and said in a low voice, “I’m really worried. I wonder if Master knows what to do about this. Ah, if only I could hear the commotion inside.”
Jiu Lu’er blinked. “But we can’t… go to the corner and eavesdrop…”
Their eyes lit up. “Ahem.” Li Changshou reminded them, “Uncle-Masters, Aunt-Masters, the cultivation level of Uncle-Grandmaster w.a.n.g Qing is unfathomable. We should not be able to creep up on them without disturbing and alarming them… That would only scare them.” “I have a solution!”
Jiu Jiu suddenly stood up with her hands on her waist. “I left a voice transmission conch in Aunt-Master Jiang Lin’er’s room! I originally wanted to see if this Uncle-Master had any weaknesses so that we can counter them. I never thought that hehe… it would be useful!”
As she spoke, Jiu Jiu took out another fist-sized white-jade conch from her sleeve.
Without waiting for them to speak, she raised her hand and tapped the conch in her hand, activating the restriction.
