Chapter 45 - The Lovestruck Fairies (1/2)

~~~~~~With Frozen Cloud Immortal Palace~~~~~~

Palace Mistress Gong Yuxian alongside a small group of Fairies were waiting for returnees from the ranking tournament.

She internally was disappointed their Frozen Cloud Immortal Palace dropped to overall third Spot in 'Four Major Sect' ranking, but same time she can understand why...

'Peak of Earth Profound...at the age of sixteen...Such a thing is unheard of...' That was not all, her younger 'daughter' explained in more detail over the jade communicator, what kind of monstrous existence Jian Feng is...

But what made her want to pull out all her hair was her successor actions!

She literally sold herself out!!!

Gong Yuxian overestimated her successor ambition, and now Jian Feng has his claws in her...

If it was a normal situation she would simply force him to give up on her, talented or not, She was a Throne, but now he is a Throne himself...

And if what Yueli said about his powers over Formations, her cultivation matters little...

And now she has to make...sacrifices...two of her fairies, which one of them is considerate her own 'daughter' will actually have a relationship with a man.

The worst of all Grand Mistress happily agreed, with few requirements...

For moment Gong Yuxian though that Grand Mistress is getting delirious from cultivating that long without breaks...

Forgetting that for a moment she saw two of her 'daughters' arriving with palace disciples.

She took a deep breath, thank heavens nothing happened to them...

”Mistress we are back...” Gong Yuxian nodded at Yueli, she instantly noticed...her youngest 'daughter' was different as well...

She is showing signs the same ones as Yuechan did.

The Palace Mistress looked at the disciples quickly as well... that moment she really wanted to find a wall and hit her head.

That man literally stole every single disciples heart which participated in this ranking tournament!

She took a deep breath and calmed herself.

”Indeed...Li'er, Chan'er, come in, we have things to discuss...” both Chu sisters nodded and followed inside.

Gong Yuxian looked at her successor as well, she saw, that this girl is beyond saving, when no one is looking at her she would space out, or blush, or even fiddle with her robes, trying to look prettier, even if that man is coming here only in few days maybe a week...

Arriving at main palace Gong Yuxian looked at two disciples Fairy Shui and Fairy Wu.

”Wushuang, Xuexin you may go and rest..” Both girls nodded and with 'yes mistress' they left towards their residence.

”You three follow me...” All three girl internally gulped down an embarrassing conversation is about to happen...

”Chan'er tell me everything what happened in the tournament...” Gong Yuxian asked her elder 'daughter' with the voice of a matriarch of a Sect.

”Yes, Mistress...” Chu Yuechan started telling everything...

The Frozen Beauty stopped at the part where they discovered Xia Qingyue upgraded Profound Veins...

”Qingyue...tell me why did you do that...” Gong Yuxian asked with a defeated voice.

Xia Qingyue who was in her own little world snapped out and came back to reality.

”...Mistress I apologise...but I can't live my life as a simple Throne or Overlord... I wish to reach realms above Monarch, and through my life, I only met such a person only once, who knows means to do that...” Gong Yuxian sighed she already can see the picture...

”Very well, I can see there is no changing your mind, and I am pleased to announce that Grand Mistress agreed to these things, if Jian Feng is to arrive at meet her in person...” Xia Qingyue eyes widened in disbelieve.

Grand Mistress agreed to her selfish actions!?

”Chan'er please continue...” Chu Yuechan nodded and continued her, story.

Gong Yuxian wanted to groan hearing how much Chu Yuechan explained Jian Feng battles in much greater detail than any other participant, even their own disciples were told in a neutral and quick way, while her eldest 'daughter's' husband-to-be was a complete 180-degree change, much longer and in more detail, even conversations Jian Feng had with Ling Yun, Chu Yuechan recited everything...

For first time Gong Yuxian saw a side of her Elder 'daughter' she never knew she had!

After hearing everything Palace Mistress noticed something weird as the battle between Xia Qingyue and Jian Feng was...weird.

”Chan'er can you explain battle between Qingyue and...Jian Feng in more detail?” Chu Yuechan mouth opened then closed, no voice is coming from her mouth.

Xia Qingyue tried to do same but...

”Mistress...we can't, we signed a contract no to spread Jian Feng secrets...” Chu Yuechan said apologetically, while Gong Yuxian was shocked that such thing even exist!

”I did not Mistress, so I will tell what happened...” Yueli said truthfully, but gazes of her elder sister and her own disciple are digging into her skull.

Chu Yueli bȧrėly controlled herself not to flinch, but she took a deep breath.

”That time Qingyue used her trump card, and froze...Jian Feng ” she said his name with some affection, Gong Yuxian internally ġrȯȧnėd. ”...Instantly, that moment he unleashed his full cultivation of Peak Earth Profound, he shattered the ice around him... then he...transformed...his transformation is nothing like I have ever seen before! his cultivation increased by five small stages Mistress! his body became golden as if he was bathed in Sword intent, and through his veins fire itself was flowing, his hair was on fire, and Silver thunder was dancing around his body...” Palace Mistress observed her younger 'daughter' closely as she spoke, at first it was in neutral Frozen Fairy voice, but as she was telling more details...it started slipping, blush started to appear around her cheeks.

Gong Yuxian couldn't take it anymore and she facepalmed.

Jian Feng is an opponent she has no means to fight and she already lost both her 'daughters' and her own successor to him! where is justice in this!?

Even now Xia Qingyue is spacing out! instead of listening to what they talking about! the girl is beyond saving!

Only Chu Yuechan is little better, as she is past this stage where is one is spacing out, no she is at the stage where she wants to drop everything and run to him, but her own responsibilities can't allow that...

Gong Yuxian knows once Grand Mistress gives all clear the girl will vanish faster than she can say anything to her...
