Chapter 114: Chapter 102 Palace of Pure Heart 1
Translator: 549690339
Cang Ming Ocean Territory
Five hundred miles south of Zhuoming City, at the heart of a vast island, a waterfall cascades down from atop a towering peak, resembling the Milky Way falling from the heavens.
Atop the misty peak, where pavilions with painted beams rise and fall, lays a fairy-like mansion.
This is where Elder Nangong Suyi, an inner disciple Elder of the Four Seas Immortal Palace, resides –
The Palace of Pure Heart!
After delivering his greetings, Xu Mu waited five days on the island before being granted permission to visit the Palace of Pure Heart.
“Such a grand face the Golden Core Stage carries!”
While surveying the environment at the peak, Xu Mu muttered in his mind.
Following a blue-robed woman who had come to receive him, they walked for a long while before stopping in front of a five-story pavilion.
“You can go in! The ancestor is inside waiting for you!”
The blue-robed woman gestured with a vacant hand and expressionless face, standing in place watching him.
“Thankyou, Senior Sister!”
Xu Mu replied with a bow, smiling.
Looking at Xu Mu impassively, the blue-robed woman didn’t respond.
Xu Mu grinned awkwardly, stepped up the blue stone stairs, and walked to the entrance of the pavilion.
“Disciple Xu Mu, here to pay respect to Elder Nangong!” Xu Mu reverently said. “Come in!”
An old and frail voice conveyed from inside the pavilion.
“Yes!”
The door creaked open on its own.
Xu Mu’s gaze flickered briefly before stepping inside.
Within the spacious hall beyond the threshold, an old hag, her face full of wrinkles and supporting herself with an ebony cane, sat on the primary chair at the upper end, watching him.
To the old hag’s left was a raven-haired woman in white, her appearance mesmerizingly beautiful, so striking it takes your breath away upon sight.
Compared to Junior Sister Bai of the Golden Core Stage at Butian Pavilion, she wasn’t inferior in the slightest.
The woman before him held the power of top-tier seduction in her natural beauty alone.
How could such a beautiful woman exist in the world?
Xu Mu was astonished.
Not daring to look too much, he walked to the center of the great hall, his head slightly bowed.
“The pill?”
The old hag cut to the chase, directly asking him.
Xu Mu brought out the best Stay Age Pill. The woman in white took a few steps towards him, reached for the pill bottle, turned around, and handed it to the old hag.
The old hag opened the pill bottle, tipped it to drop a Pill, pinched it in her skeletal fingers, and took a good look at it.
“Are you sure this is a top-grade Stay Age Pill?” the old hag said coldly.
“I wouldn’t dare deceive you!” Xu Mu hastily replied.
The old hag hesitated, then suddenly released her hold on the ebony cane and formed a spell with one hand before pointing at her forehead.
Gurgle, gurgle!
Starting from her fingertip, blood vessels as thick as silkworms began to spread throughout her entire body.
In an instant, her withered skin swelled up quickly, becoming smooth and flushed.
The old hag, who had aged terribly, had become a silver-haired beauty in the blink of an eye.
The beautiful woman in white noticed the complex expression in Xu Mu’s moon-like eyes and couldn’t help stealing a glance at him.
The transformation was quite costly. If the pill wasn’t effective, this man would undoubtedly be in for a harsh lesson.
After the transformation, the old hag immediately swallowed the Stay Age Pill, closed her eyes, and felt the changes of the pill’s power.
A moment later, she opened her eyes, revealing a glimmer of joy.
Considering the speed at which her wrinkles had reduced, it was undoubtedly a top-grade Stay Age Pill.
Upon seeing a look of joy on Nangong Suyi’s face, the woman in white heaved a sigh of relief, a smile spreading on her face.
In a split second, the whole world seemed to brighten!
Catching sight of it unintentionally, Xu Mu’s heart pounded uncontrollably.
What kind of demoness is this!!?
With shock in his heart, Xu Mu quickly turned around.
This woman is a monster – her beauty is beyond normal comprehension.
The only thing not perfect about her was the flatness of her chest.
Noticing Xu Mu’s odd behavior, Nangong Suyi tilted her head slightly. It was then she noticed the woman’s smile, quietly clearing her throat to remind the woman in white.
Regaining her senses, the woman in white quickly wiped the smile off her face.
“Speak! What do you want?”
“Junior wishes to take you as my master!”
Both Nangong Suyi and the woman in white were left startled, evidently not expecting Xu Mu to make such a request.
Nangong Suyi’s eyes flickered, and after some thought, she said, “I can agree to your request, but in return, you will need to provide me with this kind of pill regularly! Of course, I wouldn’t take advantage of you just because you’re younger!”
This was a transaction after all. Given her status, Nangong Suyi could certainly buy a top-grade Stay Age Pill, but the key was that there was no steady supply. “Disciple understands! Disciple pays my respects to Master!”
Although he had predicted that she wouldn’t refuse, Xu Mu couldn’t help but be overjoyed, and hastily stepped forward to acknowledge her as his Master.
Nangong Suyi, on the other hand, caused no fuss in accepting.
After Xu Mu finished the ceremony, Nangong Suyi flicked her sleeve, and a jade talisman flew out, landing in front of Xu Mu.
“This tier seven amulet will serve as your master’s welcome gift!”
“Thank you, Master!”
Xu Mu, unexpecting such a windfall, couldn’t help but beam with joy.
Though Xu Mu could afford a Tier Seven amulet, it wasn’t easy to find one for sale.
Indeed, a thin camel is still bigger than a horse.
Perhaps choosing Nangong Suyi as a master would prove to be a good decision.
