280 The Annual Event on the Eleventh Day of the Eleventh Month (1/2)

”Congratulations on your success in acquiring a gold level guide. Although there are already quite a lot of Western Continent people in Nine Regions, and many came from powerful families, but someone that is a better guide than Aya, I’m afraid it would be really hard to find. Before ascending the throne, she was a distinguished noblewoman. The queen has a broad vision and vast knowledge, moreover… because of her innate tendency, she has an unusual interest in treasure hunting, collection, and other aspects, which is renowned for everyone. Although she has been away from the Western Continent for nearly a century, but you don’t need someone to help you find the fashion of the holy land, but the legendary immortal treasure. As such, there’s no more suitable guide other than Aya.”

On top of Non-Phase Peak, Wang Wu sighed with emotion as she patted the shoulder of her disciple.

It was indeed not easy to persuade Aya. In fact, many years ago, she has also thought of the method that Wang Lu thought out, but unfortunately, she did not have the capital to fulfill it. Although Aya has a prejudice side in her, she was not a stupid person. Trying to deceive her using sensationalism would only provoke her displeasure.

The key problem of Aya was the way to win every war, so the most direct approach to convince her was to show the way to win every war. In the past, Wang Wu has also thought of this method, but unfortunately, she really couldn’t be like Wang Lu who fiercely patted himself on the chest and vowed to win every war, making his own life’s track record as the way to win every war.

Although at that time she has already reached Jindan Stage, with the title of number one Jindan, but her cultivation base came from earlier time’s fiasco. Thus, she really didn’t have the qualification to call herself able to win in every endeavor. Similarly, the other elders were also so.

Only Wang Lu alone, who started his debut with irresistible force, was the chosen one who could succeed in every endeavor. Only he has the qualification to boast of such a thing, has the qualification to bear the trust of Aya.

”Heh, it’s not even close.”

Wang Lu picked up his teacup, which only has a shallow layer of tea in it, and swayed it for several times. ”Aya’s trust in me is mostly on the same level as the tea in this cup. After all, she is an experienced and knowledgeable monarch, so it is impossible to persuade her in just one breath; I can only proceed gradually.”

”But somehow, she agreed to go down the mountain with you.”

”Mm, currently, right now, it is barely possible for her to survive leaving the support of this mountain’s Feng Shui line. But, it’s also limited to the bare minimum survival. Most of the time, she might not even be able to maintain her entity form. I must prove myself through many victories so that she can gradually restore the power of her soul of the brave departed. But this is not just a few days of work, therefore, for a long time, she probably can only maintain the feeble-grandma-that-needs-to-be-carried-away level of existence.”

”Speaking of this, I heard that in order to persuade her to go down the mountain, you vowed to not enter the Jindan Stage as long as her country has yet to be restored, is that right?”

Wang Lu said, ”What about it? It’s already my intention to postpone the Jindan Stage for a few years, so I just took this opportunity to raise Aya’s goodwill towards me. That girl usually can have a good conversation with anyone, but her innermost feeling is still very much closed to everyone, which makes it very difficult to raise her goodwill... Moreover, in this trip to the West, we would unavoidably have to deal with local forces. If we have a monarch with us, we can deal with them behind the scene much more conveniently.”

”That’s easy to say. Her country has been subjugated for a century, so to revive it is easier said than done.”

”That depends on what the standard of something can be called a country there, and in this, I have a bit of confidence. In fact, in my opinion, Aya is a type of person that is very easy to convince. She is very opinionated and has a strong sense of morality, which makes her very easy to manage.”

The smile on her Master grew even thicker. ”It seems like you already have a solution even to the hardest question. Then I only have one question left.”

”Sure, ask away.”

Wang Lu seemed very patient with his Master’s constant questioning. After all, his Master had provided him with a very important background information, which made him able to persuade Aya.

”When is your wedding party so that I can toast you a drink?”

”Puff!”

Wang Wu calmly launched her sword light using her primordial spirit to block the spraying tea. ”Really? You’ve been drinking that tea for so long, but only now you spurt it out? Don’t you think that’s disgusting?”

”You’re the one disgusting here! Toast a drink your ass!”

Wang Wu said with a smile, ”So you never thought about it? Although Aya’s seniority is a bit higher than you, height a bit short, figure a bit tiny, cook a bit abysmal, but you can’t deny that she’s still a rare beautiful girl. Moreover, she has vast experience, noble identity, and is powerful… The most important thing is that she has the body of the soul of the brave departed, meaning that you don’t need to worry about pregnancy, so what else is not to like about her?”

”I will remember to say these words of yours to Aya. In this mountain, she has the support of the mountain’s Feng Shui line, so she should be able to display a near Deity Stage power. I wish you good luck Master.”

”... Humph, do you think I’m afraid of you? Big deal, I’ll just go down the mountain. But seriously, you’re not a teenager anymore and could even be said to have reached adulthood, so you should carefully think about this big life’s decision.” Wang Wu lifted up the teacup to her lips and then lightly said, ”You can’t stay single forever you know? The way I see it, although there are many beautiful girls around you, the one that is really your match is perhaps only Aya. Liu Li is like your younger sister, Bai Shixuan is more like your daughter, and we don’t need to say about Zhu Shiyao…”

Wang Lu shook his head. ”Give me a break, Aya and I are not a match at all, the two of us could never have a future.” After thinking for a moment, he added, ”At most, we can only we be friends with benefits.”

Wang Wu was stunned for a moment, and then she could not help but smile. ”You’re really looking for trouble here.”
