Chapter 738 - 358: The Secret of Songyang; The Clever Qing Jun
This woman’s expression was stern, yet she showed extreme respect to Daoist Miaofang.
Chen Ye speculated inwardly that this Daoist Miaofang must have an extraordinary identity.
After all.
Gu Tangyin also possessed cultivation at the late Foundation Establishment stage, and her father was a Fake Pill Great Cultivator, while her master was a significant figure in the Ruins Country.
With all these factors combined,
Even a cultivator at the ninth layer of Foundation Establishment should not logically command such courtesy from her.
Miaofang Daoist looked annoyed as he stared at Gu Tangyin, sighing:
"Aiya, you little girl, why must you force me?"
Gu Tangyin’s voice was respectful, and her posture extremely humble:
"Senior, forgive this junior for being impolite, but it is an order from my master, and I have no choice but to comply."
"Heh..."
Miaofang Daoist’s expression was somber as he sneered,
"The old man has left the mansion for decades, indulging in mountains and rivers, yet that bastard is still thinking of me? I’ve said it a thousand times, three hundred years ago, the old man swept through the sect inside and out, then searched everywhere in Songyang Cave Heaven, and still found no clues. Besides, the founder of Songyang was still alive back then; how could he have gained anything? He even angered the Songyang founder, suffered serious injuries, and endured a painful two hundred-year closed-door cultivation, ultimately falling..."
"Let alone the old man; even your mansion master wouldn’t dare to offend a Nascent Soul True Monarch... Ha, or why else would he send the old man to Songyang Cave Heaven to die?"
Songyang Cave Heaven!
Zhiwei stood beside her master, expressionless, but her heart was already in turmoil.
Fortunately, Zhiwei could control her emotions well, thus showing no flaws.
Back then.
She followed her master deep into Songyang Cave Heaven, traversing nine heavens until the Tao Stele of the Divine Path Nascent Soul, personally delving into many secrets of Songyang Cave Heaven.
She remembered very clearly.
The founder of Songyang had long since fallen, leaving only a trace of Nascent Soul, which ultimately was refined by her master to create Qingzhi...
But from the words of Miaofang Daoist.
The cultivators from Ruins Country seemed to believe that the founder of Songyang was still alive?
Moreover, to obtain some secret of Songyang Cave Heaven, they did not hesitate to offend a Nascent Soul True Monarch and sent people to scavenge Songyang Cave Heaven?
Chen Ye was also shocked.
Three hundred years ago?
This timeline was extremely subtle.
During this period,
The Xu Family from Ruins Country moved to Yan Kingdom, settling in Dragon Sleep Mountain. Influenced by Dandan Qingjun, the bloodline was thus born;
It was also in that year.
Medicine King Valley destroyed Hundred Herbs Valley, and at that time in Songyang Cave Heaven, Xu the Pharmacist of Medicine King Valley once said that a cultivator from Hundred Herbs Valley had entered Songyang Cave Heaven that year.
Furthermore, according to Little White Fox, someone once carried out a massacre in Songyang Cave Heaven, wiping out the people of the White Fox Blessed Land.
Could that person be the old man spoken of by Miaofang Daoist?
Additionally,
Hearing the words "Mansion Master," Chen Ye immediately understood Gu Tangyin’s background in Ruins Country!
She was a disciple of the Huayue Mansion in Ruins Country, which was the national mansion of Ruins Country, teeming with experts, including a Nascent Soul True Monarch!
Gu Tangyin did not take up the topic about Songyang Cave Heaven from Miaofang Daoist.
Involving secrets of a Nascent Soul True Monarch, she was unwilling to discuss further, merely casting a gentle hand gesture of "please," with a soft voice:
"Senior, be cautious in your words. Let’s get on the carriage first, so as not to keep my master waiting."
Miaofang Daoist realized he had misspoken, glaring resentfully at Chen Ye, then glancing at the remaining dishes on the stall, he finally swayed his robe and stepped onto the carriage with a displeased face:
"Alright, alright! I am just destined to toil! But let me make this clear, boy, our culinary contest isn’t over! Once I’m done, I’ll definitely come to settle it with you!"
After Daoist Miaofang boarded the carriage,
Gu Tangyin did not leave immediately.
She turned around, eyes calmly scrutinizing Chen Ye.
"Are you the leader instructor of Lingyin Sect’s party, Chen... Chen Ye?"
Gu Tangyin spoke, her voice cold and with an indifferent casualness.
"!"
The little girl was shocked, touching the veil on her face.
Eh?
She hadn’t even sensed any divine sense fluctuation! How did this woman recognize them at a glance?
Chen Ye was not surprised.
A simple disguise can’t fool someone attentive.
Since Gu Tangyin was hosting this Luoxiao Conference, she surely had information on the arriving cultivators from the Five Sects of Yan Kingdom, possibly even having them surveilled.
And he, leading three disciples, was even more conspicuous.
Chen Ye cupped his hands in greeting: "That is me. I assume you are the daughter of City Lord Gu?"
Gu Tangyin did not answer, nor did her eyes move.
She simply extended her divine sense, forcibly sweeping past Chen Ye, and praised:
"Not bad, already at the sixth layer of Foundation Establishment. No wonder you’re the leader instructor of Lingyin. This cultivation can barely be considered someone in Yan Kingdom’s cultivation realm. Even in my Huayue Mansion, you’d be an outstanding disciple."
This person...
Zhiwei’s eyelashes fluttered slightly, harboring a bit of anger.
Mind you, when Miaofang Daoist mentioned Songyang Cave Heaven earlier, Zhiwei had not been moved.
Yet seeing Gu Tangyin’s disrespect, she found it hard to hold back her anger.
This woman’s divine sense was rude, her words seemingly praising, yet subtly critical.
To compare the leader instructor of Lingyin with a disciple of her Huayue Mansion was plainly to look down on Lingyin Sect, even the whole cultivation realm of Yan Kingdom.
In her mouth, Yan Kingdom seemed like a barren wasteland, and Chen Ye was merely a slightly sturdier weed growing on this wasteland.
"Infuriating!"
The little girl got angry; she could bully her master, but others couldn’t bully him... Besides, even she hadn’t yet had the chance to bully her master!
She blinked her eyes, feigning casualness and said:
"Pretty sister, I heard you’re at the seventh layer of Foundation Establishment, one layer higher than Master! Barely considered someone in our Yan Kingdom!"
