Chapter 1753 - 1754: Sharing Blessings Together
Qiu Xiang walked up to Lin Chen, her large fan-like hand clapped straight onto Lin Chen's shoulder.
Crack, Lin Chen felt the rock beneath his feet unexpectedly shatter.
"You must be Lin Chen, I've heard of your exploits, and I like you," Sister Qiu Xiang chuckled.
"I like you!"
This sentence clearly did not make Lin Chen faint.
People around burst into laughter, looking at Lin Chen with sympathetic expressions.
"What's so funny, when I say I like you, it's the kind of admiration heroes have for heroes," Qiu Xiang glared coldly.
The laughter halted, and the crowd looked at Sister Qiu Xiang with apprehension.
From the Evil Qi on her, one could tell, this Sister Qiu Xiang was not someone to be trifled with.
Sister Qiu Xiang scanned the crowd and said, "I apologize everyone, due to limited guest rooms, you'll have to share, just bear with it for now."
Li Feng chuckled on the side, "Brother Lin, how about we share a room tonight."
Lin Chen nodded, "Sure."
Among the group, Lin Chen had a fondness only for this Li Feng.
He had a sense that this fellow's strength was definitely extraordinary, perhaps even more mysterious than his own.
Soon, everyone else was assigned rooms by Sister Qiu Xiang.
Once settled, Sister Qiu Xiang smiled to the group, "Everyone, our Jade Lady Peak is a quiet place, so please keep noise to a minimum. If there are conflicts, hold back, and wait for the trials the day after tomorrow for a chance. Violating the ban will result in being thrown out of the mountain gate!"
She said, playfully smiling with a powerful aura radiating.
High-level Immortal Emperor, feeling Qiu Xiang's formidable presence, everyone gasped, vowing to follow the rules.
People continued along the mountain gate.
It was Lin Chen's first entry into the major sects in the fairy realm, so everything seemed novel.
Along the way, small bridges with flowing streams, floating pavilions, waterfalls hanging from cliffs, amusingly humanly beautiful scenery.
Passing a crossroads, Sister Qiu Xiang said, "Everybody, remember not to go onto the upper road, it's the area for female disciples. See the stone bridge? Beneath is Jade Dragon Pool, housing a thousand-year-cultivated green python."
"A thousand-year-cultivated green python!" Lin Chen was startled.
"Little Shuai, could the one surpassing an Immortal Emperor's peak be this green python?" Lin Chen asked.
Little Shuai nodded, "Exactly this green python."
Everyone looked towards the pool.
The pool was emerald, yet nothing appeared unusual.
Sister Qiu Xiang smiled softly, "If anyone tries crossing without permission into the female territory, consequences are severe, possibly life-threatening, so please, for everyone's sake, comply!"
Listening to Sister Qiu Xiang, everyone gasped.
The thousand-year-cultivated python, none dared provoke.
Those thinking of flirting with female disciples quickly quashed the idea.
Beauty is great, but no one wants to lose their life here.
Lin Chen and Li Feng were assigned to a lodging area halfway up the cliff.
Rooms here were made from bamboo, summer heat didn't require air conditioning, gentle cool breezes surrounded them.
Qiu Xiang smiled faintly, "The best room available, our VIP guest room. You two caught my eye, hope you're satisfied."
"Satisfied, satisfied," Lin Chen and Li Feng quickly agreed.
Rooms assigned, Sister Qiu Xiang gathered everyone again.
"Alright folks, follow me to dinner," Qiu Xiang said with a smile.
Lin Chen with others headed to the dining room, Qiu Xiang mysteriously commented, "Lin, interested in a special meal?"
"Special meal?" Lin Chen paused.
"Interested, follow me shortly," Qiu Xiang gave Lin Chen a meaningful look.
Lin Chen considered refusing, but Qiu Xiang boldly walked ahead.
Li Feng chuckled beside him, "Brother Lin, Sister Qiu Xiang seems interested in you."
Lin Chen sighed, "Best not, not my type."
Considering, Lin Chen brightened, "Brothers share blessings, we are close like brothers, let's have the meal together."
Li Feng hesitated, "Vegetarian dishes are nice."
Sister Qiu Xiang was signaling Lin Chen at the door.
Lin Chen pulled Li Feng up from his chair without a word.
The two followed Sister Qiu Xiang to the back mountain.
Sister Qiu Xiang glanced at them, "Stay close, don't fall behind, don't misstep."
Lin Chen nodded, looking at Li Feng.
Unexpectedly, Li Feng seemed unconcerned.
Sister Qiu Xiang led the jump, they followed.
Though Sister Qiu Xiang was stout, her movement technique was astonishingly fast.
Lin Chen exerted full effort to keep pace.
Lin Chen glanced back at Li Feng, surprised.
Li Feng behind, steady breath, unchanged face, clearly exerted little effort.
This fellow was no ordinary person.
They arrived at the back mountain, a grassy land.
The vast prairie felt refreshingly open.
Breezes swaying, waves of green.
Stopping, Lin Chen marveled.
"Sister Qiu Xiang, such beautiful scenery!"
Qiu Xiang smiled, "Not only scenic beauty, delicious tastes await."
Her right hand swung, sending a powerful burst.
Whoosh!
A wild rabbit struck, lay on the ground.
Qiu Xiang retrieved the rabbit, smiling, "This one's plump, I'll treat you to roasted rabbit today."
Three lit a fire, Lin Chen performed culinary skills, soon aroma wafted.
Sister Qiu Xiang sniffed, amazed.
"Kid, your rabbit smells delightful!"
Lin Chen laughed, "Of course, Sister Qiu Xiang hosts, I'll not hold back."
Li Feng revealed several bottles of fine liquor, Lin Chen noticed it was Maotai.
"Rare taste of hometown wine," Lin Chen rubbed his hands.
Li Feng chuckled, "With wine and meat, let's dine."
The trio prepared to feast, a cold voice suddenly sounded above.
"You three have nerve, daring to eat meat at Jade Lady Peak!"
