Chapter 491: Taiping Inn Grows and Thrives! Xiao Ran’s Mortal-World Heart-Cultivation! The Massacre of Dongyang Village!
The next morning, Li Yanchu awoke feeling refreshed and clear-headed. When he opened his eyes, it was already around ten in the morning. Whenever a major event occurred, he would take a long sleep and wake up feeling refreshed and invigorated.
He dressed, washed up, then stepped into the courtyard, breathing in the fresh air, his mood exceedingly pleasant.
I should stay away from those ghost-infested places in the future. It’s still more comfortable staying in the temple, he thought.
“Daoist Master Li.” A crisp voice sounded behind him.
Hearing the voice, Li Yanchu turned. From behind the door of one of the temple’s guest rooms peeked a young, pretty face with large, bright, watery eyes and twin ponytails. Her clothing was quite different from the style of the Central Plains, and her whole presence radiated a lively, romantic air. It was Liu Jun, the girl he’d brought back from the Liu ancestral hall.
“Morning,” Li Yanchu greeted with a smile.
“It’s not morning anymore, look how high the sun is,” Liu Jun muttered with her head lowered.
Li Yanchu paused, glanced up at the sky.
I slept that long? he thought.
Such were the perks of being a Daoist, no need for scheduled checks, clocking in, or work shifts. He was the only one living in the temple, and business wasn’t exactly booming anyway...
Rumble!
Then, a strange sound reached his ears. He instinctively glanced at Liu Jun.
