Chapter 90 Supporting the Moon
The Hall of Masters is the dwelling place of our ancestors, but it is also accompanied by dangers, both large and small.
Why do you say that?
Even if someone was a good person in life, if they are confined to this small world for too long, their lingering spirit will always try to fight back. No one is willing to just disappear like this. Good people, over time, can also become evil spirits.
Therefore, those who enter must possess a certain level of strength and composure to establish these rules.
Even though he rarely went out and spent most of his time on the mountain, Liu Qi knew all the proper rules, so he bowed and left first.
But before leaving, she asked hopefully, "Will you come to watch the game tomorrow, sister?"
"Probably, I'll go if I don't have anything else important to do."
Liu Qi's eyes brightened considerably: "Okay, I'll wait for you, sister."
After saying that, he left happily.
Liu Xingxing had originally planned to go, but she couldn't be too certain, in case something else came up and she couldn't go.
Looking at the entrance to the Grandmaster Hall not far away, Liu Xingxing shook her head, stopped thinking about anything else, and walked over unhurriedly.
As soon as Fu Yi approached the territory of the Grandmaster Hall, Liu Xingxing felt countless resentful thoughts mixed in the air, as if they were waiting for an opportunity to escape, but they could not move at all because of the array set up outside the Grandmaster Hall.
As soon as she got closer, Liu Xingxing was bombarded with seductive whispers: offering cultivation techniques, boosting her cultivation level, and making her the best in the world—all sorts of temptations, promising to grant her anything as long as she could take it out.
No wonder they don't let people with average abilities in. As long as you have something in mind, they can offer a price.
Who is visiting?
An aged, ethereal voice drifted out from within; it must be the gatekeeper of the Grandmaster Hall.
Liu Xingxing didn't waste any words and directly stated her name: "Liu Jun".
The person inside remained silent for a moment, as if surprised that it was her who had come to visit.
"Liu Jun! This blond-haired girl is actually Liu Jun!"
"Hurry, hurry, I don't want to be gone now!"
"Hmph, so what if he's Liu Jun? I've played chess with Yan Zhi before. This mere... Ah!!!"
Liu Xingxing expressionlessly reached out and grabbed at the air, followed by a scream from the void. Liu Xingxing calmly withdrew her hand.
"Noisy."
The other remnant spiritual consciousnesses scattered in panic and disappeared in a flash, and the surroundings became much quieter.
The tightly closed door opened with a "bang" from the inside shortly afterward, and a voice said, "Please make yourself, Ancestor."
Liu Xingxing walked in calmly, and the door closed behind her, as if no one had ever been there.
The remnant spirits outside are different from those inside. Although they are all in the Grandmaster Hall, not everyone can live inside to recuperate.
The remnant spirits inside are of much higher cultivation level and seniority than those outside. Most of them disdain using such despicable means to regain their lives, but quite a few have entertained the idea.
The interior was simply furnished. Apart from the empty central aisle, there were rows of bookshelves on both sides, each with a square grid. Inside each grid, a ball of light, light blue, floated, which must have been the remnants of spirits.
The walls in front and all around are adorned with portraits of the ancestors of the Xuanshan Sect.
"Oh, no wonder it's so lively outside, it turns out a big shot has arrived."
A middle-aged man's voice came from somewhere on the right. Liu Xingxing turned her head to look in that direction, without much suspicion.
"who?"
After waiting for a while, the person who spoke slowly walked out from behind the rows of shelves, his body swaying as if he could fall over at any moment.
Even from a distance, without getting close, Liu Xingxing could smell the strong odor of alcohol and other smells emanating from him, making him look exactly like a drunken beggar who had come from who-knows-where.
Judging solely from his unkempt appearance and his messy white hair that looked like it was tied in countless knots, it was no wonder that Liu Xingxing would think that way. However, considering his cultivation level, no one would think that he was just an ordinary beggar.
"you are?"
Even with her excellent eyesight, Liu Xingxing couldn't tell that this messy face matched the person with such strength in the sect.
"Oh, no respect, no respect."
Fu Yue casually wiped her face, then smoothed the hair hanging in front of her, gave a sloppy bow, and replied in a very soft voice:
"This old man, hiccup, this old man is Fuyue, greetings to the Immortal Qingjun."
Fu Yue?
Is this Fuyue?
Liu Xingxing's expression cracked. Wasn't Fu Yue described in the novel as a very dashing middle-aged man? Now you're telling me this slovenly old man is Fu Yue?!
Liu Xingxing looked at him with suspicion: "You...you..."
"Shouldn't Venerable Fuyue be cultivating in your Jade Gate Valley? Why doesn't he take some time to come out and stroll around?"
Before Liu Xingxing could speak, another voice interrupted, followed by a young-looking man carrying a fan who walked in from outside.
Then, with a smile, she bowed to Liu Xingxing: "Qingjun Immortal, this Xiang is very polite. Your appearance is even more beautiful than before."
The man spoke very frivolously, but judging from his cultivation level, oh dear, he's another one whose strength is similar to Fu Yue's.
What a day this is! Normally, we don't see a single person with the strength of the Mahayana stage, but today they're appearing one after another.
Please don't say it's because of her! =????(??? ????)
At least Fu Yue arrived here before her, so we can rule that out. Then, the one who came later…
"Hey, you dead scorpion, what brings you here? What a lucky day it is that I'm here today to see you come out of your hole."
"Go away, I told you to call me by my full name, Wangshan, when we're out and about. You old codger, you drink yourself to death every day. How disrespectful you are in front of Immortal Qingjun, aren't you, Immortal Qingjun?"
"Uh……"
Liu Xingxing looked at this guy named Wang and wondered how he suddenly turned into a jerk. Wasn't he just a dashing and talented young man a moment ago? =????(??? ????)!
Scared.
"Death……"
“Wangshan Zhi, Immortal Qingjun may not know me very well. When I came to Xuanshan Sect, you rarely showed your face.”
Wang Shan introduced himself very enthusiastically.
She had heard from a junior before that there were five Mahayana stage figures in the Xuanshan Sect, but the novel didn't mention them much. Even Fu Yue was only mentioned briefly, and she always appeared with Lu Xihan, since he was her master.
The other four characters were barely mentioned, since they weren't the focus of the story. Everything irrelevant to the protagonist was omitted, and they only appeared occasionally when the protagonist needed them.
It seems that Wang Shanzhi and Fu Yue are quite familiar with each other, and their strengths are similar, so he should be one of the Five Venerables.
"You've come to the Grandmaster Hall because you have important business to attend to?"
"No, I came here specifically to see you, Immortal." Wang Shanzhi smiled eagerly.
Liu Xingxing: ...
There's no need to be so honest.
"Oh, that's all for now. You guys chat, I'm going to find my old buddies for a drink!"
Fu Yue staggered back to where he had come from, ignoring the two people left behind.
Only he in the world would dare to treat Liu Jun so disrespectfully. Wang Shanzhi, however, was not surprised and cupped his hands to Liu Jun, saying, "That old man Fu Yue is just like that, drinking every day. Please don't be offended, Immortal."
"It doesn't matter."
She hadn't realized that this person would speak up for Yue, and she didn't have anything to blame him for.
"By the way, you said you wanted to see me, is there anything you need?"
"It's nothing, I just have one thing to say to you."
Wang Shan laughed calmly.
Uh……
So he came specifically to see this ethereal fairy?
“Since you have nothing urgent to do, but I have things to do, otherwise why would I be here in the Grandmaster Hall?”
It means you've finished looking at her, you can leave now and don't bother her.
"Oh, it was my fault for bothering you. I'll leave now. But I wonder where you live now, and if you ever need me to..."
So you can bother her all the time, right?
"Qiwu Peak."
"Oh, so that's where you live. That's not surprising. I won't bother you any further. Please make yourself at home."
Having obtained the information he wanted, Wang Shanzhi did not linger and left readily.
Now Liu Xingxing finally had some peace and quiet, but she hadn't forgotten the purpose of her visit.
With Fu Yue still in the hall, she couldn't openly look for anything, so she strolled around casually.
He had even forgotten about his own master and was still searching around. If word got out, he would probably be surrounded and wiped out by the crowd. So he could only pretend to be walking aimlessly and did not reveal his intentions.
